Good adriweb :)

And a subset of the NavNet API is now available in Ndless and the Ndless SDK r893!
Documentation is available on hackspire, and samples in Ndless and Ndless SDK.

We now have all we need to make pacspire access the TI-Planet API :)
The packet manager UI could be either implemented on the calculator side or the computer.

On my side, I have queued a patch for adding generic send & receive commands to libticalcs, so as to provide an API close to TI_NN_Write and TI_NN_Read, but I haven't published it yet.

I don't know if its the right place to talk of this, but you cut the "TI-Nspire specific" part in two with Navnet using a h3 instead of h4.
Now the Graphic API appears part of Navnet :D

Good job you two :)

Also, Extended, why not both ?
(well, eventually).

And this made me think that some files (and not just a few) are not .tns directly, but are zipped (or rar[er] - pun intended, whoooo - anyway, rar would be a pain on-calc, zip, probably less.)
So, should I add another "type" field to the api response, or will that just be left to the client to parse from the file url ? (it would be just one line in php, probably same or a bit more in C...)


Edit : Levak / ExtendeD : I reordered the doc (see Levak's post ^ )

The only FOSS software for extracting rar that supports rarv3 is the Unarchiver.

EDIT: It's written in Objective C, though, so I don't know how easy it would be to port it to the Nspire.

unrar? That's the official open source implementation if I'm not wrong. But it consists of some many cpp files that it seems to be huge and slow..

No, not unar, not unrar.
The FOSS version of unrar supports only rarv2, but unar supports a variety of archive formats, including rarv3.

BTW, the official version of unrar is proprietary.

No, I meant GNA unrar. Ok, then the site was unbelievably old to state that it supports the most recent RAR format..
