possible to use PopChar to put the cursor character into=20
the DELc buffer, then place it into the program (or am I just =
confused?)?


One problem with TI-Basic though, is if u hit the [ON] key, it breaks =
the=20
program...however, I am writing a fake memory clearing program in =
ZShell.  I will post up the beta on list-zshell-binaries in a few days =
(or when I get it done) or mail it to anyone who wants it.
