I was thinking of the same sort of thing for NQC too. However that means I
would have to implement NQC on the Palm as well. For the Scout I would have
add the Scout tool translator to the Palm. Another possiblity is the pollm
command. I've still to play with that command but I wonder if it is possible
to get the binary image of the program off the Scout. Then we could save
that to the Palm.

Also, I'd have to check the copyright notice again, but I think Lego
specifically said that I can't implement the Scout Tool on another platform.

Mike,

It looks like you are well on your way to figuring out those byte codes.

I thought of a handy app for the Palm; a Scout LASM program downloader.
It would be nice to be able to store my favorite .asm files on the Palm
and be able to transfer them to the scout when away from a desktop
computer. It would be easy to use if the .asm text file was copied to a
Memo Pad file using the Palm desktop program and then the Palm app would
look in the Memo Pad database for files to choose from. The .asm files
would need to start with something like "file://***SCOUTASM***" for the • app
to know what to look for. Anyway, just an idea.

This seems to be a contradiction because the SDK includes the program (...) (25 years ago, 24-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.scout)
