Hi, I am pretty new to the lego robotics thing (but I have been a lego maniac since birth), and have had a lot of fun tinkering with the mindstorms set that I got for Christmas. I have recently downloaded Nqc and RCX command center. While working on (...) (25 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) What operating system are you using?

Hello I've downloaded 2.1r1 src and rpm and 2.0.2 src. No matter which version I use, the results are the same: # nqc -d melody.ncq Downloading Program: Nothing else happens. I've tried specifying the port, but the result is the same. I've also (...) (25 years ago, 22-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) Typo - I meant that RcxCC uses different code than NQC, so a bug in RcxCC wouldn't necessarily indicate a bug in NQC for datalog listing. (...) From the thread I noticed you're using WinCE - sorry can't help you much there. Dave (25 years ago, 22-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

I'm thinking of putting together a package (RPM, tar.gz) containing sample NQC code. It'd probably be designed to be released under either the GPL or MPL.

(...) You can probably use NQC to read the values into a text file.
