S.I.F.S. Super Intelligent Friend System [HP Prime][HP PPL]

Well right now it is an idea and I am working on MinePrime for the first 2.0 release so this project will resume in a few days

By the way, when you scroll through the programs list, it flickers. You should perhaps use a GROB then only refresh the screen once you have updated the program list. It would also help if you made the current selection more visible, such as with a FILLPOLY rectangle on it.

Does it flicker allot? I see it flickering for me but I hardly notice it when I am using it

Suggestion: Allow for different editors, for instance, a HP PPL one, and a TI BASIC one?
Would that work?

Yeah I notice quite a bit on-calc. It's generally better to not update the LCD directly, but rather paste everything into a GROB then only paste that GROB on the screen once done. It's not that bad, though, but it would look more professional without the flickering.

Not really given that this is for HP prime only. It might be doable but not feasible.

Unicorn · July 13, 2015, 03:44:39 AM

Thought so, you would have to use the proccesor code to write that kind of thing, yeah?

CKH4 · July 13, 2015, 03:53:07 AM

If you are talking about making it be able to edit code like ti basic but not tokenize it. Also running the code would be possible but someone would need some really good os code skills.

Yeah I will do that at the time I was woried about the touch scrolling so I didn't focus on it looking 100%

I could make an editor but I would think that it would be useless since there are editors on the PC and a built in one on calc $:-\$

I thought you were going to be able to access the editor from inside SIFS? But that is an entirely different thing, isn't it.

No, I was talking about the basic editor you were talking about, I meant the editors on PC for basic and the editor on the 84+ that is built in

Why would you need os code skills to write a editor/virtual machine?

But yeah this brings us back to: we need a programing language that supports as many calcs as possible.

CKH4 · July 13, 2015, 09:22:43 PM

To run ti basic programs on an HP prime.

Unicorn · July 13, 2015, 11:20:27 PM

speaking of languages, what happend to your language cumred?

We could call it PolyScript poly meaning many (or many calcs)
