  BricxCC release 3.3.4.2
 
I've just released a new version of BricxCC. This release add support for downloading non-standard firmwares (such as pbForth). I've also added support for several languages other than NQC with user customizable syntax highlighting. These languages (...) (23 years ago, 7-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: binutils?
 
(...) It has several useful things in it, but the one most important for legOS is probably the linker, ld. ROSCO (23 years ago, 7-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  binutils?
 
when i first got legOS up and running i used rcx-egcs-1.1.2-1.i386 rcx-egcs-c++-1.1.2-1.i386 rcx-binutils-2.9.5.0.22-1.i386 i'm assuming the first two are the c and c++ compilers, however what is the function of the binutils? thanks (23 years ago, 7-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  backing up programs
 
Hi, I have a couple of RCX's and was wondering if anyone has done any work on a way to transfer a program from one rcx to another in the case of a battery failure, etc. instead of replacing the rcx in the robot with the other one. thanks (23 years ago, 7-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: exponents, e^
 
i tried the lejos environment and found the exponent and trig functions worked very well. and they work with doubles. so if anyone is having trouble with using trig, log, exp functions in legOS, you might want to try lejos. plus it was easier to (...)

  Re: exponents, e^
 
(...) Only one I can think of off-hand is support for the remote control, I've been thinking about looking at that if I can get some time (though it's still only a patch in legOS, have to do something about that, too). There may be others I don't (...) (23 years ago, 6-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LeJos threads / sleep() takes too long
 
Hi Bart, (...) if you mean LISTENER_THREAD then that sounds plausible. (...) Yes, LISTENER_THREAD has maximum priority, so it runs before any threads of lower priority, even yield doesn't help. (...) Yes, I think we'll have to fix that somehow. (...) (23 years ago, 6-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  Re: ForthPad v0.9
 
I'm re-posting this message at the lugnet.robotics.rcx level in case anyone missed it. I've put together a stand-alone application which I am calling ForthPad. It is a Windows executable which should run on any version of Windows from 95 on up. It (...) (23 years ago, 6-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: ForthPad v0.9
 
(...) The firmware downloader built into BricxCC is a port of Dave Baum's NQC code to Delphi. It calculates the checksum up to a length of 0x4C00. The limit of 0xCC00 is based on the sum of length + start (where start is = 0x800). John Hansen (23 years ago, 6-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  Re: exponents, e^
 
you know i was looking at lejos, java for RCX, and it seems to have exponents, trig, etc. functions built in. any advantages legOS has over lejos i don't know about. if not, i think i may give it a whirl.... -dave (...) (23 years ago, 6-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
