(...) I got brickos working on a windows box (no joy with either gentoo linux on a PC or winXP on Virtual PC for my Mac).

Does the program_run function still work in BrickOS? static void program_run(unsigned nr) I've been trying to get it to work, but it doesn't seem to do anything. If anyone has used this lately, I'd love to see what you did. Thanks Steve (20 years ago, 11-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
