Hint on String Copying
To use the Copy/Paste string functions, items must be converted to/from
quoted strings on the stack. The EMU Edit Copy String/Paste String
functions can do this but they only handle strings. See below to convert
strings.
The HP48 and HP49 have many special characters that will not be properly
handled by some Windows text editors. Usually this means the special
character shows as a square box which will copy back to the HP calculator
without a problem. Some editors will convert the box into a different
character destroying the meaning and the ability to copy back into the EMU.
Windows Notepad, Wordpad and, of course, Debug4x all work fine for this.
To Copy From EMU
1. Put the item on the stack
2. Use the PRG ->STR command to make the item a quoted string.
On the HP49, this is left-shift CAT CHARS ->STR
To Copy To the EMU
1. Use Edit / Paste to put the quoted string on the stack
2. Use the PRG OBJ-> command to unquote the object.
On the HP49, this is left-shift CAT CHARS OBJ->
View Menu
- Change KML Script: The KML script determines the calculator color and
appearance. Scripts can be found at
HPCalc.org.for download. The scripts
furnished with Debug4x have been checked for operation with Debug4x.
Other scripts may not work as wellbut try them and see!
Tools Menu
- Disassembler: disassembles memory into SATURN Assembly code
- Debugger: the debugger is not available unless EMU is run in a
standalone version. Use Debug4x
RPL or
ASM
Debugging Windows instead.
