README

This is a simple script which makes connecting to an NXT robot running pbLua firmware incredibly easy.

Note: This code was written on a Mac, and assumes that the NXT will appear as /dev/tty.usbmodem* This may break on other systems, or even if you plug multiple NXTs or other USB devices into a single Mac.

If you get it working on Linux, send me a pull request. (I imagine we just need to find out what Linux calls /dev/tty.usbmodem*, and differentiate with uname)

USAGE

Copy the script to wherever you like (possibly on your $PATH). Run the script.

./nxt   # if you didn't put it in your $PATH
nxt     # if you did put it in your $PATH

I call the script nxt, and have installed it to ~/bin, which is on my $PATH. You can call it whatever you like, and put it wherever you like.
