From: CT_Surveyor on 8 Mar 2010 00:56 Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I can't seem to find the answer in the user manuals: On an HP-50g, can Libraries that exist only on the SD card (Port 3) be ATTACHed, or do they have to be in Port 0, 1 or 2? The LIB command seems to show only what's in Port 0-2, so I guess the answer is probably "No", but maybe someone knows a trick or workaround? I have an almost empty 2 gig SD card, and only 300K free in Port 2, so it would sure be nice to run my libraries off the SD card if possible. Thanks!

The library itself must be in one of ports 0,1,or 2, but its programs can import stuff from the SD card in the same way that standard non-library programs can. So you could perhaps call a large SD-stored program from a small library program as a subroutine.

If you want an example the HLP49 library works that way ... ! ! ! Daniel
