Are you going to make the label menu support up to 13 characters, as the new Axe version allows it ?

I don't know if it is a good idea or a bad one, since there won't be a lot of label columns on the screen if you support 13 chars, and I don't know if people will really use more than 5 chars ???
In fact, I think I'll only use 13 characters in my label if zStart supports it :P

Definitely no. This would totally break the way that I store them and I would only be able to support like 51 labels. (As opposed to 109).

You can build a statue out of either 1'x1' blocks or 12'x12' blocks. The 1'x1' blocks will take a lot longer, but the final product is worth it.

Ok :)
But if I use a label with 13 characters, it will still appear in the menu, just only with its 5 first letters, right ?
Because I plan to use 5 chars in my main labels (to keep them compatible with the menu, and I don't need more anyway) but maybe more in some subroutines that need explicit names.

This sounds pretty cool! Maybe you could also do stuff like set program on ram clear or at startup if you know what i mean :P

zStart can already do this ???
Or maybe I misunderstood the question ?

Well, when I use zStart 1.3.010 (the one linked in your sig), this problem doesn't exist. But with 1.3.010b (the one four posts above), any time a BASIC program calls input or prompt, the calc will freeze and I have to pull a battery. <_<
Edit : It happens exactly when I press enter to confirm my input.
Just bumpin' this report as it seems like no one saw it.

I saw it, but I don't update zStart that often (I also didn't want to make a second sub-update). My only reply could have possibly been like "OK" or something. And since Hayleia's post started a new page, I didn't see it again to quote you.

But have no fear, every time I update zStart, I begin at the previous update and fix every problem that someone mentions.

Could there be a shortcut to force an APD? Press [ON] and [APPS] and an APD occurs.
EDIT: Turns out, this feature already exists! D'oh!

would adding something like that be too much effort/slow down hooks a lot?

It already does it with ON+Stats iirc.

So it does.
Ok, then.

Could there be any way to speed up the program menu?

Maybe it would be possible somehow similar as omnicalc speeds up the apps menu?

I could probably do it. The only downside is that it has to reside in extra ram (which means it might get corrupted.) And it would probably break my current hooks that work in the program menu.

well, this is by far the most useful app I've ever used! finally i'm not wasting time putting every setting back in place when I want to go RAM clear, I'm actually encouraging myself to do that more often now :P

one thing though, I can't seem to get custom fonts working with programs? if I go make a new custom font in zstart it'll find that, but it won't find any font existing as a program, archived or not.
I also setup symgraph as a part of startup for zStart, but after that, the run from home option seems to be failing ._.?

I came across this "bug" multiple times now:
When you turn off the calculator while you're editing an archived program (the copy of one), and zStart wants to store the edited version and GarbageCollect appears, the LCD turns off and and it doesn't react on any key presses (calc behaves like turned off, but it isn't) before you can do a GarbageCollect. You need to remove the batteries and lose the current progress which is kinda annoying :/
Is there someway you can prevent the calc (or its peripherals) from turning off when the program isn't saved yet?
