(...) I think you need `dll -p0 foo.lx' and `dll -p1 bar.lx'. That syntax is working fine for me. Right now my battery meter is in slot 0 (fading fast!) and the program I'm debugging is in slot 1. --Ben (25 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I may be missing something horribly simple, but I can't seem to get the PRGM button on the RCX to change the program being executed by legOS. For instance, if I dll foo.lx -p0 dll bar.lx -p1 I can only get bar.lx (or whatever I 'dll' last) to (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Here's a short program to display the battery voltage. The get_battery_mv() interface might be useful in the kernel itself. Would it be appropriate for the kernel to turn on the low battery indicator as well? The A/D converter that the RCX uses to (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
