  Re: Simplifying Cygwin & brickOS/leJOS
 
(...) I'm looking into the problems that have been reported to me regarding using the pre-built compiler tools & cygwin on Win98. (...) IC4, so far as I can tell, doesn't have a command-line compiler which makes it quite a bit more difficult to (...)

(...) Dear Scott, Unfortunately it is still true that Interactive C does not support the USB-tower, but I am pretty sure this will be changed with the further releases (I recently bought a serial-tower at Shop.Lego for 16.99 Euro only!). But it (...) (21 years ago, 6-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

I'm just passing the following on for everyone else to read. scott Hi Scott, I don't have posting privs to all these lugnet lists, but just want to let you know that actually IC does support encoders (rotation sensors).

  Re: Simplifying Cygwin & brickOS/leJOS
 
Hi A while ago I looked at using IC for writing programs. At the time there were 2 major turnoffs. There was no support for rotation sensors and you needed to own one of the serial infrared towers. It was easy to install and it had its own firmware. (...) (21 years ago, 5-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

Dear John, Thank you very much for the further improvement of Brixcc! I could install the package including brickOS on a Win 98 system as well as download the related firmware, but could not compile any of the demos!? Besides that: You said: "Of (...)

(...) Apparently, there are problems running on Win98 (I've heard from another person who is having similar issues). I am trying to figure them out. I'll post here once I have a definitive answer.

(...) As cool as this sounds, it's not right. :( Sorry about that. There are just the two bits (like Mark said above).
