All of which are BASIC commands, as well as GTS (go to subroutine, probably like GOSUB).
In addition, it would’ve lent itself well to loading programs from cassette (see TI-99 or TRS-80 of the era).
I have a 1984 Sharp PC-1246 handheld which is surprisingly programmable despite being about the size of a modern smartphone, an actual calculator form factor, and, you know, from 1984.
It looks to me to have:
- NEW
- GTO (GOTO)
- LST (LIST)
- END
- RUN
- FOR
- NXT (NEXT)
- LOD (LOAD)
- STP (STOP)
- RTN (RETURN)
