Maybe that's because you didn't worry about making clear what you were
talking about--just dropped undefined neologisms like "inflector."

Am I correct in saying that you have found a way to look at what is stored
in memory, as a loaded program? Is this different from Xy4's ability to
view, edit, and save loaded programs?

Anyway, there are only a couple of people on this list (notably Carl
Distefano and Robert Holmgren) who are technical enough to speak to your point.

Merry Christmas,
