I've finally gotten around to testing the CM unit with NQC and Linux.
Dave Baum's NQC is at

    http://www.enteract.com/~dbaum/lego/nqc/index.html

While you'll need Peter Ljungstrand's downloader for NQC to use the CM
unit

    http://www.viktoria.informatics.gu.se/~peter/lego/

Downloading the compiled files gives me the error messages

    Done!

But I'm still very happy to see that the programs do indeed function
properly!

Now, I would like to know if anybody knows how to access the functions
in CM that are (AFAIK) not in MS: The tachometers associated with the
internal motors and recognizing the different kind of sensors.  Can this
be done with NQC?

I believe the tachometers just use different source numbers (similar to how Timers and random numbers work). You should be able to define the appropriate macros similar to how Timer() is implemented in rcx.nqh. I believe there are also a few (...) (26 years ago, 6-Nov-98, to lugnet.robotics)
