(...) What I said had less to do with programming as it had to do with understanding your new Linux-based PC. Do you know how to use Linux from a command prompt?

(...) Normally people build NQC from sourcecode for Linux platforms so there has not been a binary release for Linux in the past.

Hi all, I have an ASUS eeePC, and was wondering if anyone knew of a way to get NQC onto it so I could program my RCX with it? Thanks! -Iain (15 years ago, 25-Jan-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Is there a usable version of pbForth for Mac OS X and the USB tower?

NQC: with RCX2, it has a function to display a user defined value. Is there a way to do it with RCX 1.0? How about just to display the current mail value with RCX1.0? Suggestion? Thanks in advance. --Elizabeth (17 years ago, 24-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
