hp 50g Programming - David Sgroi - 01-16-2013 Is there a way to set the 50g so when you program the program lines stay uniform instead of just becoming one big paragraph . Maybe there an editor out there that can be used ?
Re: hp 50g Programming - peacecalc - 01-16-2013 Hello David, the only possibility I know is: to write the program in a string and store it as a string, then the formatting stays without changes. But before running you have to convert the string with STR-> and use EVAL.
Sincerely

Re: hp 50g Programming - Eddie W. Shore - 01-16-2013 Strings sounds like a good idea. Maybe changing the font size may help. Don't forget to add line breaks (right shift, decimal point button) - I found them tp help... if not perfectly. Hope this helps,

Re: hp 50g Programming - Chris Smith - 01-16-2013 I tend to compose my programs from lots of small ones. It doesn't get out of hand then and no complicated editing scenarios are required.
As for management, I keep each program to less than a screen if possible.
Re: hp 50g Programming - David Hayden - 01-17-2013 If it's long enough to worry about formatting, then I compose the program on my PC and upload it to the calculator. Not only do you get to preserve formatting that way but also comments. For UserRPL I use HP User Edit. Note that the program is normally in Spanish but you can get English language files. For SystemRPL I use Debug4x. I think it can do UserRPL also but I just haven't taken the time to figure it out.
