You need to check dates before posting, because this one project has been dead for long. X.x

I believe a better version of the language was done for the ALgebra FX series, but it was never ported to other calcs and the FX-9860G one is not finished, not to mention the last time I checked the server on which the last build was hosted (2006-07) shutted down.

Also, now Axe pretty much obsoletes this for the 83+. On the 83+ MLC would have been cool, but the fact it used individual ALPHA characters for command names would have caused the source code for programs to be horribly massive.

Yeah as for the 83 version, I don't think I will work on it much anymore. Axe is far and away the best option. I may just finish up what I had left with it so you still could make stuff and have it portable between the 86 version.

It might be cool if what you had and the source got released, in case someone wanted to finish it. Maybe it may not be as practical as Axe due to the source size but it could still make great arcade games and make it easier to port them accross other calc models.

But how did you do so? O.O

The topic is at the very bottom of the list, or close... or did you accidentally click sort from oldest to newest or even by nickname? ???

I mean it's hard to not notice a topic is old when it's on page 5 or 6, especially when the quick reply box shows a warning that the topic is old in red fonts. <_<

sorry :P

won't happen again.  I guess it did put it backwards, but I saw no red font, unless I wasn;t paying attention like usual 0x5!

Strange, normally it shows it. I guess maybe it got disabled or maybe it's only when using the full reply box. I can't check because I am admin so it doesn't show up for me.

No, it's not- it's been dead for a couple of years in fact:

The userbars in my sig are links embedded links.

And in addition to calculator (and Python!) stuff, I mod Civilization 4 (frequently with Python).

Yeah, here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-Platform_Language_for_Calculators

Apparently it was created in August 2006: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Multi-Platform_Language_for_Calculators&oldid=72031418

Too bad it's dead :( The last edit to the Wikipedia article was last year.

Ah I see now. Wow that seems pretty outdated. X.x I am surprised it still exists. O.O
