Found and reported a minor bug in sound generation using either Robolab 2.0 or 2.1. The bug does not happen with ROM 0309 but happens on 0326. If using two PLAY ANY NOTES in a row, a third very low tone is emitted. If a WAIT FOR is placed between (...) (24 years ago, 11-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

(...) Does RXCcc actually set the -T flag or use the default. If default then you can set the target with the environment variable. If you get really desperate you can hack nqc to ignore the -T flag and do what you want instead. I suggest more (...) (24 years ago, 9-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| | No Scout Support in RCXcc
|

I've talked to the creator of RCXcc about Scout support. This is what he had to say; Mark Overmars wrote: "This is not planned for the near future." There you have it. Sadly, from what I can gather, all we need RCXcc to do is use the -SCOUT tag (...) (24 years ago, 9-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) The datalog appears to work fine, and you still have the same amount of program/datalog space. There was a ton of unused RAM in the older firmware, so Lego was able to pack a lot of new features in without reducing the user space. Dave Baum (24 years ago, 8-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
