Programmable Calculators

Is there any emulation/simulation programmable calculator software on RISC OS on my Raspberry Pi 3 B anywhere please – especially for Vintage Calculators such as HP-15c, HP-41CX or TI-57/8/9s.

Vintage Calculators such as HP-15c, HP-41CX or TI-57/8/9s.

None that I have ever found.
The linux GTK versions should port with the GCCSDK kit but I tried once and failed. There are a lot of libraries involved with gui stuff, There are people experienced in the Desklib port stuff that probably could, but more than likely don’t have the interest in vintage calculators.
There is a javascript version of an early HP online, I needed Oregano to run it.
There is a Programmers HP emulator that can run in a modern Browser, maybe the newer ports of Linux browsers could do the web page versions, but they dont have programmability.
Otherwise I have a command line version of HP style RPN calculator called Kalc.
Let me know if it is of interest to you.

I still have an old desktop application, called HP-11C, version 0.5, written by Richard Francis in 1990, after an original Amiga program. As far as I know it does what it should do. Looks very nice.

PS: It does need Aemulor to run, though.

PPS: The help file says it’s Public Domain. So, if you’d like to have a look, I could send it to you.

Keeping with the spirit of the time it was written surely it would be wrong not to send it on a floppy disk?

Keeping with the spirit of the time this request was made, I should probably present it on a golden plate.

I am also looking for such a emulation/simulation programmable calculator software for RISC OS, however I still cannot find a proper one.

Here is one: HP11
It needs Emulator to run, unless you have an Archimedes.

Two things Paul

1. The link syntax doesn’t seem to be right
2. The SSL certificate on your www host is for “riscos.sprie.nl” which would be a server “riscos” in the domain “sprie.nl” – the “www” server exists in the domain “riscos.sprie.nl”

The syntax for web links is given in the “Formatting Help” at the bottom of the page.

For the certificate issue This link should help you understand the problem.

Thanks, Steve, but what happens on your side when clicking on the link? Here, it just downloads the app, both on the 4té as on the Windows machine.

Wait, perhaps you tried the link immediately after I posted the message. There was a syntax error indeed (forgot the http stuff), but that was fixed one minute later. Could you please try again?

Fast clickin’ here :)
Just happened to be in the bit of the day between feeding the cats (important), letting them out, and in and feeding them again, having breakfast…
…and then work

New link is fine.

The visibility of the certificate problem came from slicing out your intended link from the origin riscos open element and retaining the HTTPS.
