TI-Nspire / Re: kArmTI - TI-Nspire emulator with skin

Edit: Updated MyDocuments2.zip to MyDocuments3.zip. Main feature, added AMch5 to BCAddendum directory. AMCh5 covers Systems of Linear Equations: Unique, Undetermined, Overdetermined  solutiions. Gauss-Jordan, Matrix Inversions solutions, Matrix operations including automated, plus using row operations, and Global routine 'pivmat' that we wrote. 2-D and 3-D graphing of solutions. Emphasis on Unique, Infinite, and No solutions problems and appplications.

I just did a test with v1.81 and OS4.2 with Larry's AMCh5 + Libs. I could drag and drop files without any lockup. For people interested here's a screenie.


Suggestions

0: As the calculator screen is not touch, the mouse cursor must be disabled when you set up the virtual screen, incondicionamente try to operate the screen
1: Please group the skins in a single file so that they can download easily
/ where is the latest version of the skin editor?
2: new option to hide only the title bar
Hi CompSystems, long time no see, welcome back!
Skins: Please check the topic's first page. Plenty of skins info there ;)
Other: I'll take note of it and maybe tackle it when i have some more time.

This site is really full of wonderful projects. I'm always amazed everytime i take a look at the dozens of projects on the Nspire board, for example.
But 'Houston we do have a problem' (misquoted, yeah) here. Someone ought to publicize them better. I'm not a web guru myself but I bet some people in here get along with that stuff very well and there also some pretty good writers too.

What about some slide show of each board's main projects on the site home page (changing board every day)? Would that be feasible? Too much bandwidth required?

A couple of cents more... :)

... . Thanks for the kind words, guys. :)
Speaking about thanks, I guess it's our turn (Omnimaga's) to thank you for the huge amount of hard and good work that you insist on bringing to the calc community in general. ;)

@Larry Schroeder: Thanks for the feedback! Concerning the UsbExplorer lockups with OS4.2 could you please expand a bit on that. On which platform (cpu and speed) did you carry out the multi-file transfer tests, what were the file sizes involved, how many files, etc.

I just did some some multi-tranfers with an assorted group of 7 files and did NOT notice any lockups at all!? Please have a look at the picture. Of course, I will keep on testing the OS4.2 in kArmTI v1.81, time allowing. In general, OS4.2 seems to be a bit heavier and slower, BOTOH with some interesting improvements. :)

kArmTI v1.81 (x86), a minor update.

With all the hype around the new TI OS4.2 release I decided to try it out on kArmTI v1.80 (x86) only to come to the conclusion that kArmTI needed some retouch. Here's what I found and how v1.81 behaves with OS4.2.
1. Useless verbose console output
As expected, looking to the console output, I saw a lot of cluttering warning messages, such as: "Module ID lookup failed for module 646f6362 in TI_RM_GetString()".  I thought, maybe I can just just swallow them as done already with the equally useless IME messages.
2. UsbExplorer
I did some tests and apparently things are working as before. I mean, we can still transfer files in either direction by drag&drop, what to me is the important stuff besides being able to list the Nspire file system structure.
3. ndless 4.2
Alas, I was not able to install it, what in itself doesn't come as a big surprise given that the emulator doesn't identify itself as one of the latest (allowed) devices. Maybe some workaround can be found later.
4. Why this tiny update
a. People that are mostly interested in the Mathematics (not C/ASM programming or gaming) would preferably use the latest TI-OS version; b. kArmTI can still manage the latest TI-OS and is not yet a deprecated piece of software. Actually, I was expecting more troubles with OS4.2 given the past kArmTI experience with OS3.6 and O3.9.
 
Without further ado, hopefully kArmTI v1.81 will handle TI-OS4.2 better than v1.80, while remaining backward compatible with previous TI-OSes (well, at least some). I did not test it thoroughly, though.

Yea, that's true. It's a lot easier if you have things planned out instead of jumping in, making a mess of things, and trying to put a disjointed project together. That would probably lead to a lot of re-writing of code.
Yeah, but then again quoting @c4ooo "excuses are excuses." Taking the risk of being nasty to these friendly gents, I must admit that engineering, in general, likes results ;).

*Edit*: typo fixed, i hope.

But how can I move cursor?
I think that only 4 arrow keys look some deficient.
Thanks, but: You don't! That's the very idea.  When you really need it, oh well, just switch to the "large-finger layout', yup! ;)

Well some idiot over here by the name of pimath has been slacking at his (former) job, so it's time for a (non-project) community news roundup!

Meaning: pimath reborn from the ashes (like Phoenix- "a long-lived bird that is cyclically regenerated or reborn").
Well done mate! ;)

Looking great thus far! I specially relate to the last shot 'too old for this shit' :P. Any timeline to bring this into fruition?

Nice to see more mockups, but i wonder when you will start developing this project :P
Could it be that the curse of minotaur has haunted the programmer's ability to further develop the game?
Yeah, we've been waiting for action for some time. IMO AOC just got cursed, period!  ;D

I've been thinking about ways to improve the usability of the main portrait layout, because people with large fingers may have difficulties to pinpoint the right key, especially on phones.
The idea is to increase the size of the visible keys by hiding some less used ones. How? Providing two different layouts for the main portrait keypad. Then using a toggle button (upper-left corner) we could switch between the two depending on the usage.

Would there be any interest for this type of improvement or do you think it makes no sense and is not worth the trouble? Any other thoughts?

I've actually already done an experiment, on my MemoPad, and it looks like the picture below (graphics aren't ready yet, as usual).

I was just going through this and thinking is it really worth to tell what's up in my mind? Hell, why not?

Maybe we should try to figure out why people join a forum. Here are some reasons that cross my mind:
1. They like talking to other people, especially foreign and weird people (different native language, different going about life, etc);
2. They like programming in ASM, C, C++, AXE ,Python, whatever language (not really that important, after all is just a translation layer to the very crude (and dummy) machine language, anyway);
3. They like to show off their abilities to fellow programmers and friends;
4. Some, just like to criticize. Oh well, they don't really know how to write a single line of code. That's fine for me too, although sometimes you really need a lot of patience;
5. Other are just people looking for help in some aspect of they professional/student life.

You? Come on, surely you must have something to say. Simply do it, we'd love to hear what's up in your mind.

Just my 2 cents to try to stir up this thing up (After lunch thoughts are always lighter  ;)).

Hi folks,

This Carnival day I'm presenting you a small Nspiroid update (v1.24) which mainly addresses cosmetics and that I hope some of you will like.
It includes a custom color picker (a graphic one, yeah!) and more possibilities to tweak the various colors of quite a number of GUI elements in Nspiroid.
As usual, see for yourself and please let me know of any awkward issues you may (quite likely) find. The phones and tablets supported are the same as in v1.20.
This time I won't post any pictures ;).

Have a nice day.

@Larry Schroeder

After so many kind words, I'm really a bit speechless. Simple: thank you! I wish teachers and students can take advantage of your good advice and my modest contribution as well.
I'm in the middle of an examination period and time is very scarce, but I do visit this great site every single day.
