I think we should have a challenge where everyone who wants to makes a program for his calculator that allows you to move, resize, etc "windows" like in a regular operating system. It would be neat to see who makes the best program. I will post a gif of what I am working on as soon as possible
Challenge accepted, as soon as I can figure out how to get my calculator to stop rapidly convulsing from my latest project.
EDIT:
Do we get extra credit if the windows are (gasp) 3D?
Do we get extra credit if we just use one of the multitudes of C programs that do this?
It'd be more fun to do it in BASIC because BASIC sucks.

No.
I am using Axe right now, and you can use any language, but it has to be your own work
I have no batteries for my calculator, so I can't get the files off it

I'm disappointed Zeda and other women won't be allowed to participate in this challenge.

THERE you go.
hmmmm windows for your calc, is that not what solarsoftware began a couple years ago
Granted, he did not really get past the UI, but it was still a nifty little project

Actually I think he told me on SAX about a beta release, that was ~a month ago so I'm not sure what happened there.

Or her
Anyone!
Ok, here is my demo:
Your program is like 900 times better than mine.
Mine doesn't even work!

But does it have a grey screen of death?

Now to put content in those windows and make the content flow properly
Those windows look amazing. Especially the overlap and resizing. Now about the content... Yeah I would die if I had to program that.
If I add content I will just make it refresh with the rest of the window constantly. The program will run much slower, but, hey
CE pls. Seems kinda easy to make. (Sorry f it undermines your hard work on it)
Maybe a Windows Cesium...
Unfortunately I don't own a CE! 😋
