More online tools, this time for Nspire Lua
« on: May 29, 2011, 02:37:10 pm »
After A-Map and A-Sprite for TI-83 Plus Axe programmers, here come some more online development tools, this time for TI-Nspire Lua programmers!

Jimbauwens has released an online Sprite editor that supports custom color palettes to ease drawing sprites, which also supports importing and exporting, to make editing existing images easier. It is still in the works, so more features might be added eventually.

You can access the tool here.

In addition to that, Hoffa has been working on an online image converter, allowing you to convert computer image files to TI.Image files, for use in Lua documents. It can be useful for large images, but sprites as well:


You can access the tool at http://hoffa.zzl.org.
(May 30th UPDATE: The Author switched to a new host: http://hoffa.franceserv.com. Also the tool now converts multiple image formats rather than just PNG files!)

No problem. I'm glad to see new tools for programmers. These days online tools are very popular because we don't need to install anything and can get there directly in our browsers. I think SourceCoder kinda helped that trend in the community. I like being able to just upload a 8xp file online and viewing the code immediately.

Btw it doesn't work in IE9. Looks like Micro$oft still have a long way to go x.x

I wrote an online TNS file creator, which allows for direct input and uploads, plus it supports multiple files/input! :D
http://withg.us.to/lua2tns/MakeTNS.php

This was originally written by JayTe (MakeTNS was in Python).

I'm still working on it since this will eventually be integrated into Levak's and Adriweb's wiki (inspired-lua.org, I think), but things should be working in top notch shape at the moment! :D The only potential bug is that if someone else types a file name you used, you may end up downloading someone else's file or them downloading yours, so try to make up really random TNS file names! :P

Speaking of crappy browsers, although this isn't "compliant HTML" (it lacks a <head>, <html>, <body> - you name it!), this should work since I don't use any magical CSS... yet. No JS either. If this doesn't work in IE...

Won't anyone of you be able to write a program with which you can convert a .GIF - picture into a file, whitch you can open with a TI Nspire CX CAS?

Single picrures are not bad, but what's about .GIF ??

Do you just mean regular GIF files, or also animated GIFs? I don't think there's functionality for animated images in the OS, so some kind of Nspire-side program for it would be needed.

I mean animated .gif - files.
But in colour.

A agree that it'll be a special program needed, but can anyone of you please try to make that?
(I don't understand any other languages than Basic and a bit Axe code)

It probably is, but we don't know if anyone wants to do it. You'll have to wait and see if anyone feels like writing such a program.

I hope anyone will make the program.
I'll be a great new too for the TI.
