Hi Folks,

I have used the RCXCC under windows for quite a while, but now I am quite
taken with my shiny new Linux install on my desktop and my Agenda linux PDA.
I searched through the archives and found Joel asking about a GUI for NQC,
but there were no responses. Has anyone worked on this at all?  Is anyone
else interested, or is this just my old windows habits dying hard?

Ultimately, I would like to see a FLTK front end for NQC that I could run on
either my desktop box or the Agenda.  Is anyone currently working on porting
NQC to the Agenda (Linux VR) or an X based front end?  If not, I could start
on it and I do not suspect it will be difficult to get the command line
version running with the tower dangling off the Agenda.  We will have to
wait for some of the IR driver code to make NQC use the internal IR, but
starting the porting process now seems like a fair idea.

Any resources, suggestions, 'Hey I'm already doing that...' would be
appriciated.

Thanks All, and esp. David for NQC!

(...) I'm not familiar with the Agenda, but if you have a gcc compiler for it, several hundred K of heap space, and basic file I/O, then the port of NQC itself generally comes down to one thing: serial interface class (platform/PSerial_xxx.cpp).
