HP-41 CATALOG - Siegfried (Austria) - 05-22-2013 When working through the manual of my newly acquired HP-41 I found it a bit strange that one can list all available functions via CATALOG but seemingly cannot select them (e.g. by pressing ENTER) from within the CATALOG (which would seem straightforward and less tedious than ALPHA "function name" etc. to me). Did I miss something or, if not, does anyone - maybe with HP roots - have an idea why it was designed to "show only".
Re: HP-41 CATALOG - Frido Bohn - 05-22-2013 The native HP 41 - to my knowledge either flavor, C, CV or CX - does not support function selection during CATALOG.

Cheers Re: HP-41 CATALOG - Ángel Martin - 05-22-2013 That´s correct - and neither does it work for CAT´1 programs in RAM. The rationale I guess was the user would already be familiar with those, so not so much gain.
Incidentally it does work in the FCAT function listing the sub-functions within an auxiliary FAT... see the PowerCL and the SandMath manuals.
