In article <1976@charon.cwi.nl> Jurjen Bos posted an article written by Eric
Toonen on the empty name on HP48's.  He described how to create one, and some
files that are in the directory {HOME ''}.  At the end he included a string
to pump thru Bill Wickes' ASC\-> program to get the empty name.  There was a
typo in this string!

The INCORECT string is "82E2000E147"  please change this to:

the  CORECT  string of "84E2000E147"  NB that only one digit was wrong.

If you try to use the wrong string, the error is such that ASC\-> *is* able
to give you an "INVALID STRING" error, rather than crash the 48.

L8r ffolks!
