That's what I use. In my experience, programs for the 11C, 15C, 41C, etc. aren't so long that keying them in now and again is a major imposition; rather, the issue is remembering what the heck a program identified by a 4-character label actually does, if you haven't used it for a few years. I like to write out my short programs in a small notebook, along with explanatory notes and comments. I insert printed listings (for the 41C) in the back, just in case of errors.

I also keep a small (about 2.5" x 4") Moleskine on my desk next to my 48SX. I can easily tell what the programs are meant to do based on name, but I get sick of having to reread the code whenever I forget what parameters they expect.

If it were just a little bit smaller, I could even fit it inside the unused second card slot.
