Hi, I'm (relatively) new to ti-86 z80 programming and I 
discovered this list a few weeks ago, and I have just a few questions 
for anyone who wants to answer...

	1. Would anyone be interested (anyone = Bill Nagel) in modifying 
GreyBG so that it only displays on the homescreen? Or, if not, can I at 
least get some info on how it works?

	2. The ti-83 has flags that can be accessed off of IY like the 
86, but it includes some that are for asm programming use (ASM_FLAG1 
etc). Are there similar ones for the 86?

	3. Ram page 1 has the floating point stack and other boring 
stuff. Is there any part of this page that my asm program *can't* 
overwrite (it's not using any OP registers or anything?) I need a LOT of 
contiguous space for a game I'm making. I could back up the entire page 
into a string, but that would use 16k of memory while the program is 
running, so I don't want to do that. 

Thanks in advance.
