Reduce a 49g+ to 4 stack? Message #1 Posted by Eric Lundgren on 12 Mar 2005, 6:12 p.m. If the stack could be reduced (by a program or other?) to only four elements (ie 32sii xyzt), I suspect that the missed entry problem would be worked around.. Has anyone an idea to either limit the stack, or even create a font almost double the standard (8)? I just get too many errors as it is. Also, does anyone else experience this: In RPN mode, I enter: number, left shift, square and get this on the display: number { sq() } Its very frustrating, but only occasionally happens. Its as if it goes into eq. edit mode, or algebraic? Best regards, Eric

Message #2 Posted by R on 12 Mar 2005, 8:26 p.m., in response to message #1 by Eric Lundgren Hi, have you tried posting to comp.sys.hp48 , *the* newsgroup for the HP-48 and its relatives, even if they're so far away like the 49g+ ;-) I think the 49g+ is somewhat too young for a museum... Apart from that, I doubt that the missed key problem will go away by reducing the stack levels shown, because it's only like trying to cure a symtom, not the cause of the illness. And for your sq example: What do you expect from a calc that misses key strokes... Raymond
