Question, what would be that program for? I am curious about the text inverting part. Is it some sort of font editor?
If Option #2 doesn't work out, I'll end up using my font compiler, which probably won't work 100% for all computers. In that case, Option #1--the program in question--will be used for compiling a font manually, which will be necessary for people who can't get my font compiler to work.

can you explain more in detail all pieces of information entered by the user? this is what i have so far:
-wait until the user presses a button...
-ask for the size of the font
-if it's less than 9, read through 4 bytes forwards and write them backwards, then skip 2 bytes (the 5th and 6th).
-otherwise, skip 4 bytes (5th-8th).
-display text, and return to the beginning waiting for a button press.
edit: or if this is what you want then i'll start coding.
 I admire your enthusiasm, but I want to wait a couple of days to see if there's other people. Last time I asked for help, I made the mistake last time of "hiring 'too quickly'" when there were so many people who wanted to help.

i'm confused when you say you want the text to turn it backwards.
so omnimaga would become agaminmo? and how would the program know whether to skip the 5th 6th 7th or 8th character?
#2 may be easier since it can be done command line style. would it be ok to export it as a .txt file, and then you can just resave it as NAME.8xp?
Omnimaga would become agaminmo. The program would skip the 5th/6th bytes if a user specified a font no more than 8 pixels wide, but it would skip every 5th-8th byte if the user specified that the font would be more than 8 pixels wide. I thought that java could write .8xp files. Anyways, .txt would be fine, but remember with command line style the user would still need to specify some options

As many of you know, Correlation is coming out for testing in about a month. If there are any Java programmers who would like to write a simple, but much-needed application, it would be greatly appreciated.
There are two options available. It will be "one-or-the-other", since I will not need both.
1. Easier: Create an application where a user can paste text. The application will alter the text by turning it backwards, and then skipping every 5th, 6th, and sometimes 7th/8th character. The new text will be available for the user to copy and paste.
2. Create a Correlation Font Compiler. I wrote one, but it requires .NET, and I am concerned about cross-platforming and all. I will have the exact .8xp file format provided, so all you would need to do is create the code to accept user values and write an .8xp file.
Thanks for any help!

If a Java program is translated into "Java Byte Code," is it guranteed to run on Windows, Mac and Linux as long as they have java installed?

Are there any more early Starcraft screenshots, btw? A website perhaps?

It's interesting, Blizzard took so much time balancing the game that they had lots of time to redo and redo and redo graphics

Okay, I'll be sure not to touch that. What exactly does the OS use IY for, anyway?
The OS has what are called "customized flags" to keep track of events that have occured, modes that have been set, graphs that have been drawn, etc. IY points to where these flags are located.

Doesn't destroying IX mess with the OS?
No, but destroying IY does

It doesn't have to be about the site, by the way, just something you reference or like to think about, something that comes to mind when you visit. Here's another way to put it: if you're on Omnimaga IRC, what kind of gift do you like to recieve? Such as "/me gives Iambian a barrel of cherries"

That's certainly an idea to consider

When you come onto this website, what is the thing you enjoy the most, whether you are thinking about it, talking about it or recieving it?
For example, from what I remember, Iambian likes cherries, Raylin likes squirrel ninjas, and DJ Omnimaga likes lobsters.
For me, it's lobsters.

DJ, I forgot that Asm( can only run programs, not hex code. However, I found that I can use the regraph hook to turn on the parser hook when it's been turned off. Since I can prevent the graph screen from being drawn at all, I'll use a command -- so far, ZoomSto -- to turn on the parser hook. That way, Ti-Basic Text-Based games will STILL run faster with Correlation than without it. (If this doesn't make sense, just trust me

I got:
Connected
DispGraph
EDIT: I don't know if it's useful, but this command will always redraw and display the graph screen:
ZoomSto Runer112, ZoomSto is quite useful, thanks a lot! There's something called a regraph hook I want to use, and it only gets called when the graph redraws itself. So ZoomSto is the best one yet!
