Go to the 2D/3D Input form and in the equation field type.

"HpMad" with the ""s.

Will also work in some other input forms. Press MODE
CAS and type "HpMad" with the double quotes at Indep var.

2,5,8 control game.

Hi,
if you've some experience with this game
(a not particularly nice one if compared
to my TETRI for the HP48 which I've not
the time to port it to the HP49) please
tell us the following: How to program the
procedure to start it with a single key
click, and how to abort it during its run.

Then use the MINEISBETTER one.

Remember that the "HpMad" tetris is 170 bytes large...

Sorry Wolfang. That's all I know. I haven't even played it.
I just saw it.

You have to loose to end the game
The high score is returned
Since there are no macros in the 49G
you can't taylor the Environments
(STARTEQW exists STARTFILER nope
STARTMATRIX nada STARTED EXITED ok
STARTSTACK EXITSTACK njet
aENTER bENTER yes, with a flag
STARTPLOTTER nein STARTTABLE nej
STARTPASER EXITPARSER dream on)

ACO

this could be changed by having
separate keyassignments for each Environment
Please?

Opinions?

Yes!
It ends and exists only when you (finally) lose !
That's the way it works (in much less than 256 bytes)
