  (Asked by: username_0 on 2013-12-02)
  
  I followed the instructions on [LEGO Turing Machine](http://www.legoturingmachine.org/) and succeeded to build it. Next I've tried and failed to program it using NXT Mindstorm GUI. The site mentions a [Rascal](http://www.rascal-mpl.org/) framework, but it doesn't mention how to install it onto the NXT.
  
  I'm not so keen using Rascal, any other well documented framework will do.
  Any suggestions ?
  
  I'm using **NXT 2.0**
