Here is a program I wrote so that I could put special characters in
code/strings/ etc. I later rewrote the program using all the sysevals I
could to make it faster. It is now about 3 times faster than before. This
shows the use of the sysevals to those who are just getting into it. The
sysevals were taken from the list posted here several weeks ago (the
infamous syseval list). Hope someone else can use this too.

usage: 3. replacement character
2. character to replace
1. program/string/whatever to change
result: string on level 1 with characters changed
This is probably meaningless but here are some stats:
string length time in seconds

[Replace all the Z's with U's]

Hope someone else can use this too. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ > > Robert Thompson > Center for Computer Assisted Engineering > Colorado State University Hi: Could someone send me this infamous list? I am a fairly new subscriber to this group, and must have missed it the first time around. Also, any information as to Titles, prices and availability of any of the internals books for the HP28S would be appreciated. Cheers, Gregory Pease ucbvax!unisoft!glp
