Besides, the Z80 documentation they ask SirCpwn to download has typos in it.

Jacob,

Thank you for your reply.

This e-mail has also been forwarded to the TI-Nspire family developers. As for why assembly language programming was nixed from the TI-Nspire family handheld, I have no idea but I will be sure and ask for you.

Warmest Regards,

Doug Fincher

ok thanks! Also, i was wandering how come native assembly isn't supported on the nspire? Is it going to be supported in the future at all? I would like to suggest also to support native assembly just like all the other calculator's do. Also, another suggestion. Would it be possible to suggest a ti-89 keypad for the ti-nspire cas clickpad/touchpad (I have the touchpad). Thanks again!

> With the release of the TI-Nspire family handheld, the main goal was to develop new technology so the programming development of the handheld was limited. With the release of OS 1.7 and 2.0, some programming features were added but again, the main focus was updating the existing applications (Calculator, Graphs, Lists and Spreadsheet, etc).
>
> In my opinion, it seems as if the programming development of the handheld has taken a "backseat". With that said, I will forward this e-mail to the TI-Nspire family developers as a suggestion for future operating system updates and to let them know that there are customers out there looking for more programming functionality.

> > These are very good questions you have about programming the TI-Nspire handheld. Currently, the TI-Nspire family handheld lacks the full range of programming functions found on our other graphing calculators (this also includes the getkey command you were inquiring about). As the TI-Nspire family handheld operating system is periodically updated, more and more of the standard TI BASIC functions will be added to the OS. I regret any inconvenience this may cause you.

> > Comments: Hello. I was wandering, in the TI-nspire basic, why is there no getkey command? I don't get that. I also don't get how this language could be so different from all the other TI-basic languages. Also, how come it only has a limited number of input/output commands? Thank's.
