h4X0r Announces Gooey 89 and GIDE
Posted by Nick on 29 December 1999, 01:59 GMT

Gooey 89 Thumbnailh4X0r, in a newly revamped home page, has announced the pending release of Gooey 89 and GIDE. I'll let quotes from the page speak for themselves:

"I have created the first hacked freeware Flash Application, Gooey 89, as well as GIDE, also known as Gooey Integrated Development Envirnoment.
"The two programs work together to make a lethal programming nightmare for TI's SDK, which costs $300 USD! My two programs make TI-89 assembly programming easy! It offers everything [that] DoorsOS offers without the mess of libraries as all the usefull routines are built in! I have included all the possible documentation humanly possible, to allow a quick uptime for new and seasoned programmers. Not only that but if you ever have questions, I have setup a message board to ask questions and get answers! No longer will you have [to] plead with TI's incompetence."

A screenshot is available to the right; just click on the thumbnail. Versions of Gooey 89 and GIDE should (hopefully) be released soon.

Update (Nick): h4X0r has released a second screenshot of GIDE.

Update (Nick): h4X0r has updated his page again. Those of you who bothered to read this news item for this long, get ready for a treat. h4X0r has added animated screenshots to his Gooey 89 page. Enjoy! h4X0r says Gooey 89 and GIDE will be released shortly after Y2K. He's working on it as fast as he can, so sit tight. More to come from us soon.

I don't agree!

I don't quite agree with this vision of an operating system or something like that. I think that the TI-community had better program a new OS, with of course a visual computer SDK. But something like HP's OS, combined with TI's CAS and with a visual SDK would make things much better. This project, which I have already started, is called PowerTools. In fact, I find it silly to have TI fighting to limit programmers, and us programmers and users fighting to avoid those limitations. Moreover, TI's OS is really horrible (though the CAS and the calculator are fantastic). That's why I plan :
A) A new ROM, deleting unuseful parts of the TI-OS, and letting us more than 1 Mb of free memory.
B) A new OS, a bit like HP's featuring : 4-level grayscale, RPN and algebraic logic, HP-like menus, more key combinations (such as 2nd+Shift+Key), a faster and cleaner memory organization with subdirectories, multi-taskings, plug-ins, and more and more...
C) A FREE Visual Basic-like SDK, with events&co (so that it's very easy to program).
D) Anything, open to your suggestions (not really like TI with their 8kb-limit...).

I may release a beta SDK in 1-2 months, and a beta version in 2-3 months, I think (but it's quite approximative).
Look at http://www.lambda-technologies.fr.st for more information (French and English) and do not hesitate to mail me at paul.froissart@libertysurf.fr.

This is a very good idea, but how many people are willing to delete the TI-OS, the whole point of the calculator? I think that, if it's even possible like the way I stated above, to make a FLASH app for the TI-OS. This way, users wouldn't have to sacrifice their TI-OS.

Yeah, but:
1) It's illegal! Provided I don't use a pseudo and I don't want to do illegal things, I won't do it.
2) What use will there be having TI-OS? At 1st, it will be a simple program, and when it'll be finished, there'll be a new tib.
OK?

TCPA and the hoax
Gandalf_

Has anyone noticed that all the nay sayers are from TCPA. Could it be that they had something similar in mind. But H4xor bet them to the punch? Though I have no way to prove it. Then again they only have a image and I've looked over it. Pretty weak if you ask me. So would the people from TCPA care to explain why all the negtive comments come from you?

Awaiting a response

Perhaps, just perhaps, the TCPA as you want to say (only two members have really been outspoken) are the only ones smart enough to realize this is a hoax. Nah, I doubt it. Just ask BlueeCalx :).

You are correct that only a few members have been rather outspoken, and I did not mean to accuse the rest of TCPA. My deepest apologies to the rest TCPA.

i have noticed that too. i have also noticed that so far they are the only ones that i know of that have shelled out the cash to buy these development kits from TI. they prolly are kicking themselfs because now they can do it for free. they also havent replyed to this message unless then have emailed you. if they are so against and have been so out spoken before why have they crawln back into their shells? looks little suspicious to me.

p.s. h4x0r r0x0rs!

You have no idea what you are talking about. The 68k Sdk is not available to be bought yet!!! But somehow we shelled out cash for it? And as of no, nobody in the TCPA has bought the TI-83+ Sdk either. Please, get *some* of your facts straight.

No

I personnaly think GIDE is a hoax and not because of what Some TCPA member said (go and see one of the first messages posted here) ...

But if you love dreaming, it's ok for you ! (the awaking will be difficult !)
HAHAHAHA !

Re: Re: TCPA and the hoax

In my opinion you have selective vision. You see when i go to the top of the board I see Andrew Magness is the first to say its a hoax.

Or maybe the I'm looking at the wrong top?

Well, seeing as Nick suspended discussion of this on the main message board because it was making him look bad - I feel there's some important points about this being a "hoax".

1. h4x0r has been on the ticalc.org message boards for a while, definitely at least 3 months. a long time to set up a hoax.

2. nick edited the IRC log that he posted on the main page. tigalaxy.com has the real log, which shows nick manipulating h4x0r:
<BlueCalx> I can also post a news item on ticalc.org outlining in detail this IRC log and what you did on a89
<BlueCalx> since neither of us want that to happen, I'd suggest you stop being so insolent
since when does a ticalc.org coordinator own all ti programmers?

3. whomever "commented" the screen shot obviously does not know that someone can change the menus in any programming environment, be it VB, C, or other semi-visual languages.

4. why is it the SAME people criticizing h4x0r? TCPA people and Nick? they are too jealous to accept that someone may be stealing their fire.

after this incident i now see why bryan rabeler criticizes this site so much. read this message fast because it will soon be deleted by nick.

And now we can't reply to the other news.
I think h4x0r was banned from the news boards and that's why he's not responding.
