I have discovered a somewhat non-intuitive feature of NQC (in my version, at least, which is pre-2.0) The statement: var = (20 * var) / 21; gets compiled into the following: MUL var, 20 ; var = var * 20 DIV var, 21 ; var = var / 21 rather than the (...)

I'm still trying to isolate this problem (which affects NQC and presumably MacNQC). The tweak in MacNQC (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Visit www.enteract.com/~dbaum/nqc for details. The NQC release fixes a couple of minor bugs. The MacNQC release pulls in the latest NQC compiler and tweaks a couple of things. Dave Baum (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics)

I've looked at a couple of traces and it looks like the serial driver just stops receiving data after a certain point. One theory is that something happens (framing error or overflow), which then keeps the driver from relaying more information. I've (...) (25 years ago, 3-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
