Re: Another query about storage of HP41 programs Message #2 Posted by Etienne Victoria on 16 June 2006, 12:37 a.m., in response to message #1 by Bill Lafferty
This rule "the first label in a program is the name of the program" only applies to programs located in RAM because this is the way your 41 manages the CATALOG 1 function: it scans memory looking for 1st labels & ENDs.
In tape or disk mass storage, this rule does not apply. These media have a directory structure that manages a full filename & filetype.
This filename (in your case "BP") may be/is completely different of the first label within the program (LABEL "SHELL" or anything else).
