(...) I'd go with the flag, myself. (...) Its certainly possible for the client timer to reinsert itself - therefore the recurring timer is not strictly required. It could be left out for space reasons. I'd probably either take it out and make it (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) You are right. I found in an app that I was using that if I pressed the run / stop button, my task would be killed, and leave a dangling timer - which would usually blow the little brick into the weeds :o) I 'solved' it in a crude way by (...)

Hello everybody. I’ve been fooling around with BrickOS in the last few weeks, becoming familiar with it. BrickOS is very cool.
