I suppose MiniUSB is more common ?
(As in, anyone can get their hands on a cable from whatever device they already own - might not be the case for MicroUSB)

The nice update has been discussed on tiplanet too (this topic, and some feedback/bug reports especially there too - I think google translator should do fine for this, nothing too fancy, and feel free to post in English there if needed) but I'd like to remind you (or maybe to let you know if you didn't know about it) that the sequence initial rank starting at 0 (the Prime wants 1 or more) is a very critical missing feature for French education, so could you pleeeease look into this for the next update ?

(I'm not personally affected by this anymore, but many French students (maybe other europeans particularly too) would be grateful for that !)

@DJ : I know this is probably going to sound ridiculous, but since the lock screen has been described by critor as like the tablet/smartphone ones, have you tried swiping directly instead of just using the keyboard (if that's what you did?). If that was the problem, maybe HP should put some label or something to tell people to swipe.

There's also the far-fetched way to directly send the navnet keyevent corresponding to the key... but.. yeah

edit : oh wait, that'd mean OS mainly, though ^^

Looks nice, I may buy one too

Anyway, back to the code. How should the keymap be implemented? I thought about a direct mapping of characters, so to type a ( you just have to type (. For {, { and so on.

Yeah, I think it would be a good idea. But we obviously still need buttons, too (for nspire-specific keys...)
When the core stuff are done, a skin-based thing (well, at least, a keyboard that looks like the real one) would be good too, like what KarmTI does (or to a lesser extent, nRemote).
I looked at Qt and frame/headless windows (such that custom window shape/frames could be done for the skin-based interface, if that's the plan) and it looked relatively easy (3-4 lines of code in mainwindow actually, for making the window "custom", with transparent background etc.). I think I have the details bookmarked somewhere...

The downside to this is that the shift key can't be controlled anymore. What do you think about that?

Hmm. Is there any specific application of this where it could be an annoyance ?
But once again, the mapping could be temp. disabled with an option, too...

Oh, so that's what the automatic subscription was about....

Did you get a message? If antonio hadn't posted here, I wouldn't know about the accident..

Got this:

It's compared to "BASIC" not because of its features, but rather because of what it is and what the other calculators have : an on-calc editable language that offers the ability to code algorithms and often games, too. And on the other calcs (the popular ones in high school, let's say), that'd be TI-Basic or CASIO-Basic. So on the HP Prime, the logical name for such a feature would be a "Basic" too, even if it's not.
Users who write such code on the Prime ought to know that, in reality it's called HPPL....

nLaunchy is based on nLaunch - so when the nLaunch's dev(s) show up at some point (we don't know them, so no idea when), there may be hope.
No update for now.
