The first phase of the JVM port to the RCX is complete (translating the existing 68HC11 code into C++). We are now testing that to make sure the port did not introduce bugs. The next steps (in parallel) are to finalize the RCX-specific classes and (...) (25 years ago, 21-May-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

At 2400 baud, I'm sure I could do the same. Your (...) (25 years ago, 19-May-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
