The Big Merge
Posted by Niklas on 9 April 2002, 15:20 GMT

No, ticalc.org is not merging with another site. What's new is that through some of Magnus' continuous improvements, the filearchives now support merging of files. This means that if an author has multiple versions of the same game or program in our archives, the old versions can be merged into the latest one while still keeping the precious download statistics.

To get this done for your files, simply contact filearchive@ticalc.org with the necessary information (author ID, file names and, if you can, file ID:s).

Update (Niklas): Note that we can't merge file contents, just file statistics. So to add stuff to an old file you still need to upload a complete replacement.

I know this isn't relevant to "the big merge" but it has to do with programs. I downloaded an open source program and sent it to my 86 through asm studio, but it said that it "couldn't open the communications port." I went into graph link and tried again and it said the same thing. I even switched the comm ports (I tried all 4). What's wrong? the calc IS hooked up to the computer. I'm not that stupid.

I did reboot but it still comes up with "can't open the comm port." I do how to check to "make sure no other applications are in use?"

Pretty soon TI is going to end the offer, citing abuse (and a shortage of copies, hehe).

Did anyone see the new shell the for 82, ACE? It's really cool. Patrick made Pheonix for it, and it's really cool. I beat it twice on Easy Mode/Slow Mode.
