I guess it's a matter of figuring out how (and fixing CRC?)

By the way, after a 2.15 ROM update, does ON+D continue
to function exactly as before in real calc?
(Emu48 and Debug4x only go dead now,
ignoring even subsequent ON+C and requiring full "reset calc").

Thanks, as always, for your various replies and info.

Yes. On ARM based machines those were never running the saturn code,
but rather jump into arm version of essentially the same thing.

If you are curious, you can disassemble the ROM address starting at
#0019Bh; there is a jump to #001BEh, which contains a 5-nibble opcode
for handling the ON+D and related key sequences.

Thanks for very interesting info.
