Hmm, as far a I know the first one who could have a vague idea of these
memory areas is Jean Carot, at least he used the type+name in his ZES
(Ti83) shell. His shell though moves the program back again to it's
original place, he just simply put a 'Return' command into the
program-header and that's it. So he didn't need use the pointers, I don't
know if he did understood what they were used for.

Tijl Coosemans found out what these pointers all meant. And I have just
searched the other Ti's for this memory area... Only found them on the
Ti82/83(+), but I think the Ti85/86 also has something like these.
