![]() Un-shifted R/S still behaves as usual allowing program execution to resume after inputting alpha data to a program.įunction arguments (eg. Local labels LBL A and LBL a and global labels LBL "ABC", LBL "123" and LBL "A123" work as expected. Two-digit local labels LBL 01 are not available. Switch to standard HP-42S mode to get them. Shifted R/S gives '?' instead of entering/leaving Prgm mode.ĪSTO, ARCL, '%', 'pi' and 'E' (exponent) are not available. Shifted ÷, ×, - and + give '÷', '×', '-' and '+' instead of the alpha characters. SHIFT 0 (zero) to SHIFT 9 give the digits 0-9 instead of the alpha characters. SHIFT A to SHIFT O give the same characters. The function keys still allow input in HP-42S mode.Īll alpha keys A-Z give the expected characters.

The latest version of Free42 is now a OS X Universal application. #Free42 forum software#I just feel blessed that the great software exists. I have no trouble cutting the developer some slack if he cannot immediately address my every whim or complaint. Rather, he is likely just addressing matters of greater importance.įree42 is offered to us at little or no cost. I suspect that if your bug report is not getting addressed as quickly as you would like, there is nothing at all wrong with Thomas, as you wonder. That said, I have to say that I bristle at the tone of your query. As a grateful admirer and fan, I thought that I was obliged to be patient. I assumed only that the man had gotten busy, and that the project had to take a back seat. There was a stretch of several months without any revision. I have noticed over the past year that Free42 has seemingly gotten less of Thomas' attention. Despite this, he has at times been very responsive to my queries when I have on occasion identified some obscure irregularities. I have been friendly enough with Thomas over the years to know that Free42 is but a passionate avocation and hardly his main purpose in life. I have donated a modest amount to the cause (not very much, but Thomas was most thankful at the time) and cheerfully paid the modest AppStore costs for Free42 and 42s for iPhone when they first came out. I have been a supporter of Free42 for a number of years. #Free42 forum code#Fixing minor bugs usually does not require a big burst of activity, but even minor bugs can be harder than you think some days I may crank out 500 lines of working code without breaking a sweat, while some other days I submit one single-line bug fix at the end of the day and go home exhausted. #Free42 forum android#Sooner or later I will find the time to get the kind of sustained in-the-zone burst of activity that is needed for programming to be both productive and fun at the same time I don't get that feeling with Free42 as often as in, say, 2005, when the project was still taking shape, but as you can see from the recent Android port, it does still happen occasionally. ![]() I'm sorry if my overly optimistic estimates have caused you inconvenience, and I do recognize that I have a tendency to be overly optimistic and that life tends to foil those optimistic plans (happens all the time at work, too, unfortunately), but that's just the way it is. I have no intention of abandoning Free42, but I have no intention of driving myself crazy over it, either. Why are you even asking this on this forum? Nobody here knows me personally in case you want to ask about my health, well, my email address is not a secret. ![]()
