  finally! the whole fix! (was: more on the rotation sensor)  [DAT]
 
(...) I *finally* figured out why none of my attempts to fix this in the state machine were working. If you consider forward and backward motion: 0 1 2 3 0 031 213 0 3 2 1 0 3 312 130 3 The first line indicates the actual sensor transitions. The (...)

  Re: Honk if your debugging?
 
(...) That's one of the great things about legOS. You can display hex or decimal numbers easily, and the rudimentary ascii display is really very useful. I've easily saved more time debugging just because of that than I spent installing legOS in the (...) (25 years ago, 29-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Honk if your debugging?
 
I have been doing an unfortunate amount of debugging. I really miss the printf statement to send myself messages like: what am I doing here? with these variables at these levels? But I have found at least one handy substitute based on the sound (...) (25 years ago, 29-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Re: Black
 
(...) True, I was shocked at all the colors that were "white". I think part of this is due to the poor quality of the construction paper.

Luis, I noticed the HTML files for the current HowTo are generated with SGMLtools. Do you have any sources in SGML, or were those created from LaTex?

  Re: HELP - LegOS for Windows
 
Make sure there is no "SHELL=" in the environment. If this exists, GNU make will attempt to use the specified shell program. I have found the MKS Toolkit is incompatible with this port of Make.
