Valentin, I do appreciate your helpfulness. In person it is easy for us to pick up on the speech pattern's someone uses, their expressions and body language to gauge the full meaning of their words. In a forum such as this we have only words; we miss out on all the other communication clues. Those to whom we are communicating in writing my not interpret our words as we intended.

Using reference material is great when are well versed in a subject but need to find some finer detail. If I am well versed in French for example, I can make good use of reference materials such as a dictionary, thesaurus, etc. Not having studied French for 35 years it is more of an effort for me. I can sometimes divine the meaning of a sentence. I can sometimes use Google translate, but sometimes there is no substitute for asking a native speaker. Someone fluent in the language can quickly find a reference to correct grammar usage, or a colloquial expression that a student will struggle with.

In fact, your link to the HP-41C manual and my looking up the same information in the HP-41CX manuals led me to a bit of information that related to something I heard at one of the HHC presentations that was tangentially related.
