In RPN mode, if the variable does not exist yet:

(1) Put the desired value on the stack.
(2) Type the desired name on the command line without quotes.
(3) Press Enter twice to create the variable.
(4) Press Shift parentheses to put two single quotes on the command line.
(5) Press Shift Paste (to fetch your variable name)
(6) Press Enter twice to put it on the stack.
(7) Press Sto.

The above looks long but it's fast when you get used to doing it.

In RPN mode, after the variable exists, use the Vars User menu to retype the variable name.
