It has a new option - flash apps (f7)

#1 in the apps menu is the flash apps rather than home, and a shortcut is <> 
APPS.
Also, the mem screen now has more rreset options now.

Btw, for those who have written their own functions (or basic programs), I've 
figured out how to set your own "parameters" for the catalog menu.

:slope(a,b,c,d)
:Func
:(C)X1,Y1,X2,Y2
:return (d-b)/(a-c)
:EndFunc

Where the (C) is the comment thingy.  This works the same in basic progs 
afaik.
