Re: A86: sqrts and the VAT, and RE: Labels in .db




What you could do is store your extra code in a string, then when it's
needed copy it to somewhere on ram page 1.  This memory should be free
if the calc is on the home screen...  i.e.  copy it to like $9000 and
then do a call $9000.  You'll need to make sure page 1 is actually there
though...

Also I think the shell developers list is pretty much dead.
