Hello,

The iOS/Android/Winstore versions will be downloaded through your normal phone update mechanism as they are approved by the various stores. They are still pending at this time.

Got it. Easy peasy!

When I launched the Connectivity Kit, it immediately asked me if I wanted to perform the update to this new version. I backed up and went ahead, and everything went perfectly well.

Thanks a million Tim!

Like adding pointers, datatype specifiers (like INT, REAL, STRING) and user-defined records (like structures in C) to HPPL? Please, please?

One can dream, can't one?

Install was easy, no problems, but I had to download the VC by hand.
Checking my keyboard problem with "Alt Gr" to input one of {[]} I found another issue, I typed AltGr + [ and the matrix brackets showed as wished, cursor in the matrix, on pos 1. So I tried fff as data for that element, that produced fff and not FFF, so the shift key was switched off, ok. Then I moved the cursor right with the arrow key on my keyboard to fill the next position and the cursor jumped behind the closing bracket, attempts to put the cursor back in the matrix using arrow-keys failed, the cursor only jumped between: before [ and behind ] . Mouse or finger (its a PC with touchscreen) can be used to edit the second element. After "Enter" and then copy the matrix back from history to the editline the cursor key behaved the same. On the HW Prime that works as expected.

Any timeline for updating the iOS HP Prime Pro app to include the 13441 fixes?

[Tim Wessman]

They are waiting on apple/google...

Tim Wessman, thank you, but I must say that his kit is horrible, with all the sincerity I think the hp prime team is incapable.
I hope some day you can make the kit very good, because until now, the block of notes is better.

is a very good and witty phrase xD, the members' trust is nice

Aún deseo que el Kit pueda manipular la inserción y retiro de archivos, como si de Windows Explorer se tratara, tengo muchas ganas de ampliar el conocimiento de uso de archivos con Aplicaciones porque ese es hasta ahora el punto más fuerte que tiene la calculadora para la persistencia de datos.
Por otro lado adiciona una funcionalidad más a las aplicaciones de terceros al poder dar verstalidad al intercambiar archivos creados sus Apps instaladas, retirar toda la App y el fallo tras cargar varios archivos aún no promociona esa funcionalidad.

I still want the Kit to be able to manipulate the insertion and output of files, as if it were Windows Explorer, I really want to expand the knowledge of use of files with Applications because that is until now the strongest point the calculator has for the persistence of data.
On the other hand adds a functionality to third-party applications to be able to give verstalidad when exchanging files created with yours installed Apps, remove the entire App and the failure after loading several files has not yet promoted that functionality.

[Arno K]

I would like to see it work as an IDE, edit, debug and send programs around, clearly with all help included, like on the calculators.

To Arno's list, additional features to enhance the CK user experience such as:

• font size/color,
• search/replace,
• command autofill,
• context sensitive help, (like using F1 or hover over a command to show help description),
• debug improvements

rise to the top of my wish list!
