A89: Re: Re: Re: Custom Variables




    Wow, that's neat.  How does the calculator know how to use custom
variables?  If you had a library with the type "LIB," would you still be
able to use it?  Or if you had a regular assembly language program, but gave
it a different type, would you still be able to run it?
