One-Answer Software Question Thread

Is it possible to make Cube Explorer print solutions with wides move and rotations? It's a pain manually translating each one.
For example, CE gives R2 D B' U B' U' B D' R2 F' U F U' which I have to convert to R2 u R' U R' U' R u' R2 y' R' U R. But it takes a while to do this for every single solution, and I might miss some good algs too.
 
Hi,

I need a cube timer that will save my times forever. I want to be able to record my times and then keep them so I can see my progress over time. Something where I can login might be good. Free too.

Thanks for any help!

I use Prisma, but it's Java based. I like it because I can use it offline, and I'm in control of backups (its just a file so I have a scheduled task which keeps a copy in my Google drive without me needing to do anything).

Cstimer does keep your times forever in theory, but in practice clearing your data in your browser can delete your times. It's a good idea to export your times into a spreadsheet if you're afraid of that happening.

Wait.. I tried to copy the file to drive and download it again, but the data wasn't saved. How do you backup the data? Does an external file exist, that holds the data?

Yeah, it creates a database file in the same folder as the program. I can't remember offhand but I think it has a name like puzzzletimer.h2.db or something like that.

Will that work on ios?
 
Any software on mobile to generate algs?

Just say yes or no. For some reason the last post didn't get any answer. You guys can just say nope the technology isn't there yet.

Modern phones have more computational power than the 2010 laptop I'm typing this post on, and I programmed/tested the JS version of the kilominx (kibiminx?) solver on this laptop. It's not that the technology isn't there. Phones are locked down because god forbid you actually try to use your pocket computer as a computer.

I don't know if this is a thing you can do on a phone, but on a typical computer web browser you can save gyroninja's custom scrambler for offline usage.

If you want to actually generate algs, there's a JS version of ksolve somewhere. (Again, on a real computer you can save this for offline usage.)
