A89: Re: Creating Strings



Each file has a type signature at the end of the file.  To make the file a string, simply write the hex byte (or was it a word) 0x2d to the end of the file (IIRC).
 
to make the string "Hi", you should write 0, 'H', 'i', 0, 0, 0x2d to the file.  (I might have put in too many zeroes at the end there, I can't remember exactly how it works)
 
There is a zip file floating around ticalc.org's site (it's called something like 92guide.zip) with information about the 92's FAT and such, but a lot of it applies to the 89, so it's worth looking at.

How can you create string rather than an assembly file on the computer?  Also, is there a way to create a string through assembly commands?  I tried createfile in filelib, but it just creates an expression.  Thanks.
