Advanced Text Editor v.5 Beta

 Math is fun!
Jonah "I Just Can't Get Enough" Cohen has released a crazy (dare I say "insane?!") new program called Advanced Text Editor v.5 Beta for the 86. It looks very nice, but of course my view on it is tainted considering the fact that Jonah interrogated me for several hours one night a few weeks back on what the acronym should spell out. That was irksome, but the program shouldn't be! Looking at the screenshot, its versatility looks quite nice, allowing for a great range of editing options and all that fun stuff. It doesn't allow text styles, which is really trivial on a calculator-based text editor anyway. The lack of frivolous features and bells & whistles on this program leads to simplicity and efficiency in design, and that's a much stronger point in my opinion.
Oh, yeah, and this doesn't even need to be in the headline, since it happens so often :P, but the delicious Patrick Davidson has released Phoenix v7.02 for the 89, 92, and the 92 Plus. Man, no wonder Patrick is the most downloaded author: he brings out 318024172384 releases of the same program every week! :P

My apologies to everybody who downloaded ATE v.5 and v.51 -- there was an extremely serious crashing bug triggered when inserting text that I failed to notice simply for a lack of testing. Version .52 has just been uploaded to ticalc.org, so I would ask that anybody who has inadvertantly downloaded an older version to immediately get to this essential upgrade. I am sorry for any data loss that has been incurred by this oversight.

Interesting, too bad it's not being ported to the 83

Yes, I agree, but why is there is a Math is Fun link at the top of this story? It links to nothing more than a picture of a stick figure and a bunch of numbers. Of course, the numbers 4 and 2 are very noticable.... But... um... why is it there?

This is all well and good for TI-86 users, but the TI-83+ really needs a text editor. Kouri of Void Productions is working on one that should be out this summer.
