  The answer to a previous question pointed to "custom blocks for NXT". I am not talking about creating "My Blocks" in the "Custom Palette", but code blocks that can be imported into LEGO Mindstorms NXT.
  
  Are there tools to code these custom blocks available to the public? Where can I get them?
