(...) I tried to do a DJGPP build of binutils and it didn't work for me. I really didn't want to spend more time futzing with the tools, and I was already using Cygwin, so I used one of the precompiled toolsets. I think you are just a lazy typer, (...)

(...) Actually, lots of packages try to deal with filenames intelligently. QT, for example, has normal C++ NamingConventions, but uses lowercaseonly file names. I try to do the same. Notice how direct-sensor.h became dsensor.h in 0.2.0, as well as (...) (25 years ago, 30-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Wes and Dave, I pulled out an ancient copy of Turbo C++ 3.0 for DOS. It compiles most of the code but chokes on the >8 character file names. I might have to try Microsoft VC++ next....to make a DOS executable. I also found a DOS C Comm library (...)

(...) Wes, A good place to start with the porting is to grab the latest NQC source code from www.enteract.com/~dbaum/nqc and take a look at the family of PSerial classes in the platform directory. Create a new class (e.g. PSerial_dos) that (...) (25 years ago, 30-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

Nice picture :-) I added this to the legOS tools page. Are you going to do 0.2.1? Markus. (25 years ago, 30-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hello, legOS 0.2.1 is out. No, I'm not working full time on legOS - this is just a day's work. Apart from minor bug fixes, a new file format for user programs is introduced, along with the tools to support it. The dynamic loader is a standalone C (...)

Thanks Sergey. I was aware of Luis' fine HOWTO. I was actually trolling to see if Luis would offer a preview of the 0.2.0 version ;) I have never heard of doxygen but will grab a copy and see what that gives for documentation.
