I have an idea to create new "extended" Main application for ClassPad. I think Main app is simple (by functionality) because calls other functions. It could be easy to create new similar app which will have some special functionality, for example possibility to call basic or lua functions (or programs) and display result in the main screen (we can use "system" variable to store the result and extended main app will display its content at the end of program). The greatest advantage would be support of C/C++ function which could be installed as add-in applications (some kind of function libraries) as it is for TI calcs (you can use functions from FLASH apps in HOME screen using NAME_OF_FLASH_APP.name_of_function() syntax). Then we can programm new functions and simply extend default ClassPad functions.

It is only idea because I can't write it. I don't know C++ language.

What do you think about it?

I'm sorry for my English. I hope you understand me what I mean.

No, we can only access the main app by our addin, can not access our addin from main in current SDK.

I meant to create whole new application similar to Main which can be used for standard calculations and for some other things. Not to access the main app.

We cannot call another add-in or run a Basic program from an add-in neither (MyPrograms is an exception, and we may not know how it works <_< )
The SDK does no allow us to do a lot more than what the "Main" application currently does :(

Please consider trying CPLua's interactive mode.
If you have some suggestions about it, feel free to post them :)
