You know, I've had my TI-85 for almost 5 years now, and never knew
that. Is that documented in the manual and I just missed it? It's
quite a nifty trick, although not particularly intuitive if you don't
know about it. Perhaps it should be in the FAQ? I don't know how many
times I'll start on a program, and about 3/4 through it realize the
name is pretty dumb and want to change it, but was stuck since I
didn't know how to. Heck, I didn't even think it was possible.
