(...) But strcat isn't implemented in legOS is it? At least I had trouble finding it when I needed it to use in a random number generator. But this was in 0.2.3, so I don't know about 0.2.4. Tobias (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  memory leak in string handling
 
This is not, as far as I know, something that is the matter with legos, but rather with my C programming skills. I'm trying to write the function strcat, but apparantly I'm losing memory somewhere. If anyone can see any apparant leak, please let me (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: battery life indicator
 
(...) All you can figure out is an estimate of the power supply voltage, which I'd guess doesn't correlate all that robustly to battery life. -Kekoa (24 years ago, 17-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  battery life indicator
 
Hello, Is there a way to find out the battery life on the RCX in legOS? I checked this group and the documentation, and I can't find this info. Thanks, Nils (24 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  legOS 0.2.4 working under WinNT 4(SP5) and Win2K
 
First, many thanks to those who have worked so hard to make this happen. And to those who kept trying to answer all of my questions while trying to install the previous versions.

  Re: rotation sensor problem, again...
 
(...) On second thought, this need not be the case. Maybe the initial sensor state starts out at whatever value it normally starts out at after bootup (probably zero), and simply never gets set (or reset) to the state indicated by looking at the (...)

  Re: rotation sensor problem, again...
 
(...) That you see values -1, 2, and 1 sounds like the current state of the rotation sensor is not considered when when the sensor is reset, like it is reset to a state of 0 when it should be reset to the current state of the sensor, like 0, 1, 2, (...)

  rotation sensor problem, again...
 
Just when you thought it was all fixed. I use the following code: ds_active(&SENSOR_2); ds_rotation_on(&SENSOR_2); ds_rotation_set(&SENSOR_2, 0); to setup a rotation sensor. Immediately after calling ds_rotation_set(), and /without moving the (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I prematurely posted an 0.2.4 version of legOS (mainly just right out of CVS) on sourceforge. I've asked Paolo and others to review it for me before we make an "official" announcement, so there isn't one yet (I'd like to post it to freshmeat and (...)
