The up-arrow/down-arrow keys were an enhancement added after the 17B and 27S were released. >Also, does the decimal point key (when used in the debugger) make the >cpu start executing at the displayed address? Yes. >Thanks, >Bill Chiarchiaro Have fun with these features, but don't expect any support from HP--they are in there to help HP identify problems. As for "synthetic programming" on the HP-42S, don't get your hopes up. There are a lot more internal checks for bogus parameters on the HP-42S than on the HP-41C. This will preclude such great ideas as SF 103, RCL 117, etc. -- Bruce Stephens bruce%hp-pcd@hplabs.HP.COM
