Im trying to display a percent sign, and both calcsys and xxedit show that the hax code for the percent sign is 25, but when i do Disp 25>Char it displays a greater than/equal sign instead ???

The percent symbol's character value is 25 in hexadecimal, but you're inputting it as a decimal value. So instead of displaying character 25h, it's really displaying character 17h, which is the less than or equal to symbol on the calculator. You want to use Disp ᴇ25►Dec. The before the number signifies that it's a hexadecimal value.

Are you making it show the percent sign as a token, or as an ASCII character on calcsys?  Most ASCII characters have different token equates, disincluding numbers and letters.
