jstimson Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Recently binge-watched the first season of "Halt and Catch Fire" and came away from it with a renewed interest in my vintage computer collection, and specifically my TI. As a result, I have a couple of personal projects planned out for it and want to share them with the TI community. Intend to post mostly here and on the "TI-99/4A and Geneve 9640 Home Computers !" Yahoo group. As a start, I have my TI hooked up via a serial connection to my Windows 7 PC and, using Telco, am able to communicate and transfer files via xmodem. Here's my first question to the community........ If I want to share XB programs, what is the preferred file format? I have not played with any TI emulators very much since I love the original hardware so much, so unsure of what the standard is for posting TI files for others to grab. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unhuman Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Welcome... We cut and paste text here a bit.... Most of us work in emulators which allow Cut & Paste and DSK files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on personal preference, at the end of the day. I like to release things in both FIAD and plain-text format. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
