"...These are some of the basic system routines the TI-83 uses to

will be documented if there seems to be a need for it..."

THERE'S NEED!!!!!  I got 50 signatures...

Ok, coming right up...but please look at them, and don't disregard it like
you did the petition.  I don't think you guys even LOOKED at the petition,
