dgrissom Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 DIRW TIPI compatible BASIC program to replace TI's CATALOG program. This program is based on the old CATALOG TI's Catalog program (from the Disk Manager booklet) CATALOG is a little long on the tooth and outdated when using TIPI. DIRW runs from with TI BASIC or Extended BASIC. It provides a "wide" format directory listing of TI drives (Tested with TIPI and NanoPEB). This reduces screen scroll when I am looking for specific files. It tags Directories and Programs in the output. It accepts single digits for DSK numbers. If you have a DSK0 or DSK4 then "0" or "4" will work. You can type text as well: "DSK1." or "TIPI.DEV" will both work if the directories exist. There is no error checking as this will run on plain jane TI BASIC. Text must be in upper case. The screens are pretty self explanatory and the program can be easily edited to add any necessary features! It is, by design, "no-frills". Screen example: Errors will occur if Drive/Disk is NOT present! (*Dir +Program NoMark=Files) Type digit for DSK# or Text for TIPI. Mapped Disk: TIPI.DEV<blinking cursor> This Returns (example): Volume in TIPI.DEV is TIPI Directory(+=Prg *=Dir): 1SCRATCH* BLANK* DIRW+ SSAVER+ SXB* SXB/DOCS* Dir/Files(s): 4/3 Used:1440 Free:1438 ..Again(Y/N)?<blinking cursor> I hope that this file is useful. Please, let me know if you have any problems with it! DIRW.zip 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also 2 maps DSK2 and 3 maps DSK3 TIPIMAP is written in Extended Basic and can be loaded with OLD PI.http://ftp.whtech.com/Users/Gregory%20McGill/TIPIMAP TIPIMAP has been updated to support DSK4 and also improved keyboard responsiveness 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDMike Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) I have a question about using disk 1,2 inside the peb shell. If I map TIpi drives 1,2 I seem to lose my, what I call, Local disk 1 or 2 that are attached to the ti disk controller. So ive not been mapping TIpi drives 1,2.? I still want local dsk1,2 to continue functioning. Thx Edited June 21, 2020 by GDMike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Vorticon Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 I am thoroughly impressed by the IRATA.ONLINE PlatoTerm platform. The PLATO content is tantalizing and will take a long time to explore. This is a must for any TIPI owner. I set up my URI2 to HTTP://TI99.IRATA.ONLINE and access it via a CALL TIPI("URI2.PLATO"). I have also set up a Mega Menu entry for it for even easier access. You do however have to set up an account with IRATA.ONLINE first. Now if you'll excuse me I've got to go back to it for more exploration 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2nd listing is a native Extended BASIC listing generated by TIDBIT. I was playing with Super Extended BASIC's features with this program. If you use the SXB to run it it will display a clock and few more tweaks. I've truncated some of the return data, removed excess technical data, and added a word-wrap routine to clean up the screen. In the AGAIN? (bottom of included screen): You can Enter: Y to enter and new station. N to Exit to BASIC. R to Repeat/Update the last Station's Info. X to Exit to Force Command. (If you use it.

ElectricLab Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 It's all working now. The code behind the old site uses Python 2 which is end-of-lifed. It still should run, just won't be maintained. I installed Python 3 for another project with the intent of running both until I upgrade all the code running on Python 2. Installing Python 3 also upgraded a library in the Python 2 installation, which caused another library to need updating, which I manually did. Anyway it's all good now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgrissom Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 ShtdwnPi.bin Shutting down your Raspberry PI. I know there are a lot of ways to do this. CALL TIPI, tipi:9900 web interface, Physical shutdown buttons, Force Command, BASIC/Extended BASIC, and probably more! So here is a new one. I used senior_falcon's Jewel, BASIC/Extended BASIC code implementing the PI.SHUTDOWN command (jrhodes and others), and finally Fred Kaal's Module Creator and TI99Dir to put together a FinalGrom99 cartridge file that shuts down the Pi. It was a learning exercise to figure out some of the tools described above. Funny thing is it work pretty well (no smoke ). I'm sure it can be improved. I've attached a zip with the BASIC source and the finished .BIN file. I put my file in the root directory of the FG99 SD-Card. The menu command is SHUTDOWN PI. BTW, the only problem I found in setting this stuff up was that I could set up a shortcut to the module creator in Windows 10? I followed Fred's instructions but kept getting errors. I finally created a batch file to execute the Module Creator and everything worked. Selection "R." marks the spot.
