I've been periodically checking xLIB Guru to see if it has received any new updates, but unfortunately it has pretty much died. So, I was wondering what you guys thought of merging it with http://tibasicdev.wikidot.com? TI|BD averages several edits a day, and it also has over 400 pages of content. Although we've been concentrating almost entirely on pure TI-Basic thus far, we would like to cover all of the TI-Basic assembly related things as well, so the xLIB Guru content would fit right in.

(I know it's against forum rules to advertise another TI site, but I asked Kevin and he said it was okay.)

Yeah the guy who founded xLIB Guru retired a month after it all started, and given the fact the guy who hosts revsoft.org retired from the TI calc stuff maybe one day he will decide to trash everything TI related from his server (except maybe Revsoft) and put other stuff there instead. I thought about a merge before but I was sure you guys wanted to stick to pure BASIC. It would be cool if it expanded, I would be happy to merge, altough I don' think i will be able to help much

Sure thing is that once the pages are moved the xLIB Guru link will be replaced with the TI-BASIC Wiki

I definitely agree, and it would be really easy to merge xLIB Guru, considering it only has three pages of content. Heck, I could probably do it in under an hour

If you need any help, don't be afraid to ask, unless the 2nd thursday 2 months prior falls on a day that is a multiple of 7.

In other words, I can help!

Do it and ask for forgiveness later.

If you want to add the xLIB Guru pages to TI|BD, that would be great! Help is always appreciated.

or we can just add everything to the tifw tutorial archives...

But heck, that has quite the waiting list right now... o.o

I am working on it right now though!!

Or both tifreak8x. That might actually be a good idea , I mean it'd be beneficial to have everything in one place.

What tutorial are you working on? The xLIB Guru?

tifreak · « **Reply #10 on:** December 16, 2007, 10:29:00 am »

no, at the moment, somethig for the 92 basic section. I have... I don't know, nearly 30 tutorials myself to put up.

burr · « **Reply #11 on:** December 16, 2007, 11:38:00 am »

Is this another one of the calc.org tutorials?

JoostinOnline · « **Reply #12 on:** December 16, 2007, 02:16:00 pm »

So will it become TI|XD (TI-xLib Developer)?

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #13 on:** December 16, 2007, 02:31:00 pm »

I think it will remain TI|BD but it will have a side section for xLIB

No, something Fryedsoft had that was located on the webarchive thing.

I have completed 1 of 2 of the tutorials, starting in on the second now..

Oh yes...

Would it be ok, if/when I get that far in the list, to simply do a catalog style system for what th TIBD has?
