I've had a lot of test requests, so I'll definitely let people who want to test it test it, include Qwerty, FinaleTI, meishe91 and yunhua. The only thing I ask is that you provide quality screenshots of working programs so that people will see it on ticalc.org and think "I want it I want it I want it!" And you will be credited for your work.
I will need at least one person willing to test the small font.

i believe the first two bytes are the number token bytes in the program, and then the rest is the data of the program.
When I look at the binary/hex code for an .8xp file on the computer, there's more at the beginning than that.

What is the file format for a Ti-Basic Program? I know all about tokens, but I don't know what comes before and after the token data.
Thanks!

ok, maybe i'll start to learn basic, too...
Basic is important, DON'T underestimate its capabilities. Even though it can't crash a calculator, it can be quite useful
Agreed and seconded

Nice Hot Dog! By the way can the fonts be archived?
^++ This.
That was the major problem I had with Omnicalc's fonts. They had to be in the RAM.
^++^++ This. This.
Yeah, that was the annoying thing about them. And another question: Will this slow down BASIC programs?
All parser hooks slow down BASIC programs ever so slightly. I am doing everything I can to make sure that Correlation will slow down a Ti-Basic program as little as possible when not in use.

Yes! Fonts can be archived! However, the program will run slightly slower when a font is archived, say 1/60000th of a second every time you use Output() or Text().  Lol

Nice! And as a side question, how are the fonts stored? Will they be compatible with the Omnicalc fonts?
They are stored as programs and will not be compatible.

This screenshot shows how Correlation helps you to find errors in your Ti-Basic program. I started writing the code to let the user select what font to use. In the case of this screenshot, the font is pgrmP. However, pgrmP does not exist.

I'll want to release an example program with Correlation, but I have been long out of practice with Ti-Basic. Is there anyone who would be willing to make an example program before I release Correlation? It will be homescreen, and all that the program will need to do is control a person that moves around a homescreen text-based tilemap.
The advantage is that you get to be the first person to use Correlation for custom Ti-Basic fotns 
I'll give it a shot, I'd love to work with custom fonts again! I used to use Omnicalc fonts to make tilemaps on the homescreen.
You're hired!  Of course, I'll give you credit for your example program. And I'll let you know when I'm ready for you to work on it. I just need to finalize tokens and get the font creator working. Thanks, FinaleTI!

Hot Dog, my friend gangsterveggies, he keeps mentioning you "Awesome tutorial, I really need Asm(, why you like Axe? Asm( for the win"
So, I will be taking a more deep look at your tutorial and make an interesting program out of it, maybe, but nothing serious, since I like Axe more
No worries about you liking Axe more. Let's face it, great games have been made in Axe and Ti-Basic, and Axe is fun! But, I'm glad to hear that there's another person that understood and liked the tutorials

^This. I noticed more people learning ASM lately. Maybe that guide got an effect?
That would be awesome psst, I added your tutorial in WikiTI by linking to the ticalc file Thanks, Galandros! Although I edited the article to say that the link led to a preview. I'll be sure to change it when it's in full working condition on ticalc.org

* DJ Omnimaga wonders if this will be useable in Axe
Not unless we can incorporate it. Sorry  --but then since you can display sprites/tilemaps in axe, you really don't need it Oh, well there is a neat twist!. So you are going to be making the routine for how Output( and the like act? That is really nice and that will make the routine fast as well.
Yes. Output will display a custom standard 6x8 font, and Text() will display a custom sized font, the default being the size of small text. The limitation is all characters must be the same size.

Yeah, your program is looking very cool. This will be very useful, I can see that. So is this going to use a parse hook and font hook?
Only the parse hook. Font hooks are too slow because they are used by the slow Ti-OS routines. Instead, fonts will be compiled as programs, such as pgrmMYFONT.

Oh ok but what if someone absolutely needs to use the homescreen while using Coorelation?
To use the homescreen, the person would have to use the Ti-OS font--it's the nature of the beast. You can turn Correlation off in the middle of your Ti-Basic program to use the Ti-OS font.
