There were at least a couple routines written for the 86 that do this. Look
in the source directory on ticalc.org. The code should work just the same
on the 83.

What program was it? Why don't you check out the source for that program,
or dissassemble it and find out how it does it? Or just use a shell.
Unless your program is the only one on the calc, there isn't much point in
having the code duplicated in every program.
