Oh... Yeah...  That fantastic image was based upon my experiences with Pokémon, which does not use diagonal magic.

If you install Xcode (Developer Suite), all the things like Make, gcc, gdb etc. will be available.

MacPorts is quite useful indeed, btw

orly?



Yes, this is a 100% legit copy of the dev suite.  It may be quite old though.

I have, using my mad PhotoShop skills, created a fantastical image to demonstrate my struggles.

Okay then.  I don't use save states anyways.

Well does ndless use the same directional-detection system as the OS? Because the OS appears to do a much better job.

I got a version specific to touchpads (gbc4touch) which says 0.8 on the inside.  I have two questions.

1:  The direction you move seems to be based upon where your finger is on the touch-sensitive part of the touchpad, not the actual buttons.  Can you fix that?

2:  Is it possible to get my savs or states off onto a computer emulator and exchange them? (Do any other emus support your saving formats?)

I don't think it's possible.  Macs don't come with things like make and wget and apt-get.  They're Unix, but weird.

Could you please link to them?  I can't find these topics you speak of :P

Calculator C / Mac C Programming?

I have working ndless on my calculator.  How do I program with C in it?  I have basic experience in C; I just need a basic tutorial on how to put a "Hello world" program over.

How DOES ndless work?  :P  It sounds like it uses a bug in the language to do something or other.  I'm just confused at this point.  All I know about it is it lets me run machine code such as assembly and compiled C.

Hey!  I posted a first post a few days ago, so I might as well introduce myself.

My name is Stuart.  I'm in 10th grade.  I started programming in late 3rd grade in Python.  Since then, I've learned Java, PHP, JavaScript, Lua, Arduino, a little bit of C, and a few non-programming language codelike things such as HTML and MySQL.  I like Linux and open source/free software! ;D
I also like the BitTorrent protocol for...  Saving the bandwidth of developers who want to distribute their free software.  Yeah, that's it. XD

I started programming on calculators when I first saw a graphing calculator, a few years ago, borrowing one from a teacher.  It was a Casio FX-9750G Plus.  The first thing I noticed on the calculator (Before I figured out how to do normal math XD) was "PRGRM".  I immediately started learning this new weird programming language whose name I did not know (Looking back, it's Casio BASIC right?) completely through trial and error.  I loved the idea of running my own little programs outside of a computer. (This set the foundation for my interest in Arduino later.)  A year later when my older brother got a TI-84 Plus, the second day he had it I hid it so that he wouldn't be able to take it to school, then brought it to school myself and programmed on it all day ;D this calculator was so much easier to program!  Anyways, eventually, (e.g like 2 years have passed lol) now I obtained my own Ti-Nspire CAS and I was confused by its layout.  Programming was...  Different.  I didn't like it as much, mostly because the GUI was different.  Immediately I found ndless and saw how it allows me to overcome limitations I didn't like.  (And also allowed me to play Pokemon :D)  I installed it right away and I'll probably start learning C soon.  I hope things work out!

So that's my story!

I am allergic to peanuts irl, btw.  Don't poison me!   ;)

What is boot2? I apologize in advance for my ignorance. :P

Does that mean I just have to open the installer every reboot or does it mean I have to plug it in and do it all over again or something?
I think running the installer is enough, but I'm not sure.
And will this emulator work with ndless 2.0?
You should use this patched version instead: http://ourl.ca/3840/236372
And what will happen if I open it without ndless installed? (e.g I just rebooted or something)
It will probably display an error message that says something like "this document is not supported".

Yeah, I already resolved all this (and actually have Mario and Doom on it right now XD) myself; I just didn't have the energy to answer until the next day.  But really, thanks for answering.  It means a lot to me that this forum is so active, it's more active at EST midnight than the forums I usually go to at noon! XD

Turns out there was a CD that came with the calculator allllll allloong! It works just fine.  Yay!  Is there a copy of OS v2.0.1?  I need this version, not the 3.x, for certain reasons...  Mostly involving Pokemon.  ;) Found

I noticed ndless said I had to install it each reboot.  Does that mean I just have to open the installer every reboot or does it mean I have to plug it in and do it all over again or something?

And will this emulator work with ndless 2.0?  And what will happen if I open it without ndless installed? (e.g I just rebooted or something)
