now that is some customer service! is it because the customers are not real ones as such? what a difference when something is done for love...
BTW the above is a problem in a way with the HP48 too (under slightly different circumstances) and was never addressed.

No kidding. I didn't expect less than 12 hour turn around. Thanks Paul and Marcus. This is some amazing work you're doing. I'm having a good time programing this thing and exploring all the new commands.

It would have been a sub one hour turn around except that I couldn't access the build server at the time.
I'm glad to hear you're enjoying the calculator. In many ways, it is a keystroke programmers' dream.

I have discovered something else that I think should work but I get an error.

24.0159 24H aTIME
I get bad time or date. On the 41c this can go up to 99 hours. Maybe relax the 24 hour check. Especially in 24 hour mode. Just my $0.02 worth.
v3.0 2513
