(...) There is an "obsoletes" tag I could set on the final release. (So nqc final obsoletes nqc-alpha and nqc-beta.) But I need to check that it works with versions -- I wouldn't want nqc final 2.2 to obsolete nqc-alpha 2.3. (25 years ago, 6-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Preliminary NQC support for RCX 2.0 is now available in NQC version 2.2a1. Its in the beta test area of the NQC site: (URL) have been a lot of changes internal to the compiler itself, and RCX 2.0 support is only partially complete at the moment, but (...)

RCX 2.0 adds firmware support for events and resource acquisitiion. The primitives are rather straight-forward. For events, one command beings event monitoring on a set of events, another stops monitoring. If a monitored event occurs, control is (...) (25 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
