[casetta] Interactive mode

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.tuxfamily.org/casetta Archives ]


Hello,

As I am continuing my project of using my calculator as a remote controller (I am very obstinate ;-)), I need to send data using the interactive mode (in order to send the artist name in a matrix under the from of numbers.

Currently, casetta is able to receive data in interactive mode. But I have problem to send data (I know your code is inspired from cafix and looked at cafix source code, I seems not to be OK). I trying to solve these problems, of course :-).
I would need a transfert tool page on the wiki to publish what I discovered. If you agree, could give me the rights to create pages on the wiki, please.And, also to modify all pages (if I want to correct a small thing) : I promise I will not make big chnages without asking your opinion ;-)


I discovered that when you ask your calculator to ***RECEIVE*** data in interactive mode, it sends a byte (\x15), and then if you send the byte \x13, you get a sort of header. That's very strange because the calculator sends a header and initiate the transfert whereas it wants to ***RECEIVE*** data...

About, the integration of the matrix and list support, the problem does not exist if you don't commit very heavy changes to the files I modified so that's OK. I will be better to include this after casetta 0.3 is released (Moreover diff and patch are maravelous ;-)).

For the picture editor, I just wanted to say that, if the users want to transform a picture he has just drawn into a program, it would be better to record all the tools he use and convert the instructions into casio instruction rather than using the img_to_basic function because, it will produce a smaller program. (However, I consider producing small programs from picture for casetta is not priority so if you have not so much time, using the img_to_basic function is OK :-))

Cheers,

PS : In one of my mail I said that while receiving a screencapture, there was nothing displayed before the progress bar but in fact I meant that there was no data name on the line of the progress bar.
