Hmmm.. Then, I'd rather seting the angle mode with something like:

An Aplet doesn't work like the 49/48 when it comes to flag settings, they are linked to an applet, so each applet have their own flags and settings.

If you do what you suggest, it will only switch the settings temporarily, if you ever suspend your aplet to run a calculation in the HOME screen for example, your settings will be lost.

When you change your flag, you need to change the settings as you describe (playing with the system flags) or using the supported entry SetSysAngle but you also need to set it up in your aplet structure. If you check the aplet skeleton, you'll see that one of the variable of the aplets containt the current mode. Store 1 for Degree.

The system aplet do it that way:
NULLNAME AngleSto2
::
    CONTEXT@ SWAP SETaplCXT
    DUP SetSysAngle             ( Set Angle System Flag as well )
    Angle@ ?ReDrREPL#
    CONTEXT!
