Basically, for UNIX you cd to the directory with IC, and type "ic (...) (27 years ago, 10-Jun-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

|
|
Aloha, fellow roboticists- I've just started using IC 3.1 for all my interactive C needs (on some old 6.270 boards for a seminar I run), and there are a few differences between it and the old beta ICs I haven't figured out. The main one is that the (...) (27 years ago, 10-Jun-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi All, Has anyone dissected a PC Mouse, and interfaced it with the Handyboard, to use it as a directional and speed indicator. Any information on how the mouse works or how it can be used with the handyboard would be appreciated. Thanks Michael (27 years ago, 10-Jun-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
