Here is a list of possible alternatives to TIOS for the TI-83+/83+SE/84+/84+SE:
CEPTIC by Michael Vincent: CEPTIC is an acronym for Control and Execute Program for TI Calculators. ...This version is 83+ SE only, but it shouldn't be too hard to modify to run on the regular 83+ as well. Just remove the extra ports, and modify a few of the flash pages (7Dh...1Dh, et cetera). I'm just happy that I had the ability and knowledge to actually create a working (though non-practical at current) operating system. (Quoted from the linked site.)
PongOS by FloppusMaximus: A free, if rather simple, operating system for the TI-83 Plus family of graphing calculators... (Quoted from the linked site.)
Vera by UnitedTI: What is Vera, you ask? Vera is the true calc lover's OS. It hasn't been coded yet, but the main idea behind it is that it consists of a very basic kernel that allows for file storage and some hardware control, on top of which other programs or plugins can be built. This approach has been nicked the Core Design Principle. It should make it possible for many people to work on one big project, without making it a huge mess.
If this will turn out to be true is to be found out, because not many z80 projects have been made by more than one person in the history of calculator programming. Vera will be designed for the Ti-83+ at first, and can perhaps later be ported to other "flashable" calculators. (Quoted from the linked site.)
CSX by Sean McLaughlin: CSX is a command line interpreter with an 89'ish layout. It can upload files from a PC (only TiLP has been tested), so it now potentially makes a great way to kill any number of minutes. (Quoted from the linked site.)
Nostalgy by XDG Kat-Productions: Nostalgy is an unofficial group project by certain members of XDG Kat-Productions. There is no working demo at the moment, but sources report that the project is not dead and that development is still slowly underway.
