| | Extending the firmware through DrawGraphic()

Having made an earlier suggestion about using file names to extend the capabilities, I've looked into it a little further and found something very useful. The 'NXTDrawPicture', or 'DrawGraphic' command can take an arbitrary array of variables. The (...) (19 years ago, 21-Feb-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
