  arbitrary motor code
 
Did anyone ever write the wrapper to allow motor_dir(motor_label x, MotorDirection dir) or some such? There was a variant of it way, way back (0.1.5?) but I don't see anything like it in the current CVS code. Anyone? Anyone? -Luis ---...--- "Going (...)

  Re: lnp communication question
 
(...) Ok, this brings up more questions :). I have never had any problems with errors when sending messages. Sometimes the message is not recieved but when it is, I have never seen any errors in the transmission. Am I missing your point? Second, (...)

  Re: IR communication PC <-> brick with NQC
 
(...) The RCX uses a special packet protocol which involes a lot of binary (non-ASCII) bytes, so controlling it with Hyperterminal won't work very well. Your best bet is to either write your own code to send the packets of the serial port or just (...) (24 years ago, 20-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Is there a compatible h8 assembler for forth words?
 
(...) A good rule. I just know I'm going to need fast so I am planning ahead. Somehow I'm usually at the bleeding edge of trying to squeeze everything possible out of limited hardware. I originally learned my Forth on a 68000 (Mac Forth on the (...) (24 years ago, 20-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  RE: Is there a compatible h8 assembler for forth words?
 
(...) No there is not. That being said, it's pretty easy to write one...if you have the time. I fiddled around with it a bit and then gave up since the GNU tools worked pretty quick. It was strictly a time/value exchange. From bitter experience, (...) (24 years ago, 19-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  Re: Is there a compatible h8 assembler for forth words?
 
(...) I don't think this is clear. I ment an assembler written in pbforth that can create assembler defined words in the RCX (24 years ago, 19-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  Is there a compatible h8 assembler for forth words?
 
I asked this once before but in the middle of an unrelated email so the question got lost. (24 years ago, 19-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

  RE: hforth register usage
 
(...) Right. If you look at the beginning of h8hforth.asm, I've abstracted the actual register names so I could move them around....here's the snippet from the file... ; The H8/300 Forth machine register usage has to be closely intertwined with ; (...)

  hforth register usage
 
Ralph, I'm trying to add an assembler word and trying to deduce register. usage. Could you verify for me please. It looks like the top cell on the stack is actually a register (r6). The second cell on the stack is pointer to by r7. This means that (...) (24 years ago, 19-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

  Re: How do I delete firmware from firmware?
 
(...) This sounds correct. In C, this is how I do it: /* Delete the firmware */ *(char *)0xffcc = 1; (*(void (**)(void))0)(); Indeed, *(void (**)(void))0) is the reset vector, whose value is 0x03ae. 0xffcc is timer 0.
