Hi John, Just to let you know that I have the same version of PbForth and it works fine with BricxCC version 3.3 (Build 3.3.7.7). Would you like me to try your new version here? Bye Mario (19 years ago, 18-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

I have two RCX. I would like to use the first one to download PbForth (and other forth programs) to the second one using the infrared port. Is there a way to do this? Thanks Mario (20 years ago, 13-Nov-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
