Hallo Dave,

for playing and programming Lego RCX I would like to use my older Macs,
a PowerBook 190cs and Macintosh IIsi. So my children could use my 9500
while I am using Legos with the smaller ones.
Also there is no chance to get ROBOLAB from Lego dacta running on a 68k
Mac. If the MacNQC will be ready it would be a nice small and quick tool
for programming the RCX with an older Macintosh.

What's about API and where could I find the general NQC documentation for
programming information? Sorry if I am too blind for finding it.

Bye
Ralf

I should add a link to the docs from the MacNQC page - sorry. The general NQC 2.0 beta test page has some documentation as well as a MPW tool version of NQC that should run on 68k macs: (URL) docs are very brief - mostly just a list of differences (...) (27 years ago, 27-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Ralf, I am running the NQC tool (via MPW) on a 8MB SE/30. I'm using System 7.1 with MPW 3.4.1 (from ETO 20). It works, although things are pretty squeezed into ram. Ray Sanders rsanders@gate.net (...) (27 years ago, 28-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)
