You have the definition of phony() nested inside the definition
of start(). I don't know what ANSI C and/or C++ let you do, but this is
invalid IC. You need something like:
long time;
void start()
{
phony();
}
void phony()
{
while (digital(2)==1)
{
time = mseconds();
}
}
Of course, somewhere you will need a main() to call start().

| Thanks for all the helpful device but the darned thing still does not work. I have created a simplified program to try to figure out what I am doing wrong. Here it is: /* A simplified program to figure out what is wrong */ long time; void start() { (...) (25 years ago, 13-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
