Official Contest / Re: Prizm Contest: Who's participating

I'm entering and I believe Ashbad is entering too. I'm not sure about others yet
I'm also entering.

Marketing can be hard to notice, because there's both marketing to students and marketing to teachers... We don't know what the teachers see, but TI is probably advertising more than Casio, like they always do.

All content has now been restored and all users that have made edits were banned, other than 90.186.0.21, who wasn't a spambot and cleaned up some commonly used pages.

There was a wave of spambot edits recently. I've reverted all of the edits and banned the IP adresses, so hopefully they won't bother us more. Maybe we should also disable editing for users that haven't registered, like on the old host?

EDIT: They are still attacking. Please disable editing for guests.

Casio Calculators / Re: Image converter by Casio?
« on: July 26, 2011, 01:29:12 pm »
Awesome!  Nice find. :D  This is great for Prism coders.
No, it's actually mostly useless for programming. The images that are used in programs don't have to be in a specific format, so this is only useful for displaying images in the OS - without programming. However, the usefulness is a bit limited, as I stated in my previous post. However, this program will most likely make it easier for us to figure out how the image file format works.

This was pretty unexpected... We knew that they were going to release this sooner or later, but I had no idea that it would be so locked-down. You have to fill in a form to get it, which gives the feeling that they only want teachers to have it, and the converter is useless for the fx-CG10 since the images aren't compatible at all. Was all of this done because of the standardized tests? I mean, TI's calculators are allowed to display any converted image file, but for some reason the fx-CG10 isn't allowed to...

AoC, as far as TI cares it's a French TI-83 with a 256KiB ROM. They wouldn't help. :P
TI only cares that it's a French TI-82 STATS. They won't say that it's an 83, and they won't say how much memory it has. :P

Maybe you could try TiLP (the newest beta version)? It uses a different set of drivers that TI's software.

Does the calc need to be connected to the computer to use Gossamer?
Yes.

News / Re: OS 3.0.2 downgrade now possible with DowngradeFix

But that's being launched from OS 1.7. A true OS should be launched on boot, I think.
We need the RSA keys to do that.

Undelete means like restoring deleted files? I didn't know this was possible on-calcs, I thought the files just disappeared forever.
All files continue to exist until you garbage collect, so retrieving old versions of files is possible. :)

Is it like on Windows: when we delete a file, it only tells the OS the space that file used is now free and it doesn't really delete it. So there are some programs to get files that were deleted?
Yes, that's kinda how it works - but Windows might garbage collect some files without you noticing.

What would be required for an OS to be compatible with existing Ndless programs? Do we have to provide an environment that's similar to Phoenix, or will the programs accept anything?

« on: July 24, 2011, 08:39:16 am »
if I have an infinite loop in my application, is there a quit button like ON in Basic? and not having to take out the batteries?
No, there is no quit button (unless you program one yourself).

Creating a full OS is pretty much impossible for now, as we don't know the RSA Algorithm yet :S
We know the algorithm that the OS is signed with - it's the key that we don't know. (Or did you mean the algorithm to find the keys? It's mostly a matter of computing power.) Anyway, wouldn't OSLauncher work for custom OSes?
