200e

Jon,

thanks for your detailed explanation!

You confirm my "fear" that it is very hard (or at least limiting) to get a "completely storable modular system" even with the 200e!

We know that well known people like Richard Lainhart (and probably Alessandro Cortini) work live with a 200e, question was how they handle the challenge to be able to quickly (!) recall different "complete patches".
