Hi Zac, Dave Baum's NQC is excellent ... not quite the capabilities of pbForth, but *much* easier to learn. Mark Overmars' RCX-CC makes NQC even easier to use ... and best of all, both Dave and Mark have made their efforts available for use free of (...) (25 years ago, 26-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I'd recommend NQC; if you use visual basic, you'll need to go through a lot of communicating-with-the-brick and user-interface crap every time you want to make a program. With NQC, you concentrate on writing your code for the robot, and don't (...) (25 years ago, 26-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) After seeing all the cool stuff at Mindfest this weekend, I'll say this: 1. Learn about basic bot building using the graphical tools from LEGO 2. When you need more control, go to NQC 3. When you run out of variables or timers, etc go to (...) (25 years ago, 26-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

Zac, I may not understand your objectives, but I'd say that using NQC with the Rcx Command Center RcxCC is the current best choice for work that is primarily concerned with programming the Rcx and Robots. You'll find it very easy to use, and there's (...) (25 years ago, 26-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi all. I've been lurking in the shadows reading posts for a couple of weeks and now have a question of my own. I'd like to move beyond the programming capabilities of the RIS software and am trying to decide which way to go. I have VERY little (...) (25 years ago, 26-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) This is a good idea Sergey. Obvoiusly you have got a set of tools up to build the pbForth from the distribution. Does the makefile work OK for you? I might suggest that I add a word that turns the echos off or on? How does ECHO_OFF ( -- ) (...) (25 years ago, 26-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

(...) Hi! I got the precompiled tools from the LegOS page, tried with both the 'old' and the 'new' set... by the way, the Windows version works fine. Not 0.2.0, but that's not the tools' fault... thanks for all the help Vlad (25 years ago, 26-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Thanks for the plug, Jacob. I in fact have received a set of instructions for gcc 2.9.5, and began the work of integrating them into the HOWTO last night. However, I was interrupted and will not have time to finish the task tonight, so do expect gcc (...) (25 years ago, 25-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) I've compiled LegOS under RedHat 5.2 without problems. I recently upgraded to 6.0 and I still have no problems. Have you downloaded some odd version of gcc or binutils? I've experienced problems when compiling gcc 2.95, but they can (easily) (...) (25 years ago, 24-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
