ASM / Re: A Couple of Technical Questions

As far as I am aware, yes. (Until an interrupt is triggered, of course.)

I meant relative to the whole instruction. :P Does doing that make the hardware implementation simpler?

1. LDIR does not change PC until BC=0. So, if the processor is interrupted while LDIR'ing, it just returns to performing LDIR.
2. More or less, yes, though in a low-power mode.

Distribution to friends?
But there isn't too much need for integration with the presence of DuckSign.

I myself fairly recently installed Gentoo and with some luck will soon entirely replace Fedora with it.
Anyone besides jkag (IIRC) and me use Gentoo?
Edit: Given that some options in the poll have only one vote, someone mind adding Gentoo to it?

Alternatively, BrandonW also created a modified 2.43 .8xu to be accepted by 1.03, which means you don't have to go through the risks of boot-code modding.

Fedora for developing too (they only install Fedora @ my school :( )
Better than my school; they have a cut-down version of XP.

Names help indeed. With modern languages comments are less necessary since it's often apparent what the code does. :) The extreme version of the maintainability problem is not knowing why some complex/heavily optimized assembly code that you wrote is buggy (which has happened to me, hence my caution <_<)

Have either of you ever successfully understood your own code after not having seen it for long periods of time? Coding w/o comments might be fine just to get working code, but it does awful things to maintainability. ;)
(Of course, both of you have probably heard this before; note that this is meant to be constructive criticism, not anything negative, and that I'm not saying directly that you're doing it wrong. :))

TI Z80 / Re: zStart - an app that runs on ram clears
« on: September 08, 2011, 12:49:37 am »
Would it be possible to have an option to turn these deleted versions into nondeleted Appvars?
In-place, no. A new appvar would have to be created with a copy of the contents. (Note that "turn ... into" implies in-place)

Calculator C / Re: Problem with C code
« on: September 08, 2011, 12:47:25 am »
Just as a side note, it is more efficient to do ++w.  So if you don't need the value of w before it's incremented, then use ++w instead.
Except any good compiler will compile "w++" to the same as "++w" if the result isn't used. (I know the discussion ephan linked says that this might not be the case sometimes, but that's for C++) If precedent helps, I've always seen it written postfix for the loop increment.

Did you buy a silverlink cable to go with it? Else you won't be able to transfer programs etc.

What a sec, did jkag just get banned?
Since you ask, yes, he has a 7-day ban for what should be obvious reasons.
Just as a warning, don't bash his actions, as this won't help anything ;) (not to mention that several others have already done so <_<)
Edit: ninja'd

From Google: "concord: 1. Agreement or harmony between people or groups."
Basically, you and I are in agreement about this. (inasmuch as I can tell) :)

Yeah it definitively needs to be said in a way that is less offensive as Jkag's. For example your comment should be prefixed with a comment saying you have nothing against gay people. I just think that on Omni, bigotry should be frowned upon.
I read [present tense] this and agree wholeheartedly :)
Okay, we have two people in concord, who's next? ;D
