Yeah true I guess. I think as long as it won't take 10 seconds to compile 5000 bytes of source we're fine. Plus those who used TASM to compile ASM on old computers are used to much slower compiling speed anyway. On my Pentium II 350 MHz, it took 4 seconds just to compile Hello World. I'm not sure how much faster it is on newer PCs, though.

Hey, using OTBP Assembler, it takes about 30 seconds to compile Hello World.  Mosaic does the same program in less than one.  I'm excited to finish it.

Lol, funny how a 6 or 15 Mhz calc can compile an ASM program faster than a computer. Plus you don't need to go through the process of loading the file on Wabbitemu all the time, meaning saving even more time and the only thing to worry about is making sure your data is safe on calc (CalcUtil I guess) in  case your program contains errors.

Bit shifts are not the best way to go for division since it takes 4 bytes each shift.  That's why I didn't optimize higher divisions of 2.  But now that I think about it, multiplication as a method of dividing is small enough to optimize.  I'll add that next time.

Which kind of division is called bit shift? Do you mean the one going like A/2/2/2/2?

Well on some days projects get posted in a lot and if one gets no updates for a few days, it drops in the list pretty fast. Half of the first project topics page has posts from 2010.

This is why the new double posting rule that was added in march on Omnimaga is 1 hour between posts for authors projects rather than 6

EDIT:

I have a suggestion for one of the future update, that is not for Axe app itself, but either the doc or another help file: a list of all compiling error codes possible, their descriptions and possible causes and possible solutions for most common cases.

Definitely will add that doc when finished.  Currently, I have VERY non-descriptive errors like TI-Basic.  There are only about 15 possible errors right now, but I plan to have about 50-100 when finished to be really specific about the exact part of the code that has the problem.

well, the issue, though, with line number, is that for massive programs it's hard to count until that line if the error is at like line 500 x.x

What if it displayed the line in question on the screen?
Like in small text...?

ERROR: BAD SYMBOL - LINE 6

I don't belive you can store to <theta> with Axe.  At least, I couldn't do it in version 0.1.2.
