I have the basic Linux<->RCX Infra-red comms. working using lnp calls
on the RCX and Martin Cornelius' lnpd on the Linux end. I have a few
questions about this:

Addressing:
. How does the addressing scheme work?
. Can a RCX address more than one host (via its Tower), and more than
  one program on a particular host?
. How does the RCX side set the source & destination addresses?
. Can a Host address more than one RCX?
. Can the host set its source address? If so, how?

Transmission:
. Is there a way to send reliable, sequenced data, like TCP does?

Host Programming:
. Is there a way to write simple programs on the host side that don't
need to go through the lnpd demon?

And finally, is the LNP protocol documented? If so, where can I get a
copy?

Any help appreciated.
