Although this method may seem somewhat convoluted, it works quite well.

I would guess that it is possible to do nearly the same thing in NQC?

I'm having a hard time grasping the concept for some reason.  In Robolab do you
say "I want to write a program for the MicroScout" or do you simply have a
component that can be placed into a script written for the Scout which says
"send a VLL command to the MicroScout" or "send a VLL command to the Code
Pilot"?

If the latter then NQC already supports the MicroScout and the Code Pilot for
both the Scout and the Spybot targets (and via custom NQC headers files the
RCX).

Does Robolab support the Spybot?  If not, why not?

(...) It is the latter. (...) I've never messed w/a spybot so I can't give a definitive answer but if the spybot is controlled via VLL, then it should be supported. Tom (20 years ago, 11-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics)
