  Help request regarding alternative programming systems
 
Allow me to request a little help from all the rcx experts out there. I've purchased Mindstorms set and the infrared remote control. As near as I can tell, I can not do what I want with the mindstorms software, so I'm hoping one of the alternative (...) (27 years ago, 19-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)

  Re: rcxhttpd?
 
(...) Since the RCX has essentially a serial interface to the outside world, you would need to encode and decode the HTTP requests and responses into a serial-based protocol. If you actually wanted the RCX to be plug-and-play compatible with (...) (27 years ago, 19-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: rcxhttpd?
 
(...) Don't forget 'finger'. There's already provisions for vending machines, so it's not much of a stretch. :) (27 years ago, 17-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  rcxhttpd?
 
(OK, I know this sounds perverse, but heck, some high-end printers these days are coming with built-in webservers for configuration, so it's not that perverse.) Has anyone written an HTTP daemon for the RCX? I mean a scaled-down version of httpd (...) (27 years ago, 17-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Help with 9738 LEGO Mindstorms Remote Control
 
Thanks Dave. I hadn't downloaded the firmware yet.  Originally, I was simply hoping to use the remote control and the rcx to drive my trains.  So I didn't bother to install the software. Now I know. Again, Thank you. Ben In lugnet.robotics.rcx, Dave (...) (27 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: is IR considered broken?
 
Yes I would be interested in seeing the libRcx implementation of the IR functions. thanks, Mark (...) (27 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  application termination
 
Hi, what is the magic in LegOS to quit the application so that it can be restarted again? In some demos it works, but the same mechanism (i.e. 1 stopper process that kills the other on [run] button) quits the program, but the display says some (...)

  Re: is IR considered broken?
 
(...) I have working IR code, but it does not work with LegOS. It works with that "custom, as-yet-unreleased version of Librcx" I mention every so often. It probably wouldn't take much to port it to LegOS. Changes would be: - modify hook to get a (...) (27 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
