I meant to ask...When the DoorsCS uses it's "Shortcut" does it writeback and store the current location so as to return to the exact point the user left off?
Hey Kerm just thought you would like to know there is this strange bug that when I open the start menu it goes back down again.


So it goes up and down when i press once.


any idea what i am talking about?

Is this on your emulated 84? How are you accessing the menu, by pressing [F1], or by using the arrows and then [trace] or [2nd]?

Another bug that should be fixed in DCS7, I was using the dcsicon2 program to make an 8x8 icon, but when I pressed enter to covert the pic to hexagonal text, or whatever you call the icon, and my calc froze and crashed. There was plenty of memory, everything was archived, so it wasn't a memory error. I don't know if this is the shell's bug or the programs, but it is a setback.

I am accessing it by moving the mouse and clicking 2nd. Yes it is on my emulated 84

Yes but you forgot that to use the program, it will be unarchived before it will be executed.
This is why castelvania, prelude to darkness will NEVER work on my calc
sorry to doublepost but I felt he needed the explanation

P.S. I hope that my explanation waz correct

Your explanation WAS correct, BUT that program WASN'T archived, I can be stupid a lot, especially with that "hexagonal" text, I couldn't think of the word, but I believe it is Heximal text.
-Sirrico
*Hexadecimal. Smile At any rate, I just tried running the Doors CS icon creator, and had no problems running it both as an archived and unarchived program. Not sure why it crashed for you.

Who knows... Does the program use any ROM, if so that's my problem. My calc. is filled to the brink with 500 bytes free. If not, I got a 1/1000000 chance and that's pretty cool.
-Sirrico
Wait, you mean you have 500 bytes of RAM free? There's your problem right there. Razz

Sorry, I guess I'm a noob at terms, around 10,000 bytes RAM, 500 bytes of archive space.

oh yes I was wondering the update on the powerdown bug for the nspire.

Just curious.


Also I figured out the problem turns out I was using Doors5 not 6.2

So yeah the nspire thing , just what to get an update on it.

thanks

Has upgrading to 6.2 fixed your problem?


There are two types of people in the world: those who can extrapolate data from incomplete data
Yes my poor eyesight led to me seeing a five as a 6.2 when i was re-downloading the program.


But back to the nspire thing really would like an update cause now i have to be extra careful.

Well, if I can figure out the Off problem (ie, make the problem happen again), you can have one.

So I finished fixing up the MemoryPop and InfoPop, and raised the default acceleration values to make the mouse feel zippier. Noticed one problem - the MemoryPop is reporting weird free ROM values. I'll have to fix that in the morning, then after that look at TabFuncs and general SE stuff. I might need to delete another extraneous MOS function or two, I have the following current memory usage:


Code:
Page 0 is 14365 bytes long (2019 bytes to spare)
Page 1 is 16032 bytes long (352 bytes to spare)
Page 2 is 1572 bytes long (14812 bytes to spare)

Thanks


Just wanted to know.

you should make my TabFunc3(?) be a toggle-able option.

Why? I'll just make the TabFunc cursor (in whatever form it ends up taking) only show up when you start tabbing around.

Anyway, I fixed the problem with the ROM checking; does anyone see any optimizations to make here?


Code:
   ld hl,0839Fh
   ld d,(hl)
   inc hl
   ld e,(hl)
   inc hl
   ld a,(hl)   ;don't care about low byte @$83A2 though
   srl d
   rr e
   rra         ;divide hla by two   (=256*2 = 512)
   srl d
   rr e
   rra         ;divide hla by four      (=256*4 = 1024)
   ld h,e
   ld l,a
   bcall(_vdisphl)

Oh! [F1]=start menu, [F2]=back, [F3]/[F4]=TabFunc. Does [F5] do anything?

Also, are you doing the clocky thing for 84s?

FALSE! FALSE! Delete both AppVars, run DCS, then immediately make a new folder.

No but yes.

[F1]=DCS Menu
[F2]=Folder Up
[F4]=[2nd]=[ENTER]=Left-Click
[F5]=[ALPHA]=Right-Click
[XTOn] = Tab
[STAT] = Shift-Tab

If it's there at all, it will be an SE.

okay. so it don't glitch for you. You got a flesh-and-blood 84?
