Hello All, I was wandering if anyone knew how to make notations in a RPL program on the hp48sx. What I want to do is note the arguements in the beginning of each routine. The "@" works great on the PC but is deleted by the compiler when the program is saved. I have resorted to using a string followed by DROP. I was hoping to find something that was egnored during run time. One more thing, Does anyone know the SYSEVAL address of VIEW, and can it be run from a program???? Thanks for your help, Malcolm Gaylord mgaylord@eros.calpoly.edu

"comment" 1 DISP ... >> so I can keep track of what's going on. The other thing that helps is to use more descriptive variable (and program) names than "Acx1" or "BB". It's more a question of programming style than anything else. > One more thing, Does anyone know the SYSEVAL address of VIEW, and can it > be run from a program???? There are other ways to do what you want to do. For grobs, { } PVIEW or {#0 #0} PVIEW works well. For algebraics, 0 ->GROB { } PVIEW does the trick. There are workarounds for other object types, too. Not exactly what you were looking for, but a place to start... Regards Ray rrd@hpfitst1.hp.com
