    memory left —Torkel Niklasson
   Is there a way to check how much memory is still available on the RCX? Torkel (24 years ago, 7-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
   
        Re: memory left —Luis Villa
     Not to the best of my knowledge, but I'll take a look later this afternoon. If you need to create more memory, take a look at kernel/config.h, and start undefining features that you don't need. None of those will make a huge difference, but they are (...) (24 years ago, 7-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
