I got my Mindstorms this summer, and I've been subscribed to the list since around the same time. Since then I've been playing around extensively with NQC.

Thanks for you help Martin. I tried the uart stuff with no change except for this: From further testing I realised that the data that the IR Tower is sending is been recieved by the RCX (woohoo) even though a collision is reported for every sent (...)

Well! A kind soul pointed me to: (URL) has a neat Winamp plugin that allows the program to be controlled by the serial port. Now I just need to convince the IR tower to play nice with others. The plugin tries to open Com 2 (where my tower's plugged (...) (25 years ago, 17-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Both firmdl3 and dll should honor the environment variable RCXTTY. On Unix, you should probably set it in your .bashrc or .profile, like this: export RCXTTY="/dev/ttyS1" On Windows, you'll want to put this in your autoexec.bat: set RCXTTY=com2 Hope (...)

I'm curious because I am working on a DJGPP (32-bit DOS) port of (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Dave, How about doing the total and including it in the code listing? That way those of us that use RcxCC will be able to see it for more than a flash on the screen.
