My intial idea is to allow for multi-file builds via some sort of project
file.  Compiling a project file will generate a make file, perform a make,
and leave behind a .lx file with the same name as the project file.

That should work. At my system, bigger projects are broken into several
source files. It is easier for me to work with them then with a huge
single source file.

You manage your projects now, I'm guessing, simply by directory structure
and the contents of your make file?  Do you put targets in your make file
which execute dll to download the .lx to the brick or do you usually perform
that step as a separate manual operation?

Any pointers toward typical make files and make file command-line
parameters, such as include paths, or library paths, etc... would be greatly
appreciated.

All the nifty BricxCC tool windows won't work, of course,

Why not? BrickOS can handle the Lego Remote Control, so it would be not
a big task to change the BricxCC side (well, I hope so, that is). And if
we get BricxCC for brickOS, why not extend brickOS to support all Bricx
features?

Right, so I don't know what BrickOS can do wrt standard firmware sort of
things.  Right now the normal "can I talk to the brick" stuff which works
with the standard firmware doesn't work with the BrickOS firmware installed
on the brick.  Presumably, if BrickOS handles the LEGO remote control then
the remote control dialog in BricxCC would work.  The other dialogs all are
very closely tied to standard firmware bytecodes so I would think it would
involve a lot of change in BrickOS to enable all that functionality.  It
would be very cool if that could occur, of course.

Thanks,

John Hansen
