By "abnormal" I guess I really mean "mis-matched" foot sizes. Some people have feet that are so different in size that they need to wear vastly different sized shoes on each foot. (ie: Left size 8, right size 13.) Shoe stores will not break up two (...) (26 years ago, 29-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Wes, A good place to start with the porting is to grab the latest NQC source code from www.enteract.com/~dbaum/nqc and take a look at the family of PSerial classes in the platform directory. Create a new class (e.g. PSerial_dos) that (...) (26 years ago, 30-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
