I think that the quality of surveys has somewhat decreased since the old days, six months or a year ago. How about more surveys about recently released programs? This may seem unfair to those whose programs aren't the subject of a survey, but you could at least post a survey asking members their favorite games. A good example would be the newly-posted Alien Invasion, an ASM game written in C for the 89. It is the best game I have ever played, no exaggeration. Jason Ho should be proud to have made such a good game without copying the pattern set up by Phoenix like so many programmers do. I would like to encourage everyone to download this game and share it with your friends.

I only wn a TI-86, and I have an emulator. I'm not used to the 89, so tell me, how do I run an assembly program, such as ebook?

type:

ebook()

thats the asm program name with the parenthesis

(since ebook is nostub, which means it doesnt require a shell, it can be run like that, however there are shells, which are asm programs to run other programs, (yeah its pretty screwed), check out the individual shells documention for them...the ebook reader is easy to do however)

It just says "done".

you have to have a book on the calc also

Do you know where to get some books? I also have a Ti-86 and the idea of reading books on my calc to escape the dreaded directed study hall.

Do you know where to get some books? I also have a Ti-86 and the idea of reading books on my calc to escape the dreaded directed study hall sounds neat.

No i dont, but i would like to. I really would like to know why my comp just stoped letting me make SOMe LetterS NOt cAPItAL...?

o but anyways, i cant figure out how to make my own ebooks for the calc, can someone email me the exact command you need to enter to make an ebook from a txt file that is located at "c:/windows/desktop/ebooks/book.txt"

I like technology and agree that we should start using different media other than paper for writing but, I still preferr the paper book to the silcon ebook. Maybe someday I'll read an ebook.

What about eBook daily news? Would that make eBooks more popular?

I just created a shell script on my linux box that will download the content from Slashdot.org and ticalc.org and make them into a eBooks. Thanks to cron the script will run daily as long as my computer is on. You can get the files off my web site.

Should I do abcnews.com or some other web site? Is anybody besides me interested in downloading web pages for later reading at all?

I will once i get my ebookman (www.franklin.com)...thing is nice

Yes, eBooks are a very good invention. I use them a lot and I make them myself, the only problem is to get a book on your computer in textformat.

Now I got some error that wouldn't let me vote.
So I'll just say that if I new what an ebook was i probably would not read one.

Notice that this was February 2001's survey?...With DUPE CHOICES?!

lol, yes I did.

i dont have a 89 or 92, so i cant read the TI ebooks. i probably would not read them if i had one anyway.

I need to find a place to download newer novels for a library like approach. I noticed a link earlier in the thread, but it doesn't work(anymore at least). Anyone help? Dune is my alltiem favorite series, and if someone could point me to those in e-book form...:-)
