adn then to page eachother with a small Beep.. well that will take up
all 28 K or MORE!. to make this work you will need to write a NEW
trensfer protocol that will compensate for the additional people.
because the TIProtocol that the calc uses now only makes room for 2
calcs with not interferance. we need to build one that will compensate
for interfearence, multiple people at once, and paging.. damn that will
eb one HUGE program! and trying to transfer actual SOUND from one side
to another and having it plaied on that side.. NEVER! hehe that is
almost funny to think of it. it would use 28k of mem in 1 sec. and the
beep or "page" would be amazing in itself because you will need to make
a daisy chain Y addapter that will have different addresses for the
different things on it. it would require almost a seperate network card
to addon to it. (which would eb incredably cool! cause you could trow on
ROM to stor up data for latter use..) well I cant see the Page thing
ever happening wiht the beep but you couls have the screen flash a few
times when you are paged.. that wouldent bee that hard. about how much
does ASM compress once it is written? cause you are going to use MORE
then 28000 key strokes to make that program. (I think) well if you want
ANY help or if you want a flow chart on how I plan to make the program
to work Please E-mail me cause I have it all planned out! :) its very
logical but I need to know how the TI prosses's data and how much it can
handle in a burst. and what are the different specs for the com rutines
for it? those are all things that are going to determin how this program
will be wrote. ok well I am really pumped about this Idea! and if I
couls program in ASM I would... but I still need to lean. >:( darn!
ANY questions or comments ... Please E-mail em!
