---------------------
guess who's back?
---------------------
It's been a while I hadn't been here. If you remember, I was working on an OS for the TI-83 Plus and was posting updates. I wen't back to the site and didn't find what I previously wrote. Anyways, the program is in alpha testing. If anyone is interested in beta-testing, please do so and give me your comments. it currently uses a basic program and an asm program but I will soon make it asm only. To download:

http://www.geocities.com/robert_aboukhalil/
download "raos.zip"

there is a mouse(right, left, up, down). mode to exit. in the file manager, select 2nd to run a program, clear to exit, settings: 1-2-3-4 keys to enable/disable settings. the rcle mode is just the zdos 2.0 by david lindstrom. there are a lot of things to arrange but just tell me if it's a good beginning.

thanks

known bugs: cannot shutdown calc after exitting raos(press 2nd + quit)

do you use ASM mouse, or a program/routine like that? my windows clone i'm working on has that too, pressing apps then clear also works.

I think it's because it blocks the ON key

Beware of your OS, and make sure you dont copy the code from ti-os. I got in trouble at first for making a os, got a visit, and i canceled the development. I never did use any ti-os code!

But I am working on one now! If you need help just tell me.

Actually technically you can sell, as long it is your own codes and not from ti-os!

You have to reset a flag, whichever it is that _GetKeyRetOff sets.

Raos is not a friggin' OS... It is a shell, but not an OS... Keith is making an OS, robertak is making a shell.

You can use the same romcalls you just have to rewrite them. You have to else the same programs will not work. On the other hand, if you rewrote them they might start going insanely fast...
