That's a reasonable request. In fact, I can't remember why I didn't post executables for other platforms before. I guess I didn't think anyone outside of the Pico-8 community would want it, but I'm happy to provide it. I'll have time over the coming weekend to do some builds and alert you when they're posted.
Sorry for the delay. I’ve been deep in preparing a major update v2.0 update for one of my other projects. That will be released in a day or so then I can build (and test) these exe files. I’ll post them this week for sure.
I have uploade exe files for four major platforms. I have also added a few notes under "About This Release" that I highly recommend you read. I hope the program is of value to you.
Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you like it. For me, money would only add stress to a hobby that helps keep me sane. I'm happy to share my learnings with the community :)
Well alright, Christopher, but all I can say is WOW ! This is the most amazing Pico-8 program I have ever seen. Yes I like games, but I also like the depths of data too, deep thinking, chess, and the like. Calculators make the best toys. This to me is absolutely EPIC and is now my #1 favorite Pico-8 cart of all time.
I love the idea for this program, however....on my 0.2.4b Pico-8, it seems to crash whenever I try to do a SUM formula, and gives me "overflow" when I use decimals. Any idea what might be causing this? It's doing it on both my Windows desktop and Raspberry Pi.
@comchia Hmm... I'm on Windows 10 and just installed Pico-8 0.2.4b. I put in 3 decimal values (1.123, 2.234, 3.345) into cells A1, A2, A3 and in A4 entered @sum(a1..a3) (note: two dots between cell labels, not three)
Next, I put in horizontal entries using very large decimal values: 1.123456789, 2.23456789, 3.3456789486 and ran a summation on those to properly receive 6.7037(etc...)
So far, it is working as expected for me. Could you please provide more detail about the values you entered and the summation formula you attempted?
I am able to make it crash using the # symbol (used for value copying, rather than formula copying). But this is unrelated to @sum or decimal values; it is a string parser error. I suspect this particular bug has existed for a while though :/

This is impressive! PICO-8 is so great for creating that retro-computing experience. I'm having flashbacks to my early days as an accountant.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it and I apologize for any accountant-related PTSD it may have inflicted. I should put a warning screen at the start.
this is an interesting tool, but sadly i cant afford pico-8 right now, could there be an executable file for windows?

oh dont worry, i would love if u can do it, and sorry for bothering u with this, thanks you for the reply

OMGosh ! I am so impressed ! If you would please post a version where a money amount is suggested that I may send you. Stellar work here.

That's extraordinarily nice of you to say. Thank you very much!
You are more than welcome !
You’re a genius!
Very kind of you to say, thank you.
