FINDMESS

by Don Steffen
This is the 2nd of 2 programs on Hidemess and Findmess progroms for the TI 99 4/A computer.. Click below to read the other program
The Findmess program accepts up to 120 characters and stores them in Characters 128 to 143. Since the TI 99 4/A keeps those character patterns between programs, as long as it is powered up, they can be found by this program. See below on the information on how to hide items on the other program so that you can use this program.
