(...) The NQC solution supports all LEGO programable bricks from the CyberMaster to the Spybot, including the RCX. The Scout, RCX, and Spybot platforms supports event monitoring (for the RCX this requires the 2.0 firmware). If you obtain NQC by (...) (18 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Elizabeth, It may be very useful to create a table, with columns for these different programming environments, and then you could have rows for all the features. That would make it easy for people to help you fill in the blanks. You may want (...) (18 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I went ahead and put together a programming tools comparison chart that attempts to leave out any subjective information. It covers only the NXT and not previous generations of LEGO MINDSTORMS products. (URL) Hansen (18 years ago, 16-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) That's a very nice page, John. I'm glad you at least went through the trouble of changing the background, before you claimed the work as your own, and posted it. Here's the page I've been working on for several days, before John copied it. (...) (18 years ago, 16-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I have no idea what you are talking about Steve. My page was not copied from yours. The information on my page was gathered completely independently. And it doesn't contain any subjective and biased information. I started on the project as (...) (18 years ago, 16-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | Comparing software
|

I get a lot of people asking what the "best" software is for the NXT. Of course, this is a complex question that depends on the user, and intended goal of the program. So, for the last several days, members of the Mindstorms Community Partners (MCP) (...) (18 years ago, 16-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.nxt, lugnet.robotics)

Thanks, Steve, that'll be a very helpful resource. Would you consider adding cost (or price range) to the matrix? Also, to me it would be easier to read if instead of having YES/NO columns for the OS (Windows, Mac, Linux), the row had OS? And the (...) (18 years ago, 16-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi Steve, (...) Some small suggestions: - PC is a hardware architecture (I have Linux running on a couple of PCs). I think you mean Microsoft Windows. - Lejos for the RCX is used quite a lot in education (mostly introductory courses to programming (...) (18 years ago, 16-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Good point. I've corrected that. (...) Hopefully, people wanting to program an NXT will be able to see LeJOS is the way to go, for Java. I don't want to try to list everyone who can use the software, but I'd like for someone that's new to the (...) (18 years ago, 16-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics)
