Hy I'm the author of MLCad and I'm dreaming a bit now. My idea was to write
a program which is able to program the CyberMaster and the RCX brick.
To construct the program I though I might use something like building blocks
one for each possible operation, statement... (generally similar to Lego's
Invention System Software).
But it would be able to load the program to a CyberMaster brick as well and
maybe the program is a little bit more handy than Lego's software.


I have started thinking about such a program many times since I and the kids
(9 and 12) got our CyberMaster kit, but nothing has come out of it yet :-(

I think it would be a good thing for kids, especially non-'English fluent', as
ordinary programming languages (NQC etc.) builds on the English language,
thereby adding an extra obstacle to learning programming.

I find it hard to believe that any 'real programmer' would use it though, but
who cares about them :-)

I'm quite interested in such a project, and would really want to have the time
to take part in it.
