no, he meant a C program on the PC or Mac to translate the .82P file to a
.txt (the one in the G-Link software uses TI's tokenizing).
It would be very easy to make this, and it wouldn't take up tons of mem.
It's my guess that you can make a good program with full ASCII with about
(?) 1K. I don't really know, but I plan to make one (after LitesOut and
releasing my "secret" :-) project [that's allowed isn't it?] ). As for
Gerad, you just have to have it say "memory full" when it is full :-P. And
it would create a new .82P file for each text.
And there *IS* a qwerty keyboard on the calc (figure it out...).
just wait a few weeks and I'll release a text editor. Then on to Dr. Mario
for me.
