Miscellaneous / Re: End of activity peak?
« on: May 21, 2010, 03:26:07 pm »
I'm still in school and will be for the next 3ish weeks.  The teachers are working us pretty hard.  I think it's exams and the end of school for most people. :)

Another good suggestion is to have 89-style line clearing, where pressing clear from the middle of a line removes everything from there to the end, and pressing it from the beginning or end clears everything.
Omnicalc does this on the 83/84s, but only on the homescreen.  I never really liked it, but I know some people did.  Could this be another option? ;D
* ZTrumpet like options... :D

wouldn't undo takes a lot of memory, though?
Unfortunately, it probably would. =/

Oh, ouch.  I hope TI keeps making calcs...
I hope Ndless 2.0 comes out soon.  It'll be great when Asm can be ran on 2.0. :)

Cool!  This is really neat! :D

I am most likely going to keep all menus, controls, and menus the same as in the regular TiOS, just so i dont confuse people or experienced speed coders.
Idea: for the CLEAR button, I would add an option in the BASIC editor where by default, the calc asks you to confirm if you try to delete a line of code. A major issue about the current BASIC editor is that people accidentally their code because the CLEAR key is too close to the down arrow. In some cases (example, when entering an extremly long string of character, a huge matrix or the like) it's almost as bad as a RAM clear.
Could you have an undo (like [ctrl] + [z] on a comp) to protect in case of this?  [Alpha] [Del] maybe...

Yeah that sounds like a good idea :) Like maybe if you have 15 or more characters in a line it asks you to confirm. 
I think this is a bad situation regardless, so could you have an option menu to turn the clear to delete on and off.  The clear confirm should ask you to confirm (imho) if there are any characters on the line (it's not blank.)

Is this meant to emulate the 84+ oses, 83+ oses, or 84+ MP os?

I think it is better to make [2nd] [Left or Right] should go to the being or end of line and [2nd] [Down or Up] go one page down or one page up.
Because if wordwrap is off, a way to go the end of line is useful and is more intuitive that [Down] goes one page down.
Wouldn't it be better to have [Alpha] [Down or Up] to go one page down or one page up since that's what happens in the normal Ti-basic editor?

Computer Programming / Re: My schoolwork got rejected...
« on: May 20, 2010, 05:07:25 pm »
Axe right now is 6770 lines of code for instance, which is over 100 pages if printed.  One way I keep it organized is by overusing macros.  You should see some sections of code are entirely macros to make it more readable.  I'll attach a screen shot to show you what I mean.  You wouldn't even be able to tell that its asm:
Wow, that's awesome!  It doesn't even look like asm. :D

Imagine a project of 6k lines of this and the migraine it would cause, even if its faster. Also, comments are always a good idea whenever clever code is employed.
I can imagine; I just printed out the source to The Penguin 77's Tetris Marathon (64 pages) and Quigibo's Puyopuyo (49 pages) in an attempt to learn Asm.
You printed 113 pages of asm code!  :o That's dedication!
Thanks. :D  I've also printed out Fishy by Iambian and Orbit by The Penguin 77.  Oh, and a little tutorial called Asm in 28 days. ;D  Asm in 28 has its own dedicated 3 inch binder. ;D

Welcome here!  It's cool that someone that speaks completely in French is on Omnimaga. :D

Have some complimentary peanuts! ;D

This sounds awesome!  I'm glad it didn't die. :)

so i am officially doing the one line scrolling thing
Awesome!  I like that idea.  Could [2nd] [Left or Right] go to the next page of code instead of to the end of the line?

Other Calculators / Re: What is *Pure* TI-Basic
« on: May 19, 2010, 10:07:24 pm »
Wow, I really opened a debate, as the poll says it's almost even. :)  My opinion is if at run time only basic program(s) are run.  I personally think you can use lowercase letters, hacked vars, and other characters not available without Asm.  This is interesting and it shows the different opinions out there.  :)  Time for more debating... ;D

Other Calculators / What is *Pure* TI-Basic
« on: May 19, 2010, 07:39:55 pm »
I'm curious as to what you all believe "Pure" TI-Basic is.  Can you use Asm programs to help write it, as long as when the program is ran it runs only basic code, or for *pure* basic you cannot use Asm at any time.

For instance, can you use this program while developing to use more than 10 picture variables, or just be using this program do you compromise *pure* basic?  I realize this is a petty claim, but I want to know what you guys think. :)

The Axe Parser Project / Re: Features Wishlist
« on: May 19, 2010, 07:20:13 pm »
Yeah, I've got that working already now, except there's a really weird bug I'm trying to fix.  The actual sort routine is very small and fast, its only 21 bytes and sorts a 256 element list in about 1/4 of a second in 6MHz mode.  I'll probably make it larger though to handle sizes greater than 256.  I'm using insertion sort.

By the way, the main focus of the next version will be on variables.  I already have Ans saving and loading working, I expect to have strings, real variables, Picture files, and other things like that all readable and writable.  And I'm also going to add the ability to create programs.  It's possible some existing syntax might change but that seems unlikely at the moment.
Awesome!  I'm going to like these new commands. ;D

calcdude: Excellent visual. :D

Ouch, I hope you can figure out how to make it work. :)
Ti-Newb: Yay, I'm glad it works! ;D

This is pretty nice!  I like how this is coming so far!  As always, nice work Hot Dog! ;D
