Yeah, i know what you mean runner, i couldn't get much better numbers than those.  I might just end up storing the whole thing to one big buffer :/

Although not a terribly large saving, you may as well use what I've been working on and save yourself about 170 bytes.

I attatched my solution (602 bytes) to my original post saying that I had completed it.

wouldn't that be three screens?
Nah, he just zoomed the image so it's easier to look at on forums. On calc it will be 96x64. :P

Also Nice runer! Not a huge size gain but still a size gain. How fast does it decompress? In addition to that you're close to 666 posts. :P

Okay, so I have a few questions.  The Y and the A in your menu text (maybe the X too?) are not the same as the TIOS font, but everything else is.  Can we change it?  Also, can we use inline asm?
I think I can shrink this sucker down to size ;)

I noticed that about the font too, but I didn't change it because that would be cheating. :P
Also, I purposely avoided inline because that would be cheating too. :P
(Unless Builderboy specifies otherwise)

In which case the size to beat is 586 bytes. ;)
(Remarks distinguishing the two versions I attached can be found on the bottom of the first page)

EDIT: I just realized that I had previously added comments with the size of the code, but I hadn't updated it. So ignore all the comments that declare a size of 608 bytes.

Okay, with no reliable way of transferring files from my calc, I can't really do this effectively.  Nevermind, then :(
