If you want to write your own Create library, Andrew's link (which leads to my 2008/2009 papers on the subject) is your best bet. If you'd like to use a premade library, Garrett Sickles from Norman Advanced released a really nice library (based on my code) in July 2012 that supports autonomous Creates. You can find Garrett's code at https://github.com/normanadvanced/OpenCode .
The standard warning about other teams' code applies -- you're relying on that team to produce working code without bugs, and you're committing to fix any bugs that may come up, even though you didn't write any of the original code. That said, I believe there are several programmers at Norman Advanced who would be interested to hear about bugs, and they'd probably help you fix them if they have time. Also, Garrett's code has been in use for years, so there's a good chance that the major bugs have long since been fixed. Just be aware that there's no guarantee that the code is bug-free.

I thought CBC was what you program with.

I know. That's what I thought until Jeremy Rand mentioned it was possible to program without it.

Ok. I will test the code and see how it works out. Thanks!
