Jimmy Conner has already made a Dissassembler that can do a prog from any z80 
calc. And Dan Englender has already made on that works On-Calc in his program 
called Calcsys. I think your efforts to make such a program would be wasted. 
Btw, why start on such a large project if you just learned how to send a 
Hello World type prog to your calc? I think you need more experience in 
coding first, and you should start out learning by making smaller programs.
