Sounds awesome, Hot_Dog! :D I remember reading on how you theorized how this could work, but I never saw how you would get it to work opn a BE 83+.  I'm sure it works, because I trust your abilities in assembly far above how much I trust mine ;) but, just out of curiosity, can you explain how it works on a BE?

AND, your respect == number of pokemon in Johto Region ;)

Will this work with Axe? Because I know the guy who is making Eitrix could use something like this. So make an axiom? Not sure if it'd work.

Either way, awesome job Hot Dog, very nice.

It could work, but I have no knowledge of making axioms.  If someone else wanted to make an axiom, they would have my full permission

The BE has a special port that makes it possible to run large programs.  This port is protected, but I found a "weakness/exploit" in the operating system to make it possible.  BrandonW's flash unlocker was needed, and so he has my thanks

TI didn't want people pirating applications.  This was in the days when people were supposed to "sell" them

Back when TI made for-pay apps, they were afraid people would send them around for free by copying code from an app into a program, so they set a limit that basically limited programs to 8 KiB, half the size of a one-page app.

Woah I didn't know there was a Boot version 1.01 for the 83+! O.O I thought only 1.00 existed.

Also nice Hot Dog, I didn't realize you would manage to do it for the 83+. For some reasons, the Crab part of the software name reminds me of Nethamcake, though. :P

I have tested this on Ti-83+ BE Boot 1.01, so everything is ship-shape.  I have attached a bug-fixed readme, and I'm ready to post this on ticalc.org

Awesome it's on ticalc.org! I wonder if they'll put a news, since this is a major breakthrough (people have been limited to the 8 KB limit since 1999, except those who use apps)

The download link for Crabcake now includes the bug-fixed version of Crabcake for Axe.

Is it the same version  as the one allowed for the contest?   
* DJ_O hopes the contest one isn't buggy again O.O
