Putting cursor characters in strings

We're glad you came by, but you might find what you're looking for elsewhere.

TI-Basic Developer is not the site it once was. While its information on commands and other calculator features remains almost second-to-none, its forum, archives, and even hosting service, Wikidot, have been decaying for years. The calculator community would love to see what you're working on, or help you in your next coding adventure, but TI-Basic Developer is no longer the place to do it.

Instead, you should head over to Cemetech (primarily American) or TI-Planet (primarily international). Both are active, well-established forums with their own archives, chatrooms, reference material, and abundant coding tools and resources. We'll see you there, we hope.

Putting cursor characters in strings

I want to use an hexidecimal assembly program to store the cursor selection characters (particularly the checkerboard, but also the alpha, 2nd, alpha underscore, lowercase, lowercase underscore, and lowercase 2nd) into a string on my TI-84+CE. Does anybody have a hex code to do this? I found one old one after digging around on the site:
:Asm84CEPrgm
:EFD74A
:EFEF4A
:7B
:EF0445
:C9
Unfortunately, it does not work on my TI-84+CE. Anybody have a solution?

Could you link the page where you found the code please? It might be easier to create your own sprites of 2nd, alpha, and lowercase alpha, but I don't know what you mean by the other ones you mentioned. You could do it in Basic but might slow down your program if you draw the sprite too often. I know assembly is hard to learn, but creating a sprite in it seems easier than looking through the documentation for special characters/sprites or trying to find the error in that hex code.

It was somewhere in the forums, for some reason I can’t seem to find it again…
