An hour? At LEAST! They're good suggestions, though, and I'll probably try to incorporate as many of them as I can without gutting the whole program. I especially liked the idea of indicator bars for the PWMs, and lights for the relays. I'll probabbly just write a few more ActiveX controls to handle all the messy drawing stuff. The Paused PWMs staying at 127 is a know issue, but I have absolutely no idea why it does this. My only guess is that it has something to do with my thread syncronization(sp?) stuff. Anyway, I've got an MIT application to finish by Thurs, but after that I'll get back to work on some of this stuff.

As for the computerized Robot Control, codenamed RoboCon, it's coming along. As soon as I get an OI from the school, I'll begin my initial beta tests. Yes, that does mean I have the code mostly done. Again, look for an initial and very buggy release (like the first releasees of RoboEmu) by early next week.

As for a Mac OS X PBASIC IDE, I'm currently planning on writing a Linux version using gtk+, which should also compile on OS X, but I really am not that familiar with MacOS higher than 8.1. From what I've heard, though, I shouldn't even need to modify the code at all. Anyone want to confirm/disprove this?
