[Prizm] Clock - it can tell the time...

Thanks, I will look into those years having problems when using specify. As for early years, I may disable them because the leap year algorithm I use doesn't go that far back.

I will fix what I can, and hopefully release it with additional content.

<edit>

So, I saw that specify fails when you give it dates. I also saw that you can go into B.C.! Lastly, the grey numbers drawing oddly is due to me failing to realize I was making the drawing wrong. The actual days, if on a Sunday, should drop down a line, except I never moved it down a line :-X Therefore both draw at the same time.

Expect an update, and maybe a view menu that's populated (?)

When I drag and drop the file to my calc, it works, but when I press AC/on to get back to the main menu, it isnt there anymore. I have tried this 3 times...

Any idea what might be going on?

AC/on from transferring? Don't do that, properly eject the drive as the OS is likely caching the add-in and not writing to it right away.

Just wanted to let you know, so far, my calc's time is right on the dot. I'm going to watch it for the rest of the week to see how accurate it is.

Thanks! If you art testing accuracy, don't run Sink until the fix is out (unless I did release it, but I doubt it.)

Why? Does it mess up the RTC?

Yes, it changes the time in order to make a one second delay. It was a bad decision to not wait until I figured out the 64Hz timer Sad

Not the calc. Sink will stop the clock, making the seconds read 0. It starts it and waits for it to read 1. If you run sink, you will just have to change the clock, not the calc.

Finally tried this out, and I must say it's absolutely excellent, very well put together from the new RTC discovery to wonderful GUI.

Some months have funny numbers in the first week, even weeks in later years (i.e., 2012)

Also, the RTC is very accurate. I have been checking it against my watch and another clock and it has not lost a second yet Wink

I think maybe some games on the 9860 reset the RTC like Sink, or maybe resetting the calc did that. Or maybe the RTC's on those calc's were bad. I don't know.

What would be cool is to have the time on the main menu, on the upper right hand side. That would probably require an OS hack though.
