Typing Text
When you create a new Text Editor session, you see an empty screen. When you open a
previous session or return to the current session, you see the existing text for that
session.
You do not need to press
¸
at the end of each line. At the end of a line, the next
character you type wraps to the next line. Press
¸
only when you want to start a new
paragraph.
As you reach the bottom of the screen, previous lines scroll off the top of the screen.
Using a USB cable and TI Connect™ software with the TI-89 Titanium, you can use the
computer keyboard to type a text file and then send that file to the TI-89 Titanium. This is
useful if you need to create a lengthy text file.
For information about obtaining cables or updated TI Connect™ software, check the TI
web site at
education.ti.com, or contact Texas Instruments at TI-Cares™.
Notes:
