This isn't exactly related, as have no idea, but why have you attached those two Axe progs?

What do you mean by 'make this a "project" for my account'? If you mean how some members' (like me) sigs have project status in them, you can just edit your sig to reflect your projects. If you want a user-bar, you can use this. If this isn't what you want, please elaborate.
Btw, I'm afraid I won't be able to help, mainly because I don't do a lot w/hardware. Sorry :(

For making a userbar in your sig, I'd recommend using this program from Omni's former staff, {AP}: http://userbars.removedfromgame.com/index.php
Good luck with your project! :D

ztrumpet, that's what I linked to. :P
happybobjr: I think yunhua98 was asking why they have the word "Snake" (abbr, of course) in the program name if they're Etch-A-Sketch programs

Do you have a cable you can salvage that can connect to the linkport?  Like a phone headset?

well, I can see one way with axe. You'd need someone to make a small hex piece of asm that can check the link port connectors, since axe can't use the link port yet (i think). Sounds like a cool idea, though. I recommend, instead of metal connectors which are rather unreliable, you could have a system like those rechargeable flashlights. Shake, and the metal gives a small charge to the wire, clearing the screen. You'd have to add some sort of current limiter, probably a resistor, to prevent killing your link port.

Happy hacking!

Interesting idea. Sadly I'm not good with my hand and hardware stuff so I would probably not attempt doing that, but it would be nice to see something like that in action :)

I am sure somebody else than me might be able to help. Most people seems to have finals now or are going into vacations, though, and Friday evenings are usually quiet on the forums, so it might take a while before someone can answer. Also, since Omnimaga is more calc game programming oriented than hardware oriented, I cannot guarantee someone will be able to answer, so it might be a good idea to check on http://www.cemetech.net or http://www.unitedti.org (which both got calculator hardware/modding sections) and if you cannot find anything there, you can also ask help there as well. Keep in mind that on the first forum, a few people aren't always as courteous as most people here, though.
