PROGRAM:

NAME

nbc - Compiler for LEGO Mindstorms NXT

SYNOPSIS

nbc [options] file [options]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the nbc command.

nbc is a program that compiles Not eXactly C (NXC) files or NeXT Byte Code (NBC) files
into programs that can run on the standard LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT firmware or the enhanced
NBC/NXC firmware. The nbc compiler can either save the compiler output to a file or upload
it to a LEGO Mindstorms NXT for execution. The compiler can also compile NXT Picture
files (.ric) using the text-based RICScript language. Since nbc can compile different
programming languages it uses the file extension to determine the type of code it is
compiling. NXC programs should use the .nxc file extension, NBC programs should use the
.nbc file extension, and RICScript programs should use the .rs file extension.
