RE: Complex Lock mode for WP-34s
I'm delighted that you like complex mode (and also that you've enabled SIGFIG_MODE when compiling)! I don't see any problems with your code changes in themselves, but programs written assuming the normal behaviour of ENTER might not work correctly. This could apply to some of the programs included as part of the "full" versions of the firmware, which wouldn't be a fundamental problem - the memory taken up by complex mode means that most users probably don't use these versions. A more serious problem is that some of the WP34S functions are coded in the WP34S programming language rather than in C, to save memory space. I don't know whether changing what ENTER does will affect this XROM code. Other people can answer this!
I'd certainly be interested in a complex mode sticker set. My current complex mode calculator is coming to the end of its life (the keyboard is dying) and I'll be making a new one soon, so your timing is good! By coincidence, I was looking at the complex mode code just a few weeks ago. Not all of the updates that have gone into the main branch have gone into the complex branch, so I need to bring this up to date. It would be straightforward to include your Entry RPN and other changes as compile-time options when I do this. Nigel (UK) |
