Wow, interesting. It fails so epically ;D
Does this occur in all OS versions? I've gotten it to work on OS 2.43 and on a friend's 83+ (I don't know what OS version)

Well, it works on the flash debugger as well as 2.53. I would say that's a pretty good indication that it is Ti's mistake from the beginning and is on all OS's.

That's what I like about having an open, easily reviewable piece of software. Bugs can be found much more quickly.
And yeah, I guess so. Who has an 82/83 to test this on?

Yes, it also crashes on a TI-83 using Wabbitemu.

When I get a chance, I'll try it on my TI-82 and possibly my TI-81.

Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

The TI-81 has no two-byte tokens, so that wouldn't work ;D
We'll wait for the TI-82 test results, though. :)

OK. I didn't know since I haven't messed with it too much.

What would be a fast way to trigger this glitch on a TI-82? The TI-82 doesn't support strings.

Note: I am unable to reproduce something similar on my TI-85. I guess it might just support 1 byte chars or just 2 (when detokenized)

EDIT: I just reproduced that bug on my old TI-83+ now. It is running OS 1.19.

EDIT: It happens regardless of the size of the string. It can also be recreated in the Y= menu, the EQU solver (found in the MATH menu), in the list editor (when selecting a list and entering a formula there) and the home screen. Bug summed up at http://ourl.ca/3687, last bug listed in the first post there, which I just edited.

Send a large program to your calc that fills up almost all your memory and then type the characters in manually?
