Yes, I used to do that, too. Then I got tired of typing everything in and
ordered a homemade link cable from someone. It makes things a lot easier. :)

Right, the -> is the store key, the >= is greater than or equal to, <= is
less than or equal to, (-) is probably the sign change/negative key (not sure),
and <> is not equal to. The >=, <=, <>, among others should be under the
Test menu.

The keys in between slashes are ones that are a single key press on the
calculator but more than a single character when typing it in on the
computer. Therefore, they place it inside slashes to let you know all those
characters are a single group and thus one character on the calculator.
I'm sure there's a list of these codes somewhere on the web because I did
find one, but I can't remember where it is. Try searching the archives at
TICalc.org for document files or something. It's out there somewhere.
