I'm going to focus on the main theme of this topic from now on.

He's not a TI spy, but there's one person in the community who precluded himself from getting his dirty hands on the Ndless 1 and 2 exploits, because he wrote multiple times, even before the release of Ndless 1, that he'd release it immediately if he got hold of it, no matter how good are the reasons not to release it (disrespect towards those who do actual work, giving a head start to TI for screwing us up in the next OS update, giving a bad reputation to an unstable exploit that could brick the calcs - not to mention disdain for the experience of other homebrew communities fought by the manufacturer and behaving responsibly by maintaining a head start on the manufacturer and withhelding exploits until they become necessary, etc.). That person doesn't even have any Nspire calculator, BTW...

Yes, and you know it :P
I don't think he owns a z80 calculator either, IIRC, yet we all know him...

I actually plan to learn some C in order to program for teh nspire. Can I have a good complier that DOESNT require Cmd preferrably

What I do is create a batch file that contains:

Code: [Select]
make
pause

and run it from windows explorer.

Or you could do it so the batch file autonavigates to the project directory based on the user's input... I don't have an Nspire, but based on the way apcalc explains it in the tutorial, all you'd need is this (based off a batch file I wrote for SPASM recently):

Code: [Select]
@echo off
title Nspire C Compiler
set /p project=Project folder: 
cd %project%
echo Making project...
make
pause

The advantage is that you would only need one batch file, not one for each project. So, you could create a shortcut to this batch file on your desktop. (The disadvantage is users not easily being able to recompile your source without a batch file in the project folder like fb39ca4's).



The userbars in my sig are links embedded links.

And in addition to calculator (and Python!) stuff, I mod Civilization 4 (frequently with Python).

So that would be all I would have to do? Just make a batch file?


Sorry, these kinda things confuse me

you would not beleive how long it took me to figure out how to compille in C#, all that work, just to find out I needed csc.exe and a few csc.dlls


* qazz42 feels retarded

Yes, to make a batch file you just need to make a text file, and rename it *.bat.

If you're going to be using fb39ca4's batch file, I suggest you create it in your project folder and give it the same name as your project. So if you're compiling the demo, call the batch file demo.bat and put it in the same folder. Then copy-paste the code he posted into it and run it.

If you're going to be using my batch file, create it anywhere (probably in the compiler's folder), copy-paste the code I posted into it, and make a shortcut on your desktop. So again, if you were compiling the demo, when you run the batch file type out (or copy-paste) the path to the demo folder and press enter.

Ah,ok thanks, I didnt realize that making a complier was that easy


Sorry if oyu have to walk me through this, but why is "make" not a reconized command?

because you don't have a compiler installed.  Making a compiler is not that easy, and I would suggest using an IDE.

Oh, I assumed you had the compiler installed already... yes, you need to follow apcalc's instructions here, but instead of compiling using the command line, use one of the batch files.
