It means you have six lists, named from l1 to l6 (the calc should not support caps).

Isn't it the other way around? Calcs support all uppercase and don't support lowercase unless you have MirageOS, OmniCalc, or some other lowercase enabler.

Kate-words of advice:

don't delete 'em, you need 'em later for graphing points.

yeah D, its the other way around with lists. most calc only support caps, some support lower case too.
L1-L6 are default lists that are on your calc and can be easily recalled with already defined keys. other lists can be named but you'll have to find then in the gui or run a command to see/use them. these lists don't really take up much room, so don't bother deleting them. also, like someone mentioned above these lists will make it easier for you to graph since they can be recalled by one key.

You couldn't if you wanted to. The variable names on the 83 are hardcoded into the OS. The best you can do is clear out the values in them to save RAM.

Well, on the 68k Platforms the names are stored in lowercase but just displayed (under certain circumstances) as uppercase so unless your talking about z80 specifics, your wrong, sorry.

I believe he is talking about the 83...
