(Sharp PC-1211) Not really. Pretty different beasts.
And what's this I II III business? What do those
do?
Three sets of soft key definitions.

Well I have a TRS-80 pocket computer manual and it says the PRINT will
always wait for input. Use the PAUSE statement instead (same syntax) and
the display will pause fr 0.85 seconds before automatically continuing.
Also, how do I get out of DEGree mode into RADians and
GRADians?
Use the RADIAN, DEGREE or GRAD statements to set the appropriate mode.

Can't find any mention of these. What is the context?

I used to have a PC-4, so I'm accustomed to that
annoying PRO/RUN thing about
switching modes, but there's some differences. First is, how do I get the
program to continue after a PRINT? This code:
10 PRINT "Q";: GOTO 10
My Sharp's at home (along with the manuals). I seem to recall that you have
to use a different character after the Print than the ';' you are using. If
this doesn't get you going, yell and I'll try to remember to look it up....
Interestingly I played with the Sharp yesterday for the first time in a
long while and realized that it must still be on the original batteries.
I've had it since I purchased it new 15 odd years ago - amazing....
