GPL on MegaSDCart

Here's a proof of concept GPL interpreter for our little old creatiVision.
For Mega this was a challenge! First he had to put on some weight to bulk up from 8-bits to 16-bits, then he had to get a complete set of running shoes to pretend he's 3Mhz! - but after a couple of weeks on Rodent Peleton, he has finally got there!
Graphics Programming Language is the core of the TI99/4a GROM system. There is an excellent cross compiler available at https://endlos99.github.io/xdt99/
Obviously not all functions can be ported, especially those which rely on TI99/4a devices, disks etc.
Anyhoo - here is the POC, with a few games to show the intepreter in action.
As always, thanks to Scouter3D and Mega for testing on a real CV!
