| (...) If you don't want to change firmware, Dave Baum's NQC is your best bet. Check out (URL) for more info. You'll get more power using LegOS, but NQC is still quite capable. (25 years ago, 14-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics)

In some cases you can play some tricks by displaying the Watch, then setting the watch to certain values, but this only works for certain constants (and never variables). (you also (...)

| | Alternatives for NQC Event Support

| RCX 2.0 adds firmware support for events and resource acquisitiion. The primitives are rather straight-forward. For events, one command beings event monitoring on a set of events, another stops monitoring. If a monitored event occurs, control is (...) (24 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Monitoring stops when control leaves the monitor statement, so something like this: while(true) { monitor(EVENTS) { } catch { } } will miss a lot of events. You need to configure the events using (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
