I don't understand what is so hard about getting all the special TI
characters. I did it without a memory dump and without SKA's program.
Here's how:
Basic program:
10 open "charas.asc" for output as #1
20 for x = 1 to 255
30 print #1,"Disp"+chr$(34)+chr$(x)+chr$(34)
40 next x
50 close #1

now load your favorite text editor and take out all the characters that
cause problems. you can fill these in later with Disk Eedit or something.
Some I suggest: #26 -- EOF -- Store character. you can't have this in
programs anyway, except to store.
#13, a return. this is a significant character in the TI-85 so add this in
later.
Now fix up the .ASC file so it looks like an .ASC file.
\START\
\COMMENT=\
etc.
now convert it to an .85p or .82p or .81p

there. all done.
now transfer it to the calculator and use UNDEL and Delc to transfer it to
other programs.
