I think I've discovered my hangup with the redraw capability. It is likely that it does not need a line following method.

I'm just getting into MS RIS 2.0 and started looking at some of the suggested code for line following. It's generally clear, but it looks like it's best used when a robot is placed parallel to the start of a line and on the line. I'll probably build (...) (23 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics)

What exactly needs to be done to 'upgrade' DJGPP to work with the new LegOS? Are these same changes required for cygwin? I assume the 'unix' part of this is done by the "LegOS Team", which means it works with Cygwin, but now someone (like Ed) needs (...) (23 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I have found that using proportional timeslicing works great in many situations. It is more forgiving for new developers, since a "runaway" process will not block processes of lower priority.
