It's fun and easy to program the Formuala with help of Flowcode. But is it possible to program the Formula with a standard C compiler?

Yes - it is possible. But make sure the code for your program is relocated to 0x800 because there is a bootloader in 0x000 to 0x7FF.

Intersting but how is that done?
I suppose the C compiler must know something about Formuala and how do I transfer the C code to Formula?

For the BoostC compiler, you must use the following linker parameter to relocate the code:
-rb 0x800
I do not know about other compilers.
The "BuggyProg.exe" program that is installed with Flowcode can be used to send programs to the buggy. This is in the same folder as the Flowcode exe.

I have got the BoostC compiler but where do I insert the code -rb 0x800 ?

You will need to add this to the "extra linker options" entry within the SourceBoost IDE.
