You may be interested in the PHYCONST.Z program on Wayne Scott's mail server.
This program allows you to create menus (similar to the normal HP48 menus, only
it is 6 keys across and 5 ROWS down) which contain constants or units.  You 
simply press the key which corresponds to the label on the display and the
program puts whatever you stored into the program onto the stack.  Not only can
it handle constants and units, but I've found it can even execute programs.
Further, I've found that I could modify the program to handle 8 row menus (I
might try to get 9 rows, the total numbeer of rows on the keyboard, but it would
probably be more difficult).
