Looks awesome and if I had some money I'd get it.
I'd gladly participate in a contest to win it. Also you may want to post a link to the page its hosted on so people know where to go buy it if they want to and have the money

I know I've suggested this before but maybe some more computer dev. I know this is primarily a calc site but computers would reach lots of people and could generate lots of activity

Not so sure, because the fact is that hardly anybody gives a damn about the Nspire platform... Did anybody do for the Nspire what was done for quite a number of closed platforms (starting with gaming consoles), i.e. port Linux mere weeks after the release of arbitrary code execution on the platform ? No, and more than two years later, we're not remotely close to that state. Do we have a chain of ready to use exploits, and wait for TI to close the hole of the day to release a new version, by a dozen days (often two or three days) after the release ? Not at all. Do we have a usable graphical library (a need which was identified from the beginning) ? Several weeks ago, the answer was "no". Do we have a program loader with relocation support (another need identified a couple years ago) ? Again, the answer used to be "no" until very recently. This list could go on. And yes, I'm criticizing myself (as being part of a community that does a relatively bad job, compared to a number of other communities throughout the history of computing), even if I tried to do something about the math stuff, the document system, the program loader, the graphical library, etc.
Why is it that hardly anybody cares about the Nspire platform ? I don't know, but it's a fact. Another fact is that TI is (relatively) safe is a consequence of the fact we (collectively) are not trying (yet), rather than being a consequence of the fact they're making a decent job protecting their platform...
It's not just that nobody gives a damn its also that some people who do have no idea what they could do to help. If there was something I could do to help I gladly would but I doubt I know anywhere near enough to be able to help. If you guys working on the development team tell me something I could do I would gladly help. I like ndless and would love for it to not be stopped because TI is too boneheaded to realize we arent trying to do anything bad.

yep it makes them much more responsive and magically able to complete code on their own once the idea iis there

Awesome send me some of your peanut soup. I hear it helps you program better and I could really use that right now

AHelper I'll test in a minute whether that will touch .g3p/b files. Have to backup my prizm first

AHelper who knows why they banned it on tests. they obviously didnt think that you would have note taking on calcs...
and to go with AHelpers post there are already projects for image and video viewers whats the harm in allowing us to do it this way also? It will allow us to have games with the images is about all that will happen. Casio has reason from regular image viewers for the same reason as this so I truthfullly think this is the easiest for them.
@DJ I am able to see that it may hurt the community all I was saying is that either way once this is finished if casio is going to act they will. If it is held to a few people or not so why not release it publicly. The trust thing is important but if we show them we just want to use it for games they'll just toss it in with all the other things we do. also I do not cheat and I do not advocate cheating. I work hard to pass the classes at my school fairly and take offense that you suggest that I am encouraging or advocating cheating by suggest that a tool to convert from CG-20 to CG-10 images should be released publicly. And the thing on putting the source in spam would just be to make it harder for casio to find the method used. Though if you want to build trust you could release it with the program so they could fix it easier if they so chose.

That is what I propose. I say we release it and if casio wants to they can block it. I doubt they would go as far as blocking all dev though. They'd just block the ability to create custom images on cg-10's. I believe it would be better to allow everyone who wants to use it have it because either way once its made casio will probably try and block it. They wont have much of a choice. Even the limited release would still force them to act. You may release it closed source though to make it harder for them to combat it and have the source put in spam or something
[offtopic]We really should have a forum area where we can discuss real topics for members with 500+ posts or something like that. It would be useful for things like this especially
