Check Apps displays the Spaces Free screen, which displays
application memory available on the calculator. Four spaces in
the calculators memory are reserved for applications. The
TIN73 comes with the CBLàCBR application already loaded.
Since applications take up no RAM memory, selecting
- Ÿ 4:Delete 1:All doesnt delete any applications. Instead,
delete an application using - Ÿ 4:Delete 8: Apps.
The Spaces Free screen displays how many spaces are free as
well as the names of all loaded applications and the spaces
each one occupies. (Any application can occupy anywhere
from one to four spaces depending upon its size.)
To leave the Spaces Free screen and return to the Home screen,
press either - l or :.
For more information on running applications on the TIN73,
see Chapter 13: Communication Link and the CBLàCBR
Application.
