| (...) Cool! (...) I had been thinking along the same lines. (...) What is the ID? Is it for framing? Is it a byte that is not currently taken up by a Lego bytecode? Do we even care about colliding with Lego's communication protocol? (...) (...) (26 years ago, 19-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| Hi Jacob, maybe you should join the legOS discussion group. lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos is available via NNTP, WWW and email from www.lugnet.com. Ah, by the way, 0.1.7 is out. Markus. (26 years ago, 19-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| Hi Lou, I'm discussing datagram networking with Jacob Barrett currently. They have some people working on it. The idea is to provide 1 byte of address space, using a per-host hostmask, just like TCP/IP uses per-net netmasks. A host with address 0x10 (...)

| Hello, legOS is an embedded OS for the LEGO Mindstorms RCX. It can be programmed in C, assembler, and some language elements of C++. Preemptive multitasking, access to all 32k RAM and low-level hardware control are some of its most prominent (...) (26 years ago, 19-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| (...) It's what I'm doing for now in my debugger work. I haven't tried it out yet, though. (...) I carefully looked at the opcodes, and found that the shortest opcodes are all 2 bytes, and hand-coded the 2 byte instruction that jumps to itself. The (...)

| (...) However, last night, I wrote a brute force (spin loop) msleep which works fine in the scheduler. I found that 800 iterations of an empty for loop with a 16 bit index comes pretty close to 1ms. Granted, I cheated a little, knowing that the (...)

| (...) Oh, you're doing stuff inside the scheduler. Yeah, msleep doesn't work too well there :-) Yes, the pauses were only so I could see what was going on. Another thing you could do is print messages out the IR port; but I'm not sure how it would (...) (26 years ago, 17-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| (...) I don't think it does. Of course, the source would answer definitively, but I also know that until I remembered to put the refreshes in there, I didn't get useful output. (...) I did that too. In my case, the lower byte was the priority (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| (...) That's the method I've used. Just be sure to put an lcd_refresh() after the cputw() call - I can't remember if cputw() does the lcd_refresh() or not. Another thing I've done is write out a number where the upper byte indicates a position in (...) (26 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
