It's still there, and I'd say there's a wave effect, but it is definitely much weaker and harder to notice.
And yeah, For(A,Ymin,Ymax,deltaY:Horizontal A:End is about the fastest and smallest way to blacken the screen.

Stupid TI-Connect, it seems like it will only receive signed apps, too (400 bytes is about the length of the signature). Better luck with TILP? Waiting fifteen or however many minutes to sign it on calc is ridiculous.

I agree, this could be rather useful. But yes, what token to use as a quote?

GetTokLen, IsA2ByteTok, PutTokString, and Get_Tok_Strng are the desired routines. Unfortunately, I can't document them right now, so at least someone can use these to help you further.

That is falling out of use, too. (ships and countries being called "she", etc.)
Zera: some older languages (like Latin) lacked true articles. (you could say "this/that dog" but never specifically "the dog") Interestingly, all the Romance languages I know of have them. I wonder what Indo-European language will lose them first...

I'm taking Latin (Latin 4 next year), which partially explains my grammatical knowledge. :)
It's not too bad once you get used to it, though it is still a pain. (Non-living things have pretty unpredictable gender! yay! :P)

Whee, grammar! Virtually nobody uses it in speech today, and, as you said, it is becoming less common in writing.
First, all nouns lost their cases, now the relative pronoun has lost its, and the pronouns are probably next (and maybe the indicator on verbs will disappear too.) On a related note, the subjunctive is vanishing too.
So, who wants me to say: "me go to the store"? :P
Wait, I think I may have missed the point of this topic. I go off discussing grammar, while you were discussing subject and object. Oops.
* calcdude goes elsewhere to be a Grammar Nazi :P

That'd be cool. Too bad most people don't have the adapter necessary to listen to sound, though. :(
If you do this successfully (most likely), I'll look into getting an adapter. (And, offtopic, a silver-link cable, which I want for other purposes)
Any progress lately, Builderboy?

241. You installed Unity on your TI-81
242. You have a robot that typed it in for you
243. You interfaced directly with the calc hardware to type it in at superhuman speeds.

Well, it's slower because it's being emulated, rather than just run. The only calc for which you may get almost-normal speed is the 81, since it was only 2MHz in the first place. I don't think the 81 ROM is made into an 86 one, but I'm not sure.

You do mean on a physical calc, right? The emu isn't that fast. (Not to mention that it stops being memory-mapped...)
The only thing about the 86 is that BASIC is slower than on an 85. The extra RAM probably makes it worth it, though.
Edit: 333th post. Half evil :P

Yes it does, it's one of the Nspire 84+ emu OSes.
Edit: He has a real 84+(SE), and he mistyped it. Okay.

That would be newer versions. Chrome supports a very similar feature, while Firefox forces you to mask your whole session at a time. (I don't use Opera or other browsers)
Is there any hope of this returning to topic? :P

73, no. Emu8x doesn't use flash (except when saving current emulated calc RAM contents.)
81 is currently supported, though only v2.0
I've seen it proposed to just shift around RAM if you have more than 16KB free, though nobody's implemented it.

It does, seeing as I'm the one who first brought the no XRAM issue up after noticing Emu8x didn't work.
