Hi everyone
I want to create a custom menu on my HP50g.
Reading the electronic user's guide I see that to create a (permanent)
custom menu that assigns the functions EXP, LN, GAMMA and ! to the
keys F1, F2, F3 and F4 respectively, one enters:
{EXP LN GAMMA !} ENTER MENU
However a little later in the guide it states that the general form of
the list above is:
{=93label1=94, function1, ls1, rs1}, {=93label2=94, function2, ls2, rs2},=
=85}
where "label1" is the name of the soft menu key, funtion1 is the
function that will be carried out when the key is pressed and ls1 and
rs1 are the functions that will be carried out when the key is left-
and right-shifted, respectively.
(is there a typo in the guide and should there be an extra curly
bracket at the beginning?)
My take on this is that entering for example:
{{"expf" EXP LN ! }} ENTER MENU
would create a custom menu where the label for key F1 is "expf" and
unshifted, left-shifted and right-shifted operations of F1 would carry
out the functions EXP, LN, and !, respectively.
I've tried this on a HP50g emulator. The unshifted operation works as
expected (the exponential function) but left- and right-shifting does
nothing.
