Just thought of a useful idea (I'm posting it here partly to remember it): some sort of interface that lets you insert special calculator symbols like θ and →.

This is pretty cool! Could you add an irc chat to the mix?

I think that would be too heavy for a browser extension. (It would probably lag every tab you have open.) You can always use Mibbit for an in-browser IRC client.

I know I just didn't like switching between websites to chat :D
But then again... I have XChat...

Opera have an IRC client integrated I think. Click here or here to try it. If you have Firefox, Mibbit would open instead, if it's still the case.

That would be nice. That or it should be integrated into the forum software as a SMF mod.

Do you mean kinda like what they had on TIBD? Somewhere in the site corner they had some small widget letting you copy/paste those chars.

My plan is something like that. Either a little floating box with the symbols, or a small popup window for inserting them.

Alright. Huge update. It's actually got some useful stuff now.
  • Insert one of ten common special characters—'→ (store)', 'ʟ (list)', 'θ (theta)', 'π (pi)', '° (degree)', '√ (root)', '► (arrow)', '≠ (not equal to)', '≥ (greater than or equal to)', '≤ (less than or equal to)'—by right-clicking in any text field.
  • Instantly get TI-BASIC command syntax and descriptions by typing "basic" in the omnibar, pressing Tab (like with a custom search engine), and typing the first few letters of the command name. It's powered by the UTR (thanks to shmibs for putting in most of those items!).
The URL is still in the first post.

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...

Edit: wait are you using the PortableApps thing?  I remember that being horrendously slow..
Yes I am, and I don't really have a choice for Firefox :/
Not to advertise :P but for me Liberkey works great.  I have um, two extensions installed+enabled and a custom theme...no noticeable slowdown :)
I just started using LiberKey, and you're right—the speed difference is amazing. Starting up is several times faster than with PortableApps!

That means I can actually work on a Firefox extension now if nobody else is taking that.

I'm still curious if anything like this could ever be written in Opera browser. I know Opera has widget support, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of them...
