It's not that I don't want to.  I'd love to explain it, but it's just not
simple.

First, I suggest you direct your questions to John Hanson (controller of
BricxCC)  He sounds like he knows what he's talking about.

of all the sample c code for the RCXen out there, they all have these
stupid #includes[H.].....

OK, I can find a directory of includes.  BUT when i use BRICXCC to
compile the c, it never sees the includes and gives me (and bruce
errors.)

Second, it sounds like the path is not set correctly, somewhere.  Look in the
options in BricxCC and see if there's an "Include path" or something like that.
Tell BricxCC where to find the include files.  (they are in the include
directory)

and OH MY GOD, look at how many entries Steve H has in there asking
about questions for his "software"

That's why I can't answer your questions.  I just don't really know much.

If it makes you feel any better, I think setting up BrickOS is the hard part.
Once you get it set-up, and can compile programs, it's all easy after that.
(assuming you can write a program in C, which is not my first language, as you
may notice from all my questions)

The first program you want to attempt to compile is the "hello world" program.
You shouldn't need to change much to get it to work.

Good luck
Steve

UGH!!!! what a night. I was up VERY LATE helping bruce put BrickOS on his brick. (start with the left leg of the flame suit, next the right leg, ok, now the pyro jacket, and next, the special pyro gel.) I had not done it up until now, but with (...)
