NAME

SYNOPSIS

10       tiput [ options ] file ...
11
12

DESCRIPTION

14       tiput  sends  variable  and/or program files to a connected TI graphing
15       calculator.  The files to send may include normal  variables  and  pro‐
16       grams,  memory  backups,  Flash applications, and operating systems, in
17       any of the various formats supported by the tifiles2 library.
18
19       On newer calculators, tiput will check if the variables  already  exist
20       and  ask whether you want to overwrite them.  Use the -f option to dis‐
21       able this behavior.
22
23       On older calculators (the TI-82 and TI-85), you  must  manually  enable
24       link receive mode before sending variables.  The calculator itself will
25       then prompt you to overwrite, skip, or rename any duplicates.

28   PROGRAM OPTIONS
29       -a, --archive
30              Send all files to archive (Flash) memory, if  supported  by  the
31              calculator,  regardless  of  their previous state.  (By default,
32              files will be sent to archive if they were  previously  received
33              from a Flash calculator and are marked as archived.)
34
35       -u, --unarchive
36              Send all files to RAM, regardless of their previous state.
37
38       -f, --force
39              Do  not  check for duplicate variables before sending.  This has
40              no effect on the TI-82 and TI-85.
41
42       -C, --continue
43              On the TI-82 and TI-85, do not send  an  ``end-of-transmission''
44              command, so the calculator will remain in link receive mode.
45
46
47   LINK OPTIONS
48       -c, --cable=type[:port]
49              Use  the specified link cable (if unspecified, tiput will search
50              for USB cables connected to the system.)  The cable type may  be
51              either the full name (GrayLink, BlackLink, Parallel, SilverLink,
52              DirectLink, VTI, TiEmu, UsbKernel) or the 3-letter  abbreviation
53              (gry,  blk, par, slv, usb, vti, tie, dev).  For serial- and par‐
54              allel-port link cables, a port number must also be specified.
55
56       -m, --calc=type
57              Use the specified calculator model (if unspecified,  tiput  will
58              try to determine the calculator model by the filenames specified
59              on the command line.)
60
61       --timeout=n
62              Wait for up to n milliseconds for the calculator to respond.
63
64
65   OTHER OPTIONS
66       -v, --verbose
67              Print out details of link operations.
68
69       --help Print out program version information.
70
71       --version
72              Print out program version information.
