OK, I’ve already found part of the answer (shortly after posting, of course...).

It appears that the “nbc” executable is both the NBC and the NXC compiler. I still can’t find any documentation for how to use it, but if you invoke it with a “-help” option it will print a brief summary.

So I tried “./nbc test.nxc” (where test.nxc is a simple NXC program), and it chugged for a while, but didn’t create any output file I could find. So I added the -O option: “./nbc test.nxc -O=test.bin” (not sure what extension would be standard for a compiled NXC program, so I just made one up). This chugged for a while and generated a test.bin file.

OK, so it appears that I’m compiling NXC code, but I’m still stumped as to how I would get this onto my NXT. None of the options listed by -help seem to relate to communications with the brick, and my google-fu is not strong enough to produce the answer I seek. I need a wink or a nudge.

Thanks,

OK, NXC sounds great, but I can't for the life of me figure out where to obtain it, or how I would use it once I had it. Note that I'm on Mac OS X, so (for example) the tutorial by Daniele Benedettelli doesn't do me any good, since it only describes (...) (17 years ago, 29-Aug-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
