Ralph, I'm getting tired of losing characters going to the RCX on the serial port because forth is busy. It is making my work more complex than it needs to be. If you are not going to do serial port interrupts I will take a shot at it if you give me (...) (24 years ago, 13-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

| | Factor upload script for user extensions

Ralph, I suggest that you factor a proceedure out of the tcl uploadScript that sends a string to the RCX. This could then be used for additional menu or tcl commands that send Forth code to the RCX. Here is a potential implementation used to power (...) (24 years ago, 13-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

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 (...)

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.
