u Program and Text File Conversion Rules
Conversion of program and text files is subject to the following rules.
• Certain characters in the program name are automatically replaced and the result is
assigned as the file name whenever you convert a program to a text file. When you convert
from a text file to a program, the program name is assigned by converting in the opposite
direction.
Program Name Characters Text File Name Characters
r _r_

_t_
Leading/trailing spaces _s_
" _q_
Leading/trailing dots _p_
× _x_
÷ _d_
+ _+_
− _-_
• The following header information is added to the text file when converting from a program to
a text file.
'Program Mode: RUN (RUN Mode program)
'Program Mode: BASE (BASE Mode program)
• Converting a text file that contains the above header information to a program converts to a
program of the mode specified in the header information. The header information line text is
not included in the converted program.
• Converting a program to a text file causes all CASIO scientific function calculator-specific
commands in the program to be replaced by special corresponding character strings.
Conversely, converting from a text file to a program converts the special character strings
back to their corresponding commands. For information about program commands and their
corresponding special character strings, see “CASIO Scientific Function Calculator Special
Commands ⇔ Text Conversion Table” (page 8-60).
