I made an interesting font. It's based off one of my favorite fonts, which just happens to be my new coding font: Cloister Black.

I still need to do some of the symbols, but I worked really hard on it and wanted to post it.

a feature suggestion - virtual desktops! (Or multiple desktops!)
OK, calculators are not desktops, but what if you could switch between homescreen states? Or even save them?
[...]
...and so on. I'll admit that those examples are pretty stupid, but you get the gist of the idea.
The entries should be saved as well, not just the screen.
What are your thoughts?

I dunno how doable this would be, but I think it would be really awesome.

Why was 6 afraid of 7?

For Java, I use BlueJ sometimes and you can't change the font from whatever the default is...

But whenever I use Visual Studio, Netbeans or Eclipse, I have Cloister Black set as my font. It makes me feel special.

when I was in APCS, my teacher didn't taught us anything so we had to learn by ourselves XP
(Yeong got a score of 4 in AP test XP )

Out of? Also, I know people who use Microsoft Word to write CSS. Of course, now they use Notepad++ thanks to me

Highest possible is a 5.
That's very good

5 is great (I got this on a practice AP Exam we took for fun on the first day ), 4 is very good, 3 is okay, 2 is meh (and gets you no college credit), 1 is rather despicable.

I though the AP Exam was fairly easy. I ended up scoring a 5.

Out of curiosity, how did you handle the rain effect?  Like code wise?  Is it implemented in a very general way or was a lot of custom code have to be written?

It's actually just a loop than runs through a set of sprites that consist of the rain animation, drawing the current rain frame across the whole screen. I used to have a custom code that required less sprite data, but I settled on this method because I made it easier to do the snow as well, as well as allowing me to share virtually the same code for the two weather effects.
The plan is for rain to predominately show up in the southern province, snow to only fall in the northern province, to have thunderstorms show up on the world map, and occasionally in the mountainous areas of the western province, and possibly to have sandstorms affecting the eastern province. The central province would occasionally be stricken by rain and thunderstorms, but never snow or sandstorms.

And I'll play around with the water animation tonight.

You would need to do:
GetCalc("varA")->P
A->float{P}
Real vars are covered in my external vars tutorial.

Groups are readable in axe, it's 2nd+9 (like 2nd+8 is appv, 2nd+9 is grp)
The Axe docs don't say how groups are formatted, but iirc it tells you to look in the "TI-Developer's Guide" for help on that.

I've checked WikiTI, the TI-Developer's Guide, and a file format guide, and I was unable to find anything about groups.
However, there is a bcall to deal with ungrouping, but I haven't found anything on creating groups except bcall 50C5: GroupAllVars, which groups everything in RAM. I might be able to play around with group files tonight, see if I can figure something out, since I want to know for my tutorial as well. It must be a bunch of programs in one file, though I'm not sure if there's some sort of header data, and where the program name fits into the file.

Words cannot describe my giddiness. Er, words besides these, that is.

As much as I'm not a fan of the series, one of the best GBC games I ever played was Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
Combining Harry Potter with a classic turn-based RPG worked out quite well in my opinion.

Super Mario Bros Deluxe was a pretty sweet GBC game too.
