[comp.sys.handhelds] HP48 ML & rpl questions

cmeyer@milton.u.washington.edu (Colin Meyer) (03/14/91)

I have been doing a little hacking, & I have a couple of questions:

1. How can I put an object that I create on the stack (from ml).  I assume
   that the easiest way to create an object is to use the string allocating
   routine & modify it as needed.

2. How do I do loops in system-rpl?

3. What range does the crc in a library cover, and what is the easiest
   way to calculate it?  Occasionally, I have wanted to make small changes
   to a library by hand in the memory scanner, as to not have to re-compile it

Thanks for any help.

-Colin.

From what I can tell, the crc excludes only the header field and itself.
The size field does include the crc.
