NAME¶
packxxk - pack TI graphing calculator software files
SYNOPSIS¶
packxxk [
-t type ] [
-d date ] [
-o
xxkfile ]
appfile ...
DESCRIPTION¶
packxxk is a program to generate Flash Application and OS files for the
Texas Instruments TI-73, TI-83 Plus, TI-84 Plus, TI-89, and TI-92 Plus
graphing calculators. The files generated are in the ``TIFL'' format used by
recent versions of TI's GraphLink and TI-Connect software.
The input file to
packxxk must be in TI-Hex or TIFL format to begin with,
and (in order for the application to be installed) it must have been digitally
signed before being packed.
packxxk does not do this, nor does it check
for the presence of a signature. You can use
rabbitsign(1) to sign
applications in several common formats.
If multiple input files are specified,
packxxk creates a multi-part TIFL
file.
OPTIONS¶
- -t type
- Specify the type of program (e.g., `8xk' for a TI-83 Plus
application, or `73u' for a TI-73 operating system.) The default behavior
is to infer the program type from the name of the input file. (If the
input file does not have a recognized suffix, the type is guessed based on
the contents of the program header.)
- -c id
- Manually specify the calculator device ID (e.g., 0x73 for
the TI-83 Plus, or 0x74 for the TI-73.)
- -d [ month/day/year |
day- month-year ]
- Manually specify the date stamp for the application. The
default is to use the current date in the local time zone.
- -o xxkfile
- Specify the output file name (default is to write to
standard output.)
