The joke was Zelda: The Minish Cap for the TI-83+SE and the TI-84+SE, a 94 pages flash app. Some people felt for it because back in the days, it was not well known that CalcCapture could capture animated screenshots from things other than a calculator emulator.

As for KOS, I am certain the OS will be much smaller than the 512 KB TI OSes, since it will not include many of the bloat and will be more optimized.

Thanks :D

But then, it'd get lost in a RAM clear.

EDIT: Oh, wait, the hooks would be lost too anyway. Never mind.

so would anything else you had in saveScreen though, including hooks or the like.  Even Omnicalc's menu gets lost in a Ram clear

Heh, if you needed to, you could keep the hidden program archived and set up a zStart script. Probably not needed :P What's this for, anyway? Just wondering.

I was merely wondering because alot of teachers check the calc for apps. I was looking for some hook or something, that would, when apps is pressed alone, throws a blank apps menu, but when apps is pressed with any other key, it outputs the real menu. i really dont need it hidden from mem menu.

BrandonW's Fake application will let you simulate a full memory reset, RAM reset, Archive reset, or anything else you can do from the 2nd+Mem+7 menu.  http://www.brandonw.net/calculators/fake/

Excellent. I will use that. But I am still interested in the above, if anyone is interested enough to try.

Does BrandonW's application work with OS 2.83 MP?

Edit: 2.53, sorry.

My website: Currently boring.

Projects:
Axe Interpreter
   > Core: Done
   > Memory: Need write code to add constants.
   > Graphics: Rewritten.  Needs to integrate sprites with constants.
   > IO: GetKey done.  Need to add mostly homescreen IO stuff.
Croquette:
   > Stomping bugs
   > Internet version: On hold until I can make my website less boring/broken.

If you have a copy of 2.83 MP, I would really like to have it :P
However, I'm not sure if it runs on 2.53 MP.
