I agree, I'm a little lost but it was interesting. I did not use BasicOS for this though. The program shown here would probably crash the calc. It's just the assembled version of every hex value, which I'm sad to say I typed out by hand since I couldn't get Eclipse to work at the time I made this. I just wanted to see the connection between hex and actual machine code. So yes, it does contain the newline token.

How exactly is converting hex tokens related to this thread?

Did you use BasicOS with this? You can convert hex token 00-FF no sweat. You can stick it in a string and simply recalling it in a program. Now, some bytes or tokens in your program are not accessible to the user, even through an assembly program. The hex token D6 is a new line token. In BasicOS, if you convert the hex token AF to characters or tokens, you get a "?", which is the new line token. That's just an example. Some tokens can make your calculator run as you would not expect it to, and possibly crash because you tried to access those tokens. BasicOS is the program when you want to get those tokens, like the checkered box token, or the GarbageCollect command. As a warning, take caution when trying to recall some dangerous tokens.

If you want to convert some hex values to tokens, use the steps below.

Start BasicOS.
In the main menu, go to more features.
Press 5 three times.
Input any hex value to convert to tokens.
Press on to stop the program, store Ans to a string. Open or create new program and recall the string. Done!

Seems to be reasonable as 267 bytes is not really big.

It's only 267 bytes, and I've written basic programs on the calculator bigger than that. So I guess it's just that the OS is buggy. One more reason to learn how to write my own OS/patch 2.55MP.

Sir, as far as I'm concerned, this not make sense as as I think that the program is simply to big that it probably does this automatically but I may be wrong since I haven't done any other language than TI-BASIC in a week.

All I am doing here is pushing the arrow keys and the program is having bytes deleted from it. What possible explanation is there for this? Have you seen this in a basic or unassembled hex program?
