I guess my next big thing is to try to make a copy of a TI - 36X Solar --
That will be an undertaking for me.
First I'll have to research the buttons to see what all they do. Then, I'll
have to do all of the text and command changes on the buttons as part of the
command of the second and third funtion buttons. Eww. This is quickly
getting difficult - and interesting! There's probably something illegal
about copying a trademarked calculator. Of course, if I make sure I don't
make myself the author, or put my names on it... Oh, and posting the code is
just like sharing the calculator I bought, right? Yeah, I love loopholes.
Anyway, I don't think it will matter because this is too trivial.
(Sound of hands rubbing together in anticipation of making such a big
thing.)
I'll post some code as soon as it's stable.
