( ) and show (

None

) at the bottom of the display, even though a numerical

code exists for all of them. Numerical characters show the corresponding
number at the bottom of the display.

Letters show the code

α (i.e., ~) followed by the corresponding letter, for

example, when you highlight M, you will see

αM displayed at the lower left

side of the screen, indicating the use of

~m. On the other hand, m shows

the keystroke combination

α M, or ~„m.


Greek characters, such as

σ, will show the code α

S

, or

~‚s. Some

characters, like

ρ, do not have a keystroke sequence associated with them.

Therefore, the only way to obtain such characters is through the character list
by highlighting the desired character and pressing

@ECHO1@ or @ECHO@.


Use

@ECHO1@ to copy one character to the stack and return immediately to

normal calculator display. Use

@ECHO@ to copy a series of characters to the

stack. To return to normal calculator display use

$.


See Appendix D for more details on the use of special characters. Also,
Appendix G shows shortcuts for producing special characters.
