The main programming interface is the ATLClient.exe program that supports
both LASM and MindScript (and now also both the Scout and the RCX). The new
firmware can be programmed in a number of ways:

I thought the RCXcc required spirit.ocx. Does this mean I cannot use RCXcc
with the new firmware, or use its "new features"? What would I have to do to
make RCXcc compatible with the "new features" of the new firmware? If this
is not possible (yet), what other programs similar to RCXcc are there? I
would hesitate to switch to any, as I have been using RCXcc for 3+ years.

| (...) Like Mario Ferrari said, RCXCC works fine with the new firmware and NQC 2.2 and 2.3. You just need to make some changes to the autoexec.bat. If you also make changes to the registry you will get RCXCC to show all the new commands in color and (...) (23 years ago, 26-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)
