  Re: NQC 2.1 b2 in beta test
 
(...) I remember discussing this briefly, but I don't think we ever came up with a final "spec" for the feature. Here are the issues I forsee: 1) The IR tower times out. NQC should probably do something to keep it alive - and that "something" should (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) Thanks for the info. Set #6276 is a great looking set which I don't have.

  Re: Do you build sets you buy for parts?
 
I have purchased some sets for their parts from resellers. (Don't tell me, let me guess, some of you have, too!)

  Re: OO programing in RCX
 
(...) If I were writing NQC from scratch, I'd agree. However, several years ago I was writing a preprocessor and bison wasn't available to me, so I hand-coded the parser.
