[86 Only Instructions]

Press [2nd Stats]

To create LISTS L1-L6 on the 86, arrow to the right until you come upon
a blank spot, then type L1 [enter].  Continue all the way to L6 (I
recommend that to every 86 user, I hate old 85's outdated xStat & yStat
system).  After that, if you want, move the cursor over xStat, yStat,
and fStat and hit [DEL] to remove them from the editor.

Applies to the 86 just fine, but if you type "LN L1" (quotations
included), you get an L3 that gets updated if L1 is modified.

I would, again, use "1/L2", but that works too.
