Re: CoreChart - What do you think?

Hi all!-`o´-(internal joke)
Mandi and Gunter here, Brazilians programmers!
We have just tested the program, and liked a bit the idea...it's freakin' wild to someone who doesn't know the C language a lot...and is beginning now at FIRST...
that's all for now!
See you!
:eek:

In order to invite more teams to participate in the FIRST Robotic Competitions what is the best way of making everyone aware that eLabtronics is sponsoring FRC FIRST Robotic Competition with FREE CoreChartFR software?

Singapore already has at least two Vex teams - as a matter of fact they are visiting us (team 341) as they wait for the Delaware regional as I type this! We have been working with them for a year now - I can tell by the look in the eyes of the Singaporean kids when they test drove Miss Daisy in Atlanta that they certainly want to get into FRC!

Their Vex bot won the pilot at Nationals last year, so they're pretty bright too ;)

Strange. I am one of such students and EVERYONE i know completely hates the software - it is total garbage!

How right you are. Every time I use this software, I wish I was using Notepad to edit the ASM file directly.

Been there, done that. Almost went insane doing so. There was not a single aspect of that code that CoreChart didn't try to mangle.

That is an original screenshot from the software. No kidding.
When that error occurs, you lose ALL your saved work - sometimes CoreChart even smashes your saved work!
