You press alpha or something to get to number mode.  I got it to work.

Doesn't work (not in the new version).

Bug #2: choosing Remove resets all your variables, including those in archive No, this isn't right. Just a stupid mistake on my own part. Sorry for the confusion! /me goes to stab himself

Okay, how do I say this... It's not aboutnam at all, it was my own stupid mistake for pressing the wrong key at the wrong time. And they're not even gone :w00t:

So sorry I thought it was your program that did that. It's done me no wrong, sorry about the mess!

Ok, so on an 83+, when you quit the program. Make sure you don't hold the CLEAR button for very long. If you hold CLEAR all the way through the ram clear, it will make it appear as if everything in your archive is gone. It is not. Just clear ram again and it will come back.

This is a safety feature of the OS so that you can recover from a corrupted archive.

Maybe have MODE quit instead of CLEAR?

Better.


Update! Now, the program won't quit until you have released all the keys. This is to prevent 83+'s from entering the no-archive boot. If you've already installed it in your certificate, this is the exact same program, so you really don't need to download it.

I may be 3 pages late, but this thing looks awesome, nice program thepenguin! This is a very interesting piece of software.

Any word on Nspire 84+ Keypad compatibility?

I think that would be quite hard... Anything that writes directly to flash has to be done in a different way when using the Nspire.

Are there any risks?

I'm just going to have a good laugh about that and not worry about it. I have never even looked at a Nspire 84+ OS. So I don't know how to unlock flash, I don't know the specifics behind writing to flash, and I'm not even sure those calculators have certificates. They probably do, but I don't know either way.

Nice I will try this with my calc too. This will make my classmates jealous. :P

At this point, I this program has been run on real 83+'s, 84+'s, and 84+SE's. So while there are some risks if you pull your batteries out half way, it's looking like it is very safe.


Oh, and for everyone who can't figure out how to type numbers. You press 2nd
