You can sometimes fake it by sending "bad" codes in -raw mode with verbose
mode turned on (-v) and a long timeout (-t).
For example, to examine the Lego remote codes I kept typing this:
nqc -v -t 2000 -raw 10
Since I didn't have an RCX around it would keep trying (2 seconds between
tries) to send a "ping". After each send it would dump out everything it
heard. Not perfect, but enough for some hacking.
I'll try to add something more suitable for the next NQC release.
