Full-Screen Edit Without Losing Your Preferred Header Size

If you prefer normally having a HEADER size of 2 or 1, but would like to use the entire screen while editing programs, the Advanced User's Reference Manual suggests the following. Just store these two programs in the HOME directory, and your 50g will automatically flip into full-screen mode while editing, and automatically restore the previous header size when editing is done. You must use the program names shown below or it won't work. The names mean "Start Editor" and "Exit Editor".

This whole idea can be done in User RPL, but that causes a delay both before and after editing which is annoying. The System RPL programs below run so fast you'll forget they're there.

'STARTED'
BYTES: 25.0 #31DAh
Code:
::
  GetHeader
  '
  ID 'Hdr
  StoHiddenVar
  BINT0
  SetHeader
:

'EXITED'
BYTES: 22.5 #2BF4h
Code:
::
  '
  ID 'Hdr
  RclHiddenVar
  DROP
  SetHeader
;

This leaves a variable called 'Hdr in your hidden directory, but it only uses 12.5 bytes total. Purging it can be added to the EXITED program, but that slows it down a tad, which detracts from the experience.
