A83: wish list
1) i would like to know how to turn on the graph cursor. i can get the
home screen cursor to go but for the life of me i can't get the graph
cursor to go! i wanted to possibly use it in an advanced drawing
program.
2) while searching for other things to put in the wish list, i thought
to myself, "look in squish.inc!" if you haven't you should. n e waz, i
found this:
_EXEC_ASSEMBLY equ 5102h
is this the call to execute a non-squished asm program? if so how is it
used?
3) a number of other calls i found in squish.inc are listed here that
caught my eye (not that they don't all make me die of curiosity).
_INIT_PROG_LIST equ 4F1Eh
what does this do?
_INSERTMEMA equ 4436h
how is this different from insertmem?
_KEYTOSTRING equ 480Dh
could this be used to mimic a basic Input in asm?
_GETKEYPRESS equ 47BDh
what does this do?
4) in squish.inc i saw a number of calls related to "edit". is this the
program editor? just for instance, this:
_EDITPROG equ 4E02h
_CLOSEPROG equ 4E06h
5) there was also a group of "exec" calls which seem to have many
possibilities.
COMPLEX_EXEC equ 4A14h
EXECUTE_Z80 equ 52E5h
GRAPH_EXEC equ 5188h
IO_EXEC equ 51EFh
PARSER_EXEC equ 4FDFh
PGMIO_EXEC equ 50B2h
6) the grapher i'm not so concerned about but it would be great to get
any info on it any way.
7) sooooo many calls in squish.inc were related to the parser. do you
realize what you could do if you knew how to use it?
8) error handling. hmmm... nothing is worse in a program than a runtime
error. it leaves the calculator in a mess. the best solution is usually
to reset your calc, but what if you don't have some where to get your
lost information from?
