Looking for Algorithms for running a striaght line

[maniakrs]

Hello

I'm working on a robot team using the 68HC12 board.. We have some
encoders hooked up to one of the A2D ports for movement.  Does anyone
have any Algorithms that might help with steering and running the bot
in a straight line.  I am curious to see if anyone was written
anything that would be willing to share what they know.  Even a point
in the right direction would help as well.

Also we are using a C compiler to build the program.

Thanks.

You might do better to ask at a robotics group.
 
I think the old Microbot software is available, but it was 68HC11 and assembler (I think).
