Btw Holmes221b don't worry too much about people being a bit surprised on the forums. It's because so far only 5 girls signed up on the forums in 2 years and none of them are doing calculator programming (unless I am wrong about Eeems' gf) and out of 400 members, that is not a lot. It's nice to see some girls interested into calculator programming. I feel hobbies shouldn't always be reserved to specific people in particular :)

So, did we scare the girl away by making her feel like she's a curiosity rather than a real programmer?  Holmes, are you coming back? :)

I hope not -.-

I hope she stays on the forums (and code)

Maybe just busy, though

We didn't scare her away, right? (I feel bad if we did...)
Yeah, nobody should be scared off of the forums. Come back! :)
Well, we'll see sooner or later, I guess..

More like I was completely mortified that I had managed to reset my calculator's memory the way I did.
Lesson learned--Never deliberately code your calculator to crash when you haven't properly backed up the programs you're working on at the time.

Welcome back! :)
And what did you do, exactly? Was it more than just a RAM clear?

Hey Welcome back Holmes! Did you try running some random assembly hex or accidentally the entire OS? It sucks that you lost progress, though...

Another thing: When backing up, it's a good idea to copy them on a computer and flash drive, too, in case your calc archive corrupted. Also it's possible to crash a calculator with no assembly.

I pressed the wrong combination of buttons (I don't remember now which ones, though).

Needless to say, I don't write the backup copies of my programs on loose leaf paper any more, though (I don't have a link cable, so I have to get creative with backing up stuff on my calc).

Also the Chemitab idea is awesome. Just as an head up: there was an official one in Flash APP format by Texas Instruments back in 1999-2001 too. However, it was a paid app that couldn't be sent from one calc to another. I don't know if it's still available anywhere anymore (it used to come with 83+SE calcs). It's nice to see a new one that is both pic-free and freeware.

Wait it can't be sent from calc to calc? But I got it and sent it around just fine last year.

(I don't own a link cable)

Hate it when I'm in that situation :(

Anyway, good luck on these. Is Chemitab a periodic table with a look-up function (to jump to an element)?

I pressed the wrong combination of buttons (I don't remember now which ones, though).

How? Do you program ASM too, or did you just try one of the ON+ reset combos?

@holmes: WHAATTT? A girl has appeared with an interest in calculators whose boyfriend is not on the same forum? :D

hoo-ah, just in time too for the romantic period of the omnimaga's year end party of add word. and .the_game files threads!

and, good luck with your projects too of course ;)

sounds great!  how exactly does the multitab one work though?  I don't think I understood completely, does it come up with a picture of a multiplication table starting at a given point defined by the user?

Maybe she triggered one of those TI-OS glitches or she tried a key combination by guess that happened to be 2nd, +, 7, <, ENTER then 2. (Full mem reset). Maybe she changed batteries and pressed ON+DEL, though.

Not really, as that post was several months old. :P
