Forum TI-Planet.org

Hello,

I am looking at solution to ease my developing life and one good improvement for me would be to work out of my WM, this would hence need having a transfert solution from Linux OS to my CX-II (CAS).

I know that Lionel was trying to fix the protocol change into the TILP software some time ago and found two posts in the forum (both started in mid 2019) explaining it is an ongoing topic. Are there some news on implementing the adequate transfer protocol in TILP ?

Can today TILP handle correctly the CX-II ? What can we do (and can't) ?

Today I am using the TI software on Win10 with a running WM on Ubuntu for coding. This works, but there are really a lot of limitations for coding in an efficient way (single screen, need to copy multiple times files from one share folder to the final folder on the nSpire ...). So a bit painful when developing ...

Thank you in advance for any update on the topic. And keep strong.

Ciao

Are there some news on implementing the adequate transfer protocol in TILP ?

Nope.

Can today TILP handle correctly the CX-II ?

Not at all
With the scriptable test_ticalcs_2, I was able to successfully exchange several packets with a CX II, but in terms of implementation, I never went beyond that. I need to refactor the Nspire code before adding CX II support.

What can we do (and can't) ?

I do have a CX II to gather protocol dumps, but I'm not spending much time on libti*/gfm/tilp at the moment.

https://github.com/Vogtinator/libnspire remains the only way for a Linux computer to communicate with CX II calculators. The protocol support is limited (sending and receiving files, but not much else, last time I checked), and Fabian had to spend time fixing major protocol bugs before he could add CX II support, but for the narrow purpose of sending and receiving files, it's supposed to be reliable enough by now. "crappy lightweight" remains true - corners were cut by tangrs

Merci Lionel pour ton retour.
Bon je reste en l'état pour travailler sur le Toolkit, car c'est ma priorité #1.
Je regarderai ce que je peux faire sur le sujet ensuite.
Merci beaucoup,

Sly
