A new ROM update. Like always, use the link in the first post of this thread.

A few annoyances were eliminated in this release, and quite a few new features were introduced:

* Submenus of the main menu can now be open in the "other" menu by using a shift. This allows to make good use of the 2 menu system.

shouldn't that be limited to one specific shift key? Perhaps the other shift can sometime be utilized for something else

Quote:* Stack menu was added

I would expect the stack menu to be invoked with an interactive stack. Up arrow?

Quote:* Binary operations menu was added
* VERSION command was added
* Some refinements in the alarms
* The calculator now stays in the editor if turned off while editing text.
* Hiding the second menu is now permanent across OFF, error messages and command help, so the calculator can actually be used with a "classic" single menu, although you lose the status area annunciators and features like autocomplete.
* "Back" menu key is at UNDO (M). Use it with right-shift for the first menu, and right-shift-hold for the second menu. There's a 10 level menu UNDO.

"Back" couldn't that be also used in the variables menu to go one level up? In parallel to the already implemented LS UP.
