Can anybody make a program for the 83+ (without exhausting the memory) that displays icons on the graph screen (lists ,variables ,applications...) such that you can edit variables and programs. Include an icon-DOS-that allows various features including running/editing programs, (un)archiving, (un)locking,(un)hiding, calc.info... and Calc. which acts like the home screen of the calculator without including the other items (as described above) This is probably not possible but if it is, please try to make/find it. Thanks.

>>probably not possible

It wouldn't be easy, but it would DEFINITELY be possible in assembly....without even using the graph screen!

I meant that it is probably not possible without using up all the memory, though I may still be wrong. Though I am not familiar with applications, I think it would be easier to write an application for it. That way it could install it on to the calc and use it all the time(This is what I would prefer anyway).

I write assembly for the 83+, and I think it would be possible to do a non-app that would be 5-9 KB that would do the things you're talking about.

If at all possible, I would prefer the app, even if it does take up twice as much memory.

do it in assembly, then use an appbuilder like wabbitsign.

Once again, as I see this was either deleted or was not posted, I did this in 83+ BASIC without the file management stuff and without the DOS. I will rewrite the old program and put in any system utilities that I may find in the archives.

<note>
I can write Z80 freeware but not 68K freeware as OAHAT (the nonprofit that I work for) markets 68K programs.
</note>

I looked in the 83+ archives and found some promising stuff. Coming Soon!

Sounds great, but if you want it to be taken seriously, PLEASE write an assembly version yourself or get someone else to write it.

basicbuilder

Instead of makeing those crappy basic "windows" things, someone should <b>REALLY</b> make a GUI for mirageOS that does that (currently i use the "command prompt" because noone else knows how to use it)

Whaa...

Even though it's stored as an app, it will still be executed as a BASIC program, at the speed of a BASIC program. Just write it in assembly.

Look in my profile. I don't know Z80 ASM.

Also, if anyone knows why I receive a message saying "Unable to transfer files to your TI-connected device. Please verify that the cable is connected properly and the communication settings are correct." when trying to transfer apps? Yesterday it worked fine, and I did not remove the cable from the computer since then. It must be the calculator, however it was connected perfectly. Please help!

Try it a second time. Sometimes my cable does that temporarily.
If it still doesn't work, maybe there's something wrong with the plug in your calc-I have heard of instances of the solder joints in the plug coming apart.

Were you using TI-Graph Link? I hate it, I always use FastLink, it's so much better sometimes...

I have also had the same kind of problem. I fixed it completely unplugging everything to do with the Calc. I then plugged the little thing into the calc first, then i plugged the other side into the computer, it then wotked perfectly.

I have to make a dictionary program for ti-83+ (basic or assembly but i need a bunch of help. It will take mme weeks apon months apon years to make a dictionary program myself.

I'll help. I e-mailed you.

i like to have sex with hot girls

with big boobs and huge asses

then she sucks my dick like, forever

then, my huge dick goes up her butt, and my hands all over her boobs

and my hands go into her pussy, too
fuck, yes!!
yes....yes...yes.yes.yesYesYEsYESYESYES!

huge, natural boobs producing milk and huge asses

I have a similar problem: My USB link will absolutely not communicate with my TI-89. It seems to be a calculator problem because it works just fine with my TI-83p. I dont know anyone else with a TI-89 to test communication between 2 calculators. Any help would be appreciated.

How can I interface with my (regretfully) newly acquired TI-84 via VB6 (on the computer)?

I would like to use the direct-link usb cord, but the crap-tacular silver usb cord would be just as good, because any program I would subsequently write would be backwards-compatable.

I am planning to make a Windows-like program in assembly. Where is the best place to learn assembly? And is there an emulator for assembly?

Depends on what calc you're using...for the 86, follow the "Programming" link at the top of the page, select "Tutorials", and find Ciarin McCreesh's asm tutorial. For the 83+, I haven't actually used it, but I've heard that the "learn assembly in 28 days" one is good...it's somewhere in the informational text section of the archives here.

As for an emulator, download VTI 2.5 (also in the ticalc.org archives). Since it emulates a full calc, you can test anything you want on it (asm, BASIC, etc.).

Also, I really don't mean to be discouraging or anything, but you might want to start with something MUCH simpler than a windows-like GUI for your first assembly program. ;-) (this comes from first-hand experience)

go to google video, sign up or log in, then search for "hot sexy girls
youll like what you find!!
YES YES YES!!!!

I had the same problem, I fixed it by soldering a new plug into my ti-89. You could also try re-setting your calc by pressing [right]+[left]+[2nd]+[on]. if this dose not work, resoldering should help :)

i have an idea, make a compressor for the TI-83+ that actually works. i have littlememory and need muchmore. email me at bobdole10319321@aim.com if you have one that works.
thanks

hey same person, lost my password and made a new one. hey i made a program that frees up some memory, and it works if your strings are big, also if you get my program , before the disp"done" could you and list 2 store as list 1, list 3 store as list 1, ect. i can guaruntee you it will free up memory, no know bug, cause it is so small, and only frees up some space, not like 6000 bytes. thanks.

btw email me at bunkerdude103@hotmail.com, not my aim email.

Well if you knew anything about ASM you'd know that real numbers take up 9 bytes, and complex numbers take up 18 bytes! This is way too much for some simple numbers. With a single byte, you can store integers 0-255, with two bytes it's integers 0-65535, etc. (half that for signed numbers) So, maybe a compressory might possible somewhat work if you could allocate a certain amount of space for numbers? like in C?

Nobody seems to posting program ideas (I haven't either) so here's one. A guessing program where the user thinks of a number 1-100. The calc guesses 50. User tells the calc whether actual num. is higher or lower. if higher, calc guesses 75. if lower, calc guesses 25
You get the idea.... ... . . . ... ... .. . .... I'll problably do that my self, though, so you could make a variation of it.

Sure, but how about having the calc select a random integer within a reasonable range?

Go to [MATH], then over to PRB, then go down to 5: randInt(
The input is randInt(minvalue,maxvalue)
Opt:
type ->variable after the ) to store the integer to a variable such as theta
This can't go to a half or something like that.

For what model?

I dont no where to put this, so im putting it here.
I want to learn ASCII
does any1 no a good tutorial for that. please help me

What do you mean by that? ASCII is a character set (a way to represent characters using binary numbers).

See Here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII

ASCII isnt a language or anything but here (http://www.asciitable.com/) is a table of the ASCII values
