I'd like to announce the availability of an early trial version of a GUI for pbForth. It's written in TclTk, a free scripting language, but that's transparent to the user. (URL) The GUI runs under Windows and Linux, and as soon as I can find a (...) (24 years ago, 16-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I'm not suggesting that it isn't hard. Compared to native debugging with printf and gdb in an emacs window it is quite hard. It's just that you build up a bag of tricks after a while or take up application development instead. :-) One of the (...) (24 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

(...) It's amazing, but I get all kinds of comments on how it's impossible to debug systems like the RCX brick. I guess if you're used to deeply embedded systems, figuring out how to let it tell you what's going on is a big part of the magic... (...) (24 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

Hello Tobias, (...) Why do you think there's only 1 byte that can be sent? If your data buffer is longer, bytes are sent one-by-one serially in a packet... (...) look into lnp.c and you will see that both lnp_integrity_xxx and lnp_addressing_xxx are (...) (24 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Actually that's what I was intending but I couldn't remember the words at my keyboard. To make debugging easier I will use parallel words that can be merged in later. I was going to use the following debugging strategy: Put the isr init in a (...) (24 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

Hi! When using lnp_integrity_write(&data, length), what is the length argument used for? The data can only be one byte long if I understand it correctly. Can I use the length argument to send an additional byte of information? Is there anyway I can (...) (24 years ago, 14-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Sounds good Steve, see notes below for some pointers... (...) Absolutely. All we have to do is enable the interrupts on the receiver throw the chars into a buffer. I'd keep the standard FORTH words that already exist so less system source (...) (24 years ago, 14-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
