Ti-Basic on palm

[nucklearknight]

Does anybody know of an app that lets me write Ti-Basic on a palm and test the program?

[phreakonaleash]

Why? TI-basic is a waste... :-)
1) You can't get it onto TI calcs (the 8xp files are binary, so plain .bas is't any use)
2) TI-Basic is hardly basic
3) Better alternatives

SmallBASIC (smallbasic.sf.net)

[_Em]

Well, here's a q: are there any TI calc emulators for PalmOS? This would solve issue 1.

Well, here's a q: are there any TI calc emulators for PalmOS? This would solve issue 1.There are a couple of very good HP emulators, but I haven't seen anything for TI.

No, there is no TI emulator :( :( :(
One option is the use of lyme..
Other, small basic has a lot of math functions but lacks of controls for the UI

SmallBasic is great but I can't figure out how to make menus like in Ti-basic. Can anybody help me?

This is the problem, it has no GUI so you must do all as in the olden times.
Another option will be PLUA, it can control the GUI, it is no basic but it seems.
I done one app using PLUA :

PLUA can generate .prc :) files but thouse files need a runtime, pluaRT or the complete program plua.prc :o
The .prc files can't be accesorized :(
It has less maths functions :(
It is faster than smallBasic :rolleyes:
You can cut and paste to other programs, in smallbasic not :p

GUI? Graphic User Interface? I'm not too good with this stuff. I just recently started to program on my calculator and wanted to make some better programs on my palm. So I can't make a menu with small basic?
I downloaded Plua but it is a little confusing. How do I save things that I have created? And can I get a command library? Like the catalog on the Ti.

[Palmípedo]

You can do a menu easy in the olden style:
1 Option 1
2 Opt 2
3 ...
Select an option?
And get a number from the grafitti area, th code:
print ..
print ..
...
input ..
But it is so bad

I see..........

You can do simple menus in lyme too, and lyme is so close to matlab
