I know that this isn't primarily RCX stuff, but you might mention
that mlcad and l3p can be used with wine. I find creating .dat's of my
robots very useful for documentation purposes (but then again, I keep
my .dat's and NQC sources in my local CVS archive, too, so call me an
archivation freak ;-) )

helped me a lot while deciding to buy a RIS a few months earlier ;-)
