RE: [50g] Re: Purge all single letter variables A through Z?

2008-08-12 by Jeremy Hawdon

Hi Arthur,

Right shift 0 should work (if you are in alpha mode) bout OBJ\--> is a
command found in the TYPE menu (left shift PRG TYPE). The checksum is
produced if you put a copy of the program on the stack and press left shift
PROG MEM BYTES, it is useful for checking that you have entered the program
correctly.

 

If you always wish to call this program to clear all single letter variables
'visible' from a sub-directory, you could store it under a suitable name in
home and add PATH as the first instruction in the program. Then when it is
called from the sub-directory(perhaps using the custom menu) there will be
no need to put anything on the stack.

Thanks Jeremy,
Still struggling with this. Just noticed a tick mark between the
quotation marks; I swear I didn't see that before this reply. Not sure
about the "-->", if right shift 0 doesn't work I'll try the right
shift CHARS one. I'm familiar with checksum, but have not run across
it in relation to the 50g. I'm totally stumped on that one.

Thanks, Arthur
