Question about HP71B Variable Names

[Valentin Albillo]

Hi, J-F:

In the linked thread you say:

Quote:The Fast Integer Processing comes from the HP-85 [...] It's a shame that the same feature was not included in the HP-71B!

It seems they needed the ROM space for the useless abomination called "CALC mode", as some über-imbecile people decided it would bring more sales appeal than having much faster program execution.

Hey, J-F, come to it, why don't you edit CALC mode out of the System ROMs and use the recovered ROM space (5 Kb) to provide instead the super-useful keywords in the STRINGLX file and some other worthy LEX files, as you did with the enhanced Math ROM ?

The resulting 1CDDD (say) System ROMs could then be available as part of your Ultimate ROM and/or the MultiMod. A dream come true !

Best regards.
V.
