A Basic Spreadsheet for the PicoCalc

Hey Aaron Addison - Any thoughts on when you might have time to work on your ‘sheet.bas’? You have a good start with version 0.0.00001. I have it working on my PicoCalc 1. I believe it has some great potential. Here’s a picture of it running a linear interpolation spreadsheet on my PicoCalc: - Jim

I would think very soon now, I am ‘busy’ with a markdown editor/database thingy for pen and paper rpg..

Want anything special as a priority fix?

The actions printed at the top of the screen are a bit crowed and over write eachother. We have plenty of spreadsheet rows under this, so I suggest you drop a row and add the space up at the top. You might consider moving the information/actions area to the bottom; like on the Casio FX-991CW. At the bottom, the information is closer to the keyboard which I find helpfull.

I’m just ammazed that this version (The very first one!) works at all! Thank you for all the work you do for us! - Jim

Hi Aaron - I just found this in my email. I just finished a suggestion on the forum. Anyway, if it’s alright with you, I’ll send any more suggestions to you by this email. My email is: jimpilot1@gmail.com I’m excited about your spreadsheet program. Since it is written in Basic, I am learning alot how spreadsheet apps work. It is really neat how all of the cell data is stored in a .txt file. Now I understand why each cell must start with =, n, ', -------> Brilliant! - Jim

I am one of those who are still waiting for their toy, but could imagine that sc could be used for that purpose as well.

are you aware that without a complete hardware replacement, the picocalc does not run Linux

Initial release 1981
Size 471 k

it might work

size is everything, after all :slightly_smiling_face:

let me load up .kkrieger on my picocalc, it’s only 96k after all

do the words “curses” and “termios” mean anything to you? sc is not the only thing you’ll have to port.

Yea when I wrote it, i didnt have my picocalc yet so most of the cursor positions and stuff was just 100% guesswork.

I will poke at it once my turkey coma is over.
