The WP43C emulator jumped ahead into a new dimension.
The alpha input screen has been improved significantly by Dani over the last few days. He cleaned up a lot of the visual clutter and made the key labels context sensitive.
- Firstly, the button labels change to A-Z when entering alpha mode with the yellow shifts on the bezel.
- Secondly, when shifted to upper case, upper case letters and upper case Greek letters appear, and the same with lower case.
Thank you very much Dani. I'm really glad he coded this one - all that GTK work is one too much for me. Well done. This, together with the full keyboard control that I did last week makes the emulator really nice to work with.
There were also a few emulator and firmware bug fixes, in particular the navigating of menus in alpha mode had a few bugs that I fixed (which I caused in the first place). Also Martin's proper parallel function, and some general updates from the main 43S project that was integrated into the code.
Also quite nice is the ALPHA HOME concept that I introduced after an idea Dani verbalised. Triple shift pulls up the menu in alpha mode.

Upper case left, lower case right. Note the upper case A and lower case alpha in the screen to right indicating case.
