| | | | I really wish I had time to maintain the docs. Heck, I wish I had time to pay with the toys. :| Unfortunately, the professor who basically gave me credit to write the docs and mess with everything has left Duke for private research in New Jersey (he (...)

But I don't have time to write or edit myself a lot - this is why it would be a good solution to just let (...) (25 years ago, 29-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| | | | | | Luis, I noticed the HTML files for the current HowTo are generated with SGMLtools. Do you have any sources in SGML, or were those created from LaTex?
