One of the biggest problems with extending the current FW is that the NI
compiler for NXT-G/NXTToolkit is not so flexible. In particular, one can't add
new syscalls.
Here's a suggestion I would be happy to hear your ideas on - the NXT-G compiler
has a WriteIOMap function which has as an input a binary U8 array. One can
change this syscall in the FW so when the module name is left empty (not a case
I believe ever happens in any existing NXT-G blocks) the FW takes the binary
array, wraps it and create from it a new program clump. This will allow
executing syscalls and several other opcodes from NXT-G.

| (...) Can you flesh this out a bit? What do you have in mind when you say "create from it a new program clump"? The current version of the firmware limits the size of this buffer to 64 bytes. I increased that limit in my recent changes to be 800 (...) (18 years ago, 21-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
