Indeed. Also I want an HP Prime but I think an Omni member living in USA will have to buy it for me then ship it to me, since no US store seems to ship them in Canada and every European store are overpriced (like $50 more than in USA).

Also I had in mind to port some of my future xLIB games to the Prime.

If only shipping wasn't that expensive... in Canada there were two 84+CSE sales with the calc at $129.99 and $139.99 at two places (before taxes), which would have been like €90. I bet in USA it was even cheaper.

Anyway I hope that xLIB comes along nicely right now. :) I have begun getting as many sprites and tiles as I can for future use. Hopefully I can cram as many as possible in the sprite sheet space. :P

I have implemented drawLine and drawRectangle (which just uses drawLine :)). I havent tested drawing offscreen that much but it should work.

Simple screenie of a basic program randomly drawing rectangles...



Now to do fillRectangle!

ooh this will be useful! Also I'm glad that you are adding filled rectangles as well. :)

DJ suggested that i implement a RAND function since the TIOS Rand is reputed to be quite slow. It will give you a random number between 0 and the upper bound you specify (<=255).

I did a rough test drawing 1000 rectangles, TIOS came in at 1m57sec, xLIB was 52sec which is enouraging.

Here are 2 screenies side by side drawing 100 random rectangles. Left is TIOS Rand, right is xLIB Rand.

Yeah. To explain how slow the TI-OS one is, it is often used as a replacement to For(Z,0,25:End to save a few bytes. I got the idea for an xLIB one only after noticing the rectangles were a little slow-ish, though.

Here is a demo of the screen shift function, used for a simple earthquake effect.

Very nice, but is it me or does there seem to be a shifting bug during map transitions? ???
