tiDE / Re: tiDE Team
« on: January 06, 2011, 11:23:11 pm »
No one is to touch tiDE until we can talk about it.  I spent two hours fixing the source tree.  I'm not happy.  I thought I made it clear how important certain things were.
Well, good luck with your project. This is why team stuff is difficult. If you wanted, you could just write a program that ran on their system that force-uploaded/downloaded every hour.

That actually doesn't save much space, right? (Unless prgm is a 2 byte token and you use program names that are longer than 1 character?)

Program names for fonts have to be 8 characters long, no less.  However, the big issue is how does the calculator know what program is mapped to 0 and what program is mapped to 1 unless you tell it?  And if you tell it, that takes a lot of space.
Not necessarily. I was thinking of having it be in the font files itself, but that might have conflicting fonts.  So then I thought of a font name that was just for that program.  You could even have primary and secondary names in the file, and still save bytes.  So, file prgmA, and prgmB have a primary name of "SADTest2", and a secondary name of "Hellowrd".  If SADTest2 has, say, two files that both claim to be the 1 file, then it tries the secondary name.

Does this make sense at all?

I guess it's better that way, though, especially if someone uses the function over 500 times in a game. It doesn't sound like much, but 500 bytes can make a big difference. Sometimes, someone may only have 800 bytes of RAM left to run his game.

You know, you've got a point there.
Actually, why not have a way to map all your programs to some value or something.  Like have PrgmA map to 0, PrgmB map to 1, etc, then you could do:
Code: [Select]
int("0
int("1
for A and B respectively. Saves bytes, at least, and int remains as int and won't get confused.

I think it was delayed until Feb, thanks to Sir's parents. D:
Yes, but he gets to start working on it on the 4th.  But considering he hasn't posted, he probably has gotten his phone taken away again.

Indeed. I hope most people stay around for a while longer since there's a quite awesome group of users right now. Activity went lower but it's still rather high and not too much either (although higher isn't bad, I just had less time to check new stuff lately XD). :P
Awww, DJ says we're awesome and stuff...

Anyway, There are some awesome projects, too.  Todays the 4th, too, which means for KOS...

... Okay, I care slightly less now. Wherever the point that you take my dinner of you arms is, that's the level of caring you get. ;-)

Sorry, netham45, a mans gotta eat.

Wouldn't jumps have an issue if you had to jump to a different page?  It would mean a lot of ram page swapping, wouldn't it?

Nope, if its only 2 pages, there are no other pages.  Page 1 is $4000-$7FFF and page 2 is $8000-$BFFF.  A jump to say... $9001 would simply be jp $9001.  You just have to have your orgin on page 2 to .org $8000 and .org $4000 on page 1.
Note that a bunch of routines wouldn't be available in this mode.  Interrupts as well.

Wi-Fi would require a Wi-Fi dongle, and possibly an external power supply as well as a lot of processing power. It would probably be possible to use Wi-Fi in some way, but it might not be very fast or efficient.
Fixed. Unless you can get one to work in under 100 mA, then you could do wifi.

Come to think of it, it could be an interesting project to build a USB WiFi dongle that fits perfectly into the Nspire's little insert.
Spoiler For Spoiler:
Is "dongle" the technical name?  I've always wondered...
No, it would just be an adapter. A dongle, in correct definition, is a small, well, dongle, you must plug in to a computer to make a piece of software run. (Its an anti piracy protection.)
That would be very cool, but it could be also done using the bottom port, with some sort of mechanism to hold itself in place so it doesn't come out and fits perfectly in the spot.
It's also used for bluetooth adaptors. (dongle)
