wrote the following very simple code, and it doesnt work. can anyone spot
the problem.


void main()
{
servo_on(); /* on servo */
servo(3800); /* full left turn */
servo_off(); /* off servo */
fd(0);          /* motor 0 on */
        sleep(2.0); /* for 2 secs */
servo_on(); /* on servo */
servo(2500); /* mid position */
servo_off();
}

What is it supposed to be doing?  When you say _it_ doesn't work, what
exactly is not working?  I'm not that familiar with the routines but it
looks like you're shutting off the servos before they can move.  I also
believe once you turn off the servo it won't hold it's position any
longer.
