Hello,
As some of you are aware, I am much more experienced with developing computer software than calculator software.  Hell, I get paid to write computer software ::).  Anyway, after the release of TI Developer, there was quite a lot of discussion around the need for a new IDE, and I was convinced to write one.  So, I'm announcing tiDE, an IDE for developing calculator programs for all calculator platforms, including the Nspire and TI-Basic programs.  It will include an integrated debugger that I will write (based on Stetson), which will allow you to debug code in a similar manner to the way you would use Visual Studio, for anyone familiar with that.  tiDE will also have its own assembler that I will write from scratch, and this will be the biggest push for people to use it: tiDE's assembler will have loose syntax.  This means that you will not have to re-learn assembly to use it.  For instance, all of the following would be valid:

--- Code: ---db 0A2h
.db 0A2h
db $A2
.db $A2h
--- End code ---
tiDE will support the same syntax as all of the following: TASM, ZDS, Spasm, and Brass.  Let me know if there are any major assemblers I missed.

Deep Toaster:
OTBP-style would be nice, if only for the lack of underscores (meaning bcall and memchk would be as valid as b_call and _memchk).

SirCmpwn:
Well, that kind of thing would be done in macros anyway, so you could make it work for you now, without tiDE.

Geekboy1011:
cool i hope this goes well what wiill it be coded in ?

DJ Omnimaga:
interesting, it would be nice to have something that supports all formats, since otherwise it is a major hassle to use old pieces of source code on ticalc in newer ASM programs.
