[comp.sys.handhelds] Syntax error in d/l Gravity game.

Arg.

Well, I was downloading the Gravity game into my hp48SX, and got an InvalidSyntax error. The game where you shoot a projectile and see how the planets' masses affect the trajectory.

Well, at about packet #2, I got this syntax error. It also shows '\<< RCLF \-> f        ...'. I suppose that is what's screwing it up. Does anyone know what's wrong? It would seem to be a keen game. Also, a LONG road trip looms,and hp48 games would be nice to bring along,......



Thanks zillions-

I can tell you exactly what happened, because the same thing happened to
me.  You chopped off the "%%HP" line with the transmission modes in it,
so the HP didn't know how to handle the escape sequences.
