So, say a certain person tried to make a program on their calculator in Axe, but when they made the main loop, they failed at the GetKey= statement and can't quit their program.

What should I, I mean they, do?
If a program cannot be exited by normal means, the best way to cancel it is to pull a battery. RAM will be cleared, but nothing else will be damaged.

But... RAM clear?  :(

I guess that's ok except for the fact that it's effin' impossible to get anything onto a TI-Nspire via Win7 and I'll have to wait another 82 trillion years to put Axe back on.

EDIT: HAHANO, Axe is in archive 'cause it's an app! [/noob]

Also is Text(x,y):Text "Strings" smaller than Text(x,y,"Strings")?
Nope, but Text(Y*256+X):Text "Strings" is, if Y and X are constants.

Make sure your getKey values are Axe keycodes, not BASIC keycodes: http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?action=ezportal;sa=page;p=21

Yeah, I used the Getkey^r keycodes, because I made a GETKEY program that way, and didn't notice that the Getkey^r keys are different from the GetCSC keycodes. Whoops :p

EDIT: fail quotes, that's what I get for not using Preview.

Someone must have accidently unstickied it; it only takes one erroneous click from a CoT or Admin to do so.
It's sticked again now.  Thanks for bringing the issue up.

Am I doing this right?
"appvBLARG"→Str1
GetCalc(Str1,123)→oVAR
255→oVAR
!If oVAR-255
.if equal to 255
Disp "Yay"
Else
Disp "Noes"
End

I thought it would be more like

"appvBLARG"→Str1
GetCalc(Str1,123)→oVAR
255→{oVAR}
!If {oVAR}-255
Disp "Yay"
Else
Disp "Noes"
End

Since you treat appvars like areas of free RAM. I'm not certain though.
Leafiness has it right.  However it's still giving me problems:
GetCalc(Str1,12)→oPTR
...throws ERR:INVALID TOKEN at compile time and points to the o.

Is there a way to make a custom-named variable point to an appv, prgm, etc?  Or is it basically a static pointer a la Str# or Pic#?

You should only use the degree symbol when defining the location of that variable, e.g. L1+2→°PTR. Your code should actually be GetCalc(Str1,12)→PTR.

so the oPTR is the physical location of it, just plain PTR references the contents?

That is correct.

How much space does

Code: [Select]
[181842424242423C]->GDB0
[01]
Str00
Str10

take?
The Str00 points to an 8 character long string, the Str10 to a 20 chararacter long string.

I'm trying to find how to put two 'things' together. Like:
Code: [Select]
:5->A
:text(25,25,0 and A>Dec)I want "05" printed. What must I do, if this is possible?
Thanks in advance.

You could try this:
Code: [Select]
Text(25,25,'0','0'+A)
It only works for single digit numbers, though.

My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

Really? I got it to work with multidigit numbers
Using:

Text(25,25,"0",A->Dec

Also a somewhat relating question, how would you put together 2 strings and store it into a new string?
