Comments: To: katana@CLEAR.NET.NZ MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Agreed. I have been using dBASE IV version 1.1 on the palmtop for six months now. PCFile and dBASE III didn't cut it, as they didn't allow memo fields that could be interchanged with modern databases such as Access, Paradox and FoxPro. But dBASE IV works quite well. Now I can keep track of our large inventory of equipment at work, and log my activities, directly on the palmtop. Then when I am done with updates I can import it into our Paradox 8 for Windows 95 network database. I spent $50 for a used copy of Paradox 3.5 for DOS to see if it would work with v.8 for Windows 95, and to no avail... but dBASE IV 1.1 worked fine! I would be interested to hear if dBASE V has been tested on the palmtop, or if other versions of dBASE IV have, and how they compare speed-wise, disk-space-usage, etc. David Lawrence wrote: > > Well, i should have given this application a closer look, > earlier! i have been held up in my other studies/writing by the > gift of a full package of dbase IV and have been up late at night > reading the manuals and working it all out on my LX. > (Nothing beats having the manuals!) > > Yes, it does run on the palmtop, it takes about 3.5meg with all > the help & tutorial and sample files, but can be skinnied down to > under 2meg. > > The ability to import txt, 123, csv's and export to several > different formats and generate applications is great. > > It actually runs faster on my standard 200LX than on my ancient > 386sx Toshiba, directly due to disk access speeds. > > i can seriously recommend dbase as an awesomely powerful program > that will run on our favorite pocketable computer. > David Lawrence > katana@clear.net.nz > > Net-Tamer V 1.09 - Test Drive > > -------------------------------------------- > ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** > For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : > HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 28 Feb 1998 21:17:40 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , sponsor@FTEL.NET Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "A.

Frankly, I have no idea what is going there. I have looked at his stuff, and short of trying his setup in my machine we did everything - all to no avail. I had an idea just the other night and emailed it to him, He sounds skeptical that we have many customers who _do_ use IBMNet, but I beg to differ with him with all due respect. In our Beta, the first connection was direct connect, then came CIS, then IBM Net. It has worked ever since. One or fellows here, Tony Hutchins, uses Ibm Net and it does work for him. He also set up several other customers straight, sometimes before I get to them (well he lives in New Zealand and his day begins when I begin to snore at night! :) I can probably think of at least 10-15 customers right off the top of my head, and at one point when I counted, it was many many times that... I think IBM Net has done a good job in stability, but perhaps the latest intro of PPP protocols and different numbers and all that made the network a bit shaky. (I thought, in fact, thet Tim's problems came from the PPP usage, and emailed him last night about that.). Anyway, thanks for emailing to him and inviting him. He will DEFIBITELY benefit from the camaraderie and knowledge base of this list! I know I learn something EVERY SINGLE TIME I login.

But: they are opened units that obviously were shipped to other customers first (OK, I only saw two, so 'research' on a probe with n=2 is not very valid...) Neither of the units worked!

I had the same thing happen yesterday! I spent most of today trying to find the exact cause of the problem, and I'm still baffled!!! - I placed my LX in my Smart Dock ~5:00pm EST, and it started to boot, but failed to boot completely. - Everything from CONFIG.SYS seemed to load OK, but when my AUTOEXEC got to andrew2, the problems started: - the font loader appeared to load OK (but later I realized that the font was not changed from the default. - EXKEY was the next program to load, which failed. - MOREEXM was next to load, but it stalled here. Here are my observations after a few hours of investigation: - both the EXKEY.ini & MOREEXM.ini files appeared to be intact. - I finally ran CHKDSK, and my TREMM.SWP was corrupted as well as one large .TXT file that was open in Vern Berg's LIST. ~carosel.tmp was also corrupted. There were a few other files corrupted as well which were not open, or related. - Hilighting a file in FILER and ENTER gave an error msg ("cannot find ÝMORE¨") even though FILER.ini & PNS200.ini appeared OK - Software Carousel would not load, "Could not find CAROUSEL.PGM" although that file appeared OK. *** I had attributed this to a glitch in SC until now!!! BTW: I also have a 1mB 200LX upgraded to 2x, 8mB. - I have a STACked 4mB EXP1414LXM which appears to be OK. Anybody Else Have a Problem? I find it hard to believe this is a coincidence!

I've been using WWW/LX since it came out. Upgraded to WWW/LX with Post/LX when D&A released that. I'm not gonna claim the software is perfect, but what is?? It IS a damn good product for accessing the 'net with the palmtop. I have had to do the 3-finger salute (soft reboot) on very rare occasions, but the machine came back up without problems. This, like all my email, is being sent with my palmtop, using you-know-what software. And, no, I don't have any connection with D&A, except as a satisfied customer. I'm sorry to hear about your palmtop, but I doubt that it was caused= by WWW/LX. Were you by any chance trying to connect during a thunderstorm? If you assume that all your data is trashed anyway, try taking out ALL the batteries and any card that's in the slot. Leave everything out overnight, put in fresh batteries, and see what happens. -PR ------------ Peniel Romanelli peniel@web2000.net d021785c@dc.seflin.org ******* HP100LX ---- Post/LX ---- WWW/LX ******* Miami, Florida -- Redefining the term "Political Asylum" -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 1 Mar 1998 20:07:07 +0100 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "Daniel Müllegger" Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Daniel Müllegger" Subject: Re: Laplink Comments: To: Michael Connor MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Michael Connor wrote: > > My question is this: do I need the Connectivity pack version > of Laplink?

Not any type of reset, soft OR hard... I had this problem once with my 200LX, the first week I had it. I was running one of the built-in apps (Datacomm) and suddenly the unit locked up. So I tried all the reset combinations, to no avail. Finally I= took out the batteries, and put them back in-- no response. Nothing, from fresh batteries to plugging it in, did anything to help. Finally I= gave up and drove into town to buy a new one. By the time I got back (two hours) I was pretty angry, and got my old 200LX ready to return, but decided to try it just to make sure-- and it came back on and worked= fine. I've never had such a problem again except when doing battery experiments. > I do not accept the concept that a program hang should cause me to= need > to HARD reset and lose valuable files.

We paid TOP DOLLAR for this program...why should I have to install > and learn ANOTHER piece of shareware to make WWW/LX work right??? I also do not accept the concept that a program hang should cause such= a trouble as you reported. To me it sounds like a hardware problem. However, it is possible that a program could lock up the machine requiring = a hardware reset. In fact, somewhere around here I have a little program designed to do just that, which I wrote to test the durability of the 200LX. As far as WWW/LX goes: communications with the 200LX is an inherently dangerous thing, due to the amount of current required for serial ports= to operate reliably and especially if a PCMCIA modem is to be used. Both= the serial port and the PCMCIA socket are intimately tied into the power supply on the motherboard, and if the hardware or connection is having trouble, it is easy enough to crash the machine, or even wipe out the memory. WWW/LX is no safer from such hardware considerations than NetTamer, Datacomm, or any other program that communicates. You cannot reasonably expect a program to be able to overcome a hardware problem-- error correction is only so good. Personally, I have used WWW/LX for quite a while now and never had a problem EXCEPT when I was having PCMCIA card or other serial port trouble. WWW/LX, and especially WWW/LX Plus, is a _WONDERFUL_ program that, for many, makes the difference between buying a 200LX and a WinCE handheld. So please, before we go making accusations about WWW/LX, let's take= a look at the hardware situation, which is the more likely cause of your problems. The purpose of this list is not to make accusations but to help each other with what we need. I would like to hear what modem= you are using, your ISP, and what the line conditions are. If anybody else has any comments, or suggestions, I welcome them. Note that I have no official connections, and receive no benefits whatsoever, from D&A software, except that I am a very happy and grateful user of WWW/LX and Post/LX. -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 1 Mar 1998 16:51:01 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Quinton Jones Jr Subject: Re: WWW/LX Crash!

Yes, we have just started a thread about dBASE. dBASE IV runs quite well on the palmtop, and is probably just what you need. FoxPro has just been reported to work as well, but I've never used the DOS version, so I'm not sure if it will import your files or not. dBASE IV certainly will, though. Of course, then you have the trouble of it being a DOS program (and fairly large at that; a couple of megs at minimum) and not being very graphical, or particularly simple to use, but it is menu driven in addition to the standard dBASE dot prompt, which makes it a lot easier. -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 1 Mar 1998 20:39:22 -0800 Reply-To: bwh@netzone.com Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Brian Hunter Organization: Motorola Inc Subject: Geos\win2.03 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, I'm looking for some help in terms of adding either geos ensemble or windows 2.03 to my 2meg 200lx (plus 8meg flash cord). First question is - is either feasable ? Is either worthwhile ? I realize that I need to delete a number of the files from either system, but with Geos, I appear to be deleting too many and it fails to boot. With windows the links I have found to D\L win2.03 all appear to be down right now. Could some kind soul pls e-mail me the files i need to get either running, ie zip your flash drive !!! Also what do I need to add/change in my autoexec and system startup files etc. Thanks very much for all the help.

What makes you so sure the program locked up and took the hplx with it? It sounds to me like it is much more likely that your pc has a hardware problem which caused it lock up while you were running WWW/LX. Software isn't magic, it can't curse your pc and put a hex on it.

Just wondered if the CPACK apps were close enough to the LX suite to alleviate the stress of changing platforms (tho if they were really successful, they're probably not monitoring this list :( ) Something to think about with the 32mb upgrade looming (and also the WinCE DOS emulator, XT-CE). The time may come in a year or so, when Win9x machines like Libretto/PC110 or WinCE machines improve in size and power usage (compared to the 200LX) to the point where CPACK might serve as a 'transitional' tool...one that would let us use the (as yet non-existent) machine like a 200LX, but also switchable to Win9x or WinCE. Just a thought. - Longden -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 2 Mar 1998 09:14:57 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Mark Jordan Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Mark Jordan Subject: Re: Laplink Comments: To: Nedim MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii The only thing I have tried is running the current laplink that is on the HP 200LX, and running Laplink 5 on my WNT 4.0 box... didn't work.

I could be wrong about this as its been awhile. On the other hand, if this is the case, I suppose one could open up multiple windows (say on the Libretto), and in each window, run CPack, but have a different CPack app open, and Alt-Tab between them. Not sure if it would work or not... I would tend to be careful not to open any one of the apps in more than one window for fear of possible data corruption. ---"Longden C.

Here is a generalization of the results: 80% HP200LX's (1 HP100, 1 HP700) 5 of HP200LX's are doublespeed Only 3 responses used an external modem - most used an internal. Internal Modems Used: MegaHertz:3 , AT&T:1, Simple technologies:1, EXP:1 Software: NetTamer:5, WWW/LX:2, Post/LX:2, DataComm:1, 1stReader:1 Based on this, I am going to do the following: I don't particularly like swapping my flashdisk with the modem, and I have an external modem readily available at my desk, so I will likely use an external modem, except when traveling. I am going to give NetTamer another try (I didn't have good luck with the first attempt, but I didn't try that hard. Customer support was outstanding though, got a nice email with questions for how to get it working, I just didn't follow through. I wasn't even a customer yet). On a related note, I found that DataComm works MUCH better as a terminal program when WINSI.SYS is not installed. With the winsi.sys driver installed, it was slow to the point of unusable, but when I rebooted without it, it worked very well. If you gave up DataComm, that may be why. As you see, one of the user responses I got was a gentleman who uses DataComm to access a shell account. I hope this information is of some use to everyone.

Your doc didn't > explicitly mention support for the DC-20. IMG support in LxPic is a typical 'undocumented feature'. It is the only one I implemented, don't search for others! You may guess the reason, why I did it: I own a DC20. The IMG format is very similar to BMP, I only had to add a few bytes to recognize the IMG extension and skip the IMG header, which is completely different from BMP. I bought a DC20 because it is cheap, small and the battery seems to last forever. Picture quality is poor. But B&W representation on the palmtop is also poor, so it fits together. IMG file size is not the choice for palmtops (130KB for one picture). Comparable JPEG file size would only be 1/10 to 1/5. I did not document IMG support of LxPic, because IMG is a nonstandard format and I always stated not to implement any nonstandard formats into LxPic. But I hope, you understand that I made an exception for myself which will also be useful for some of you ;-) So please don't ask me to extend IMG support or to implement any other digital camera format into LxPic. -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 2 Mar 1998 13:43:43 -0500 Reply-To: Stefan Peichl Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Stefan Peichl Subject: Software modem for the HP200LX?

I heard some WinCE machines have a build in software modem. To my knowledge, a software modem consists of a very fast serial port software and a little piece of hardware. Now I dream: The little piece of hardware should fit into our 10-pin serial port plug with a standard telephone outlet on the other side. The software should allow us to connect at up to 2400 baud. This would be a perfect traveling modem with low power consumption and a free PCMCIA slot to download email. Now I am awake: If there is any chance to build such a modem for a (double speed) HP200LX, I'm willing to write the software. -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 2 Mar 1998 11:50:12 +0000 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Christof Sender: HPLX Mailing List Comments: Authenticated sender is From: Christof Subject: stacvol loses capacity MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT I have got a problem concerning Stacker 4.0.

Stacker (like any other real-time compression "systems") can not predict with 100% accuracy the amount of "free" space. I'm using word predict, because that's what it's doing. Predicting the compress ratio of your "future" files. If you said you had several hundred kb free, at what compression ratio? 2:1, 5:1, 10:1? The real physical space left was probably couple of Kb, and Stacker especially is known to misrepresent amount of free space, when you come close to 0. If this is confusing, maybe somebody more eloquent can explain... Nedim.

Thaddus is selling theirs for US$500. Can anyone justify the extra US$140? Anyway, ideas for Mack of T2T. 1.) Since Simpletech 33.6 modem uses some kind of slot-out phone jack for their modem (and the internals looks like a CompactFlash size), and the Hornet chip can actually take 2 PCMCIA devices, why not have a special version of the Simpletech modem EMBEDDED into the HP200LX? I am sure there will be some space above the PCMCIA slot or somewhere else for a custom version of the modem, and current modem parts are VERY small, and this would be VERY useful (no need for extra modem card) 2.) A backlite solution (I heard Mack is developing a backlite which is a total replacement of the LCD) which uses vampire power (meaning it takes power from the HP200LX) and is able to be "on-able" by a switch on the LCD corner (notice the grey plastic outline on the sides of the panel? Could be used for a simple slider/press switch) or the switch can work like the Pilot kind. Press and hold the On button of the HP200LX, and after 2-3 seconds, the backlight comes on, and when the system is pressed off, the light goes off. 3.) A simple camera addon solution? The PC110 and Sharp WinCE v2.0 has a camera option to take simple pictures. This, in conjunction with the 32Meg RAM upgrade (plus Stacker, of course. :) ) makes a TRUELY compact DTP system. 4.) Enhancement to battery logic to take 3V Lithium ION batteries. These batteries will BLOW the 200LX if placed directly (total of 6v and 2000amp) into it. Maybe there can be a way to make the 200LX accept 6v (stepdown?) Lithium ION Batteries. 5.) Replacement ruggedised casing with G-shock kind of gel protection+waterproofing of internal Hornet and RAM systems (meaning the 200LX can contact water, but NOT submerged). 6.)

Christof, if you are satisfied that the stacker drive is healthy (you said you ran check but check/d is better) then its a matter of the file types stored on the drive. Perhaps you are keeping files that do not compress well on the stacker drive? Like executables for example. Try moving any exe's that you can off the stacker drive and you will improve the compression ratio and dramatically increase the free space at the same time... If your compression ratio is approaching anything like 1.5:1 using maxspace settings then your files are not very compressible!

Check the list archives for a few weeks back for a thread on this (conversion of DC-20 image files). I found 2 relevant pieces of software, one at a Japanese site that converts img to bmp and some 'standard issue' software at Simtel that converts bmp to jpg.

See excellent article on SUPER website. Well, this has me confused. I finally dug up this post from the HP-LX archives, and then went to the SUPER site and read the referenced article. It doesn't appear to have anything whatsoever to do with running the APP200 (CPACK) program from a windowed screen. Perhaps this capability is a side effect of loading the LLRA driver, but it certainly wasn't obvious from the article. Can someone who is running LLRA on a Windows 95 computer please explain further??? -Chris Lott *********************************************************************** R.

You need to run a disk optimizer on your C: drive to make all the files contiguous, as it needs one unbroken block of free space for the swap file. Software Carousel has OPTIMIZE.EXE, and there are other programs available that will do the job nicely. -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 3 Mar 1998 07:22:59 -0800 Reply-To: "Longden C.

At 100 pages, you need to make sure there's 1,702,400 bytes of CONTIGUOUS space. Most likely your C drive is somewhat fragmented from previous deletes. If that's the case, you should pack the existing data using one of the various 'defrag' utilities...or do it the old fashioned way: backup and reformat the drive, build the emm area (using instemm) and reload all the other files. There's no good way (that I know of) to determine your current largest contiguous space without using a 3rd party utility. Your 33 page success seems to be saying you have about 1/2 mb of contiguous free space (33 * 16 * 1024 bytes). - Longden -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 3 Mar 1998 10:19:40 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , jjohnson@TMCC.COM Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Jim Johnson Subject: Re: 32Meg RAM upgrade+Ideas for Mack Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII I could probably justify the $360 upgrade.

The price also includes the speed upgrade. Running programs from ram is so fast that the upgrade is worth it on that basis alone. The 200LX is now a full fledged, totally usable PC. This has to be experienced for one to have a full understanding of how wonderfull it is. As to the 620LX, I have played with it a bit. The Times2 32 meg machine just slays it. A back light is the only thing missing on the 200LX now. IMHO, there is no need for touch screens etc. Any other garbage added would just make the 200LX more cumbersome, like it's bloated WinCE brethren.

Moreover I deleted two folders to free space. After that I got free space but only enough to copy _one_ folder back. Space was simply gone. There was much to less space for the second. In the meantime I ran check /d and it showed up no errors and a compression ratio of 1.4:1 and a degree of fragmentation of 0% (I ran defrag several times). I am lost... I guess I have to reinstall the whole stacker drive and - more important - have to accept that 0 bytes free on a journey is impossible to cure :-( Regards, Christof ----------------------------------------------------- computing power is a function of distance - HP 200 LX -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 3 Mar 1998 21:19:52 +0200 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Alexander Stanovoy Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Alexander Stanovoy Subject: Fw: PLEASE READ!

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hi, I'm a new 200lx user. I have a stacked 1.8MB HP flash disk (4096 bytes/sector). The best compression that I could get was only 1.2:1. I reformated the flash disk using 1024 bytes/sector utility. Amazingly, I could load all the contents of the stacked flash to this newly formated disk and still had a little space left. Since I wanted to cram more stuffs in the disk, I deleted all the contents and restacked the disk (1024 bytes/sector) and reloaded all the contents. Interestingly, after restacking the disk I got less space (probably used by the stacker software). I can;t see the advantage of using stacker. What does the stacker do in a compressed disk? Does it compress the data/softwares? or does it compress only the unused bytes in each sector? Did I do something wrong? I would appreciate any suggestions.

My 200 LX has been giving me "Esc - low main battery warning" when I turn it on at alkaline battery levels of 2.62 and with buddy and filer showing the battery to be 3/4 full. Since this did not happen with my older 100LX I thought there might be something wrong with the LX itself. Today I ignored the warnings for a while and when I tried to turn the LX on, it would flash on and immediately shut itself off. With the LX off, I then, on a hunch, removed my 3 year old stacked "DoubleFlash Plus" card and now the LX turned on and ran just fine. It would not however do so when I re-inserted the flash card. When I put in new batteries, everything was fine again. ................................................................................................ So it seems as if my 200 LX needs an extra-ordinary amount of battery power to run with the stacked 10MB card in. Could this be due to the card needing more energy than it used to - because it is getting older, or the connection in the newer 200 LX is different or defective? Is there any way to test this or assess how much power the card is needing? Does the fact that the card is almost full or older make a difference? Thanks.

If one is putting a lot of executable files (*.exe & *.com) on the compressed volume, there will be a definite pursing of lips as the reported space simply vanishes! Compression utilities work on a "Projected" average of possible efficiency hoping that a lot of the files will be text or spreadsheets. These have large areas of their structure totally empty, but reserved. This means they compress well, some WFW files can bo to 1/16th of the initial size, but executable code is by nature dense and has very little "slack space" to compress. Picture files, too, often have their own internal compression routine, so do not compress at all. Unfortunately, the size of your card also works against you, as it is all to easy to fill as you have found. i have two 5meg SanDisk cards (highly recommended!) and two 1.8meg Casio cards. i have experimented with stacker and do not run it because of the overhead in memory, the loss/assignation of drive letters, and the lack of stability of the machine under repetitive reboots. i do a lot of software evaluation and need a machine that can be hard restarted over and over without having to worry about loading a special driver to access all my files. On the other side of the coin, there are plenty of people out there that use compression and have never (touch wood!) had a heart-stopping moment... imho, there is nothing like size! Beg, borrow, ste** the necessary to get the biggest card you can! i am saving at the moment for something like 40-45megs as i can put everything i use in that space with room for data. My list of programs goes like this: XTree Gold Essential! .5-2.0meg Fast Lynx 2.0 Essential! .1meg Nettamer Essential! .5meg WP Office Extremely useful. 2.6meg Win 2.03 Extremely useful. 1.4meg Excel 2.1 Extremely useful. .6meg Word for Windows Extremely useful. .8meg dbase IV Extremely useful. 1.8-4.0meg Works for Dos Extremely Useful. .5meg David Lawrence katana@clear.net.nz Net-Tamer V 1.09 - Test Drive -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 3 Mar 1998 16:38:35 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "William T.

About two months ago, I got old copies of Ultima I and II and tried them out on my HP200LX. Ultima I runs great, it was alot of fun, and I played the whole way though. Only caveat was that I had to darken the screen a bit to be able to see the lighter shades. UI was also very well behaved. It didn't use up too much RAM and switched to other programs just fine. Ultima II also ran, but not so well. While the RAM requirement was fine, it didn't allow me to switch to other programs, or even to turn off the HP. Worse still, given that these were games from a very bygone era of the sort that didn't use command.com to boot up (the originals didn't, at least - you put them in your PC and turned it on. The copy I had was sufficient hacked to run under command.com just fine), there is no way to exit the program. While this applied to both UI and UII, it wasn't a problem in UI since I could switch to task manager and close the DOS session. Furthermore, Ultima II didn't have a sound disable like UI did; not only was it annoying, but the sounds took a decent bit of time to play for many of the common actions within the game. So, Ultima II didn't spend a lot of time on my machine. Of course, these comments may not be all valid. I'm sure that the versions included in the recently released package have been cleaned up a bit, and I should hope they have an exit to DOS feature :) I wish I had found a copy of Ultima III again... That was the first one I ever played (back on my PCjr, heh), although I do recall seeing the Ultima II box in the store (back then PC's were in department stores, imagine that )... Speaking of RPG's... I always loved the old SSI D&D games such as Curse of the Azure Bonds, Secret of the Silver Blades, Dark Queen of Krynn, etc. Does anyone know if any of the older ones might work on the HP (and of so, wher e to get a hold of a copy)?

On the unstacked portion, I have some programs which are just too slow on the stacked part. Does anyone know how to make both the stacked and unstacked portion of the card visible/available at the same time ? When I have stacker activated, an F drive appears, but I cannot access it. I have thought about partitioning the flash card, but fdisk100 does not appear to allow this to be done. I copied fdisk (DOS 5.0) and tried that but it does not recognise any of the 'disks' as fixed and quits. At the moment, I have a script file which goes to DOS, switches off stacker, runs the program I want. When it is done, it reverses this procedure. Does anyone have any experience/answers to this ? Ideally, to have the unstacked portion appear as a separate drive (and I have lastdrive set to Z). TIA David BIRD P.S. thanks to those who answered my wced query last week.

I am still attempting to get Post/LX running properly. This has been an ongoing process for some considerable time now, I'm due to take a business trip very shortly, and I need to be able to get mail. DAsoft says that I should be using a CHAP script, but if I do, When I try to run either WWWLX or Post/LX, both programs will go as far as-- dialing negotiating LCP... done authentication... done negotiating IPCP... done PCP connection established After this WWWLX locks the machine to where I must remove the batts and reinstall every bit of software over. Post/LX will churn for a while, say 3-5 minutes, then give me a message "started Laplink Remote Access" and some other such. Never will actually do anything useful. I have to do a "hard" reset to get out of this, but dont have to reinstall software. I kind of see the CHAP script as less than desirable to use, at this juncture... If I use the ISP_PPP script and lengthen the wait times to 15-25, WWWLX will run fine. Can surf the net, all is well. If I dont try to change the Post/LX setup, can receive email, but not send, because my folder is not yet set up right, I think. If I go into the setup, (to tell Post/Lx where my outgoing folder will be, etc.) then the program will get to the point where it says "negotiating IPCP" then give me an "aborting, could not establish connection" message and exit to the reader. The POP3 and SMPT addresses, user name, password, and email address are all correct. I R dazed, confused, etc... Any suggestions would be appreciated. -- _______________________________________________ mark beutler mycroft_h@bigfoot.com "one man's theology is another man's belly laugh" _______________________________________________ -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 3 Mar 1998 23:27:43 EST Reply-To: tcbordp@vbbusnw1.tc.cc.va.us Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Peter W.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Today I alleviating the boredom of work with a little bit of vintage Q-Bert action (w00 h00! (It's some clone version, anyone want a copy let me know)), when the batteries started to politely notify me they were feeling a bit low. In my block-jumping-color-changing fury, I politely ignored this message and played on gleefully. This worked just fine until, after a while, the batteries decided politeness wouldn't work and just shut down the HP. I refused to take the hint, as I wanted to enter a few things in the Appointment Book before I forgot them. Basically, I'd hit a few keys, have control for a few seconds, the palmtop would go off, and I'd turn it back on again, etc, slowly accomplishing my task. This was going just fine (albeit it slowly) and I had one more thing to add to the ToDo list. I hit add, and was just starting to type when it became obvious that it wasn't responding to my typing. Then I noticed that the time was highly accelerated - the little clock graphic's minute hand was spinning around rapidly and it seemed to be registering one minute for every second that passed. I found I couldn't quit out, nor swap to another EXM app, or even turn it off via the button. Alarmed, I promptly popped the batteries out for a moment as I have done dozens of times when trying out old misbehaving DOS games. I couldn't turn it on afterwards since the batteries were very low. I brought it home and plugged it into the AC and everything seems just fine. I'm just wondering if anyone knows what happened or if this has ever happened to anyone else.

Steven, Have you looked at LXPPP (see my web page for details) ? It's got a POP implementation that works with PNR (Palmtop News Reader). It might be interesting to you to see what a "competing" (as far as free software that includes source code can be competing) implementation provides.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii This is a followup to a previous post I made within the past 1.5 weeks regarding my slow access to my database apps. For those who are interested, I found and tried a utility on SUPER called FASTDB that supposedly attempts to speed data manipulation actions. My opinion... it works great. My new entries or modified entries into my database apps used to take up near 8 seconds per save... now they are at about 2 seconds! You can read the accompanying doc file for more info, but in general it works by preventing the file from defraging itself on every database write action, thus the file will grow quite large during its current use... but the file will ultimately defrag and shrink once closed, which I do every so often for safety sake.

I found one negative side effect with FASTDB that caused me to stop using it. I like the application "DBCALC"; it allows you to calculate numeric fields that it extracts from a GDB. The configuration for DBCALC is done with a GDB template. If you use FASTDB, the template GDB's trash does not get emptied as you don't make enough modifications to it for the trash collection to trigger. This causes bogus entries to show up in the DBCALC screen. I did not want the overhead of having to create and delete extra records just so FASTDB would tidy up. Mitch S.U.P.E.R.

I tried this before and got the message: "This program requires at least a 286 CPU". Defrag of DOS 6.0 also does'nt work because this requires at least DOS 6.0. As You could read on the list that OPTIMIZE, a tool included in SOFTWARE CAROUSEL, does the job. Because I think that no one has DOG any more (?) I'm also still looking after a free utility to defrag C: and not having to do the odd "backup-delete-and restore-job" to get C: defragmented. To find a abandonware-defrag-utility would be a good job for the members of the list! (nobody says anything about weeklong discussing about a 32 mB ram-update ore useful themes like that ). I found out two days ago that OPTIMIZE of DRDos (by former Digital Research, now CALDERA) works very well for FlashDisk A: (unfortunately not for C:), even if compressed with Stacker 3.0. You can find this for free on there homepage (http://www.caldera.com/dos/html/choose.html) included in the DRDos702-Package.

What is the "d\utils" on the 2nd line for? A typo? I run "timeout ld" which disables light sleep. "timeout d" just disables the display timeout. What's the relationship between light-sleep and screen timeout? Also, if you normally run your LX with "com1 port power in DOS: off", you may need to add the serctl command. Following is what I use: @echo off timeout ld rem select wired channel for com1 and then start intersvr d:\bin\serctl /w a:\msdos\intersvr.exe /baud:115200 /com:1 /b d:\bin\serctl /o timeout le - Longden -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 4 Mar 1998 07:37:28 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "Longden C.

I put copies of Pool of Radiance, Curse of Azure, Secret of Silver Blades, and Dragons of Flames on my ftp, in the SSI folder. See the files section on my web page, URL below. The biggest and yet oldest -- Pool of rad -- worked (a bit slowly) on the LX. I had to run the conf.exe and edit the cfg file to match my paths. Haven't tested the others.

Cut and paste to a simple file, ie "\a.txt", jump to another shell, read the file back and paste it. Clunky, but simple. You could also load an old TSR like Sidekick before SC and kick it up anywhere, but then you still wouldn't really be using the cut-and-paste buffer (just the Sidekick notepad)...and you'd be giving up alot of memory to boot.

Jeff, the DF cards are very picky about the _type_ of alkalines you feed them as far as i can recall. I believe that the Duracell double a's don't work properly but energizer does. In any event using alkalines with a flashcard (especially the df cards) is not recommended because of the high drain on the cells during writing/reading the card and the internal resistance of alkaline cells. You will not have that problem with nicads or nimhs but if you do, then there _is_ a problem hiding somewhere....

I also think that by the time it is available commercially it will do BASE64 decoding. The decoding does _not_ require any additional software other than the email program itself. 5) It allows one to start writing an email, then save it and come back later to finish the particular email. This is quite handy for someone like me who is constantly getting interrupted. 6) The software allows you to attach a signature file (as you can see below). 7) Since the software allows more than one mail host, you can have more than one configuration for outgoing mail, i.e. return address, name, etc.. Although the software is in it's alpha state, it has matured into a very, stable little set-up. I just learned this morning of some other neat features which are going to be incorporated into the next version and I suspect that it won't be too long before the software is released as shareware. I think the advantage, for someone like myself, of this email program versus the LXPPP set-up is the ease of configuration and how the software handles the setting up of the packet driver. Basically, if you know what number you dial into, the name of your POP & SMTP hosts, your login name and password you can have it up and running in just a few minutes. I have found a few quirks in helping Steve test the software as has he and as of this latest alpha version everything works just like it should :-) I really like this little program and I think that's the key, "little". It'll run on a 1MB 100LX from an icon in App Manager without having to Terminate, All Applictions. Stay tuned...

Let's add Wasteland to the list of great RPGs. Wasteland is set in the Nevada desert after a nuclear war. Instead of Wizards and Ogres you fight Mutants and robots :-) The only problem with Wasteland is that a lot of the game's plot was stored in paragraphs in the manual. Thus you may see messages such as "Read paragraph 3". This is annoying since you need to have the paragraphs on the LX (or have the original manual) and quit the game, read the paragraph, and reenter. Even better would be to swap out of the game (SC or similar program), read the paragraph and swap back again. I don't know if swapping is possible, though. I think this holds true for Bard's tale as well.

The advantage of viewer is it will look into files much faster than Memo can load them and even faster than F8 in Filer and skipping from file to file is childs-play. Putting the files: viewer.adn viewer.txt viewer.sym viewer.123 into the default directory that 123 looks in (where the file 123.cnf is kept) and loading it will allow you to browse *.txt (as well as *.w* files) and see a decent amount in each file with the arrow keys skipping from file to file and drive/directory to drive/directory until you find the one you want. As 123 is sysmanager based, you can have it open as a browser and have Memo also open to read in the file you seek.

Martin's willing to supply email service to all palmtoppers *FOR FREE*. Yes, that's Zero Cost! He says that espmail (the parent service of palmtop.com) is doing fine from providing ccmail -> internet services for corporations, and he'd love to have palmtoppers use the palmtop.com service, since it's established, and it wasn't a big moneymaker anyway. To sign up for service: Go to the web page http://www.espmail.com/palmtop.htm. He'd like everyone to know that for free, he can't maintain the 800 number service, and the fax gateway service has been defunct for some time, but if you want/need email on the palmtop without taking up valuable RAM for programs, palmtop.com works great! This message was sent from there... I just have Martin put a reply-to on my normal POP mail. The downside to palmtop.com is that if you're not local to the Silicon Valley, CA area, then it's a long-distance phone call from your location. However, it is free... You be the judge! This wasn't meant to go postal on Goin' Postal... I think the LX has needed a tiny, efficent POP mailer for a LONG time now...one that does nothing but send/receive mail. Anyway, enjoy having the most flexible palmtop around!

If you're like me, you run lots of old DOS games that don't allow you to exit the program without a hard reboot. Well, this always messes up my NiCad battery setting as well as my preferred contrast setting. I now have an LXSTAT line in my AUTOEXEC.BAT file to correct this: lxstat N D C 17 N changes the battery setting to NiCads; D C 17 changes display contrast to 17 (scale from 1-31, I think). I also use LXSTAT in batch files before I run games which do not allow you to turn off the sound effects/music. Ex: lxstat v 0 - turns off speaker game.exe lxstat v 1 - turns speaker back on to low volume (1-3 scale) If you don't have it, LXSTAT is freeware available from eddie.mit.edu at: ftp://eddie.mit.edu/pub/hp95lx/NEW/lxstat.zip Cheers.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII I've been wondering... Wouldn't it be possible to speed up disk access on the HP by installing a disk-cache? I think it should work and since most cache-programs can use EMS, little conventional memory need to be used. It should even speed up access to the ram drive a little, since EMS is faster than disk access (even though it is the same RAM). A possible danger is that you remove your flash-card before everything is written. However, most programs have a switch to force writing, so you could just use that. So, has anyone tried to do this?

I'm wondering if it makes sense to do this on a flash card. On a disk, yes, it is good to have all the blocks in a file adjacent to each other so you don't have to waste time moving the disk heads around. However, flash memory has no heads, nothing moves, and is solid-state. So I assume that access time to a given block is fixed and not changed by whatever block was referenced just before it. Am I wrong on this, is this not how flash cards work?

Someone was having problems installing EMS on their LX cuz the program that creates the EMS swap space wasn't finding the contiguous disk space it needed for a fast swap (speed probably aided by bypassing the FAT, therefore the need for contiguity).

The program I use is optimize.exe (69.2 kb) which came with Software Carousel. It is fast and works very similar to the Norton and MS defrag utilities which you are familiar with. Remember, even though WE know that the PC-Card is not the same as a regular Hard Drive with spinning silicon disks and and read/write head, DOS is pretty ignorant to this fact. It treats the storage medium the same way as far as clusters, reading, writing, deleting...etc. Over a long period of time, files do get fragmented all over the place.

Actually, two of these programs can indeed be located on the net... a very useful site for this type of thing is FTPSearch (http://ftpsearch.ntnu.no).

I usually go by date to figure which is most recent, and you can just download a copy of the more frequently occuring filesizes and figure out which one is the right one. Interestingly enough, gdfrag.zip appears to be only 1.4 or 1.5k!

However, it doesn't matter that they are fragmented, because there is no difference in overhead or speed when reading blocks from a file that are adjacent, as opposed to reading blocks that are scattered all over the flash card. It's like there is no difference in total access time when reading locations 1-5 from RAM versus reading locations 1,93,12,142,44 (five arbitrary locations). As a few others pointed out for me (thanks Cavendish and Longden!) it does make sense for an EMS driver to want contiguous blocks. It bypasses the FAT file system to avoid the overhead of using it, i.e. accessing directories, following free block list pointers, etc. It accesses the flash (or disk) directly.

Well, at least the part of it which has 4 characters that correspond to the moon phases. As far as I know these were the only four characters in the set. I am not sure where the other stuff was added, but it may be the original built-in font. In any case, I have no specific knowledge that that was use in Pal library. Avi M.

It fools the system to believe it has _expected_ space, not real space. If you tell stacker to compress, and you expect the data to compress say 3-to-1, i.e. store 30mb on a 10mb stacked device, then chkdsk will think it has 30mb. Check knows the truth. Neither is a good indication. Chkdsk is fooled. Check gives the current condition. But: Let's say you have 1MB left. and you think, oh good I can store 3:1, i.e. a 3mb file there. But let's say it is a large GIF. That will compress IN REALITY only by 1-2% to say 2.7mb. so there will not be room for it, even though you _tol_ stacker to compress 3:1! It is a case of slight miunderstanding: What you tell stacker is one thing, what it can do for you is another. Some data compresses well ("it is full of air") as spreadsheets. Other data does not compress at all! Stacker will do what it can for you. You can also have tough situations that are confusing: Filer reports say 3mb (really only 1mb for real in our example). You copy some files in, and boom! you run out of space in what seems to be premature time! Not so... It depends what you move in! If it is executables, they compress very little, and the compression ratio is closer to 1:1 than 1:3. OTOH, spreadsheets you can move and move and move, and the space seems to be unending :)....

It's freeware or unrestricted shareware (can't remember), works nicely, and allows total control of the optimization process through configuration files. I know the latest is not very user-friendly, but I like it because it gives me total control. For example, you can force a specific file to be placed before of after all others (this is great when changing the compressed disk size with jam, because then the voulme file doesn't get fragmented).

Much has been made recently about the questionable benefits of using disk defraggers on a flash card. The argument against is usually that there are no moving parts in the flash card and hence no performance gains to be had by consolidating the file clusters in one area (since there's no head movement or spinning platter to account for). I don't know how DOS deals with files at the FAT level, but it's possible that it treats contiguous entries differently (possibly affected by the BUFFERS statement in config.sys?). To test this out (groan...I know...ANOTHER test), I used chkdsk to locate a 76k flash disk file that was in 15 non-contiguous fragments and made a contiguous copy also. I ran a batch file that just read a given file 200 times in a single run (using the command "copy xxx.dat nul >nul", 200 times), and got these results: Contiguous file: 41 sec Non-contig file: 45 sec I ran the test on each file 3 times, alternately and from outside SysMgr. The times above are average figures, but in fact, they never deviated for each of the 3 runs on each file (timed using Norton TimeMark). My config.sys is set to the usual BUFFERS=20. It appears there is some effect on performance due to fragmenting. Comments are welcomed. - Longden -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 5 Mar 1998 18:51:26 -0600 Reply-To: speters@kdsi.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Stan Peters Subject: Re: File fragmentation and performance MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit If you still have those files, could you try writing to (ie overwriting) those two files.

For that test, my internal C drive took an average of 3.46 sec as compared to a 40mb Simple Tech ATA drive which took 5.82 sec...really not that bad by comparison. I doubt the C drive would have the flash file problems you mentioned (being not a flash disk), so the write problems of which you speak of for the flash card are either trivial or perhaps fixed for the newer cards. Your explanation could account for some of the really slow times clocked by some of the people reporting those test results (with times as long as 223 sec compared to my 5.82 sec). You mentioned about overwriting my 2 test files from the fragmentation test, but I'm not sure what that would serve to prove.

It doesn't change the problem at all. Sometimes I have had this problem with messages that have no subject or body (not just when read by READER, but actually on the POP server). My solution is usually to telnet to the pop server, which, if your server is mail.umn.edu, you could do by going telnet mail.umn.edu:110 with www/lx's telnet package or telnet mail.umn.edu 110 with most any UNIX telnet. USER and PASS commands get you logged in. Then do a TOP command on the offending message to see what it is, i.e. TOP 84 10 to display the first 10 lines (and the whole header) of the 84th message. Usually it's garbage, so I just do a DELE 84 and QUIT, and then can download the other messages fine. If you can access your mailbox with Pine, from a shell account, it's even easier: just go in and delete the message. But most people aren't lucky enough to have a shell account. FYI, if you want to see the inner details of what's going on with WWW/LX and Post/LX, start the programs with the -d9 option for maximum debugging level. Then you'll get to see what's going on behind the scenes. -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 5 Mar 1998 20:30:17 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Andrew Carpenter Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Andrew Carpenter Subject: power key MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable When the off key is pressed while a recently written application is = active the program stops running (hangs) but the 200LX does not power = off.

I often put my flash card into my laptop to download text files. After downloading 3-5 megs of text/source files to the card, and before putting the card back into my HP200, I usually invoke the Win95 defrag option. It often informs me that the flash card is (usually only slightly) fragmented. The defragment operation occurs very quickly, probably because of the small size of the card, but mainly ( I feel ) because the memory pointer operations are dealing with flash memory.

It's efficient because memory is much faster than disk. But in the case of the 200LX, the internal disk resides in memory too, so both the disk sectors and the cached ones have the same access time. Probably it would be even worse because of the overhead of the cache program code. For flashdisks in A, the same happens. Flash disks are slow for writing, but for reading they're very fast, probably not as much as the internal RAM, but I'm sure the difference is not worth the internal memory used for caching. Regards.

The DoubleSlot Expander (Port Replicator) prooves it. But this is a very unhandy solution. Now if one could build a CompactFlash DoubleSlot Expander in the PCMCIA adapter card for the CompactFlash, you could use two CF cards in your palmtop. Should look like: +-----------------------\-+ | PCMCIA Adapter Card | | +-------+ +-------+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CF b: | | CF a: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +-------+ +-------+ | | | | | +-----------------------/-+ The usefulness of such an adapter card would be tremendous: Your investment in a 10MB CF is not lost if you upgrade to a 64MB CF. Put both in the palmtop and use CF b also in your digital camera. Think of the announced 128MB CF cards from VIKING. Take two and Stacker them to 512MB flash memory in your palmtop. And if we soon see CompactModems, this adapter would be a perfect modem/flash combi card. You put the modem in slot b and remove it if not used to save power. Your flash remains in slot a.

Toshiki also is invaluable when it comes to making Japanese applications available to the world palmtop community. He and Jorgen have also written several nice apps.

Actually, Pretec already does have a CompactModem. 56K, and according= to their web site specs it doesn't look like it takes to much current. I agree the dual CF adapter would be great, but how much current does= each card require? If we put two in there, might it not overwhelm the socket? Just a thought.

Martin's willing to supply email service to all palmtoppers *FOR FREE*. Yes, that's Zero Cost! He says that espmail (the parent service of palmtop.com) is doing fine from providing ccmail -> internet services for corporations, and he'd love to have palmtoppers use the palmtop.com service, since it's established, and it wasn't a big moneymaker anyway. To sign up for service: Go to the web page http://www.espmail.com/palmtop.htm. He'd like everyone to know that for free, he can't maintain the 800 number service, and the fax gateway service has been defunct for some time, but if you want/need email on the palmtop without taking up valuable RAM for programs, palmtop.com works great! This message was sent from there... I just have Martin put a reply-to on my normal POP mail. The downside to palmtop.com is that if you're not local to the Silicon Valley, CA area, then it's a long-distance phone call from your location. However, it is free... You be the judge! This wasn't meant to go postal on Goin' Postal... I think the LX has needed a tiny, efficent POP mailer for a LONG time now...one that does nothing but send/receive mail. Anyway, enjoy having the most flexible palmtop around!

Since EMS is faster than disk (when swapping), using a cache should also make an improvement. (The EMS driver goes directly to the hardware, and thus it is faster) In any case, write-behind cache should make a difference, also on the C-drive.

I've never used Palmtop.com or cc:mail, so I don't know how fast the service is or if the mail client is fast and automated. Assuming it is, the phone charges at least within the U.S. should be negligible. Anyone paying more than 10 cents/per minute long distance 24 hours per day 7 days a week just haven't shopped around. Because this comes up from potential customers I often survey my users about this. They typically average 1-2 minutes daily connect time to dowload their email and other conferences and upload their replies, and average $5/month in long distance charges. Hope this helps.

Cameron" Because if all you need is e-mail, why bother with a PPP connection? Also, web-based e-mail requires you to be connected to your ISP while you read and write your e-mail. This means (depending on your ISP) you may incur cost (long-distance charges or per minute charges) or at the very least battery drain. The final issue is that you can use cc:Mail without having a memory-enhanced palmtop (since the client program is built into ROM). In addition, some people can't make their PPP clients work. - Danny Daniel Z.

It would be handy to know this to decide When the cpu is not doing something and the light sleep is turned ON, the cpu will basically stop running. It will draw almost nothing from the battery. When it is called upon to do something it immediately wakes up and continues working at normal speed. This is the normal mode of the cpu. You can turn OFF light sleep, i.e. the cpu will run at full speed all the time, even when it is not doing anything! > exactly when and where to turn it off in a program.

The 95LX doesn't have a database like "Database" on the Ý12¨00LX. You may be able to find a replacement on Eddie (see below), though. > Where can 95LX list and/or programs be found? "Eddie" is the largest collection, but it also includes Ý12¨00LX programs, so you'll have to look before you download.

CGA compatible display (the 95LX has a non-standard display), better battery-life (although 95 battery life is not that bad), better applications, a little faster, and DOS 5 (95LX has v3.3). For keeping track of appointments and such, the 95LX could probably do, but for text-editing, the display is too small - the built-in 95LX applications only offer 40x16 characters! Basically, the 200LX is a "scaled up" 95LX. You can e-mail me if you have specific questions - I used the 95LX for years, before recently upgrading to the 200LX.

And not only that. 800 number (with at least 8 to 16 in-lines) or just simple (local) phone lines, with all the equipment (like Ascend or Livingstone) are MUUUCH more expensive than let's say 512K dedicated pipe to the Internet. Even 256K would be more that enough for e-mail service, for 5000 people. Nedim.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Dear HPLX-L members; I do most all of my Internet work from a shell account that I telnet into. I've been interested in using pgp, but obviously can't use it in the shell account and haven't been willing to go through the hassle of downloading, encrypting, and uploading sequence to use it on my own computer. With the ability of the LX's System Manager to cut and paste between applications, I thought I could cut out much of the hassle. My plan was to cut from Data Comm, paste into Memo, edit and save, run pgp to sign, reopen in Memo, cut and paste back into Data Comm, and then post or mail using the UNIX app I already had open. I figured if it worked I could automate many of the steps with macros. In principle it seems to work, but there is (at least) one major flaw. When I cut from Data Comm, I get spaces at the end of each line. They run out to 80 characters and have no line feed at the end. I can automate WordPerfect to reformat this into lines without the trailing spaces and with the line feeds, but I don't really want to run WP on my 200LX until I get the speed upgrade. Is there a workaround using Memo? I've looked at PAL Edit and suspect it may do what I want too, but I don't have enough experience with it yet to say for sure. Any ideas or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Say what???? . Why is that? The web is merely one service that utilizes the Internet. Email doesn't require a dedicated connection at all and it certainly doesn't require the web. It also doesn't require a PPP connection of ANY kind. Here, I move several megs of email daily through two different domains (airpower.com and airgunhq.com), without ANY dedicated connection. The email server for each domain merely dials up and connects 3 times per hour via uucp to pick up and deliver mail and news. This is done via normal 28.8k dial-up lines and, while it's much more expensive than your typical personal ppp account, it's much LESS expensive than a dedicated leased line. It gives us virtual real-time turn around on email and our users seem quite happy with it. The web is NOT the sum of the Internet, it's just one service.

The way you are handling mail is based on a system that was developed well before the internet as we know it, when mail mainly only existed on large systems. I am glad it works for you but I think you are probably on the trailing edge of the spectrum. :-) As far as the original question, while the term "web" was misused in place of internet the question is still valid. If this company supports email access they are probably permanently connected to the internet and hosting a pop mail server for remote access wouldn't be a big issue. A pop mail server would probably be much easier to set up and administer than their current dial in system. Pete PS.

As to cost, I wish I COULD get a dedicated connection 256k for anything near what I pay for 2 uucp connections, but I can't, at least not in the Phila. area. I'll be glad to be proven wrong though - email me privately the details - PLEASE! As to range, our Internet goes world-wide too, as does our PSTN. We're not limited to any one area either. -> Anyways, I'm not sure that this group is the right place for this -> discussion! -> Nedim. Absolutely Nedim, let's take it private from here on. Let me just end with one note that might be appreciated by 200LX'ers - our online service and email servers are totally DOS-based, no windows.

As to trailing edge, no more so than Palmtop users in general. For, the whole system works without any need for a PPP connection and the resulting overhead, either for our server connecting to our provider, nor for our clients connecting to our BBS. On the user end, all they need is their Palmtop and it's built in Datacom, plus a modem, and if they wish to get fancy, an offline qwk reader. One like SLMR takes only less than 300k, much less than that if stepped on with Pklite. How does that compare to something like, Outlook, Eudora, net-Tamer? Must it take up more RAM and storage to be superior? As to throughput, we get faster rates on our direct uucp connect to our provider, or our direct serial connects to our users, than I ever see via PPP connection of the same bandwidth? Must throughput be slower to be superior? As to content, the private data nets (Fidonet, Paul Revere Net, Seeknet, for example) we carry in additon to Internet, are SPAM and obscenity free. Must SPAM and XXX be present for superior technology? It works. It works WELL. And a Palmtopper can grab his/her email along with some enjoyable SPAM-free conferences, and be on/off in less than 2 minutes. It's PROVEN technology, not trailing edge!

Ian, You are right, it is impossible to access simultaneously the stacked and unstacked portions of a removable media. This is the main reason why, after having used Stacker 3.0 and Stacker 4.0 for 3 years, I switched to JAM which gives the same compression ratio as Stacker 4.0 and SIMULTANEOUS access to the uncompressed portion for time-critical operations.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Light sleep on the palmtop is automatically enabled by calling INT16H keyboard sevices, which every reasonable program does. In light sleep, the CPU clock is OFF, but VCC, DISPLAY, TIMER CLOCK and HFO is ON. After a configurable timeout value (default is 3 minutes) the palmtop falls into deep sleep with everything OFF. Any interrupt occuring during light sleep wakes up the CPU and resets the timeout value to the configured value. Some programs (like Windows) bypass or through away the built in INT16H interrupt handler and set up their own, which means, that light sleep mode is never entered and special palmtop keys are not recognized (like On/Off key). My TSR program SLEEPON.COM tries to corrects this successfully with Windows but obviously not with MS Word :-( For further information about the palmtops power managment see also the SDK pages 4-144 and 14-563. My TSR program LXPRO allows you to change the timeout value in a range of 1 to 60 minutes and you may also switch timeout OFF. If you do that, light sleep and deep sleep are disabled, which means, the CPU is running full speed until your batteriess die. I use this feature of LXPRO to test my batteries. Yesterday I tested my new T2T 1350 NIMH batteries. After their very first charge (which you can do with LXPRO) they gave me 12 hours of full speed CPU (no read/write operations) on my DoubleSpeed 8MB palmtop. My old Panasonic 1100 NiMH only lasted for 9.5 hours under the same test situation. This is a good step ahead in battery technology! -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 7 Mar 1998 22:16:05 +0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Chuck Locsin Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Chuck Locsin Subject: how to setup system password MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Just wanted to know how to setup the system pasword on my 200lx ____ __ __ __ __ _____ __ __ __/ /_/ / / / / ___ / / / / /_ __ / /_/ / /___ / ____/ / / / ____/ _____/ __/\__\ -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 7 Mar 1998 09:31:06 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , mdstockr Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: mdstockr Subject: Re: how to setup system password Comments: To: Chuck Locsin Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=ISO-8859-1 See page 1-4 in 200LX manual.

You can have errors in the FAT on hard disk, flash, RAM, whatever. What intrigues me are Longden's benchmarks that show that non contiguous file access is somewhat slower in the HP200. Since raw flash access speed is constant regardless of block address, this would imply that there is extra work involved in accessing non-contiguous files. If contiguous files were marked as such in the FAT, the BIOS code for computing the address of the 'next' block in a file could be much simpler. It would be 'add one to the last block address to get the next block address'. If the file were not contiguous, you would have to go through a table to find the next block address. This table, which lists the addresses of the blocks for the file, resides in the FAT on the flash. This extra flash access to get at the table is the higher overhead for non-contiguous files. However, we would need to look at the BIOS code to see if this was true.

There is no average per se. It really depends on the data. A disk full of GIFs will get 1:1.01, and a disk full of spreadsheets may get 1:8 or as high as 1:16. Stac used a "benchmark mix" of files, to evaluate Stacker 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 etc. That is where the 2.0:1 for S3 and 2.5 for S4 comes from.

If you run INTERSVR on a compustr then it is the SERVER of files to the computer which runs INTERLNK.

What I was trying to > say was, Interlnk (the tsr part of the pair) should start assigning > drive letters beginning with the drive letter following the letter set > with Lastdrive in the config.sys file. Ok, I see now. The assignment in one computer has nothing to do with the other computer. So my drives A, C, D on the palmtop are known to the machine where INTERLNK runs as G,H,I, if I have up to drive F assigned for other devices. Yes, the INTERLNK-running machine needs a LASTDRIVE at least eqaual to I in this example, because these drives are pretty real. I ran interlnk in W95 config and the palmtop drives were right there on the explorer. I then netwroked a desktop and laptop both running W95, then added another machine to the network. Both machines saw the palmtop drives. The third machine was remote (actually in another country) and _it_ saw the palmtop drives as network drives too! Norton v6 could not analyze the drives across this link, but almost everyting else I tried worked. Pretty neat! The third machine was a server for a Website in another country, and the files were on my palmtop, so my palmtop was actually a remote, international, webserver? :) It was slow on the link to the third machine, but ok on the local net. I never tried to hook it up using a 10-base link, although I have the card but no idea about drivers for it that run on the palmtop! That could be interesting... Hope all tis helps. Avi M.

You're serious, aren't you? I believe tha SNAP generators for satellites are placed on the end of a boom a meter or two from the electronics that are being powered, so as to minimize radiation effects. If you can live with that, and meet the requirements of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (or the relevant agency in your country) perhaps you can build a SNAP-palmtop.

Or the BUFFERS=20 statement in config.sys provides a measure of caching performance that may only be evident for blocks that fall within the cache buffer (namely the contiguous blocks).

I would like to have it wake itself up at an optimal time (whenever the "Due for today" macro has run) and then shut itself down, saving that "Due" screen for when I press the power button. I don't mind it being on for 3 minutes (or whatever) and then powering down. I *do* want to see the message. 1. Is there some way to modify the "Due" macro to add this, or other functions such as a daily backup/reboot/refresh? 2. Failing that, how do I simply run a macro which turns the machine on and then allows it to shut itself off? If I can also run a backup macro at the same time, without losing the "Due today" display, that would be great! waldemar kowalski -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 8 Mar 1998 03:50:02 GMT Reply-To: rwhitby@asc.sps.mot.com Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Rod Whitby Subject: ÝTo cc:Mail users¨ Anyone know the cc:Mail file formats ?

What I need to be able to do all this is the formats for all the CC:Mail files. If anyone has this information, could they please send it to me ? You would then be able to download mail from your POP mailbox into cc:Mail on the palmtop (removing the need for a separate mail reading cient like PNR), and upload outgoing mail and news from cc:Mail to your SMTP and NNTP servers. Depending on whether the newsgroup name can be passed into cc:Mail, this might also work for incoming news articles from an NNTP server.

The actors: 100LX - 1 meg of black pristine HP palmtop, well loved but often neglected for its larger brother. 200LX - 5 megs of portable storage and power, well used and it show, especially with its scratched screen and missing verticle line. Me - as the mad scientist. It was a dark and stormy night... I had my 200LX apart because Mack Baggette (Times 2 Tech) had sent me my new NiMH batteries and a little microscopic transistor, diode or whatever that I was missing from my 200 that was keeping it from speaking. Let me tell you, I am amazed at my own soldering ability, I managed to neatly tack all three legs of that surface mount component with my trusty standard issue Radio Shack soldering iron. Must have taken me 30 seconds max, and another ten minutes to dig out my loop so that I could do a close up inspection of the joint. Let me tell you, no cold solder joints at my house. Anyone willing to pay to watch me do it again? Didn't think so. While I had my 200 apart, I thought I would swap the screen with my 100, so that my 200 would be more pleasing to the eye. Well despite the fact that I had read the warnings on David Sargent's web site about taking apart the clutch assembly in the right hinge, I did it anyway for the sake of curiosity. Let me make a suggestion, listen to David and DON'T DISASSEMBLE THE RIGHT HINGE. Well the parts are all sitting on top of my printer, and probably will until I can figure out a good way to reassemble the hinge. I do have an idea on a tool to make the job easier and am going to work on that tomorrow if I get the chance. Well, with my 200 not all together in a portable state I pulled out my 100 loaded my appt book and used it for the remainder of the week. Well it is now this weekend and I was staring as the mess of parts still sitting atop my printer and stared at the 100 and reminded myself how much I liked the 100's black case over the 200's blue/green. Then suddenly it hit me, BRAIN TRANSPLANT. Well ten minutes later and my 100 now thinks it is a 5meg 200LX. I am mostly satisfied (except of course the strewn parts that will make a 100 disguised as a 200). The only thing that I am still considering is swapping the 200's keyboard for the 100's but haven't decided if it would be worth the trouble. Does anyone have any experience pulling the LX keyboard apart?

After no one could actually find any data on it, I got around to asking Mack Baggette what it would cost for him to pull one off of his parts LXs.

Files on Palmtop.Net come from an FTP site, but the URL you hit first does a HTTP transaction so the download can be counted. This count lets us keep a semi-accurate count of the S.U.P.E.R. Top 20. WWW/LX is not able to handle the re-direction from HTTP to FTP within the same transaction. We are considering a second set of pages just for WWW/LX so you will get the FTP link and not the counter script. This will throw off the count just a bit, but WWW/LX traffic is very low compared to the overall Netscape/IE traffic. For now, you can get any of the files via direct ftp from here: ftp://ftp.one.net/pub/users/hamm Hope this helps!

Hi John- This is just guesswork, since I use PE, not MEMO. AFAIK - MEMO saves files without carraige return characters at the end of lines. It does its own wordwrap which isn't saved. This is probably whats causing the problem. I'm not sure if this will work, but try setting the OriLength variable in reader.cfg to 70 or whatever you want to use in MEMO. (It defaults to 64). This is supposed to be for controlling the formatting of downloaded files in your TempOriFile, but maybe it also effects formatting of outgoing messages. I run Post from raw DOS, not inside SysMgr, so haven't seen some of the odd behaviour some folks have reported. If you have room on your palmtop, try installing PE. The price is right (freeware) and there's a spellchecker available (also free). It has the advantage of being written by Andreas Garzotto, who also wrote Post, so the two programs work beautifully together. Hope this helps. -PR ------------ Peniel Romanelli peniel@web2000.net d021785c@dc.seflin.org ******* HP100LX ---- Post/LX ---- WWW/LX ******* Miami, Florida -- Redefining the term "Political Asylum" -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 7 Mar 1998 22:43:07 -0600 Reply-To: speters@kdsi.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Stan Peters Subject: Re: Defragmenting HP Palmtops Comments: To: lloo@WORLDNET.ATT.NET MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I tried a test writing a 87K file to a Flash (old Intel) disk space that was fragmented into 7 pieces, and another space with 2 pieces.

On the Compaq Aero I had during my undergraduate days, I used to use either fsuucp or nuucp (I don't remember which) to dial up and grab my mail when I travelled. MV Communications (http://www.mv.com) used to offer a UUCP account for something like $4(US) per month plus a minimal connect charge. You can access the account via a NH-based (area code 603) dialup number or connect over the Internet. (I simply dialed to our local terminal server and hopped out from there, avoiding all toll charges.) There also used to be a program called (I think) NUPOP, which was a DOS-based POPmail clinet that didn't require PPP - it could be scripted to dial up serially and connect to a pop server via a termserver or by logging in to a UNIX machine and using telnet. Not the world's fanciest solution, but it's great for those of us who don't ask for anything beyond email to our LX. I think NUPOP was written by Northwestern University. - Tom -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 8 Mar 1998 12:18:08 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , lloo@WORLDNET.ATT.NET Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Longden Loo Subject: Re: Defragmenting HP Palmtops Comments: To: speters@kdsi.net Date: Sun, 8 Mar 1998 17:17:52 +0000 Message-ID: <19980308171749.AAA9858@Ý12.64.39.27¨> On 1998-03-07 speters@kdsi.net said to lloo@worldnet.att.net >I tried a test writing a 87K file to a Flash (old Intel) disk space >that was fragmented into 7 pieces, and another space with 2 pieces. >Writing to the seven segment space was 10% faster, but also >inconsistent.

If you wish to be removed from= this mailing list please send a message with REMOVE in the subject line. It is now nearing the end of Q1 '98, the projected release date for XTCE. This deadline will be adhered to and you can expect a demo version to be available from the website sometime in the next couple of weeks. XTCE has been in a 90% complete state since November last year, but= has been held back by two factors: (1) It was too slow. (2) I went on a 2 month holiday in Dec. Since late October last year I having been trying very hard to get the kind of speed out of it that I would deem 'usable'. Unfortunately I= have not been able to get this speed on anything less than an HP620LX. It= is for this reason that the initial release of XTCE will only target this platform. At this point I wouldn't say it's impossible to get it to= go fast enough on slower platforms, just that it would require hand-coding the entire CPU emulation in Hitachi SH and MIPS assembly language. This is a very large and complicated undertaking and may not result in a= big enough speed increase anyway (the XTCE CPU emulation is currently coded in highly-optimised C). I will list below the speed of the emulation on the current H/PCs and you will be able to see from that how slow XTCE is: 1) Casio/Compaq/HP320 1st generation machines - ~2Mhz 80186 2) Phillips/Hitachi 1st generation machines - ~3Mhz 80186 3) HP360 2nd generation machine - ~4Mhz 80186 4) HP620 2nd generation machine - ~6Mhz 80186 The HP620 version of XTCE will support colour. I will probably also release a colour MIPS version (for use on the Sharp machine), as this machine will probably be fast enough too (although I have no way of testing this). I would like to think that I'll come across some breakthrough that will enable XTCE to perform adequately on all platforms, as I believe it should be somewhere between the speed of a 6 and 8Mhz 80186 even on= the Casio/Compaq/HP320 1st generation machines (based on other benchmarking I've done on the various H/PCs). If I ever do come across a method to speed up XTCE on all platforms I will not hesitate to release versions for those platforms too. If there is enough demand for an HP360 version I will release that too as it is on the threshold of what can be deemed 'usable'. I apologise to those people that this news disappoints, and will make= an announcement to this list in the next couple of weeks when the demo= is available...

It seems to me tha BIOS code wants to be ultra simple (less bugs) and FAST so it can service the interrupts. Logic to discern "next" block vs. "far away" block, is probably not needed, and slows things down. The same code adds the next block displacement as fast as the far block displacement, and you save an instruction or two, as well.

A friend gave me a leather case that was for an IBM PC 100. It seems a co-worker of my friend owned an IBM PC 110 which was either lost or stolen. The owner gave away the (now) unneeded case. btw The 110 is a small palmtop. My question involves the small DRAM 2 meg memory card that was in the case. It is longer than a standard compact flash card but shorter than a standard card. Any ideas what devices this card could be used in? Is it a propriatary format that only runs on PC 100s?

My IBM (166mhz Pentium) boots to win95 with interlnk loaded in config.sys: device=c:\dos\interlnk.exe /com:1 /noprinter I then launch intersvr on the 200LX using a batch file to disable timeouts, enable the serial port, etc...the key line is: c:\dos\intersvr.exe /baud:115200 /com:1 /b Using this setup, I don't notice anything unusually slow on the desktop except the first access to Windows Explorer, during which I notice it polls the LX drive A. Afterwards, there's no indicator that the desktop is making any attempts to contact the LX in the background (unless I specifically request it). There are other if's and but's. Email me if you want more specifics. - Longden -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 9 Mar 1998 06:42:41 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , sponsor@FTEL.NET Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "A.

The differences between the DOS versions are price, how they bring up documents, the size of document and the metaphor they use. Price is the most obvious difference. Because InfoSelect is no longer supported Micro Logic sells old versions for $49. AskSam for DOS is still supported (but I don't know when the last update was) and sells for $395 (but you can get it slightly cheaper through a retailer). When you do a search on AskSam you can make some pretty sophisticated queries but the search doesn't take place until you actually enter it in. As you type ever letter of your search you can see IS start to eliminate entries but the search is strictly for the word (or part of the word that contains your word) you are searching for (IS does have another search called neural which I think will look for things that sound like your entry; I've never used the feature). Where AskSAM seems to shine is size of documents. I really don't know if there are practical limitations to the size of the AskSAM databases. While there might not be size limitations on IS, you have to allocate additional memory using an EMS driver. Practically most IS users for DOS don't use the database to hold large documents. The prototypical AskSAM users is a lawyer or someone who wants a hold of vast amounts of information at hand. The IS user is someone who has all these post-it-notes on info and wants some place to put it. AskSAM really feels like a word processor with fancy search tools. IS uses the metaphor of stacks. You can have any number of stacks and it is very easy to switch from one stack to another. If you want one entry in the stack to come before another you can easily push one entry to the top of the stack so that when you do a search it will come up before another. That gives it a slight advantage to AskSAM for addresses and contacts because there are some contacts that you might want to come up first in a search. I'm in the same boat as the first user. I've played with the demo for AskSAM and I liked it. If anyone has one for sale I'd like to buy it. However, saying that I also like my IS. BTW, there is a demo version of AskSAM out there at their web site. I think you can add ten entries to it before it becomes read-only. I just don't see why they don't drop the cost for the DOS version. I sent e-mail to their site asking that question but I have never received an answer. === Dave Hart (hartd@poboxes.com) Beavercreek (Dayton), OH USA Join the effort to bring Catholic Radio to the Miami Valley Miami Valley Catholic Radio Pillar of Fire, Pillar of Truth _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

The Intersvr side is an executable that hogs the server, locks out local access (except for termination) and provides services to Interlnk, running on the client PC. The Interlnk side is a TSR that "finds" and communicates with the server (Intersvr) program across a serial or parallel connection. A basic setup of the pair consists of a DEVICE= line in the client and normal command-line execution in the server. Look at the built-in help on a PC running DOS 6.0.

What is Interserv? Intersvr and interlnk are two companion programs that came with DOS 6.x and appears they were provided to give you LapLink functionality within DOS (for connecting PCs together to exchange data). After two PCs are connected with either a serial or parallel cable, one machine runs the intersvr program and the other runs interlnk. Then the interlnk machine can access the drives on the intersvr machine (which kind of locks up while its acting as a file server) as tho they were it's own drives. Interlnk/intersvr were dropped by MS after DOS 6.22. I have Win95 and I am looking > for some automatic way of sychronizing only files that have been changed from > my HP200LX and my Win95 computer. Will Interserv do that? Intersvr and LapLink and several other solutions will probably work. I use intersvr to copy files, but not really to sync them (tho I probably could with a batch file and the DOS XCOPY command). If you find a copy of DOS 6.x, 'help' on intersvr, interlnk or interlnk.exe will tell you all you need about how to use them. Email me if you want more specifics. - Longden -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 9 Mar 1998 11:08:20 -0600 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Phil Drummond Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Phil Drummond Subject: Re: PCMCIA Ethernet Success!

I used to use one for a desktop PC, but I question whether or not such a remapping would be conducive to typing upon an LX keyboard, if for no other reason than the keys are so small that touch typing is very difficult. Most people I know with an LX, myself included, tend to hold the LX much like a gamepad for a videogame system, and type using thumbs and perhaps an index finger once in a while. I don't think the dvorak keyboard would be any faster thanthe qwerty when using this style of typing, simply because the Dvorak keyboard is deigned so that the most often used letters (in English, anyways) are at the home row. Using a home row means using touch typing, in order to gain speed. It DOES however, seem entirely likely that, armed with the information regarding the most often used keys/letters, and the thumb-style (or whatever style you use) you could remap the keyboard to be much faster... (mapping the most used keys near the edges of the keyboard comes to mind.) Barring that, one could always get a 'diddler'.. a one handed chord-key keyboard...

I had a macro run a batch file each nite that used the command "xcopy c:\*.* a:\bkup /s /e /m". This dumped the c: drive to the a:\bkup directory each nite, but only the files that had changed. Pkzipping the files would have done no good, since stacker was already compressing the files. Stacker is good at some things and not so good at others. You might try using PKZIP for your backups, as you will save a considerable abount of disk space over just using STACKER's compression algorithm. STACKER does just fine at recapturing the dead space at the end of a DOS file (from the EOF byte to the end of a sector) and also some minimal repeated character compression, but PKZIP beats it soundly in real-world performance. I tried the following test: 46 dos text files (each of approx 3-6k bytes each). The dir command shows these files take a total of 222380 bytes, and including the "trailing" dead space these files use 234496 bytes (do a dir before and after deleting the files from an unstacked drive). On a stacked drive it takes 334064 to store those same files. For those who are unfamiliar with STACKER's operation, a stacked drive shows approximately twice the free space, but may use up to 2x normal allocation to store a file, depending on how compressible that file is. Using PKZIP displayed compression averaging around 50% and the resulting zip file showed a file size of 117943. When stored on a stacked drive this .zip file required 229376 bytes. The individual files took up 45% more space than the same files stored on the same drive in a .zip file. I suggest that anyone who is feeling file space constraint should become adept at using PKZIP. Obviously YMMV, depending on many factors, including compressibility and the annoyance of having to UNZIP. But for situations like backups and archiving it's a no-brainer. ZIP is also handy for reducing the size of large files that need to be sent out the dataport. Just my two pennies worth.

Comments: cc: palmusoz@forensic.sa.gov.au Hi gals 'n guys i use key200 to remap two applications, the first one (chronologically) is the Notetaker to Quicken. i use Quicken a lot, but use the Note- taker even more! the following is the file i called key.dat and called with key200: Ctrl Quicken : ¬Ctrl Ctrl ¬Ctrl Quicken ¬Quicken Quicken : Ctrl Memo ¬Memo ¬Ctrl This worked fine and dandy until i discovered Computer Math Calculator, by Eugene Dorr This freeware program has the best of HexCalc and the HP Calc and some neat touches, like the display of all four bases simultaneously and the ability to switch between them with ease. It is proving a boon to my school studies! the file is cmc100.exm As it is an EXM program, it is 100% system manager compliant, allowing hot-key switching and fn copy/paste between programs. i assigned it the key Alt+Calc in the application manager. then i delved once again into key200 and placed a pair of lines AFTER the entry for Quicken/Notetaker thus: Alt Calc : ¬Alt Alt ¬Alt Calc ¬Calc Calc : Alt Calc ¬Calc ¬Alt Note that this is identical syntax to the earlier listing, but there was a problem! It appeared the Alt key was being reported down when entering the CMC100 program. The symptoms of this were: switching to cmc100 and entering any key- stroke got a "beep" and no more. i tried all keys with no success until the Alt key, which freed the prog, but switching back in did it again! i tried all kinds of mods to the file syntax with no success, until i thought, "Sequence!" a dos udf... Placing the entry with it's original syntax First, above the one for Quicken, has proved perfect! Now when i press the Calc key, i get my beloved Computer Math Calculator and the HP Calc is only an Alt+Calc key-stroke away. i hope this discussion is useful to someone! -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 9 Mar 1998 22:22:15 +0100 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , tkraus@AUGSBURG.BAYNET.DE Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Tobias Kraus Subject: Re: Nuclear option In Reply to : At 7 Mar 09:58, John Musielewicz wrote: >Just out of curiousity why couldn't a nuclear battery be used for power?= > Something along the lines of a snap generator?

Comments: To: Phil Drummond In-Reply-To: Your message of Mon, 09 Mar 1998 09:50:49 MET. I have noticed similar effects in mail coming from Lotus Notes, received on unix. On receipt, mail appears to be wrapped at column 72 and an "=" is inserted at the end of the broken line. The same mail has the normal "=" replaced by the "=3D" sequence, while non-ascii characters (such as accented character) are replaced by a similar sequences. E.g. the single characters "e¬", "e:" and "e`" are transformed into =E8, =E9 and =EA (I am not sure about which accented "e" character because I use a script on unix to read this type of embellished mail, by simply piping the mail through a sed filter and replace all accented characters (i.e. =xx sequences) by an appropriate single ascii character.) I have been unable to trace who is the culprit: Lotus Notes or my MH mailer.

OP2216 is the enabler, which makes the palmtop see the card. PD2212 is the modified packet driver. With those two pieces of software, and the appropriate server running on the desktop (and a good cable / hub/ whatever hardware is needed to connect the two), you can run most any package that needs a standard packet driver. They are available at SUPER, or at the ftp.one.net site under the name lxether3.zip. > The card did not need the "cardopen" enabler when used with this > software. OP2216 is the enabler, in this case, specifically for the LX. > If you have some stuff that will do additional TCP/IP stuff (or > NetBEUI), please feel free to mail me whatever you think I might be > interested in. :) If you want to do backups, you can run an NFS server on the desktop and a client on the palmtop. This allows you to map drives on the palmtop, to drives on the desktop-- i.e., g: on the palmtop becomes the desktop's hard drive. SOSS, Son of Stan's Server, available at simtel.net, is a freeware DOS NFS server that runs on the desktop. There were two drawbacks to using it: 1) it doesn't run under Windows 95 in a DOS box; it needs to be run in straight DOS mode. 2) It would only allow a few files to be transported before aborting. I haven't found any freeware NFS servers for Windows 95, but www.xlink.com has demo downloads on their 95/NT servers. The one I'm using works QUITE well, but expires after two weeks. For the client on the palmtop, I recommend XFS180.ZIP. It's a great package of NFS tools; the other one I tried, NFS102-w.ZIP, on simtel, allowed copying to the desktop, but wouldn't let me copy the files back to the palmtop. XFS can be found, according to the documention, via FTP to lwfws1.uni-paderborn.de:/pub/xfs On the subject of card enablers: does anybody know how to remove an enabler? The trouble with them is that once you run them, you have to reboot in order to be able to use flash cards or modem cards in the LX. Perhaps somebody could write a de-enabler to undo whatever it is that OP2216 (and also SEHP, the Silicom card's enabler) do? Now that the SDK is available to the public, it shouldn't be too hard...

I've had my 200LX for almost 4 years and I have finally run into a problem I can't solve myself or by reading something. I'm hoping that one of these persons can help me now. I've got a new Silicom Ethernet card and can't get it figured out. I don't know how to configure it, and I'm not sure how to set up the net.cfg for it. Can't run the setup wizard to set the interupts because the wizard requires a 286 or better. Tried running the msd program on the 200 and everything runs OK except the iinterupt checker (locks the 200). I've got a very early 1MEG 200 (Phoenix BIOS 1.00 A). Can anyone who has this their Silicom ethernet card working on their 200 help? Maybe you could email me a copy of your config.sys, autoexec.bat, & net.cfg.

Thanks for your reply Longden, just for comparisons sake, my relevant lin= es are: devicehigh=3Dc:\dos\interlnk.exe /noprinter /drives:3 /baud:115200 in CONFIG.SYS on the desktop and c:\utils\intersvr /baud:115200 from within my batch file (similar function to yours) on the Palmtop I do not think there is much that can be concluded from the differences. I agree with your observation that when Explorer is opened, the drives ar= e scanned which generates a delay due to the time the Palmtop takes to respond, this is the most obvious delay. However, I think certain actions= also cause the drives to be scanned again generating further delays even when you are not directly accessing the Palmtop.

It seems to me that it was about $30, but don't quote me. It might be more costly than downloading (then again, maybe it isn't), but a heck of a lot more convenient. I'm sure they've got a Web URL; I don't happen to know what it is. Their toll-free number is 800-731-7177. BTW, all Project Gutenberg texts I've toyed with, whether downloaded or taken from the CD, have hard carriage returns at the end of every line. This is a major annoyance, especially when using Vertical Reader. You may wish to cast around for a program that removes these returns. There are a number of them out there. Perhaps someone will chime in to let us know their favorite. HTH, Larry Mittell At 02:08 PM 3/7/98 -0500, you wrote: >hello > >does anyone know where to get the etexts from project >gutenberg?

I already heard from my ISP that with UQWK's new version I had to use the +m command to get a mail package (the .MSG one) but the -L does the trick to convert it to the format I need.

Here is another macro to put in another, later appointment to take both appointments and move them to the next day. The reson for _moving_ them and not make a repeating daily appointment is that repeaters tend to fill up and slow down the palmtop. Assumptions: Fn-3 is used for the ToDo macro, Fn-4 used for this macro. All 4 lines are really one contiguous macro. I split it to make it easier to explain. {Appt}{F9}{F5}{F4}{Left}{F4}||3{Enter}{Enter} {Alt+T}4.00{Alt+D}+{F10}{Menu}q {Appt}{F9}{F5}{F4}{Left}{F4}||4{Enter}{Enter} {Alt+T}4.30{Alt+D}+{F10}{Menu}q{Fn+F4} Ok here is the step by step explanation: {Appt}{F9}{F5}{F4}{Left}{F4}||3{Enter}{Enter} Go to appt, make sure you are in Appointments. Goto, Today, Go back one day. Search for string ||3, then enter that appointment. {Alt+T}2.30{Alt+D}+{F10}{Menu}q Go to time of appt, enter time, in case it was changed by you. Goto Date field, add one day, save. Quit. (menu quit is not really needed here, and if so, take out the appt in next line. {Appt}{F9}{F5}{F4}{Left}{F4}||4{Enter}{Enter} Appointment book, appointment mode, goto today, go one day back, search for string ||4 then enter that appt. {Alt+T}2.45{Alt+D}+{F10}{Menu}q{Fn+F4} Change its time to a bit later (not significant, as long as after the ||3 appt which fires up your list. Gogo date, add 1, save, quit. As I think about it, in our Web page I believe there is something Andreas wrote which customizes the time when Daily greeting message comes up. Look at http://www.dasoft.com follow About D&A, then Faces, then Garzotto, then on that page there is a link to Palmtops, I believe it is there... Good luck. Avi M.

The file is saved by Memo as say four records, one 140 bytes long (2 lines on the 70 byte margin in Memo) one record 2 bytes with CRLF, another long record representing text entered, and a short CRLF.

It also can open multiple files (even at once - like Menu Fie Open and specify *.TXT). It also is lightning fast on searching, esp. compared to Memo, and also it is not limited by memory to file size. I regularly edit and use my 3Mb message files with PE.

On that note, I tried the TSR removers on CIC100 -- the modem detection driver on the LX, and while it does remove it, loading CIC100 in one area while switching to another Software Carousel area, will freeze the machine.

Short answer: No. Long answer: Many operating systems, like unix and MacOS, have an extra layer of disk mapping called inodes. There is an inode allocation table, which works like a file allocation table, but instead of filenames, a unique inode number is stored. A separate table maps inodes to file names. This schema allows an infinite number of filenames to point to the same file. DOS does not have this extra layer of abstraction. ------------------------------------------------------------------- DDDD David Kramer dskramer@concentric.net DK KD http://www.concentric.net/~dskramer DKK D DK KD If we knew what we were doing, it wouldn't be research DDDD -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 10 Mar 1998 08:28:29 -0600 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Mary and Mike Kilpatrick Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Mary and Mike Kilpatrick Subject: Re: My Other Text Viewers ( again ?! oh no... ) Comments: To: Richard Bueker In-Reply-To: <3506180E.B6452FB2@sonoma.edu> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Richard, I'd like the Zip file.

I use POST/LX together with WWW/LX and I create my mails with PE. But maybe I found the answer to my own question. I usually have all my outgoing mail MIME encoded by default. Now for this mail, you are just reading, I switched MIME encoding OFF. Now let's see what happens if I write an equal sign '='. From my understanding MIME should only care about 8 bit chars, and the equal sign is a 6 bit char with the decimal value of 61, placed in the ASCII table between the numbers 0-9 and the upper case letters A-Z. None of them is MIME encoded. -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 10 Mar 1998 19:22:48 +0100 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Frank Ubachs Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Frank Ubachs Subject: WWW/LX: performance? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Having read a lot of comments and questions concerning WWW/LX I am very curious about this program.

I installed it on a stacked 8mb flashcard, and the performance is actually tolerable for the most part. (Redrawing the maps is fairly slow, but can be aborted by pressing ESC.) I suggest that you edit your journey in the text based "Journey" screen and then switch to map mode after calculating the routes, as the routes seem to be calculated more quickly when the map is not being displayed.

I assume you had to put the batteries in yourself, so the unit is probably 'clean'. Exit SysMgr to DOS and run chkdsk. If the numbers are what you showed us already, I'd be inclined to think someone goofed somewhere and you have a 1mb unit. Otherwise, I'd think you'd find a C drive with about 1.3mb. - Longden -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 10 Mar 1998 15:02:42 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Peniel Romanelli Subject: Re: WWW/LX: performance?

It would help me find out whether WWW/LX will work for= me > or not. I've been using WWW/LX since it came out, so I'll try to answer your questions. Memory: My installation takes up about 600K, but this includes accessory programs, backup files, and some unrelated stuff that really belongs in a different directory... Without all this stuff, it would be about 450K. I also use my own, larger fonts for the browser, so this also adds some. Speed: I think its a good bit faster than NT, but then I haven't used NT for a while. Dialing into a Unix shell is a whole lot faster. But the shell is text-only, and probably connects to the net with a T1 line, not by modem. Connecting to a shell is also faster, since it doesn't have to do PPP negotiations. I never tried WWW with= a 2400 bps modem, but it would probably be painfully slow. Remember, with the shell account, you're only reading the mail; it's already on the system - with WWW you transfer it all to your machine. Speed also depends greatly with your ISP, and phone service. Some days it flies, other times it seems slow. The browser (HV) works very nicely. Speed depends on whether in-line graphics ore on or off (you can select this in the config file and from the menu). With graphics on, it can be slow, depending on the number and size of image files. With graphics off, HV will blow other browsers away (except Lynx on a Unix shell + T1 line). Graphics: HV (the browser for WWW) can display in-line GIF images (not JPG) on its own. This can be turned off for speed. You can easily use LXPIC for viewing by putting a line in the hv.cfg file for each type of image file. When browsing, you just move the highlight to the image link & hit enter. HV calls LXPIC to show the picture. BTW - HV is freeware, so you can grab it off SUPER or from D&A's web page. You can view either your own HTML or downloaded web pages. Hope this helps. -PR ------------ Peniel Romanelli peniel@web2000.net d021785c@dc.seflin.org ******* HP100LX ---- Post/LX ---- WWW/LX ******* Miami, Florida -- Redefining the term "Political Asylum" -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 10 Mar 1998 14:11:02 -0800 Reply-To: David Sargeant Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: David Sargeant Subject: Re: Missing Megabyte?

I am fairly certain that 4DOS does not allow long filenames. It allows you to have file descriptions, but they are merely descriptions (and shown when you do "dir") and cannot be used instead of filenames. Also, 4DOS doesn't allow symbolic links (as I believe was the original question), as it doesn't change DOS it self, it merely replaces the shell (command.com) with a better one with lots of features borrowed from Unix shells (plus a few that are not!). It is quite good, but also rather large. Expect a minimum installation to require ~400kb (200 for the shell replacement and 200 for the swap file). Granted, this may not be large to some palmtoppers, but it is to me :-) If you just want the filename completion and commandline history features then there are several programs availiable that take up much less space than 4DOS.

CHKDSK wouldn't like it at all, but it is done all the time on CDROMs (of course they don't have real FAT file systems either so maybe it can't be done --- hence my maybe). I'm on the CD writer list and a frequent complaint is that some data CDs cannot be copied because they are "too big", often appearing to have significantly more than the 630..650mB that a CD can hold. Large files are frequently made to appear to be present in more than one directory to ease (one presumes) the installation process; but there is really only one copy and multiple "links". One suggestion I've heard (and I have no idea if this can be done), is to make the links be zero sized files (a little tricky to make, but doable) so they only occupy directory space, then insert a TSR into the "file open" path of DOS, that when it finds such a zero length file, consults a mapping file (that the link making program maintains), and causes the actual file name to be opened (this would be like Unix symbolic links vs. hard links). But then again, maybe not :-) John Stafford -- http://pw2.netcom.com/~johnws/index.html -- johnws@ix.netcom.com ...................

I did a little research and experimentation last night. Turns out the FAT isn't what I need to alter to simulate a link, but rather the directory file itself. I did an experiment with Norton Utilities, and was able to create such a link - really just a duplicate entry in the directory file having a different name but pointing to the same FAT entry. This seems to work fine, with a couple of caviats. First, as many have pointed out, chkdsk will likely fuss about this situation (although I didn't have time to personally check it out). Also, one should only make this link after all editing has been done on the file. Otherwise, subsequent editing of one of the files will cause it to "separate" into two different files. Now to write a short program to perform the linking and unlinking function for me, without resorting to the Norton Utilities package... Thanks for all the comments and suggestions. -Chris Lott *********************************************************************** R.

I had tried clearing a fair amount of disk space on c: but maybe not enough. Since I didn't know if anyone had an answer for me, I called Intuit. They told me that sometimes the Pocket Quicken files are just too big (they didn't know how that was defined) and sometimes over time they can become corrupted. Theyt suggested backing up all my Quicken and Pocket Quicken files, exporting all my transactions fro each account as QIF files, and then importing them to the desktop program. I didn't care about synchronization, since my primary entry of these transactions was on the palmtop. Then I backed everything up. I trimmed all the transactions from each account in the PQ file. Then I tried entering a dummy transaction in 2 accounts and tried to use PQC. It failed again, suggesting a deep seated file corruption in my PQ file. I deleted the file (in my case, Sands.PDT) and started fresh. I then did some test transactions and they synchronized using PQC with no problem. - Danny Daniel Z.

At the moment, the only cards known to work are: Silicom Accton EN2212 Accton EN2216 PLANET Credit Card Ethernet Adapter MELCO LPC-TJ Ethernet PCMCIA Card (with "UE2212" typed at the back) Ethernet PCMCIA Card (with "UE2216" typed at the back) All but the Silicom card work only because they are Accton compatible. Any card which works with the Accton drivers will work. The Silicom card is the ideal solution, but is hampered by its usually higher cost and the fact that it will NOT work with a double-speed palmtop. The Accton cards will, but there is no ODI driver for them, so you can't log into a Netware server on the palmtop (the PCMMLID.COM file says "Settings Error Occurred!" when run on the LX and doesn't allow VLM or NETX to attach to the server). I used the packet driver ethernet card simulator, PDETHER, and the packet driver IPX program PDIPX (from Intel) to "fake" an ODI driver for VLM, and it attached fine to our Netware 3.12 server, but freezes when I login. What would be great is if somebody could look in the SDK and find out what / how the card enablers work, and make one for other low-power network cards, and perhaps fix the ODI driver for the Accton cards so we can login to Netware servers more easily. Many of us have networks at work and would love to be able to access them on a double-speed palmtop... BTW, yesterday I stated that, after loading all the fake Netware drivers, I had 500K free. I was mistaken, it was 450K. -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 11 Mar 1998 15:03:22 -0600 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Phil Drummond Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Phil Drummond Subject: Re: ethernet for the 200lx... Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I have a U.S Logic (Computer City house brand) UE2212 compatible card. (cat# 22-10294) I have been playing around with the enabler and packet drivers from Super and have this to report. I Installed two new alkaline cells, installed PC card, turned on palmtop (Battlog loaded in autoexec.bat) terminated system manager and loaded op2216, loaded pd2212 and connected twisted pair to "dongle" on PC card loaded PktDem (Simtel) and started watching "stuff" from the LAN roll across the screen of the palmtop. 1.4 hours later I decided to do some laundry and stopped the PktDem program, restarted the PIM on the palmtop and ran Battlog's display EXM. The cells had dropped from just over 3 volts to 2.39 volts. I turned off the palmtop, removed the PC card and within 10 minutes the batteries had returned to 2.80 volts where they stayed for the next 20 minutes at which time I turned off the palmtop.

I see two current options: 1) Gilles Kohl wrote an EXM prg to write and read the content of the clipboard to/from a file (clipvue.exm). With a KEY200 combination, you could kind of automate the process between SysMgr and some DOS apps by teaching KEY200 to type File/Insert/clipvue.txt. This is fairly difficult to realize and even more difficult to generalize to various non-standard DOS apps. 2) A number of free utilities have been written for DOS machines. DOSCLIP.COM is only one example which only takes 2kb, an AltaVista search on DOS near CLIP will certainly reveal a number of others. Some may be or may not be compatible with SC and Sysmgr. I tried DOSCLIP.com in the past and it crashed my HP under some circumstances so I did not proceed, but I am sure that one of those little TSR will eventually work with the HP.

Well, this doesn't yield anymore information than I obtained with dir _DAT and mem (or with chkdsk). You see, as I mentioned, this is a brand new unit straight out of the box, just powered up after I inserted a battery for the first time. There are no files on the C drive except in the _DAT directory. These get created automatically from the hard reset process. I have concluded, along with Service Merchandise, that this is a bum unit. I am currently negotiating with them to let me keep it (as a 1M unit) for a discount. Otherwise, they are willing to exchange it for a *real* 2M model. Since I want this as a backup unit, I don't mind whether it has 1M or 2M. Were I to switch to this one, I would swap out my X2 crystal and 4M memory card. With the memory card, I loose 1MB of internal RAM anyway... Thanks for all the suggestions. I never thought of how many ways there were to check for free total memory! -Chris Lott *********************************************************************** R.

Extremely powerful and flexible. If you have a real need for this program, there is nothing else like it. The down side, because this program is so flexible, some people have problems getting a handle on how to use the program. Note - To run Agenda on a 200LX your need to 1) install it on your C: drive if you're using a flash RAM card (speed!) and 2) run Agenda under MaxDOS.

DOS does not have this extra layer of abstraction. > Long (cautionary) answer - Yes, but don't even think about running CHKDSK or any other disk utility. Every directory entry contains a pointer to the first cluster occupied by the file. From there, the OS reads the FAT chain to find out the rest of the clusters used. So all you need to do is create a directory entry for the alias, go in with a disk editor, and change the starting cluster and size to point to the original file. But, CHKDSK will report this as a cross-linked file, and try to fix it for you. Then you can just hope that one of the two survives, and that you can figure out which one it is. IOW, this is NOT A GOOD THING. Of course, DOS 7 (WIN95) allows this in FAT with links. I haven't bothered studying the details of the alterations to the directory structure which they use for this. Alternate answer - if it's all that important to be able to call a utility by two names, why not create a batch file in the "alias" name to call the original file. Just put placeholders for all the possible args & switches. It'll tie up one cluster and a directory entry, but you can achieve the needed results.

Format below is: FILENAME.EXT | contents | contents | contents /* comment about the file */ Don't enter the "|" or leading spaces. CURRENT.BAT | %1 %4 CR | | /* Just a carriage return. There are more elegant approaches, but this is easy and obvious which some of the other stuff isn't. This file _must_ be in the current directory or else be referred to by path and file names both, since it's a data file. RESETDAT.BAT | call backdate | :any other housekeeping you need /* This can be a separate file, or it can be included in your regular restore file. We're using call so the control will be returned to the calling program after execution of the batch file. Backdate.bat will be dynamically created during your backup process. */ BACKIT.BAT | xcopy c:\*.* a:\backdir /e /v | date < cr > backdate.bat /* Use your regular backup routine. Xcopy is simple & straightforward, except it doesn't do RHS files. The next line creates the batch file used in RESETDAT.BAT. */ How it works: Backit creates the batch file which will reset the date. This file will consist of 2 lines: BACKDATE.BAT (generated during backup process) | Current date is Wed 03-11-1998 | Enter new date (mm-dd-yy): When you execute the restore process and call RESETDAT.BAT, it invokes BACKDATE.BAT as a child process (which will be returned from, so this doesn't have to be the last line in your batch file). BACKDATE then transfers (unconditional, but still in the child process) control to CURRENT.BAT with the command string "date is Wed 03-11-1998". CURRENT invokes the DATE command (%1 - argÝ1¨) with the argument "03-11-1998" (%4 - argÝ4¨), and returns control, not to BACKDATE (since we didn't "CALL" CURRENT.BAT) but to RESETDAT.BAT, which can do any additional housekeeping needed. Thus, we don't need an ENTER.BAT to keep from getting a "Bad command of file name" message. If you want this to also handle the time of your backup, you would need to change directories, since the TIME command has only 4, not 5, words in the first line. You would need to write a different CURRENT.BAT for time (%1 %3). Note: it _is_ possible to prefix a path to the call to CURRENT.BAT - requires another step, and is left as an exercise for the reader (I'm too lazy to do it here - but I can think of at least 2 ways which would work using only MS-DOS - one of which assumes access to a set of DOS 5 diskettes). The whole process assumes a nightly backup in the wee hours of the morning since otherwise the date would be wrong. Sorry - I can't think of an _easy_ way of keeping track of how old your backups are! Was that what you were looking for?

I don't know if there is a one-step conversion from 200LX into Outlook. I worked it out through the Connectivity Pack, with the translation utility.

However, this was= n't a simple and clean solution because the direct translation from the PDF i= s not recognized my the ConnPack (language conflict I guess). But saving th= e PDF as GDF and then converting works fine. Of course, we're not talking about synchronization, just transfer. By the way, I have to do this to transfer my contact files to my 620LX: the PIM utility works with Schedule+, not with Outlook. (One step ahead, two step= s behind...)

Assume that we start from brand new batteries. BTW how much is the voltage on-average of a brand new battery? - If we see NiCd or NiMH battery, it mentions that the voltage is 1.2V so that 2 batteries in a series supposed to have 2.4V. While 200lx will start to report low battery if the voltage comes down to 2.4V but OTOH we are still using these 1.2V rechargeable batteries in our palmtops safely, so what is actually happening with this labelled-voltage? - I am using Varta 1100mAH in my 200LX and by using BCC I found that max voltage I could reach is 2.79V. But as soon as I finish charging after the voltage reach this figure, BCC reported lower voltage such as 2.62V. And in fact without being plugged with adaptor, it will further go down easily to around 2.51V. And just at the level of 2.40-2.51V, my batteries have more resistance which it should have =;) My question is whether this is common situation or will vary to some degree depend on battery or I still haven't found yet the optimum level of charging.

This is a medical reference book with brief overviews of several hundred medical conditions. A demo is available at two locations: www.palmtop.net www.dasoft.com It is 5MCCDEMO.ZIP. Extract it using the -d parameter to preserve the directory structure. It will create a directory called 5MCCDEMO and install the files in there. Once installed, you may delete the 5MCCDEMO.ZIP file. You will need a HTML viewer to use this package. A good freeware HTML viewer is HV by Andreas Garzotto, which can be found at the D&A web site (www.dasoft.com).

Comments: To: Chris Lott MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Excuse me for pursuing this but I just don't see the flaw in my suggestion. Perhaps I misunderstood the question. So.. I pulled out my 2 meg HP200LX and tried the suggestion I offered to you. My C: drive is divided into 1376 K of drive space and 636 K Ram ( which gives 2 megs total system memory resources). After executing the "dir /s" command on my c drive the display informed me that I am using 509,970 bytes used for files and 858,624 bytes free which add up to 1,368,594 bytes total c: hard drive space. When I add this to the 640 K or 655,360 bytes I get 2,023,954 bytes which is roughly 2 megs (1976.5 K + / - ). Looking at these numbers I feel re-assured that my unit is a 2 meg unit. I also ran chkdsk /f which informed me that I have 532,992 bytes used for files and 858,624 bytes free which add up to 1,391,616 bytes total c: hard drive space. The discrepency in file size between "dir" and "chkdsk" is a product of the units "cluster size." I believe the directory listing reports the actual size (logical size) of all the files and the chkdsk summary tells how much space is actually consumed (the physical size, which is the "actual" amount being used by the hard drive) to hold these files based on the cluster size of drive c. (which I assume you are familar with) I mention all of this because I have read the comments that you sent me i.e. > Well, this doesn't yield anymore information than I obtained with dir True enough, but the numbers you get from a "dir" seem to be all you need. The numbers will either add up to 2 megs or it won't thus indicating whether your new unit is really a 2 meg unit. I still do not see the problem with this method. Perhaps because of the midterms I have been studying for ( 2 tomorrow ) I am just too numb to see the flaw in my suggestion. In any event, it seems like you are getting a good deal if it is a 2 meg unit and perhaps a better deal ( because of the extra discount ) if it is not a true 2 meg unit.

When Service Merchandise (and presumably other retailers) sell a defective item, like a HP-200LX, the buyer will bring it back to them for exchange. They collect all such returns, and then periodically a factory representative will come around and examine the returned merchandise. Typically, they are only given only 10-20% value for these defective units! Not being familiar with the retail business, I found this somewhat surprising. I guess you want to pick your manufacturers carefully if this practice is widespread. -Chris Lott *********************************************************************** R.

JPEGs we do not do in HV (the HTML "painting" program) Instead, HV will D/L the image, then ask you if you want to view it with LXPIC, if you specified LXPIC as your external viewer. If you say yes, display, LXPIC paints the picture on the screen. When you are done, go back to HV. BTW, I turned LXPIC v6.0 to also do GIFs. Then when LXPIC kicked in on an animated GIF, I pressed V in LXPIC, and voila - Animated GIFs on the palmtop! Works nicely! Our Web page has a few, so you can try it. Try the one right below my picture! :) There is another way too. In this method we will have to be licensed to utilise certain APIs to communicate directly from HV to LXPIC. We have not done that licensing yet, although Stefan and I talked about it at one point. Hope all this helps. Avi M.

For COMPLETELY DISCHARGED NiCd or NiMH cells the charging time is approximately Capacity (mAH)/Charge Rate * ~1.5 for example: 1000 mAH cells @ 100 mA -- 1000/100 =3D 10 * 1.5 =3D 15 Hrs.

Well -- unless you wait outside the factory gate for just-manufactured & charged cells, there's really no such thing as brand new batteries!= The ones you find on the retailer's shelf may have been there days or weeks, and be partially discharged. That's why the package says to charge before use. > ...the voltage is 1.2V so that 2 batteries in a series supposed to > have 2.4V ...what is actually happening with this labelled-voltage?

Using the default modem settings (only Hayes.mdm is provided in d:\_dat), the modem resets and dials apparently OK. With the speaker turned on, I can hear the dialling, ringing and the connect...then a msg comes up 'call not established'. Tried the same thing using a spare XJ1144 modem and it worked. Anyway, the XJ3144 reference guide suggests using the following init string for ccMail Remote: AT&F&C1&D2&S1&MWS95=0 and this works. Email me if you need details on where to set the string. The other thing is that the XJ1144 connects at 19200, but the XJ3144 connects at 14400. Kinda neat being able to do email while running several other apps (ccMail, Filer, Appt, Phone, NoteTaker, StopWatch, Memo, PQ, HPCalc...now just watch it tumble down ).

Not true - you can hexedit command.com and replace all mentions of "DIR" with "LST", for example. Of course, you can only use aliases with the same number of letters. And make sure you type in caps, unless you want to disable the command altogether. I used this method in high school as a security measure to keep people from tampering with DOS-based machines: Give all dos commands cryptic names (DIR becomes QZX, COPY becomes PMFY, etc) and then make batch files called TYPE.BAT, DIR.BAT, etc which run a program that says, say, "Get out of here!¬G¬G¬G¬G¬G" To let legit people use it, i called the original COMMAND.COM .COM. That way, legit people could open up a dos prompt, type the password, and get access to all the normal dos commands. Of cout Of course, to keep people from seeing the password, i used a prompt with the ansi escape sequence to make the text black on black. I also put in the ansi escape sequence to remap ":" to ";" This prevented people from typing "a:command.com" By the way, if this message doesn't show up on the 200LX mailing list in an hour or so, could you forward it there?

Good question. The internal resistance is only an effective measure, not something like an actual resistor. The effective resistance in use would be: (No-load V-loaded V)/load current for example No-load V 2.65 Loaded V 2.59 Load current 50 mA 2.65-2.59=3D.06 .06/.05=3D1.2 ohms BTW - the effective resistance may be different depending on the direction of current (charging or discharging), and probably also changes a little during use. -PR ------------ Peniel Romanelli peniel@web2000.net d021785c@dc.seflin.org ******* HP100LX ---- Post/LX ---- WWW/LX ******* Miami, Florida -- Redefining the term "Political Asylum" -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 12 Mar 1998 12:36:40 -0700 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Sterling Babcock Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Sterling Babcock Subject: Partitioning a PCMCIA card Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII I do not understand how to partition a PCMCIA card.

If that was the case no retail outlet would accept returns on defective items, they would tell you to send it back to the factory. Also, when something is sent back to the factory they relace it under warranty, they don't just give you 10-20% of the value. This sounds like a manager trying to convince someone not to return something, especially since they are discontinuing the item. Pete PS. This reminds me of the one about good returned products. They are not supposed to be resold as new but you know that every store in the country has a shrink wrap machine in the back and many products do end up back on the shelf as new. Peter W.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Be aware that even though the unit may indicate on the shell that it is a "2MB RAM", this includes the drive space as well as the memory used for running the applications. If you go into the Setup screen in the System Manager by doing a ctrl-filer key press combination, you'll see in the upper-left hand corner a box showing 2 numerals, the "System RAM" and the "RAM Disk". These two numbers should add up to 2MB. You will only have a portion of the 2MB for your RAM disk, depending on how much you indicate for system memory in which to run your apps. ---Chris Lott wrote: Ýsnip¨ == Mark J.

Not only do I have more disk storage than my old 386 (it had a 20MB hard disk), but it runs at the same clock speed! I've loaded the machine full of everything I could get my hands on, and still I have 10MB of C: available! The speed upgrade really made a huge difference in performance... Now I can load my 125K California Amateur Radio database in a jiffy! On a related note, I'd like to commend Mack and Times2Tech on a job well done. I sent my machine off via 2nd day air, and Mack turned it around instantly. I had it back within four days. A job well done! I highly recommend the speed upgrade and a RAM expansion to anyone! If you use the palmtop for any applications other than basic PIM, you need this!

Not true - you can hexedit command.com and replace all mentions of "DIR" with "LST", for example. Of course, you can only use aliases with the same number of letters. And make sure you type in caps, unless you want to disable the command altogether. I used this method in high school as a security measure to keep people from tampering with DOS-based machines: Give all dos commands cryptic names (DIR becomes QZX, COPY becomes PMFY, etc) and then make batch files called TYPE.BAT, DIR.BAT, etc which run a program that says, say, "Get out of here!¬G¬G¬G¬G¬G" To let legit people use it, i called the original COMMAND.COM .COM. That way, legit people could open up a dos prompt, type the password, and get access to all the normal dos commands. Of cout Of course, to keep people from seeing the password, i used a prompt with the ansi escape sequence to make the text black on black. I also put in the ansi escape sequence to remap ":" to ";" This prevented people from typing "a:command.com" By the way, if this message doesn't show up on the 200LX mailing list in an hour or so, could you forward it there? I've been having difficulty posting. -Mike --------- End forwarded message ---------- per request Jon _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

I know I've seen a couple of programs on Simtel www.simtel.net that emulate math coprocessors, But I'm usure if they'll work on the 200LX. Good luck!

It's supposed to emulate an 80287 or 80387 math coprocessor, but it seems to work well with the HP's pseudo 80187.

Yes, I am/was aware of this. That is why I added total RAM disk capacity to DOS memory to compute the machine's total RAM. It only came out to 1MB. No matter how I measured or added the numbers. The machine is packed up for return to Service Merchandise, who is sending out a UPS call ticket (?) to have it returned pre-paid. The new replacement unit was located yesterday and is in the mail. I was told by the lady at Service that these sale units are getting *very* hard to find now. They no longer show up as in stock over their mail order system, and they have to poll stores individually to find the remaining stock. If you guys want any, better ack quick. -Chris Lott -- ************************************************************************ R.

I don't. The second paragraph talked about "diddler" which I identified as Twiddler, and posted abouy my experience with it on THE DESKTOP!!! Sorry for all the misunderstanding. The problem with the Twiddler on palmtop is that it has to connections: One to the game port and the other to serial, I believe. It requires it for power and typing. So the problem is obvious. There was a suggestion in HPHAND by Angelica Wilson on how to create battery power for the device. I do not have the detals, sorry. In Handykey's web page, I believe there are some schematics about the circuitry - maybe it can help someone more savvy than I make an adaptation. again, sorry if I mislead more than the two people who wrote to ask for details.

A respected member of this group has told me that his ex-partner was sued by Lotus for reverse-engineering the file formats. For this reason, I am investigating a more lawyer-friendly route by using Lotus' own import/export programs (which should be available to all palmtop users, as we have cc:Mail remote installed on the palmtop). Does anyone have the cc:Mail Remote Import/Export for DOS 1.0 package? If so, could you please send it to me or send me a URL from which I can download it? It's supposed to be freely available on Lotus' support BBS (see http://www.ccmail.com/overview/IMPEXP.HTM), but I can't find it there under any of the file areas. It should include at least the RIMPORT.EXE and REXPORT.EXE files to be useful for me. Once I have these files, then I can modify LXPOP to read and write the files that RIMPORT.EXE and REXPORT.EXE require, thereby providing a PPP to cc:Mail solution on the palmtop which should not upset Lotus. -- Rod Whitby -- Web: -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 13 Mar 1998 16:30:47 -0400 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Ian Melville Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Ian Melville Subject: Re: PCGLOBE 5.0 Comments: To: jienhung@singnet.com.sg MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="__next_part__1198432527__" --__next_part__1198432527__ Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable On Fri, 13 Mar 1998 13:13:35 -0800, Chin Jien Hung wrote: ji> I solved my problem running PCGLOBE version 5.0 on single speed = 200lx.

I would like to confirm this number with you: Is it true that your 33k6 cellular-capable PCMCIA modem will draw only 13ma from the PCMCIA slot when *in use and on line*? I received the following reply: The modems do draw only 13 mA of power. This was from Neil Knack, Technical Support, Viking Components, Inc. Right now, I have an EXP-LXM8, but I will eventually be getting a larger FlashRAM card and a faster modem card. If anyone is in the market for a fast modem NOW, and they decide to try _this_ one, PLEASE let the list know how well it works, and (if you're one of those set up to make current measurements) whether it REALLY is this good! -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jim Saklad mailto:jimdoc@iname.com For PGP public key, finger jsaklad@welchlink.welch.jhu.edu -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 13 Mar 1998 14:31:21 -0600 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , zimm4@JUNO.COM Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Larry Zimmerman Subject: Re: Word 5.5, WP 5.1--print preview I use print preview in WP5.1 but have never had trouble with it locking the system.

I don't know exactly, but there are fairly accurate methods. There aome batteries that have more internal resistance than others. MiCD's resistance grows as they are charged more, as NiMH's. Some alkalines are so resistant that they cannot service some PCMCIA cards, due to the demand for current, which they "refuse" to deliver, causing the voltage to drop so precipitously as to be in danger of reset, I think these are Duracells?

I have a set of NiMH that will go as high as 2.99v, then drop to 2.80. The drop means ABSOLUTELY nothing. miNH niminally are a 1.2v so they should operate there (at 2.4v!) The ONLY THING THAT IS IMPORTANT!!!! is this: Once your battery drops to whereever, HOW LONG DOES IT STAY THERE? The se I mentioned above will stay at 2.80 for maybe 1 hour, then after 2-3 hours will settle at 2.43-2.45v and stay there for about 9-10 hours, for a total service of 13-14 hours which is great. The only important thing about a battery is how much service it provides, at some tolerable voltage (for palmtops over 2.40v to be safe.) The rest of the stuff is a waste of time to concentrate on, really! Avi M.

This battery brand is good. BCC is an old freeware by my company which is not a real good piece of software to use. I recommend ABC/LX, but we also sell it, so let someone else give you feedback on that program. The drop in voltage is nothing to be concerned with. The most important factor to be concerned with is HOW LONG the battery stays in a service range i.e. over 2.40v or so. All the calculations, and so on is meaningless, because your next set of batteries will behave completely differently, in all likelihood. Don't waste your time, get a decent battery charging monitor (ours! :) of course, if you ask me) and forget about it, use your time for something productive and useful that charging and tracking minutes of service on your batteries. Read a book or something, pet a dog, SOMETHING more interesting than squeezing 2 minutes more out of the poor little battery. Let's get real about this all: The cost is minor compared to the palmtop cost, and all the gadgets around it, but we spend more time on that than really important items like a rigorous philosophy of backing up important, irreplacable data!

In-Reply-To: <3509CAA1.74019C56@microworks.net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII One of the unusual things about Times2 Tech's 32MB upgrade is that the 32MB drive uses much less power than the internal drive. This is good because, if your main batteries are removed or go dead, and your backup battery is weak, your motherboard drive may be erased, but the 32MB drive has a good chance of coming through with its data intact. Of course, TOTAL power failure will erase it, but I've had mine apart twice and had the on-motherboard drive go blank each time, but the 32MB drive retained its contents. Now that I think about it, this may be confusing for people who don't have the 32MB upgrade. This is how it works: whatever ram you have built on the motherboard (1mb or 2mb) becomes the only drive visible when you boot clean, with no drivers. Putting RD32.SYS in the config.sys file allows access to the 32MB drive as drive F:, and RD32SWAP (or other disk swapping utilities) can then be used to change the small C: drive for the 32MB drive, and your small drive becomes F:. There are two chief advantages to this system over the way the 4MB and 8MB upgrades work (where it's automatically added to the size of your C: drive). One, RD32.SYS provides much faster access than the built-in disk, on the order of twice as fast. Two, when you do "Initialize RAM disk? Yes," it doesn't erase your 32MB drive. If I've confused anybody, please let me know. :-) -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 13 Mar 1998 17:42:36 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , David Sargeant Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: David Sargeant Subject: Re: Palmtop as a Netware client Comments: To: qman@earthlink.net MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Thanks for the tip!

Depends on what you're doing... CPU speed is critical for searching and what not, but loading and saving will definitely go faster on the 32MB drive. -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 13 Mar 1998 22:49:42 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , mdstockr Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: mdstockr Subject: Re: 32MB upgrade & large databases Comments: To: burkec@goldstate.net Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=us-ascii I have programs (Agenda) now that can not run off an ATA flash RAM card because of speed.

OTOH, an interesting aspect of the internal 32mb to consider is the added security also (maybe). Users with a large flash card have to generally password protect each individual file to get some measure of protection. Now, with a 32mb internal drive, you can just use a power-on password. The only way to get past the password would be to initialize the internal drive which I'm assuming will take out the big guy too....right or wrong? - Longden Net-Tamer V 1.08 Palm Top - Registered -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 14 Mar 1998 00:12:31 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "Don E.

No, initializing the internal RAM doesn't erase the 32MB drive. It must be erased using RD32INIT, a program provided with the upgrade. It's tough to kill. Even low battery conditions that erase the on-motherboard RAM will leave the 32MB drive untouched. (Total power loss will destroy it, of course). It might be possible for Mack to modify the RD32.SYS driver to include a password protection feature, but that might not be practical. Also it might slow down the 32MB drive access, and oen of the bonuses of the 32MB upgrade is its super-speed. :-) -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 14 Mar 1998 23:18:49 +1300 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , David Lawrence Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: David Lawrence Subject: Re: Word 5.5, WP 5.1--print preview MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit > In a message dated 98-03-12 23:48:34 EST, cameronc@IX.NETCOM.COM writes: > > << The ones on Word 5 and 5.5 work. >> > > How did you get the print preview in Word 5 to work?

I haven't done it yet, expect that I will, and when I do it will be based on the response of the people who have done it. It seems like it will be more than worth the price. I have a 10MB (stacked to 20MB), and just going from 2 to 5 MB onboard was a big step up. I am pretty sure that once I can swing it, I will buy the 32 MB upgrade just to have all that hard drive space available. Right now, I still have room, but I did have to make decisions about what to leave out, and I pay a time penalty for stacker. I look forward to having 31 MB available for disk space and not suffering a speed penalty and not having to choose what to load. I was impressed with how fast doubling the speed of my HPLX had on its performance, and I have also found it interesting that I have come to be blase about it so quickly. Think of what you would have paid for 32 MB plain old EDO RAM as recently as two years ago - and now add in the engineering costs to make this work on an HPLX, and then throw in the fact that if we want guys to continue to develop these upgrades, they have to make a profit. I think it is a more than reasonable price right now. I don't the backup issue is all that big of a deal. Of course, if you lose information the road, it would be a problem, but I could keep ALL the data files I need, and several of the software programs that I would want to use on my 10 MB Flash card, which would be impervious to data loss due to a loss of power on the main unit. Right now, I have a detailed appointment book schedule, phone book with over 300 entries, database on the 130 people at my workplace, many (30) spreadsheets, a years worth of quicken data, and many program source code files, but all that put together probably doesn't come up to 3 MB of perishable data. I back up my ram disk weekly to the flashdisk and the whole kit and kaboodle monthly. I just don't see this as an issue. s Brian _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

Here is my opinion on the 32MB upgrade. Five hundred dollars is a lot of money, more than I paid for the 4M unit to begin with. But with the upgrade I believe I've got more than twice the computer I had before. The speed is doubled and the memory is much more than doubled. On top of this, the improvements are seamlessly integrated into the elegant HP package. The computer now does *everything* I want it to. To put this into some sort of perspective, let me tell you my home desktop computer is a 16MHz 286 with a 60MB hard drive. The two computers are now really quite comparable. I ask you this: if all you are doing is text based, what does anything over 16MHz gain for you? I would also suggest that the opinions of those who have not tried the upgrade may not be as meaningful as the opinions of those who have. On a final note, Mack did a *great* job, and very quickly too!

If HP is through supporting us, we must be greatful to those who do. I'm now convinced. My only open question is whether to have my current model re-upgraded, or if I should get one of the Service Merchandise closeouts, and end up with a back-up. lynn -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 14 Mar 1998 17:45:46 -0800 Reply-To: burkec@goldstate.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Colin Thompson Subject: Re: 32 MB upgrade Comments: To: John Musielewicz MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit People, Wooooh there!

The second option is probably the best thing to do... who can't use an extra 200LX? :-) But if it's too expensive, yes, your current model can be re-upgraded, and they offer a trade-in depending on which upgrade you have. I think it's $125 for the 8MB upgrade and $50 for the 4MB. -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 13 Mar 1998 20:04:13 -0700 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Bill Coleman Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Bill Coleman Subject: Re: 32 MB upgrade Comments: To: John Musielewicz MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit It is NOT what it costs that counts, it is what it will do for you or what you will do with it that counts.

I believe that Mack is offering an excellent product, very reasonably priced with excellent support and double speed to boot. I think this is a great step forward for the 200lx and we need to praise individuals like Mack instead of talking profit margins. We should be thanking Mack for helping to keep our 200lx on the market. It's only a matter of time till I add hi 30 pls megs to my 200lx and then have over 70 megs of storage.

SanDisk flash cards are available at both Office Place and Computer City; Computer City (Mississauga, North York, and Markham) has a wider range of sizes. Or, try a camera store. Cables are harder to come by. Battery Plus used to sell the 200LX, and head office might be willing to order a cable for you: (905) 712-0297 or 1-800-693-7587. Battery Plus also carries Simple flash cards and wonderful GP NiMH AAs. When I was looking for a flash card last fall, some Compucentre stores had old 200LX stock, so one might have a cable. No flash cards (and not much willingness to order) at the time. Another potential source is Computer Supply Express of Mississauga ((905) 855-1230), which was willing to order a flash card (and could probably source the cable) =2E = >Also, does the Transfile program from HP allow you >to add to view/edit the database files ? No. HP's connectivity pack does. (I think you can get a cable pack with it too, but I'm not sure.) IntelliSync includes the cable, and can export to dbf, but not edit. (Aside: I got a tremendous deal on a Zoom PC 14.4 last week at the Office Place in Oakville: $Cdn 19.88 + tax. Works great.)

I don't think there will be anything more in the way of speed upgrades. And it will probably be a while yet before we see any larger memory upgrades. If you have the money, I'd say DEFINITELY get the speed upgrade, and the 32MB upgrade if you can afford it-- it makes the palmtop so much more useful it's definitely worth it. -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 15 Mar 1998 00:11:52 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Ian Butler Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Ian Butler Subject: Re: PowerChess 5.3 Comments: To: Chris Pimlott In-Reply-To: <3.0.32.19980312204804.0072d5f0@mail.softhome.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" At 08:49 PM 3/12/98 -0500, you wrote: > I would be interested to know how the computer thinking times are for a >good match...

There's a DOS port available, and GNU Chess is a very well respected chess program. You'll need to come up with an ANSI driver too, as it's a direct port from UNIX and as such expects a smart terminal. Look for the GNUish project at http://www.simtel.net/simtel.net/ for the program. Also, another wonderful GNUish port is GNU Plot, if you do any graphing at all. As with eeverything, these things run a whole bunch better on a double speed processor.

A standard memory upgrade can be bought in quantities ranging to hundreds of thousands and even more. The price at such quantites drops by factors several fold more than what you assume (below 2 fold). This allows large discounts. Mack does not deal with such quantities. I also find it exceptionally rude (and frankly, uninformed to an amazing degree!) that you take upon yourself to dictate what a "fair" profit for Mack should be. What do you know about his business? If you think you can do it better, do it, and beat him at this game. If you cannot, don't smear his good name in our community, please. Last item: I can understand the hesitation in jumping and buying it. It _is_ a lot of money. If you cannot see the benfit to _you_ of taking $500 and putting it into the gadget, that's fair! Many people do not even buy palmtops, because they don't think it is useful to them. Can't argue with that. But you go a step further, and that is uncalled for: You offend and hurt a vendor that has been exceptional in this community. You owe Mack an apology IMHO.

You unhook the mouse? Or do you mean that you've got two comm ports AND an internal modem? In that case, often the problem is an IRQ conflict between com1/com3 or com2/com4. If that's your problem, then you have to change an IRQ (usually on your internal modem.) I use HP's Connectivity Pack to actually transfer files between my computer and my HP.

Having seen Mack work his magic firsthand on my 200LX by performing a speed upgrade and a 8MB upgrade while I waited and watched, I can assure everyone that he has definately put a lot of time and effort into devoloping both software drivers and harware (crystals, etched PC boards & RAM chips) and I really don't understand why someone in our little family here could possibly have anything bad to say about Mack. You should see the large amount of late model test equipment that he has in his possesion, some of which I would love to have, which he uses in his developement process. Why would anyone gripe about a price, if you don't like it, don't get it, just go buy a flash card.

I just fired up Mirc (used by my teenaged daughter) and was faced with a very user-unfriendly interface :( I found a Dalnet (which connected using my daughter's handle) and typed in #hplx as you suggested - nothing. I think what you meant was, after connecting to a Dalnet server, you must type in /join #hplx. There's more to it than that. Don't you have to register on the server if on for first time? When I connected to #hplx, you weren't there! If this chat thing is to work (I'm not sure that it's needed with the speed and scope of this mailing list), you perhaps should set meeting times and perhaps topics in advance in this mail list (keeping in mind that some of us get delayed message because of the digest format).

We have very few vendors in our community. My personal experience is that it is lots and lots of caring, and only a little bit of profit. Most of us seek other employment and income sources, and do not rely on this market alone. We stay in it because there is profit, no doubt, but also because it is tremendous fun to interact with a (mostly) intelligent group who use their brains for something other than driving nails into the wall.

Perhaps. But I don't want to leave the mailing list, for a few reasons: 1) Closed discussion group. Only people that want to be here are here, as the sheer quantity of mail would be a burden for anyone else. Being closed, we're not constantly discussing newbie questions. Look at comp.sys.hp48 archives from 4 years ago and 4 months ago; they'll be talking about the same stuff. We actually get somewhere. 2) No spam. Because of the above reason, we are shielded from spam. This is definitely a Good Thing. 3) Activity. A list encourages activity more than a newsgroup, because posting is as easy as replying to an email. 4) Access. Anyone with an email account can use this list. Arguably, anyone with access to DejaNews could use comp.sys.hp200 as well, but I feel Usenet just isn't the place to put this family. Essentially, a closed list server is the next step up from a Usenet group. We should be counting our blessings that we don't have to deal with Usenet. Leave the carcass of comp.sys.palmtops.hp to be eaten by the CE crowd; we got our own thing now. Ian Butler Advanced Software Systems, Inc.

I love my HP200LX. It is an invaluable tool in my business and I would be severly handicapped if I didn't have it. Several times I've returned home to retrieve it after discovering that I didn't have it once arriving at work. I have over 1,100 names and addresses loaded into it. I use TRANSFILE to back it up onto my laptop pc. Now that's said. MY value (ROA-Return On Assets) is different than yours as it is different than others. I have a perspective that says if I spend $500-$1,000 on a new organizer/computer that has a supported platform for the next 5 years (an eternity in pc land) then I have received great ROA. I have no problem with those that find great value for the current 32Mb upgrade. To those people, the HPLX has tremendous value that is far beyond the $500. that the upgrade price represents. I'm just saying that no one can tell me that MY needs will be satisfied with an HPLX that cannot run the next generation of new software and support some of the new graphical standards that are being developed. Today, it fits perfectly for what I need. Tomorrow, I'll need to assess what is on the market vs. my HPLX. Isn't that rational? I have not purchased anything from Mack. However, from the testimonials that I've seen, he deserves everyone's support. He deserves a reasonable profit (only he knows what percentage). If there is room in the market, then there will be competition. Bottom line. Determine what is best for your own individual needs and let competition (and a good reputation) determine the fair market value for a product or service that you spend your hard earned money on. I think that we can get beyond the name calling.

I use an old version of NT (1.08) so I don't know how much of this is applicable to your (1.10-1.11) release. Nettamer has a dialler component (nettamer.exe) and a reader component (reader.exe). The "archive/current mail file" screen is the reader component that's automatically invoked after dialling (whether that was successful or not). I use the XJ3144, and dialler portion usually fills the screen with dialling/connect info (including the IP address and connect speed). Email me privately if you don't get a response from a user of a more current version. I hadn't upgraded only cuz I keep hearing about problems after 1.08.

Just get a new one that does what you need. Funny, I did about the same thing (new 200LX from Service Merchandise, and it's going under Mack's knife). And that is what I think I am doing, getting a new one that does what I need. I'm inventorying my computer collection. I've been through about 2500 items and am guessing at this point that I have about 10,000. The database, using the 200LX built-in database software, is getting slow and I am finding other things it doesn't do real well. This is after having loaded FASTDB.TSR and moved the database off the Stackered flash disk and into RAM just to see how much of a performance hit I was taking from that. This made a visible difference, but it's still not as fast as I'd like (meaning I wait a few seconds after adding or modifying a record, which may not seem like much but it sure throws me off my data-entry stride) and it's clear that I'm going to exceed what I can fit on my C: disk. It's also clear that I'm going to exceed the suggested limits of the built-in database library and I really don't want a lot of firsthand experience with its catastrophic failure modes. So now I'm looking at a dBase III clone and figuring out how to move my data over to that. >Oh, well. She is confirmed in her belief that the only difference between men >and boys is the price of their toys. Nah, there's also how fast the toys go and how big a bang they make. But seriously: the ~$300 + ~$500 I am paying for this compares pretty well with the Fry's ad in today's San Jose Mercury which offers the 620LX for $847 (and yes I know I can get cheaper 620LXs and other WinCE machines). What really makes it favorable from my point of view is that I know the money I'm spending will yield something that works. I looked at the 620LX and WinCE machines in general and couldn't convince myself of that. -Frank McConnell -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 16 Mar 1998 16:17:46 +1100 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Brendan Macmillan Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Brendan Macmillan Subject: Re: OUR Development In-Reply-To: <3.0.5.16.19980314224301.2c47abb2@mail.caspers.net> from "Ian Butler" at Mar 15, 98 00:12:14 am MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit > The OUR project was discontinued a while ago.

You unhook the mouse? Or do you mean that you've got two comm ports AND an internal modem? In that case, often the problem is an IRQ conflict between com1/com3 or com2/com4. If that's your problem, then you have to change an IRQ (usually on your internal modem.) I use HP's Connectivity Pack to actually transfer files between my computer and my HP.

Zip?) or if you can program, you can homebrew your own with the PAL library. -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ------ =_NextPart_000_01BD50ED.EF3C0040 Content-Type: application/ms-tnef Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 eJ8+IhwIAQaQCAAEAAAAAAABAAEAAQeQBgAIAAAAagMAAAAAAABtAAEIgAcAGAAAAElQTS5NaWNy b3NvZnQgTWFpbC5Ob3RlADEIAQ2ABAACAAAAAgACAAEEkAYAqAEAAAEAAAAQAAAAAwAAMAIAAAAL AA8OAAAAAAIB/w8BAAAASAAAAAAAAACBKx+kvqMQGZ1uAN0BD1QCAAAAAEhQTFggTWFpbGluZyBM aXN0AFNNVFAASFBMWC1MQFVDT05OVk0uVUNPTk4uRURVAB4AAjABAAAABQAAAFNNVFAAAAAAHgAD MAEAAAAZAAAASFBMWC1MQFVDT05OVk0uVUNPTk4uRURVAAAAAAMAFQwBAAAAAwD+DwYAAAAeAAEw AQAAABQAAAAnSFBMWCBNYWlsaW5nIExpc3QnAAIBCzABAAAAHgAAAFNNVFA6SFBMWC1MQFVDT05O Vk0uVUNPTk4uRURVAAAAAwAAOQAAAAALAEA6AQAAAB4A9l8BAAAAEgAAAEhQTFggTWFpbGluZyBM aXN0AAAAAgH3XwEAAABIAAAAAAAAAIErH6S+oxAZnW4A3QEPVAIAAAAASFBMWCBNYWlsaW5nIExp c3QAU01UUABIUExYLUxAVUNPTk5WTS5VQ09OTi5FRFUAAwD9XwEAAAADAP9fAAAAAAIB9g8BAAAA BAAAAAAAAAIpTwEEgAEAGAAAAFJFOiBjb25uZWN0aW5nIGhwIHRvIHBjAAcIAQWAAwAOAAAAzgcD ABAADwAMABoAAQAeAQEggAMADgAAAM4HAwAQAA8ACQAhAAEAIgEBCYABACEAAAA1NERERTJGM0M3 QkNEMTExQjU2ODAwQTAyNEExQkE5NgA3BwEDkAYA9AcAACEAAAALAAIAAQAAAAsAIwAAAAAAAwAm AAAAAAALACkAAAAAAAMALgAAAAAAAwA2AAAAAABAADkA4K18QbNQvQEeAHAAAQAAABgAAABSRTog Y29ubmVjdGluZyBocCB0byBwYwACAXEAAQAAABYAAAABvVCzQSHz4t1VvMcR0bVoAKAkobqWAAAe AB4MAQAAAAUAAABTTVRQAAAAAB4AHwwBAAAAFAAAAHN1cmVlQDdlbGV2ZW4uY28udGgAAwAGEG/W voQDAAcQ9AMAAB4ACBABAAAAZQAAAElIQVZFQU5PVEhFUlBST0JMRU0sSVRSWVRPQ09OTkVDVE1Z TFgyMDBXSVRITk9URUJPT0tSVU5OSU5HV0lOOTVWSUFJTkZSQVJFRFBPUlQoQ09NMilCVVRJVERP RVNOT1RXT1IAAAAAAgEJEAEAAADZBAAA1QQAABsHAABMWkZ1y3A1I3cACgEDAfcgAqQD4wIAY0Jo CsBzZXQyD+Ag3whQCyAHMAeyAoB9CoAIyMQgOwlvMjU1AoAKgWx1YwBQCwNjAEELYG4gZzEwMzML pTggREkgD4B2ZSAAcG9kdGgEkCBwA2ACYGVEbSwVMXRyeRbQb7IgBaBubgWQBUBtFwDkbHgB0DAg A/AV4AewBRXQZQbgb2sgcnULF3ALgGcYUW45NSD+dhBhC4ADUArACYAWIAkRACAoQ09NMikuMCAg QnUFQBhwIGRebweRFcEYUAWwaxuhQUxueQIgFZB3aBcwa2cVwAfgFeEgcwbwG+BpZwIgFqALUGVh D7AVoGQnGiAPsBuhKGkcMW4n1wVAFWMXVWkaIHQXAAqweGNrKQqiCoQKhAswbPhpMzYBQBPwAUAW MRjQhRehLSRiXCdhMiSwtGU5JLBjCzAkwDQlMRo3JLBkJOETcSdiNdUk9GIlIWEm4mEl8SZi/mEk ZCI1I/QjwQsTI/QCAGBpLTE0NAFAI0AxvjgYMAzBKoMMMCTAOCX0qGExOgyDYhhARQUQGGMgVwIg GaBbU01gVFA6ZWcc0BRQQKhORVQbUS4bUV0iJdUrsWMnoWUr8WEl4QpgvSY0ZDBiK/ElUCyHMRoA nzC1JqEnEiwjJaIxIBLgZjQz4CqAOjAloC9HYh42JfE1UTBQLIdIUEwgWC1MQFUbUE5OhlYu0Dbj LkVEVS84jzCTFKAxCTWrUmU6IPfpGZFocBcScADgKJ8pqY8jRBQ0NBAiJFNpTRhQNyPyLIAiMz4/ pRfAYXmOYhWQGHAEIGp1cxexumUWoGIb4RVFAiBsFwDzEAAFoG1tGuMEIB1zGHJ/A5ELgBjQBKAH QBfABHFt/0AWHkIV1BhjHkIEYEFAQZH/HcAH4BxAGlAXRx5CO3QeQrU70D8VoGwegB2hYSowd0Al FjEJwGFDEEeRHWB1qiBHAT8iKllLUm4dwOcZEUanSWAgTwXASxUHgK8DkRXgSfBLMicVgWccoY50 HNBC2SIkQU5ERB+6bU3BSU7FL9BHEm8BgD8J8Ej0FkQaUAQgA5FJUvZRIiQXUWYjQBehQMBP4NMJ 4ULSMS9C4TNCYAXAlULhMlbiNBuhSWZO0/4nBCBLQRYYIiQV4QOgS0L/FWMXIg+AFFAVklTyGzBB QL51B0BCkQIgWMREXC4iG78VQEcBNmFYoQhQISlQIeG7FxIA0HRcJBbgAHFmFgE/KlAWcAQgViYX 0FU2bXD/G+AWAQBwGtAX0TZwWARaVu8gck+jSeEWoSdDEFwQCXD7TtQV4mUiJBqhReVKlUNxdxvh ZwMbMFRhY2HxTcFa+QUgPylXMgaQSzMv0AOg30qVWZVrFh3AB4BiCXAH4I9Y0x4QA6BGV1BBTBfw 5mltMArAeS4iKiRjcG9LcX8oOSpzQERPB7BPElRgME9Tc8BCSU4AQVJZIEZJTEVFBfBUc4BUSEkF 8EytdVBUc0EiJEYFsVUAgNx1YgTyQMEJcHEKUEFQonMWoEZBURagJnVw/wQABUAHEA9wIXAHkBag D7CXFZA/lRPjdQMgSFQt4QgvL3d68C5zcC4LE2AXYS4JgHUvfm0fD3AWgFbQNnJ7IGh0bb8JUCOi elApYyJmEOEAfqAAAAADABAQAAAAAAMAERAAAAAAAwCAEP////9AAAcwwHJd2rJQvQFAAAgwwHJd 2rJQvQELAACACCAGAAAAAADAAAAAAAAARgAAAAADhQAAAAAAAAMAAoAIIAYAAAAAAMAAAAAAAABG AAAAABCFAAAAAAAAAwAFgAggBgAAAAAAwAAAAAAAAEYAAAAAUoUAANsQAAAeACWACCAGAAAAAADA AAAAAAAARgAAAABUhQAAAQAAAAQAAAA4LjAAAwAmgAggBgAAAAAAwAAAAAAAAEYAAAAAAYUAAAAA AAALAC+ACCAGAAAAAADAAAAAAAAARgAAAAAOhQAAAAAAAAMAMIAIIAYAAAAAAMAAAAAAAABGAAAA ABGFAAAAAAAAAwAygAggBgAAAAAAwAAAAAAAAEYAAAAAGIUAAAAAAAAeAEGACCAGAAAAAADAAAAA AAAARgAAAAA2hQAAAQAAAAEAAAAAAAAAHgBCgAggBgAAAAAAwAAAAAAAAEYAAAAAN4UAAAEAAAAB AAAAAAAAAB4AQ4AIIAYAAAAAAMAAAAAAAABGAAAAADiFAAABAAAAAQAAAAAAAAAeAD0AAQAAAAUA AABSRTogAAAAAAMADTT9NwAA3gc= ------ =_NextPart_000_01BD50ED.EF3C0040-- -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 16 Mar 1996 08:11:52 -0500 Reply-To: "store4u@troutsegall.com" Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Alex Arancio Organization: Trout, Segall & Doyle LLC Subject: Re: Irc channel Comments: To: Storeforu MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit * Hey..Crapman...hope your not...

I solved this problem with an external serial port switch box. There are a number of vendors of such things, but I located one at a local electronics shop for a substantial discount (about $8) - seems like normally they run $40-50 from a company like Black Box. I have one at my office and one at home. I can select between my modem, my palmtop, or any other accessories (Packet Radio TNC, GPS receiver, etc.). This solution works great for me, and it is easier than installing an expansion serial port card. Now if you need simultaneous access to the palmtop and the modem, then you have to go with additional serial ports. > also what program do you use? I've used the HP Connectivity pack for over 3 years without any problems. -Chris Lott *********************************************************************** R.

After blocking two screens of text, I got an error message when I tried to copy (Fn-copy). I don't recall the exact message, but it said something like "unable to put into clipboard". I have always used the default allocation (4k) and have never seen this before. I have *not* used Pal Edit much, and also just had my 4MB 200LX upgraded to double speed and 32MB. One other interesting factor--copying to the clipboard from Data Comm seems to more of a screen grab. I.e., no selecting or blocking of text is done first. This morning I was again unable to use the clipboard until I rebooted the LX. I did *not* have Pal Edit open. I am troubled by this behavior and would like other thoughts on it. What I've done so far is to increase the clipboard size. I'll try it some more tonight and see if that helps, but was wondering if anyone else had seen anything like this?

Agenda is it its own class. It certainly is in theory a much better database that IS but there are some problems with Agenda 1) It's slow! Almost everyone who uses it wants to get a speed upgrade. However if you already have a speed upgrade the speed is probably no problem. 2) Data corruption is a real problem with this database. I've never had a data corruption error on IS but Agenda users routinely say they have problems with this problem. Like the first problem this is solved by running a routine nightly to help with this problem. However, everyone I know who has used Agenda says it's wonderful. Certainly it is the most unusual of the other PIMs available for the HP. I don't have any problems with someone picking Agenda over any other PIM. I think when we post messages on the list about Agenda we should note the problems that it has, just as we should do the same with IS and AskSAM. Personally if I were going to switch to a database it would be AskSAM just because I'd like the ability to sift through a vast amount of data without having any size limit. More likely I'd keep IS (or if I were an Agenda user I'd keep that PIM) for my addresses and odd notes. AskSAM is the kind of product where you keep an archive of all your e-mail or long reference works. Of course it would be great if AskSAM was a heck of a lot cheaper, too :-) === Dave Hart (hartd@poboxes.com) Beavercreek (Dayton), OH USA Join the effort to bring Catholic Radio to the Miami Valley Miami Valley Catholic Radio Pillar of Fire, Pillar of Truth Date: Wed, 11 Mar 1998 16:32:59 -0500 From: mdstockr Subject: Re: AskSam/InfoSelect - Agenda The problem is a simple one, you saved the images to 1.44MB formatted floppies. You need to format your floppies to 720KB to map the images correctly to your diskettes. This is a great database for the management of a large number of small pieces of information in text format. Extremely powerful and flexible. If you have a real need for this program, there is nothing else like it. The down side, because this program is so flexible, some people have problems getting a handle on how to use the program. Note - To run Agenda on a 200LX your need to 1) install it on your C: drive if you're using a flash RAM card (speed!) and 2) run Agenda under MaxDOS. If you decide to proceed with using Agenda, you might want to join the PIM-list listed below.

One way to help avoid corruption of Agenda data files on the 200LX is to close the database file periodically. When you close the file, Agenda takes care of some house cleaning chores, which left undone long term can lead to file corruption. This was never a real problem with old DOS PC's, put with the 200LX's ability to never really turn-off, this can become a problem.

I can confirm that it works both with the Toshiba Libretto and the HP200 LX, using the software I got from Trimble. It takes about 2 minutes for it to find a few sattelites. I got signal from about 4 and it correctly told me I was about 55 km from New York. I mailed Trimble this afternoon and they told me I was free to distribute the software. If any of you order the device, be sure to only get the receiver. The big blue box and computer + floppy are not required AT ALL. Before ordering it, consider the down side: this is not a NEAM protocol compatible receiver so a lot of the software out there will not work (yet?). Any questions, mail me.

I was just thinking that there are probably going to be new users who won't know about the list, who would find the newsgroup, and also lazy people who don't want to join a mailing list but would like a newsgroup...

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hello all, my first posting here! :-) My asumptions are that the cable I made for and that works on an Omnigo 100 without problems will work on a Omnigo 700LX and that comm programs for the 200LX will work on a 700LX, which is what I have! + a Nokia 2110. :-) So... The HP Intellisync software works, I am able to backup and restore my data, also because of problems I used it to send files to the 700 (copied file to backup catalog and restored it). So the cable does seem to work, com ports on pc and 700lx work. But Transfile200 doesn't! No way I get it to work, although I have followed instructions in the help file. Tried F6 Remote and F10 Connect. No connection message both from pc and 700lx. Running 9600 or 19200, server enabled. Handshaking problem? Where does one set up handshaking in Filer? In Transfile200? I can't find that. Seems to be automatic or that each is waiting for a special 200lx response... Also set up Datacom on 700lx and Terminal in W95 to communicate. I can get each computer to mirror typing on the other's keyboard, so communication is ok. But I can not transfer files! Handshaking problem? Tried X, Y and Zmodem, Kermit etc, played with hardware/software handshaking. Cable problem? Anyone have any ideas? Next step is to check/make a new cable, or buy an infrared set for my pc! Thought I would ask here first... Could it be that Intellisync is intelligent enough to handle a strange cable/handshaking bug? Wonderfull thing this 700LX. No wonder people are enthusiastic about it, I just love the screen, much better that my ogo. Anybody know about upgrading RAM and speed? Same as the 200LX? Goodnight!

No, there are no genuine viruses that spread through READING of e-mail. Attachments that are executed are a potential source of viruses, but, you do have to execute them first. There are, however, plenty of HOAXES floating around "warning" people about e-mail viruses. There are numerous web sites dealing with the numerous hoax "warnings" floating around. In fact a variant of one such hoax was posted to this list a few weeks ago, though it was more of a joke on Microsoft than a hoax... the "Bill Gates is tracking your e-mail and will pay you $1000" letter. -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 16 Mar 1998 16:39:46 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Marta Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Marta Subject: Re: 32 MB upgrade Comments: To: Cavendishl MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cavendishl wrote: > > Now my wife is convinced that I am crazy. > > Oh, well.

Back in my time, we had to switch around the vacuum tubes to make the computer do anything.

Daylight savings is now extended a few weeks longer than it used to be (means I am going to work in the dark at 7 am at the moment). It has changed a number of times and it seems my current setting is wrong as when I ran World Time, it reset it, even though I had previously modified timezone.dat. After trawling the web for details, found the following information Daylight Saving for 1997/1998 South Australia 26/10/97 To 29/3/98 Victoria 26/10/97 To 29/3/98 ACT 26/10/97 To 29/3/98 NSW 26/10/97 To 29/3/98 Tasmania 5/10/97 To 29/3/98 The other states and territories do not observe daylight time at all, so you can change time zones by simply travelling north/south (don't ask about Tasmania, they're just an embaressment to the rest of the country :) ) So, you need to edit the file c:\_dat\timezone.dat. Add the lines at the end of the file as follows: Australia 3:29-4 6 0:00 10:25-31 6 1:00 (you can also put one in for Tasmania as well, but I think Hobart is the only city there in the HP database ?) I've checked and this format works OK. The meaning should be self-explanatory (apart from the 6 - anyone ?). When you fire up World Time again, it should now give you the option of changing the Australian Time Zone. Also remember that Australia (east coast) is up to 19 hours ahead of the U.S. so it will generally be a day ahead. Hence if you call on a Saturday, it may be Sunday in Aus and Daylight Savings will have changed there, but your HP still thinks it is Saturday and so will not have made the change. Hope this all makes sense.

The Caribbean Drive location is supposed to be the "hardware" Weird Stuff, and there is supposed to be a "software" store somewhere in Fremont. I've never been there. They've got a graphics-laden web site at http://www.weirdstuff.com/ if you want to check it out. Herb's Software is across Brokaw from Fry's San Jose location. They've got what seems to be a slowly-emptying aisle or two of MS-DOS applications, some kind of pricey, some very reasonable. Lately it is more Win 3.x stuff though. The Computer Recycling Center takes donated computers and refurbishes them for schools. They also have sales of random old computer stuff (books, hardware, software, most used) that I guess they figure they can't place. These sales are held from 0900-1300 every Saturday, maybe modulo Big Holidays and other catastrophic events. They're at 2971 Mead in Santa Clara, and I think have a web site at http://www.crc.org/ . OK, now y'all know most of my secrets for finding stuff like this, but they don't work 100%. For example: anybody got a legitimate Digitalk Smalltalk for DOS package to sell? There's something I'd like to dink with on the palmtop and haven't been able to find. -Frank McConnell -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 17 Mar 1998 18:58:33 +0000 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Al Sender: HPLX Mailing List Comments: Authenticated sender is From: Al Subject: Re : Time difference between US and Australia In-Reply-To: <9803170553.AA16248@bragg> MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT This is a great information, thanx.

Now that Windows 2.03 appears to work with Software Carousel, I'd like to be able to swap between it and Lotus Agenda, which I have configured to use EMM as well. If I can get this working, I think I'll finally upgrade my 1MB 200lx (with 10meg flash) to 32M. If you're wondering how I can run several full sized SC areas, and still have room for the system manager and 250K EMM on my tiny 1M LX, here's how: I use JAM to compress a large portion of my flash card, and use the 'jswap' utility to make the JAMmed drive my C: drive.

Seems there are a couple of good questions we could ask. First, are there any other (older) DOS versions that will run on an earlier processor? Does the program really require 386 features, or is this just how it was compiled?? Are there any third party .pdf DOS readers available from Adobe partners?

Unlike all modern electronic calculators, which typically limit you to 10¬127, 10¬499, or some similar arbitrary number.

You know... my wife is a mental health therapist, and she has successfully treated people with disorders similar to yours. Let me give you a hint on how to deal with this until you get professional help. There are small things in life and there are big things in life. This is one of those small little things that normal people just ignore and move on with their lives. Try to forget about the small things, take a deep breath, eat some popcorn, maybe even have a beer. Count to ten, count sheep, count your blessings that this is one of your problems and not cancer, AIDS, blindness, or some terminal illness. This way, you'll have more energy to deal with the big things in life.

I saw the first flame in recent memory two weeks ago, and I saw the cascade of unfriendly, rude, and just downright obnoxious messages that followed, on nearly every thread this list is carrying right now. Something _needs_ to change, and it can't be legislated by Al Kind, nor anyone else. We need to change atttitudes. I could have said, "Anyone who follows up this thread will be obliterated by me and my good friend Guido." But I won't, because _I don't like flame_. I like this list.

It is interesting to me that those who "lurk" on the list are now coming out of their caves to bitch about other people who bitch about bitching at community heroes (mainly Mack, for trying to stay in business by selling above cost). >Count me as number 3. This list is full of whining morons that are much more concerned about the date of a message than the content. I'm sure _that_ made _lots_ of friends, Alex! Calm down! And think. This list closes, and a new moderated newsgroup opens. Who moderates it? Probably one of the "whining morons" from this list. Who reads a moderated newsgroup? Nobody. Because they're run by "whining morons". Pretty soon, all the "whining morons" who had to move to the moderated newsgroup, open a list. Where are we then? Exactly where we are now. So maybe all of us "whining morons" should stay where we are, and be happy. >imho i agree hundred percent with david sargeant's idea. after 3 days of >subscription to your actual team, i got more than 200 msgs and less than 1 >percent is usefull. >sorry, i am not beeing rude, but that is a lot. ¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬ Nope, you aren't.

When could be the reason? Hi Ron- Just checked in a back issue of the Palmtop Paper. If you create a= new timezone, you need to edit the entry for each city in the new zone.= PTP's instructions: "Start WorldTime, highlight the city you want to edit, and press ÝENTER¨ to go to the individual city data screen. Press ÝALT¨-M to choose Automatic Daylight Savings and press ÝENTER¨ once to go to the chioce box. Use the Down or UpArrow keys to scroll through the list= and highlight the correct timezone. Press ÝF10¨ to save your selection." You'll need to do this with all the Australian cities. Hope this helps. -PR ------------ Peniel Romanelli peniel@web2000.net d021785c@dc.seflin.org ******* HP100LX ---- Post/LX ---- WWW/LX ******* Miami, Florida -- Redefining the term "Political Asylum" -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 17 Mar 1998 20:02:41 -0500 Reply-To: malkajef@orthohelp.com Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Jeff Malka Subject: Re: Macro's DBase Comments: To: Russell Hemery In-Reply-To: ->I want to run a macro to close all apps then do backups..

Go to www.isn.com and search for Simple Technologies 40MB card. I believe the part number is has STI40 in it. It's only $270, and it's one of the best flash cards around. Sometimes they're out of stock though... On the other hand, you might want to wait, as Bernie Torbik has said that they will soon be coming out with cheaper, higher-capacity cards like 64MB cards for not much more money. -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 17 Mar 1998 18:55:16 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , David Sargeant Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: David Sargeant Subject: List statistics?

Hi All- I've recently been asking questions on why my IrDA print drivers don't seem to work on my 200LX. Thanks for all the kind answers. Through some troubleshooting, however, I've come to the conclusion that the problem is probably (I put the liklihood at ~95%) a failed IR light bulb in the palmtop... So, that leads to my wondering if I can replace this light bulb? I've had the 200LX open to install Mack's 2x speed upgrade and 4MB RAM upgrade, and I'm guessing I'd have to open it again to replace the light bulb, but I'm wondering if anyone here has any experience with this. Maybe all I need to do is just unscrew the old one and screw in the new one, but I dunno. And besides, where would I find the replacement light bulb?

I tried various ways of using the IR capability: Everything from attempting to print to my IrDA compliant printer (I know the problem is not with the printer, because this was successful with another 200LX), to running a program called Remote Commander (designed to turn your 200LX into a remote control for your stereo - kinda slick), to trying to link up two 200LX's via the IR interface. In the latter case, with other palmtop sitting next to mine and me having just pressed "connect" on the other palmtop, both say something like: "attempting to establish connection", but the connection fails. When I press "connect" on mine, the other palmtop doesn't acknowledge. In other words, my 200LX can "hear" the other 200LX, but the other 200LX cannot "hear" mine. When I factor in the fact that I've dropped mine on several occasions, I figure it's probably not all that unlikely that the bulb filament failed or something. I dunno. I just figure that it's probably that because of all the evidence. I have a x2 upgraded 200LX and considered that this upgrade might have something to do with it, but then someone else on the list told me that they have the IrDA print drivers running on their x2 upgraded 200LX, so that's probably not it. I can't come up with anything other than the bulb. I'm open to ideas, though. > The Radio Shack infared cards probably won't show the > IR's output due to it's low levels.

I just figure that it's probably that Actually, there is no filament per se. It's an LED, which works by sending electrons across a junction of silicon; at the point the two dissimilar types join, light photons are emitted when you pass electricity through it. They're usually surrounded by a thick plastic shell, and for this reason are almost IMPOSSIBLE to destroy. You can kill them fairly quickly by reversing polarity or by overvoltaging them, but they'll stand up to a LOT of physical abuse. Have you tried connecting with the wired serial port? If that doesn't work, it's likely something on the motherboard and not the LED itself that's failed. -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 17 Mar 1998 23:11:01 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , David Kramer Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: David Kramer Subject: Re: Failed IR bulb in 200LX?

Well, with a name like 'HPLX' you'd expect it to cover all HPLX palmtops, which it does (doesn't it??)- it just happens to correspond to mainly the 200LX and occasionally the 100 and 95LX. The 100LX is very similar to the 200, so a lot of things apply to both series. The 95LX is different, yet I couldn't think of a better place for a 95LX user to ask a question since some of the readers (including myself) are former 95LX users. Believe me, I've tried asking 95LX related questions in the palmtop newsgroups and I got no help at all. You'd have a much better chance on the list. As for all the messages you don't find appropriate: "DELETE THEM!". When I first joined the list I tried to read/browse through everything. It soon became too much, however, and now I delete things depending on topic (obviously if I'm not sure what the topic covers I read the message). I think this "quick and dirty" selection can be justified - afterall if we say that a discussion on using Lotus Agenda is going on (as it has several times already) and I know I have no intentions of using Agenda on my LX then the chances of me adding anything constructive to the discussion are slim at best and thus I might as well delete the messages without reading them. > >we should organize a new team, with people that want to hear specifically on > >theyr model, in my case the hp 200 lx. > >lets think about that ?? > >david, if you want, i am number two on your team. > > I'm sure David is cursing himself for ever mentioning it.

From a quick look I could tell (count) the following information: Since 'Sat, 28 Feb 1998 21:16:59 -0800' you have posted 52 messages. 46 of those have been replies to other messages and the last 6 have been new messages. Since 'Mon, 2 Mar 1998 00:28:32 +0100' I have posted 11 messages. 9 of those have been replies to other messages and the last 2 have been new messages. (NOTE: these figures may be off by one, I didn't bother to check.) It's not that hard to do - I merely copied from a Netscape window to a text file and then ran grep a few times on that. BTW. Some newsgroups have the policy not to publish such information, because it usually "encourages" people to post more ("Gee, did he really post that many messages? And I only posted three.

Some general SLEEPON remarks may help: Use SLEEPON only with programs urgently needing it. As far as I know, this is only Windows and Word >=3D Ver.5 SoftwareCarousel does not need SLEEPON. But if you run Windows in a SC work area, Windows needs SLEEPON in this SC work area. For example, if you run Word in a SC work area, you can task switch without SLEEPON. Word only needs SLEEPON for light sleep, not for keyboard support. Never install SLEEPON in your autoexec.bat. Use it only for the time, your critical program is running, as I described in the DOC. Don't install SLEEPON prior to SC.

To start doing backups it depends what you want to do: A macro is useless to start a program like say PKZIP to zip a list of files as a backup.

What an understatement. It is my understanding that over a million machines were sold (95,100,200,700,1000,and omnigo 100/120), but we know of maybe 30,000-40,000 of them among all the mailing lists around (PTP, dealers, others). > There's lots of palmtoppers out there who probably don't even realise > that they can download cool software off the internet for free. > Movie players.

Yeah, 32MB only to those who can justify it, shocking indeed. Well, I am sure the list WILL change and a lot, and fast once lots of newbies come aboard the newsgroup and find out about this place. But that is not necessarily bad. I wonder what is the capacity of this list, perhaps it would be good to increase the ranks here as a project for each of us over the next 6 months, then let's see what we have and if this is reaching more people and growing. I would be willing to send an email to each of our customers to explain briefly about this list, and how to sign on. I am sure customers will gain from this. If each of us told everyone who knows about this list, we could grow here quite a bit.

LOL! Someone promoted as a prank a fantastic compression scheme. It took a 2mb file and made it 65 bytes or so, and also it would compress and decompressed almost instantly! Fantastic. Turns out he copied the file to another location and gave it name. That name was in the 65 bytes. *decompression" was just moving the hapless file from the other location, and renaming it. Good prank. Several people were fooled.

Something's been said before about the charging circuit's proximity to the display controller or something like that...and the heat generated by the charging affects the contrast. For some people it gets dark, but for most (including me) it gets light...I just darken (On +) the screen and when charging is done, I lighten (On -). - Longden -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 18 Mar 1998 08:42:37 EST Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "Daniel Z.

MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=US-ASCII Several weeks ago, I purchased a copy of Borland's Sprint Wordprocessor. Sprint, a ten-year old product, is really an awesome word-processor. What makes Sprint unique is that it is designed as a "modular" application: the editing and formatting/printing fuctions are totally separate. This means that the text on the screen fits your screen, no matter how small a font you are using for printing. The formatting of the text for a particular printer is done at the time of printing. The editor is also highly configurable, has a powerful macro language, and allows you to create and edit your own printer and screen drivers. I wonder if anyone else on this list uses Sprint? If so, can you tell me how to configure the editor for the 64x18 screen display of the 200LX. Thanks.

From DOS, use the command mono8025 or "mode bw80", or toggle the screen zoom (Fn spacebar) till you get to the 80x25 display mode. There are a couple of other ways too...but that's why this is THE LX. Unless of course you WANT to run in the 64x18 screen mode...in which case, sorry, I haven't a clue. - Longden -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 18 Mar 1998 06:11:55 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "Longden C.

I do nightly backups using an appointment to start a macro that closes all apps first (to make sure databases are written to disk before backup). The last thing the macro does is to start an app from the AppMgr screen which hits a batch file running under MaxDOS (to maximize memory and otherwise work uninterrupted), which does a massive pkzip of files...whew!

My setup is based on a post from Amanda Walker a while ago. I'll see if I can dig up the post and send it to you directly. Here are a few more details: - I'm using JAM to compress 7M of my 10M flashcard. - My SC pool takes up much of the uncompressed portion of my flash. The rest is used for things that are just too slow with the Jammed drive. - My startup files are all on my flash card (A:) config.sys - loads emm driver, loads JAM driver, mounts jam drives, swaps C: (internal) with F: (first JAM drive) using 'jswap' (included with JAM) autoexec.bat - among other things, has a pause in it that allows me to exit before SC and the System Manager is loaded, if necessary - The first time I booted with this setup, I exited from autoexec.bat and moved F:_DAT (internal mem) to C: (Jammed drive). This allows me to run System Manager running from the Jammed drive. I also created an EMM file on the flash, but this required swapping the F: and C: drive back to normal, and then creating the file. The emm200 program only seems to be able to create files on C: (not surprisingly). Add the emm driver to config.sys, and it still is used after it is swapped to F: So in the end, my A: drive is the uncompressed flash, C: is the Jammed drive, and F: is the internal memory. One bonus of this setup is that I have _no_ data on the internal drive, so my system is virtually immune to data loss from battery failure. Downside it is is kinda slow. I have one full sized SC area for the System Manager, one full sized area for Agenda (using 250K expanded memory), and a few smaller areas for other programs that require less memory. It takes maybe 8-10 seconds to swap between SC sessions (my flashcard is s..l..o..w..). If you want more details I'll be glad to send you my config.sys and autoexec.bat. -Brian -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 18 Mar 1998 10:09:32 -0500 Reply-To: briang@writeme.com Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Brian Girling Organization: Great Canadian Holidays Inc.

Every time some topic is completed, let's make it obligation to our little community, for the person that asked the question and gathered all the answers, to make a little FAQ file on that topic. So next time somebody asks the same question we can point them to the FAQ file, and for everybody to have some technical reference. I think that would be nice, and would leave some kind of meaningful trace of this community. I know there are some personal pages out there with some stuff, but nothing "official"!

If this note is inappropriate for this list, just let me know (I know that there aren't too many folks who are shy on this list!). Under an OEM agreement, SanDisk will supply MMCs (MutliMediaCard) to Nokia for the new Nokia 9110 Communicator, a combination mobile phone and handheld PC designed for the GSM 900 market. The announcement was made at the annual CeBIT trade show in Hannover, Germany where SanDisk is exhibiting products (Hall 13, Stand C35). The MMC, about the size of a postage stamp, is the world's smallest removable data storage card and was designed to meet the unique requirements of the portable communications and computing markets. With broad industry support by leading telecommunications firms including Ericsson, Motorola, Nokia, QUALCOMM and Siemens PN, MMC is the de-facto industry-standard for removable storage in mobile telecommunications products. By employing the MMC, the Nokia 9110 Communicator will be able to store, for example, e-mails, faxes, sounds and audio, travel guides, dictionaries, still images, application software, large telephone directories and numerous documents on the MMC. SanDisk manufactures MMC in capacities of 2, 4, and 8MB. A 4MB MMC will be sold under the Nokia brand name and through Nokia sales channels. -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 18 Mar 1998 14:14:55 -0600 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Wayne LaBelle Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Wayne LaBelle Subject: HV w/o WWW/LX MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Is there a way a to view internet site with HV without WWW/LX?

The trouble is that the program has a copy protection scheme that requires you to have the original startup disk in order to initiate the game. Besides the fact that the disk are 5.25" (working, in-use drives for which are tough enough to find these days), I'd rather not have to carry around the disk in case I wish to play the game. This is for my own use and I will not be making copies available. The game is Space M*A*X from Final Frontier Software (c) 1986. It is a simulation about building a working space station, with constraints of time, money, safety, etc... using the space shuttle. There was a hardcopy manual of about 90 pages (estimating from memory - it's not right here in front of me) that was packed with information, which is very useful in playing the game. Anyway, if someone could point me to information or (better yet) software that circumvents the old copy protection scheme so that I can make a copy of this program, I would appreciate it. Thank you, Rus _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" I think a couple of neat programs for the LX would be: 1) a program that, in a single key-combo, toggles the numeric keyboard into a NON numlock keypad with arrows, home, pgup .... Possibly a sysman program, or a tsr? 2) a Units Calc EXM program that works like the built in calc and does conversions like the 48GX calculator, in that it can take any combo of units in a string and a base number and convert to any other string of units. I can see how the function labels would work like those on the 48. I am not that good a programmer. Who could help with the first, at least? The last would take some good programming. ---- http://comports.com/hplx <--old stuff is new... ------------------------ "No guts, no gorey." --Stephen Kings -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 18 Mar 1998 16:45:28 -0500 Reply-To: briang@writeme.com Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Brian Girling Organization: Great Canadian Holidays Inc.

The circuitry warms up, and the sensor for temperature on the palmtop is nearby, so it is fooled to think there is a lot of sun (higher temperature) and so it changes the lcd orientation to reflect that.

I've used pcANYWHERE for DOS on the 200LX to remotely control a desktop and do file transfers. It works fine, but of course the speed depends on your modem.

CE 2.0 is a big improvement over 1.0. Maybe when 3.0 comes out they'll get it right. They still don't have a simple search function like the 3Com has for its Pilots. Of course Pilot users constantly complain that the graffiti recognition feature seems to degrade with age (probably a problem with the touch screen). Psion Series 5 is much improved in its database and address functions allowing you to search in all fields with some decent speed. For those of us you use Info Select, the new Psion isn't that bad an alternative (however they still have ignored adding serious financial and solving functions to the calculator). 2) New power technology that could dramatically increase the hours that high drain devices (like cellular phones, laptops, subnotebooks, ect) is miniature fuel cell technology. The technology could mean a portable fuel cell that could drive a cellular phone for 100 hours vs the standard 1-2 hours with conventional batteries at just half the weight of standard batteries. Just imagine a Toshiba Libretto with that kind of power life. Imagine how this kind of power life could create even smaller devices. Check out http://www.quad-net.com/archive/CELL1-26LANL 3) LEPs (light-emitting polymers) promise plastic screens that take up less power than TFTs or back-lighted LCD screens. In addition to taking less power they are also flexible (just imagine no screen to break). Also the technology is brighter and is viewable from any angle. The technology is still five years away from being used widely. Check out: http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/content/reut/0216/285255.html In other words 3-5 years from now when our HP's break down I think you'll be able to buy the next generation of the Toshiba Libretto, that runs Windows 2001 and can be powered 50-100 hours with no problem. With a more powerful energy technology I bet the next form factor will be similar to today's portable CD player but with what then be then recordable DVD technology. So I wouldn't worry about the future of our palmtops. Just hold onto our HP's and wait for technology to give us what is on our desktops with us all the time. === Dave Hart (hartd@poboxes.com) Beavercreek (Dayton), OH USA Join the effort to bring Catholic Radio to the Miami Valley Miami Valley Catholic Radio Pillar of Fire, Pillar of Truth _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

Not a bad thing to have a hopeful outlook. Now, in my opinion, the very reason we (I, and as it seems, many others) are upset about the current CE "thing" is that Microsoft and the other companies involved are trying to "close out" the non-GUI OS world. What I need in the year 2001 is a device that will run _all_ the software I am using _now_ and provide better operator interaction than Microsoft Weirdness. A GUI interface is just fine when you have time for it, when you have work to do, you don't want bells and whistles, you want tools and results.

Boy if you only had a flash card, I'd recommend the special version of 1st Reader I have that installs to drive A instead of drive C that's on my site at www.airpower.com/dl1.htm, but it just won't fit in your situation. Another possiblilty though is to use an Internet connected BBS and the freeware QWK reader SLMR which is considerably smaller than 1st Reader. You can DL that too from www.airpower.com/dl1.htm.

Actually, there are versions of pine that run on DOS (as well as W95 and XWindows). This may be what he's referring to. Of course, not all ISP's provided shell accounts and not all users like to read their mail remotely.

I must be missing something... Have you ever run pine or a text editor over a modem connect? It can be cumbersome when you're trying to scroll down to a certain point in a file or backspace a work or move to the middle of a line by hitting the key a dozen or so times then waiting for the remote machine to get them all and then see if you have to hit it more or if you've overshot, etc... unless you have a fast connection is it much nicer to do things locally. Of course, there is a certain benifit in using pine and being able to access all your mail (both old and new) from anywhere in the world, even if you don't have your palmtop with you.

Chris: Yes, I have /do. I avoid the kinds of problems you describe by setting up my .elmrc file to specify vi as my default message editor/viewer.

For the longest time I used a combination of Datacomm and Pine or Elm for reading mail, but the downside was that I had to be online to do so. I then graduated to Qualx. That was quite an adventure, I had to install uqwk on my isp's unix server (I learned a lot about unix doing this). Qualx worked very well for me and I still have it on my HP and occasionally use it if I'm logged onto my shell account and want to grab some mail. The disadvantage was that Qualx doesn't allow for signature files and Qualx disables the address book function of cc:Mail, but it is a feasible set-up if you have access to a shell account. During the Qualx period of palmtopping I got a bit more ambitious and started fooling around with packet drivers and got a couple of the various DOS PPP email programs to work on my palmtop. At this time I had not won my nifty speed upgrade from a Mack Bagette via a contest on David Sargeant's web site and I only had 2MB on my 200LX (I now have 8MB and a my speed had been doubled). The DOS PPP email programs were quite large and I just couldn't spare the memory 'real estate' they took on my c: drive. It's no fun to have a PPP DOS email program if you don't have enough RAM left over in which to download messages. The lack of RAM space led to me deleting the PPP set-up and go back to Pine and Qualx. Sometime last year I met another person via the internet who also was interested in developing a ppp capable email program, he was even kind enough to let me look at some of the screens he had in mind, even though nothing was really functional at the time. Some time passed and one day I got an email message that was asking me if I still had my HP and if I was still looking for an email solution. I had to respond with a great big "Yes!". Once again, I was introduced to the same program, some things had changed, but best of all it was now functional! I volunteered to be an aplha tester of the software and began my duties as such. after about a month to a month and a half of testing, emailing files, ftping files and a couple of cross country long distance telephone calls, the software, 'Goin Postal, has gone from and alpha version to the latest version 1.0 beta. The software has been performing flawlessly for me and I believe is reaching a point where it will be realeased to the palmtop community as a shareware program. Set up of the software is a breeze, it supports multiple mailhosts, does signature files, will let you shell out to DOS while keeping a packet driver loaded so you can do other nifty things like IRC, FTP, Telnet, etc.. and best of all it's small. It was designed to operate on a 1MB 100LX, so those who have not upgraded to a 200LX won't be left 'out in the rain'. Those people here on the list who are still looking for an email solution will have another option for sending and receiving mail in the near future. It was the answer I was looking for and hopefully once available to the palmtop community will also be the answer for others. I'm not a paid employee of the author of 'Goin Postal, but I'm an happy alpha/beta tester who simply wanted to share his email views and experiences with the list. Happy palmtopping!!!

The real printed version will be a registration perk. I'm trying to get a cost on the printed manual, I know what I want but am not sure if it can be done economically. While waiting to hear from the printer I checked out binding machines tonight -ouch-. Maybe a used office supply house? 2. Determine a final registration price and write up a registration form. 3. Set up a web page to help support it. This won't be a big deal, I just activated my free page at AT&T tonight. 4. Need to find the author of RED.COM which I use for the default editor.

However once in a while, someone will bring up something that changes my life in a small or big'ish way. That something is definitely worth waiting for. Apart from the fact that I have yet to see a newsgroup that was not a complete waste of time, I cannot see that one on the LX would fare any better. There are a lot of very knowledgeable people here and if you ask the right questions or wait for one of them to get the golden inspiration, you will get your pound of flesh out of this list.

Let me ad my $0.02 worth.... I tried several different combos and got good support from list members (thanks Jeff), but I never got a ppp dialer to work with my ISP as they do not speak DOS (or Amiga, 640xx mac........). So, I jumped at the chance to try palmtop.com thanks to Martin Paul's generous offer and have been happy. Dial in has been painless and is all done in under a minute. Yes, I know it's not dialling into your isp but: 1) It uses no memory beyond the message directory. 2) You don't have to pay for it (you already have :) My ISP offers mail fowarding free, so theorectically I'll be able to get my mail on the road by dialing a long distance # via MCI for .05 to .10 a minute instead of the .12 a minute that my ISP wants for their "toll free" number. As an aside, let me urge you to get a memory card anyway possible even if you sell the card modem to do so. I'm now running with a memory card full time and connect with a Cardinal 14.4 external I picked up new for $25. I was supposedly buying a Megahertz pocket modem from a list member but he ducked out on me (thanks John!). For now, I'll use AC. Take this all for what it's worth, but it's worked for me.

In all that Microsoft bashing, we have to remember that Microsoft didn't *invent* GUI! But it happens that it has the best one, so far. I used Win95, NT, MacOS, SGI IRIX, Sun Solaris (with at least 3 different GUIs), NextStep, and 10 variations of Linux/BSD GUIs in the last couple of years, I am yet to find something that I can say it's better and more complete than NT4!!!

If so. just unpack everything--the edict file, edic.jdx, kanji files, etc, in a dir namely kanji. In you path in sys mgr. have the line: a:\kanji\jdic.exe -v -f -b16|250. Within the same program you can also have a kanji reader in sys mgr. Add another app in you sys mgr path such as: a:\kanji\jrbat.bat| and you can basically read any Japanese text with kanji\kana lookup. By the way, it's all freeware and updated somewhat often.

Do you >realize just how off topic this is? This is a list for HP PALMTOP >COMPUTERS, please take you holy wars outside. Sorry if I started something here. Just as you don't like people babbling about something you don't wanna read, I don't like seeing some "smart" thoughts over and over again. And from people who have Windoze on their desktop!!! Put your mouth where your mouse is! Stick to whatever you're using and leave others alone. I used *many* different OSes over the years including Mac and many X-windows variants, and never said anything about it, even though, I still think they are pretty crappy. It's just that this trend is *so* in, that people can't stop and think about it for a moment. And even on 200LX list, that's suppose to have nothing to do with that! What monopoly? Can you go out and buy Mac, Sun, SGI, HPUX, AIX??? Microsoft created Windows platform, it's theirs!!! Now that they've seceded, everyone wants a piece of cake! How many third party companies are making stuff for SGI? Those guys are far more monopolistic than MS! Now, back to the topic. I red really fine thought in PC Magazine (or was it PC Computing), about the future of PC/Windows/GUI. Author said that best thing Microsoft could do is to isolate kernel from GUI, and concentrate on kernel, leaving GUI to GUI gurus (like Kai Kraus & Co.) Number one on my wish list is OS with NT's kernel and StarTrek's GUI. That would be a treat! Now is it to SFish to ask for that in small (palmtop) packiging, let's say as a 2001 NewYear's present? And sorry if I offended somebody. It's Friday anyway !!!

There has never been ANY hassle with customs anywhere. One thing you may have to do is use ATX3 in your init string as your modem may not recognise UK dialtone. X3 tells the modem to dial without detecting dialtone. UK connector may need to be wired by you. To that end a cord with bell connector and bare wires the other might be handy to take.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hi all, Somehow, in one particular spreadsheet of mine, CALC mode got turned on, as indicated by the presence of the word "CALC" at the bottom of the screen. I can't make it go away, and if that wasn't enough, some of my formulas are returning *incorrect results*. I assume it may be related to CALC being turned on, since I've never seen incorrect results being returned before. Can someone help? Thanks.

Comments: To: rhemery@POWERUP.COM.AU Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Russel, you ask, I asked a couple of weeks ago if anyone with a 32meg has it stacked/Jammed. Has anyone ACTUALLY tried it? If you are contemplating a purchase (however remotely), drop Mack a line at: mack@times2tech.com I expect that he can help. From personal experience, I know that stacker 4.0 slows down flash card reads and writes "substantially." For most things, even a 3 or 4 times slow down makes little difference, and I remember the stacker differences as being in that range. There was a thread on speed testing flash cards which might interest you. On my double speed, 6M HP, I currently use stacker for all but one of my cards. For On Line Bible files, disc compression is counter productive, so I don't use it on my Bible card. I seldom notice a time lag. Writing large files to disk may take a few seconds, but it takes time to boot and close my desk computer, too. I'm sending a 200LX to Mack on Monday for the 32M fix. I expect that to be the end of Stacker for me. I will switch to Zipping seldom used text files, but leaving the binaries and day to day files full size on either the 32M onboard drive, or a newly un-stack'd card. cordially, lynn m. cavendish -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 21 Mar 1998 21:36:23 EST Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Cavendishl Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Cavendishl Subject: Re: Lotus Agenda: which version for Palmtop?

Hi Kiru- 1 The HP System Manager only allows about 90K for DOS programs, unless you either change this in SETUP or add the "pipe" symbol (Ýshift¨\) to the end of the path entry in the AppMgr "add application" screen.

What you need to do is update all the device drivers (by deleting them and letting W95 autodetect and reinstall - maybe with the help of your driver disks). I thought I'd done that. But the system was flaky. Pgms that used to run in a windowed DOS box required full screen to not lock up, etc. ...... The registry clean program said a device driver wasn't working properly and quit. After much net cruising and hair pulling I got this: Go into Control Panel, System, Device manager. If you see any little yellow diamonds with a ! , (excalamation point), something is wrong and you need to reinstall the device driver.

I'd like to use RED.COM which works very well but so far I can't locate it outside of Net-Tamer and no word from them if it's redistributable or not. I've found EZEDIT but I'm not as happy with it. The TED series can't be used as PC Mag owns it. Anyone know of a public domain DOS editor under 10k? Several web searches turned up mostly big or copyrighted stuff. It doesn't need any fancy features, just bare-bones text editing as small as possible. If anyone knows more about the RED.COM editor this would be my choice.

The transactions are "combined" into one transaction, they call an "adjustment". Effectively you get to use the palmtop as a data collection device and the desktop becomes the main repository for your Quicken activities.

Assuming the modem has low-enough power requirements to be used in the palmtop, you should just need d:\bin\cic100 /gen 1 in your AUTOEXEC.BAT to get the modem to work.

I have made what I hope is a better long-term repair, though I warn you that it isn't pretty. I took an old AOL disk and removed the shutter. With a pair of tin snips I made two 1" by .25" strips. The first I glued over the crack on the top of the case; the second I attached to the side of the lid, continuing from the center of the hinge plate up along the lid (note that these are not at quite the same height, so I had to bend the strip a little). I think that this will redistribute some of the stress of openning and closing from the top to a wider section of the machine, hopefully improving the overall lifespan. The only drawback (besides painfully supergluing my fingers to my HPLX) is the sight of the silver plates... But then, LittleGuy has been through much... -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 23 Mar 1998 18:49:24 EST Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Cavendishl Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Cavendishl Subject: Re: Small PD DOS editor?

I think the '3D' was mentioned a few weeks back as a quirk of some email handlers in dealing with equal signs.

The MagicRAM cards may suffer from the same problem as the Pretec cards, namely, they function EXTREMELY slowly (on the order of 220 seconds to copy 1MB) unless a key is held down. In either case, go with the Simple Tech or Viking card. They're faster and offer higher quality. The Viking card should use less power. Any such care may require the ACECARD driver to be used in the 100LX, but I can't say for certain. -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 24 Mar 1998 11:22:54 -0700 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , HELMUT_GROSSINGER@HP-COLSPRINGS-OM1.OM.HP.COM Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Helmut Grossinger Subject: Re: HPLX: Hinge crack fix, or new use for old AOL disk Comments: To: lloo@WORLD.NORTHGRUM.COM In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi!

I compiled the results for the speed tests. Most, if not all, were turned in by 200LX users, so I can't say much about drivers being needed on the 100LX.

Have not figured out what to try next. That's sad news indeed. I used a cyanoacrylate type superglue (as I told Helmut, I'll report on the brand name later), which is like water and bonds very fast (in seconds or minutes). Postings several months back seemed to indicate there were different "thicknesses" or viscosity for this type of glue, with the most varieties being available at special hobby stores, where people apparently use them for jobs requiring thick to thin consistencies. Mine was thin enough and slow drying enough that I was able to apply a thin bead on the crack and work some of it into the crack with a pin. Then I opened the lid and braced it in such a way as to close the crack and left it that way for several hours. Still, with only six months of heavy use, I may not be far behind you in seeing a recurrence. I imagine a 2nd application of either types of glue would be iffy, given the glue residue already on the crack. Maybe Mack should design a metal reinforcement trim and add that to the cost of the memory upgrades? All we need now are the Mag wheels . - Longden -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 24 Mar 1998 14:45:20 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Nedim Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Nedim Subject: Re: A good message of hope for HP palmtop users Comments: To: sponsor@ftel.net In-Reply-To: <199803241856.KAA10144@ftel.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable At 01:56 PM 3/24/98, you wrote: >Nedim,=20 > >> I would be grateful if somebody would enlighten me!

Have you had experience with this type of adaptor? What should I look for? By readily available, do you mean 'large centres' or should I be able to get an adaptor almost anywhere? All of our local Radio Shacks seem to be out of stock of their apadtors for the UK. Or should I be more diligent and get one before leaving this side of the pond? Another suggestion that I've read is to take a phone cord with plug on one end and loose wires on the other and make my own from a phone cord and UK plug set purchased there.

Comments: To: bici@MAILEXCITE.COM Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit In a message dated 98-03-24 12:13:55 EST, you write: << Can anyone advise me a way to transfer lotus .wk1 files to database format like .gdb? >> Sure. There are three steps to the process. First design your target data base. 4-7 and following of the manual is pretty good at explaining that. Second, you have to get the data out of the .wk1 file. If you have a newer version of Excel, quatropro, or lotus that will allow you to save as a csv (comma seperated variable) file, open your .wk1 in that and save as a .csv file. You are 33% there. If you don't, you will have to print to file & edit out unwanted spaces and in commas. This may be easy or tough, depending on your data. Third, you have to get your data into the data base. A program like gbdbload (which I use, and which is - I think - available on super will do that. Since I don't know you or your data, I don't know if that is enough info or not. Take a look at the manual, fund the program & read the documentation, and if you have more questions, e-mail me off the list & I'll be happy to help with specific problems. I have had good success doing this myself. cordially, lynn m. cavendish cavendishl@aol.com -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 25 Mar 1998 11:23:24 +0000 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Al Sender: HPLX Mailing List Comments: Authenticated sender is From: Al Subject: wanted Caroussel MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Ok, Now I have 5Mg on my C drive.

Something like a DOS app that asks for a password, decrypts the NoteTaker database, fires up NoteTaker, and then re-encrypts the database when NoteTaker exits would fit the bill. Or am I being silly for sticking with NoteTaker? Are there better programs for the purpose out there? I have only about 150 small notes, so ease of use and security are more important to me than full database functionality and blazing speed.

Rechargeables of any type have a higher peak output level than alkalines do.

I downloaded Goin' Postal last night and am going to give that a shot. One thing is kind of puzzling me. Looking at the memory allocation (in Setup) on my machine, the system RAM takes up 636 KB and the RAM disk is left with only 352 KB. When I look at my C drive in filer, it says I have used up all but 82 KB and this leaves not even enough room to try out this application. When I look at the files under the D drive in Filer, it looks like the files in the root directory combined with the files in the BIN, DOS, _DAT, and _SYS directories take up a combined total of 891 KB. Also, all my files in the C drive take up 249 KB of space. Why wouldn't the amount of memory used in the D drive correspond to the 636 KB of system RAM shown in setup? And why does filer tell me I only have 82 KB free on my C drive? Seems like it should be the difference between 352 KB and 249 KB which is 103 KB. Also, how many of the files in the D drive can you delete? It looks like a lot of them are help files and the like. I know these are pretty fundamental questions, but I would appreciate any guidance anyone cares to offer. Thanks. -- Tom Lange -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 25 Mar 1998 08:33:26 -0800 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , "Longden C.

You can't delete anything off it, but then neither do those files take away from your RAM allocation of 1mb, which are affected solely by the system RAM use (your 636kb) and C drive use (249kb). The difference you spoke of (103kb theoretical vs 82kb actual remaining free space) is due to the slack space in file allocation clusters. Most C drives have a cluster size of 512 bytes, which means any file that is an even multiple of 512 will efficiently use disk space, otherwise there is a small amount of space usually remaining (called slack) and that adds up to the discrepancy. Filer and other apps report the logical file sizes (ie, a.txt = 403 bytes, tho actual disk usage would be 512 bytes...and this difference is not noted by dir nor Filer). - Longden -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 25 Mar 1998 11:37:47 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , mdstockr Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: mdstockr Subject: Re: memory allocation Comments: To: Thomas Lange Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=us-ascii Keep in mind that D: drive is ROM.

You need to know a bout ISO representation of letters. When You use a character set that doen not acknowledge the rest of the world (e.g. Microsoft's character sets believe there is not such thing as foreign languages etc...) the symbols in that character set are transleated. hexadecimal 3d happens to be the value of the symbol '=3D' equal sign. When the email packages look at this crap coming from the wordprocessors they attempt to make sure you get the info, at all costs. So they translate in the body of the message the appearance of an equal sign to the heaxdecimal representation following an equal sign. So it is a bit odd but you get a=3Db to look like a=3D3Db but the equal sign is not the original, it is part of the construct "=3Dhh" which represents the symbol. Avi M.

The Simple Tech cards seem to me to perform about twice as fast when adjusted for palmtop speed (i.e. double speed will naturally perform faster than single). The Simple Tech card is LIGHTNING fast, trust me. Much faster than a Sandisk and exponentially faster than a non-key-held-down Pretec card (although the 128MB card seems to be faster.) > Another thing which I dont understand is the current requirement for > PowerSaving Read and Performance Read in the Simple Tech specs.

I've used them both, and the Simple Tech card does seem to draw a lot of power on insertion (not as much as a modem, or network card, of course, but more than my other flash card) but then, once in, it mellows out and the power usage goes down.

I'd have to recommend Simple, if only for the performance gain. Simple was the first to offer a 40MB card for under $300, too, so it might be worth looking into a larger card than 16... -- Visit the 200LX site at http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 25 Mar 1998 17:34:56 -0500 Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Quinton Jones Jr Subject: Re: JAM MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable On Wed, 25 Mar 1998 16:50:58, Tony D.

My timed results (for the posted *.bat file) on my 100 LX are not as good as those reported on the list; the card test averages about 10.2 secs for the c: drive and about 10.3 for the unstacked 40 mb a: drive. Each was measured twice and averaged (which I know is not enough for a t-test, ...). To me, this says the SimpleTech card is about as fast as the internal ram (on-board).

Hi Bob, This is how I have keystuff setup for Mileage.wk1. I created a batch file called mileage.bat Add the following line to Mileage.bat: ks.com \&\mfr\emileage.wk1/\Z System manager: Name: MG&G Path: a:\data\mileage.bat Note: To get the icon to show I used ks.com first, and then changed= the path to the above.

Cordially, lynn m. cavendish Hello Lynn, thanks for your reaction. As a matter of fact I have been experimenting with closing, terminating and exiting (not shelling out, however) applications in SysMgr all of yesterday evening. I am trying to find out what is happening. As a matter of fact I have noted that problems with HP Alarm (and with Alarm Watchdog for that matter) arise only when my palmtop is switched off or terminates all programs and switches to DOS _in SOME instances_. Using tasklist and terminating, Watchdog will give me the first alarm set; but not always! Using MENU F T in the AppMgr, pressing the OK button will terminate all programs; but not always and in that case my palmtop hangs! So there is a problem totally _unrelated_ to HP Alarm Clock. In one way or another (and I still can't see the logic in it) something happens to the palmtop that makes it react differently to the same commands. As stated before, I did not discover any such anomalities with Buddy unloaded, but perhaps I'm wrong here. Well, does or did anyone out there experience this problem?

I think you may have trouble with Bell standard signalling if you try to use it in the UK (and it's illegal to do so - I think they worry that it may send the wrong volts to the exchange and fry their kit). I suspect it is not an issue now, as lots of travellers use US-purchased modems over here with no changes. But then down in Cornwall they just might have an exchange that minds...it is a long way from the 20th century. And there *are* good beers there.

This pops up a text menu of your exm and dos progs and macros and can be configured easily in memo and is as far as i have taken it, virtually unlimited in the number of programs one can add. BTW, i have just got Quikmenu III working in my palmtop. It took the marvelous sleepon by Stefan Peichl to make it worthwhile, as Quikmenu reverses the screen every time it comes back. Quikmenu is dos based, and allows about 895 apps to be added to graphical pages with buttons and alternatively icons. One can add menu files so you are not limited to 895, just load another file! The best thing about Quikmenu is it will launch programs with arguments and also do key stuffing. It has a macro language built-in as well as a Phone database, dialer, calender, calculator, screen saver, text viewer & editor, file manager, a logging setup to tell you how many hours you spend in what app and many other neat things. A really well written program. When i launch the LX sysmanager from Quikmenu, i have 475k free in the appmanager display. As it is shareware, i may post it to Super after i get the setup sorted, you need a string in the autoexec.bat specifying the commspec and of course sleepon, and you need to modify the batch file to run the program, but it is within reason, with the help files and docs removed, it is about 750k, not too bad for the functionality...

One obstacle I thought of was that the IR port is on the side, and if the IR port was facing the keyboard then you wouldn't be able to read the screen, which would be facing to your left.

I guess if you write the program to use the Red Eye protocol side of the palmtop's IO stuff, then the UART would be free to talk to the serial port. As I understand it, the UART, Redeye, and something else (failing memory) can be switched to the IR sub-assembly to support what ever communications might be going on. As to the palmtop IR port being at right angles to the keyboard, I found that almost anything short of charcoal will reflect enough IR for the port to "see" the keyboard. Also, the keyboard has two "power" settings, one for the usual 3-4 feet of the desktop area (great battery life) and one for long distance use, like walking around a classroom (50 feet or so, crappy battery life).

The only reason I can think of to get rid of Stacker (aside from the speed advantage-- which presumably if you're going to install Stacker you've decided to accept) is that a Windows 95 laptop (or desktop with a PC Card reader) won't be able to recognize it.

I have intentionally held off on purchasing the Newton Keyboard because I think there must be a way to put to use all those unused PC keyboards that are destined for the garbage can. Call me a packrat if you want. Additionally, I spend so much time away from my office, this is one way that I can refine and stay tuned up with my touch-typing skills, (or the lack thereof). I may be wrong, but I tend to feel there are a lot of folks out there that would appreciate your efforts. Go for it. Sincerely, Ken Moore --------------------Stacy wrote------------ Hello, I am the person that said would take over the pc keyboard project. I would like to know how much interest there is in this project. What I envision is a small black box with ps/2 connector and db9 connector. The cable for the hp200lx would connect to the PC would plug into the db9 and the keyboard (blah, blah) Power would possibly come from the db9 connect (hp) or from batteries or a seperate power supply. The application keys could be mapped to the function keys with an alt key down, and the menu key could be the windows 95 menu key or some other key. The tsr program would actually perform the keyboard mapping function. Anyway, please let me know what you think. This is in the design phase, and I won't really get to build a prototype for a month or so. --Stacy -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 28 Mar 1998 12:09:29 PST Reply-To: HPLX Mailing List , Marshall Erling Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Marshall Erling Subject: garlic cannot fix my appt book file Content-Type: text/plain is there a program that can un-corrupt my appt book file?

(I tried finding my manual and could not locate it, and searched the archives of the list, so if this is covered elsewhere...sorry!) I can dial up with WWW/LX to the ISP (CServe) and it connects fine. I wanted to use CSERVE to send mail from its SMTP server as I did for two weeks last summer while in Israel. I tried going into READER.EXE, and hit "Online (F5)" to send email and nothing happens. No dialing, no dialtone, nothing. Post/LX appears to start working, there is some screen activity, but no connection activity. I changed the parameters in WWWSETUP so that READER, rather than HV, became the default application to launch. I was able to dial in to CServe, conect, launch READER and send a message (at least I think it was sent. I haven"t received it yet in my mailbox to be sure). Anyone have any ideas what I should be checking to make this work? Also, if one dials in with WWWW/LX and sets either the browser or the READER as the default, is there a way to switch to the other program without having the connection broken and having to redial in.

The ability to run things like Agenda, Word 5.0, or the American Heritage Electronic Dictionary directly from the super fast C: drive changes the nature of the machine. Using the speedtest batch file that has been discussed, my 6 meg LX took ~4 seconds to do the writes. A SRAM card took about 5 sec. This new machine will consistently do it in 2.8! I have had the AHED for quite a while, but could never quite make it practical. Even with 2x speed, it was pretty slow on a flash card -- not to mention the time to switch flash cards. Now, its a breeze. Agenda is similarly speeded up. Quatropro 5.0 is another program that is much quicker. I can recommend this modification without qualification to anyone who can justify the price of the work. For me, it is absolutely worth it. I know that you can get more megabites for the buck with flash cards, but the speed here is really impressive. Besides, I now have plenty of left over space on my existing cards for back-ups, e-texts, and the like. Since I have now wished Stacker a fond farewell, I also speed up those cards quite a bit. This may not do everything that my HP260LX post hoped for, but it is a major step in the right direction. As you know, I have no connection with Times2Tech, other than being an extremely satisfied customer.

I guess I didn't understand you fully. But I dont know whether you want to use the 200LX as the primary PC. Actually, we sync the 200LX with the PC right ??.

Now I'm not suggesting that a database of all the commands would be useless, in fact I think such a database could be built using a macro, one of the DOS to clipboard programs, and a little "peeking" at the command.com file. The command.com file would let you "see" all the internal commands, and a list of the external commands would be easy to get by looking in the d:\dos directory. Other external commands would have to be imported from a full DOS 5 disk set. I'm going to play around with this, if it results in something useful, I'll broadcast it to the list.

Don't know if the reply has been sent in full yet (only get the digest), but I recently did this as follows. Using a hex editor, change the 01 4 bytes before the start of the name of the program to 00. This then allows the program to be deleted. However, after doing this and trying to add more programs to Sysman, I find that the lettering in the Add screen gets screwed up and I cannot add any more anyway. So, I suspect the fundamental limit is not how many total you can have in the basic Sysman menu, but how many you can add on top of the built-in functions. There are alternatives, such as MoreExm or DOS menu managers such as HDM (both available from SUPER I believe). David Bird P.S.

If you haven't tried World Travel before, here is the blurb from the SUPER page: If you travel a lot, or if you just like maps, World Travel is the program for you. World Travel presents a completely new view of the palmtop's built-in database of 478 cities. You can perform graphical map operations like plotting cities on a map, plotting great circle routes between cities, and finding cities along a route. There is also a trip distance calculator that allows you to compute travel distances. You can upgrade World Travel with your own custom cities and maps. The new version includes a sunrise/sunset calculator. As the blurb indicates, the biggest addition is the sunrise/sunset calculator (big thanks to Alfred Lee for this addition). Other improvements include a heading indicator, a better UI for moving the cursor, x/y and lat/lon cursor indication, and a few bug fixes. Enjoy!

I thought the only solution is to 1) back all of the data that you would like to keep that is currently on the HP200 2} perform a complete/hard reset of the HP200, erasing all of its data 3) then, upload the data files that were saved from the HP200 before the reset unto the now 'clean' HP200 Before you try my suggestion please wait and see if someone else knows how to de-code/find the existing password.

First, verify that you are in full-duplex mode. From the above comments, I assume you mean you can type on either keyboard and see what you type on the other computer's screen. One other way this kind of error can occur is if the file you are trying to transfer doesn't exist, or it's inaccessible by the sender, *or* can't be opened for writing by the receiver. Another kind of error could be that you're trying to send a long filename from the Amiga side and the 200lx side is rejecting the filename... I guess we need more info on what you've tried.

This will erase all files in C: drive. CAUTION: This will also erase any files you have placed in C: drive, including applications not in ROM.

Here is how I did it. 1.) copy APPMGR.DAT APPMGR.BAK (backup) 2.) start Datacomm (or what you like) and transfer APPMGR.DAT to your desktop. (I do this because I'm using Xtree Gold and it's too big to carry around on my palmtop. Xtree has a HEX editor built-in. You could use Debug, but I'm not that good.) 3.) Using a HEX editor (Xtree) find the first letter of the application you want to remove in the APPMGR.DAT file. (first letter includes & if used as a hot-key "tag") 4.) Count back, using the first letter as Zero, ten(10) characters. (remember, the & counts as a character if it's used to underline (hot key) the first letter of the application title.) NOTE: Depending on the location of the application on your desktop, you should see (in the 11th position) a value (HEX) that corresponds to the location of the application on your desktop. 5.) Starting with the 10th character ( -10 from the first char of the application ) Overtype (replace, not delete) the next 115 chars with 00 HEX (zeros). WARNING: The APPMGR.DAT file _must_ remain the same length! ANOTHER NOTE: You won't have to put zeros in all 115 characters, it looks like only the applications that have notes use the last part of the "slot". 6.) Save the new (edited) APPMGR.DAT file. 7.) Transfer the new APPMGR.DAT file to your palmtop. (put the new file in the c:\_DAT directory) 8.) Re-boot the palmtop. (a re-boot causes the Desktop to re-read the APPMGR.DAT file.) 9.) Open the Desktop (MORE key, you know :) 10.) Look at the location that should have had the application you targeted, it should now have no title and a random icon. 11.) Move the selector box to this "weird" icon and press the delete (DEL) key. 12.) Blink a few times in relief. :) If you could follow my instructions (more likely problems in my typing style) you should now be able to remove any icon / application from the desktop. Please remember to do a backup of the APPMGR.DAT file, and it wouldn't hurt to back-up the entire palmtop as well. Good luck!

I had everything right...almost. I forgot to indent the noenable command in my net.cfg file. All works well and now I can use the 200 as a diagnostic tool on my LAN. I might even get that packet sniffer on SUPER going if all is well. Several people emailed and asked where I got the Silicom card. It came from A Plus Computing at 800-878-1354. Cost was $117 plus shipping about a month ago. I found them by calling Silicom US and asking them for a vendor that stocked the SPE/TP. They were very nice and helpful (and I think the price was right too). They just don't know anything about the 200lx. Thanks again to all for their support, bob -------------------------------------------- ***DO NOT POST BINARY FILES TO THIS LIST*** For Unsubscribe requests, FAQ, & List Archives, see : HTTP://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 31 Mar 1998 17:36:42 -0500 Reply-To: malkajef@orthohelp.com Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Jeff Malka Subject: 32 MB RAM and double speed - wow! Well I now am in heaven. Got my double speed and 32 MB ram combo by Mark Baggette. The only thing to say about it is wow! :-¨ The extra real-estate is wonderful, but I could have gotten that from a larger flashcard. The most impressive thing to me is the speed. The combination of storing and running your software from the C: drive (essentially a super fast ram drive) and the double speed crystal has to be seen to be believed. Where I used to wait patiently, now things just zoom up. Database searches (and I have some large ones) happen in a flash. My advice, get one as soon as you can afford it. It is the most useful addition to you HP LX you can make and Mack is the person for it, both for know-how (his drivers) and great service. Besides he really is a nice guy . Now, one of the advantages of the ram upgrade is the freeing up the PC-card slot for a modem or whatever, but even though I no longer needed my ACE double flash-Plus card for storage, I wanted to see if I could use it as a stacked card for an additional 20MB dis space. Using it unstacked was not more complicated than simply putting the card in the slot, but that way the compressed portions of the card were not visible or accessible. If you booted from the card, they were visible but the 32 MB drivers were not loaded and the 32 MB ram was not available. I wanted to see the stacked portion of the card and the 32 ram. That took a little doing in getting both sets of drivers on the "proper" config.sys files (the config.sys on the unmounted portion of the card). I will soon write up the specific steps on my HP website so other can have an easier job of it. One thing that stumped me for a while was another stupid error I made. After copying my backed up files to my huge C: drive, I got quite concerned when I found that double clicking from within FILER on many of the executable files listed on my c: drive produced an ominous "file does not exist" error message. Oh-oh! Yet these files would run fine from DOS. Turned out I forgot about modifying my filer.ini file which directed these executables to my old PNS200 subdirectory which was located on the stacked portion of my old A: card drive. Editing that filer.ini file solved that problem. Thanks Mack. Great job.

The reason I am selling is that It wouldn't work with the modem / flash card combo I have. Accurite tested it and replaced the first one even though they couldn't find a problem. I guess it is just the combination of parts I was trying to use. Other combinations work fine including mixtures of flash and sram and ATA type III hard drives. See their site at www.accurite.com for more information about specifics. I would like to get $120 plus shipping, that should save someone around $30 or more over new. It doesn't weight much so USPS priority mail should work for about $3.00 anywhere in the US. Pete Peter W.

I noticed that this list is kinda hard to find. I started looking arround, and found that allot of the bigger pages (ie technotes, malka's page, etc...) are also hard to find. Since I am a user of the TI-85 graphing calculator, I started to look at their page, and I had an idea. We need a centrilized page that it easy to find. We need to make out presence known so that those thousands of people out ther who dont know about the existing 100lx community to be able to find it and join it. To this end, I am now starting up a project. Those who feel they want to contribute, e-mail me and we will begin organizing. Thats all I have at this stage. Thank you.

Occupational hazards. MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain This may very well be my last post to this group. I have (had) a 200lx 6meg (thanks, Julie) with MegaHertz2144 (thanks, Ralph) and 16meg Flashcard (thanks, Mark). My serial cable just arrived yesterday (thanks, other Mark) and I had been successfully transferring files recommended through this mailing list from my Amiga to the 200lx (thanks, Amiganauts). Well, I was examining a patient today (a perfectly normal 2-week old baby boy) who saw fit to pee all over me. As I was looking into his ears and not at his aim, I didn't notice that he was urinating until I began to feel wet. He had successfully urinated into my coat pocket, soaking my 200lx/flashcard. I tried to dry it off, but when I turned it on, the speaker started to emit a high-pitched whine. I took out the main batteries, but the whine only became softer and did not stop until I took out the backup battery (so long, C: drive!). Urine is full of electrolytes and is a great (relatively speaking) conductor. After blowdrying the unit out and replacing the batteries, I get the same whine and no screen. No, I haven't backed anything up (the cable just arrived last night). I lost my phone directory, inpatient and outpatient databases, schedules, Harriet Lane formulary (typed-in by hand), medical calculator, and medical databases compiled from a variety of sources. Sigh. Any suggestions? I live in the Los Angeles area, if anyone can suggest a repair shop. I'm not sure if it is possible/worth it to try to salvage this little unit (which I love). Now I'm even more depressed.
