-- MattSpenko? - 25 Oct 2005 These are notes about what I learned at CMU. They are probably located elsewhere on the Twiki page. I am simply putting these here for my own interest.

To update the cvs server:
cvs commit filename
You can then add in a comment. Note that it uses vi.
To compile the robot code:

connect to basson
ssh username@bassoon.msl.ri.cmu.edu
cd RoboDevel/RiSE
cvs update -d
make
the code is now compiled
cvs update -d on laptop
make
./upload_sup.sh username@bassoon rise@cmurise

• There exists a companion file called a mode
• Each mode has an init, uninit, start, stop, and update database function
• many modules can exist in a mode
• a mod file has a mod parameter. They are cmd and state
• each panel in the gui corresponds to a mode
