(...) I can't duplicate this behavior. I think it might have something to do with those pesky DSK files (maybe?). Can you check to see if the files listed in your recent file list have associated desktop files (*.DSK)? Thanks, John Hansen (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

hi John, everything seems to work fine now, I couldn't get it slowed down. A funny effect, everytime you start BricxCC, it sizes to the previous size, ok. Now opening a file (from the recent file list), BricxCC fills the whole screen. Thanks for the (...) (23 years ago, 17-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

I am hesitant to announce that I've uploaded a new version of BricxCC to my website. This release comes in a full-featured install executable. As a result the download is a bit larger (i.e., 1.6MB). This release hopefully will fix the problems some (...) (23 years ago, 16-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
