Hey! Henrik's back! Anyway, I've looked through the archives before, but not very often. If they were more popular, they'd probably be slightly more useful.

I am working 100% behind the scenes you know. Lately spending all awaken time on behind-the-scenes ticalc.org work.

Henrik has never left. Honestly, this site would probably fall apart without him with the work he's done.

We need an annual Henrik Appreciation Day around here or something. Seriously. The credit:work ratio is staggeringly low.

On a on-topic sidenote, what happened to the Assembly-83 list ?? I've been trying to subscribe, but it seems to be gone. This is what I get when I use the list command:

Ecartis v1.0.0 - job execution complete.

As you see, no assembly-83. Am I missing something here ?

v00t! second post!! I usually use my mail, I sort it into a seperate folder with a custom filter.

v00t!? Are you German or something? Or, more likely, do you not know how to spell w00t!?

LOL, v00t! is the German translation of w00t!

I am new at asm programing but can someone please tell me how and where to get the files to compile asm files to my ti-89 calc. Thanks

A little tip. Don't post "help me" questions around here. It tends to annoy people...

Anyway, I never knew there were archives till now.

I do sometimes... but I'm popular! (j/k)

Anyway, I'd suggest you download TIGCC, it's in the windows archives somewhere. It should be good for TI-89/92+ C and asm.

Hehe, next poll: Is no_one_2000_ popular?

You mean me? I've already downloaded it. It's just the learning part that's fun. :-)

Yes I am popular! :) Well, at least everybody knows me... I think....


No, I was talking to that other guy... I figured you'd have downloaded it by now, assuming you had a TI-89/92+

Hehe, I downloaded it a while ago. I'm just too lazy to get around to learning... But I do know people at my school with 89s that haven't downloaded it yet. One of them has had his for about 2 years and he just learned how to do the solve function. (No joke!)

*sigh* There are so many calculator-illiterate people in this world...

Give Ryan a little break.

To get a compiler for ASM and C just click the (Web Page) next to my page. Some good examples of ASM programming can be found throughout the TIcalc.org site and also at this one.

The hell?

I wasn't talking about Ryan, I was talking about the guy that BullFrog knew that didn't know about the solve function for two years!

What happened to the word "What" at the beginning of your post????? :-)

j/k

Some people still don't understand the benefits of technology (even though Bill Gates making too much money is an exception).......

Hey, there's no need for "what"! ;)

v00t !

Um... How can we possibly have a helpful, informative calculator-programming-related community without anyone asking for help occasionally?

Well, this survey IS on the mailing list things... Perhaps they could offer some help? (After all, that is what they're for :)

Good idea! :)

Oh yeah, and also, you better have a link cable and graph-link or you can't send it to your calc (but you probably knew that)

well... you /can/ view it on the computer with with a hex editor and generate it by using the char(#) command in a looping BASIC program... there's a program for the 85 that uses strings like that (except that it uses lists instead of typing in the numbers one at a time...)

You could also use an emulator... (or is that what you mean?)

Don't bother. Download TIGCC and learn C instead of asm (C is vastly easier and more applicable).

I got tigcc for my calcc but i hace one more question.

how do i call for diffrent functions in c.
example.
void _main()
{
DrawStr(0,0,"press enter to continue",A_NORMAL);
key = ngetchx();
if (key == 13){
//What do I put here to go to the TheOtherFunction
//Function
}

void TheOtherFunction()
{
ClrScr();
DrawStr(0,0,"Hi",A_NORMAL);
return;
}

Just type in "TheOtherFunction();" when you want to call it

Yeah, it's just like regular C.

Don't bother. Download TIGCC and learn C instead of assembly. (C is vastly easier and more applicable). Also, get TI-Connect for sending files to your calc. TIGCC can be found here under Windows Assembly Utilities. TI-Connect can be found at http://education.ti.com

In order to save memory, just e-mail me if you have problems with it.

If he wants to learn assembly, do not disuade him. There are few enough assembly programmers as it is. C may be good and all, but you will never get the speed and power with it that you get out of well written assembly code.

It is possible to optimize C for both speed and power equal to that of a skilled ASM programmer. In fact, you can optimize C so much that it cannot be further optimized by replacing it with an inline.

eh. Most commands in TIGCC are at least two or three opcodes in ASM. I say we take a cue from Dilbert's boss and cut down on code size by deleting all those useless zeroes and keeping the ones ;-)

lol, I wonder what a program with all 'FF's would do? Probably either nothing or it would crash :)

I've often wondered about weird stuff like that. Like, what if you made a program that created an executable file with random binary in it? And then you ran it? That'd be so weird...

It will crash with "Line 1111 Emulator".

Or, on AMS >= 2.07, if you don't put the two 00 bytes at the end, you will get an error dialog: "Invalid relocation data in ASM program".

You tried it?

i think he helped make TIGCC..

Really? Yup, he did... A68K modifications. :)

Kevin has done much more than A68k Modifications.

Well, that's just what I read from the TIGCC 'About' pop-up.

Actually No. Tigcc for 68k is not the same as gcc for an intel/AMD processor.

let's not get into another C vs. asm discussion.


btw, great job on Phantom Star, even though i'll be selling my calcs soon.

You're selling your TI-83+? (Don't you have two?)

what does email have to do with memory???

Who knows?


... the Shadow knows.

Nobody knows!
Not even the shadow knows...

The shadow is as schtoopid as me!

I asked him to e-mail me if he has anymore problems to save memory because if he posted more help messages, it would drastically increase the size of this page, making it slower to download. Maybe "memory" was a poor choice of words.
