Subject: Re: Thermometer MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Man, wish I had more time to do these fun ones . This isn't a hard one, I can point you at where to go for this one. Maybe can find someone's existing code etc. PICList would be a good place to join and ask for help on this - I can program a PIC or Atmel part for you, also have a local engineer friend who's looking for work and could do this in a hurry. It'd be good to know what your power source for this is - AC power? Battery pack? Right off the LX? What I'd suggest are either just straight thermistors, or I2C thermometer sensor IC's, several manufacturers make them, and a Pic chip to run your choice of these. You might have to run them off a battery, might be able to run them off the HP200LX's serial port - I'd have to look more, it's late & I'm tired. You can connect up to 8 National LM75's to one I2C bus, for example, and a $10 PIC16F84 chip can run about 4 I2C busses, i.e. 36 thermometers. Or could use a Scenix or Atmel or other microcontroller. Maxim has the MAX6575 and 6576 IIRC? 1-wire and duty cycle outputs, not RS-232 though, so a Pic etc. would again be necessary. Oh, also the Dallas 1-wire interface is good, perhaps pricey though, maybe not. They have a weather station at http://www.ibutton.com/weather/index.html, $79 for an eval kit, that should just plug into your serial cable off the 200LX and WORK, except you get to port ftp://ftp.dalsemi.com/pub/auto_id/public/mlpb103.zip to the LX - do-able, probably. The Dallas SMBus parts could work (off a Pic.) Also the DS1921 "thermocron" may do you or may not.

Down to the prompt. If you kill he program in a WA, really only the program is killed and you get the DOS prompt. One disadvantage: Also TSRs are killed which were loaded in only this WA. > Okey I see.

If you lose the overview about what's open or what's swapped out by MaxDOS, you could run into trouble.

No matter what WA is open and if the Palmtop is switched in, an appointment or other alarm will come up in every case. You even can choose if SC shall switch to the old WA after the alarm (that comes up in the SysMgr WA), or if it shall stay in the SysMgr WA after the alarm.

This is also the last borland compiler that runs on the palmtop. However, it's a little slow on the palmtop. Not impossibly slow but slower than I like. BCINST lets you enter whatever segment alignment you choose. The default is 512. The IDE also allows this option. TC++ 1.0, which runs faster on the palmtop, doesn't offer this option. I remember that the HP development kit was designed for Microsoft C 6.0, which uses link 5.1. The default segment alignment is paragraph alignment for this linker. I have used the Microsoft linker with Borland compilers and the tlink with Microsoft compilers and never had a problem as long as the linker wasn't much older than the compiler. My suggestion would be to get a copy of MSC 6.0 and use the startup files and other files provided by HP for exm development.

Sorry I did not reply earlier, but I am cleaning up backlogs... Yes, there is a way. I do it quite a bit in my Orders database to prepare invoices etc. I have clips in the database which contain the fields to be replaced. Some of the clips are fairly long letters. Then I mark the records in the database, and select the clip I need, and presto! the stuff is created and placed into the clipboard. Open Memo and paste. There is a limitation of the clipboard, so for example I cannot generate huge sets. However, you can by pass this by creating a report. Menu, Print, then select say ALL RECORDS, in the next box tab to Custom and select the clip you want, then print to a file. In this way I could print a report of all orders which matched some criterion, for example, by selecting a subset of the database which matched the creterion I needed, then print the report to a file. The file would then contain the same clip over and over again, but the merged values were taken from the records and placed in the location where you defined the field in the clip. Works very well, albeit slow. In some cases I took the database to the desktop and ran the whole thing there to get some decent speed. The merge works much like in Word or WP, but the document is only ASCII, because you have to type it into the CLIP definition. I have not tried to grab a fancy document with formatting and pasting into the clip definition. Hope this helps. Avi The above is my own private opinion.

Yes, the subsets can be defined on the desktop. While there are five different subsets in the data file definition, I think one of them is reserved for the ALL subset - so you really only get four distinct ones. Also, it appears that a single entry can only belong in one subset. For example, if your Doctor was also in your Square Dancing class, you couldn't have his entry defined as DOCTORS and SQUAREDANCING subsets. You'd have to pick one or the other. I don't know for sure that the ALL subset has to be there. I'll probably try some experiments to see what happens when you load five true subsets, and no ALL.

I think I would hesitate to try the 56k modem unless I went to a DS. When I use the modem with the GSM phone and it goes now to 9600, then it gets painful if I have not cleared up the inbox on the POP server. In europe where you pay for even local calls to the ISP the reduced connect time of a fast modem is very useful.

Yes: Use Andreas' PE.EXE! That's the perfect solution, I think! It lets you open as much files as you want (or is there a limit - I don't know) and you can cut/copy/paste etc. between them. With F7 you can switch from file to file, and there's even a shortcut that shows you a menu of open files where you can choose to which one you want to jump next.

The last two accessed are easily swapped by the F8 key. Any file can be swapped to by "Home" and a number, 1 for the first, 0 for the tenth. And it does remember your position. A URL for getting it by FTP (I think) was posted here some time last year. It uses many of the same editing keys as WP5.1. An older version was called PE.EXE (Program Editor) if that shows up in a search instead of ED.EXE. Not an .exm, but a very good multi-purpose editor.

I don't uuse buddy, so I din't know for sure, but usually it works this way: If oyu want a TSR to be available in all sessions you have to load it _before_ SC. If you want to use a TSR only in specific sessions you have to include it in the startup bat file for these session(s). But note that there may be problems with TSRs loaded before SC which are activated or controlled by hotkeys. If one hotkey of such a TSR is the same as a hotkey of SC, SC is called by that hotkey! > Is there a way to have Buddy act one way in one session and another way in > one of the other sessions Ýwhile accurately tracking battery use the whole > while¨?

A very good question. If you delete transactions or accounts, they are merely marked as deleted and left untouched in the .pdt file. There does not seem to be any pack function that will flush all deleted pieces out of the file. The solution I have come up with is to export all transactions, accounts, categories and groups to .qif files, then create a new .pdt file and import everything back into the new file. This should not change the balances, as you can set them by manually creating them, rather than using the export/import procedure. Note: the import process is very slow. Depending on the trx count, you may wish to do it on a desktop. As a matter of routine, I use a slightly different tack on a monthly basis, capturing all transactions on my lx, exporting each account to a .qif file, downloading those files to my desktop, importing to QWin (I am using version 1 of Q for Windows). I can either import into a brand new account, or use an existing account and import only new transactions. Generally I use the former. There are always categories I have omitted on the desktop but QW warns me. All of this effort pays off because I get the reporting functionality of QW and the convenience of PocketQ.

It's getting excellent reviews as a Palm clone ++. It has a free slot for future improvements such as GPS, voice notes, MP3 players, pager etc.etc. It's like a "future - proof" palm. Was developed/commercialised by the inventor of the Palm apparently. Demand is such that they can't fullfill orders. Price is excellent and much lower than the Palm equivalent. the DeLuxe 8Mb version is $249. As a power Todo user on the 200LX (I've customised a master todo in database by category heading with a macro to pull items over to today's todo) I was impressed by the "to do" function on the Visor. You could have multiple todo list according to category. I liked that! But with the Palm and Visor, I see major deficiencies:- No keyboard (although perhaps users find tapping the on - screen keyboard with the pen OK, don't know) No spreadsheet (Obviously), no ability to run DOS programmes. I run Info Select for DOS on my 200LX and wouldn't be without it! But, I notice on www.miclog.com that Micro Logic has a version of Info Select for the Palm out now. Don't think I'll be swayed to change just now but I liked the unit. Any comments from LX users who've switched to Palms or Visors and come back or stayed? One bad feature - the backlight was awful. Finally, full marks to Curtis Cameron for his Outlook convertor. It'll probably extend the life of my LX.

And most of the stuff I do is read only. > No spreadsheet There are several; Look for Quicksheet? > (Obviously), no ability to run DOS programmes. I find I don't miss this as much as I thought - there are so many programs out there for the Palm. And most are affordable.

As soon as there is a Springboard module that will hold a compact flash card I may have to decide which to keep, since I can't afford 2 palmtops on a gadget budget.

My office switched to Outlook Exchange mail from CC:mail. I used the cc:mail built into the 200lx all the time. I have a database of products that I keep inventory in the field. When I swap a unit the serial number has to be emailed back to the office so the database there can reflect the change. I had a macro that I just flagged the items hit the macro which generated the cc:email automatically. Then on the next online run, they got the update. Now, with exchange, I cannot do that. I cannot even make a macro to make post/lx send a pop3 email, which would work because they have an internet gateway address. So I asked for one of the Palm Pilot Pros the office had lying around to see if I could us it for this purpose. The lack of the keyboard is a real pain. Something that I could do without thinking in ten seconds on the 200lx now takes a few minutes of concentration (on making the letters right). Very irritating.

Yes, late Sunday night I came into the hospital with some abdominal pain and ended up with surgery for appendicitis, and then the surgery was botched and I ended up almost bleeding to death internally before they realized it and rushed me back in for another surgery. But thanks to the miracle of modern medicine and modern palmtopping, I'm recovering and able to comunicate from my hospital bed.

I already wrote a program, but this one only works in combination with another (commercial) program 'Camit' by Boehringer Mannheim. Does anyone of you fellow diabetics use Camit? (I don't know if it's only sold in Germany or Europe or if it's also available overseas). Camit works AFAIK with all Accutrend blood glucose sensors that store data. You can attach the sensor to the serial port and import the stored data into Camit. My program 'simulates' a sensor. You can enter the blood glucose and several other things (like insuline, sports, meals etc.) and the program stores the information in a file that can be read by Camit. So you can use this program instead of taking the huge Accutrend DM sensor with you. You only need a small sensor and the LX. :-) Very handy for me! If anyone's interested, please let me know. But don't expect too much, since I wrote the program in C and I'm a total C beginner! ;-) I surely will keep further development of the program, but right now, my examination time begins and I don't have much time for such things. Probably I'll NOT write a program that does the entire data management, since I don't need it (I have Camit. That one does all data management I need). Sorry. Too much trouble for me.

It takes a little time to figure it all out, but it is worth the effort. Besides having multiple files open, you can also split the screen and view 2 files at once. One problem: it comes configured with a maximum buffer size of 32K, which means, if you use the default, all 6 files have to fit in 32K. You can change this to perhaps up to 256K, depending on how much memory you have under sysmgr.

"The base computer offered is a 500-megahertz HP Pavilion with 64 megabytes of RAM, a 4.3 gigabyte hard disk, CD-ROM, 15-inch monitor, speakers and a 56K modem. The base printer is a color DeskJet 610. Workers can upgrade both the PC and printer for an undisclosed price. Notebook computers are not included in the deal. Hewlett-Packard officials declined to put a dollar value on the PC and printer. The company's Web site had similar base PCs and printers for about $1,000. PeoplePC Inc. of San Francisco will manage the program for Ford. According to PeoplePC Chairman Nick Grouf, Ford is subsidizing the $5-a-month Internet fee, which represents a substantial discount to the $24.95 PeoplePC typically charges to other customers as part of a package when they buy less-sophisticated PCs and no printer. Ford, PeoplePC and Hewlett-Packard executives would not disclose financial terms of the deal. After signing on, the Internet connection will bring users to a customized screen that will offer links to other products and discounts, allowing Ford to benefit from advertising revenues. Even so, the program will not be supported exclusively by ads. ``We're not going to flood the screen with advertising,'' said Ford Chief Information Officer James Yost. Executives said the arrangement would work like this -- employees will get the PCs for three years, as well as three-year parts and labor warranties. If they leave the company, they would have to give the computers back, though Ford may come up with a payment plan allowing them to keep the machines. Details have yet to be worked out. Workers at Ford's Visteon parts unit could also participate even after the subsidiary is spun off this year. Workers at Ford's Mazda Motor Corp. (7261.T) Japanese affiliate are not eligible. Although Ford will have e-mail addresses for all of its employees -- Nasser currently communicates with Ford's white-collar employees via a weekly e-mail newsletter -- the company will not be able to track the Internet activity of its workers, Yost said. Still, the company will control what employees first see when they log on to the Internet. But that doesn't bother Brenda Johnson, a member of UAW Local 900 and worker at the Michigan Truck plant in Wayne, Mich. Johnson, who does not currently own a PC, said she especially welcomed the opportunity to get a computer she can upgrade. ``I'm very excited by it,'' she said.

There are some add on programs that can remove hard returns. Strip, I use it for removing extended characters in documents. QEdit (TSR Jr.) is strictly a text editor so uses standard fonts. It would be nice to install a larger font. There are configuration tools with it but you do not need them to use the program. Anything fancy I use a full desktop and a word processor.

Another one to look at, although it's much more expensive, is the TRGPro, which is a Palm with flash memory (more than Palm's and user available) and also a slot for a compact flash card.

It's certainly much easier to carry. Writing on it is harder and slower than on the 200lx. But when I was working my needs simple, a few phone numbers and a few appointments, and I did switch to the Palm. It was always in my pocket. But the 200lx was always nearby. While there is no keyboard, I do have a small keyboard for it called the GoType. I think it was $79. I've hardly ever used it. I don't need it at home and I didn't carry it with me. But if I had had to do some serious typing it would have been fine for that. Now that I'm retired I find the LX more useful and certainly more fun.

I used it when I was hospitaliezed last year. DON'T! Hospitals frown on people using cell phones for a good reason... The sensitive electronics in EEG/EKG machines have a very hard time dealing with serious EMF like what comes off a cell phone. Some heart monitors used in emergency rooms and in cardiac wards can also be deafened by the EMF from a cell phone. Some new systems have filters that try to deal with the problem, but many hospitals have to use the older equipment they already have and ask cell-phone users to cooperate. If you happen to be cell-phone web-surfin' (or just chatting with someone) at the same time that someone nearby on a monitor had a heart-attack or a seizure, you could be responsible for someone not getting attention when they BADLY need it... When I enter a hospital, I turn OFF my cell phone. Use the bedside data-port or a payphone.... It's not as "sexy", but it's a lot more considerate of other patients. ...

Yes, and no... The handspring like palm has a Keep It Simple mentality, handspring modules automaticaly install/uninstall their drivers and additional software when inserted, so the Palm OS doesnt require any overhead for management of the port. If it was an open CF slot then it would require the PalmOS to have builtin support for it, which would complicate things. Im sure at some point their will be a springboard card that has a CF slot (I think the MP3 player does this) but by keeping their springboard slot simple they keep the palmOS from getting bloated with the need for device drivers an detection of modems, flash cards, network cards etc. If you like the Palm, but want a CF solution you might want to check out the TRG palm clone... its basically an 8mb Palm IIIx with the IR port shifted over to the side and a CF slot added... Currently they have drivers for ATA flash and a few CF modems... Its even a Type II card slot which works with the IBM microdrive which is the largest Palm data solution ive seen yet. (340mb). Unlike M$ and their WinCE mentality Palm goes out of their way to keep the OS small, and overhead low. Overall its been a good strategy for them a it keeps their OS easy to develop for, and maintains a high level of compatibility in their hardware. It also lets their licensees make themselves distinctive by offering different 'enhancements' to the palm OS... CF support from TRG, Springboard from Handspring, and soon Sony Memory Stick support in Sony's upcoming device, and im sure it won't end there.

You'd probably need some kind of ASIC to do the conversion. The reason CardBus cards don't work in PCMCIA slots is because cardbus took those pins and defined a multiplexed address and data scheme (PCI). PCMCIA 2.1 defines separate address and data (meaning less range to both). rick ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 4 Feb 2000 23:24:17 +0100 Reply-To: oehlrich@erlangen.com Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Dr. Carl-Werner Oehlrich" Subject: FS: Need bootom shell for HP200LX MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I need the bottom plastic shell of hp200LX maybee from a broken HP200LX but I do not have enough money to let my LX repair at thaddeus.

I'm thinking of trying out an Omnibook 800, in order to do some of the more demanding development stuff I'd like to try. I can't afford an OB800 out of pocket right now, though, so I might be interested in selling the LX to finance one. The system: --200LX. It's a 2MB unit, and has no hinge crack that I can see. --Newton keyboard. It has the original zippered case and the keyboard cable is uncut; I've made a little adaptor (included) that plugs into the keyboard cable at one end and the LX-to-serial cable at the other. --Sparcom Drive100 external (serial) 3.5" floppy drive. This thing cost me quite a bit, but I don't use it nearly as much as I thought I would. It's slow, and the batteries don't hold a charge that well, so it's pretty much confined to the desktop. It is handy, though, for transferring files to a desktop machine that doesn't have an open serial port for the link cable. Original docs, connector cable, and AC adaptor included. --Original LX user's guide and quick start guide, LX-to-serial cable, and Intellisync software. --All of the software that I use is either freeware or beta stuff that can't be released, so I will probably just initialize the RAM and you can start from a clean slate. I'd like to see $600 out of this kit so that I can comfortably get into an Omnibook, but as I've never seen this combo for sale before I may be off on my price. In other words, make me your best offer and I might just go for it. Let me know if you have any questions at all. By the way, I don't intend to leave the palmtop community for good, as I think the 200LX is still unbeatable as a rugged, efficient, ultraportable computing tool. I'll be back before too long!

Not is our area. My wife works at Ford Motor Headquarters in Dearborn Michigan, and they announced at 9:30 A yesterday that all employees were going to receive a HP 500 Mhz desktop, complete with HP printer, and for $5.00 a month, internet access. She already has her own personal HP 620LX, which she loves, but heard nothing about receiving a Jornada. We of course are very greatful for the gift. It was stated they had this huge amount left over in their training budget, so they decided to give all employees a free home computer. I am a contract employee for G.M., and there is a lot of rumors here that Ford had another motive for giving the computers away, such as making it easier to contact employees at home, a big tax write off, and cheap training to sharpen employees computer skills, but I think everyone here at G.M. is just jealous. For example G.M. announced that their bonus this year was like $700, and Ford announced a $8000.00 bonus this year, which I might add is just for the average employee, and the higher up you are, the more you may receive, like my wife, which got a huge bonus again this year! ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 5 Feb 2000 08:45:28 -0600 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Barry Marks Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Barry Marks Subject: Re: HPLX-L Digest - 3 Feb 2000 to 4 Feb 2000 - Special issue (#2000-53) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit >Someone here mentioned a mini keyboard which covers the >graphity area of the palm pilot. Anyone knows a URL? http://www.landware.com/products/gotype/gotypeps.html The keyboard needs no power since it's just a bunch of switches. It's small and not too hard to carry with you but it's not portable in the way the Palm or the 200lx is portable. It's pretty easy to type on even though it's a little smaller than full size. They've done a pretty fair job of making keys do the things you'd normally do with the stylus but you can't really get rid of the styles. You need it to make menu selections unless their newer drivers have dealt with this. it was most complained about feature so they might have fixed it. I haven't ugraded my drivers in about a year. It does require a driver in the form of a hack on the Palm and I suggest also getting HackMaster if you use hacks. It works fine without it but you'll be glad if you get it. If you don't know the Palm don't be thrown by the word "hack". They're kind of like a TSR on a dos computer except that they're supported by in the OS.

It's simply a text item (to do category) and a note. An example could look something like this where ">" in the database NOTE below is used to distinguish text associated with its parent to do item:- Administration (then in a note f3) Sort out storage in office Check invoices cleared Budget (then in a note f3) Do year 2000 budget > Need to get list of next year's objectives approved first Car (then in note f3) Arrange car service > Check calendar for best day Make a list of faults DIY Miscellaneous Personal Project spending Saturn Project Travel Venus project etc etc In this way, the project heading categorises each list of to do's and sorts them alphabetically I created a macro for sending a database note to do item and its associated note from the database into the today's to do (and back if I change my mind). The macro for moving to do items from the database note to today's to do works like this. You highlight all the text in the note (typically a top line to do item and it's associated note). It takes the text from database note into an appointment book note, the top line of the note only is then cut and pasted into the to do field. This gives a to today do item with its note. If today's to do gets too crowded, another fn key is set up to send it back to the database. BTW, I like to use the built - in diary as my primary to do management centre because of it's features e.g. its ability to set recurring items etc. etc. To my mind, the benefits of this method are as follows:- You have a truly separate "to do today" and master list. I like to just focus in any one day what I have to do on that day (like the system in a paper planner). This way, your daily to do list doesn't get drowned by a list of all master items. You get Faster loading and saving of the appointment book. You can add new to do headings (like categories) in database on the fly and they sort automatically.

PE! :-) I don't know HOW to remove hard returns, but I would be very surprised if it was impossible. All other things PE does very well. One great advantage is, that is looks (and acts) like the built-in apps, so you can use the ZOOM-kay to switch between fonts and use the F-keys for lots of other nice features.

Is the 7110 > better than the S25 when it comes to rf noise? It works very well.. Martin, thank you for the list of "palmtop friendly mobiles". I didn't receive your mail with the RING/7110 results. But let me take the opportunity to put some things into order: The Nokia phones seem to work with unmodified HP200LX. You will still have RF noise, but below the critical number of "serial frame errors", so that a connection can be made, but instead of 9600, you will probably see something more like 4800 Baud. With Siemens phones, you usually cannot connect, unless you are close to the transmitter/receiver base station. The number of serial frame errors is just too high. I can only speculate, why this difference is between the Nokia and Siemens mobiles: The Nokia mobiles seem to be better shielded and they seem to use a stronger IR signal. The Nokia IR signal has a range of about 1m, whereas the maximum S25 range is 20-30 cm, indeed resulting in a lower power consumption of the S25. You may have IrDA always ON with the S25 without additional power consumption. This is very handy, because you don't have to manipulate the S25, if you want to go online. Just put it besides the palmtop. But as I said, the Siemens phones generally only work, if you modify the hardware of your palmtop. The operation is comparable to the speed upgrade. But it only works for about 50% of all palmtops, and there is no way to tell, if your palmtop will work or not, unless you tried it. There is still research going on to find an upgrade which will work with every palmtop, but until now, everything failed. There were rumors about palmtops which need no modification to work with the S25, but it turned out to be not true. If you check your palmtop with my test program RING.COM, and you call it from within SysMgr, make sure, you have setup "serial power on" in the DOS box, otherwise it will not work, fooling you to think, your palmtop shows no RF noise. Please also note, that you can always transfer SMS over IrDA. This is no indication for a RF immunity, because the SMS are transferred while the mobile is offline, but the RF noise only occurs while the mobile is online. Summary: The Nokia mobiles seem to be a better choice at the moment, but they are also more expensive. If you want to buy a S25, you should check, if your palmtop can be modified to become RF immune. Look at http://daniel.hplx.net/hplxir/index.html for a detailed explanation of how this is done. But also with a Nokia phone you will profit of this upgrade, because it will remove the "serial frame errors", resulting in a higher transfer rate.

BC++ 2.0 is the last version of Borland C++ that will work on the 200lx. Beginning with 3.0 they required a 386 or better cpu. The 80186 in the 200lx will substitute for a 286 as long as protected mode isn't used, but it can't fill in for a 386 with it's memory management and in BC++ 3.0 wants protected mode anyway. TC++ 1.0 and BC++ 2.0 are the only C++ compilers I know of that will work on the 200lx. The earlier C (not ++) compilers will work fine and they're available for free download from Borland now.

Since I learned this, I often use the word wind pumps in English texts, mainly in order to invoke native English speakers changing that into windmills. One person, however, suggested 'usually called blowers in technical English'. He must have understood our sailors need wind! Like this person, average Europeans would possibly just not understand the term wind pump for wind-driven water pump. I am convinced many Dutch would be drown had they relied on English!

Do you know why the key's not working any more? Maybe there's just a little bit of dust under the key. Try to blow it away with compressed air!

You can use Stefan Peichl's LXPRO. The key 5 sets the time out. If you set it to 'OFF', the palmtop will not turn off. But note that the palmtop also won't fall into the light sleep mode, so the batteries won't last long.

For example, when you open most ASCII files there is a carriage return at the end of each line and paragraphs will not "flow" properly between the margins. If you remove the carriage returns, consecutive lines are converted to one long paragraph which fits smoothly between the margins. Returns are not removed if: 1 There are two returns in a row (like a typewriter, two returns usually separate paragraphs) 2 The next line starts with a space (this indention is usually a deliberate separation from the previous paragraph) 3 The next line starts with a tab (same reason as space) I find this VERY useful, especially for formatting e-mail messages for storage or pasting into other messages anyone wants a copy?

But the point of programming on a palmtop is to program wherever you happen to be. At least as I see it. I use Microsoft's Symdeb for debugging either c or asm. It and it's accompanying Mapsym both work with Borland's mapfile and line number information to give you symbolic and limited source level debugging. It can also handle CGA graphics switches, which is what I always use. I don't see much advantage in using the LX only graphics modes since they're non-standard and the functions in rom are too slow. I've written most of my own functions and I've added some that I didn't write myself such as bezier lines. Symdeb is an upgraded version of Dos's debug that used to come with Masm in the days before Codeview. I've tried a lot of other debuggers but this is the only source/symbolic one that works reliably. Some of the others I've tried are all versions of TD, several versions of Codeview, D86, Power C Trace, the debugger whose name I can't think of that comes with registered copies of PCC, TC and QuickC ide debuggers and a several others I can't think of right now. They all have problems either with locking up or an inabilty to handle graphics. D86 is fine if you stay out of graphics modes but locks up when you go into CGA modes. If you've found something I've missed I'd love to know. I haven't been programming on the palmtop much lately but I will again.

You need a copy of the LX ref. There is (or was) a copy available online, but I've forgotten the address. Can look it up and post it later.

They were meant to be industrial equipment controllers, and had 16+ switches on the front panel so they could be loaded with a small program to boot up. They were very rugged and ran a real-time OS called RTE.

I seem to remember there is a dialog editor and a font editor. THere are also sample applications that test/show each area of functionality of PAL. E.g.

The proper place to check on viruses and hoaxes is http://www.datafellows.com and click on Virus and Security Information, then on Hoax Warnings. The direct URL: http://www.datafellows.com/hoaxes ... The BEST recommendation is to NOT forward the warning - it is doing NO ONE any favor. Spammers occasionally float such warnings on purpose because people who do not better tend to send the warning on the their entire address book, and invariably the spammer will get a new batch of addresses! Besides, panic has worked against any cleanup efforts. And hoax perpetrators have a grand time seeing their hoax take up 5-10% of the total email traffic on the internet because people simply do know better... So here is the text of hoax warning from Datafellows (who make F-Prot, one of the best Virus fighters around!) The URL for this hoax is http://www.datafellows.com/hoaxes/wobbhoax.htm and your particular hoax version, the cat colonic, is mentioned specifically. This was dated on Datafellows' page as 2000.01.26 ...

A virus's most agressive impact would be loss of data and if they are very good, perhaps a re-write of some CMOS firmware. Now a CMOS virus is pretty rare since it is specific to the maker of the firmware itself. Even a virus of this nature does not irrevocably destroy a machine, it at most requires a new CMOS chip, but let's face it....loss of data (and spread of a virus) are the real dangers of a virus. So even though the OS is in ROM, the LX's are just as prone to getting viruses (that are just as destructive as almost any other machine. Granted, there is never a need to re-install the OS, except to copy some files from the D: drive, but an OS install is pretty simple for DOS anyway. I'd say the main factor in the LX's favor is that there are very few individuals who would bother to write a virus for a machine written in DOS, at least not anymore (Some of the earliest PC viruses were written as DOS Batch files) By the way, someone earlier posted that viruses only happen in windows (or something like that). This is not true. Viruses can be written for any operating system, even mainframe operating systems, or lowly DOS operating systems. They are most prevalent in Windows becuase something like 80% of all PC's run windows. Most virus writers are doing so to cause a major impact on as many systems as possible....so the more systems they can infect the more likely they will target a given OS. --- David Ness wrote: > Probably untrue, but because the OS is in ROM, the > consequences of > any virus on the 200 would be quite limited (i.e. > loss of data is > a distinct possibility, but not `destruction' of the > machine...) > > "Dean L." wrote: > > > > Don't think you can... only a Window system will > bite a virus.. > > 73 Dean W5GXL > > > > On Wed, 9 Feb 2000 12:49:44 -0600, you wrote: > > > > >Curious... > > >Has anyone here ever gotten a virus on their > 200LX? > > > > > ** HPLX-L LIST Info at > http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml > > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I have ABC/LX and find it is very useful because one can create an optimum battery charging profile. I would recommend getting using NiMH batteries in conjunction with ABC/LX. It is a killer combination. If you decide to charge these batteries outside the LX, don't use a fast charger. It wears out the batteries quicker.

(It's getting a little less now, so maybe time to swap sets & recondition this pair). The maximum voltage during charging is pretty much irrelevant. The most important parameter is stall time (maybe about 5 hours - I think that was recommended on Mack's page - and it's what I use). If you use a standalone charger, try to find one that has an intelligent cycle - preferably one can detect the delta-V at the end of the cycle.

Unfortunately, Avi is right and you aren't. There are definitely viruses out there which do not require an executable file in an attachment to become active. If you don't believe, search the Bugtraq archives. The good news is that the HP 200 LX is unaffected by this type of virus because you must run mail clients such as Outlook Express for the virus to be able to come alive.

Mail programs should not execute anything without the users permission. This is one of the many reasons why there are such heavy security restrictions on Java applets (no file IO on clients machine, etc). Granted java is not a mail program, but becuase it executes on the clients machine the creators gave it very limited access on the client-side machine. Interesting to know that there are mail programs that are inadvertantly allowing this behavior. I will keep this in mind and thanks for the info.

MIME is a popular format for e-mail attachments.

This could occur just from the user viewing the message and then (as I recall) going to the File menu. As far as I know, no actual viruses ever took advantage of this bug, and most e-mail clients and e-mail servers now handle MIME buffer overflows properly.

Several people may have already mentioned that the charge/discharge characteristics for NiMH differ from NiCad, and I've seen quite a variance even between NiMH types (tried about 4-6 brands). Most of my earlier NiMH's took a long time to charge (they typically took upwards of 12-16 hours, including a LONG stall time of about 3-4 hours) and gave me between 7-10 hours of ABC/LX measured usage time. Note that ABC/LX usage measurements will vary greatly depending on how you use the LX. Sitting with the LX in continuous use (ie, writing a term paper) will result in longer measured usage times than if the LX were powered on and off throughout the day. This is obviously because the LX is using battery life even while powered off (and is not measured by ABC/LX during those times). An LX with fully charged cells that sits on the shelf for a few weeks will show drained batteries even tho ABC/LX shows zero usage time. My recent experience is relative to my style of usage and the Olympus cells I have now. I charge them always in the LX ... that's the reason I got them (and ABC/LX) to minimize the attention I need to give my LX. Also puts less stress on the battery cover. I set ABC/LX to start charging at 2.35v (I use Mack's killmsg program to cut down the battery warnings), but often manually initiate charging at just under 2.40v because my LX is plugged in at my desk at work every day anyway for 9 hours, and I hate being caught with an empty tank. I set ABC/LX to stop charging after a stall time of 6 hours, or a peak voltage of 2.90v. I know that Mack and others have mentioned that this appears to be on the low side, but I still get up to 12 hours of usage time (best time was 13 hrs when I was using it continuously for classes, studying and writing papers) despite the low peak voltage, which the LX usually reaches after about 8 hours. I've rarely had the Olympus cells hit the 6 hr stall time ceiling, and the charge curve is usually continously upward till it reaches 2.90v. I could probably eke out some more usage time on the cells by upping the peak voltage, but the current usage times are good (for me) and the advantage of not having the LX tied up in a 16 hour charge is a big plus to me. Plus a longer charge time generates a lot of heat and that was a concern. Since class ended, I'm typically only charging about once every 1.5-2 weeks (between 7-11 hrs ABC/LX usage time). During class, I'm sure it was at least once a week, with usage times typically at 11 hrs. After a year, I'm still on the first set of cells (two in a package of four ... I gave Al Kind my other two). Charge characteristics haven't changed in all that time. By comparison, the other NiMH cells I've tried seemed to "run down" in the sense that longer times were required to reach peak (or stall limit). But to be fair, those brands I always charged aggressively, usually pushing past a 5 hour stall time to reach the peak voltage (which got harder to reach with time).

What they do is rely on the same "buffer overflow" that so many other attacks rely on. You send a Subject line which is longer than the recipient's mail program is designed to handle, it misses it and loads the whole subject into memory, running past the end of the allotted space and overwriting other data *or code*. Toward the end of the subject, the perp has embedded a binary instruction sequence, which is then executed.

If you don't believe, search the > Bugtraq archives. to do anything on a computer requires executing a series of instructions. This series of instructions is called a program, a macro, a script, or some other name that often indicates something about the environment the series of instructions expect or need to function effectively. A virus 'does' something on a computer therefore it executes a series of instructions, i.e. it is a program. it executes. Let's not get too picky about terminology when it doesn't matter! there are several ways to 'execute' a program on a computer. All require some environment that will 'launch' the program and execute the series of instructions. One of the best ways to reduce the risk of an unwanted virus is to avoid environments that are sloppy in their security. Java in a Browser environment is very secure this way. MS Office in Windows is very sloppy in its default configuration. Most of the highly publicized virus programs lately have been macros (a convenience program run in an application environment) that expect to find a Microsoft Office environment and depend upon a convenient autostart feature. This feature can make Email appear seamless with other Office document types when used as intended. If this autostart feature is turned off, then the attachment has to be manually separated from the email and then it has to be 'launched' - in Windows you do this by 'opening' the detached file. Keep in mind that Browsers also run programs to help display web sites or to handle forms and such things. These are usually reasonably secure as the only machine access the Browsers usually let them have is to a cookies file. There are some simple steps that will help you avoid unwanted intervention in your computer: (1) don't run Windows or Office, (2) turn off automatic attachment handling features, (3) trash messages from unknown sources, (4) make sure you have good backups so you can recover if something does happen, (5) be very suspicious of any messages that are from unfamiliar sources or have attachments. If you are really paranoid, do all your messaging and downloading and testing on a machine that is isolated and can be easily re-initialized from scratch. But I think people worry too much about this. A bit of reasonable prudence is all I have found necessary. -- Bryan ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 10 Feb 2000 11:16:12 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "Striegel, Alan" Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Striegel, Alan" Subject: Re: 200LX/keyboard/floppy/cables/manuals for sale MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" The price seems a bit high for the palmtop.

What they do is rely on the same "buffer overflow" that so I think that is correct too. The known bugs were plugged, but not the unknown ones :) Not knowing them won't stop these viruses from their pernicious activity :) . No real reason to get into panics but one cannot sleep on the watch, either. I agree that the likelihood of being attacked in my own mail system (mostly Post/LX) is rather slim to none. The point of the message Questor put in was that no virus can attack by merely opening the email. I posted about the one I knew. You added another. I believe there was an implication in Ulrich Boche's post that there is another "flavor" yet. > many other attacks rely on.

Thanks Jon for the edification. I am not sure I feel better knowing more about all this :) but it is interesting at least. I think you'd agree that common sense behaviour helps stem most of the problems in a practical sense. If one open one's shirt and scribbles in large letters on one's chest - HIT ME, VIRUS - I WANT TO BE HIT! - then such a request might be answered. So, in ANY email system, even ours, don't assume anything. Assume that attachments may contain som undesirable payload. Sure the architecture in the palmtop makes it unlikely, but maybe someone (even a reader here) is now "inspired" to do the "deed" and will create a palmtop virus. So without panic and ridiculousness, just be careful, don't assume the world is rosy, work on it, and watch what you are doing. Check carefully on email you do not know the author, set your emails systems to not automatically open everything and play all the music, animated gifs, etc. Watch for "html attachments" containing Javascript or Java. basically, educate yourself and enjoy life without too much paranoia. :-) ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 10 Feb 2000 15:16:52 -0700 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "Batson, Dale N" Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Batson, Dale N" Subject: Re: FS: HP 200LX 2mb w/con. pack MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Sorry, folks--this is sold.

It also observes that ABC/LX is a program, and measures things when it is active, i.e. when the cpu is running the program. The depletion you note does not see to activate the cpu, so no program is running, no ABC/LX and hence no measurements.

What about jacking the top number from 2.90 to 2.95V? See if you can then get a stall.

Once the stall is achieved, the battery is really full and more current will just become mostly to heat. I agree with you that maybe you could get a bit more time from the batteries, but it might be measured in (few) minutes, not hours.

The Panasonic NiMH databook shows charge curves for different rates and temperatures. At low rates (still higher then in the 200LX) they appear dead flat for about 1/3 or more of the charge cycle. Another factor is the LX ADC has only ~27mV resolution, so when the graph shows a stall, the voltage may still be rising. > > I've rarely had the Olympus cells hit the 6 hr stall time ceiling, = and the > > charge curve is usually continously upward till it reaches 2.90v.

The 100lx and 200lx are nearly the same from the user's point of view. They both have the same zoom modes. With the 200lx they added Quicken and Laplink and they spruced up the screens of a few of the built-in apps. They also made a 2 meg and later a 4 meg model available. The color was also changed. As far as I'm aware, those are the only differences. By the way, if you only could get 80x25 or 40x16 and couldn't get 60x18 you're probably in MDA mode instead of CGA text mode. I've run across a couple of programs that leave it that way. You can fix that by typing MODE CO80. That restores the CGA text mode.

I think so. As long as the LX is unplugged and unused, the crystal is still humming to battery power, and that usage is not "captured" by any measuring program. A serious complaintant can test the battery capacity against ABC/LX only by continuously running the batteries to exhaustion, something that's neither easy, safe nor convenient. >What about jacking the top number from 2.90 to 2.95V? See >if you can then get a stall. Supposedly the stall point is >where the battery is filled up to the max, or almost. As I said, the current usage times (1.5-2 weeks between charge) and charging times (about 8 hrs) suits me just fine. Longer charge times usually means having to interrupt the charge, since I'm rarely in one place that long. True, the charging cycle will properly resume when the unit is plugged back in, but I got tired of fussing with the screen contrast whenever it turned out that the cycle was incomplete. Convenience is what it's all about, and I think everyone has a situation that's probably unique to them. People who sleep for 12 hours may be perfectly happy with a 12 hour charge cycle. >I agree with you that maybe you could get a bit more time >from the batteries, but it might be measured in (few) >minutes, not hours. Thanks. Any amount of extra battery life would not compensate for the inconvenience of a longer charge (in my case). ABC/LX is a great product and it admirably fulfills the role for which I bought it. There were a lot of other alternatives, but this one (in concert with the right choice of batteries) made my battery experience one less thing I have to think about. - Longden ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 11 Feb 2000 08:53:09 -0700 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Curtis Brown Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Curtis Brown Organization: OPTIMUS Corporation Subject: Re: pdftotxt for DOS MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Gunnar Thoele wrote: > > > Derek Noonburg, who maintains the xpdf viewer (for X environments) > also releases subcomponents for DOS.

Add to this extensive quoting of the headers, the footers, the signature lines bla bla and you have a little monster on your hands. But it seems to me that it would have to be done on the email server, not in the Palmtop. In the palmtop, the program that does the stripping actually physically has to read all the email message, headers and all, then decide what to strip and strip it, but by then, you already d/l the info and the headers. A real conundrum. I believe GP has a junk filter built-in, eliminating messages that are deemed junk. But still the message is downloaded, then the decision is made that it is junk on the palmtop.That comes close to what you want, no? (Steve, please chime in...) In Post/LX, we provide a filter that will route the junk message to a specific folder which you can then summarily wipe out without reading, if you want. Avi The above is my own private opinion.

Yes, what a silly location for the temp gauge, right near the battery charging circuitry! I think this is one of the few faults in the Palmtop design, no?

The LX screen isn't conducive, IMO, to very nice maps, so I never bother to use the 200LX for such things, preferring my Libretto or my Vaio, both of which have high grade screens that make things easy to follow. Given the good maps that current GPS contain, I find that I never bother to link my GPS to any of my machines anymore, except to upload (routes) and download (waypoints and tracks), as the maps in the GPS itself are easier to glance at and understand. Trying to read a map on an LX in a moving car strikes me as a downright dangerous occupation... I would assume that there is no technical difficulty running a `moving map' program on the 200 if you can find one that only needs an 80185, but I don't think that it is likely to be a very satisfying experience, i.e. I would _never_ bother to do it, even though I have all of the necessary hardware to do so...

I have been using LXGps written by Greg Rhenda found on the Super Site. The maps have to converted from another source for use with this fine program. I use topographic maps in the field to help me fix the position of mineral deposits or fossils. The way I handle the conversion of these maps is time consuming but works. I scan the maps into my laptop computer, adjust the contrast and brightness and convert them to a black and white PCX file. After all that I can place them on a CF card in my laptop. I take the CF card to the palmtop, transfer them to the LXGps directory and calibrate the map. Depending on the type of maps you need, for instance street maps, there is a program known as Street Atlas USA. I imagine there is a simular product available for other countries if that is what your need. These maps are more easily converted. I use the Delorme Tripmate GPS. This is a very funtional device and connects to the 200LX with ease through the serial cable that come with the connectivity kit. Hope this helps. William E.

I am glad to have found this group. I am enjoying the discussions. It was in another news group, comp.sys.palmtops that I met a number of people on the list who provided reassurance and guidance regarding my wish to make a purchase from Thaddeus. To those who did, I give you my thanks. I just bought a 200LX 64mb DS palmtop from Thaddeus and want to say that this is one really nice machine. The extra speed really helps. This is the best new purchase I have made. I should have upgraded my 4mb 200LX years ago. I will have to upgrade it to at least double speed with 8mb sometime in the future. It would be nice to have DS backup to my new DS machine. William E.

I used to have a brother typewriter/printer and it couldn't keep up at 1200 so it used handshaking. You need to identify what lines the printer uses to control data and make sure these are connected to the appropriate lines on the lx. You might want to invest a few dollars in the little gadget that radio shack sells to show the status of various signal lines, it isn't expensive but helps alot in these situations.

To the contrary, I found that the two such programs available have outstanding appearance on the LX when drawing maps. I'm referring to LXGPS and CGAGPS. There certainly is the readability concern, and then at night you would be hard pressed to see it at all. I have an arrangement, though I've never used while driving (really) with two velcro strips on the center of my steering wheel. On the top of my HP, there are two matching strips that I often use with the special palmtop light I bought years back. But besides the hazard of using it while driving, I would be terrified of the cable entanglement possibilities while steering! I have observed that while CGA graphics normally appear "klunky" and unattractive on a desktop monitor, when you run them on the small palmtop screen, they look accetpable. In my mind, what matters for this is the pixel resolution per inch (or cm). Of course, with the smaller screen of the LX you get less information on a screen than with a VGA, for example. But I find it hard to fault the appearance of CGA on this size screen - only the amount of information. -Chris -- ************************************************************************ R.

The problem is, GP (as of V4beta) supports two files that deal with the headers - the filter and routing files. In these you can put the name of any header you wish to act on. I suppose I could pre parse both files. What about an external program, say GPSHRINK, which would process an entire mailbox (or all mailboxes)? It could clean the headers, perform offline compression, possibly delete or only compress message older than a set date? It would then be able to do it during quiet times, such as during recharging.

Yes, GP has a filter file which acts on the headers and can automate whether a message is downloaded, skipped, or deleted. The message isn't read at that point, only the header. It's only read if the filter says it should be downloaded. GP4 (in beta) also supports a routing file. It uses much the same syntax as the filter but acts offline and moves messages to user defined mailboxes. > In Post/LX, we provide a filter that will route the junk > message to a specific folder which you can then summarily > wipe out without reading, if you want. This is much like GP's "routing file". The "filter file" does this prior to downloading the message. (there is a penalty, in that should you download a message the header has to be read a second time - there is no POP command to "skip header, get body") ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 13 Feb 2000 06:11:03 +1100 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Russell Hemery Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Russell Hemery Subject: Budwiser Virus HOAX Comments: To: Nathalie Bugeaud Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" At 07:57 AM 11/02/00 +0100, you wrote: >In the last few days I received 8! virus warnings concerning a "Budwiser" >virus.

Those sections are in the form of: ÝIBMNET¨ POPFirst=1 ÝATT¨ popfirst=1 etc. You will see parameters in thatose sections like SMTP=xxxx.xxxx.xxxx or Login= Password= etc. The syntax is shown above. This parameter tells Post/LX to login to the POP3 server first, and obtain email. This also means Post/LX will send the login and password to identify and authenticate the user. In some cases, this process also lets the user relay email through the SMTP server, since the ISP knows the customer. This is not a guarantee, though. Some ISPs are strict. My own ISP opens a 10 minute window in which I can relay, though in actuality is feels more like 3 minutes.

I am not sure it is a penalty - my junk mail load has stedily increased and my distaste of it is growing. Especially the Opt-ins and the "You receive this email because you signed up. to be removed..." and there is no removal, only a confirmation of your email address and MORE crap. In Post/LX there is a header only download. Combined with the TopLines= parameter, I can d/l headers only and maybe a few of the first lines of the junk. If it is junk, I can delete it DIRECTLY on the SERVER, without haveing to deal with that piece of ... again. I wish my ISPs would employ extensive junkmail filters and just nix the stuff at the server level. The more such schemes proliferate, the less it would be worth sending the junk, because it would simply not arrive. There is plenty of smarts that can be built into email servers to recognize the crap from the good stuff. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 12 Feb 2000 22:48:34 +0000 Reply-To: paulo.custodio@snafu.de Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Paulo =?iso-8859-1?Q?Cust=F3dio?= Subject: Re: PCMCIA cases Comments: To: Bob Christopher MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit > I have been searching around trying to find plastic cases for pcmcia/PC > cards.

Headers are read with the POP3 "TOP" command, which is used to only read the header (and optionally a portion of the message). The message itself (along with the headers) is read with the POP3 "RETR" command. What POP3 needs is a "BODY" command, which could skip the headers you already read with TOP. If you are not filtering or using "headers-only" mode, then GP just does a RETR command and puts the mail in the mailbox. Otherwise, GP does a TOP command to read the header. If a filter rule indicates that the message is one you want to download, GP then does a RETR on the message. If the message was to be deleted, GP does a DELE (no RETR, the message body is never read). If the message was to be skipped, GP just sticks the header in the mailbox (allowing you to RETR or DELE it on a future connection). Raw message headers in GP are self-cleaning, meaning that if GP goes online and finds the message is now gone, the header will be deleted from the mailbox automatically. > The "penalty" is in GP, not Post/LX. In a way I meant that, but it's not entirely true (this is based on my understanding of how Post/LX works from a prior conversation with either Avi or Andreas). AFAIK, POST/LX doesn't use TOP - it always RETR's the message. There is a penalty either way you do it, GP and POST/LX choose to incur the penalty in different ways. GP takes the penalty in seeing the header a second time (once via TOP, then via RETR) if the message ends up getting downloaded. If the message is never read, GP wins by never downloading the message body. AFAIK, Post/LX always downloads the message (RETR). If the message is tossed, Post/LX paid a penalty in downloading the now unread message body. OTOH, if the user really wanted the message then Post/LX wins by avoiding getting the headers via TOP. > "You receive this email because you signed up. to be > removed..." and there is no removal, only a confirmation of > your email address and MORE crap. Yes, very annoying! Naturally, I've never signed up for any of these. The removal is either an email address that bounces, or a stupid web page where they want to show you ads.

If this is true, then GP and Post/LX are doing pretty much the same thing (using TOP and RETR). > I wish my ISPs would employ extensive junkmail filters and > just nix the stuff at the server level. The more such In a way this would be nice, but then they lose the clasification that the telcos share (I forget the name, but basically as long as they ignore all content they can't be held responsible for illegal stuff passing through them. As soon as they start to examine the content of messages and filter them, they lose this protection). This doesn't even get into the case of junkmailers sueing the ISPs for interfering with their "business".. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 12 Feb 2000 19:18:30 -0600 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Les Cohn Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Les Cohn Subject: Re: Calorie Chart with grams of of fat, protein and carbos Comments: To: fjkaufman@WORLDNET.ATT.NET MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit There is a file on S.U.P.E.R. you can download.

I would like for someone else to independently verify this fact before saying that it is a for sure power hog. I am using the command in my AUTOEXEC.BAT as below: mode con: rate=32 delay=1 I also found that using BUDDY adds a small amount of extra current draw during keystrokes as well. I tested it by going into MEMO, holding down a key and using an analog current meter which is located on my DC power supply.

The current on my palmtop goes from about 50ma during keystrokes to 90-100ma during keystrokes. When I run Buddy also it goes up to 110-115ma. If you type alot then I would say that it can affect battery life significantly. I hope it is only my palmtop doing this and I will be testing it on another palmtop hopefully tomorrow.

Users can filter their mail through procmail. The ISP also provides procmail recipes to block many known spam houses. In addition, when a user complains about a spammer, this information is added to a another recipe which can be included automatically in the procmailrc file. If an address gets 10 complaints, it is just blocked period. With all this I still get spam, but it's down to maybe 1 or 2 a week, which I can tolerate.

To those who did, I give you my thanks. I just bought a 200LX 64mb DS palmtop from Thaddeus and want to say that this is one really nice machine. The extra speed really helps. This is the best new purchase I have made. I should have upgraded my 4mb 200LX years ago. I will have to upgrade it to at least double speed with 8mb sometime in the future.

I am running the "generic lime green" 1500 mAh NiMHs from Mouser, and I average around 24 hours of run time. (My longest ever was 25.8 hours.) I got similar times from the DigiKey NiMHs. Of course maybe our machines are different. Mine's a single-speed with 4MB internal and a 24MB CF card always in the slot. I don't discharge. I use Battlog in conjunction with some other utilities, and run the cells down as close as I can get to 2.0V in normal operation. I then run a full charge cycle on them. I've been running the generics since August and have noticed no discernable change in capacity. It may be that you're not fully charging your cells. I had that problem when I first started, and was getting around 10 hours at a time. Once I figured out what I was doing wrong and got everything properly adjusted, the times went way up. Can't comment on whether the battery models you cited are the same. No comment on Morphy One, except that I'm curious to see what they come up with!

The latest on the project is that it seems to be a little behind schedule. I recently mailed Akinobu and he told me that although the prototype should be built soon, the real thing will be later because of a lack of parts. The estimated price of the finished article is around $760 (Yen 80,000), although as of yet no overseas companies have been in touch.

The "&" sign is a marker in the name field to indicate that the following letter is that application's "hotkey". For example, "M&emo" indicates that "e" is the hotkey to load Memo - thus, pressing "e" in Application Manager should run Memo. Hotkeys are underlined in the names under the icons in Application Manager. (By the way, "e" is the hotkey for Memo in my 200LX as well, so that is normal). You can set hotkeys for applications that you add yourself by putting a "&" sign in the name field before the letter that you wish to make the hotkey. Unfortunately, most letters are already taken up by the built-in apps (like Memo), but this can be got around by moving your application's icon *before* those of the built-in apps. > I cannot ammend this, only the comments field? That's normal for the built-in apps. > Is it possible to delete this application and re-instate > it without a hard boot? Nope. It's hard to tell what might have gone wrong without more details - you might want to try deleting the "appmgr.dat" file in C:\_DAT, reboot and see if that helps. Note that you will lose any changes that you have made to your Application Manager if you do this.

I wouldn't care much about additional 10mA power consumption during keypresses in general. However if you do most of your work under SysMgr, it might have an effect on your batteries. (30mA additional consumption) I'd be more concerned about old flash cards. I have a couple of them which came with the backup units I bought. They constantly suck additional 60-80mA, resulting in 100-120mA power consumption on my idle machine. However my one year old 96mb CF Sandisk card needs *NO* additional power when idle. After access it goes to sleep within 1 or 2 seconds. To leave a "bad" flash card all the time in a palmtop needs as much power as leaving a 14400 Megahertz XJ modem card always plugged in. The XJ sucks about 50mA, if the card is configured for I/O. An unconfigured card uses about 140mA. That means, you should always have a driver like CIC100 or LXCIC running, if you keep the modem plugged into the palmtop. > I also found that using BUDDY adds a small amount of extra current > draw during keystrokes as well.

I use LXTCP extensively to up/download email. I find that occaisionally it stalls during downloads, and even if the timeout delay is set very long,it often doesnt recover. This is prevalent especially in the afternoons (here in Israel) when the internet is very busy. The following is based on feeling and not on any specific tests. My "feeling" was that packets of info were getting "lost" and LXTCP was requesing them again and was unable to recover. Did I mention that I am connecting at 19200 on a single speed palmtop? I thought that it would be worthwhile to do 2 experiments together: 1. I would deny the palmtop light sleep during online sessions. No dozing off while at work! Using LXSTAT I disabled light sleep before dialing and reenabled it after hanging up. 2. The DOSPPP package used by LXTCP is designed for an 8086 XT. Why not down load the source code and recompile it for an 80816 (Using Borland C++ 3.1) This reduced the size of epppd from 45638 bytes to 44406 bytes. I then decided to go the "whole hog" and recompile the package using all the speed optimizing parameters that BC allowed me. This resulst in epppd being 47830 bytes. This is the version that I decided to test. The result is that I have had no more stalling problems since. Not once! Before I get a flood of messages from list members asking me for copies of LXTCP compiled specifically for a palmtop, I should check with Tony Lopez, the copyright implications. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 13 Feb 2000 17:23:10 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , S_Carder@COMPUSERVE.COM Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Steve Carder Subject: Re: Login MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable > I wonder if someone might be able to offer the best login software for = the > 200LX . . . would like to be forced to login on powerup - a bit of = security > for my data!

Time to d/l is spent in any case, no? Unless you figured out a tricky way to peek over and see the stuff, decide about it and dump it, all without downloading into the palmtop, a process that takes time. The second issue is space. Removing headers sure saves LOTS of space. But then the process adds more time to processing because you have to check on it, and decide it, and then compress it out of the message body.

Yes! It's freeware, takes up virtually no memory and is very easy to operate.

There are a few Windows (tm, all hail Bill Gates) graphics programs that support this file type (Vueprint, for example), but I am not aware of anything for DOS, unfortunately.

If I purchase in volume I think that I could get a substantial discount. I don't want enough to make a volume purchase and I hate to pay $4, so I was wondering if people on the list would be interested. If there was enough interest, I could buy a large lot, then resell to the list. So what I need are some estimates of how many, and what price I should be willing to pay. If you are interested please email me off list with: 1. How many you would be interested in. 2. What you think is a reasonable price per jewel case to pay. 3. The most you would be willing to pay per case for the number you are interested in. Shipping would be extra, for now just assume $3.20 per order for USPS priority. For just one or two, it could probably be shipped in a padded envelope for a couple bucks. After that I'll see what kind of deal I can make, and if it fits what people want to pay. I'll post my findings to the list. I guess I should say that your response to this does not constitute an order, and you are under no obligation to purchase any cases. I am also not under any obligation to sell any cases.

I've never been able to get it to work with the 200LX, and my understanding was that the 800 was using IRDA vs SIR on the 200LX. This was while running Win95 on the 800 and trying LapLink, Transfile and CPack. Older models of the OB (300, 400, ?) were supposedly designed with 200LX comm in mind, but the 800 seems a departure (and not sure about the 600). OTOH, if anyone's done 200LX <-> 800CT via IR, I'd like to know also. I know there's been success with other notebooks, particularly as they seemed to have been provided with alternative IR drivers (vs just IRDA for the 800). - Longden Andrew King on 02/16/2000 01:34:20 PM Please respond to HPLX Mailing List ; Please respond to Andrew King To: HPLX-L@UCONNVM.UConn.Edu cc: (bcc: Longden Loo/AGH/Candle) Subject: connecting HP200LX to Omnibook 600/800 with IR Hello I'm thinking about getting a nicer notebook and wanted PC card slots and IR port.

But lately I am running into the problem that my palmtop will somehow change the date to July 1999! And the weird part is that I get no warning whatsoever, unlike with 1980.

And I'm normally very bothered by this glare. I think the sharpness of the screen is one of it's best points. However, there are solutions if it does bother you. There are a number of screen protectors, some held on by static electricity and others by adhesive. A lot of them come with a matte finish. I think the other PalmOS device that you're thinking about is the TrgPro. It's made by TRG, who has been making the memory upgrades for the Palm. It's a lot more expensive but it has more memory and uses a standard compact flash card, where the Handspring uses a proprietary card. The TrgPro also has PalmOS in flash like the Palms do, so it can be upgraded. The handspring has PalmOS in rom and you're stuck forever with the OS version it comes with. This is especially important since there's a major upgrade of PalmOS due out in a couple of months. I don't use my Palm enough now to get another one. But if I did I'd be looking pretty closely at the TrgPro.

To compare these measurements with your results (50 mA idle and 90-100 during keystrokes), at the same power consumption (watts), with higher voltage the level of current must be lower (if I remember well from school). As you worked with 3 Volts, it should be one fourth of what you reported in your second Email. It is, however just half. Is there anybody who could explain that ? Conclusion: The higher power consumption (30% higher, or 12 mA, measured at 12 Volts) when holding a key down, for me, is not too much for the higher editing speed. I will keep the mode statement in my autoexcec.bat file. Thanks for the tip !

You can make it NOMAIL for a few days, and it will stop sending you mail. Also, open a YAHOO.COM email address, and tell it to go check on your email at the location where you normally get email. You'll need to give login id at the normal ISP, password, and the server name for that POP3. Yahoo will then get your email on any internet connected machine. You can either specify to delete messages on the remote server or keep them. Conider the following in your deliberations: 1. You will be entering your password into someone's machine - both the Yahoo account and the regular email account. You have little control about what happens to that info. 2. Your email will be downloaded to the machine where you view it, so you can view it. You need to worry about caches, and what happens to data in that machine. Don't panic, just consider this... It works, and I used thi method before. I recommend to do it and practice it at home, where you can learn what you need to do. One more item, I remove the remote isp from my Yahoo account each time after usage. Prudence... Avi The above is my own private opinion.

You can not download wap pages and use Hv on them. Wap pages are written in wml which is some sort of html. And Hv only understands html. But there should not be a problem for anyone with experience to modify Hv to understand wml. Wap/wml is nice for palmtop's I think because they are "light"..no graphics and stuff like that..only text, but there are support for graphics.

This way you can treat each message as a separate email and respond to it and it will have the proper subject. When you download individual messages each of them has a lot of "non-payload" in the form of headers. In the case of a digest, there is only minimal headers attached to each message and therefore is not downloaded. I think Steve posted just recently something about how GP handles digests. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 17 Feb 2000 11:41:04 +0100 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Winfried Zettelmeyer Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Winfried Zettelmeyer Subject: OFF TOPIC: GPS measurements MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi all, especially GPS fans, please, excuse the bandwidth, however, I know there is considerable wisdom in the LX community on GPS. The other day I tried to employ GPS for survey work, to measure the size of a plot of around 10 hectares. Results were useless when compared to cadastral maps with deviation of around 40% from topographic data. I knew that GPS was not too exact with plus or minus 30 meters tolerance but the deviation was just too large. So I tested my GPS (Apollo Precedus) by placing it under the sky programming one take every second, producing 1647 points in about half an hour, with the GPS in a fixed position. I read these points into the LX and produced a Lotus graph that showed a track like that of a hen being chased around in a cage. Maximum deviations from the center point (gravity) were around 80 meters, with distances between corner points of 124 meters East-West and 100 meters North-South. My question: The Apollo Precedus has a plug DGPS (differential GPS). That is supposed to be exact. Does anybody have an idea how that works, especially which kind of data go into that plug and where to get them ? Is there a GPS interest group somewhere which could be helpful? Please, answer off-list not to bother the rest of the community. Thank you all.

The super glue ended up fixing the problem. At first I did not think it would work but after about 6-8 hours the glue hardened enough to make the space bar good as new. The lesson I learned is that if you do a lot of typing,try to hit the space bar right in the middle. Otherwise you can wear out the left or right plastic connector tab. Instead of two tabs, they probably should have had three tabs because the key is so long.

It's been there a while and seems professionaly done so I'd be surprised if this isn't legal. Also now that Builder 5 is out, Borland is offering its underlying command line compiler(BCC 5.5) and tools without the gui (but with the optimizer) free to download on their site. And, unlike builder, this does dos and windows 16 bit apps as well as win32. There's a lot there. Thats at www.inprise.com. Of course both TC++ 3.01 and BCC 5.5 won't run on the palmtop.

My discomfort in LA is really many things, partly the level of crime (still higher than other places, although, as you point out, may be on the way down), the lifestyle is too brusque and too rough, the almost total dependence on a car to go anywhere and do anything, waaaaaaay too many people, and more coming in all the time, and so on.

It was around 1990 and promised to be some kind of a DOS power user heaven; but I don't know if it was for Win or DOS or even the OS/2. Is it any related to the palmtop? Another software of interest: Hijaak. It's something which is still alive and well, but now only for Win9x. I'm looking for the older (circa 1989) version, which was OK even for the XT (or palmtop). Hijaak is a gra- phics format conversion package that supports about 120 filetypes and can be useful to view faxes, PS and TIFF, etc. on the HPLX. I am trying the IBM PCjr IR keyboard with the 200LX, but Datacomm is not the best tool for the purpose, is there something more convenient SW, where I can test different baudrates and parities with IR? If IR proves incompatible, cable option is still there and it seems easy to modify, as the pinout is known. It uses simple 4-wire RJ11 UTP phone cord. I was suprised that Accurite Doubleslot works with the Silicom card and 8MB Kingston CF. Really nice to copy files, especially as the loan machine is 200LX/1MB/1x. BTW, I found out that I can use the Silicom only with PDIPX/NETX drivers for the Accton. The reason is that we still use Netware 3.11, which predates ODI, but the Silicom doesn't come with native IPX/Netx, only ODI. Maybe my company should keep up with IT pace? However anything is better that WinNt... Also we'll have two new AS/400e, a model 720 and 170. I hope it ensures another troublefree five-seven years especially if we can introduce Domino on it, solving LAN collaboration server needs without any PC at all. The PC is nice, but not for everything. At least I can run TN5250 emulation on the LX and log into OS/400...

Violent crimes have dropped 18% in the past 3 years. Hmmmm...Mark Twain said "there are lies, damn lies and statistics". The LAPD (at least Rampart Division) seems to have taken over LA's violent crime scene so it's pretty easy for the police to massage LA's crime statistics and spin police perpetrated violent crime (via corruption and death squads) into heroes upholding public safety doing society a big favor. The liability compensation, especially with California jurists, for wrongful imprisonment or death may even bankrupt LA as this scandal snowballs. Police departments all over America reclassify crimes or "lose case files" while under tacit/overt pressure to habitually under report crimes to keep their communities (appearing) safe and attractive to tourists and taxpayers alike. Now we understand why O.J. wasn't convicted. For our international friends, and those who can't believe this (and a lot else) could happen in an America which wags its nagging finger worldwide, check out the LA Times website on the LAPD, planted evidence, wrongful convictions, violence and murders for a real eye opener: http://www.latimes.com/news/state/updates/lat_rampart000218.htm Sidney Ho ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 18 Feb 2000 08:41:19 -0600 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Barry Marks Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Barry Marks Subject: Re: HPLX-L Digest - 16 Feb 2000 to 17 Feb 2000 (#2000-68) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit >What model thinkpad do you have? >What IR mode do you select to comunicate with the palmtop? >What operating system do yo have? I have a 365XD, a 385ED and a 1412i. I keep the old ones when I upgrade. I've used the IR on both the 365XD and 385ED a few times. But I don't remember how I did it. I found something that assigned the serial port to the IR on the Thinkpad, I guess. And of course the same on the LX. I do remember it didn't take much fumbling. It worked the first or second time I tried it. I'm sure I was using Windows 95 then. I only upgraded everything to Win 98 a few months ago. I remember that I did test the IR transfer with Win98 to make sure it worked. I don't remember the results but if it had been any problem I'm sure I would remember that. As soon as I figured out how much easier with PCMCIA transfer I began doing that and I haven't used the IR since. In fact, I've had the 1412i for only a few weeks and I just found out it has IR on a laptop newsgroup. By the way, the reason I can afford to get new laptops this often (about every 18 months) even though they're only a convenience to me, is that I watch for closouts when they change models. And then I argue about the price. I was tempted to get the 1412i at $1995 but decided not to spend that much. Three weeks later the new models came out and I saw it for $1395 and with a little negotiating I got it for $1300 including the extended warranty. The deals I got on the other ones were even better since stores used to have more room to negotiate. It's not hard to find these deals at the big computer stores if you look about every week or two. Negotiating usually has to be done with the manager.

I'm not sure about the hppim apps, but cpack pims had some problems under NT that was fixed by making more environment space. Maybe a long shot, but if you have nothing else to try... This was posted by Geert van Wirdum October of last year (subject: CPack vs Transfile (was: CPack Question and others) ): To recap the earlier discussion, an important issue with running cpack under NT is the use of environment resource, which is devoted to maintaining variables accessed by other apps. These variables and their values can be displayed using the DOS SET command, or by using ControlPanel/System/Environment. If you're having trouble with functions in cpack (Filer wouldn't work for me), try using ControlPanel/System/Environment to remove extraneous variables and/or values to gain back environment space, which cpack appears to need. - Longden Gary Carne on 02/18/2000 04:51:27 AM Please respond to HPLX Mailing List ; Please respond to Gary Carne To: HPLX-L@UCONNVM.UConn.Edu cc: (bcc: Longden Loo/AGH/Candle) Subject: hppim under Windows NT Has anyone successfully run the hppim appointment book application under Windows NT?

Regarding 5110..I know that you can not use it for data because it has the same internal solution as the 6110. It needs a software modem (Nokia Cellular Data Suite.) If sms will work..hmm I would think so. I have not tested this of course. But I think that the 5110 "talks" irda language on the cable. So it should be possible to use Andreas Garzotto's sms.scr/Robot/Lx to work if you have a cableconnection. Stefan's PDU does not work via irda on my 7110. I can download sms from 7110->Hplx but not send. Stefan told me that they do not know why. It should work, but does not Work with Nokiaphones.. The cable you need is a Daup9 I think. It is possible to get cheap. This cable will work with Logonanager for a lot of things..Nokia Cellular Data Suite 2.0/3.0 can also be found out there somewhere.. If you get it to work with the Hp you can only use it for sms and not data So it is more useful with a desktop/Windowssystem. Regarding the rest of your posting I have nothing to add..

Assuming you have your problem lines starting in cell A1 2. Copy the macro below to an area below the problem lines. (In this example the macro is located in range A100..B110) 3. With the cursor in cell A110 "name" the ranges of the macro with the command: /RNLR{DOWN 10} 4. Start the macro with +A (or +A if you run Windows) Voila, this should delete duplicate lines (cells) \A {goto}A1~{let celltest_1,(@cellpointer("contents"))}{d} again {let celltest_2,(@cellpointer("contents"))} {if @cellpointer("type")="b"}{quit} {if celltest_1=celltest_2}/wdr~{again} {let celltest_1,(@cellpointer("contents"))}{d} {let celltest_2,(@cellpointer("contents"))} {if celltest_1=celltest_2}/wdr~{again} {again} celltest_1 celltest_2 As I mentioned I would like a "second opinion" on whether or not this could be done more elegantly.

I've been testing the Jornada keyboard for the past couple of weeks. The first few days I fought with it because it's a slightly different keyboard (I go through that struggle with each new keyboard, so no big deal.) Once I got used to the layout of the keys and how the Windows key works with the other keys, I began to like it and use it much more. I even composed the last couple of Email Newsletters using the Palmtop... one was written while waiting in an appropriately called hospital waiting room. The keyboard is very fast and responsive. The "feel" is also quite good. I really like it. Granted, the Jornada keyboard is a bit pricey, but the other external keyboards built for the PDA market are in the same price range. .ed.ÝPTP¨ ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 18 Feb 2000 16:41:27 -0800 Reply-To: patrickwest@uswest.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Patrick West Subject: Re: hppim under Windows NT MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit It runs fine on my older desktop.

Years ago, I purchased a Newton keyboard from Shier Systems and Software. I don't think they sell it anymore. The nice feature about this Newton keyboard is it requires no adapter to plug it into the HP 200LX. Shier Systems & Software replaced the original Newton keyboard cable with one that will work with the 200LX. All you do is plug it in, run the driver, press a hot keys sequence to activate the keyboard and start typing. If you can find one of these, get it. You will like it. It was a little pricey when I ordered it from Shier and I have no idea what a used one would cost, if you can even find one. It is a great desktop companion. Thaddeus.com has the Jornada keyboard. This keyboard cost $139.00 and requires the HP connectivity cable. They sell both so this may be your only option. I hope you find one used. If you use your 200LX as much as I do, it is really nice to fly over the keyboard instead of using a couple of fingers and a thumb to input data on the 200LX keys. An external keyboard is really handy for large projects. William E.

The one advantage to the above is that you can still use the Jornada keyboard with the Jornada CE machines since the keyboard now has a standard serial port on it. You will of course need the Jornada cable to plug into the keyboard, but they all come with one fortunately.

Well, I did not mean to start a holy war about gun usage in LA, or crime statistics. I think there is violence everywhere in more or less amounts. I don't like LA anymore because I feel there is more violence here. But that is a subjective observation. Perhaps I am less tolerant, perhaps I happen to be more aware, perhaps the are where I live is more affected. To state from my personal experience that LA is not so bad, or that is, seems ludicrous. One picture makes it sound like Los Angeles is a blissful place where people are all friends, help each other out, and love one another. That is not the case. The other picture would make you feel that policemen on the street prowl the neighbourhoods looking for some dumb, innocent citizen to arrest, rob, torture, whatever. Clearly, that is not the case either. The stats can indeed be massaged. BOTH ways. The media is hungry for something to publish. Readers look for something to read. It is an unfortunate human trait that looks for the sensationalist. I suspect that the LA Times, while very good about sources and accuracy, will find it hard to report on how a cop stopped me the other day, and was very pleasant - still gave me a ticket, mind you! :-) - but was very courteous, explained things, accomodated two of my requests with no problems. That's a lousy story for the paper! Are there nasty cops in LA? Surely! I am sure there are bad cops EVERYWHERE in the world. Remember? they are humans. I have no doubts, and I even know one bad one. To implicate all several thousand cops because within the Rampart Division there was nasty, evil group of cops, is really not fair. Finally, Sidney, I would like to ask you where you live most of the time, and when you are in SoCal where are you staying usually. :-) (I am guessing the answer based on our off-line email exchanges, but it seems that you should disclose that in the context of Bad Los Angeles Cops! :)... ) Anyway, I still want to leave LA, and increasingly wanted to do it for several years, but I am still here. Because it is not as desparate as the picture painted by LA Times, at least I do not perceive it as so. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 18 Feb 2000 19:36:24 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , David Sargeant Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: David Sargeant Subject: PocketDOS MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII So has anybody with a Windows CE machine tried the new XT-CE competitor, PocketDOS, from www.pocketdos.com? ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 18 Feb 2000 20:02:25 -0800 Reply-To: patrickwest@uswest.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Patrick West Subject: Re: PocketDOS Comments: To: David Sargeant MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I d/l it just this week.

I use POST/LX and HV/LX. For setup I used SETCOM which is available in the www section at ftp.dasoft.com. This sets the necessary www parameters automatically; like plug and play. The only thing I had to do, was to select IrDA on the Nokia 8210. I placed it next to the hp200lx infrared port. I did start POST/LX and pressed F5. The Nokia was detected automatically, the connection established and POST/LX did download my latest emails. I did download "ring" from Stefan Peichls web page using this infrared connection via the NOKIA 8210. When I quit POST/LX or HV/LX, the IrDA was disable after a minutes on the NOKIA automatically. "Ring" used according the docs displays EMI errors/sec 162, the other values were zero. Result: it works and is easy to use. Nice and handy solution.

That's a lousy story for the paper! Like Serbian history and Orthodox Christianity in the heart of Europe. Doesn't make a good story or sell newspapers here either. In America (and maybe even in Europe) most people don't know that 800.000 Serbs were liquidated in WWII by an unholy alliance of Croats, Nazis and the Vatican, that 40,000 of the best Allied partisans including many of the intelligentsia were executed in Slovenia right after WWII, that 3-400,000 Serbs were ethnically cleansed out of Croatia during the Bosnian war, that Serbia has 1 million refugees and is by far the most ethnically diverse of the Balkan countries, that the infamous shell in a Sarajevo market was fired by Muslims on their own people to incite the West to act (but falsely blamed on the Serbs and never corrected because it was bad politics), that the KLA are the biggest drug dealers in Europe, that Albanians run 90 pct of the northern Italy drug trade and that violent crime has increased drastically all over Europe as a result of perspicacious western policies. Corruption? It really is everywhere. Look at would be lily-white Germany today (not that it doesn't happen in Switzerland, Italy or France or elsewhere). > > Are there nasty cops in LA? Surely!

I'm cynical enough to believe the practice is more widespread than alleged, admitted or can be admitted. That is truly scary. But I'm constantly appalled, as an American, at how much the USA points its finger worldwide for political ends and (laudably) human rights while hypocritically allowing its own chain gangs, prison labor, excessive human rights violations in Waco TX, NYC, LA and within FBI ranks--same things. You are partly right but it is fair because there has long been an exceptionally difficult to break and easy to exploit "code of silence" among the police--everywhere, and it is surely not just confined to the Rampart Division. This is just the proverbial tip of the iceberg. > Finally, Sidney, I would like to ask you where you live > most of the time, and when you are in SoCal where are you > staying usually. :-) (I am guessing the answer based on our > off-line email exchanges, but it seems that you should > disclose that in the context of Bad Los Angeles Cops! :)... I live full time in Switzerland but often visit my folks in Irvine, CA (Orange County) or close friends Beverly Hills / West LA (haven't been back in over a year). Both, BTW, are fairly safe, rigorously policed (as in mini-police state) communities. I know LA and much of USA well and also feel quite safe when I'm there. But this is easily explained because when you're American you (generally) know where you can safely go, by experience and instinct. Unfortunately, and sometimes terminally, this is usually not true for foreign visitors. There are many big USA cities where crossing the wrong street already puts you in a literally VERY dangerous and different world, instantly. > > Anyway, I still want to leave LA, and increasingly wanted > to do it for several years, but I am still here.

I rarely even think about violence while stateside unless there's a big story at that moment. There are many nice places and much to do. At a distance from outside, the sheer randomness and scale of violence in the USA is rather more worrisome.

The scary thing for me about Zurich, Winterthur, _anywhere_ in Switzerland actually, is "the sheer randomness of the violence, and that it can happen at any time, anywhere, to anyone by anybody of nearly any age under any circumstance." I acknowledge the lower likelihood of such an event in Switzerland vs. USA, but your scary view speaks of randomness of violence. USA does not have all the randomness in the world! :-) ... > Both quite right, but not in certain ethnic and gang neighborhoods.

In America (and Ý...snip many atrocities cites! ...¨ Yes, exactly. You cited the LA times as a reliable source for condemnation of LA Cops. I think LA Times is guilty as any of selectivity in stats, citations, and so on. It is a newspaper and they look for stories that sells. The selectivity of the stories creates the tension they want: The story is true, all substantiated. But it is provided on a a blank background, with no perspective, and thus it tends to represent the "whole" reality. And that is false. I have a close friend who lives in Switzerland and lived in the USA. Despises Velveeta. He speaks about it so much that it seems like the ONLY cheese in the USA is Velveeta. Needless to say, he had other, good cheeses here, and where not, he simply was looking in the wrong places :-) ... The story about the bad cops is awful, and terribly painful for the whole police department - and for good reason. But we are talking about maybe 10, 20 cops out of I think 9,000! So 0.25% of the policeforce is corrupt. I suspect there is an equal percentage in other, places in the EU, specifically. (Yes I know it is just _those_ 20 and there are more... Same argument applies.) > I'm cynical enough to believe the practice is more widespread than > alleged, admitted or can be admitted. That is truly scary. But I'm Agreed. So what?

It is a much much larger country than european countries, and maybe the whole continent (?). It is well connected, and the media has huge coverage. Therefore you hear more about things like this. I am not sure that the Swiss crime stats are a lot better than USA proportinately, but frankly I do not know. Also, are they measuring the same way?

Circuit details are available at http://www.hut.fi/~ptuomine/nokia/ for those interested. I have trialled it under Win98 and it works fine and my next step is to see if it can be interfaced to an HP200LX. I can't see why there should be a problem as I understand the protocol is RS232 at 115K (this has been gleaned through posted info to various web sites). If that is the case then it SHOULD be possible to use an HP200LX to control a Nokia for SMS, data and fax. The trick is obviosly to understand the protocol they use. Can anyone shed any light on this? Is anyone doing any work in this area?

Regarding 5110..I know that you can not use it for data because it has the same internal solution as the 6110. It needs a software modem (Nokia Cellular Data Suite.) If sms will work..hmm I would think so. I have not tested this of course. But I think that the 5110 "talks" irda language on the cable. So it should be possible to use Andreas Garzotto's sms.scr/Robot/Lx to work if you have a cableconnection. Stefan's PDU does not work via irda on my 7110. I can download sms from 7110->Hplx but not send. Stefan told me that they do not know why. It should work, but does not Work with Nokiaphones.. The cable you need is a Daup9 I think. It is possible to get cheap. This cable will work with Logonanager for a lot of things..Nokia Cellular Data Suite 2.0/3.0 can also be found out there somewhere.. If you get it to work with the Hp you can only use it for sms and not data So it is more useful with a desktop/Windowssystem. Regarding the rest of your posting I have nothing to add..

The most often used browser on the HP200LX is HV (by Andreas Garzotto), in conjunction with WWW/LX, a TCP/IP engine, also made by Andreas Garzotto.

The cable, without any adapters, is a null modem cable and is intended to connect the HP directly to a desktop/laptop computer. Now depending on your desktop, you might need a 9-25 pin adapter or even a gender changer but not anything that switches electrical lines. To use that cable with an external modem, you do need to add a null modem adapter and again, any size or gender changes depending on your external modem. The adapters are meant to connect to a modem or other devices.

So when someone buys a upgraded Jornada keyboard from us they get: 1. Your great software that allows the keyboard to be used 2. Keyboard with Jornada cable and serial cable (that we added). Then you plug in a 200LX connectivity cable into the serial cable. The final version of the software makes the keyboard very easy to use. There is a FN key on the Jornada that supports all the 200LX functions except cut, copy, and paste. Cut, copy, and paste are generated by Windows key X, Windows C, and Windows V. Alt serves as the MENU key in system manager. There are 12 function keys on the Jornada keyboard. Windows A goes to Appt, Windows P to Phone, Windows M to Memo, Windows & to MORE, etc. Unfortunately, we have not been able to obtain 200LX connectivity cables cheaply in quantity or we would put the 200LX connectivity end as with David Shier's solution. I spoke with David, but unfortunately, the company he used to buy 200LX connectivity ends won't do it any more. We're still looking. The keyboard has a great feel. Actually, it is the Jornada 820 keyboard, repackaged. We sell the solution (without Connectivity cable) for $139 at 800-373-6114, orders@thaddeus.com, www.palmtoppaper.com ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 20 Feb 2000 17:57:41 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "Rodger N.

I did some weekend driving after doing my taxes and hit a small software shop in SLO that I always check on for old stuff (Software Outlet). I bought a nice Wetsuit carrying case for the Omnibook 800CT for $10. Price was marked at $15, so I'm not sure if that was a sale item or if it was a mistake. Also saw an infra-red network port by HP which sold for $50. It has both an IR sensor and a 10baseT connector that I think links it with a LAN. You're then supposed to use the IR on your notebook whenever you want to connect. Pretty neat ... no wires to plug in, but I'm not sure if it works with the 800CT. Anyone know about this item? Other things ... I bought some items from a rummage bin: - 95LX Connectivity kit, by Nuvotech. Contains 1.5 meter cable, software. Since the 95LX's port is different from the 200LX, I'm pretty sure this won't work on the 100/200LX. - BitFax/BitCom for DOS V 4.0: looks like basic fax/communications software and says it automatically captures HP Laserjet printer output for fax transmissions. Works with DOS 3.0 or later. I haven't opened either shrink-wrapped package, so if anyone knows anything about these or are interested in buying 'em from me, let me know. I bought them mostly to save from the refuse pile, I think. $10 for either one (that includes shipping, in the US). Please respond off-list if you're interested. They also had Lotus Freelance Graphics, Perspective, Quattro Pro 1.0 SE for DOS, and Applause... some old presentation graphics stuff. Also had several nice Dauphin keyboards for $15, tho it came with a PS/2 type connector. Had a nice feel, tho I don't know how it compares to the Jornada external keyboard, or if the PS/2 connector can even be made to work with the 200LX serial port. - Longden ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2000 06:39:28 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Robert Edson Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Robert Edson Subject: FW: WWW/HV Problems MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit > | > | > Help!

Well its here you run into problems. As I wrote below the 5110 does not contain any "modem". It needs a softwaremodem to work. Softwaremodems are either Nokia Cellular Data Suite(winsoftware) or Pcmica Tdk Global Pulse (which has CE/Palm drivers) > The > trick is obviosly to understand the protocol they use. You should be able to send sms. But what trick you can use to insert a "modem" into the 5110 I do not know. But good luck. I could be wrong about my info on the 5110. But what I understand about the 51xx series is that it has the same internals(or at least the same solution inside) as the 61** series. That means that it can not be used as modem eventhough you can connect a cable to it. The cable is for sms and softwaremodem(+logos/ringtones and stuff like that..)

I do not know why you don't get to download it.. But I would suggest that you use your desktop pc to download the availible newsgroups. Use any kind of newsreader. This because the file with all availbe newsgroups is over 1.5 mb with the provider I used before. The only thing you need to know is what groups are availible and how they are spelled.

If it contains a .WAB file, that's your address book file from Outlook Express. It's named after the account profile you first created. If you have any files named *.WA~, then I think they are the backup of the current file. Microsoft Outlook is an entirely different matter, and you may find files for its offline operations stored in the directory C:\WINDOWS\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook (maybe). It's possible you will find files with .OST and .PST extensions from Outlook almost anywhere on the disk. If so, they can be opened directly by using Outlook's File|Open dialog.

If you want to search the manual I recommed to keep it as text file and to use it with PalEdit - directly if you know the exact search string (F4 Find) - or together with FIND/LX from www.dasoft.com to do approximate searches in case you are not sure about the search string.

No problems! My highest ever Tetlix score is just over 1800 (amazing what you can accomplish on a seven hour train journey!) and what I want to know is: Is it actually possible to get over 2000 points, and does anything special happen if you do? You're completely right about the speed - after a certain point, the pieces start whizzing down so fast, you can't move them more than a couple of times before they hit the bottom. Incidentally, I would really love to credit the author of Tetlix on the site, but unfortunately I've never been able to find out who wrote the game (I have no idea where I found it, either) - if anyone does know, please write in. -Mike Ýhttp://games.hplx.net¨ ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2000 17:39:48 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , MarkEvans Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: MarkEvans Subject: HPLXMAN Comments: To: Russell Hemery MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit please M > > ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2000 00:03:11 +0000 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , fjkaufman@WORLDNET.ATT.NET Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "F.

Sent it to the Adobe site, and saved the result. It was about 880K. Not big for HV :) I fired it up and it works just fine with HV. It shows indexing 1489 HV-pages. Problems with this version of the manual: 1. The keys are nicely imaged in the PDF file, but come out useless in the HTML, not as images, so it is tough to see. Someone will have to go through this manaul version and replace each occurence of ÝK¨ with ÝUp-Arrow¨ or whatever, to make it understandable... Big job. 2. There are references on each page to the next page, and it is a bit distracting. 3. There is an index to the pages, at the end, no idea how this is useful. Good things: Very detailed index, I believe better than the manual itself, but not sure. If this is not a violation of copyrights, this could be a nice addition to reference information on the palmtop. Either add small images of the keys or just "textualize" them :) --- instead of an image of the Enter key, put in ÝEnter¨ or some other typographical construct. If images are used for the keys, HV will not flow the text around them, i.e. the following will happen: this is a sentence with and Ýimage here¨ of a key cap. In HV you will see this: this is a sentence with and Ýimage here¨ of a key cap. The sentence will break on both sides sides of the image. Makes it harder to read. Screen images would be terrific, but finding them, and uploading them is a big job. Avi M.

It's good to share with all 200LX > user. I don't think it's copyright violation as every LX came with this > manual. At least I can print a proper one as my original one was broken. I am no lawyer, but this is probably a violation of the copyright. One reason is that if you give it to someone, you have no way of knowing if that person actually has purchased a legal copy of the palmtop and manual. I suspect you probably also don't want to get into that type of investigation, anyway... The second reason, much more compelling IMHO, is that the copyright protects the person/entity which owns the copyright from anyone making any copy of this material and re-publishing it. Making another copy of the manual in PDF format violates the copyright right there. Making it available to anyone else is a violation of the copyright because it is tantamount to publishing the same material (albeit in another format). Imagine you write a great song and copyright it. It is only printed in a book somewhere, but is very popular among readers. Someone copies the words and puts the music, and the song becomes an instant success. The violation is that material was taken that does not belong to the taker, its format was changed, and it was published. As to whether HP will go after someone who publishes this material or not is probably a tough call. Their case is somewhat diminished because they announced officially they will cease manufacturing the 200LX, and so this limits the extent of their claim to damages. So they may win a lawsuit and get 1 penny in damages. But defending against such a suit will cost a nice chunk of change. Again, I am no lawyer, so it is wise to find out from a professional, not from me! :-) ... Avi The above is my own private opinion.

It was such a wealth of information that I could narrow this gap considerably in a matter of hours. For my survey problem I searched for and found a shop that hires out GPS receivers for survey purposes. The renter takes a GPS and walks the plot to establish a track. During the same period, the shop creates another series of data at their location which are compared to their known geographical position. When returning the unit the GPS data are downloaded and confronted with the shop's series and corrected accordingly. The renter takes a diskette with the corrected series home and can then process those data, e.g. calculate surface areas etc. Error is supposed to be one meter only. The thread on the list was very interesting. I learned in the process that errors for normal GPS reception are indeed plus minus 100 meters (thanks, Curtis!), due to the Department of Defense invoked "Selective Availability" (SA). It is indeed "goofy" as Tim Shephard says, that one US government agency spoils the signal and the other (Coast Guard) sends a correction. However, I also read in one of the sources on the WEB (www.tapr.org/tapr/html/w3iwidgpstuorial.html), that if the DoD turned off Selective Availability performance would not be better than 10 to 20 meters accuracy anyway, and that DGPS performance is, in fact, better than can be achieved by undisturbed GPS alone. But then, of course, the military would have to correct too, is this the case or do they have access to "better" data ? Still mysterious for me. And when they have to correct as well, why do they maintain SA, when a correction signal from a landbased radio, from satellites and even from the Internet can compensate and even improve every user's accuracy ? And, more to the LX-topic, (1) can anybody tell me how I can download data from my Apollo Precedus with a DOS program directly to the LX instead of having to go via the windows program that came with the GPS ? I will, of course, check with the manufacturer as well. (2) Another interesting question is if it is possible to make the LX, combined with a mobile phone, a base station to receive DGPS correction signals from the INTERNET and feed these to the GPS into its DGPS socket instead of the "windows computer" that is required currently or the staggered process of two data series which are later compared ? The INTERNET signal, of course, would have to come from a source that is not too far away from users, that is, in my case, it cannot come from San Francisco but from Europe somewhere..

HP has not relinquished the copyright, and without their permission, no one has the right to reproduce it or make it available. From a businessman's point of view we (Thaddeus Computing) worked long and hard to get permission from HP and then scan in the 200LX manual for our CD Infobase. On the other hand, HP has always been very liberal about allowing manuals to be reprinted after a product has been discontinued.

Great memory though, what did you do, record this in your LX? :-) I have not had anything to comment on for quite sometime now, bummer! I went through a wave of bad used (refurbished) 200LX's that I received from HP's express exchange program. I had received about five units, that each had something different wrong with them, that had to be sent back to HP, until finally HP agreed to send me a brand new one. Once they even accidently sent me someone elses LX that was sent in for repair. The whole bottom was covered in velcro, and that is when I knew there was something not right with this unit. It still had all their personal data on it. I even got the paid receipt for their repair, showing which credit card they used to pay for it. Woops! Of the many units I had received, each had different hinge tensions. Some were just right, some were too loose, and some were too tight. One of the units had a hinge way too tight. I decided that this unit would be a good one to experiment on, because I knew that this unit was going back to HP, because it had other problems with it. I removed the right side hinge cap, and examined the make up of the right side hinge. It is a steel pin, in the center, that is fixed to the base of the LX, surrounded by a rubber bushing, that rotates around the steel pin, connected to the lid. The left side hinge is just plastic rotating around plastic, and offers only a pivot, without any resistance. The right side hinge cap can easily be removed by having the lid open about half way, and then using the finger nails of your thumb and forefinger (index, pointer), to pop the hinge cap off. Once the right side hinge cap is removed, you will see the steel pin, and the rubber bushing. I put the LX up on edge, with the AC jack facing upwards. I then sprayed some WD-40 into the cap of the WD-40 can, until I got enough liquid in the cap, to stick something into the liquid in the cap. If I recall, I used a toothpick, to form a very small droplet, on the end of the toothpick, and then dropped the droplet, in between the steel pin, and the rubber bushing. Still keeping the LX on its edge, I worked the lid, by opening and closing the lid, until the WD-40 worked its way in. It made closing the lid much easier. In my opinion, one of the main contributing factors of the hinge crack forming, is units that have hinges that require excessive pressure to close the lid, in which the plastic case surrounding the hinge, just can't take the excessive repeated stress, and then gives way. I would be willing to bet, that if there was a gauge that could be made, that would measure the force required to close all the lids, of all the people, who have had their LX's for years, but have never developed a hinge crack, and then compared those baseline measurements, to all the people who have developed a hinge crack, that their hinges are just too tight. The real problem is a lot of users only have one unit, so they have nothing to compare the hinge tension in their unit to. It was only when I had my hands on the many LX's, that had to be returned, that I discovered the difference in hinge tensions. I even had one unit who's lid was so loose, that it would close, or open, all by itself. To experiment on the unit with the loose hinge, I did the opposite of using oil, and used a tiny drop of rubbing alcohol. It worked like a charm. It put the tension of the lid just where I feel it should have been. I feel the correct tension, is just enough to keep the lid from closing or opening, by itself. Anything more could lead to a hinge crack. Anything less is only a slight inconvience . I now own three LX's, but really only use one. I bought a spare in case my primary unit ever failed, and then a co-worker had another unit for sale, that I just couldn't turn down the price of, so now I have three. All three of my current units have perfect hinge tensions, so I don't fear the dreaded hinge crack, and have been lucky enough not to ever have had one. Hope this helps.

You can do a report from 1999-2000. Here's how: Choose Custom date for the report and enter the following: From 6/30/99 To 6/30'00 (adjust to dates needed) In other words if you replace the last "/" with an "'" it will work. For all future reports (2000 and on) just insert "'" before the year 00 or, From 6/30'00 To 6/30'01 (etc.) -Eric ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2000 13:58:34 -0600 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "James P.

This is a simple one. I typically have things on my ToDo list (including F3/notes for each item) and when I get around to doing them, I like to move the item to Appt and log the time it was done. The problem is that simple Fn-Cut(or Copy) and Fn-Paste between ToDo and Appt don't really work well, so I tried to write a macro to do so. It assumes that I'm in ToDo and the item I want moved is already highlighted. What I try to do is: - Grab the Description line, goto Appt, open a new appt and paste in the Description - Go back to the ToDo item, grab the note, go to the Appt and paste the note in there - The new appt is left as an event because most of the time I do this transfer way after the time when the item was done and didn't want to just plug in the current time as the "Start Time" because it'd be wrong anyway. - After the entry is done, I manually enter the start time. << My problem >>: I can't seem to grab the note from the ToDo using what I'd normally do (Shift-Ctrl-End to select all of the text) ... the macros don't seem to allow the Shift-Ctrl combo. When I try to use the macro "record" feature (F8), it records my Shift-Ctrl-End as simply {Ctrl+End} which selects nothing. My kluge is to copy the entire item (highlight the Todo and Fn-Copy) and paste it into the note of the appt, then delete the headers in the note which are a fixed number of lines each time. Does anyone else have a better "generic" macro to do this (Buddy is NOT allowed). My current kluge macro is programmed as Fn-F4: {Enter}{Copy}{F9}n{F9}{F2}{Paste}{Tab}{Del}{F10}{F10}{ Copy}{F9}{F3}{Paste}{Ctrl+Home}{Shift+Down}{Shift+ Down}{Shift+Down}{Shift+Down}{Shift+Down}{Shift+Down}{ Shift+Down}{Shift+Down}{Del}{F10} The breakdown: {Enter} ; puts the todo into edit mode with all text in description highlighted {Copy} ; copy the text {F9}n{F9} ; cancel edit, respond "no" to warning prompt, go to Appt {F2}{Paste}{Tab}{Del} ; create a new appt, paste in the description, clear the start time {F10}{F10} ; save the entry, go back to ToDo {Copy}{F9}{F3}{Paste} ; copy the entire todo, go to Appt, edit the note, paste in the entire todo {Ctrl+Home}{Shift+Down} ; all the rest just deletes the header that got copied over and saves it {Shift+Down}{Shift+Down} {Shift+Down}{Shift+Down} {Shift+Down}{Shift+Down} {Shift+Down}{Del}{F10} More elegant solutions are eagerly awaited.

I've been using Expert Help from Sofsolutions for a while. From what I can tell it is free. It works with NG files and also comes with a compiler, decompiler etc. to make your own files. Works much better than the NG clones I have found. The complaints I have are screen colors (which you can change, but I haven't found a way to show all attributes), and the simple linking structure, just like NG. On simtel (http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/hypertxt.html) there are a number of hypertext programs available which I've looked at some. I tried NGX10d and AXGD??? some time ago but had problems with both. I seem to recall they worked with small files, but couldn't handle big ones. One package that seemed very promising was HLPDK but the screen colors are also a problem. I haven't found a way to adjust them at all. I've been looking at Blackmagic a lately. The install didn't work for me, but I was able to install manually. It does have some nice features including several types of links: normal links (that can appear anywhere in the text) and that jump to another section, note links which pop up a small window of information on the screen, and links to other files. It also supports inline graphics. Commands are not very intuitive, but the features may make up for this. I need to look at it more. If you try any of the others, I'd like to hear your comments.

Establishing the connection is as simple as placing the portable PC within three feet of NetBeamIR LAN access point: The connection is made in seconds. "HP's NetBeamIR LAN access point is the easiest solution for connecting a laptop to a network," said Nick Lippis, president of Strategic Networks Consulting, Inc. "It is so hassle-free that mobile users will want to connect to the LAN the minute they get into the office." "We're making life easy for mobile professionals by eliminating the need for cables to access the network," said Gary McAnally, general manager of HP's Roseville (Calif.) Networks Division. "And, for network administrators, we've eliminated the complexities associated with current solutions such as PCMCIA cards, parallel adapters and wireless LANs." NetBeamIR LAN access point connects directly to any 10Base-T or 10Base-2 Ethernet network at speeds up to 4 megabits-per-second (Mbps). The software needed to establish an infrared connection from the portable PC to NetBeamIR LAN access point is built into Windows 95. Any Windows 95-compatible network operating system works with NetBeamIR LAN access point, including Novell NetWare, Windows NT and LAN Manager, and IBM LAN Server. Using NetBeamIR LAN access point for LAN access has two secondary benefits for portable PC users. First, the infrared port on the portable PC needs minimal power to operate. Mobile professionals can stay connected to the network with very little additional drain on battery power. Second, using NetBeamIR LAN access point frees a PCMCIA slot on the portable for other uses. Infrared Standard Brings Compatibility, Reliability and Speed Because NetBeamIR LAN access point complies with the Infrared Data Association (IrDA) standard, it can be used with any brand of portable PC equipped with an IrDA-compliant infrared port. Leading industry analysts say that more than 75 percent of mobile computers shipped in the United States in 1996 include an infrared port. Now it's 1999, you do the math! IrDA compliance also delivers a high degree of reliability as data is being transferred. NetBeamIR LAN access point monitors for interruptions in the link and ensures data integrity if the link is broken. Under the IrDA standard, NetBeamIR LAN access point operates at 4Mbps, 1Mbps or 115Kbps. Like a modem, NetBeamIR LAN access point negotiates to the highest common speed with the portable PC upon connection. At 4Mbps, NetBeamIR LAN access point can send a 1MB file in approximately three seconds. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2000 17:19:27 -0300 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "Suquet, Stephan" Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Suquet, Stephan" Subject: Re: ÝExcel2.1 and Winword1.1 is here.¨ Comments: To: Tony Guzewicz MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello Guys, Does anyone can send me the Excel version running on the 200lx.

I'd be interested also as to whether there's a macro repository of some sort. I didn't see one in palmtop.net's database nor in SUPER. Could be that Buddy fulfills most people's needs, or that many macros are unique to the habits of their authors. I don't use many myself, and don't have "chained" macro files for different apps.

You need a port for the signal from the base to the LX and an additional one from the LX to the GPS. Then there's the question of processor overhead in formatting the signal correctly and the signal delay of the base - internet - ISP - cell provider - towers - cell phone signal path.

This is soviet equivalent of Navstar. Of course both satellite systems restrict ci- vilian users from high-precision signals, but comparing the two results on-the-fly may help reducing the error. BTW, russians still operate a number of things, already withdraw in "free world", like a version of LORAN and regular morse transmissions. Other: I made a trial with the IBM PCjr infrared keyboard and the 200LX. Although the PCjr keyboard uses IR biphase encoding, which should be unreadable to a UART, if fed to it directly; looks like, at 4800bps every keystroke send different unique series of characters (4-6 chars) to the 200LX. So maybe it could be used with a driver. I used DataComm for the trial. BTW, there is wired option for the keyboard, which uses standard 4-wire phone cord socket at the keyboard side, thus a custom cable would be easy to home-make. Other: I remember Mack once mentioned the theoretical max for RAM upgrade on the 200LX was 128MB. However the Deve- loper Guide says the max is 320MB and there's hardware support for LIM-EMS 3.2 So can we expect more RAM? Also, any chance for getting Adlib-like functionality with some soldering on the 3-channel 6-bit DAC for batteries? Have you heard of FPU add-on card in PCMCIA format? I mean even MorphyOne will not provide ample floating point capa- city, as the 486SX will be acommpanied by a DSP-based add- on for MP3 play, not good for any generic math. And poor 200LX really sucks at number crunching. A Weitek or Intel i960 based approach would be ideal, these devices can be handled in I/O oriented way, just like any peripheral. Of course power draw is the main issue, but FPU on PCMCIA means you can remove it when not doing CAD. BTW, I tried DesignSoft's Arcad DOS v5.6 demo on 1x 200LX. It's an architectural and office interior designer CAD software. This version was last to run on XT w/o numeric coprocessor. It works, but 3D is incredibly slow for "realistic display" (when screening off hidden lines). It is OK for 2D and mouseless operation is quite useable. Sorry, but they only gave me a Hungarian language demo version, so there is no point in putting it on the web. The retail exits in english and german as well.

No, the Developer's Guide says 320MBs including the 64MB's of space that can be addressed on both NCS (PCMCIA) signals and the NRCE (ROM) signal. You can only have 32MBs of space per each of the 4 NRAS (RAM) signals as they only have 24bit addressing in a 16bit wide data path.

You can specify the directory from the command line wp /d-x:\directory where x is the drive letter you want. However it sounds as if PocketDOS / XT-CE is not returning a file status correctly. In this event a bug report will be necessary. "The Undocumented PC" comes with a program that can show the results of DOS functions calls made during a session. The following is GENERAL troubleshooting advice. wp /nk "Disables enhanced keyboard calls ..." "This option is especially useful if you are having trouble getting WordPerfect to start up ..." wp /nf "Must be used with some compatibles and windowing systems..." "... if screen goes blank from time to time." wp /nc "Disables Cursor Speed and Alt Key Selects Pull Down Menu features." For TSR conflict.

Hi Nathalie & group - AFAIK - there's no way for the LX to measure the card battery voltage. It can only report a low/OK signal from the card. The LX internal ADC is only set to measure the main and backup batteries. Probably the only way to be safe is to replace the SRAM card battery every year.

We remove images, colors, Java, Javascript, embedded files, and tables. Images are replaced with their alt tags. Images and image maps that are links are replaced with their alt tag and if they do not have an alt tag, we use a * or the URL of the link depending on the situation. The purpose of this is to allow better access to sites that have content which may cause problems for a handheld browser or cannot be viewed very well on the handheld. Of course there are tradeoffs, but there are times our service can give better access to information on a web site. With this said, I can direct you to different configurations. Some keep color, images, and tables. Try these out and see which works the best. In all of them, Java and Javascript are removed. Take your HP and go to each of these start pages and see which one seems to be best for you: http://www.digitalpaths.net/wince/pie10.htm (text only, no tables) http://www.digitalpaths.net/wince/pie11.htm (text only, tables, color) http://www.digitalpaths.net/wince/pie20.htm (images, text, tables, color) Let me know if one of these is better than the current configuration, and I'll make the change.

So please would you contact them and ask if they can make it work? They will ask you to visit the www.digitalpath.net site and then to tell them _when_ you did this. Then they will look in their logs in order to see how the browser identifies itself. After that procedure, they can make it work. Please mention that the nettamer also runs on the HP 200LX, as WWW/LX / HV does, then they should know how to setup their service.

It sounds > intriguing. It's very simple: You go on the digitalpaths gateway site www.digitalpath.net (not www.digitalpaths.com, that's their homepage!) and then you get a form where you can enter the URL of the page you want to see. Then you only have to 'click' the access button, and digitalpaths forwards the requested website to your browser, without all these bells and whistles which most of the websites have. Read my other posting about what the digitalpaths service does exactly. By now it only works with WWW/LX / HV, but maybe it's also possible to use it with other browsers soon. I think it is in progress to make it work with nettamer, and if there's anyone using another browser, please contact the digitalpaths support at support@digitalpaths.com .

Are you sure it's the curly bracket and not the "Greater Than" angle bracket? I use Post/LX, and your post reads OK. The angle bracket is the mark for quoted lines, and you turn qouted lines on or off with the Q key. Try that and see if they reappear.

APL was widely taught in the late 60s and early 70s, but now is used mostly by a shrinking (if you believe SIG membership figures) population of people who like to use vectors and matricies in their problem formulations. If you think that way it is a very nice language, and versions of Manuguistics/STSC APL run quite nicely on the 200, though the characterset is quite off-putting to novices. Iverson himself continued to develop the language, and now has produced (with Roger Hui and others) the `J' language which, while it looks quite different physically, is a very productive follow on to APL. The early public domain versions of J run quite well on the 200, but are too early (for my taste) to be of much use. Patrick West wrote: > > Folks, > What is APL? A programming language?

I had always assumed that they were DGPS, since they demonstrate much better than 100-meter accuracy while navigating. However, as I studied what it was telling me, it became apparent that they use software to correct for the errors instead. When I would first start driving, the little triangle indicating my car might be off away from a road. After a short while (less than a minute), it would jump exactly onto the road. When I would come to a red light and stop, the indicator would be on the road, but might be in the wrong position on the road, such as past the intersection I'm sitting in front of. After I made a turn, it was off the road again, and then in a few seconds it would figure this out and would stay calibrated for the rest of my journey. So apparently it was figuring out that I was actually driving on the road, and compensated for its error. In order to do this, it has to have pretty exact road maps, including the locations of both sides of divided roads, and freeway entrance/exit ramps. But it had all this, and worked great. -- Curtis Cameron WGS-84 N33.033 W96.724 ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 26 Feb 2000 17:20:23 -0600 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Robert Hocking Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Robert Hocking Subject: Re: Displaying modem speed MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit > After you start WWW/LX and the local # is dialed there is a > short wait until it connects to the ISP.

This is the same type mentioned here by Jeff as well as being mentioned in the most recent Palmtop Paper. The documentation mentions an init string including w2s37=29. I believe the w2 tells the modem to display the connection speed. I don't know what the s37=29 does. Can anyone here explain it? I did find that my system does MUCH better if I change it to w2s37=28. With =29 on the end I could only connect about half of the time. When I tried =30 I couldn't connect at all. With =28 I haven't had any trouble. So, if you get one of these nice modems, be sure to adjust the init string if you have any trouble.

I guess it's related to the modem to which you are trying to connect. The Thaddeus modem is a great little modem and by purchasing it you can use it with notebooks also. It's a win-win situation!

My first `Neverlost Hertz' was rented at Christmas more than two years ago, and it works pretty much as you describe, although discussions in sci.geo-satellite.nav year or two ago would indicate that there is also some feedback to the `position computation' from the physical movement of the car (i.e. the unit `knows' when the car is stopped---after all the wheels aren't moving). All in all, I was impressed enough with the capabilities of the `NeverLost' back then to buy my own first GPS, which has since been followed by lots of `enhancements'. All in all, my Hertz rental back in 97 or 98 proves to have been one of the most expensive (but also one of the most pleasant) in my history...

This is the same type mentioned here by Jeff as well as being mentioned in the most recent Palmtop Paper. The documentation mentions an init string including w2s37=29. I believe the w2 tells the modem to display the connection speed. I don't know what the s37=29 does. Can anyone here explain it? I did find that my system does MUCH better if I change it to w2s37=28. With =29 on the end I could only connect about half of the time. When I tried =30 I couldn't connect at all. With =28 I haven't had any trouble. So, if you get one of these nice modems, be sure to adjust the init string if you have any trouble.

The 40 character version precludes use of any full screen quad functions. Jim Weigang offers something called APL Notes for about $25., It includes a tutorial manual, the version 10 interpreter, and some cool utils, including a full screen step thru debugger, a good graphics workspace, etc. I've been meaning to purchase it for a while now, just to get the graphics ws and the debugger. check out the APL FAQ or comp.lang.apl. The 200lx manual says that if you have a *.fon file, you can use keybez to load it. I've tried to load the various APL.fon files, but it hasn't worked out. If I can figure it out then I'll be able to use the zoom key on the 200LX.

I say "kind of virtual memory" because a 64K limit is still imposed on each object. I've often thought that if I had a 200k disk cache above the dos5 640k limit, and had that feed into an EMM on disk emulator on my flash card, I'd have 80 percent of the throughput of real EMS, and I could have it up to 15 or 20 MB.

Bit 4-7 - Reserved and: Fn Select Line Modulation This command selects the line modulation according to the parameter supplied. The line modulation is fixed unless automode is selected. This command interacts with the S37 and the "N" command. The parameter value, if valid, is written to S37 bit 0-3. To select line modulation, it is recommended that either the "F" command, or a combination of the S37 and the "N" command, be used, but not both. F0 Selects auto-detect mode. Sets N1 and sets S31 bit 1. In this mode, the modem configures for auto mode operation. All connect speeds are possible according the remote modem's preference. The contents of S37 are ignored as is the sensed DTE speed. Default F1 Selects V.21 or Bell 103 according to the "B" setting as the only acceptable line speed resulting in a subsequent connection. Sets N0, sets S37 to 1, and clears S31 bit 1. This command is equivalent to the command string: ATN0S37=1. F2 Not supported (other products use this setting for 600 bps). F3 Selects V.23 as the only acceptable line modulation for a subsequent connection. Originator is at 75 bps and answerer is at 1200 bps. Sets N0, sets S37 to 7, and clears S31 bit 1. This command is equivalent to the command string: ATN0S37=7. F4 Selects V.22 1200 bps or Bell 212A according to the "B" command setting as the only acceptable line speed for a subsequent connection. Sets N0, sets S37 to 5, and clears S31 bit 1. This command is equivalent to the command string: ATN0S37=5. F5 Selects V.22bis as the only acceptable line modulation for a subsequent connection. Sets N0, sets S37 to 6, and clears S31 bit 1. This command is equivalent to the command string: ATN0S37=6. F6 Select V.32bis 4800 bps or V.32 4800 bps as the only acceptable line modulation for a subsequent connection. Sets N0, sets S37 to 8, and clears S31 bit 1. This command is equivalent to the command string: ATN0S37=8. F7 Selects V.32bis 7200 bps as the only acceptable line modulation for a subsequent connection. Sets N0, sets S37 to 12, and clears S31 bit 1. This command is equivalent to the command string: ATN0S37=12.

WP 5.1 on my 200LX always stalled at the title screen upon startup, until I tapped the spacebar a couple of times. The "/nk" switch eliminates that perfectly. And if I'm not mistaken, WP seems to run a bit faster! Now, do you have another magic switch for the WP 5.1 SPELLER.EXE?

Usually the DOS install disks are compressed in some manner. It may not be as simple as copying off a desired file. The latest version of DOS (PC DOS 7.0/2000, is a good example of this). > (3) Why would you expect this to `mess up' Windows 98? > And where are your running Win 98? > (4) Does this have anything to do with 200Lxs? The installation of DOS 5.0 on the palmtop is missing some normally provided DOS utilities. Many users obtain these missing utilities and copy them over to their palmtop. I don't see anything inappropriate about the post, contrary to your implication that it wasn't 200LX-related. Alas, I can't answer the specific original questions, apart from noting that I have since dedicated an old 486-based PC that we were about to discard to be exclusively a DOS machine here at work. It has both sizes of floppy disks, and allows me easy testing of DOS stuff. -Chris Lott -- ************************************************************************ R.

I am assuming you just want the files missing from the palmtop. If so, get EXPAND.EXE from your DOS 5.0 disk, give it the file name you are trying to get as the first argument (spell it just like it's found on the disk), and give the opened file name as the second argument. Example: EXPAND UNDELETE.EX_ UNDELETE.EXE (note the file extention). Of course, files must be in the same directory. Other extentions you might find on your disk: CO_ to COM, DL_ to DLL, IN_ to INI, TX_ to TXT, etc. I hope that answers your question. Domingo P.S.

Some software in the past assumed that drive A was a floppy and would not install on it. This is probably the reason the HP embedded AUTOEXEC.BAT in ROM has the Assign E: A:. The user manual also discusses this point in the chapter dedicated to installing DOS software. Avi The above is my own private opinion.

In all the compressed files, there is also a file to uncompress the rest of the files called, expand.exe, and it is not compressed. All you have to do is to have both the expand.exe file, and what ever else file you wish to decompress, or expand, in the same location, and run the expand command on that file. To learn how to use expand, just like any other dos command, type expand /?, this will display help on how to use the command. This is what is displayed for the help on expand: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Expands one or more compressed files. EXPAND Ýdrive:¨Ýpath¨filename ÝÝdrive1:¨Ýpath1¨filenameÝ ...¨¨ destination Ýdrive:¨Ýpath¨filename Specifies the location and/or name of a file or set of files to be expanded. You cannot use wildcards. destination Specifies the new location and/or name of an expanded file or set of files. Destination can be a drive letter and colon, directory name, filename, or combination. The destination can only be a filename if you have specified a single filename for the source filename parameter. To expand multiple files to a different directory and keep the original filenames, specify only a directory as the destination. --------------------------------------------------------------------- So basically all you need to do is type the command, space, source file, space, destination file. Example: expand sort.ex_ sort.exe I keep all the files that came with my DOS 5.0 disks, just like they came, compressed, and if I ever need a single file, expanding them is very easy. It would not make sense to expand them all, if only you need one single file.

What kind of disk? How do you read them on your 200? I _think_ Tony means a MS DOS 5.0 on a Diskette (the operating system on it.) I do not recall, but it may have taken 3 diskettes? > (2) `I want to extract some files ...' Extract? are they Zipped or do you simply mean > `copy' instead of `extract'? The distribution of MS DOS 5.0 was in a compressed format. I believe they managed somehow to squeeze 1.7MB on a hi-density diskette and it took some special program called EXTRACT to "unpack" the real program. The naming convention - from my unreliable memory of it - was something like SUBST.EX_ or such ... LATER::::::::::::: I just found some relevant info. My MSDOS manual explains about something called EXPAND, not EXTRACT. "Expand - Expands a compressed MS-DOS version 5.0 file. You can use htis command to retrieve one or more files from the installation or update disks that accompany MS-DOS version 5.0. There files are not usable unless you expand them." So that is one piece... Syntax: expand Ýdrive:¨Ýpath¨filename ÝÝdrive:¨Ýpath¨filenameÝ...¨¨ destination Destination is where on disk you want the file. "Note: Most of the file on the installation or update disk provided with MS-DOS version 5.0 are compressed. Wach of these compressed files has a file extension that ends with and underscore character (_). When you installed MS-DOS, you ran the Setup program, which expanded thses files before copying them to your system. However, if you need to retrieve just one or a few of these files from the original didks, you can use the expand command." (Ueahh... I remembered some of this... :) ...) Example: expand a:\sort.ex_ c:\dos50\sort.exe > (3) Why would you expect this to `mess up' Windows 98? And where are your running Win 98? I have no guess on this one. I speculate that he worries about runing the SETUP.EXE which is on that diskette. Perhaps he worries that that will somehow unload MS DOS 5.0 on top of Win 98 and maybe mess things up. (Privately, I think overlaying Win98 with DOS 5.0 is an _improvement_ - but that is just a private opinion :-) ...) > (4) Does this have anything to do with 200Lxs? This is the best place for information even on unrelated items :-) Maybe he is trying to extract some relevant programs, such as SORT, SUBST etc.? I dunno...

Our company owns a Datalight ROM-DOS license, which we use to put into embedded producs we sell.

The OG700LX is actually pretty much the same as the 200LX, but with a cell phone docking cradle added on and some other interesting things like data LEDs on the front, a built-in PCS datacard, and some new software. Anyway, it uses the same DOS as the 200LX does; I don't see any differences. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 29 Feb 2000 23:58:13 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , lloo@WORLDNET.ATT.NET Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Longden Loo Subject: Re: Fwd: Wanterd: 50 to 100 1000CX 1 meg. >> Wow this guy really needs a lot of backupunits :-)) Found this in Message-Id: <20000301045820.PHGT15509.mtiwmhc27.worldnet.att.net@Ý12.72.154.236¨> Date: Wed, 1 Mar 2000 04:58:25 +0000 >Someone should tell HP about all this.

It may be that profit margins and support issues make the WinCE units more attractive in terms of marketing. Killing off the 200LX may just have been figuratively like the execution of the czar in the Russian revolution... so that there'd be no turning back. - Longden (whose 200LX always brightens when someone says "Anastasia") ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml
