 | | HOWTO going down
|
|
I'm taking down the HOWTO for the next couple of weeks while I move out of my dorm and back home for the summer. When it comes back up (two weeks, three at the most) it'll be up to date (0.2.4!) and on legOS.sourceforge.net (probably /HOWTO/). Just (...)

(...) Hi all. So far, i've got the 0.2.3.1 Version running on my laptop (W95) but not on my desktop (WIN NT). Questions remaining - where do i find the 0.2.4 version?

I think that's a great idea. I find example code the easiest way for me to learn. The pbForth can be little intimidating at first, (you can't even turn off the power with the on-off button). Earlier last fall Sergey Udovenko posted some code handle (...) (24 years ago, 12-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

| | Re: New firmware and ROBOLAB
|
|
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)
