On my calculator, password protection (locks the whole calculator, krolypto) has saved me a lot when my friends are being stupid and decide to take my calculator.  however in a shell, I'd have to agree with DJ and Kerm, it's annoying to have to type it in everytime, a one time full lock built into (or as a plugin) for DCS would be great IMO.  Two apps in one for me, as I never use krolypto's encrypting.

Personally, my trick to not get my calculator taken by people at school or resetted is to keep it in my pocket or bring it with me everytime, even if just to go give something to the teacher.

I sometimes do that if my pockets are big enough (today they are, but I'm going to the zoo today)  But I can't really take my calc to gym or band, so I leave it on my desk which is when they take it.  Oh well once they see that the calc is locked they don't bother me about it again for a while

I always keep my 3 calcs in my backpack that I take around to all my classes.

If I recall, Darkerline's calc was stolen once while he was working on Donut Quest II.

well it was still on the topic of the worthiness of password protection built-in DCS7. If people would be careful at school pass protection wouldn't even be needed (and teachers won't even let you use your calc if they were to reset it and can't, anyway)

I've lost program data to Krolypto's encrypting. I've encrypted progs, then decrypted them using the same algorithm and key and it doesn't decrypt correctly.

However the password protection is awesome, and when used with the Push-to-Test patch, it causes the reset screen to auto-redirect to the password prompt.

I hope this will fix the errors I had with 6.2.  I'm glad this is progressing! :D

I never had very serious errors, except once I was editing a program from DCS and when I tried to quit, it wouldn't. Taking out the batteries was no better. In the end I used ON+DEL. I hope DCS7 will restore my faith in the editor.
Definitely look forward to the release. Good work!

I'd appreciate if you would stop by that topic on Cemetech and tell me some of the bugs you've run into. :) That way I can add them to my list of bugs I need to find and fix, to create as stable a final product as possible.

I'm not on there, so if you don't mind, I'll post them here:
1: When playing Metroid Pi (the only basic game I have that uses Doors features) it would crash on exiting.
2: I couldn't use Doors some of the time, as it would start in the middle of the program list, so I couldn't play games that were P (I think) or above.
Note: These are from memory, as they happened a while ago. :)
I'll try 6.3 soon.  I hope I can use this great shell! ;D

1. Interesting.  I'll try to verify that.
2. Did you by any chance have a large number of programs on your calculator, say 100 or above?
