I neglected to mention that I'm now using an HP 49g+ and would like to use a similar program for that calculator. I will check www.hpcalc.org for such a program. Mark

The program consists of pure SysRPL, no Saturn assembly this time, so porting it to the doorstop series shouldn't be too difficult;-) HTH Raymond

While running the program, you can 'draw' on the work space, and it'll simultaneously show your current drawing in normal and inverse video on menu key locations, as a preview. This program is very handy for creating custom menu grobs. Raymond
