Embarrassed... I am just starting, and have been using the *Mindstorms* RCX code (that's my problem); it doesn't send IR messages. Since sending that post, I have downloaded and started to look at the Gordon's Brick Command programming interface. It (...) (26 years ago, 9-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics)
