I didn't want to have to write my programs for LegOS and then type a ton of
commands only to find that I made a mistake. So I downloaded UltraEdit-32 9.
It allows unix type file to be saved
(This will replace the carriage return and line feed combinations to a line
feed only.)
and it allows macros to be run; therefore, all I need to do is write my
programs,
press CTRL + SHIFT + 1 to compile, then press CTRL + SHIFT + 2 and my
program is downloaded. (It helps that I wrote a batch file to help UltraEdit
along)
I think this could almost be concidered as a GUI. What do you think?

| (...) I'm running legOS from Linux, so I don't know Ultraedit. But if its suitable for your needs and free it seems to be a good choice. Regards, Michael (22 years ago, 16-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
