There is only one interrupt, AFAIK (and I'm one of the ones who figured it
out). There is also a key interrupt, which I haven't figured out. But I
haven't seen a program (other than the ti-demo program) that uses it. So
there should only be one user interrupt on the calc at a time. And there's
no way (AFAIK) to find out what program installed it.

There _are_ 4 areas like the user interrupt area, but I don't know what
they are all for. One is the user interrupt, one is a key interrupt, but I
don't know about the other two.
