Newsgroups: comp.sys.handhelds Subject: (HP48SX) How many digits is the display set to anyway? Followup-To: Distribution: world Organization: State University of New York @ Buffalo Keywords: Here is RCLND, a program that RCL's the number of digits the current display mode is set to. %%HP: T(3)A(R)F(.); DIR RCLND \<< 0 -48 -45 FOR J 2 * J FS? + NEXT \>> END As written, it returns a value between 0 and 15. (If only STD, ENG, FIX, and SCI were used to set/clear flags -45 thru -48, then only values in the range of 0..11 will be returned.) You can add tests for -49 and -50 if you want to know whether it is STD, FIX, SCI or ENG. Hope someone finds it useful. -JimC -- James H.
