Hello, all:
I received my set of MoHPC CDs a couple of days ago, and am having fun reading the manuals for old calculators I never had.
Just browsing the HP-65 manual, for example, I came across something really weird on page 27: The sequence of keys [STO][.] and [RCL][.]. Here's what the manual says:
"Clearing Unwanted Prefix
"[f][PREFIX] cancels the effect of a prefix so that a non-prefix operation can be done.
{yadda, yadda, yadda}
"The above procedure can also be used to clear these additional keys: [STO], [RCL], [DSP], [GTO], [LBL], [STO][.], [RCL][.]."
I'm sure this must be a typo. I've never heard of this key sequence anywhere (except on the HP-41; was the writer of the HP-65 manual having a premonition of things to come?). Just the same, I'd like to have confirmation from any of you HP-65 owners out there. The manual doesn't mention either of these key sequences ever again, nor is it in the index.
Any idea what the manual should read instead? The paragraph I snipped already mentions [f], [f-1] and [g], so it can't be that.
X<>Y,
Ernie Malaga
