I ran some basic progs i made with mirage *:"TEXT)* in the beginning, i found that the inputs did not work %100 and such, i exited mirage to set my programs back on it archive, i noticed the the y4 and some other ones had an extreme size: ranging between 22,000-25,000 bytes.
i went into the y= area where u put in some data to graph and looked at y4 and it had a bunch of code in it like the kind u see when u unlock an asm prog and look at it with the built in editor. Anyway i pressed "clear" button and then it started to clear than the screen color inverted with the text described above and frooze.
i took out the batts, and put them back in and it reset ram, of cource i lost all data that was on my RAM and lost a program i've been working on for about a month, on and off... I also noticed some programs that were VERY large in size stored on the calc after running mirage (i check cuz it doesn't always put the progs back on archive) Very stange things have occured on my calc when using mirage... |

Interesting. I need to figure out how that works and tell some people to do it.  (I'm just kidding, by the way.) |

i had that too, the y4 had ahuge size. It also happened to pic1.
And of course, Mirage cleared my Ram al the time. With Mario 1.2 loaded, it would clear my RAM every hour (really true!)
I think that's just because it's ASM. The reason that the Y4 is so huge because it has like a million numbers in it, saw it in the y= screen. |

If you reset the RAM, or, (I'm not sure about this latter), defaults, the large programs should disappear, even if they were archived.
I'd say the best thing to do with mirage is to Not Use It For Basic Programs. They will mess up, especially if you use Input, Prompt, or Goto. |

| sometimes my programs have sin-1( instead of : in an output command. Does someone know why, and how to stop this, cuz it's very annoying to change that all the time. |
