Re: A89: Basic -- Proposition/ldea (please read important)
Why is the list just for assembly anyway? Back when there were only three
calculators, having one basic list and two assembly lists might have made
sense, but now there are six (82+) graphing calculators, each with assembly,
and a basic list trying to serve them all. Why not just have one list for
each calculator, or maybe one basic list and one assembly list for each
calculator. What does everyone else think?
I do think, however, that programmers need to work together more. Have any
of the shell developers put in a date option? It would most likely need to be
manually updated, but you could put a little square next to the date that
would add one day. This way every program could access the correct date.
Is anyone working on a shell for the TI-89? Has anyone been able to get a
shell that runs multiple programs at the same time? What projects are being
worked on (besides games)? And has anyone been able to get a TI-89 yet? I'm
still (somewhat patiently) waiting :)
I'm also waiting for someone to hack into the flash roms :)
