A new update for the calcutils project has been posted. To see the latest sources go to:
http://calcutils.tuxfamily.org
The big changes with the 0.2 release . . .
Two utilities have been added - calcbackup and calcrestore. They are designed to allow you to back up and restore everything on the calculator. With calcbackup, you create an empty directory, start up calcbackup and watch it fly until all of the files are backed up from the calculator. With calcrestore, enter a directory with files you wish to send to the calculator, start up calcrestore and watch it fly. Each of the utilities has command line help with the -h or --help option to further explain their usage, etc.
The big change behind the scenes is that I have moved the project from c to c++ and have put the bulk of the work in a pair of c++ classes, ti_usb and ti_file. But, browse the source if you would like to learn more about that, as it is fairly well documented.
Again, the only calculator currently supported is the TI89 Titanium over the USB link, and of course the project will continue to be linux only.

Classes seems a great idea to reuse in other source codes.
Keep the good work.

Nice, I'M sure a lot of the Linux guys will find this very useful :)
I hope it supports all calc models soon (including the TI-Nspire) and all OSes (such as Nspire OS 1.1)

It will depend on when I get some other calcs to play with . . . right now all I have is the Titanium . . . and I'm getting ready to start school, so I'll try - but no promises.

Hey all,
Another quick update for calcutils - this time to 0.2.1. The changes are some minor source file cleanups, instituted a proper makefile system, and now there is an rpm package for installation.

Nice :D
I merged your two topics, though since there were two of them in the list. :P
