[50g] writing prgrms pc then send to 50g
2007-02-17 by Gordon Ayres
I am a new user on the 50g. Old user other models before the 49+
series of calculators.
Using the link kit the instructions seem terse and I am entering a
trial and error mode of experimentation to make things work. Old hp 41
and hp71 series had seamless ways of saving programs to tape once
written but do not have the ability to write on pc and transfer to
calculator. However, the manuals and capabilities where clearly given
through examples of everything you needed to archive and restore from
tape. I know that this calculator has the capability to make transfers
form pc text to the calculator and I will eventually get there.
Here is a company that seems to have this under control and sales a CD
that will install its programs on the calculator from the CD using the
link kit. So I know that the capability must be within my grasp.

Is there a good explanation of how to write programs on your PC and
how to transfer them efficiently to the calculator?
I have transferred a text file to the stack on the calculator then
edited it on the calculator replacing the double left and right
programming enunciators with HP enunciators but this is a tedious
process and seems I might as well write the programs on the calculator
in the first place.
Any ideas or help would be appreciated.
Best regards
