If you plugged in the Mini Memory cartridge, it added a POKE command to TI BASIC. There was a common cartridge, "Disk Manager 2", which gave you common DOS-like disk management utilities. The lowercase font really was absurd. A few programs redefined them with much more pleasant fonts. The "Adventure" module for running the Scott Adams text adventures comes to mind.

The Editor/Assembler program gave you a better font as well as 40 colummns instead of the normal 32.
