  I miss some nice features in IC 3.1...
 
Hi, I'm considering to buy IC 3.1. But when I looked at it's features I fount two nice things to be missing: 1. A build in assembler to create the .icb files 2. An option to compile C code instead of interpreting it. (I saw this very nice feature in (...) (27 years ago, 27-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Motors: Please help! Going out of my mind...
 
(...) Of all the things in a Robot, motors are in some ways the most difficult to obtain. (...) Both Brevel and Globe make such motors, they typically go for anywhere been $175 each and $500 each.

  IC 3.1
 
Is it possible to receive a trial/shareware version of IC 3.1? I don't what to go through the expense of buying the full version unless I know it will do what I need it to do. Thanks in advance. -Brad (27 years ago, 27-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Memory problems
 
I have been having big problems with the programs that I have been writing for my handy board. I currently have around 1400 lines. I expect to have about 2000 when I'm done.

  Out of memory error
 
(...) At some point, you may run out of memory on the Handyboard; however, it sounds like IC 2.8 is running out of the 640K DOS-limited memory. You might try removing drivers to get more room in the lower 640K. If you move up to IC 3.1, which is a (...) (27 years ago, 26-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: clueless programmer
 
A very simple program which will exercise the motors in this configuration is listed. The first section will put a message on the LCD then wait until the sopt button is pressed.
