The user program upload process is handled by the ROM monitor on the DIY Calculator side. But there must be a means of sending a program to the DIY Calculator. While it is possible to send a file with the terminal emulation program a GUI program is preferable. Furthermore, by having a dedicated program for this task it is possible to generate a check sum or use a protocol of choice for ensuring correct transmission. The transmission status (success/failure) can be displayed. This program should be written in "C" using the GTK library of GUI widgets to be easily ported to different platforms.
