A89: TI-89 GNU OPEN TI OS Pre-Proposal
With the talk of a new TI-89 OS, I wanted to voice my opinion on
what the OS would be like. The entire idea and purpose of this OS would
be to make the TI-89 as open and as accessable as possible. The current
OS, that TI provides doesn't give us the power we desire out of our
calcs. We need more. We need to push our TI's to the max! Here we go.
Tell me what you think. Don't tell me that it's a stupid idea. You don't
help anyone. We can do whatever I want to do.
TI-89 GNU OPEN TI OS
Proposal
PC to TI connectivity station
External GNU C/C++/ASM Compilers ( why aren't we using these with good
libraries? )
Stable System Kernal ( does the system chores, interupts, blah, blah )
A standard programming library
File System (with compression options)
GUI and text Shell interfaces
Multi-tasking
Networking Protocal
Standard system DLL's program interfaces
Security System
Scripting language (similar to TI-BASIC but more power and robust, like
Java Script)
Word Processing and other associated applications ( extras )
