[comp.sys.handhelds] EQ LIB Question -- New command?

maksymc@jacobs.CS.ORST.EDU (Chris Maksymiak) (04/15/91)

I was fooling around with my Equation Library card...
Everyone who has one probably knows that 7 out of 8
of the libraries automatically attach themselves...
We also all should know that only 6 really show up
in the LIBRARY menu... the ones that show up are
numbered {268 269 270 271 272 273} the ones that don't
are {266 267}. The manual says that these are reference
libraries for the EQNLIB and what not, but try this:

	<< 266 MENU >>

You will notice that you get into a directory containing
one entry: ELSYSEVAL   Any one out there know what this
does?  I couldn't find a reference to it in the manuals
and I don't remember anyone posting about it either...

I think I will leave it to the masters to disassemble
that area of code and figure out what it does...

Someone please clue me in...

The ELSYSEVAL command executes any given XLIB like this:

2: library entry number in binary integer format
1: library number in same way
ELSYSEVAL

Will execute said XLIB. (or you might need to reverse order of args,
coz I can't check right now)
