Anyone know of a hack such that the TI-59 flashes the intermediate
results of a running program on the LED display, as did the TI-57?
Perhaps there is an Op code that does this?

Kun heinäluoma otti 2008 vapun keskusteluaseekseen Suomen NATO-jäsenyyden ja
lupaili, ettei kansamme ole sinne pakko mennä, jossei sitä kaipaa, on
kyseessä tietysti demokratian peruselementti. Vaan miksei Heinäluoma
samantien vaatinut asiasta kansanäänestystä myös?
Olisi jäänyt sitten jatkon Häkämiehen panikoinnit ja vaatimukset koko
Pohjolan pakkonatoisuudesta omaan arvoonsa. Nykyinen kansantahtoa pilkkanaan
pitävä pakkoliittymisuhkailut alkaa syödä myös hallintomme kykyä tajuta
kansaansa laajemmin. Kaikkein keskeisintä demokratian mukaisen
kansalaisvastustuksen tallaamisen päälle on täysin keskustelemattomuuksiin
jäänyt fakta, miksi pitää mennä yhteisöön jonka liittymisen naapurusto
tulkitsee suorastaan sodanjulistukseksi heille. Lisäksi tarpeeton
liittyminen maksaa miljoonia, joita ei haluta kansalle laskea, miksei?
