Lines: 16 I am very interested in writing programs for the CHIP48 interpreter that has been posted, but I have a slight problem. I want to write them in hex strings and then use ASC-> to convert them into objects that the CHIP48 interpreter will recognize. I understand how to start the hex string (i.e. "C2A20XXXXX where XXXXX is the length), and I know how to generate the CHIP48 instructions, but I do not know how to compute the checksum to place at the end of the string. Can anyone help me with this!! _____ _______ ********************************* HP48SX / ___ \ /__ (\ * * .----------. || || /( _) z) \ * Paul Vervalin * |]]]]]]].-.| ||___|| |.
