Maybe so, but all the same...most people put important files on the web just incase their compy crashes or something. You wouldn't have had to shared it. No one would know it was there.

Oh this is just terrible. Did you lose more important source?

Fortunately my uni related stuff is also partly saved on the lab computers (here data files are more important than the ad-hoc tools I made to work with them, and they are all on the web or the intranet), except for some old stuff which was just eating up space anyway. It's a major annoyance, but I can recover in some days. Apart from that, PTI was the only major project I was working on, and now I can really value that fact.

OMFG, I think that's the saddest news I've ever heard in the TI scene

I will caress the binaries I have downloaded a while ago, 'cause I'm not going back to VTI

Damn this thing called "nature"! Lightning, who could have guessed..?

Cobb: Are you going to submit PindurTI in its current state to Ticalc.org?
I think you should.

Its not completed, but its still the best emulator out there.

nooo

I know how you might feel, this happened to me twice, when I lose all my work I lose motivation and stop working on the project forever, I dont like restarting everything from scratch

I guess everyone might have a last version on their comp though, since its pretty useful so far, I have PindurTI on my comp but I think it dates back in april I think so I dunno if its the last version

Well, summer is coming anyway, I'll have time to rethink the design.

thecheat · Post by **thecheat** » Mon 23 May, 2005 12:41 pm

err I have it on my compy (should date at least may) but I could never get it to work....

the version I had worked fine with me, altough you needed to drag aqnd drop the TI83.sav file in the window twice before it does anything, but its the best emu out there

What does that exactly mean ? Does that mean you'll work on it again ? Or is the project 'cancelled' as stated on your page ? Please no !
