I am not sure if there is such a wishlist... I remember there was a "call for
wishes" for RxCC...
The biggest problem with the standard firmware is the small amount of
variables. Since not every use of a variable will use all 16 bits, I think it
would be neat to include in the language a way to specify how many bits to be
used for a variable, and automatically handle all bit allocations and
operations. Right now it is rather tedious to use lots of macros and keep track
of which bit means what... I think many people will appreciate this.
Another thing to do might be introducing arrays - it's a similar handling, only
in the other direction ;-)
Of course, I know it's not the easiest problem to solve, and if Dave needs help
I can try to contribute.

| (...) I'm not really comfortable with variable-length bit allocations since this isn't something that happens in C outside of structs. But there could still be a couple "smaller" types. Right now an int is 16 bits. Perhaps a char could be 8 bits, (...) (25 years ago, 23-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
