When you use Text(20,30), I understand that it stores 20 to somewhere that denotates the Xpos, and 30 to somewhere that denotates the Ypos.

What I would like to know is what memory location are those coordinates stored to?

So, yeah, I have a blog now. Nothing special, just your average ghost town.

Spoiler for Projects:
Spoiler for Pokemon TI:
Map engine is going to be redone from scratch, since I was lacking in organization last time. With a project as big as Pokemon, planning and organization is key, so that will probably be the brunt of the work done on this project for the time being.

Spoiler for Nostalgia:
Being worked on. Nothing really new to put here, but it's being worked on.

Spoiler for Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack.

Spoiler for Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Currently on hold. I am unsure of whether this will remain DCS7 Hybrid BASIC or if it will use Batlib, Grammer or perhaps Axe.
This may see more progress once a demo of Nostalgia is released.

From ti83plus.inc:

Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

penCol equ 86D7h
penRow equ 86D8h


Also, a little-known fact regarding printing text at constant coordinates:
Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1
2
3
4
.Coordinate=Y*256+X
Text(30*256+20)
Text "Stuff"
Is 7 bytes smaller than:
Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1
2
Text(20,30,"Stuff")

The same applies for text drawn to the home screen:
Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1
2
3
4
.Coordinate=X*256+Y
Output(20*256+30)
Disp "Stuff"
Is smaller than:
Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1
2
Output(20,30,"Stuff")
By even more, 8 bytes.

Why are the two different (7 bytes vs. 8 bytes)? I thought it did pretty much the same thing, but just to a different address.

Runer, what do you mean by Text "Stuff"? Do you mean Text("Stuff")? (Which doesn't seem to work btw) I mean, how do you get Text without parentheses?

Yep, it's like Disp "STUFF", but with graph text.
