[A83] Re: TI-83 Symbols
You can find romcalls for createreal, createstrng, etc. in squish.inc.
Documentation on most of these can be found in the 83+ sdk pdf.
There are also some romcalls named createvar3, createpvar3, createpvar4
which may do something interesting. If anyone knows what these do, I'd love
to know.
