However, I can not seem to be able to get "NXEQ" to work as a menu option. I belive this is related to the fact that NXEQ is part of the solver program and not a general program. Also, I cannot seem to make more that one custom menu per EQ. I have my EQ as a list of equations, and everything will work fine if there is ONE custom menu list at the end of EQ. However, if I try to put more that one custom menu _anywhere_ in the EQ list, I get an error message. #2: What is the easies way to subtract an atom from a list. i.e. { FOO BAR NETA } - { NETA } ------------------ = { FOO BAR} Or even better: { FOO BAR NETA } - { NETA FOO } ------------------ = { BAR } I realize I could write a subroutine to do this, but it seems like such a common thing to do that it must already be built in somewhere. If the answers to either of these questions lies in the manual, please direct me, I have been trying to figure out both of these things for a while.
