Ha ha ha! Sorry. But it depends, are you trying on-calc or using your graphlink? If the files ASM then you can't really edit the program on the calculator, because all you'd see is code. But with basic programs, you just go to "edit" under the program menu on the calc. If the files in BASIC and you don't see it under the edit menu. Then open the file under graphlink and you'll see a checkbox that says, "Protected", uncheck the box and save the file, then send it to your calc. I hope that made sence.

Waittt! mAKE sure the files un-archived before you edit it, or else it gives you an error message.

What allynfolksjr says is right, but if you have an 83+, then just load CalcSys onto it, found at detachedsolutions.com.
The application contains instructions for unlocking a prog, so don't ask me for them.

Lol, i was gonna mention calcsys, but i don't like people knowing that you can unlock progs on your calc. (Without mirageOS, that is)

so what? be realistic man. if a person is persistent enough he'll unlock your program anyway, if they're just a newb, they'll probably won't bother. if people want to steal your code, they will if they can. only way to prevent this is not to release your program to the public. i wouldn't take this as such a big deal since you don't sell your programs and therefore people don't actually steal them. just mention in your program's readme that those who modify your code don't forget to add your name to program's credit list. i think that all you can do, unless you want to sue them or something :).

I know that, duh. But if people look at hicktest they might find a way to win (if there is a way, i forgot if a progtrammed that in :-) but i don't care if people look at it once they beat it.
