Hello Jürgen

There was a more detailed discussion about this on
the lejos mailing list a while ago.

Thanks, I'll check that out.

No, but why not put them into a single program that switches
between diffferent behaviours?

For the same reason as lejos allows to link/upload up to 5 different
programs and the rcx has a program select button! :-)

No honestly, if I have a collection of short independent programs which
I want to combine in different ways (by picking a subset of 4 out of the
collection) and have them present on my RCX, I do not want to write a wrapper
for each arbitrary combination.

But it would be easy to write a "swapper" which always sits in program slot 1
and maybe handles the above discussed remote requests and then transfers
control to the selected program. Of course the swapper is started manually,
but thereafter I can switch remotely to any of the uploaded programs.

However, I'm glad that LeJOS allows to remotely start a progam. This was my
primary concern and the latter question was only posed for the case if that
wouldn't work.

Cheers,
Kaspar

Hi Kaspar, (...) sending it the remote control sequence for button P1 it will start the currently selected program (not necessarily number 1). There was a more detailed discussion about this on the lejos mailing list a while ago. It's like this (...) (22 years ago, 25-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
