PrimeComm - toml_12953 - 04-15-2015 10:58 PM

Is PrimeComm dead? The site where I usually check for new versions is down and I haven't seen anything here giving an alternate. I have version .22 and it works fine but it's nice to keep up with new features if there will be any.

The other library + TUI front-end dealing with the Prime is libhpcalcs ( http://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/thread-52.html , https://github.com/debrouxl/hplp ).
Due to being written in portable and interoperable C code, the library could have been (and could still be) used as a basis for PrimeComm, whose GUI is unmatched, even if it's not portable.

Another, portable, option could be to wrap the code into a library accessible from Java and create a Java (Swing) based GUI.
