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.
