I've written a document which describes how TI-82 assembler was
developed. You should find it if you search for "Hacking the TI-82
calculator" on ticalc.org,

The method used to start assembler programs on TI-82 works just as
well on TI-85. My 85 was actually the first calculator to try this
method since I didn't have an 82 when I first got the idea. But why
would you use this rather clumsy way when you've got the custom menu
hack?
