Ok, maybe we should make another group.  comp.sys.hp48.forsale  
But  I currently own a 48S.  I'm looking for an 48SX.  I need the cable and
Equation Library cards for it also if at all possible.  Please E-mail me with a
response.  I will pay shipping.

Howdy all!  

After a nasty encounter with some bad batteries, I toasted all my memory on 
my HP..

I do realize it's possible for me to just go back and restore my backup of
calculator memory, but all I really need right now is the ASC conversion
program.. (ASC-> and ->ASC)  As I recall, those were in a directory..

Is it possible someone could post that for me?  Or, to save bandwidth, e-mail
me the stuff?

Thanks! :)

Hi,

	I have an HP 15C (which I've had for over 10 years
and it's still going strong - big suprise).   Just a little
while ago I turned it on and it decided to go to the European
way of displaying numbers, with dots where commas usually live,
and a comma instead of a dot.   Might anyone know how I can
change it back?   I've no idea where the book that came with
it is now.

	Thanks much,	Beth

The error results from a grob being packed with pkgrob which somehow
becomes corrupted.  This is only on the version which is on the EduCalc
disc 5.  To solve the problem, before downloading, edit the AIR
directory, and the PLANES subdirectory by deleting the grob named SST.P. 

Program operation is not changed, since the program looks to see if this
file exists, if it does not exist, the program jumps around the grob
display.

Good idea ... if it only would have worked.

Hello Netters,
	I have a 48sx with CMT 128k ram card, it was working fine until this
morning when I turned my calculator on this morning I this error message
		Warning: Invalid Card Data

I tried to reset the memory, using ON-A-C, cold restart but it still
gives the same message. When I remove the RAM card then every thing 
works fine. 48sx will only recognize the internal memory 32k.

I read the "RTFM" and FAQ I could not find any answer there. Any help
will be appriciated.

Thanks

OK, the second routine works fine with a small modification:

No you did not!

Enter 'Int(0,2,e^(i*x),x)' ->NUM and it will say Error: Non-Real Result
       ^^^integral symbol
 
Insert EVAL in between INt... and ->NUM and you will get the anser you state.
This is because exp(x) is a known integral. Try integrating sin(x)/x or
exp(x^2) over a complex path, and you won't get any anwser.

There's no possibility for me to decode both the former sent and the ZIPped

Ever notice that the people who buy the hp48s trying to save alittle always

I also have noticed it, and it seemed more pronounced when I have 2 
SC 32K cards in and haven't had the calc on for a while.  It seems
that turning on the calc causes a relatively heavy load on the batteries.
I have a theory that inside the calc the capacitors lose their charge and 
when the "on" button is pressed, the heavy load of charging the capacitors
would "flash" the display (why a heavy load would affect the display
is beyond me at this time) This effect is more pronounced when I have two
32K SC cards in. (more battery drain). WHen I went to get my SC cards,
I asked to try one out first, and the card's voltage requirements were a
little too picky for my calc, so it caused the pins to lock, thus increasing
the drain on the batteries, and sure enough, the screen went dark.  So, I DO
think that the display flash has to do with the battery condition, so to speak.
(A weak battery would have more of a shock when a heavy load was put on it)
Just my 2 scents.

My 1st attemp was:

%%HP: T(3)A(D)F(.);
\<<
  "\->" SWAP
  DO
    SWAP " " +
    OVER "`" NUM + CHR +
  UNTIL
    OVER 1 - DUP NOT

  DROP
  "\<<HALT" + STR\->
\>>
85.5 bytes

But Brians modified 2nd solution is 6 bytes shorter:

%%HP: T(3)A(D)F(.);
\<<
  "\->" 1 ROT
  FOR i
      " " +
      i "`" NUM SWAP OVER + CHR +
  NEXT

Hi Panagiotis!

The Goodies Disks are provided by Joseph Horn and although G.D.#8 is
available from EduCALC for $4.95, Joe has not had the time yet to
compress and upload it to ftp 128.109.221.20 but he said he would try to
do this on Thanksgiving. (Is that November 11 - I'm Scottish, so don't
know these things !)

HOWEVER, THAT DOES'NT STOP ANYONE WHO HAS A COPY TO DO THE UPLOADING FOR
THE BENEFIT OF THE REST OF US.  [|8-))

In case anyone missed it, just about any hp files you want can be found at:

seq.uncwil.edu

anonymous ftp.  I thank those of you who told me this.

Regarding the C$ $ and Detlef's RPL-> routine, the suggestion that Detlef
should have included the C$ $ instead of C$ xxx in his routine so that it
wouldn't have problems with the edutor indicates that you don't quite
understand what is happenning.  I believe that it is the EDITOR, not the
RPL-> routine that is responsible for this.  If the HP48 editor sees a
string with imbedded quote marks in it, it automatically enters the
editor with the C$ xxx format.  Whether you specify a string with quote
marks or with the C$ xxx format, the HP48 represents the string
internally as the same object, specifically, as a 5 nibble prolog
followed by a 5 nibble length and the ascii character codes.  It is the
editor which decides how to prestent the string to the user for editing.

Hope this clears it up a little more,

Menu grobs builder can be defined by a LabelDef! call. Executing MTH menu
defines a program (at address 3F040) that makes a dir-label of a string.
