  Re: tweaking around dlcd_show( )
 
(...) Since writing this, I have set up a LegOs build environment, so had a play with it. It doesn't seem very useful the way it is written. See my bit about it below. (...) I had a bit of a go doing this as well, and since I didn't know what the (...) (23 years ago, 27-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: tweaking around dlcd_show( )
 
(...) Nope - bit_set(0xef46,0x4) will work, but not dlcd_show(0xef46,0x4), as it needs only 1 parameter. (...) Choosing the types of the struct elements is the problem - these are passed to the h8's bset instruction. First, I tried void* & char, but (...)

  EmuLegOS support for windows
 
The subject pretty much says it all. You'll need cygwin, and then it works. There is now LNP support for EmuLegOS on windows now due to the differences in the WinLNP API and the RCX LNP API. mark (23 years ago, 26-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: tweaking around dlcd_show( )
 
(...) Ooops! I obviously wasn't looking at it properly last night (only browsing through the zip file). As 'dlcd_show' is defined as a macro that takes one parameter, but uses it twice to each of BIT_OF and BYTE_OF, which in turn both take 2 (...)

  Re: RIS2.0/legOS/linux and win98
 
(...) There are some japanese guys that did USB support for NQC under windows, it's rather simple (essentially open a device with a particular name). Under Linux it is just not clear how easy it is until somebody tries. (...) Here (France & Germany) (...) (23 years ago, 25-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: tweaking around dlcd_show( )
 
Thanks Martin, I tried this too but it doesn't work : progress.c:27: macro `dlcd_show' used with too many (2) args progress.c:27: macro `BIT_OF' used with just one arg progress.c:27: macro `BYTE_OF' used with just one arg The hint seems to fit two (...)

  Re: Who can write a send_msg() and get_msg() in legOS for us?
 
I found there were three commands as below and a demo program tm-and-ir.c for standard IR communication before legOS 0.1.7, but now they exist no longer in legOS 0.2.4, I think these commands are very useful, can you reuse them, Luis? size_t (...)

  Who can write a send_msg() and get_msg() in legOS for us?
 
Can you write a pair of function to support standard firmware IR communiation between RCX and RCX or Remote control? They are send_msg() and get_msg(), it is easy to communicate between NQC and legOS, so we can use NQC if the program is very simple (...)

  Re: tweaking around dlcd_show( )
 
Hi, I haven't used LegOs (yet), but looking at the dlcd_show function, it expects 2 parameters. The defines are also for 2 parameters, so you would need to define and use it like this: int progressPattern[PATT...S_NB][2]={ {LCD_4_BOTL} , (...)

  tweaking around dlcd_show( )
 
Hi all legOS users, need help about dlcd_* utilities I'd like to display on the lcd a sequence of digits: something like : dlcd_show (LCD_4_BOTL); lcd_refresh(); msleep(250); lcd_clear(); dlcd_show (LCD_4_TOPL); lcd_refresh(); msleep(250); (...)

  RE: Love the new Music capability with the new firmware!
 
(...) That IS cool. Now the problem is to figure out if this new feature was implemented using the exisiting ROM or if the entry points have changed. Has anybody tried to run legOS or pbForth on the new RCX 2.0? (Maybe I can use this as an excuse to (...)

  Re: How to communication between RCXs without PC?
 
You know I had finished my control program in NQC, it is not so simple, but I need to control LEGO Train in smooth speed, NQC is limitation, so I want to use legOS for one of RCX, could you give me some hints for sending/receiving NQC style message (...)

  Re: How to communication between RCXs without PC?
 
(...) As far as I know, it is not possible to communicate between legOS and NQC using LNP. I think it would be possible to directly drive the IR port from your own code to send and recieve NQC-style communications, but the ability isn't built into (...)
