What are the technical limitations associated with doing this
with legOS 0.2.x?

   Three things, all related to the new way 0.2 manages programs:

   1) 0.2.x has a separate kernel which must be uploaded prior to
      any legOS programs, making the procedure somewhat more complex.

   2) 0.2.x program files are in a binary format rather than srecs
      which are text based, making the delivery process from the
      web page more complex.

   3) 0.2.x uses a separate program loader on the PC, so users would
      need a binary distribution of the legOS "dll" command for their
      specific system.

   So while it is indeed possible for a web-based compiler to generate
.lx files for legOS 0.2, the process is quite a bit more complex on
both the server and user ends, taking away many of the advantages of
a web-based solution.

  web-legOS back online
 
Due to a server rebuild, the web-legOS compiler at dwarfrune.com has been unavailable for some time now. I'm happy to announce that it's finally back on line. Thanks to all of you for your patience. <A HREF="(2 URLs) -SMQ Shawn Menninga (...) (23 years ago, 19-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
