Ralph, thanx for the great work
independently from the trouble at the list, I have some questions:
What is needed to communicate with the NXT at PC side (Linux or OSX)
Terminalemulation ?
How are files transfered to the NXT ?
XModem, ZModem, Download ASCII ?
How are programs started ?
lua < filename.lua ?
To make communication more OS-independent, what about using LuaX-Program at the
hostside ?
Thanx for some more informations 8-)
Bye
Christian
