1) (to Demian) A disassembler, such as Voyager, will take a filtered
version of an HP 48SX program (or copy of ROM) and disassemble either the
threaded instruction stream (unthread) or disassemble the machine code
(unassemble).  If this does mean muc to you, then you probably do not
want to get Voyager.  It is intended for people how like to take things
apart.  Or for people who want to find out how HP did it, so they can to
it (faster than userlang).

2) I started to upload Voyager V1.0-5 to HPBBS and found that it would
take over 90 minutes (at 2400 baud) to transmit (PKZIP'ed and XMODEM'ed).
That was just TOO long (I can't imagine that anyone would upload that
much!)  So, unless there is a major out cry (and hostages are taken), I
will not post Voyager V1.0-5 (you will have to wait for it to get though
the EduCALC pipe-line.)  OK?
