I don't understand the HP-50g, what am I missing?

Once you get over a few hurdles, things will make sense and you'll be able to just treat it as a super-48.

As I’m fond of the 48GX UI, I like your perspective on the 50g as a “super-48” and would like configure a 50g to behave, as much as possible, like a “super-48.”

I think I can figure out many of the flag settings and key assignments that would move the 50g UI a little in the direction of the 48GX UI, but wonder if someone has already tried this or compiled a list of changes to make 50g behavior, as much as possible within the limitations of different key layout and menu options, more closely mimic the 48GX. I didn’t find an example in the forum archives, but may have missed it. If not, I’ll give it a try and report on the results. Or do you think a keyboard overlay would be needed to really make much difference?

Thanks!
