Can anyone tell me if this seems correct?

I think I'm having a problem with my LNP handler.  When I run it, the IR segment
on the other RCX lights up, like it's getting a message.  But, my BrickOS RCX
does nothing.

AFAIK there is no way to receive Lego-Messages, except by editing lnp.c and adding
that by hand.  The only Lego-Messages that brickos knows of, are those from the
remote control and the "send message" opcode (0xf7).  It may be worthwhile to add
general LEGO-Message support to lnp.c together with an lnp_lego_handler...

However, I wonder why your brickOS RCX doesn't indicate that it receives a message.

Hi. (...) That would be a fun state machine to set up... ;-) (...) It only does so when it receives opcodes between 0xf0 - 0xf7 or a standard firmware message (0x55). Of the first eight, only 0xf0 and 0xf1 currently require further action, with 0xf0 (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
