I want to store some characters you can't obtain in BASIC (for example the inverted equal) to the OS Str1 with an AXE program, so i can just copy them later into my basic program.
The problem is i don't know how to access Str1 and fill it with those characters in AXE...
thx for your help

Code: [Select]

GetCalc("Str1")→A
For(B,0,255)
B→{A+B}
End

This should work. (Str1 must be 255 chars long)
This get all the chars in Str1.

Here is a program that fills Str0 with those characters. It is in Basic so you can easily change it to store them in Str7

When i recall Str1 at the homescreen, it is full of all the tokens in the catalog (and some more...),
but the characters i'm looking for (those: http://tibasicdev.wikidot.com/83lgfont ) are missing...
displaying them directly in AXE works:

Code: [Select]

For(A,0,20)
Disp A>Char      //or >Frac, whatever...
End

i've already seen this program, but my link is broken right now so i was looking for something on calc...
but thx anyway

yeongJIN_COOL, you can't do it that way. Axe deals with 8-bit character codes, but TI-BASIC deals with tokens that are either 8 or 16 bits. You have to look up the character's token code and store that into the string. It's a pain to deal with. To do what Rollum78 wants to do, you need to define the string as a set of tokens, entering in their codes using Data(. Sorry, there are no B_CALLs that can perform tokenization of text. You'll have to find a list of token codes. ti83plus.inc has a fairly complete list, but the symbols are a little iffy.

Edit: Here's the list of hex codes from the above BASIC program:

Code: [Select]

BB 9A BB 9B BB 9C BB 9D BB 9E BB 9F BB A0 BB A1 BB A2 BB A3 BB A4 BB A5 BB A6 BB A7 BB A8 BB A9 BB AB BB AC BB AD BB AE BB CB BB CC 7F 80 81 BB D1 BB D2 BB D3 BB D4 BB D5 BB D6 BB D7 BB D8 BB D9 BB DA BB DB BB DC BB DD BB DE BB DF BB E0 BB E1 BB E2 BB E3 BB E4 BB E5 BB E6 BB E7 BB E8 BB E9 BB EA BB EB BB EC BB ED BB EE BB EF BB F0 BB F1 BB F2 BB F3 BB F4 BB F5 63 2B 29 BB CF 83 82 71 70 10 11 08 09 06 07 F0 2B BB 71 BB 73 BB 74 BB 75 BB 6F BB 70 BB 6E BB 72 BB 7A BB 7B BB 7C BB 76 BB 77 BB 78 BB 79 BB 7D BB 81 BB 84 BB 85 BB CD BB 80 BB 7F BB 83 BB 82 BB 8A BB 8C BB 86 BB 87 BB 88 BB 89 BB 8B BB 8D BB 91 BB 93 BB 95 BB 8F BB 90 BB 92 BB 94 BB 8E BB 98 BB 99 BB 96 BB 97

Not sure about Axe, but Xeda's Xtra2 can do this:

sorry!

Thanks for the hex codes, the lack of pictures in ti83plus.inc makes it hard to look them up

My only problem is how to use "Data(":

Code: [Select]

Data([sub]E[/sub]BB,[sub]E[/sub]F7)->GDB1
Copy(GDB1,GetCalc("Str1",2),2)

now theres just "?" in Str1

Code: [Select]

Data([sub]E[/sub]F7[sup]r[/sup])->GDB1
Copy(GDB1,GetCalc("Str1",2),2)

and now theres "PwrReg ?" in Str1

I'm pretty shure i'm inserting the data wrong... any idea?

Hayleia · « **Reply #8 on:** October 12, 2012, 12:28:48 pm »

I don't know why your program doesn't work but mine do

(but it wight be a good idea to manually delete Str1 before using it)

Code: [Select]

.AA
[]->GDB1
GetCalc("Str1",226)->A
[BB9ABB9BBB9CBB9DBB9EBB9FBBA0BBA1BBA2BBA3BBA4BBA5BBA6BBA7BBA8BBA9BBABBBACBBADBBAEBBCBBBCC7F8081BBD1BBD2BBD3BBD4BBD5BBD6BBD7BBD8BBD9BBDABBDBBBDCBBDDBBDEBBDFBBE0BBE1BBE2BBE3BBE4BBE5BBE6BBE7BBE8BBE9BBEABBEBBBECBBEDBBEEBBEFBBF0BBF1BBF2BBF3BBF4BBF5632B29BBCF83827170101108090607F02BBB71BB73BB74BB75BB6FBB70BB6EBB72BB7ABB7BBB7CBB76BB77BB78BB79BB7DBB81BB84BB85BBCDBB80BB7FBB83BB82BB8ABB8CBB86BB87BB88BB89BB8BBB8DBB91BB93BB95BB8FBB90BB92BB94BB8EBB98BB99BB96BB97]
Copy(GDB1+4,A,226)

Rollum78 · « **Reply #9 on:** October 12, 2012, 12:44:38 pm »

Great, it's working

But why the "+4" at this line ?

Code: [Select]
Copy(GDB+4,A,226)

I don't know at all

I tried it without the +4, thinking that would work, but it added 4 strange characters at the beginning and removed two ones at the end. Then I added the +4 and everything worked perfectly.

Please, Hayleia, you disappointed me. The four bytes are the call of GetCalc

Because GBD1 is in the program code, all your commands will be part of the memory. You have to put the []->GBD1 after the GetCalc, otherwise your data starts with "Getcalc" instead of that chunk of Hex!

it looks like everything has been sorted out, but here's a little program i wrote that shows the complete token table for the 84+ and allows exporting them for BASIC. the source might be useful.

Lol, I am so stupid. I didn't even notice the []→GDB1 was not at the right place o.o°
In fact I remember why: I copy-pasted DrDnar's hex before putting the GetCalc, then I only needed the GDB1 pointer when I placed the Copy command and I placed the pointer at the wrong place

That explains a lot.
