Using ROM 1.14-7, has anyone else noticed that the Filer remembers the
last menu you were on when closed and then opens to that one the next
time? A really nice feature!

How come ?
I'm really the first to be surprised... Which is even more surprising don't
you think ?

What are you doing exactly ?
This calculator is so great ! it implements features by itself :)

Oh come on, don't be so childish. Can't you refrain yourself from that kind
of remarks please !?

Now, the question ->

in `sad` output (ROM 1.16) I've found following:

ASSEMBLE
1510B 92AFF REL(5) LibEnd001
15110 00 CON(2) #0
15112 L_15112
15112 100 CON(3) #1
15115 00000 CON(5) 0
1511A CF1C0 REL(5) LibMsg001
1511F 00000 CON(5) 0
15124 E7FFF REL(5) LibCfg001

It seems strange to me that relative pointer to End of Library is pointing
backwards. I think that, in that shuffling of code around, somebody forgot
to update Label name.

Maybe it's a bug. :)

Childish? What's childish about it? Someone discovered a nice feature
that appears to be accidental. Rather than take credit for it, JYA
admitted that it was an unintended consequence, and did so with a bit of
self-deprecating humor. Personally, I thought it was a rather clever
remark.

Hello.

It seems that you didn't understand my point/joke... Never mind.

For the other question/remark.
Checksum for internal libraries are not checked. Therefore the value of the
size of the library is useless.
Also, you should know that label declaration in libraries is automatic and
done by the makerom program.

Ok, point taken. I must be getting old.

ROM libraries were never checked for CRC, not even in S series.

Yes, I _do_ know that, all I've asked is that label be moved forwards
so it makes sense.
Please leave those ROM lib headers in ROM, I like them a lot.

OK, ok, I'm nitpicking again ...

I just very much like tidyness and simplicity of the code and it makes
me nervous when I have to write workarounds for various quirks
(original `sad` choked on backward length pointer).

My apologies to all for the confusion. I'm using ROM 1.16 now, but
this might have been my mistake. I use VIEW a lot and remembered
having to go to the third menu when not in a port to get to that
command. Then, after closing the Filer and then reentering to look at
a variable in a port with VIEW, VIEW was present on the first menu. Of
course, this was because it replaces EDIT for port menus, but I may
have carelessly mistaken that I was still on the third menu. Sorry for
the confusion. (It's funny, but I could have sworn that it was the
other way in 1.14-7.) Oh, well, the Filer is such a great feature,
maybe I was just looking for a chance to give it praise :)
