35s program checksums

I keep all my general-purpose subroutines in one "program" (Z002, Z074, Z188, etc.), and when I changed one of them, the following ones all got renumbered, and so the programs using them also changed. That explains the changing checksums. It's actually quite a neat system I think.

Thank you for your candor, and for some hints moving forward. I am going to be diving into this a bit in a week or two when I can get my hands on a second unit. Without the second unit for control|compare|contrast it will not be possible to speculate further. I truly suspect that for *everyone* the bug is simply not understanding how the checksums are calculated and what the rules are. Once we iron that out and publish it on the site somewhere folks can have a better confidence in the length checksum system. I too agree its a pretty neat system.

Thanks, good to meet you!
