  uploaded some scripts to my website
 
I've just uploaded the following scripts to (URL) I hope they're useful to somebody. If you have any suggestions, let me know. Thanks, Rik bitshift.nqh Current versions of NQC (v2.3-) do not support bitshifting with variable operands, so the (...) (24 years ago, 26-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Agenda PDA version of NQC available
 
Hi, I have setup a page at (URL) with information on using NQC on the Agenda Linux Based PDA ( (URL) ). There are cross-compile instructions, a ready to go binary for NQC, and a link to a Notepad like GUI editor for the Agenda. Right now, I use a (...)

  Re: X Windows front-end for NQC?
 
(...) Thats great! I have a working GCC cross compiler for the Agenda (A Linux Based PDA (URL) ). The little box uses standard /dev/ttySx so I suspect the porting will go well. This means I will have the tower hanging off the PDA, but I really hope (...) (24 years ago, 22-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: X Windows front-end 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). For (...) (24 years ago, 22-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  equiv. to SetRandomSeed() for firm0309?
 
Is there a way to do the equivalent to SetRandomSeed() with 1.x firmware (3.09) which--if I understand correctly--is only available for RCX2 (3.28)? Maybe some kind of low level code to set the appropriate memory address? Thanks, Rik. (24 years ago, 22-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  X Windows front-end for NQC?
 
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 (...) (24 years ago, 21-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Re: How to read variables from RCX
 
(...) The latest version of the Programmer's Guide (uploaded last night) has an extra section in the back that explains some of the technical details like direct access of data sources, etc. Dave (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: How to read variables from RCX
 
(...) Dave, First of all thank you very much, using #pragma reserve 10 works great for me. I would let you know though that although in your programming guide you tell how to reserve a storage location you do not tell how to access the reserved (...)

  Re: How to read variables from RCX
 
(...) In general, you don't have control over where the variables get placed. If necessary you can take advantage of the fact that globals are allocated consecutively starting at location 0, so in the above example, A refers to location 0. However, (...)

  Re: Strange problem with RcxCC ??
 
(...) I think RcxCC needs spirit.ocx in order to function. Spirit.ocx gets installed along with the regular mindstorms software, but there's probably a way to install it directly as well. Dave (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  How to read variables from RCX
 
It is my understanding that the RCX has 32 "spaces" for variables, I am trying to set variable A or 10 to the value of 100 and then evaluate it in an IF statement. However I am not sure how to read that variable "space" correctly. Here is what I am (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Strange problem with RcxCC ??
 
I have used RcxCC on several Win95 and WIN98 and WIN Me machines. Great. But now I need to run it on 6 machines in a library for a class. I have installed the same latest version on 3 of these machines, and they all seem to install OK, but executing (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
