It took me long enough, I know (it's been over two years since a new version came out). But it's ready, it's been excruciatingly tested by myself (today, actually), and it'll be here asap (as in whenever the lazy admins decide to work on the file queue and after I remember how to submit files). |
mooseman256 Marine Posted: 26 Jul 2005 14:48 GMT Total Posts: 21 | Hey, i'm new to programming, so, naturally i'm curious as to what the heck ti VISUAL basic is. Mind enlightening me? |

Posted: 26 Jul 2005 14:58 GMT Total Posts: 1005 | Sure. There are two ways of my doing so:
A) just tell you B) tell you where to d/l it.
I guess I'll do both.
TI Visual BASIC is a project of mine that's been ongoing for roughly four years. It is a graphics design engine smoothly written to resemble Visual BASIC format, hence the name. It makes drawing graphics on-calc a lot easier.
You can find the old version (new version hasn't been uploaded yet) in the 83+ projects section. |

mooseman256 Marine Posted: 26 Jul 2005 15:02 GMT Total Posts: 21 | Oh, I see. Is there a way to erase what you have drawn? |

Posted: 26 Jul 2005 15:07 GMT Total Posts: 1005 | Yeah... start over. A clearing command is in v0.5, but I hardly used it, and it was just taking up space, so I axed it. |

Posted: 27 Jul 2005 15:03 GMT Total Posts: 1005 | Yeah, it's a lil hard to do that without VTI, and I have NEVER been able to get VTI to work (plus the fact that I've got a 84+SE, and if I'm not mistaken, VTI don't support that yet). |

Posted: 27 Jul 2005 15:14 GMT Total Posts: 1005 | Okay, I updated it again. I forgot that the version number had changed to v1.0, as it is now a completely functioning beta. D'oh!
Oh, well. I still got it done. I'm celebrating! :smoke: |

One of the other ones, what is it, TiElm?, does support the 84+ -- kinda. |

alex10819 Wraith Posted: 28 Jul 2005 11:25 GMT Total Posts: 507 | yeah, TilEm can emulate the 84+... but first you have to get a ROM for it, and thats almost impossible... try Tilp, it supposedly can... not that i ever got it to work...(note to admins: im not discussing illegal trading of ROMs) |
Andy Administrator Posted: 28 Jul 2005 15:00 GMT Total Posts: 939 | huh, roms? ... oh, nevermind. :P |

P.S. - ROM!

Posted: 29 Jul 2005 06:24 GMT Total Posts: 29 | ROMS R FUNYeah I played around with TI-VB some... dood you really need something where you can have something stored into a string in a program then run your program, and have it do it's thing... (I edited the old one so I could do that)

alex10819 Wraith Posted: 29 Jul 2005 13:37 GMT Total Posts: 507 | dont filter ROM... cuz then we can never talk about Flash EEPROM again...

Posted: 29 Jul 2005 13:40 GMT Total Posts: 1005 | Eh, minor detail. Most peeps don't even know what that is.
BTW, any other suggestions (yes, I thought about putting the ASM alpha-lock program; wait a few years for the next update :D)? |
alex10819 Wraith Posted: 29 Jul 2005 13:50 GMT Total Posts: 507 | huh... difinitely make it callable (i think i spelled that wrong) from BASIC... that would be soooo cool... and i mean easy to do... you do it right, you can pass it off as a lib and get even more dls... |

Posted: 29 Jul 2005 16:25 GMT Total Posts: 2007 | I think you can make word filters so that it only detects the word as a whole, and not as part of another word.
EDIT: I am the 1000th post in the DSP forums, yay! :)
