[HP-Prime] - Shortcuts for program writing - Jean-Michel - 10-31-2013

Hello Tim,

would it be possible to have the following characters ":=" and ":" available on soft keys in programming environment? This would be very helpful and would avoid to open the Chars table each time we need them.

Other thing: please add a *space* character in the message displayed by the INPUT() command, between the text "Entrer valeur pour" (in French) and the name of the variable. The two strings are sticked one to the other, and this is unaesthetic, if not really annoying.

Kind regards.

That would be nice, but you certainly don't need the Chars table for := because [ALPHA] [-] [Shift] [.] is a lot faster. (Forgive me if you already knew that.)

Les touches de fonctions 'en bas de l'écran) n'étant pas gérées par le système du clavier, ca va être compliqué.

Par contre tu peux programmer une touche utilisateur au clavier.

as a requirement

[shift-hold] + [.] => :=

or

[shift-hold] + [EEX] => :=

[shift-hold] + [+/-] => |

[shift-hold] + [9] => ->

[shift] + [ENTER] => switch to approximate mode (no approx command), because there is a dedicated key for that purpose [a b/c]

Hello


Thanks to you all. My fault, in fact. I'm not used to the keyboard enough, and more to say I was writing my program at night in poor light condition.

Now I see that all necessary characters are available from keyboard.

Kind regards.
