(...) I think Ralph has good advice. I personally wouldn't use a graphical block building programming interface. I hate the RCX Code software that comes with the RIS. I've been using NQC under Windows NT and have been very pleased with it. A better (...) (26 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Michael, do follow Ralph's excellent advice! I took a look at MLCad and found it a truly excellent piece of software. I just wish it were available for Macs and Linux! I do not know if the Mac is recovering in Europe (I guess you live in (...) (26 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Apparently Mindfest registration ended yesterday. Did anyone notice a deadline posted at their site? I didn't and I'm upset because it took me several weeks to get approval to go and I missed the deadline by 1 day. I look forward to meeting some of (...) (26 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

legOS runs fine under the cygwin environment in NT- I finally even tried it myself :) Was there a specific problem that you were having in the porting? The cygnus install is not straightforward- I'll be the first to admit that- but if you are (...) (26 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Could somebody explain in layman's terms how the light sensor works? Thanks! Bryan (26 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

The sensor uses two semiconductor devices (that's as technical as I'll get, hopefully). One of them is light sensing and the other is light producing. The sensor works by sending out some light and then sensing how much of that light is reflected (...) (26 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Luis, The main problem is that I'm using the gnuwin32 environment instead of the cygwin (and I have lot of programs made with gnuwin32 so it's not wise either to port them to cygwin rather set up a secondary c/c++ environment). I was quite surprised (...) (26 years ago, 6-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)
