Pertec is a pretty simple interface with handshake lines. I would
imagine you shouldn't have much trouble. An FPGA may be overkill
(certainly harder to work with 5v); you may find it even easier to
just use a microcontroller. My Cipher F880 runs on just a Z80
internally, nothing fancier than that.
Pertec shield for Arduino, anyone? :-)
