Hi Rob ! Well, there is probably a cheaper way, that would be making the IR - communication faster through changing the program software. But I think that it's more effective to change the IR - communication by a RF - module or bluetooth, because (...) (22 years ago, 9-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics)

That seems like a very expensive solution. Isn't there a cheaper way? Also, could there be an internal solution (keeping everything inside the RCX and tower)? Rob "Mike Reddy" <mreddy@glam.ac.uk> wrote in message news:HMDouD.Dww@lugnet.com... (...) (...) (22 years ago, 9-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) BricxCC can't know for sure what compiler to use unless it can tell what type of file you are editing. It figures this out using the file extension.
