HP48G soft menu toggle: How?

Perhaps you can you use the built-in SI / ENGL toggler for this: Press right-shift 3 and see them on the F1 and F2 keys. They control flag 60 (clear = SI, set = ENGL), so your programs can test flag 60 (that's positive 60, a "user flag") to see which mode is set. This would obviate the need to program your own mode-switching softkey.
