HIDeous

This program turns the Ti-84 CE into a working keyboard by emulating a HID device over USB. No extra software required!

Installation

  1. Install TI-Connect CE.
  2. Connect your calculator to your computer.
  3. Send clibs.8xg to your calculator
  4. Send HIDeous.8xp to your calculator.

Usage

Changing the key layout

To change the key layout you'll need to compile HIDeous yourself. Don't worry, it's a fairly straightfoward process.

  1. Install the CE toolchain
  2. Download the source code
  3. In hid.c, change the keycodes in the map[] and/or special_map[] arrays. You can find the keycodes in usb_hid_keys.h
  4. Build the program and send the resulting 8xp file to your calculator.

Adding Macros

To add macros you'll need to replace the macro AppVars (HIDM1-HIDM5) with your own macro sequence. You can again use all of the keys defined in usb_hid_keys.h. By defaut, HIDeous will toggle the key twice in a short timeframe. If you want to toggle a key once to keep it pressed down, you need to preface the key with KEY_ONCE.
