    Re: The PRGM key —Ralph Clark
   I just tried this and it has no effect. By the way, I'm using Cygwin B20 under Windows 98 with a com port IR thing, and LegOS 0.2.5. The same thing happened using WinLegOS and 0.2.3. Pressing the PRGM key has no effect in any situation - I assume it (...) (22 years ago, 7-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
   
        Re: The PRGM key —Joseph Woolley
   After making the change, do you still get "Error deleting program"? or other errors while downloading the program? Your assumption is correct, it will only switch to a program slot if there is a valid program there. I had problems sending programs (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
   
        Re: The PRGM key —Ralph Clark
   Sorry, no. That's the one difference; it no longer says error deleting program and I don't get any errors when downloading to the RCX. I always use firmdl3 -s because using just firmdl3 on its own never works for me. I still have the problem that (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
   
        Re: The PRGM key —Steve Hassenplug
     I don’t know if it makes any difference, but I always put the destination before the name of the program. Ex: “dll -p1 hello.lx” Steve (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
   
        Re: The PRGM key —Joseph Woolley
   Well, I am sorry to say that I don't have a solution for that problem. I haven't experienced this before. I am glad to hear that the program download doesn't fail anymore; and I will request that 0.2.6 contains a similar fix. Ok, another suggestion: (...)

        Re: The PRGM key - THANKS! —Ralph Clark
   I tried doing "dll -pX prog.lx" instead of "dll prog.lx -pX" and it works! Thanks. It would be good if Joe Wooley's alteration to program.c could be included in the next version of legOS because it does the trick with the "keeping alive" and "error (...)

        Re: The PRGM key - THANKS! —Joseph Woolley
     Wow! I am so glad this worked. I entered a bug for the program.c changes earlier today (on sourceforge) and will enter one for the readme change. (However, we could solve the problem by updating dll as well... to find the parameter in any location) (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
   
        Re: The PRGM key - THANKS! —Michael Obenland
   (...) Fine to hear you are up and running. (...) No, I don't think so. In fact, using dll with the right parameters does the trick. Sorting out what you have written, I think you downloaded all your programs to slot 0, your old program was deleted (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
