There was some work that somboby did which allowed the deamon to run on Linux but the LNP program could be run under windows. U could do a (...) (22 years ago, 6-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi all, I recently downloaded winliblnp, the port by Michael Bunk of liblnp to windows. Exactly what I needed, thanks Michael. Unfortunately, I'm rather new to VC++ and I can't get it to compile.

I'd like to use an RCX in an application that would require continous operation. Would the unit overheat after some time?

I've managed to get the USB tower working for quad speed downloads under linux.
