My TI-86 reset. Part of it might have been because there was practically zero battery life left, and most of it might have been that I was messing around with an assembly library called XCommand or something like that. I used it to set all of the bits of the first 50 bytes after where IY points (like on the TI-83+, for you TI-83+ assembly programmers, when you would do set textInverse,(iy+textFlags) and things like that). I thought it would make my calculator have a bunch of wacky mode settings and I don't know...have the home screen's contents on the graph screen or something cool like that. Instead, it froze my calculator, and after I took one battery out and put it back in, its memory was cleared. That wasn't exacltly the smartest thing I've ever done. But when boredom takes a hold of me....
Arg...I had an awesome new version of Calcman Minigames that I was planning to release, a slightly updated version of Calcman 6, a bunch of useful mathematics programs, and some cool other programs. Oh, well. At least that's better than my computer crashing....
I was pondering whether to post this or not, but I figured that it at least might slightly concern the few of you interested in Calcman Minigames for the TI-86 and I guess this might warn future users of XCommand who want to see what happens when all of the bits of the first 50 bytes after where IY points are set (and/or anybody interested in my personal life
). I suppose this is also sparking some activity in a place besides the spam board....
Hmmm, interesting. I just noticed that all of these paragraphcs in the post ended in "...." (except for this one).
