Ok, your right they are separate, so that if I left the second -Susb out, my
program wouldn't download via the USB tower, but would go to my other RCX via
the serial tower.

My batch-file is this:

nqc -Susb -firmfast c:\newrcx~1.lgo
nqc -Susb -TSwan -d c:\windows\desktop\lego\mains~15.nqc

Which cleary shows two -Susb's.

So maybe I should have said that because the firmware downloads correctly and
uses -Susb the same as the download program call, then because one works so
should the other.

What I can't understand though is why an accelerated firmware downloads works
when a simple program download doesn't?
