Thanks,
Just to make sure, let's take an example.
Let's say that I have two RCX, named A and B. What if the program in RCX B
is waiting for a character on the instruction KEY and RCX A sends a
character, let's say '5' (ASCII 52) with 52 EMIT ? That would not work?
When I use a terminal emulator, it seems to me that I send characters one at
a time to the RCX and when the RCX echoes, it sends it back? It would be
different between two RCXs?
Thanks
Mario

| (...) What you describe would work exactly. Normally, the "outer interpreter" of pbForth waits for input using "KEY" - which of course is just a char from the IR. You can make a special word that waits for anything you like... Cheers, Ralph (22 years ago, 30-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
