Yes, that's what Daniel or Domingo said, and it makes sense. So how to make sure that visitors can get the most uptodate software? David Sargeant and I are communicating now to see if we can solve this to give the visitors both: their familiar URL _and_ fresh software versions.

I just joined HPLX again, so I am replying directly. I have an email from David Sargeant, and he seems to be interested in going to direct links to D&A sites, now that he is maintaining the site. He raised a good issue and I think we may be able to resolve this. We'll have to wait a bit more time.

My OS (in this instance) is Win95.. I believe a Win or Dos solution will work.. Do you know of software that will rename a directory full of files from upper to lower case filenames? I am building my website site using deltapoint software and everything is good except when the software converts *.dbf files to *.htm's, the filenames all come up in CAPS and my isp server is case-sensitive. I manually rename them and everything is good, but this is too time-consuming for me as I'm adding and updating often. The deltapoint people are apparently out-of-business, no website now and no replies to my requests for assistance. BTW I bought this software (nib-sealed) a few months back from an ebay re-seller, sent in the reg card and it came back as undeliverable. The product is good excepting this one small flaw. I have many hours invested with this product and would really rather avoid trashing my site and starting over.. Please help.

Within the span of thirty minutes I had the first part of next week organized for a really hair raising project. I won't bore you with the project details; this is not why I am writing this. I just feel that I should share my feeling on any really useful software I discover. This one such software package! I found the interface intuitive and very simple to use for the level of complexity it offers. What took about 30 minutes would have take me hours with my other project organizer. For anyone in need of organizing ones thoughts, projects, etc, I don't' think you can come up with a better way to do it. Coupled with the ability to link to other MM files, add notes, link to spreadsheets by employing PNS, this is going to be a fun and accurate way to get my jobs organized. My advice is download it and give it a try. I believe you will like this program!! Take care, William E. Blankenship P.S. Avi, Andreas, I hope you are reading this!! Keep up the great work!

Daniel is a nice guy who insists he is Canadian and has a heavy German accent. He asks Avi, "Vat sims to be ze problem?"

My all-time favorite utility for this purpose is ZtreeWin. It's an excellent implementation based on the original XtreeGold model of file management with text mode display. It is very easy to select any number of files, tag them for operation, and using the Rename command (), change the case of the entire set. You can download this shareware from http://www.ztree.com/html/ztreewin.htm. Highly recommended and well worth the registration price (US$ 30).

The basic features that I experimented with on Sunday morning and after reading your web page explaination of key features, explained in some detail, convinced me that this software is exactly what I need. > I was wondering if his snap decisions take a millionth of a > second!? No, just about 30 minutes. After a little experimentation and reading the web page I came to a rather prompt decision . With a little more experimentation using the basic features, I realized that I had created the exact organization map I needed for the complex project requiring resources and personnel coordination. I have been fighting with another project organization package for three days. MM/LX accomplished what I needed to pull it all together in an astonishingly short period of time. The graphical pruning of the branches and the ability to append them to other branches greatly simplified things. Now I have the optimum plan to pull things together for this phase of the operation. I made the presentation, ahead of schedule, this morning and won my case.

It is taken from old old comic depiction of World War II movines, which satirized Nazi interrogators interrogating Allied captured soldiers. It has the images of torture, flood lights in the face, and the threats ("we have ways to make to talk!") of bodily harm if no cooperation comes forth.

Yes I do ;-) It might be overkill, but Windows Commander will take care of your problem with a press of a button. Windows Commander is a Windoze clone of Norton Commander which takes care of all your filehandling needs. I consider it a "must have" You can find it at http://wwww.ghisler.com Among other things it has a "Multi-Rename tool" - Go to the desired directory - Mark all files - invoke multi-Rename - choose case All lowercase / All UPPER / First letter upper / First of each word = upper - and it's done You can also rename files with Search/Replace or manipulate the names in almost any way you could think of. Windows Commander can also synchronize directories and supplies a "parallel port server for DOS" So if you have a parallel port card for your 200LX you can use Windows Commander to synchronize your 200LX and Desktop with an "Interlink/Laplink parallel cable" I do it all the time ;-) Have fun...

And, there was an old "Carol Burnett Show" skit, w/ Tim Conway and Harvey Corman (sp?), where they were so satirical they kept making each other fall down laughing..... Part of the skit, was "we haf vays of making you remember..... What are those ways....?" And Another one of the guys would launch in w/ "We have ways of making you remember...." (spelled better this time for anyone using translation software), and then he "forgets" the ways to make you remember, etc. The Carol Burnett Show was wonderful, they let Tim and Harvey "play" and have fun as actors, and they left in many of the parts when they would make each other laugh, etc. I don't know if it was on purpose, filmed in front of a live audience, or what. But I enjoyed the show. If they do overdubbed reruns in Germany, I strongly recommend the show (that was only one bit, and they might not replay THAT episode, but they had many funny ones). Anyway, enough "off topic" from me. Happy "4th of July" to those on this side of the pond, who celebrate it (my British friends used to kid me and say their celebration was on the 5th of July, to celebrate finally being rid of us ; so you see I understand the multinational impact of this one!).

During WW2 and after there were a lot of films which portrayed Germans as comical figures. Buffoons. Not to be taken seriously. As people who tried to be menacing but just can't quite make it work. That was probably a moral building technique during the war and after the war it probably was still funny out of habit. As late as the 60s and 70s movies were still using that kind of humor regularly. The movie "The Great Race" is an example. Rowan and Martin's "Laugh In" had a lot of jokes based on it. "Hogan's Heros" was based almost entirely on that kind of humor. When you break it down there isn't actually anything funny happening in that joke. It's the way it's said but mostly it borrows from that old feeling which is still a small part of American culture and maybe other culture's as well. We're just used to laughing at it.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Folks, this is probably completely dream country, but would it be possible to create a program to run on the 200LX and detect the presence of a human via the IrDa port? Perhaps I should explain: I spend a lot of time living in hotels, and use my LX as an alarm clock. Since I have a bit of a problem waking up, I have it set to go off several times each morning. This is probably tough on batteries, not to mention the speaker. My weird idea was that IF Infra-Red from a human body could be detected by the IrDa port, the LX could be placed beside my bed, with the IrDa pointing at me. In the morning, a program would be invoked which would check and store the IR level, then sound the alarm. It would then keep checking the IR level. If there was no change, i.e. I'm still in bed, sound the alarm again, and so on until I get up and the IR level drops. Sounds pretty stupid now I've written it, but is it feasible?

In general, your question isn't that stupid ;-) But it is not possible. Why? Because all signals which go from the infrared diode to the serial port of the processor of the LX pass several steps to get quantized and decoded. The heat a human body sends out is definitely not enough to trigger the comparator of the IR port which decides if the signal received is "low" or "high". So for the palmtop there is no difference at all. Try it yourself: Start Stefan Peichl's "RING.COM", press enter to go into debug mode, and then move your hands or qanother comparable heat source in front of the IR port. You will probably not get any output. If you get, you probably have a mobile phone lying around near the palmtop ;-) If you want to see more details of the electronics responsible for that behaviour, see http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/emi It COULD maybe made possible if you changed a few resistors to make the IrDA port much more sensitive. But then it would probably be totally useless for any communication purpose. You could then write a software which simply checks if the I/O port which is connected to the IrDA port is high or low and with that information control your alarm clock. But another difficulty could be that if you are covered by a blanket, the heat rays are blocked and thus your alarm clock may think you are already awake and showering. ;-) GTX daniel -- Daniel.Hertrich@gmx.de phone: +49 177 7955549 Celia.Hertrich@gmx.de phone: +49 177 8616031 fax & voice mail: +49 721 151399479 http://www.daniel-hertrich.de ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 6 Jul 2001 15:36:27 -0400 Reply-To: Ed Padin Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Ed Padin Subject: Re: Network Adapters In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit The card having the most success on the 200lx is the Accton card.

A Sonalert(sp?) is a separate hardware beeper that can be VERY load (if the LX can source enough current to drive it). It's been a while since I've seen a Sonalert but I remember them being about the size of a walnut or maybe a bit bigger.

Great > security measure, but it used up the batteries too fast :-) An IR diode is very power hungry. So if it has to send all the time in order to detect, if the _reflection_ changes, it is very battery-intensive. But that could really be a possibility. Maybe one could build an external IR sending device which sends enough IR to trigger the palmtop's receiver high, even by reflection. But in that case it could be react to every movement of the sleeping person and thus not be very reliable.

Login and password in the WWWSETUP. Since you can access with the 800 number, then you can compare the setup between the two, and make the local number acees identical. I have an ISP that now has two networks: In one I just enter my login and password, and I am in. The other network requires a DIFFERENT login: Specifically, that I add "@ISPXXX" right after the login. Password is the same. They use someone else's phone numbers to extend their own network - so you have to tell the owner of that network that you are a customer of ISPXXX. Then they take the login and password and connect you with ISPXXX. If that connection takes, you are connected through. I do not know that AT&T does that for local numbers in your area. But it is worth checking with AT&T if the login should have some format different than what you expect it to be. Avi M.

The most significant thing this one adds is the ability to create LX ADB (appointment) files taken from data in Outlook's Calendar and Tasks folders. There are a couple of issues with recurring items being different in Outlook, as well as shortcomings in Outlook, so read the ReadMe.txt file. Like the last version, this one allows access to password-protected LX files. A couple of bug fixes: * It should now correctly convert extended characters between the LX and Windows environments, for both PDB/GDB and ADB files. * When converting into Outlook's Contacts, it should correctly modify existing contacts instead of adding new ones if that's what you specify. Since creating ADB files is a new thing, I've made it so that it won't modify an existing ADB file with new data, but will always create a whole file from Outlook data. Be careful - the "destination" file you create will be overwritten if it already exists. You can download it from http://members.aol.com/freewhl44/lxgames.html As always, you can direct feedback to me at this e-mail address. -- Curtis Cameron ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2001 10:40:33 +0200 Reply-To: furlan@gmx.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Dr. Werner Furlan" Organization: OE9FWV Subject: pdf on the Palmtop MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT hi, is it possible to view a pdf-file on the palmtop?

There are lots of possibilities in the chosen order process to get screwed up. If you send a friendly e-mail to Avi he will respond - for sure. After all it's his business.

Our fax service did not function properly all of last week and delivered only 2 faxes all week! The Fax servie provider finally resolved their problems on Saturday sometime, and a flood of faxes came in Saturday and Sunday. They are being processed as I write this! I checked, and your order is among the faxes too! It actually arrived Jul 4 at 16:22, but not to us until some time Saturday or Sunday. There are two problems with your order: 1. Expiration date is unclear, please email it to us at any of emails below or post here if you prefer. (Just the expiration date, please!) register@dasoft.com register@alwaysafe.com info@dasoft.com support@dasoft.com 2. You mentioned in your post about MAIL delivery of SW. FYI, we DO NOT deliver SW by MAIL (exception: Magnify/LX). ALL OUR SW is delivered by email, or download / registration. I will hold your order because of expiration date, but kindly also tell us if you want mail delivery or via email. If by mail, I will have to add additional costs for shipping and handling. (BTW, The main reason we started delivery by email and downloads were the HUGE LOUD SCREAMS of our German customers, who sometimes had to pay customs fees as high as TWO TIMES of the price of the SW! If we send this order to you via MAIL - you will likely be subject to the such fees!) I am truly sorry with your disappointment with our service. If I had the ability to peek into the files of the fax provider and find your order and email address, I would have told you (but then I'd already have the order!) But even the provider had no such access - they were really down! Hard! As you understand, there was no way to guess you sent an order. However, in the future, you may find it easier to email to us and ask (see email addresses above). It beats getting frustrated not knowing. Last point: If you worry about credit cards going through email, I am told by the experts that fax is not much safer. That is why we utilize a fax service, hopefully they have better security than I can provide on regular land lines. To enhance the process, we set up a SECOND email address on another ISP (register@alwaysafe.com). You may email the order in the future, with half the credit card number on the form, and the other half (with your name please!) to the other email address. This makes it awfully hard for hackers to spy on, and intercept a working credit card number. I am told by experts that this method is very good. For the convenience of our customers, I added this information to the main page of www.dasoft.com. All the best!

Having traveled for business and now with a kid, it is essential that I remember what to pack AND what not to pack. The 200LX is great for this. I used to keep a entry in NoteTaker with a long list in the note section. This was okay, but it was hard to see everything and meant a lot of scrolling around. Now I think I've hit on a better solution. I've copied my checklist out of NoteTaker and into a text file I can open in PALEdit. From there I set up each suitcase/object I need to pack as a level 1 heading. Under each heading, using +(, I list what should be packed. For example: +(Fanny Pack -sunglasses -wallet -money +(Suitcase -swim suit -socks +(Kit Bag -toothbrush -comb -aspirin After a thing is packed, I change the "-" to a "+". Then I press CTRL+C, enter a "-", tab to "Using Records," use the default "+(" as the record delimiter, and press "OK." (This should probably be a macro.) Now only the things that haven't been packed show. The entries that have a "+" are "hidden" and I can see at a glance what I still need to pack. This still isn't perfect. If I expand a suitcase that has items checked off, those items are no longer hidden and I have to re-enter outline mode to refresh the view. I also tried importing the file into MM/LX and it worked great. Mind Map also has a "check-off" feature that allows you to do the same thing and, of course, has an even more visual display.

Thanks! No, the LX's DOS 5 is in ROM and it can't be changed. Also you can't boot another OS via the pcmcia card. However, I've never seen much advantage to DOS releases after 5. They might offer some additional utilities but they don't offer any basic functions that don't exist in 5. Is there something in particular that you're looking for? Cheers...

By now you know the reason. See my post to Axel. I do not wait for credit cards to clear, this is only with checks. The credit card process isdual: Send the request to the card issuing bank for authorization. If ok, then this transaction moves money from the bank to the credit card clearing company. The second process (I do them back to back) is called settlement, when I claim the money at the clearing company. They then take three days (usually 2-3) to credit my account at my bank. As soon as the settlement is done, I send the emails. That is a requirement by the credit card companies, that the merchant does not sit on the customer's money, but send the good immediately when paid. I have a single process: Enter the order, check it, create a credit card processing file (my transaction file), call the credit card company, and submit the file - they authorize the transactions one by one (from my machine to them, they check again, send an inquiry to the issuing bank, get ok or negative (with a reason why not), and the money is transferred to them, and then they repeat - all this takes about 3-5 seconds, regardless where the issuing bank is - amazingly fast!) Then I get a report of any errors, status, or declines. The second step is another call to credit card company - another computer, to settle. Same transaction file (only the ok transactions) go to them, and they process my "claim" to the funds, and I get a report on the settlemnts. (Settlements take about 3 seconds each). I markd then the database as paid (or not, in some cases). I print my own report from the Palmtop. Then I do the email part, which includes generating the keys, the emails, and the letters. I use the GDB for much of that process. Then I email the stuff. 2-3 days later the money shows up in the bank account. Once the transaction is authorized (first part) it means that your bank think you have the money in the account, takes it out (or in some cases, posts a transaction for nightly runs and suspends that amount of money from your account i.e. xxxxx is the balance, but xxxxx-79 is available!) and that means the transaction is successful, and I can send the stuff. The second process is needed to send the money to the bank account. In some cases I have only authorized the payments (which I can do over the phone), sent the stuff out, and settled much much later. Oh, well, enough of this business education ... ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2001 15:00:39 -0800 Reply-To: sponsor@FTEL.NET Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Avi Meshar Subject: Re: Check Lists Comments: To: Donald Puscher MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Donald Puscher wrote: > I'm a firm believer in packing check-lists.

A customer suggested using MM/LX as a menu to run programs! I keep simple lists in a PE text file. Shopping list for example. It gets modified before I go to the store each time, items added or subtracted. Packing lists I used to keep in a text file, but I think I'll try MM/LX now (thanks to you! ) because I have a 10 day trip coming up in mid-July. I'll put items in categories, and the children of the categories items will be the individual items to take. I like this! Thank you.

The texas instruments eproms I'm looking for are: tms2564jl-45 tms2564-35jl tms2564jl tms 27128jl-25 I am not very familiar with ICs but found out several things. Feel free to butt-in if I'm wrong somewhere. 1. The first 3 items are identical except they run in different speeds. I assume the speed is important (I found all three types of eprom on one PCBoard) and hence all three, I surmise, are not interchangeable. 2. For the last item, I found something similar but not identical. I found someone selling 27c128jl-25 (with the letter c added). I can't remember on top of my head if its unbranded or a brand I'm just not familiar. I am told this stands for cmos and should be compatible but costs more than the original. Is this true? I will check out Digikeys and Jameco. Guys, maybe its better if we take this off list and continue thru private email to lessen the noise ratio. TIA and to everyone for their patience.

All I need is model numbers so I can research. thanks. I think you're going to have a problem with the PCMCIA form factor. Not too many digicams that I know of supports that, or at least it's not common anymore. This is my favorite side-by-side camera comparison site, http://photo.askey.net/ It also has a "Buying Guide" feature that lets you specify search criteria for the camera (ie, PCMCIA storage), but it only turned up 15 large cameras (most quite expensive). At one time, Ricoh made a smaller (and cheaper) camera that used PCMCIA. eBay has one listed (RDC-2): item #1252718748 but it's only 1/2 megapixel.

I might look into that. Any idea if the old SXs are still avalible anywhere?

Have one, built the cable, etc, etc... I've never had decent connection reliability with CDPD. I tried my Minstrel V with both my Palm and laptop, and while it "worked" in the not-broken sense, I was almost always just about ready to throw it at a wall. It seemed to require over 2x the signal strength of a cell to fuction, and even walking between two tall buildings in the SF -Financial- -District- would play with it's little head.

But that's just a guess, as i haven't tried either. True. But it's a nifty package, you'll have to admit. I'd be interested in a 700lx just for collector's value even if I decide not to use it as my mail unit. I've found one in Britan that I can get for about $250 (without the phone) if his Japenese buyer doesn't come through by Friday. We'll see on that one. It looks like I may not be able to do exactly what I'd hoped to, but I'll continue to explore my options. Thanks for your help!

They don't list max draw for their Ricochet card. Novatel lists max draw for their Rico card as 768 mA which isn't -so- much more. Anyone know what the max burst power the HPLX can give is? Any chance the Novatel card would work? If there's a chance I'll go buy one and try it out. Anyone tried it and know for certain if it works or not?

I've been trying to solve the same problem. For a while I've been using the serial cable to connect my 200lx to my Mitsubishi T250 cell phone, which has a built in CDPD modem. (Actually I cut both the serial cable for the 200lx and the serial cable for the T250 down to about two inches in length so that I wouldn't have to carry 7 feet of cable, and also to obviate the need for a null-modem converter and a couple of gender changers. The T250 cable has some electronics embedded in its serial port connector, so I had to cut off the phone-side connector and then re-soldered the wires onto its pins. If you've ever seen the connector for the T250, you'll realize what a challenge this is. My wife has forbidden me from soldering for a few weeks -- it took me two days and I burned my fingers, but now I'm much better at fine soldering!) More recently, after a long search, I found someone who would sell me (at a high price) a used Motorola PM100C CDPD modem. This is a PCMCIA card but it draws its power not from the palmtop but from a standard 9-volt alkaline battery that sits in a small plastic pocket just to the outside of the palmtop. This I think is the smallest possible option, and it doesn't require any cables. Unfortunately, the modem has been discontinued. I believe there was also a company called Tellus that manufactured a similar modem called Monarch, and Uniden made one called Data 2000. Both have been discontinued. Be careful though not to buy a similar looking wireless modem for the "Bell South Intelligent Wireless Network", as that is not a native TCP/IP network -- examples include the Megahertz AllPoints modem and the Motorola PM100D. (Both also discontinued, I think.) You might also want to consider just using a cell phone to dial up your ISP. One of the annoying features of CDPD is that the first-hop round-trip latency is at least .5 seconds when sending a 40-byte ICMP echo request packet (measured on a Novatel Sage), so if you want to use it to log in to a Unix server you are in for some pretty painful typing. I've been using the pppd packet driver on the 200lx and find that when I ping another machine using the T250 the round-trip time is even worse (1.3 seconds). It could be that the difference is due in part to the size of the packet (which I can't easily change, and don't know), but in any case when I log in using sshdos I generally cannot type very many characters before the connection hangs. As far as I can tell, this is due to this high latency and timeouts in WATTCP's implementation of TCP/IP. The phone itself seems to have a reliable CDPD connection, and sshdos works fine using a landline modem. But it's hard to diagnose these things. I don't think you'll see this same latency if you dial up with a celluar-ready modem and a cell phone. (My T250, however, doesn't seem to be cable of doing this.)

Not sure what is the reason. I then load the document in Acrobat Reader 4.0, and found that it is possible to copy and paste the contents into either a text file or Excel, but all the various columns are appended into one long column. Seems like it would be easier to use Excel: cut-and-paste the sections into new columns, and finally save it as a csv file, ready for conversion to LX database.

I am key account manager and have to deal daily with people you mentioned in your message. I use MM/LX with great pleasure as it makes daily life more convenient: when meetings will be prepared during meetings and this is an important point for me what happens next? How can I make all the information available to the involved people. This is where an additional strength of MM/LX comes in. MM/LX allows multimaps in one file. as well as links to other mindmaps, including title selection of the linked map. Thus I export the relevant maps using a few keystrokes Ctrl-P or and email them hot and up-to-date to my colleagues. Ctrl-P of a "Multimap in one File" creates *one* html file containing the information in an attractiv everywhere readable format using Netscape or MSIE browsers. In the past I created one mindmaps for one major topic. As a result of this I had to convert all related mindmaps to html, which is well supported from th command line using a batch file, provided by Tony Hutchins. Tony, thank you very much for your help. tohtml.bat for %%i in ( %1 ) do :\mm.exe -h %%i My mm files reached a size of 15KB. MM/LX works very fast. Alt-T displays the relevant information of large maps. For repeated tasks and meetings I use Ctrl-T, which helps to strucure information in an easy way and fast. Up to now I am using only a few functions ALT-T, CTRL-T, Cut and Paste providing full control on items and branches and CTRL-P for export. So learning how to use didn't take me long time. I wonder, why this tool wasn't requested earlier. Great tool for the daily use!

Unfortunately outliner-type programs have a long history of incompatibility with each other (lack of standards due to lack of popularity for the input format), so I don't foresee much hope for the above. Palm outliners and a mindmap type of program I saw at Palmgear are incompatible with each other. So are the Windows outliners and mindmap programs that I have tested. The only thing close to a standard for documents that I have seen across platforms is html. Every device I have seen has a way to read standard html easily (though I have yet to see an easy way to write it outside of Windows). Guess how many people do their daily work in that format . . .

Yes, I received the reg data. Thanks alot! MM/LX is really a very powerful program. I'll first use it to take notes in meetings and lectures to learn how to use it fast and effective. After that I'll extend the functionality for me to organize all my notes from note taker and so on. May I ask how many orders you have got for MM/LX?

That's a good idea! And you could make it even more easy (at least under Linux - don't know if it is also possible in a Windows environment): You could simply install something like a printr driver which creates a PCX file or something which can easily be converted into PCX and print the PDF to that filter.

One thought I had, which would probably make the program too complex, was to allow multiple "parents" to have the same "child". Sometimes the "logic" of the material being entered into MM/LX has this characteristic. The very first thing I tried to use MM/LX for (and it was a success, despite the above limitation) was to document a user interface menu flow on a small embedded consumer electronics device I was writing software for. What had previously taken me one crowded B-size page (that's 11x17 inches, or 28x43 cm for the metrically inclinded) of flow charts and several A-size pages (1/2 of a B sheet, normal 8-1/2x11) of accompanying notes. I was able to clearly express the menu flow on a single MM/LX file/map. I only wish I had had the program *before* I started the project, and it would have saved me some time and effort. As it was, I basically did it after the fact to both document the menu in an electronic format, and as a test to help me learn the program. -Chris Lott -- ************************************************************************ R.

Maybe I will find an answer later. Anyway an interesting aspect. Still thinking, if I could simulate two parents > one child the same way as I do m:n relations within database applications using a detour? Give me some time. The purpose for what you used MM/LX makes great sense to me. Using a mindmap to get an idea what the problem is about and get it structured. And the nice thing for me is to be able to have this on a go everywhere. My main map, which is defined within mm.cfg looks like an index to start &business &privat &vacations &hp200lx .. And whenever I get an idea, one keystroke takes me to the appropriate linked map. Thanks for your contribution.

I didn't suffer from any short comings of MM/LX so = far. > I think it is well implemented on the hp200lx with its technical > restrictions One of the interesting things I noticed about Mm/LX is that it is a mind expander. First you think of two-three uses, and it is good for them. Then another idea pops. then three more pop, then 10 more pop into your mind, and you don't even have time to write them down. Then it is a blur .... It is sort of exponential, explosive growth, which (at least my) the brain seems to love! Several people commented on the same process. Eventually you settle on some number of maps, and ideas and it is quite sweet. Yesterday I wrote to a friend who has not tried MM/LX and as an example took the project she is involved in now, setting up he vacation condo. In about 5 minutes, I had an elaborate mindmap, with examples, pictures, the works. This was just to explain to her what this is about. If anyone looked the "Lunch mindmap tutorial" I put on the Webpage, you should know it took about 2-3 minutes to put together, because it was mimicking all the elements of how my mind was working, what I wanted to demonstrate, etc. Helmuth, your example mindmap is fabulous! It is like a "general store" - you can find in it ANYTHING you want. Quite a fabulous way to demonstrate MM/LX and its power. > But may I ask you how you use it? > > multimaps in one file? > do you use Crtl-T? > do you share your information? > how and with whom are you sharing it? > only results? > do you include notes?

I think the best way to make it happen is for MANY people to use it (buy it, too, please ) and find what they need, and bombard info@dasoft.com with email about it - A LOT!!! This tends to get attention because I take customer feedback into the Beta. Also, many of the beta participants hang out here: Hans Peter, Helmuth, Fred, Tony, Martin, ... who did I miss? And they take stuff like this into the beta too. the thing is this: Sometimes you just go along and get along just fine without some feature. Then someone wakes up and says "I need feature XYZ!". You check yourself, and realize you could double your productivity with such a feature! Suddenly you REALLY want this, because it would give you benefits you never thought of before! So post ideas, post needs, post requirements, so others can see them. Then if it pertains to you, send an email to info@dasoft.com. We added a large number of features to other software we have BECAUSE of customer feedback. In fact the beta serves this purpose as well - a bunch of nuty, demanding, ranting, lunatic customers in one small group who help Andreas to put together the product. If it was just up to him, the initial products would have a lot less features, since he would build what he needs, no more. But the Beta adds many many more ideas, and so by the time the product is released it has a large feature set, which makes many people oooh and aaaah. So you all can add to the features by using MM/LX, telling others about it, and posting your experiences and needs here, and then send email to info@dasoft.com. I promise at least to look at requirements, although I cannot promise that we will build EVERYTHING into the product. Thanks for the post and question! Avi M.

In one .MM file I have the "main" map and a couple of "subroutines", each with their own map. The "main" map does have the "subroutines" linked more than once (CTRL-M to link and then "#sub1" for example). I try to make the subroutines as big as possible to reduce the apparent complexity. CTRL-F9 takes me back to a drop down menu showing all the modules. Here, "sub1" may have many parents, at different levels, and yes, if "sub1" were represented only once on the screen, with links to all its parents, the screen would look very complex. - Tony ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2001 00:56:36 +0000 Reply-To: Russel Brooks Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Russel Brooks Subject: Re: memory full MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Longden Loo wrote: > > when I try & copy something on the C Disc it says memory full after a > ... > 3.

In my MM.CFG it is because my Palmtop specifies in the path also the directory where PE.EXE resides. So when I press F3, MM.EXE goes out looking for PE, and finds it on a directory which is specified in the PATH statement in my AUTOEXEC.BAT. If PE.EXE is NOT in a directory which is in the PATH, then all hope is not lost! Just specify this: İSystem¨ ... Editor=3DY:\XXXX\pe where Y is the drive, and XXXX is the directory name where PE.EXE resides. Now save MM.CFG, and try that F3 again.

In that idea, a child would become a clone of another and whatever changes made to the one, the other (the clone, or clones) would also acquire. Thus, two parents to "one" child. We found no way to implement it without breaking the underlying file text format.

The simplest solution would be simply to attach a mobile phone to the LX, either by data cable or by IrDA. For infirmation about that, read my homepage http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/mob_hplx There are PCMCIA cards which are mobile "phones" by themselves ("Nokia Card Phone", for example), but these won't work in the palmtop, because they need more power than the palmtop can provide.

Strangely they say the problem is in 200LX's Filer, which I don't believe, as ConnPack and X-finder work OK. Or maybe only the Xon/Xoff implementation is faulty with the HPL, but not the hardware handshake used by other (115kbps capable) software? But they sent me a modified DLL, which should address the problem as described below. My LX currently has a malfunctioning LCD screen, so I can do only some limited testing; if you need the DLL (55KB) write me. I will also upload later, if it definitely fixes the problem.

What is FUNGUS? I know that light destroys CD-Rs with time. A CD-R burner doesn'T burn these little depressions which represent the bits into the CD-Rs which are known from CD-ROMs, but they "burn" the metal surface black for each bit. This metal surface is like a photographical film: light blackens it with time. So keep your CD-Rs covered in their jewel-cases, best is to store them all in a closed box or in a closet. So the data is safe for many years. But it is recommended to copy sensitive data onto a new CD-R every few years. CF cards can hold the data as long as you want, they don't suffer from light or other influences. The life limitation they have is based on access cycles. AFAIK, about one milino access cycles for each data unit is guaranteed. But if you simply put the data onto the CF and don't access it anymore, it should be safe many, many years.

I haven't done any actual useful work with MM/LX yet, just played around and found out what's possible and what not, so I can decide what it is really useful for and what not.

Remove all the double-quotes from the note titles, remove categories etc. (only in each title line) 2. Add the line " Notes" as the first line of the file, don't leave away the three leading spaces but leave away the double-quotes. After that you should be able to open notes.mm with mm/lx!

A few years ago I posted something about mindmaps when the first Windows application first came out, I believe I suggested that Andreas try something with it. Maybe he took that hint? Either way (not to take false credit), one suggestion I have is that the zoom should allow for a bigger font, with paning. The biggest available seems too small for me to do work with it. For display pursoses even the smallest font is useful. The main reason I might not get this program which I really like, is the screen. I really need some kind of a backlight, and David S. is apparently no longer working on one. Little flash lights are not the same, though I have looked at Daniel's light project, and it looks interesting. But Daniel is no longer selling his lights (I would not touch a soldering iron if someone paid me. Well, maybe. :-) I find myself using my lx only for "real" work which requires a "real" computer with me all the time. For most casual purposes I use my Palm, not because it's better, but because I can see the screen in dim light (with the backlight). I have even comtemplated selling my lx, but I have not because there are certain things which can only be done with one. As I am getting a little older, I find my eyes can no longer struggle with the non backlit screen in dim light. I wish there was some good news from somewhere . . .

So whatever I've typed in up to that point will be lost, there's no way to cancel. The choice needs to be "Save/Abandon/Cancel".

Here is his answer: > One thought I had, which would probably make the program too complex, > was to allow multiple "parents" to have the same "child". Sometimes the > "logic" of the material being entered into MM/LX has this characteristic. Allowing multiple fathers is ethically questionable. but mostly, it is very difficult to handle algorithmically (what to cut if you cut? Delete if there is still a parent? how to place on screen? etc.). However, these problems only occur within a single mind map. Across multiple maps, it is no issue. So what can be done using MM/LX, is to set an item that has multiple parants as the center of a new map and link the "two parents" to that map (using Ctrl-M). Thereby, you get multiple inheritance, but not within a single map. Andreas ================ Thanks to Andreas.

Actually flash cards are safer than that. Repeated writes (not reads) do wear them out but wearing out means that writes get slower and slower until writes time out. Only the ability to write to it is harmed. They can still be read unless corruption occured during a failed write. The latest information from Sandisk that I've heard is that you can expect 4,000,000 writes. That was a couple of years ago and it may have been improved since then.

Mm/LX asks me if to save yes/no. I say no. It is not sure I am really sane enough to make that decision and asks if I am sure and presents me with a Save or Abandon choices.

No vote is also a vote, I think. I didn't say that the east Germany government was NOT an oxymoron ;-) I am from western Germany, and I was 13 years old when the Berlin wall fell. From that moment on I heard about all these eastern oxymorons. Germany still suffers from them. I don't know about other Countries in eastern Europe.

I added a work are, changed the size of another, and adjusted the size of the resource pool with help of the sizer.wk1 123 spreadsheet. Now when I start SC, the first switching into every work area is as fast as usual (about 3 seconds, I have the swap file on a sompletech 96MB CF card), but if I switch between already started work areas, it is terribly slow (about 7-10 sec).

PE isn't slower than normal, but it generally takes about 1-2 seconds to come up and if you frequently want to insert notes into your MM, this can be a little annoying. That's my personal opinion. And since a very simple editor should be fully sufficient for these notes, I'll look for one.

I thought the swap file wasn't recommended on a flash card due to slower writes compared to ram disk? I create a 4M block of expanded memory on my T2T 32M drive and tell SC to swap from there.

This is a very sad and disturbing story that such a thing was happening at the very same time that my niece, Emily, was going through it for real!! Emily died of leukemia on June 27th at the age of 9. Her fight with the disease and the tremendous support from her friends and family is cronicled on her web site journal and guestbook. Emily's father (my brother Dave) has told me that this web site, and the others like it (through Rainbow of Hope), are an invaluable support channel for the family of these very sick children. He does not know how he would have been able to be strong for Emily without the kind words and support that so many people gave on Emily's web site. I was not going to bring up this personal tragedy on this list, but since Nathalie mentioned the hoax story, I wanted to show that there really is such a thing as kids dying of leukemia and web sites to support them that are doing real positive things for the friends and families affected. And I would also like to thank everyone who has visited Emily's web site and posted their support in the guestbook. The book is still open and all visiters are encouraged to say something. Please follow the link to the LightTheNight organization for information about participating in thier nationwide evening walk to raise money for The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. www.caringbridge.com/page/emiann Thank you Emily's Uncle Stan ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2001 21:18:00 -0500 Reply-To: palmtop@n-link.com Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Tim Subject: Re: Fluff: Boy, Germans are strange!

Happy Bastille Day, or la Fjte de la Fidiration, whichever you celebrate. I am on vacation having a nice time in Northern California. Nice and quiet. The stock market was kind to the company I recently worked for when the value of its shares climbed up 18%+ per day in several days now. MM/LX can be credited with only part of it, the rest is politics in the International Olympic Cmte, granting Beijing the 2008 Olympiad :-( That will be a royal mess. You can barely move in the city in rush hours now. I cannot imagine more smog and more people trying to move between venues. Their plans are nice on paper, but the $20b they allocated will not scratch it much, besides, a large chunk of the mooney will line the pockets of some key people, not go to work. I am skeptical they can lift such a project in style. Maybe in the collective, communist style such as banning citizens from Beijing, and making their life miserable and hellish for several months, but that may not sit well with the visitors. We'll see. Maybe the Chinese masses should adopt the courage of the French back in 1789 and change the political system to their benefit.

Comments: To: furlan@gmx.net MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit I am a little confused about the requirement Curtis and Daniel brought and Werner agrees with. The limitation of the unregistered program is here to stay, let's not talk about it. Please just accept it like the limitations in WWW/LX Version 3 prior to registration. This keeps us in business, and you in good programs! So let's see: In your registered MM/LX you make changes to mindmap A. Then you want to load map B. Map A, with the changes, either must be saved, or not saved. If you want to save your work, press Save. If not, choose to abandon the changes you made - your choice. MM/LX must make room for Map B. The only issue is if the changes you made in Map A should be kept nor not. Just for a little mind exercise: What would be the meaning of "cancel"? - Would it cancel the save - that is covered by "abandon". - Would it cancel going to another map? There are two ways to do it: just decide between going there + AFTER saving your work (by pressing SAVE) or + without saving your work (choose Abandon) In any case, just return to Map A after Map B shows up again - press ESC for that.. I am questioninig if there is any other meaning to the CANCEL choice. I would love to understand this requirement. Thanks, Werner, Daniel, Curtis and others. This is a heck of good discussion!

What about Abandon and quit - this does the same! I think we are in semantics: Maybe Andreas should just replace the word "abandon" with "Cancel" - that seems to be what you want, and what Cameron talked about to begin with. Cancel means - do not save, and do whatever the command was: switch maps, or quit. (the same as what abandon is doing now.) > Maybe to be switched off and on in mm.cfg like this: > quit_without_cancel = 0ff / on I am unclear what _new_ function this will bring.

We are meaning the latter. Of course you could simply save the current map, let MM quit (or load another map, in your example) and go manually back to the first map. But that way has two disadvantages: 1. It is more work than necessary (for us, not for Andreas ;-) ). 2. It is dangerous: If you go upwards in the levels of your mind map and press ESC ONCE too often, it will ask "save" or "abandon". So you still have a way to save and return to the current map. If you press it TWICE too often, still no catastrophe, since you can save. If you press ESC three times too often, your map is lost forever. If ESC would not do an "abandon", but a "cancel", i.e. return to the previous dialog or screen, such things CANNOT happen. BTW, every standard program under Windows or DOS behaves that way. I don't want to say that MM/LX is a stadard program :-) But it should be "usage-compatible" to them, I think. Andreas designed PE exactly the same way first, but after some of us (me included) asked him to add a cancel button, he did it, and now I loose much less data than before. For me, such a cancel button would be important. > I am questioninig if there is any other meaning to the CANCEL > choice. I would love to understand this requirement. Of course, if you are always careful pressing keys and if you aren't used to that "ESC=cancel" stuff, you will be happy with the way MM/LX interprets ESC. But for me - and for others too, it seems - it is a little bit difficult. -- Daniel.Hertrich@gmx.de phone: +49 177 7955549 Celia.Hertrich@gmx.de phone: +49 177 8616031 fax & voice mail: +49 721 151399479 http://www.daniel-hertrich.de ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 15 Jul 2001 18:11:24 +0200 Reply-To: Daniel Hertrich Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Daniel Hertrich Subject: Re: MM/LX: Save/Abandon and Cancel, too?

Please don't! :-¨ It is something totally different! Abandon LEAVES MM without saving Cancel would go back into the current map (also without saving, of course). Please go to a Windows box (or DOS), start an editor, write something into it, and give the quit command. You will probably be asked if you want to save first. Now press ESC. The editor will probably go back into your text, and will NOT quit without saving. (PE now does it this way too). That is what I meant in my last mail. We are used to that behaviour, so it would be good if MM/LX would also behave that way. Did I explain well enough? If not, please let me know. TNX daniel P.S.: I just read about the suggestion Tony sent to Werner: The ESCquits=0 of course is a good prevention of quitting by accident, but it is still not the solution: If you say "menu""file""exit" and press ESC twice, data is still lost. If you make the above mentioned "editor exercise", you sill see that the data is still there. Don't get me wrong: I can live without a cancel button. But it simply would be nice if MM/LX would follow that quasi-standard. -- Daniel.Hertrich@gmx.de phone: +49 177 7955549 Celia.Hertrich@gmx.de phone: +49 177 8616031 fax & voice mail: +49 721 151399479 http://www.daniel-hertrich.de ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 15 Jul 2001 12:13:48 +0200 Reply-To: Ulrich Boche Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Ulrich Boche Subject: Re: Check Lists Comments: To: Donald Puscher MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii On Monday, 09.07.2001 at 21:07 GMT, Donald Puscher wrote: > I'm a firm believer in packing check-lists.

My thoughts exactly, except for one thing: the presentation of ideas for things other than lists in MM/LX is superior, in my opinion. I use HandyShopper as well for every kind of list, but for serious poking around with my brain the presentation style of MM/LX is compelling, IMO. There is a mindmapper program for the Palm, but it is primitive by comparison.

Please just accept it like the >limitations in WWW/LX Version 3 prior to registration. This >keeps us in business, and you in good programs! What I meant was that there should be three choices: 1. Save the file, go to new map. 2. Abandon changes, go to new map. 3. Cancel going to new map. Like Daniel said, this is the standard way for programs to work nowadays. With MM/LX, it's easy to hit ESC too many times, and having a "cancel" option, which would be selected by the ESC key, is the logical way for it to work. Though you don't want to talk about it, I'll bring up the evaluation period again. Please read this and consider what I'm saying, because I don't think you have been so far. When I was evaluating WW/LX (I've pruchased it now), I wanted to create a test map, and see how easy it was to navigate around and how useful it would be as a way of brainstorming ideas. So I entered twenty or so items, linked together in three or four branches. I wanted to keep this around for a couple of days to add items to it. Then I tried playing with a menu item to add a linked map, or something similar, and it prompted me to Save or Abandon. I knew that I couldn't save, and I didn't want to lose everything I had typed in, so I wanted to just cancel and get back to where I was, but that wasn't a choice, so I had to abandon and then later enter all that data again. If this weren't my own palmtop, I would have thrown it across the room, it was so frustrating. The only reason that I kept going past this point was that I felt I had a vested interest in the palmtop community. When someone evaluates your software, you want for them to learn to like it, not frustrate them. You want to get them hooked, almost dependent on your software, then make them pay to keep using it. It's OK to prevent saving files, but throwing away what progress they've made so far just because they hit a wrong key while trying to understand the utility is not the way to increase your orders. -- Curtis Cameron WGS-84 N33.033 W96.724 ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2001 07:53:48 +0200 Reply-To: Josef Meyer Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Josef Meyer Subject: Re: MM/LX: Save/Abandon and Cancel, too?

I totally agree with Daniel. Before I got my licence, I thought: well, this is a limitation of the unlicensed product I have to accept. But after my MM/LX was licenced, it happened several times to me by prssing "esc" that I changed my mind and I did neither want so save the map nor did want to give up my work, but I wanted to change or continue my open map. So the 'cancel' button is necessary saying 'I want to continue with the current map'. Like this there is still the same limitation for the unlicensed product, but it helps a lot to the fully functional MM/LX.

Psion is seeing its devices struggle to compete with rival machines running the Palm OS or Microsoft's Windows CE/Pocket PC operating system, and as a result they have restructured the company in what they describe as "a move up the value chain." "According to the reports the announcement effectively kills any plans to release a new Psion device with Bluetooth capabilities. David Levin, chief executive at Psion, says that "Bluetooth is late on the uptake and much smaller than anticipated." The market for Bluetooth devices has not grown as expected, but a Psion spokesperson says that the company may consider a return to the Bluetooth market if demand were to increase." "Psion maintains that the company will continue to support the current devices, and they also have plans to continue selling the current machines. A company spokesperson said that the company has no intention of leaving its consumers high and dry." Another article implied they were no longer manufacturing new machines but were selling off their inventory.

The graphite sprays I am aware of are lubricants, not paints, and would not work. If you wanted to experiment with graphite, I would spray a on dot of 3M spray adhesive (using a stencil-like mask), then dust on some powdered graphite (available for lubricating locks -- get the type without any solvent) and then carefully burnish the graphite smooth, using something like a hard plastic rod. The back end of a Bic pen might work, for example. I haven't tried this, but I know you can buy markers with conductive ink/paint, which are used for drawing circuit board traces. If applied thinly and carefully, this might work.

Saves having to disassemble and reassemble that tricky right hinge. Take the 8MB motherboard out of the broken LX and place it in the good LX. Install the 2MB motherboard in the broken LX and then pack it off to Thaddeus for a major overhaul. While removing the motherboard is not easy, it's got to be easier than that hinge.

What you (Martin and others) do not know is that I suggested in the beta a way to do exactly what the users asked for, but also accomplish D&A's goals. Mine was not the only one. So I am not in the "other" camp. But what I think we need here is to understand why you get into these "traps" to begin with, for example: Why is it so easy, or seems easy, for you to get into a link or quit without wanting to save? Is it something that is inherent in the command structure? Maybe it should change. Maybe there are other reasons. Also, when I say that we want to do what the customers want, do we really understand you? Do you really articulate clearly what it is that you want? Probably not, and it takes a bit of interaction to "get it" just right. And it may take one or two tries for us to "get it" just right too. I realize the impatience you (Martin) have, but that is just misplaced. Maybe we can come up with a better solution, much much better. Hammering on the vendor and putting me down is a waste of energy in this context. I appreciate the "vote", but probably it would be more useful to tell the reason behind your vote. Just because every programmer would get it is not a reason I can hang code on. Let me give you an example: Someone wrote a good reason in private. It was the loss of time in saving, linking, then returning to the original page. There are other potential problems with such an action, or? Anyway, my questions were perhaps "dumb" sounding, but I also do not want to influence Josef's feedback, or yours, should you decide to attach it to your vote. Avi M.

No big deal. I just did not think it was my place to post anyone's name, especially if they can post it themselves. The lesson was good to post for everyone.

It's on the card slot side of the back just under the left hinge. I wonder if this has anything to do with the loose screen? The screen is very loose through a small (less than 5 degrees) arc then seems to be fine. The left hinge seems to shift vertically by a fraction of a millimeter as I wiggle the screen.

Yes, you are right, it IS possible to do what I want. But please take anyhow our proposal and arguments (coming from Daniel, Curtis, many others) into considerations. We are working intuitively and straightforward and in my opinion (I am sure also other list member's) a 'cancel' button related with the 'esc' key is the intuitive way.

Graphite powder is often available in hardware stores, typically used for things like padlocks.

If you believe you removed the branch you just hid with Alt-H by using DEL, then i suggest that you hit the SAVE, and look again. Definition of DEL (from HELP): Will remove the highlighted item. Will promote its children. To do what you want, i.e. cut the branch: Use CTRL-X.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Avi; On a personal note, I appologize if I've beaten you up. Fact is, MM/LX is an outstanding addition to the LX. It continues DASOFT's legacy of producing innovative and exceptionally useable products. For me, the modification fills two purposes: (1) saves time, as has already been pointed out; (2) allows me to maintain, unmodified, the automaticity associated with LX software control and use in general (i.e. it means it acts just live every other program within the woof and warp of it's basic user interface). This has an added benefit of allowing me to focus on the task/outline/brainstorm at hand without having to "think" too hard about the user interface. The author has already considered this -- F2 (the universal ADD button) for new child, the DEL key for deletions, etc. It's a VERY intuitive program for an LX user. This one ESC characteristic at the top of a map is the one exception that I have come across so far. Adding a cancel to the esc dialog at tree root also follows the logic throughout the rest of the program, actually. See dialog for "sibling." Note the cancel button? The cancel button could just have easily been left out, whereupon the user would be forced to ADD and then delete. Hope this helps clarify.

Many of the Beta testers are present here, and in fact participated in "The Great Debate" ... I assure you the discussion inside the Beta on this issue is intense. But that's the process, and we have been through it before several times, usually helping Andreas to bring out reasonably nice software ... As a result of the discussion here and other discussions, several ideas came up, and we are dealing with them. Even a version or two of Beta code made available to the beta. We are exploring several routes, and the fun part (us pressuring Andreas to do what we think is right! ) begins now. We certainly will let you all know when come up with something. Something will definitely come out. Depepnding on what our discussions yield, maybe even soon. For me, Andreas and the rest of the Beta, THANK YOU! All the best! Avi M.

If there are several children items to a parent, then when you use the left/right keys to move from the parent to a child, it would be nice to jump to one of the children in the middle instead of to the first one. For example, if there are five children, jump to number three, the middle one. If there are an even number, jump to the one just above the mid-point. That's how I'd do it, anyway. You can get to where you want with fewer keystrokes on average. Another suggestion is that if you have children on both the left and right sides of the main, central item, and you're currently at the left-bottom one, the down key should take you up to the top-right one, and vice-versa. For items that are just stacked vertically, they should wrap so that if you're on the bottom and you hit the down key, you'll go to the top one. -- Curtis Cameron WGS-84 N33.033 W96.724 ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2001 09:04:47 +0200 Reply-To: furlan@gmx.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Dr. Werner Furlan" Organization: OE9FWV Subject: Re: Hinge Crack MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT hi Tiki, on 17 Jul 2001, at 20:28 Malcolm Shewan wrote about: Hinge Crack > I fixed my hinge crack two years ago using epoxy glue.

It takes immense efforts to not have "my heart bleed for you! ) Seriously, try using smaller memory settings that will be sufficient to run the apps you need. Ultimately, there is not much we can do (outside manufacturing a NEW palmtop with a chip capable of addressing more memory). MaxDOS is one excellent solution you may wish to try. > (b) I set it to 200k because at 150 I was hanging on F3 > İnote¨ (it's a pretty severe hang, too -- sometimes requiring CTRL-SHIFT-ON > to recover, but mostly a CTRL-ALT-DEL).

In the past I have suggested a stripped down version of PE, without any of the fancy functions that support other programs. I like PE, just wish it was faster and needed less memory. I could do without support for PIM, WWW/LX, email, or database, or even spell checker (could still use the outliner and formatting functions). Essentially then there would be two versions of PE. It would still be a bit slower than the tiniest editors, but it would be faster and use less memory than the current PE, while still providing the same pleasant interface. I think the problem was that Andreas was concerned that there was no consensus about which features to keep and which to leave. I suggested at the time that Andreas make an arbitrary determination for a bare bones program. Any chances?

Probably 90% of the reason you like PE is that it has nice features. Stripping them will give you TED.COM ... > just wish it was faster and needed less memory. We are working on Magic/LX at a furious pace. It will charge your battery while it runs, it will pre-enter all the information you would have entered in the various databases, it will send emails to everyone before they write to you and tell them the answer to their questions, even those they may not have thought about by that time. Best of all, it will preconfigure itself to only the features you will need when you start it, occpy 15-25 bytes in memory, and will have solved and finished the work you intend to do BEFORE you fire up the program even. Anticipated release date: February 31, 2002. You want a copy? Me too. > or database, or > even spell checker (could still use the outliner and formatting > functions). Sure, this preconfiguration to what you will need is coming up in Magic/LX, see above. The one nice thing about PE is that depite its price, you get lots of support and lots of features . It is not an ideal program for EVERY situation (although we feel Magic/LX will be the perfect ideal), but for the price, it is reasonably usable and a justifiable value. > Essentially then there would be two versions of > PE. Yeah, right! And I'll want another subset of features, and so on. And Andreas will maintain them all? nah!!!

The "pleasant interface" takes more > than you know. I used to use PE before the advent of PIM. When PIM came up, PE was updated and it started having problems with programs it did not have problems with before (uses more memory). And it started faster. So it is not speculation, but actual experience (I first joined the list about 4 -6 months before Mitch gave it up, so it should give you some idea of how far back I have seen that program). A consolation would be to get a copy of some of the earliest versions of PE. Have any hanging around? My older computer crashed hard a few years ago, taking my old downloads with it.

The latest DOS version is v4.0, and someone reported on the list last year (or the year before) that Soft Ware House/Texas Instruments would no longer be supporting the DOS version. The DOS version Chartwell-Yorke is offering is version 4.0, although I have to admit it's not immediately obvious (check out the What's New page, it says "What's New in Version 4"). bye, Laust ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2001 19:20:04 -0400 Reply-To: Larry Tachna Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Larry Tachna Subject: Re: Stop the HTML Posts (Please) Comments: To: Russel Brooks In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit >>Am I the only one getting tired of HTML posts? no but everyone is probably getting tired of complaining about them ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2001 19:20:06 -0400 Reply-To: Larry Tachna Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Larry Tachna Subject: Re: Stop the HTML Posts (Please) Comments: To: Domingo In-Reply-To: <001a01c10f24$e6004060$136a6d40@mama> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit >>Emailing uncle Bill >>about Outlook's defaults and problems would be more effective >>than flames here, I think. thanks for the laugh ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2001 19:36:50 -0400 Reply-To: LFeldman@USA.COM Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Larry Feldman Subject: Re: Stop the HTML Posts (Please) Comments: cc: HPLX-L-request@uconnvm.uconn.edu In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Suggestion: depending on the version of Listserv software we are running, there is an option to block HTML code.

I have a file where one of the items off the main one is a link to another map, and that map is within the same file. I was viewing inside the sub-file map, and I hit Menu-Quit. It prompted me to save the file CURT.MM, I hit Enter for OK, then the display reverted back to the main map view and again prompted me to save the file, and I selected OK again. Then when I got back in to MM/LX, the link to the secondary map no longer works. It seems to be a link to the main map, because when I click it (it's underlined), the screen flashes, and I see the same map, the highlight is at the center item again, and the number at the top of the screen is (2). Somehow when I saved the file it lost the secondary map data.

Same thing happened to me with MM/LX after I had typed in my family tree (parents, grandparents, their details etc) When I tried to link a new map to one of my grandparents (to show my uncles/aunts) it prompted/asked me to save it to a file and i used the same file name mentined in the dialog window thinking it would become a new map link in my original file. I then saved it and quit. When next opening my family tree file all i saw was the name of my grandparent in the center of the screen, nothing else! Looking at my file with PE, it had shrunk to a few bites from its original 8.4k. Now only 124 bytes it contains just my grandparent's name. The original was lost and a backup is nowhere to be found.

If you manage to open ADB in two SC workareas, your ADB is toast, and looks more like chopped salad and chopped meat than anything useful. To make absolutely sure you cannot do this, even by mistake, SC will not allow opening it in another WA, even if it is closed in the first WA.

Help shows: If there is a note, ENTER shows the note. If there is no note, ENTER follows a link. If there is a note AND a link, Ctrl-ENTER follows the link. If there is neither, ENTER opens the edit dialog for the item. A link to a mind map or a text file is shown as underline. A note is announced as a small square to the right of an item.

A COM file has to run in one 64KB segment including code, data and stack. The DOS loader function just copies the program into one segment of the main memory and starts executing it. All references are relative within the 64KB segment. An EXE file usually uses different code, data, stack and extra segments. And because the loader function only knows at load time of the program, where these different segments are available in main memory, it has to resolve these so called "relocatable segment references" at load time. A program like PE may easily have >2000 relocatable segment references. To resolve them takes time. There is nothing to do against that unless starting again from scratch and designing a program to become a COM file. Indeed you cannot use C for this job. I see only one way to speed up PE loading time at no cost: If D&A could release an uncompressed version of PE, I guess the load time could be about one second faster, because PE.EXE doesn't has to be decompressed every time at startup. But it is up to the programmer, how he releases his programs. I don't complain! I like PE very much. It is the only editor I use and I prefer to take into account the load time instead of learning new editor commands which are likely to be confused and eating up the previously saved one or two seconds of a faster loading tiny COM editor.

Early versions of SC allowed this to be tried. It became apparent, from user feedback, that such a practice would corrupt the appointments and to-do list. The same was found to be true for other database apps in the Palmtop. The problem lies in having a live index in working memory while storing data on the disk. Later versions of SC prevented this from happening either inadvertently or intentionally. I did have two appointment books many years ago. They had different names, Personal.ADB and Work.ADB, and I could flip between them with the File Open command-- in a single SysMgr session. Even that became a hassle. I combined the two files into one and used the priority field in the ToDo list to keep my tasks separated, e.g. P0, P1, P2, W0, W1, W2, etc. The appointments were blended together, as they should be for someone who does not have the gift of bilocating. There are several DOS PIMS in the Simtel files. I tried most of them at one time or another. I preferred the built-in appt book and to-do list on the Palmtop. Others prefer the PIM/PE combo from DASOFT. For all the tips and techniques for using the database apps, and Software Carousel, search the archives at www.PalmtopPaper.com Hope this helps. .ed. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 19 Jul 2001 06:15:26 -0700 Reply-To: wayne.yang@bigfoot.com Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Wayne E.

I'd complete the driver installation for what it thinks it's got and see if it comes up in file manager as an additional drive. If it's another brand, check their website for win98 drivers. Once you've got the files (.adb, .pdb and .gdb files in _dat, and whatever other .doc or .xls files he's got) it's a matter of translating them into csv or whatever. the .İx¨db files can be read using freeware utilities (gdbio and a couple others I think) which can be obtained from www.palmtop.net (the "super" site).

The PIM data can be converted to Outlook format with OL2LX, the data base files can be converted to CSV (comma seperated values) with GDBIO and ADBIO.... what else do you need to convert?

AFAIK, these drivers are only for linear flash cards and SRAM. Modern cards are NOT of that kind. a 10 MB card is probably not too old and is probably NOT a linear flash.

Then you have the chance to save the current mask including its contents (your new From address) as template. You can then choose, if you want to save it as global template or jsut for that mailbox. The first will overwrite post.tpl, the second will create a file named İcurrentmailbox¨.tpl and everytime you compose a message in that mailboy, this tpl file will be used.

Well, I have done nearly everything you all sugggested: Moving the swap file to the first place on the card, recalculating the ressource pool size, configuring with SC shut down (have never done something different), and at last I increased the size of the ressource pool (swap file) by approximately 500K. After all these changes, it still didn't work faster. BUT: After a few days of usage with a few times of rebooting (but with the same configuration as a few days before), it finall y is now as fast as it was before. I cannot imagine why, I have changed NOTHING since it was so slow for the last time. Very strange. Well, i think I will avoid reconfiguration as much as I can in the future, run it as long as I can with the current config and speed and keep beeing happy with that. Thank you all for your help!

I've got some good news for Psion fans. :-) After reading that article and many other articles about it, it was still my belief that Psion Digital merely announced that they would take the wait and see approach to the development of any new consumer handhelds, but will continue to manufacture and sell their current consumer handheld models. Barry, you didn't give a reference for the second article, so I looked into this even further and I found something that I think would be of great interest to you and all other Psion fans. To my surprise, I found the following July 13, 2001 article at Psion Place: Psion Denies it is Leaving Handheld Market http://www.psionplace.com/articles/2001/7/2001-7-13-Psion-Denies-it.html The following is a quote from that July 13, 2001 article: "It was reported yesterday that Psion would be exiting the handheld market. According to the earlier reports Psion was completely pulling out of the consumer handheld market other than selling off its current inventory and supporting the devices that have been sold. Peter Bancroft, a senior spokesman for Psion, released a follow-up statement saying that "There will be more Psion consumer products in the future." According to Bancroft Psion is merely 'suspending' their plans to develop a consumer Bluetooth device." So, all Psion fans can sigh a sigh of relief. :-) Cheers!

If I rename APPT.ADB to XXX.ADB, I can open the appointment book, and merge XXX.ADB, which gets me going again, but within a day things are broken again.

You can have a note, or a link, or both, or none. If a note is present, Enter displays it. If there is a link and no note, Enter follows the link. If you have both, and want the link, press CTRL-Enter. If none is present, Enter opens the dialog to edit the item. For your reference, here is the relevant section from the Navigation submap of HELP.MM: ENTER: Link / show note / edit note | If there is a note, ENTER shows the note.

Date: Fri, 20 Jul 2001 02:04:14 +0200 Hello Martin, I do need you help again. I am buying a Garmin 'Streetpilot' GPS for my next trip - maybe to Norway:-). This model will have a map built in, but I have to plan the trip at home at the desktop using some software which I will get. After the planning I have several routes which contain 'waypoints'. The 'Streetpilot' of Garmin can only hold 100 waypoints and in order to plan a long trip on the home computer I have to break the trip into sections. And then I want to load the routes and waypoints into the HP200 LX. When I am on my way I would download the actual daily version of my 'daily route' into the GPS. I have been looking for DOS programs that can download data from the PC to HP and then to the GPS. But now I am confused if they still work with the modern units. I found programs like 'G7TO' and 'Gardown' and a guy named 'Chris Lott' seemed to have written something about it in Feb 98. I even asked for the first time in the Usenet. But no good answers. I know that there are WinCE program available that can do it. Even 'Palmtops':-( And I do not want to give up yet. Do any of your friends work with the HP200 and a separate Garmin GPS? I would be interested to get some information.

PKUNZIP ROBOWEB.ZIP (in C:\ROBOWEB, for example), and read README.TXT for further instructions. If you have never edited a ROBOT.CFG file before, then follow the setup instructions in RWOUTBOX.TXT. Good Luck! ------ Basically you give ROBOWEB/LX a URL and off he goes digging the site, throwing HTML in one directory, non-HTML in another. Or he will immediately strip all HTML and put it in a POST/LX in-box for you. He digs to a specified depth, and will respond to many other controls and filters. Examples included. Freeware. Also PEFMT.ZIP is available at the same sites. It is a tiny 2K file, which is a "format filter for PalEdit". There was some discussion of this type of thing here on HPLX-L. I have been using it successfully for a few weeks now. It reformats blocks of lines with the same quoting prefix. See PEFMT.DOC for instructions. -Tony ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2001 12:20:23 +1200 Reply-To: Tony Hutchins Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Tony Hutchins Subject: ROBOWEB/LX available MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Mon, 23 Jul 2001 10:10:16 +1200 (NZT) Hi, me again > ROBOWEB.ZIP (120K) is available at: I checked the sites - it downloads well here using "G" within POST/LX. Thanks to Avi for uploading the files. Also I should explain more about ROBOWEB.ZIP. It includes everything you need to run the ROBOWB/LX, apart from WWW/LX. For example it includes the latest ROBOT.EXE, and also GET.EXE (this is identical to the GET.EXE in GET.ZIP which has been available for maybe 5 years!). Mainly, I write to tell this: It also includes 2 exquisite *new* freeware tools by Andreas: H2T.EXE - converts HTML to TEXT. This has been tested on some very complex web pages - even one with everything on one line 70,000 characters long. It is magnificent at extracting the links/labels from HTML (the -L option). This one has no .DOC - just run it from the command line to see the options. SR.EXE - a search and replace engine. His is used to re-link the HTML offline, and also at other places in ROBOWEB/LX. Very handy. SR.DOC included. - Tony ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2001 03:46:25 +0000 Reply-To: fjkaufman@WORLDNET.ATT.NET Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "F.

If you have Outlook (not Outlook Express, which I see you're using), you can import the file into Outlook, then create a new adb file with that data.

It is also used for switching the serial lamp Daniel built. I think you could power a Photo MOS relais with this, and let it switch your radio on / off. There was a guy on the list who did exactly this. His name was Owen Morgan and he lives on a sailingboat. You can start the program whith your appointment database. The Photo MOS relay uses nearly no power and I had one which could switch 1 or 2 A. It is secure for the serial port, no direct connection to the radio. 73!

You definitely need a new screen. I need one, too! Your best option is probably to buy a used old palmtop (on ebay, for example, may also be a 100LX, since it has the same screen). Screens are rare and expensive, if you ever find one, you'll have to pay 100-150 US$ for one.

Owen Morgan (former list member) did a similar kind of thing, IIRC. You can launch a DOS application from the appointment book, so you could launch a batch file which: 1. turns the COM port on (with Stefan Peichl's STCOM1, for example) 2. waits the time you need for recording 3. switches the COM port off again (SETCOM1 again) or you make two appointments, one for switching on, one for switching off. And you build a device containing a transistor and a relay, which enables the serial port to power the relay so you can use it to switch your tape recorder.

This topic has been discussed in detail before. THe summary I remember is that indeed there was an old DOS version of an Adobe PDF reader, but it wouldn't run on our 200LX, nor would it work with most of modern PDF files. The fundamental problem is that the PDF "format" is really a wrapper for a lot of different types of file storage methods. It can be postscript-like, bit images, compressed, etc. The parsing of these plethora of formats is quite a task. If anyone has any new information on this matter, I'm sure we would enjoy hearing about it. -Chris Lott -- ************************************************************************ R.

PDF files have to be processed by another program on the desktop machine first. I assume it prerenders certain elements of the file, resizes embedded images, and generally reduces the complexity of the PDF file. This way, the Palm "PDF" viewer can be kept light (I think it's ~30kb in size). A similar technique should be possible on the LX, but it's not a simple task. bye, Laust ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 17:11:27 -0700 Reply-To: Martin Crundall Sender: HPLX Mailing List Comments: To: dvm123@GMX.CO.UK From: Martin Crundall Subject: Re: Mail Delivery Status Notification Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed heh -- my response was nailed --- here it is again, cleaned up: this is the latest v - b - s - c - r - i - p - t virus that's floating around right now. don't open the attachment. if you're an outlook or outlook express user, expect a few copies of this email. i've been a member of groups.yahoo.com for a while now and as far as i can tell, my junk mail level hasn't increased (2 or 3 a day). ----Original Message Follows---- From: Domingo Reply-To: Domingo To: HPLX-L@UConnVM.UConn.Edu Subject: Fluff: Has anyone seen this?

I "tinkered" with this program, or its "kin" in an early release. It was AWFUL! Imagine 1) having to read a letter (or A-4) sized document by scrolling a 3" square window around it (couldn't seem to make it word-wrap; so I had to scroll back and forth to read *EVERY* line) and the desktop "rendering" program REALLY degrades the images. I was using a B&W, lower resolution Palm at the time, but don't imagine that color or higher res. would help much. My best solution is still a 200LX duct-taped to a Palm of some sort. I have a color Clie' now İFrench for: "color palm" .... sorry Nathalie!¨, but still need my 200LX on a daily basis. --tim ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 21:45:08 -0400 Reply-To: Tim Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Tim Subject: Re: pdf palm beats 200lx In-Reply-To: <200107250212.f6P2CjB27536@mail.hiwaay.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit On Tuesday 24 July 2001 22:12, Chris Lott wrote: ... > well, suppose for the moment that the desktop program is documented > somewhere, would it be possible then to write a similar dumbed-down > viewer for the 200LX palmtop, for viewing pre-processed files? I like Chris' Idea. Let the 200LX have a (prob. better) way to view the PDFs.... (at least it would be wider than the Palm's viewpoint) And, while folks are programming, work out a point-and-click way to use Avantgo for newsreading w/o having to configure any other software (like get, etc., that I still have troubles with). --ttr ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 22:50:50 -0400 Reply-To: bmm@cs.cmu.edu Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Bruce Maggs Subject: Re: pdf palm beats 200lx There was indeed a version of Adobe Acrobat Reader than ran in DOS.

There seem to be two executables, acrobat.exe (44,129 bytes) and acromain.exe (1,406,121 bytes). So running this on the 200lx doesn't look promising.

This is supposed to effectively render >this type of virus harmless. Anyone knows how? This isn't a visual basic script kind of virus. It's an executable program, which disguises itself by using two filename extensions, such as myfile.doc.com. The executable program contains its own SMTP e-mail program, so it doesn't depend on Outlook or any other. It sends itself to addresses in your Windows Address Book, and it goes through your web browser's cache, looking for e-mail addresses, and sends itself to those. It got several copies, mostly with Spanish messages. As with the VB script worms, this one requires you to try to run the attachment. It would seem like it would propagate better than ILOVEYOU because it doesn't depend on Outlook, but I think corporate mail systems effectively squash executable attachments nowadays. -- Curtis Cameron WGS-84 N33.033 W96.724 ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 23:25:38 -0500 Reply-To: Curtis Cameron Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Curtis Cameron Organization: None Subject: Re: LX tasks Comments: To: ashoni arora In-Reply-To: <20010724220510.YCFG18323.mta09.onebox.com@onebox.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit On Tue, 24 Jul 2001 18:05:10 -0400 ashoni arora wrote: >The LX tasks facility seems v ltd ie only 1 list. >Does anyone know of a more sophisticated app with categories etc. DASoft's new program MM/LX could do this pretty well, letting you arrange tasks hierarchically, however it doesn't have any way to remind you when something is due. -- Curtis Cameron WGS-84 N33.033 W96.724 ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 25 Jul 2001 00:29:05 -0400 Reply-To: Andrew King Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Andrew King Subject: FLUF: WIN98 without VB engine MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit >Subject: Re: Fluff: Has anyone seen this? > Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 22:08:29 -0400 > From: Domingo > >Thanks for all the answers.

Just released and free. It uses GET.EXE but you don't have to configure it - just have it in your DOS PATH. ROBOWEB takes care of everything. Just before release we worked out an almost point/click modus operandi. See RWOUTBOX.DOC for that. Instructions for ROBOWEB are stored in a POST/LX outbox. You just chose a site, press "S" to activate it and go on-line. You do have to type a few new lines into POST.CFG to configure it. ROBOT.CFG is not needed with the RWOUTBOX.DOC setup. However the product was developed using ROBOT.CFG, so the main docs are all based on that, but all the same concepts apply to both methods. ROBOWEB/LX comes with a couple of sample outboxes. One has about 20 avantgo sites all ready to go. What we found was that while the avantgo sites are nice and small, they are not always as up-to-date as their "parents", so we also made sure the program worked on a wide range of large sites - especially for news. ROBOWEB/LX will, for example, dig and retrieve pages from a site that HV alone, online, will not do, due to some of the complex relative addressing in use nowdays.

Horizontal lines? Oh dear... Vertical lines are sometimes repairable, because for the vertical lines, conductive rubber bands which are pressed against the contacts of the LCD are responsible. These rubber bands are on the top and bottom of the screen over the whole width. Pressing slightly on the edge of the screen above or under the missing lines lets them appear again most of the times and a durable fix MAY also be possible by bending little metal latches which press these rubber bands against the screen a little bit more tough. Horizontal lines are a worse problem. Try also pressing on the edge (see me LX repair page http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/repair). Do the missing linse reappear? For the horizontal lines, a piece of adhesive tape (with very thin lines of conductive material in it) is glued at one side of the screen and soldered onto the circuit board of the screen. It is not replaceable and I don't know of a way to make it work again if some of the contacts are loosened.

It seems like it might be a candidate for adaptation to the LX, as the source code is available. The last versions that ran in 16-bit mode were 2.61 and 3.33 (current version is 7.0). You can download GS v3.33 from http://panda.bg.univ.gda.pl/pub/m&fdc/tools/; I can't find my link to v2.61 right now, but you should be able to do a Google search for it. One big problem is that the earlier versions of Ghostscript were Postscript-to-text converters, not pdf-to-text, and, as someone mentioned, pdf files cover a lot of different compression schemes. Another problem with GhostScript is that it needed at least an EGA video card. Still, the code bears looking into. A second program for which source code is available is xpdf. It is designed for X-Windows systems, but there is a DOS version (again i386 or better) that might be adaptable. The old DOS Acrobat reader (acroread.exe) is available from a number of sources, but I believe it requires at least an i386 to run.

Lots of complaints from DBCHECK about null characters in notes, etc etc. Curtis *latest* version seems fine. Make quite sure you are using the very latest. Also...check you have no problems with your outlook calendar. I often get 'conflicting entries' if I ever use it offline. This is manifest by messages when running OL2LX about 'custom form is not available'. The only fix is to view the calendar in table view (all events etc) and look for crossed swords against an entry. Fix them all! You may be able to use the 'Inbox Repair Tool' but I'm not sure if it does anything useful. It can clean up the offline file, but I don't know if this has any effect on the online file. I guess you can experiment running OL2LX with Outlook offline or online. Of course if you are desktop-only, you will only work Outlook online. You can try DBCHECK or GARLIC on the ADB file produced by OL2LX. I found Garlic left it unusable. But a clean report from DBCHECK is good. If not, perhaps you tell Curtis what kind of record it does not like - there are so many variations of appointment usages!

We use two steps to do this: 1) Remove or rename WSCRIPT.EXE, in the \WINDOWS or \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory; 2) Edit the file type associations to remove entries for .VBS, .VB*, any that refer to Windows Scripting, and any that point to WSCRIPT.EXE as the executable. (Go to My Computer, View, Options, File Types) Note that, even in MSWin 4.00 ("95"), which offers an option to remove "Windows Scripting Host" under the add/remove windows components dialog, WSCRIPT.EXE and the associations are often left intact - the same procedure will work there.

I think the 3310 doesn't have a built-in modem, so the only chance to use this phone (at least if I am correct) is to get a special PCMCIA card for that phone and replace the built-in data card by the 3310-specific data card. But I doubt that Nokia makes data cards for these new phones. And of course you won't be able to dock the phone directly onto the back of the 700LX, as you could with the 2110. The easiest way would be a phone with built*in modem. Connect it either with a serial data cable or, if you have WWW/LX with IrDA, to the palmtop and go online. So the 700LX's special communication features are useless, but you could still use it as you would use a 200LX. See my home page http://www.dnaiel-hertrich.de/mob_hplx for details about mobile internet access.

If it is an executable, it cannot be run under Linux (OR not under DOS/Windows, since the executable format is different). If it is a kind of a script, which uses an interpreter, Linux is also safe, because you would have to enable your mail program to execute scripts of that kind. I don't know if this is even possible. Of course, if one is so braindead and saves the attachment and tries to exxecute it, just because he is courious, no system is really safe. ;-) And if you do this under Linux, logged in as root, you shouldn't even be allowed to work with a computer! :-) GTX daniel -- Daniel.Hertrich@gmx.de phone: +49 177 7955549 Celia.Hertrich@gmx.de phone: +49 177 8616031 fax & voice mail: +49 721 151399479 http://www.daniel-hertrich.de ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2001 09:49:04 +0200 Reply-To: h_e_guenther@attglobal.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Guenther Helmuth E."

Nokia 3110 is a very old phone. It came after the 2110(1), but it is a simpler phone. I am not sure if it can be used for datatransfers at all. Hmm yes maybe it can. I think it could be used with Nokia Cellularware and then it should be able to be used with Nokia Cellular Data suite. > Will it work on a HP OmniGo 700LX > "Communicator" palmtop?

I do not think so. There is some cards that work with Ericsson phones. But I do not think that you can get it to work as the one that are already there.

When an appointment is set, the 200lx correctly awakens and the alarm goes off, but the computer locks up. This requires a hard reset (ctrl/shift/on) with an alternate boot (5) and setting a date earlier than the alarm. This allows me to delete the appointment and carry on. If I don't do the alt boot, the alarm immediately goes off and locks up. Once I noticed an error message of "stack overflow". This problem even happens with NO autoexec.bat and NO config.sys, so it can't be other programs. It also happens when I test the alarms in appt "options" The other 200lx makes no sound, even when testing in appt options. Any ideas?

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit This morning I received 2 email viruses from names I don't know. I also received a reply to my having mentioned on this list that I haven't seen a Psion and asking if it's ok to send me some pictures of a Psion. This was from Beverly Carvalho. It contained quotes from the list. It didn't contain an attachment but I recieved it about the time I received the emails that did. Suspicious, I did a search on the listserve archive for "Carvalho" and found no mention of the name. However I didn't know if that searches the name of the sender so I opened each month for this year and did a text search for that name. It wasn't found. Either there is no Beverly Carvalho or that is the name of a lurker. Beverly Carvalho, if you exist, will you say so on the list? Does anyone else know someone by this name? The reason I'm concerned is that this seems like an odd request....a request to send me some pictures of a system I just said I have no knowlege of or interest in. Although it may be perfectly sincere, if it is a way to get me to accept an attachement with a virus it could be pretty dangerous. Is this paranoia? Absolutely. I've been receiving 2 or 3 email viruses every month. Sometimes more. So far this month I've recieved 10 or 12 of them and I'm getting nervous. NAV catches them. But the ones I got yesterday and today and the day before were not caught by NAV and I've notified Norton. I know they were viruses because I contacted one of the senders (someone I know) and he had opened his attachment and is now dealing with the virus, as are many of his friends. They are emails, some from people I know, some not, containing an attachment and explaining that the person sent this to me for my advice. The subject varies and the attachment name is a thinly disguised executable such as FaxCover.doc.com. Some have a .bat ending and some a .exe ending. So, Beverly Carvalho, if you're listening and you're an honest and sincere and thoughtful person, I apologize for what I'm implying and I'd like to know that I'm wrong. But I really am not interested in pictures of a Psion. :) If you're not such a person I hope everyone on this list will be alerted.

Only the subject is "flashlight_art". I rarely see virus warnings at work, but this week I've gotten about 4, all from a sender named "David Livingston" (condolences to him as a virus victim).

I heard of them before, and the price is very good, especially compared to the IBM microdrives. I saw a similar 2GB drive (made by Toshiba) at Cebit, Hannover, in February, and I tried to get the technical specs in order to see if they would work with the LX. Unfortunately, I didn't get the specs, but I doubt that the power comsumption is low enough to be operable in the LX's PCMCIA slot. I inserted one of these 2GB drives into the LX, and tried to run lxcic to see how it identified itself. It didn't spin up, and lxcic reported nothing. I don't recall the exact behaviour, though. I doubt CMS is manufacturing these drives themselves. They are probably relabeled Toshiba drives.

It will not physically fit, but if one exchanges the data card against the suitable one, and leads the cable out of the device, theoretically every phone can be connected to the 700LX.

You might try deleting the hidden file "c:\_dat\alarm.q" This will require changing the attributes first; go to DOS and type "attrib -h -r c:\_dat\alarm.q" - you should them be able to see and delete it with Filer.

You can then select the messages to download and delete. it will only send the messages of interest to you and delete the rest. Another possibility is the use of an IMAP server.

I don't know if this is even possible. You're probably safe on linux from windows viri or worms, etc. But linux is a unix variation and these things were invented in unix.

David Sargeant (thanks, David) sent the address to send to to get a list of list members and I looked at each name and email address and found no-one who seems like they might be Beverly Carvalho on this list. I also did a Yahoo peope search and found a "Richard Beverly Carvalho" in California but I have no reason to think that's the one who sent me the message. And he's not on our list of names, either. I suspect that it was a ruse of some sort to get me to open a virus email. But since it did contain appropriate quotes from this list I doubt if it was automated. But who knows. I suggest everyone be doubly careful. It's easy to trust an attachment you've asked for and someone who has access to these messages might be pretty malicious. I also got an answer from Norton Antivirus about why it isnt catching these virus emails. Here's a quote from their answer: "This is an issue that is currently being addressed. Because Sircam worm uses its own SMTP engine to create an SMTP message, it contains mime boundary markers that cause Norton AntiVirus to think that no attachment is present in the email message. Your computer will be safe as Auto-Protect will detect the Sircam worm when the attachment is executed before it can infect your system" I always leave email protection running but auto-protect turned off. But now that's changed.

You would send your mail login and password information unencrypted back and forth on the 'net? apart from that, you run the risk it that Pandamail doesn't either already log all logins+passwords, or has been hacked and a logger installed. I would never willingly use such services...

If I try to zoom or press any other keys to wrap the text it takes me back to the map. If I use F3 (Edit), which I have associated with PE, I can set the margin to wrap. When I quit the edit, PE prompts me to save the file. I do and then the ENTER key works fine. This seems to save a temp file though, not the original. I'm playing around with the demo version, so these problems might not exist in the full program. I've noticed this wrapping problem in PIM and, I think, Pro/LX.

This gives you a "Signature" field at the bottom of the compose screen. Place the highlight there and press F6 to select a file. Yo can use "F4" to save the template with your standard signature in the "Signature" field. This alternative way of adding a signature may be what you want. It is easy to change the signature at compose time by pressing F6 and typing "*.sig" for example which causes PICK.EXE to bring up a display of your signature files. - Tony 04h55m22s ago ...

I don't have a program to recommend, but: - there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter (by definition) - 1 liter of volume is expressed by a cube w/ 1 meter sides (or 10 cm per side) - so 1 liter is equivalent to 10cm x 10cm x 10cm = 1000 cm¬3 - a cm¬3 is a cubic centimer, so there are 1000 cc per 1000 milliliter - so 1 cc = 1 milliliter - Longden ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 28 Jul 2001 03:32:58 +0000 Reply-To: fjkaufman@WORLDNET.ATT.NET Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "F.

When I did Chemistry waaaay back in school, the teacher said that a litre was originally defined as 1000 cc's, but sometime later when measuring systems got a bit smarter, someone discovered that the Standard Litre that everyone had been using for years was slightly out of spec. I can't remember the figure, but it was something like 1000.0003 cc's. Anyway, the solution for the science world was to define a new measure, the millilitre, which is DEFINED as 1000th of a litre, thus inverting the original standard. Hence a ml is something like 1.0000003 or maybe 0.99999997 cc's. Dunno which and dunno the actual number, but you get the picture. The Cubic Centimetre remains as a measure of volume for such things as engines, where the capacity is calculated from dimensions measured in centimetres, so truly represents cubic centimetres. If we measured engines by pouring a liquid down the plug hole at bottom-dead-centre, then we'd use millilitres as the engine capacity measure, but we don't, so we don't To all everyday intents and purposes, the ml and the cc are the same, it's only the science world that needs the perfect accuracy of the ml.

In the message composition process POST/LX lets you F2-Add Attachments, Headers, SIGNATURES .... Give it a try. Best thing would be to remove the signature from the setup and add it each time you compose/reply. Alternative would be to have just your name as std sig file and then add the specifics with F2-Add.

Elle contredit la thhse de certains spicialistes qui ivoquaient un rebond rapide de l'iconomie amiricaine. -LE -BILLET VERT a perdu un peu de terrain aprhs l'annonce de ces chiffres, l'euro passant brihvement au-dessus de 0,88 dollar. Mais ce recul a iti de courte durie. Les chefs d'entreprise sont de plus en plus nombreux ` plaider pour une baisse du dollar. -EN -FRANCE, le -moral des patrons est en chute libre. Selon une enqujte publiie vendredi par l'Insee, les perspectives ginirales de production sont au plus bas. (Lire aussi notre iditorial page 8.) NEW YORK de notre envoyi spicial L'iconomie amiricaine a-t-elle touchi le fond ? A en croire l'administration Bush et les iconomistes les plus influents de Wall Street, le pire est passi, la ricession a iti ivitie et la reprise est pour demain. Paul O'Neill, le secritaire amiricain au Trisor, a diclari, vendredi 27 juillet, " anticiper une reprise au quatrihme trimestre". Les experts semblent surtout parier sur les vertus de la mithode Coui pour soutenir le moral des minages, des consommateurs et des investisseurs. Car la santi rielle de l'iconomie amiricaine n'est pas brillante. La croissance du produit intirieur brut (PIB) au deuxihme trimestre 2001 est tombie ` son plus bas niveau depuis huit ans, ` 0,7 % en rythme annuel selon les premihres ivaluations publiies vendredi par le ministhre du commerce. Cette expansion, la plus faible aux Etats-Unis depuis le premier trimestre de 1993, est une fois encore infirieure aux privisions des analystes dont les estimations s'itablissaient entre 0,9 % et 1,2 %. MENACES MULTIPLES Aprhs jtre passie soudainement au milieu de l'annie 2000, d'une croissance explosive, de plus de 5 %, ` un rythme ralenti de 1 %, l'iconomie amiricaine fait du surplace. " Le scinario rose que l'administration Bush et la Riserve fidirale amiricaine (Fed) ont tenti de soutenir, celui d'un retournement au deuxihme semestre, ne parant pas devoir se rialiser", risume Joe Francomano, analyste d'Erste Bank. " Les chiffres du deuxihme trimestre sont pluttt mauvais, ajoute Sadakichi Robbins, de la banque Julius Baer. Les dipenses des minages, trhs fortes jusqu'ici, se sont rivilies plus faibles que privu et l'investissement des entreprises a digringoli." L'investissement productif a plongi de 13,6 % d'avril ` juin et les dipenses en informatique ont reculi de 14,5 %. Il s'agit dans les deux cas de la plus mauvaise performance depuis dix-neuf ans. Comme l'a reconnu, les 18 et 24 juillet, le prisident de la Fed, Alan Greenspan, devant les parlementaires amiricains, l'iconomie des Etats-Unis demeure sous la menace d'une ricession qu'elle a pour l'instant iviti de justesse. "Nous ne sommes pas sortis d'affaire" et"la conjoncture continue ` se ditiriorer", avait expliqui M. Greenspan. " Les risques semblent pencher vers davantage de faiblesse de l'activiti", avait-il ajouti. Et les menaces ne manquent pas. On peut citer pjle-mjle : les incertitudes sur la consommation et le moral des minages liies notamment ` la baisse de Wall Street et ` la multiplication des annonces de licenciement, et la faiblesse de la demande extirieure provenant ` la fois du ralentissement en Europe et en Asie, des crises financihres en Argentine et en Turquie et d'un dollar trop fort. RiDUCTION DES BiNiFICES Pour l'instant, l'arme monitaire n'a pas encore produit d'effets. En dipit de six baisses consicutives du loyer de l'argent au jour le jour, rameni de 6,5 % ` 3,75 % depuis janvier - un rythme sans pricident depuis vingt ans -, le chtmage, mjme s'il est bas, s'accront, les carnets de commande des entreprises baissent, les investissements s'effondrent, les binifices se riduisent et les dipenses des minages augmentent de moins en moins vite. La consommation, qui reprisente les deux tiers du PIB amiricain, a vu son rythme de progression annuel se riduire au deuxihme trimestre ` 2,1 %, le plus faible depuis quatre ans. En juin, les commandes de biens durables (automobile...) ont baissi de 2 %. Les doutes grandissants sur la capaciti de l'iconomie ` rebondir, commencent ` peser sur le dollar qui n'avait pourtant cessi de s'appricier depuis deux ans. Vendredi, peu aprhs l'annonce des chiffres de la croissance au deuxihme trimestre, la devise amiricaine a touchi son plus bas niveau depuis deux mois contre la monnaie europienne ` 0,88 dollar pour 1 euro. Une nouvelle pluttt bonne pour la compititiviti des entreprises amiricaines dont les exportations ont baissi au printemps (- 10 %)... pour le troisihme trimestre consicutif. Mais il faudrait une baisse du dollar d'une tout autre ampleur pour soutenir les exportations. Un affaiblissement du billet vert que riclame maintenant ouvertement l'industrie amiricaine et auquel George W. Bush ne serait sans doute pas hostile ` en croire quelques diclarations ambiguks faites ` la veille de la riunion du G 8 ` Gjnes. Mais de l'avis giniral, le salut de l'iconomie amiricaine ne peut venir, comme toujours, que de la consommation intirieure. ... ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 29 Jul 2001 10:09:16 +0200 Reply-To: Lasse Karlsson Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Lasse Karlsson Subject: Re: ROBOWEB/LX MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sun, 29 Jul 2001 09:56:09 +0100 0 On Sat, 28 Jul 2001 09:12:48 +0200, Guenther Helmuth E. wrote: > Did anyone try ROBOWEB/LX? > > If somebody is interested I would like to share a working setup for: > Hi Helmuth, I have downloaded and a quick look at all the doc-files made me decide to try it "later" ;-) Too many options to deal with and too little time.

I still have the original setup, no additional sites for visit, still trying around with "Der Spiegel" and the other sites. I know what Roboweb/LX can do, and I wasn't surprised that it really does it without an problem. Was was surprising is the neat "ASCII-graphical" user interface, which I find very beautiful!

I would > love to take look at a working setup ;-) From memory I think RWOUTBOX.DOC describes a quick setup, that immediately makes available about 20 sites, in AVANTGO.O. Every "dig" in that file has been tested. It is a working setup. Theoretically it is possible to set up this just by reading/following RWOUTBOX.DOC. No ROBOT.CFG is involved at all. Much easier than ROBONEWS . Basically all you need to do is create a new POST/LX box, add about 5-6 lines to POST.CFG, and press F5. > BTW I also use ROBONEWS. Will ROBOWEB cause any problems > with that setup? None at all. ROBOWEB boxes are separate from ROBONEWS boxes. (ROBONEWS boxes are determined by ROBOT.CFG and the ROBOWEB boxes are listed in the İWEBXBOXES¨ section in POST.CFG - or in ROBOT.CFG if you use that method) The way to run them both during an on-line session is to have ExtProg=online.bat (in POST.CFG) where online.bat is along these lines: ROBOT.EXE NNTP.SCR ROBOT.EXE -p "RWEB1.SCR po" (where the second line assumes you use the RWOUTBOX method of setup). But Lasse, you are right - it looks complex - because it does have many controls. For simple sites, most controls are not used. For more complex sites the patterns (if any) in URLs/labels that you want may require more instructions for ROBOWEB. The more selective you are, the more controls are needed. If, on the other hand, you want a *whole* site, which you have no knowledge about, it is easy - 2 controls only: say Depth=20 & Maxcount=(as high as you like) - ROBOWEB will start digging, keeping track of duplicates etc, and stop when there is nothing new left. This way for example I made him dig the whole www.dasoft.com site (I think that used Depth of 8 and had maybe 70 pages, and a few files - some .SCR and .PCX). I also tested on Stefan's site and it got everything in a flash. Wonderful site that! Cheers, Tony PS - obviously the larger the dig you specifiy, the longer the online session will be, and the higher any ISP/phone company charges will be. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 29 Jul 2001 12:30:53 +0200 Reply-To: h_e_guenther@attglobal.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Guenther Helmuth E."

I'm sorry about that SMS problem though! Hopefully some bad coincidence. But it could also be something specific to ROBOWEB that I am not aware of. So, I hope you solve it soon :) > BTW: What is the exact difference between an x-box and a > folder in Post/LX? I opened the help and did a search for > "x-box", but there isn't written anything about it. POST/LX treats X-boxes different to other box types, but there is only one distinguishing difference - if *any* X-box is marked for visit on an on-line run, then after POST.EXE is finished its on-line work, he checks to see if there is anything specified by "ExtProg=" in POST.CFG, and if so he runs that program. For example if you have your SMS box marked for visit, then the "ExtProg" program will be launched. Maybe your ROBOWEB X-box is not marked for visit - it is then up to ROBOWEB to decide this, and whether anything is to be done. The ExtProg will not be launched only if all X-boxes are not marked for visit. The latest SETUP.EXE at www.dasoft.com does provide some support for X-boxes - they are treated as folders (F-type). Apart from that, it is up to programs external to POST.EXE to use the X-box. - Tony ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 29 Jul 2001 16:39:08 +0200 Reply-To: Josef Meyer Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Josef Meyer Subject: ExtProg in post.cfg Comments: To: tony.hutchins@attglobal.net MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Tony, I am going to experiment with your famous Roboweb program.

I have no idea what this is doing (I have nothing found in Posthelp). I don't see how POST/LX knows which ExtProg to use for which application. I am not even sure if my current configuration works with Stefan Peichl's PDU/SMS. Can I just add this 3rd line as ExtProg=ROBOT.EXE -p "RWEB1 po", or is this confusing for POST/LX?

Since I was the one who gave you the laugh I think I'm the main one who is qualified to either be offended or not. I enjoyed your post and thought it was funny. :) I guess there are times in life where a sense of humor is inappropiate but I can't think of any that inolve computers. About 10 years ago my sister was doing contract work as a programmer on an AS400 system.

I tried to play with every parameter in the İSMS¨ section and finally found out that the Sets= setting was faulty. It coutained nothing, now I inserted "a" (Sets=a) and now it works again. I have two sets set up: a and c. a are all folders and boxes which are stored in a directory on the flash card, c are all stored on the internal hard drive. I thought a mailbox (and thus the SMS box) should be shown everytime, independant on which set is activated, if you leave the Sets= parameter without a value, but that seems to be wrong: The Sets= parameter seems to have all sets set in order to be visible everytime. If one leaves Sets= without a value, it seems to lead to such strange side effects. > Somehow this rings a bell here!

It told me something about "cannot create index2 (disk space)" when exiting from Post/LX when I tried to mark and enter the SMS box. Sometimes it showed me a strange looking outbox when hitting enter on the SMS box with message 13554/16425 marked :-) (I usually have something like 10 messages in the SMS outbox!). > I have an open mind.

But, I still don't know why this happened just now. I cannot remember to have deleted the "Sets=" settings in the last days. I thought I had it set this way all the time.

It would still only launch the first ExtProg= it encounters while looking from the top->bottom in POST.CFG. Any others are ignored. Something like this should do what you want.

I had this done about a year ago. I must say I am very satisfied with the new 64mb/DS upgraded machine I purchased from them. I have two other 200LX palmtops that I want to upgrade one of these days when I have the funds . You will be very happy you do this. It is well worth the money. The extra memory provided me with plenty of space for every program and all the data files. I even have a working copy of Windows 3.0, complete with Excel and Word, running on my palmtop. You can just imagine how much space that takes on the C:\ drive. My advice is, go for it. You won't be sorry. This upgrade definately adds new life to the palmtop. William E.

It's like getting a new palmtop. Mine gets a lot of use, so the "tune-up"/repair (about $150) was well worth it. I got the 8MB/double-speed upgrade.

I can only offer a few things to consider: 1 - Thaddeus is a small shop and they can't always do a quick turnaround. Be sure that you can live a week or more without your palmtop (even more so with international shipping) 2 - Consider the 32MB upgrade over the 64MB if you want to save some cash. I've found that there are only a few applications that I really need to have in main memory when I swap out the flash card and use a modem or eth card. I also use it for emm and SC swap space. The memory is faster but the difference is not huge. The extra $300 can buy a whole bunch more storage in the form of a 225MB+ sandisk card. 3 - Get a flash card that has plenty of room to back up your main memory. Maybe even a seperate one just for backups. A 48MB card is big enough to do a compressed backup of 64MB mem and can be had cheep used (<$50) > -----Original Message----- > From: HPLX Mailing List İmailto:HPLX-L@uconnvm.uconn.edu¨On Behalf Of > Owen Samuelson > Sent: Sunday, July 29, 2001 5:06 PM > To: HPLX-L@uconnvm.uconn.edu > Subject: 64MB + doulbe speed upgrade? > > > Hi everyone, > I'm thinking of getting my 200 upgraded and looking for > opinions from those who have had Thaddeus do this for them. > > Thanks, > Owen S. > > ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml > ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2001 16:39:42 +0200 Reply-To: furlan@gmx.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Dr. Werner Furlan" Organization: OE9FWV Subject: Re: Hotmail Comments: To: Larry Castor MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT hi Larry, Hotmail is not ready for POP.

The detail view only has a "press any key to continue." The reason I'm asking is that I don't always set a right margin. If I go back in my PIM files and reset the margin, things get messy. For example, if I set the margin to 30 for the following to do: +( 30-JUL-2001 +t Send email following up on Friday meeting. +) It would wrap to: +( 30-JUL-2001 +t Send email following up on Friday meeting. +) I'd like to have the same option "Notes" Guenther pointed out available in PIM.

Do yourself a favor, get the highest amount memory you can afford. If theere is anyway you can swing the moola for the 64 mb, go for it. You will thank yourself a million times over for going for the 64. If it comes to a choice between memory cards and a memory upgrade, go for the memory upgrade. (the 200lx only has one slot).

You can try using garlic.zip (super site??) but I have a feeling that your file is really damaged. Also try creating a new contact file. Now try merging your old file into the new one. Menu, File, Merge..... The other option will be tedious and manual. Create a new empty contact file. Then if you can, try to open your original contact file in MEMO. From Memo, you can attempt to find readable data and using copy/cut/paste try to move data to a new contact file. Then cleanup!

I'm currious > also how/why people are combining SMS with their POST/LX program. SMS are just small emails (not more than 160 chars) which do not use the internet to travel from sender to receiver, but use the GSM wireless net. Computers are endpoints for the internet, mobile phones are endpoints for GSM. Instead of POP and SMTP servers (for email), the SMS use SMSCs (Short Message Service Centers). The addressing is also different: For SMS your SMS address is the phone number of your mobile phone. But very similar to email, your SMS are stored in the SMSC if you are the receiver of an SMS but you are offline (mobile phone is turned off). Other than with email, you don't have to ask for new email once you are online. The waiting SMS are sent to your mobile phone as soon as you switch your phone on. The palmtop-mobile phone connectiong is only for ease of typing and handling SMS. It does not mean at all, that there is a transition from GSM to the Internet concerning SMS. But it is handy to use the same interface for email and SMS, because both are very similar. POST/LX is prepared for this use. It is a totally different story, if you use your mobile phone as a modem to the internet. Then you have a transition from GSM to the internet, but this has nothing to do with SMS.

Huh, this doesn't sound good! :-( I haven't heard from such a problem, but your explanation sounds as it might really be the reason. Or, I say it another way: I cannot think of any other reason. ;-) If I were you, I would take the palmtop apart once more, clean everything, specially the contacts between keyboard and mainboard and the key contacts themselves, and reassemble it. Maybe this halps. > Anyway, my LX seems to work fine now exept for the blue frame, > I use it now without it and press manually so to speak direct > on the black spots. Not very convenient, is it? Strange -- what do the plastic keys in another way than you if you press the black dots manually? There must be a solution!

I even tried OtherDir=\other. Yup it works great. Thanks for this idea - at first I thought it was relative to the current directory, but now I see it is relative to the drive or root. I also see that TmpDir=.\tmp works ok! I already changed the docs for the next release, and the RWEBDIR.SCR. In the meantime I hope you don't mind manually editing RWEBDIR.SCR. - Tony 01h10m44s ago ...

For HV to find a file outside the directory where HV.EXE is, the file must have a fully explicit path. So, for viewing an HTML attachment in POST/LX, with HV, the TmpDir in POST.CFG should be c:\tmp rather than \tmp or .\tmp. I, unfortunately generalised this to all directories. Oh, yes and as ROBOWEB/LX uses HV for reading offline, the HTML links also need to be fully explicit - so I'd better still check HTMDir and OtherDir .. or just leave it up to the user. It's freeware after all :) - Tony 15m12s ago ...

In RWEBDIR.SCR I now have: if (found :) ok = it $a2 if (found Post) ok = error $a2=$a1 has no drive: İref:APPENDIX 3 in full doc¨ x :ok This allows no ":" for POST/LX data directories. That is always fine. I think this was the main point of your post. I still really have to trap a TmpDir that has no "drive:" because otherwise HV (when run from a different directory to TmpDir) will not find a file there. Also, for similar reasons the drive needs to be in "HTMDir" and "OtherDir". I think Lasse also used TmpDir=\TMP. Do you also use that? AFAIK this makes it difficult to directly view a .HTM attachment in HV from Post/LX. In any case, the "= error" line can always be commented out, if the user desires to do so. That will work fine for "Detag=1", but not in general for the HTML modes. 12h56m31s ago ...
