| | | This sounds reasonable. I imagine we'll be using the EmbeddedJava API for this, as this allows us to implement only the parts of Java we need or can support in the RCX. I'm a bit disappointed with the minimal info that java.sun.com provides on what (...) (26 years ago, 7-May-99, to lugnet.robotics)
