History  Of  Walt's Robotics Page

5/18/01: I released ADShow.c.  You can get it at my downloads page.  I also developed an HC11 file manager.  You can read about it and download the source code at www.chipcenter.com/circuitcellar


3/21/01: I released COMPILE Version 1.2!  You can download it at my downloads page.  I also release a new C file called ITOA.C.  This file converts a number into a string of characters.  Then the string is printed to the SCI.


2/21/01: I added a page that describes COMPILE v.1.2.  It lists all the new features, as well as some screen shots (screen shots are about 8Kb each).  I also got all the pictures of my robots working.


12/16/00: I released WCC11 v.1.1!  You can get it at my downloads page.


10/20/00: Another feature of WCC11 v.1.1, you can now list a bunch of vars on one line.  For example: int a,b,c,d,e;.  Also I'm planning on releasing this version of WCC11 either this month, or the next!  I also added a new link to "My Favorite Links" page, and fixed another link.


9/12/00: Even more new features of WCC11 v.1.1... support for the #include_asm command, and I also fixed up the int32 support for support of numbers up to 0xFFFFFFFF instead of 0xFFFF7FFF.  This fix also makes it easier to use! I also fixed a few other bugs in the compiler. Also I added SCI.C to my downloads page... this file has procedures for using the SCI on an HC11.  And lastly, I added info on two more robots I'm making, and fixed up the "My Robots" page.


7/03/00: I listed a few new features of WCC11 v.1.1.  The new features are support for nested includes, nested if()'s, and an asm_direct() command!  Also added a new link to my links page...the link is all about the HERO robots!


6/03/00: I released COMPILE v.1.1.  This one has support for multiple projects, and has a lot of other useful features.


5/31/00: Added a few new links to the links page.  Also got some troubleshooting info for WCC11 Version 1.0a.


5/03/00: Added info on WCC11 Version 1.1.  Also added info on Gandalf and BumbleBee.  Added BitTest.C to the downloads page, and talked about COMPILE v.1.1.


4/12/00: Added a picture of the UI for WCC11 for Windows.  Also added two new links that I got via e-mail.  And I fixed this page up so that most recent updates are on top, and not on the bottom.


3/22/00: I released WCC11 Version 1.0a (my freeware C-based Compiler for HC11's) download it at my Downloads page!


3/10/00: Updated the WCC11 v.1.0a updates page. Next update I should have a few more links at the "My Favorite Links" page.


2/14/00:  Got some cool new 3D graphics in.  Also added a link to another hobby of mine (besides robotics, of course) which is game programming.


1/18/00:  Fixed the MHM manual and included it in the ZIP.  Please, if you already downloaded MHM, do so again as it contains a vital manual change!!!


1/14/00:  Moved all the downloads to Downloads Page, and added a "New Stuff..." to talk about my recent projects.  I also released MHM Version 1.0.


11/28/99:  Changed a few things around so that the WEB site would download faster, made the index into an "other links" to save room for more text and pictures.  I also added some more links to the "My Favorites Links" page, and added a small troubleshooter for WCC11.


11/10/99:  Fixed a few misspelled links on the Favorite Sites page, added an index, added a page for the ports of the HC11, also added a page for using the A/D converter, and a few other odds and ends.


11/05/99: First put up WEB site, included WCC11 v.1.0, make a 40KHz oscillator, and learn how to program in WCC11 links.
