[pindurti] need help :)

[driesguldolf]

Hmm I just got myself a ti83+ rom and started pti
The problem is that I have a small qwerty keyboard (laptop) and the "+" is a shift key... pti doesn't want to recognize it and thus no memroy acces for me... well I _could_ press F10 and mess with the keyboard there

Also how does the scripting work? I have read http://users.hszk.bme.hu/~pg429/pindurti/ and http://wikiti.denglend.net/index.php?ti ... s:PindurTI but they dont state how to invoke it (I'm not a commandline freak),. I tried running with the -p switch, I even added the file name "-p script.txt" but the taskmanager says it has opened pti but it isn't showing up in the taskbar...

I use WinXP SP2

You will usually not need (or be able) to use the scripting (non-interactive mode) of the emulator. Try to run it on a command line (WinKey+R, "cmd", Enter, cd to PTI directory, "pindurti -p", Enter) and talk to it ("reset-calc", Enter; probably gives a FU). It does say on the wiki that you can't run it on a command line like that, but it's working just fine under Linux, so why not under Windows

The idea of the non-interactive mode is that other applications can use the emulation of PTI, but they will have to implement their own screen and keyboard (like my pti_frontend does, see Annouce your projects), so it's quite useless for normal use.

hmmm:
btw pti doesn't show up in the taskbar, is that normal?
I don't think it works... But still it's a great emulator (though I think flashdebugger is easier to debug with)

It does work; as it's a windowed application you lose the standard input and output redirection that you'd normally get from a console application (in short, the app is running in a hidden window - if you have access to it, via a Process object in .NET for example, you can send and receive data to it).

In non-interative mode there is no meaningful visible window to display, so nothing will appear in the taskbar.
