I still suspect something else than the TI OS could have caused it. Can you recreate this bug after a fresh RAM reset? Even the most stable ASM programs could be enough to trigger weird things. Even CODEX did.

Well, I only tried it once on calculator, but on WabbitEmu, I was able to recreate it a lot of times, even with ram clears, all memory clear, etc.
Right after all memory clear (in wabbitemu):
RAM:24317
After you get memory error from too big of Ans variable:
RAM:16129
After making program named 'A' and recalling the answer 1 time:
RAM:7925
After recalling the answer 2nd time, weird stuff happens.

funny life mathematics
:
1. ROMANCE MATHEMATICS
Smart man + smart woman = romance
Smart man + dumb woman = affair
Dumb man + smart woman = marriage
Dumb man + dumb woman = pregnancy
2. OFFICE ARITHMETIC
Smart boss + smart employee = profit
Smart boss + dumb employee = production
Dumb boss + smart employee = promotion
Dumb boss + dumb employee = overtime
3. SHOPPING MATH
A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need.
4. GENERAL EQUATIONS & STATISTICS
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
5. HAPPINESS
To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.
To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.
6. LONGEVITY
Married men live longer than single men do, but married men are a lot more willing to die.
7. PROPENSITY TO CHANGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, and she does.
8. DISCUSSION TECHNIQUE
A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.
Girls = Time * Money (Girls are a combination of time and money)
Time = Money (Time is money)
Girls = Money squared (So, girls are money squared)
Money = sqrt(Evil) (Money is also the root of all evil)
Girls = sqrt(Evil) squared (So, girls are the root of all evil squared)
Girls = Evil (Thus, girls are evil)
*Girls=Evil credit goes to Compynerd255*

Hmm, I tried this, but I just got the dotted cursor. I have TI-84+SE, with OS 2.53 MP.
I tried using a normal letter for a string, instead of the serifed F in the screenshot. I wonder if that makes a difference?

what I don't understand is how you got that F to show up. I don't get that in the window vars

Uhhh... Another glitch I have to fix. I just did it on my calc. Recall it once, you get about 2000 F's, recall it twice you get about 500 F's then unlimited random charaters.
I'll look into it.
Oh, and 100% guarantee it has nothing to do with extra ram pages as those aren't used for this kind of thing.
Edit #1:
It only works with two byte characters. The OS checks to see if the total ram used is equal to the total ram available. If you count by twos however, 999!=1000, 1001!=1000, the OS misses it's chance and guess what happens.
Edit #2:
Found it. I'm not going to go through the trouble of fixing it because 1) I'm lazy, and 2) I'm not sure this has ever caused someone an accidental ram clear. But for future reference here is the problem:
In bcall($4942), (editTail) is checked with (editBtm) to see if they are equal, and if they're not, it figures that there is enough space to put another character. But if it is putting a two byte character, it goes past the end of the editBuffer and copies into oblivion. The way to fix it would be to either stop it once it goes over, or check for two byte characters and handle them accordingly.
For all those who couldn't get the recall glitch, delete your second recall. Add in one more byte, pressing enter will work. And then recall it again.

But cool
