IIRC the issue was that Task, Process and Thread were all used to represent the same item/concept in the Kernel code. After some discussion, it was decided that the word Task would be used in all cases. This improves readability, etc... (ie. Task (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Take a look at the functions ds_power_on() & ds_power_off() as defined in the dsensor.c kernel file.

ok, I have a real question. I'm interested in sending messages between RCXs using only the sensor ports. I've tested and found by switching between active and passive, signals can be sent, however, when the port is set to active, it is not powered (...)

For some silly reason, I was browsing through the BrickOS code and I noticed this: void motor_a_dir(MotorDirection dir) { dm_a.dir = dm_a_pattern[dir]; dlcd_hide(LCD_A_LEFT); dlcd_hide(LCD_A_RIGHT); if (dir == fwd || dir == brake) (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
