A86: Re: temp mem on the calc




Unless your program is large, the end of your program is a great source of
temporary memory which I highly recommend using over the text memory (that's
a leftover from 85 days). Just place labels at the end of your prog like
this:

PersonX = $ + 0
PersonY = $ + 1
etc.

If that doesn't work, you can use page 1. The exact address that can be used
are determined by the _FP and _OP pointers. Usually though it's gonna be
safe to go $8800 - $B800 which would give you 12kb to use. If you need more,
load in the pointers and use the max.
