dcsLINK v1.0 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
Progress:
dcsLINK is a project that I am working on, but I need help with it. I will write the calc-side software, but I need a skilled C++ programmer to make the computer-side program. dcsLINK will be able to collect news, sports scores, and emails from RSS feeds, convert them to a form understandable by the on-calc viewer (most likely as an enhanced plaintext file) and then transmit them automatically when a calculator is connected to the computer. Here are some sample screenshots that I made:
The link protocol is as follows:
Send Byte
Clock and Data Low
Wait for Data high
(1) Clock high
Send bit
Clock low
Loop to (1)
Data high
Data low
Clock high |
|
Receive Byte
Wait for clock and data low
Wait for data high
(1) Wait clock high
Get bit
Wait for clock low
Loop to (1)
Wait for Data high
Wait for Data low
Wait for clock high |

Progress:
Doors CS is a revolutionary new shell for the TI-83 and TI-83+/SE calculators, and will eventually be ported to all TI calculators. Thus far I have gotten it up to v4.2.0 on the TI-83. The project is now in the delta stage: the current out-of-beta version will be available concurrently with the beta stages of the all-ASM portion. Current Doors CS v4.2.0 features include:
 Shutdown Menu
Mouse
My Calc folder
Graphical desktop with custom icons and program names
Desktop scrollbar
Start Menu
Automatic low power mode
Screensaver
Secure 6-character password and username
Automatic program detection
Icons based on program type and customization
Program running of BASIC and assembly programs.
Support for libless and library-dependent Ion programs.
The current delta version of Doors CS v5.0 (version 4.3.2 delta) contains the following features in some form:
Support for squished Doors CS assembly programs.
Detection and support for Doors CS Shell Extensions (SEs) that provide additional features.
Built-in Doors CS GUI libraries for Doors CS assembly programs, including the mouse, window, program search, and access to the 8 Ion library components.
Half the size with the squished program loader.
Support for ALEs - Addendum Library Extensions - that provide additional libraried for Doors CS programs.
New, faster mouse routine with automatic contrast, APD, poweroff, and 8-direction movement support.

Office DE |
|
|
|
|
|
Progress:
Office DE v3.0 is a suite of programs for TI calculators. It contains four fast programs:
Document DE, a word processor;
Presentation DE, a presentation application;
Spreadsheet DE, a spreadsheet application;
Draw DE, a drawing application.
Each can store up to nine files of unlimited size, bounded only by the amount of free memory on your calculator.
Document DE v2.0 allows you to store up to nine files of unlimited length on your calculator. It allows you to find words or phrases within a document, scroll through it using a cool (and fast) graphical scroll bar, and edit the text.
Spreadsheet DE v2.0 lets you edit a grid of cells of unlimited size as well as use formulae such as SUM( and PRODUCT( in your files. You can save and open up to nine files; edit and search functions are built in. Uses matrices so that if the program is accidentally deleted, important data can still be salvaged by reinstalling the program.
Presentation DE, the third program in the suite, can import nd export Draw DE files, edit and create its own slides, and view a slide show with many possible options. Its GUI is consistent with the rest of Office DE and uses simple and intuitive controls.
Finally, Draw DE is an incredible drawing program with three menus of functions for nearly twenty total drawing tools. You can draw squares, circles, lines, invert the screen, flip the picture horizontally or vertically, clear an area, draw with a pen, point on, point off, or point change tool, and many other options. Files can be shared between the other Office DE programs. Check out this amazing set of programs! All files are now Doors CS v4.0 optimized.

Dark Shadow |
|
|
|
|
|
Progress:
Dark Shadow is a third-person space shooter game. It is completely graphical and includes three different and unique enemies that you battle. It also includes three PowerUps with varying effect on your gameplay. The object of the game is to prevent the enemy ships from passing you by shooting them. The game includes a hyper-power shot meter, which lets you charge your weapon before shooting for maximum effectiveness. Dark Shadow v1.0 contains a unique keycode engine that lets you set your own controls for the game or use the defaults. It also contains a high score table that stores the five highest scores that you have achieved. Check this great game out! Note to assembly programmers: if you would be willing to port this game to assembly, please email me at Kerm_Martian@yahoo.com; otherwise, as soon as I get a chance, I will port it.
