A89: Re: what can the rest of us do to help?



Any help on getting a complete rom from a caculator would be a great help... But remember, once we do it is going to be a bit different because the roms are written in C++. (or C, can't remember) which is going to change things alot, but then again it could allow us to use C++ to write our on replacement ROMS which would make many more programmers able to do so.

I'm not smart enough to be able to figure out how to get assembly for the 89 working, but I do have a TI-graph link and a brand new 89.  As most people here are concerned, I would like to see some assembly action on the 89 as soon as possible, and I'd be willing to work some extra hours helping the good programmers figure this all out.
 
There have been quite of few TI's pass down the "assembly" line and all of them have been hacked into asm support.  Now, I'm sure the 89 is no different.  If anything, it should be EASIER because of its built in "exec" command.  I am fairly knowledgable in z80 and 68k assembly, so I'd be more than happy to help the good programmers out there with some of the eaiser tasks that need to be completed.  If there's anything I can do, like figure out how to do the ROM dumping stuff, just ask.  I'm sure that there's a lot of tedious tasks that are pretty straight-forward and if it makes more time available to the programmers if I chip in my time, then so be it.
