Mine's gone off the bottom of a page. Currently finishing off my first large project, a 'space race' game, and have started working on a GeekSafe replacement....
Mine's very short at the moment, and it's perpetually stalled until I get my first game finished (Consequences) I should try hide() and show() according to...
Can the Newton connect to databases through either NS or C++? It'd be nice to have a game that made use of a internet database (especially if I can get it...
It would be interesting to come up with a standard database access layer for the Newton. Ideally it would just look like a soup, so applications could use...
Another thing to try if you just wish to blank a 'text slot: SetValue(view, 'text, nil); The Newton should automatically mark the view dirty and redraw with...
Hey folks. I also have a perpetual list of Newton software that I'd like to write, if I could only find the time. On and off it has included the following: -TV...
Hi newtonprogramming! As Perl programmer I want to program my favorite machine (Newt ;) ) with my favorite language (Perl). Does anyone knows whether perl...
Folks, I'm fetching and parsing an HTML file with nHTTPLib, and I'd like to know the appropriate way to terminate the connection (without producing an error or...
... Hmm, no, there's never been any interpreter or compiler for the Newton. But if you like Perl so much, maybe that could be your greatest challenge: write a...
... I'd thought about it, but wondered about two things: how much Java waba supports and learning its restrictions; and how many other people have it...
... If you're familiar with OO programming in Perl you'll quickly get the feel of NewtonScript. So much of Perl revolves around linear text files and...
... Hmmm... I'll think about it. BTW now I'm learning NewtonScript programming. 'll try to write something like Perl-Rx-machine in NewtonScript. ... Yep. I've...
As I understand it, the Newton can be programmed using C++. How hard is it to make source that's compatible with both the Newton and PC? Does the Newt need a...
Is there any way to use the Infrared port on the Newton more like a serial port, i.e., being able to set the baud rate, byte size, stop bits, parity bits,...
Hi. I am just getting started in Newton programming. What techniques are used to perform fast pixel plotting? Will newtonscript allow fast screen redraws or...
Which one were you reading? If it's the one I wrote sorry, I keep meaning to find the last part but every time I sit down to put the rest of it up I get...
Hi list, Can anyone tell me a simple way to open the normal serial port and read from it (reading each byte so it can be processed). I am used to programming...
What's on your to do list for programming with the Newton? Is there a program you're developing without use of the Newton for use with the Newton? (Something...
... One of these days I'm going to put that last touches to my first real program - a space race game. Next after that is a Geeksafe replacement. I've got the...
I am going to try and upload some coding for a few miscellaneous Newton apps. The apps were developed by former Newton developer Paul Jones of Australia. Don't...
Ive been meaning to get started on a couple projects, and even if I dont finish them it should be helpful for someone else to pickup where I left off. Two...
Are you able to open the files and get to something that looks like code? I'm having trouble getting NTK to do anything useful with the files, it doesn't...
One of the reasons I bought a Newton a few months before it was canceled was as a kind of portable programming platform. Never really used it like that. But...
