Yes, there will be an emulator.  Heck, there already is an emulator, it's using Stetson until our own custom emulator is good enough.

It's a .NET emulator by Ben Ryves.  He was nice enough to give me the source code, and I'm using it as a placeholder until the official emulator is done.

Because is is only partially done, and he discontinued it.  I had to request the source specifically - it isn't open source.  It doesn't support flash commands, either.

Here's its page: http://benryves.com/projects/stetson
"The only place to find information on this short-lived project is in the journal."

It may have died, but now it can see new life in tiDE until tiDEmulate is done.

Actually, I'm starting from scratch the emulator isn't very good, and I don't like the way it works.  But I am improving it a little here and there as a temporary thing.

I have a few features, some of them stupid, but it's worth to give it a try:

> The Asm assembler should report compiling errors (like Spasm) and give an idea of how they can be solved, like some compilers do (which could be done with a database, maybe);
> The editor should highlight Calculator Assembly words instead of Assembly words (like Notepad++), because they're not exactly the same, I think;
> Maybe include a HEX editor/compiler, since HEX is another of way of programming in Assembly;
> > (all these are if HEX is included);
> > HEX<->Decimal<->Binary converter (not hard, I am working on one at the moment in C#);
> > ASCII-2 converter;
> > HEX commands database;
> (back to regular ones);
> Will there be Nspire Asm? I doubt, but just want to know.

If Sir decides HEX is useless to include, I will respect his opinion and concentrate on Asm itself
