{{ One of the many troubles with the on calc complier is the fact that if the
code is executed and flaws are in it the calc will crash.  That alone almost
defeats the purpose of making a compiler!  Unless of course you want to make
a debugger and then i would say have fun :)  Although this would be great to
have on any calc it would be hard to over come the problems.  Good Luck

What do you think of when you hear "oncalc compiler"...i think of the ability
to have error checks, priveladge levels, and all the stuff.  I mean, there is
no point to having it, like you said, if it is able to crash, but there are
always failsafes.  Yes, sometimes these failsafes are not foolproof, but they
keep the "small" errors from happening.
