I'm dumping here one quick hack I put together one night for whoever who might find it interesting. It's called Ndless Commander (à la Midnight Commander), a Ndless file browser. Well actually browsing files and having a preview of the file is the only thing it can do, as I never really finished it (as said in the nSDL thread, I'm leaving soon so I won't have the time to take care of it myself). If anyone's up for the task, be my guest. You can basically venture into the dark abyss of your TI-Nspire's memory.

Screenshots, as usual:







Download's attached (TNS & source code). (oh and it uses nSDL for those who want to play around with the source)

Indeed, thanks

The preview feature is awesome \o/

hmm, those screenshots are from the nspire prototype? or does it work for every version? i'll try it soon

Works on every version. You can access the TI-Nspire's root directory using the program, that's what's lurking there.

Looks nice, can't wait to download!

Bug: on a CX CAS, OS 3.1.0.392; went to /phoenix/syst/poweroff and got a reboot...

EDIT: Wait, maybe it's supposed to do that? idk

Did you move the cursor on a certain file or did it reboot right after opening the directory?

Also a bug report, only on the /ndless/ folder tho (so far), when I go down the list of files, the list doenst follow (I mean, it doesnt scroll), so we don't see the cursos anymore, since it's offscreen.

I didn't bother to implement scrolling because of lack of time. The code is very short and it shouldn't be that hard to implement however. As I mentioned up there, it's an unfinished work, and it's nowhere near being a fully functional file browser (and something I won't be updating myself).

(In other news, I wonder if the exammode/ folder could be altered somehow to modify the PTT mode...)

Alrighty finished my French exam today (there's nothing I hate more than that, the French style dissertations are completely useless poetic babbling, pseudo-philosophy, write-as-much-as-you-can bullshit analysis on some oh-so-deep subject ("elaborate the similarity between universality and originality with close reference to [...]" and other crap like that), doesn't suit the Finnish mind; but enough of the rant, that's another matter) and decided to speedcode and improve whatever I could. Unfortunately fgetc() (and consequently, fgets() & co.) is buggy and so I couldn't finish writing the full screen file content viewer. Deleting folders worked well (assuming the folder was empty) but it for some reason did not let me remove any files except a few (themes.csv?) so I left that also out. So at the end I only implemented file list scrolling and used some quick hacks to get around the fgets() bug, so it shouldn't reboot anymore.

Screenshot as usual:

Aaand, in less than an hour, another quick update. In the preview it showed some weird character at the end of every line, that's gone. I also removed the message box as it caused some weird behavior (or inconvenient) so I replaced it with a home-made message box. There's also some colors because everybody loves colors:



Download in first post (I removed the older ones).
