I've only just downloaded 3.3.7.10 having played with 3.3.7.7 for a week
[using a serial tower and WinXP] and Vers.10 does seem to have a problem
communicating , it sometimes cannot set a program running:The RCX shows the
recieving triangle but nothing happens.Sometimes it cannot find the brick at
all, even when it is 2 inches away (the RCX shows the black triangle though).

BTW how does one configure the preferences to get the templates to appear on a
right mouse-click? Ive looked at the preferences and fiddled about, but I have
had no joy.
3.7.7.7 is brilliant though :-)
[Im using NQC]

(...) Nearly all the dialogs in BricxCC now sport "What's This?" help. The "not entirely complete" part means that I haven't written the help text entries for every control on every dialog. Or, more accurately, I have written just a few of the help (...) (21 years ago, 11-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
