it surprised me, since i dind't know that rcx code was text... (robolab sure
isn't text) and yes, i realize that the browser has no lego-awareness and
that a similar effect can be seen with some text editors. i still think its
cool.

yeah - i agree that it ends up taking less memory for each program, and also
makes it easier to translate into some other text-based programming
environment, like nqc, which was what i was getting at. i was really
wondering if such a thing had been attempted. :)
