Re: A82: OS-82 bug/drawback




I of course am aware of this, your version is just outdated.  Get OS-82
version 1.1 from ticalc.org.  That fixed that little mishap, and as far as
I know, there are no other "bugs" in OS-82, which has been out for about a
month or so.  The "slowing down" of calculations is simply because of the
memory being used by programs.  If you have a lot of normal basic programs
on your calc and do a calculation, it's a LOT slower than if you did the
same calculation with reset memory.
