RE: [50g] Purge all single letter variables A through Z?

2008-08-10 by Jeremy Hawdon

Hi Arthur,

 

The following program should do the job, provided that your directory list
is a path for the final directory.

 

\<< WHILE DUP SIZE

      REPEAT DUP HEAD EVAL TAIL 65 90

             FOR k CHR  "'" + OBJ\--> PURGE

             NEXT

     END DROP

\>>

 

Checksum is #5C70h. Store in home under a suitable name.

 

Regards, Jeremy

Subject: [50g] Purge all single letter variables A through Z?

 

Is there a quick and easy way to purge these variables? The Filer is
easy but it's not quick to use. My goal is to purge A - Z just prior
to a new calculation. Perhaps a short program? (Hit VAR, then the
appropriate soft menu key, then do the calculation.) Here's my scenario: 
Mode is set to HEADER: 2. The 2nd line displays {HOME TEST}, where
TEST is a subdirectory of HOME. I want to purge A - Z in both TEST and
HOME by hitting VAR and the appropriate soft menu key. My programming
skills are at the novice level, limited to simple conversions like
Centigrade to Fahrenheit.

Thanks, Arthur
