Subject:      www/lx setup help

I'm trying to setup the newgroup part of WWW/lx.  My server requires
authentication.

In the individual group settings I put in the server name, login, and
password.

The response is no permission, or Authentication error.

Any ideas.

Newbie HP200LX owner here
(so excuse lots of dumb ass questions over next
few weeks <grin>)

1. Just bought a second hand 200LX clock doubled
    6Mb model.   What is the best way to check that it
    is clock doubled (Run MSD?).  Also the previous
    owner said that it has a little bat setup file it requires
    because of the 2 x modification which I gather
    displaces the screen a couple of pixels to one side
    What is the history behind this.

2. I using Tranfile for PC to HP transfers.  Is this the
    best program for backing up the data files from the
   built in applications Phone book  / appointments etc
   and if so what are these files called.

I am working my way through the manual, but sometimes
be told goes in better 8-)  so no RTFM statements

Best regards from a cool Western Australia

Subject:      WWW/LX and MAXDOS

Well, I'm still trying to setup WWW/LX to work the way I want.

I set it up to run under system manager and to use memo to compose the
messages.  Which works great, but I have to keep the memory designated to
post/lx to around 375 to do that.  If I keep it that low, the external and
news/lx programs don't run.

So I installed MAXDOS for the first time.  Its works quite nice and gives
lots of ram, but when in a MAXDOS session, I cannot access the built in
apps.  This of course means, when I try and compose email,  the software
beeps and can't bring up the memo application.

Any suggestions?

Well.... I'm a die hard Goin' Postal person, but I feel your pain about
not being able to call the built-in apps. If you need to call an editor
why not use PE? It's a great text editor that has the look and feel of
Memo, but it's a much more powerful program and best of all D&A provides
it to the palmtop community as freeware :)

When I startet using WWW/LX Mai/June 98, I mailed the following passages
to Avi:

** I like to run WWW/LX under Syst-Mgr to be able to cut and paste from
the Sys-Mgr applications like Notes, Phonebook,...
 into my msg compositions using POST/LX **

Please optimize also for this environment!

Till now I can start *one* Sys-Mgr application in parallel to POST/LX,
if I do the following:
 - close all appl with 'moreexm', which also closes filer
 - use Appl-Mgr (shows 472K free) to start 'POST/LX' (using 375K)
 - call Appl-Mgr (&...) and close it (ESC)  !!!!important!!!!
 - call one Sys-Mgr appl ... close it, call another one ..

This gives also room enough to call POST-setup, pick and MEMO during a
POST session (using 10KB cut/paste buffer).

As far as I know, MaxDOS does not allow to switch to Sys-Mgr
applications to cut and paste while POST/LX is running.

Later discussions with Avi gave me hints, that the developers of WWW/LX
will not (be able to?) take care for this environment - but
 as PE (Pal-Edit) itself needs at least 180K in the pure DOS
environment, I'm confident that WWW/LX can be used under Sys-Mgr later
on.

Anyhow, I would like that many WWW/LX users ask Avi to take care about
running  WWW/LX under Sys-Mgr with Memo as preferred editor, ... (see
above).

Best Regards
  Hermann

I'm simple minded and I think that,
 when everybody sets time and time-zone correct, then
 my inbox would show the messages correctly when ordered by Date.
 (using f.ex. Netscape Communicator's mail client)

Now I get answers before the question is known!

Maybe it's not that simple.   =:-)

Au contraire... First of all, up until a few months ago, I have been using
scripts for my Windows 95 machine for a couple of years - at least since
Windoew 95 came out.  It was less than obvious how it is done, but my ISP
had figured it all out and provided the instructions in a nice pamphlet.
But we're now using an automated authentication protocol (one that still
can revert to a  manual connections with a terminal/modem, however),
that doesn't require scripts.  WWW/LX supports this - I just looked at
my setup and I am specifying CHAP_Script.  Check with your ISP and find
out what technique is used to login.

Subject:      Speed Doubled & the Display
Content-Type: text

I remember a comment here recently about the display on a x2 machine
just prior to the speed driver getting loaded.  It was said that the
screen was shifted slightly, maybe a little messed up, but still
legible.  This rang true on my first x2 machine (it had a 5/6 MB upgrade).
But on my current x2 machine (w/32MB upgrade) the screen pre-driver
load is *completely* unreadable!  What causes this difference?  Is
it the 32M upgrade?  Screen-to-screen variations?

This may work, but in the case of my ISP, it wouldn't take full advantage
of the automated (read faster) authentication/login process.  Our terminal
servers, if they detect a Carriage Return instead of the extected automated
(CHAP?) character sequences, will revert to the older manual prompts (this
permits one to connect with a terminal/modem or using a terminal emulator
like you suggested).  That's why a suggest he call once more and ask
what login/authentication technique is employed at his ISP.

-Chris

p.s.  I taught a introductory class in UNIX last year - you should have
seen everyone's surprise when I brought in a terminal and modem, and
showed them how they could browse the internet - email, news, www, etc.,
all for less than a $50 investment!

Must be a mechine-specific thing as my 32MB is easily readable before the
driver goes in.

I live in Salvador Brasil parelel 14 S and temparature renge from
25-32C and peak of 35-40 C. I've got no problems with temperature.
I is safe keep the HPLX away from direct sun exposure for long time
or inside de car when parking. This has happen to me with an HP42S.
The temperature inside the car reach 55-60C and the calculator
LCD screen turn dark. After temperature normalization the screen
recover the contrast and the calculator is OK.

Subject:      want to swap?

Having some memory problems with my stink normal 100LX after my pocket modem
stopped functioning and I have to work with my Thinfax 14.400 card modem I
wondered if there is somebody with a combination card who would be
interested to swap cards. I would give a functioning Megahertz modem card
with it which is at the moment only missing the telephone cord. Anybody
interested, give me an email and we could fix swap details.
Details of the modem cards;
EXP Thinfax 1414cl fax/data PCMCIA card with telephone cord
Megahertz data/fax modem 14.400 bps model# CC3144 without the telephone
cord.

It seems to vary from motherboard to motherboard, as on some the same LCD
panel is readable and not so on others.

Even stranger, it seems to vary with whether you have charging enabled.
Mine gets worse with higher current draws, on the AC adapter.

It also seems to be affected by temperature...

Confusing enough for everybody?  <g>

Subject:      My LX is Unhinged!
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT

Hi

I understand that hinge failure is a known problem on HP 100/200 LXs. In fact
there is a link from S.U.P.E.R. to a picture of an LX with a broken hinge,
apparently this problem is caused by HP making the right hand hinge too tight.

I thought my 100LX wasn't going to suffer this problem because the screen has
always been a bit floppy on the left hand end and anyway, having looked at the
picture on S.U.P.E.R. it appears that hinge crack can be seen at the back right
corner of the lid when the machine is closed up. I thought, therefore that even if
the hinge in my LX started to go, I would know before it got too bad. Well I was
wrong on both counts!

Last week I found that the lid of my LX seemed to be extra floppy and it was
difficult to close it up properly because the screen didn't seem to line up
properly. In a couple of days it got so bad I took the right hand end cap off to
see what was going on and I found that the screen had almost totally broken
away from the pivot.

At first I just tried super glue where the hinge was cracking, but it was just
about impossible to hold the hinge together will I tried to glue it, also the hinge
seemed so stiff that as soon as I tried to open or close my LX the hinge broke
again. I then tried completely stripping down the right hand hinge to loosen it up.
This wasn't a great idea since it is almost impossible to put back together
again - in fact I can't work out how HP manufacture them in the first place. I did
eventually get it all back together a bit looser, but still not loose enough to
make super glue last more than a couple of open/close operations. So for
about a week I was using my LX with the screen held on by elastic bands -
although this works (all the connections to the screen go through the left hand
hinge) and having a high tech thing like a palmtop PC held together by elastic
bands has a certain je ne sais quoi, it wasn't very satisfactory.

I have therefore had another go at fixing the hinge. This time I have reinforced
the hinge with a couple of strips of copper from the edge of a old PCB that I had
lying around. I have glued these around the curved part of the hinge where it
had cracked and up the right hand edge of the screen on the inside and along
the right hand side of the lid on the outside. This seems to have worked very
well and my LX now seems to be as good as new - if looking a little unusual.

So my question is has anyone else tried major reconstructive plastic surgery
on their LX? Did it work? and most importantly how long did it last? Should I
expect it fail again forcing me to get a new one or is it likely to last for years?
Obviously the answer depends on how well I've done my fix but if other people
have fixed their hinges and had years of use, I'd like to know (especially since I
was thinking of getting a big flash card but I won't bother if my LX is likely to
fall apart terminally in a couple of months.).

It's a Win32 application. It needs a Win32 capable OS...

This is just a wild guess since I don't have the same printer, but I've
noticed that some of the printers we use at work won't print out a DOS job
until they have a full page.  Have you tried form-feeding it or anything
after printing?

Mikhail,

Have you tried contacting D&A software support? I know this looks like
a pass the buck answer but there are some good reasons for suggesting
this:

1) D&A Technical Support (aka Stan) has probably had to deal with this
problem previously.
2) If they have not dealt with it previously they can add it to their
database for future customers.

Having said that I can tell you that you did not provide enough
information - most importantly who is the ISP? Looking at your email
address it looks as if you are with AT&T Canada. I know that at least
one of the other beta testers has used ATT (they insisted Win95 only
as well but...) and I thought there were suitable scripts provided?
Perhaps because you are with AT&T Canada the script needs modifying
slightly. If they want Win95 I would suggest trying the generic CHAP
script.

I will drop a line to that beta tester and see what he tells me but in
the interim I would contacting suggest D&A support.

As part of your additional information you should provide information
about what you have tried - it all acts as clues as to what may be
wrong.

you can try increasing the Static option in the Setup | Advanced.
Use Ctl-Filer to access the Setup app and in Advanced you have the
option to increase the Static. Mine is set to 10 but you may need
more according to the way you use your HP, i.e,  TSRs, etc.

What's this version got that Pocket Quicken hasn't (just a general idea <g>)

Also, would you be willing to deliver by internet?

Yes, I have had this same problem. In fact I have not been able to use
the Newton Keyboard with Word 5, Word 5.5 or WP5.1. I would be

I'm off on holiday in about a week and thought that

Lots of time to waste so intend learning HP manual

HP200's as I know they don't like laptops and
cellular phones (over here anyway).

Where is the the best location for text files for
novels, novelettes or any good technical text
files on the HP200LX or other technology
articles.

I made a cyrillic overlay by photocopying the overlay illustration in the
back of the manual (appendix D) with size adjusted to match the lx (I
think it was 125%), then cutting out the key-shapes with a razor knife.
My manual doesn't have a picture of an english overlay,
but you could use one of the illustrations as a template for the basic
outlines and then write the letters onto it.

I had intended to make a more permanent one by covering the paper with
thin plastic before cutting the holes, and to stick it down with a couple
of bits of that blue putty-like stuff you can get in a hardware store for
hanging papers on walls without tacks (I don't remember what it's called).
But the "temporary" one has worked so well I never felt the need to
upgrade.

You can put a copy of the speed driver on c:
especially if its a 32MB drv.

and why wouldn't you have a copy on a flash?
Everybody and his mother has a flash don't they?

Yes, Transfile should work, cpack will too.
if you got one of those screens you can still see
when speed goes.  or you may be able to injet it
with interlink or laplink. But best to get a flash
for out of body backups anyway.
If you don't have a substantial flash, how do you
back up?  You need a flash for on the road for out
of body backups when yor 500 miles, 500 miles,
away from home.

You can download with whatever transfer software you want but remember to
set the palmtop to 1/2 the serial port baud rate of the desktop to connect.

Mitch, I'm looking for a backup 2 meg HP200LX that can be upgraded to 6
or 8 meg.  I'm not interested in the speed doubling or 32meg RAM units,
just something like the 6meg unit I already have.  Do you know of a
source for a used one, and about what I might pay? About $200?

Subject:      Statistics software for the LX
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Hi.
I just wanted to pass along some information on a comprehensive,
easy-to-use statistics package which is currently available,
well-supported, updated, and cheap.  It is MODSTAT, made by Dr. Robert
Knodt.  It is available at:
http://members.aol.com/rcknodt/pubpage.htm

The package takes up a little over 2 MB.  It runs very happily on the LX.
Dr. Knodt has a timed, full-featured evaluation copy you can try out.  The
cost to purchase the registered version is only $22 ($18 for students).

I've used it for a few weeks now, and the most significant shortcoming
I've noticed is the lack of an import function.  However, instructions are
included which show how to convert an Excel file to be used.  Generally,
you have to enter data directly from the program, which can be difficult
for large data sets.  Also, the data entry does not allow editing.  Since
the data files are ASCII files, you can do editing with your favorite text
editor.  One quirk is a limitation of 6-character file names for data
files (I have no idea why).

Overall, I think the program is a bargain for the price, and it does every
test I could need it to do (over 200).  If you're a stats student or
newbie, there are also a couple of routines which will help you determine
the proper test to run.

Cheers.

For something as small as 10mb, either one would be OK. Watch out for older
PCMCIA cards that probably aren't as fast or power conscious as the new
flash/CF.

   >2) How much should I pay for a card and should I consider buying a
   >used card? It will only be used for backup purposes.

I paid $112 for a 16mb CF and adapter (includes tax and shipping) at
BuyComp about 2 weeks ago. Unless you're sure of your sources, I'd just buy
new .. 10mb shouldn't cost much and it's certainly not worth the
aggravation of dealing with a problematic card (unless you got it dirt
cheap).

   >3) Once I have a card, is there a simple way to dump a copy of my
   >c: drive to the card?

I use PKZIP to make a nightly archive of the entire C drive (sans EMM
paging area and temp directory). Best method to use may depend on the
size of your C drive and how much of it you plan to backup.

Let me put it this way, Tim.  Since installing WWW/LX Plus on my
palmtop, my desktop is obsolete for Internet Email and newsgroups.
Period, end of story.  I have all of my Email right at my finger tips
since my palmtop is always in my belt holder.  I am way too busy to be
tied down to a desktop for Email activities.  Since my palmtop is my
sole Email engine, I don't have to worry about which computer (home or
work) did I download with, or leaving them on the server for the other
computer to get, or reading them twice, or any other problems.

I got hooked on palmtop Email and messaging many years ago with the
excellent program acCIS that is the off line reader for CompuServe.
This program on the palmtop unchained me from the desktop for ALL of
my CompuServe activities and now Web/LX does this for all of my
Internet Email and newsgroup stuff.

I still use the desktop and Netscape for Web browsing, though.  This
is mostly because surfing the web is basically an online type of
thing, I print out a lot of the stuff I view, and because I am not
downloading much of anything I will be needing to carry with me.

BTW, I admit to being a acCIS and Web/LX beta testing since day one
for each of those products.  :-)

There may be a few other things you can do to optimize this.  Have you
looked at your settings for SysMgr Static RAM and clipboard?  Static
RAM is usually defaulted to 10K, but you never need that much.
Something like 2K is all you will probably ever need.  You may also be
able to reduce the size of your clipboard.

I know it is convenient to run WWW/LX Plus from an icon in AppMgr, but
when you do that, the AppMgr application remains open using about 17K
of space.  I notice in your tip that you mention closing it manually.
Well, if you you just shell to DOS with the hot key which is
Ctrl-Lotus, then you will end up at a DOS prompt with no overhead of
the AppMgr running.  Now just make a batch file that does a CD to the
directory where WWW/LX Plus is installed and then runs it for you.
You would set the size of this DOS box in the SysMgr Setup application
(Ctrl-Filer) F5 (System), F8 (Advanced) DOS.

If you like AppMgr icons or even if you use the Ctrl-Lotus and batch
file thing I just suggested, it would pay to have two of them.  One
which only runs the POST.EXE program directly for your offline work
like reading messages, writing messages, running SETUP or WWWSETUP,
etc.  And have another icon/batch file to run the WWW.EXE program
which then launches POST.EXE for online work.  Actually, it would
probably be good to have three - the third one would run WWW.EXE and
HV.EXE for web browsing.

The advantage of the first setup I mentioned is that without WWW.EXE
in memory, this gives some more RAM for other stuff like PE or SysMgr
(to use Memo) or whatever.

My first inclination would be to see if the login and password are
correct.  Check with you ISP to see if these is a special login and/or
password for authentication with the newsgroup server that is
different from the one to log into the ISP.  Or maybe there is some
modification to the login such as adding "news." in front as in
"news.mylogin".  Who knows.

Are you dialing into the same ISP that has the news server you are
trying to use.  I don't know that you can dial into ISP #1 and then
access the newsgroup server on ISP #2.

The important clue is the comment from the ISP Tech guy that said
"Win95 not require a script".  The "script" that Win95 uses is a
special authentication called CHAP.  So, to make this work with
Web/LX, just use the CHAP script and you should be fine.  But as Gary
S. pointed out, AT&T is a bear of an ISP with their weird login ID's
and passwords.  Working through that stuff will be harder than dealing
with the script issue.

The ISP's Tech guy who said "you cannot connect in DOS" should be
shot.

Either the Compact Flash or the full sized PCMCIA card format are the
same inside.  Doesn't matter.  If all you are ever going to use it for
is C-drive backups, then it really doesn't matter at all.

The way I back up my C-drive it to just use Filer to copy the whole
thing to a directory on the flash card.  In your case, I would suggest
that each backup go into a new directory which is named something like
the date of the backup, such as "19980802".

A better idea would be to use use PKZIP to compress all of the stuff
in the C-drive into one archive file on th flash card.  This will
save space on the flash to allow you to have more generational backups
and to keep the file count down.  If you ever need to restore
something from the .ZIP archive, PKUNZIP will extract it for you.

I use a batch file for this kind of thing like this:

rem     One parameter: date string
pkzip    %1  C:\*.*  -r  -p  -ex  -a+
pkunzip  %1  -t

The batch file is called ZIPBAK and takes one parameter and that is
the name of the archive file to create.  So, I run it like this:

ZIPBAK 19980802

to zip up the entire C-drive into an archive file with today's date
(as I entered it).  Works great and is less filling.  :-)

Thanks for the replies regarding corrupted RAM. The latter note
was great.

I did try check.exe which comes with stacker, but it didn't find
any problems with the disk itself, so I suspect the problem was wiht
my RAM. Haven't installed any new TSRs etc for quite a while either.

Tried the ESC-ON RAM test, but the screen suffered from the shifted digit
problem, and could make out numbers counting up, but they didn't seem to
stop counting. Any ideas on how long this should take for a 6M machine ?

Thanks

To test my login and password, I setup another newsgroup on my windows
computer using the same info.  And I noted that I had to check my server
requires me to logon.  But thats it, it works perfectly.

When I transfer that same info to post/lx, its still has an authentication
errors, cannot select group, etc...

Hi, Jeff:

1) Which is best, standard flash memory or the new compact flash with the
adapter to fit the card slot?

Get a CompactFlash card for the versatility it provides.

2) How much should I pay for a card and should I consider buying a used
card? It will only be used for backup purposes.

See http://www.shoresystems.net for prices. We'll meet any comparable price
you can find on new CFs. Used CFs are probably ok, but new isn't much more,
so why not go that route?

3) Once I have a card, is there a simple way to dump a copy of my c: drive
to the card?

Yes, just copy the contents to the card in the same way you'd copy files to
any fixed disk or floppy.

For me it seems to be the easiest way to run POST/LX with the required

I like to run a small DOS-Box with 124K. Also I've setup a macro called
with 'Alt-123' which starts DOS via Filer, using all available RAM.

Thanks for your hints on using batch files.

Around five minutes for double speed.

I'm looking forward to this.  I currently have WWW/LX, which I have only
used expensively on vacation.  Problem is my company's central exchange,
which has trouble with even a 2400 baud connection sometimes.  Fortunately
rumor has it that we're collecting quotes for a new system, so hopefully
I'll have a similar setup to yours, soon.  (I could now if there was
an ethernet interface for www/lx - alas, this isn't available.)

Just for Info. I use ABStat for DOS , is a commercial program not
very expensive ( about 70-90 USD), and can import and export TXT,
CSV or DBF files.

There are one demo for windows limited do a few variable available
It is a complete stat program and the DOS version run nice in the
HPLX. It is distributed by Anderson Bell.

abell@rmii.com

Here are the main specs.

ABstat and ABsurv+ have been united into one program named ABstat.
There is also a Windows version of ABstat called WinSTAR.

Exploratory Analysis with descriptive
statistics, frequency distributions, box plots, histograms, scatter
plots, bar graphs, pie charts and more.Parametric and
Non-Parametric statistical tests for analyzing differences or
relationships in your data. Powerful but easy-to-use banner
and stub reports for in-depth analysis of survey data.

frequency report
Kolmogorov-Smirnov 2 sample test
Kruskal-Wallis 1-way analysis of variance
Mann-Whitney U test
both a 1 sample and 2 sample runs test
a sign test
Spearman rank correlation
Wilcoxon signed ranks test
Chi Square
simple cross-tabulations

ABstat now has all the survey functions of ABsurv.

For those upgrading from 6.0 or earlier, the file format is new and
now
includes true character variables up to 255 characters long and a new
print-image numeric type in addition to floating point; there is no
longer a separate 8087 version.
Increased max data set size to 512 vars by 32000 records.

Subject:      Re: Flash Question

Hi Jeff;
10MB is too small, yor not looking at the big
picture.  The big question.
Presumining 10MB is all yor gonna need for the
forseeable future, I would suggest you get 20MB
or even 32MB which is under $200.  You won't
have to worry abouy about zip files and have
the three generations you need and still have
room for very older zips.

The problem with zips is the inconvenienc to fool
with it when you need one file.  A good thing with
more storage space is you can keep your necessry
files with you but not on the C: Yu really never
have enough.

Its also good for security should you have all
your a/c nbrs and other confidential stuff on it,
the guy that finds don't get everything.  Like a
safe, if he's got the time, he can get in, if its
worth the trouble. You have both with you but not
together.

Actually 80+MB isn't too big.  Ever think of big
pieces of info that"s good to have on hand?
Like maps.  Tables,  Reference stuff.  If your not
thinking of using the LX this way, try a CE.
Its got color and so much easier.  Really.

Semper Mobilis,
yor pal al :) .............

You also might want to consider running Dosshell, which isn't
quite as fast as hot-keying, but is pretty useful.  I use it
for WWW/LX, Post/LX, Excel 2.1, American Heritage Dictionary,
WordPerfect, etc., and the Sysmgr.  Also, the price is nice
($0).  You can get it from an original disk set of DOS v. 5.

Send it to Thaddeus - they will fix all ills for a flat $125 (I
think) fee.  I think it would be worth shipping across the

Good luck,

Jeff,

You can also make some change via debug, the directions for which T2T
provide.  I just had mine 'fixed', and had similar worries.

Hi, I cannot say much to your question how long it will take to fall apart
again but can just describe was happened to my 100LX.  Mine cracked not on
the outside but on the inside. Gluing with a superglue did work but after
less then a year after the repair it seemed that the hinge is completely
gone.(there was actual no place at the inside for any reinforcements)
 The crack was there again and after opening the right side it showed
that the glue had made the plastic brittle. The plastic particles came out
easy and after some fine work on the rest of the hinge I removed a 0,7 cm
wide and 1 cm long spring of the hinge. The bigger parts of the plastic
hinge remains I put back and closed the hinge. Right now there is no
friction what however (the screen is now practically flat when I open the
100LX and I have to keep the palmtop carefully in my hands when using it. I
do not know how long this situation will work and if other parts on the
right side may come loose. There is a small metal axle which formerly was
inside the spring which seems to have no function but I am scared to remove
it too. At least I can work with it at the moment and there is no stiffness
at all which would bother me :-(
I am open for suggestions if any on how to keep my 100LX alive.
This computer has a nut loose on the keyboard!

Subject:      Qua!-lx and UQWK
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

With the recent discussion about Pine and other email programs, I thought
I'd take another crack at using my 200LX to read email.

Currently I have a dial-up account on a UNIX server where I can use
Pine/Elm/Mutt to do email.  This works fine since the HP ends up being a
terminal.  What I'd like to do is to read and compose email offline.

The Pine software on S.U.P.E.R. seems to require something other than a
dial-up account to work.  I also looked at Qua!-lx Ýa UNIX-Mail gateway for
cc:Mail¨ on S.U.P.E.R..  This seems like it would fit the bill but the docs
have left me a little confused.

I think there is a lot more I'd need to do than just call up the server.
Seems like there would be some manual moving of files or something.  The
server has both uqwk and sendmail installed.  I guess I'm just not sure how
to get everything to work together.

Is anyone using Qua!-lx in a similar situation that would be willing to
answer some questions?

Thanks,

Don

Thank you every one  who gave me advice re setting up WWW/LX. It was a CHAP
thing, after all. I shouldn't have called those idiots at Attcanada, just
experimented with settings on my own.

It's a great program, no question about that. I am just waiting to get my
authorization code from Dasoft to throw off those desktop chains.


..... The ISP's Tech guy who said "you cannot connect in DOS" should be
shot....

Even better - let him remain there for the rest of his career.

Remember, most of the people you will talk to at an ISP are Windoze only
folks.  They are too young to know much about DOS.  Might I suggest
finding a local ISP and getting to know the owner.  My ISP provider is
fascinated by the idea of access via the 200LX and the freedom it
provides the user.  I suspect it will only be a matter of time until he
joins the 200LX world.  We are all ambassadors!

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hello HPLX subscribers,
in response to all articles about recharging and heating the 200LX, I have
dismantled my  power supply , which is a switched high frequency supply. The
following should hold true to all "non heavy" that is "not standard metal
transformer" types. The switched supply can usually be bought in stores that
carry mobile phone accessories. Some can be as small as  a standard
matchbox. I have a supply that is rated 12V max 0.8A that is big as about
1/2 the pack of cigarettes.  Most of DC adaptors of the switched type have
on their circuit boards a variable resistor, which can regulate the output
voltage in some extent. I tried lowering my down to 9V and charge the 200LX
with this. All I got was a "parity check error" and a frozen machine. I
restarted by Ctrl+arrow+ON and next tried recharging by 11V. This time it al
worked fine, the heat generated was very mild when compared to the former
12V I used, the 1500mA NiMH GP reghargeable bateries charged to their full
2.66V which is what I used to get when charging by 12V and the screen was
readable al of the time.

It seems to me, that charging with 11V DC that is easily obtainable by
adjustment of a switched power supply is a better deal to your LX than
warming it up by 12V. I will post a message if I find, that the bateries are
behaving different to what I was used to when charging by 12V (lower life
per charge), but I feel that there will be no difference.

Wishing you a pleasant day

for some time I have been on the lookout for LCD screen I need for a 1MB
200LX.
Deja News did not fethc anything.
Does anyone on this marvelous list know of a source or has a otherwise
unuseable (broken) 200LX with a useable screen I could buy?
Any idea if there is a possibility of mailing such a  1MB unit for upgrade
(SN SG54600554) and get a new case and a new screen for a reasonable price
(say arround 150 $).
All ideas wellcome!

Now that sounds like a neat project!  The question is, can a case for the
HP200LX be purchased from HP so that a set of drawings and subsequently the
cnc code produced to make the case.  I wouldn't want to take mine apart to
pursue such a project, but I would be willing to purchase a case and make
the drawings.  Then of course, there is the cost and any potential problems
with HP over duplicating the case design.  You could also make the case out
of 2024 Aluminum and have it anodized in black, red, blue or whatever.

Hey now!  This was my wish to the list several months ago.

I think we could blow those CE machines out of the water if we had our
devices housed in beautiful anodized aluminum.  Face it, the green 200lx
case is kind of ugly and prone to cracking.  Anodized aluminum or highly
polished stainless steel would be the ultimate in geek cool.

My dad, an engineer/sometimes-surveyor wants one in a day-glo ABS plastic
case.

Let us know when we can place our orders <g>.

PS - I bet aftermarket cases like this would sell like hotcakes for the
PalmPilots and Palm IIIs.

Gosh... I'm sure I did this once, back when I first got my palmtop and
was running Windows 3.1 at work.  Seems like there was some third-party
shareware program that did this.  Sorry I can't be any help, but seems
like just knowing it has been done might be of interest.

I was interested in the speed that compressed
.exe's load. The uncompressing will take some time,
perhaps offset by the size of the exe to be read.
So I tested four of the compressors:  diet. pklite, lzexe,
and tinyprog. Producing this table for a 76K program
showing space saved and the time penalty to load the
pgm on a normal speed 200LX:

                             Size       Time to
                              bytes      Load
Not compressed     76288     1.4 sec
 Compress with:
  diet                     42466     3.6 sec
  lzexe                   42971     2.2 sec
  pklite                  41382     2.2 sec
  tinyprog              43344     2.6 sec

So I am going to uncompress a few of my most used
DOS programs and avoid using diet for this purpose.

The Simtel DOS archive has a directory (EXECOMP)
that contains 25 items related to compressing exe and
com files. One interesting program there is chk4c360.zip.
It scans exe's and identifies pgms. compressed with one
of twelve compressors.

Not a good idea, not a great idea
not even an outstanding idea, but a
superclifragilisticexpialidicious idea.

I might comment, to make this with a padded
insuation to absorb shock when dropped. If poss
shock absorb the screen too.  very doable.

You might wanna check with kiwigreen to see
what they've done to date.  They ruggedize

I'm not up on Material Science. Is 316 SS dent and scratch resistant?
Seems that was Delorean's problem with his ss car body..too difficult to
cosmetically treat minor dents and dings. Of course it wasn't milled
ss either.

Less geek but more grunt...you can spray it with rhino-coating like they
use in truckbeds. Then just take a sharp knife to free all the frozen
joints <g>. I'm sure you can get your choice of colors, but getting the
batteries out may be a problem.

Or if you want chic (or gaudy) have your LX gold-leafed. Be like carrying
gold bullion in your pocket. OTOH, if you do this and you use your Lx a lot
in public, make sure your life insurance is paid up.

The original dies or molds were probably made with some kind of CNC
program.  If that is available, or the CAD file used to generate the CNC
program, we could be in business...so to speak.  I am a CNC machinist
working as a programmer, but, alas, the machines I'm working with
curremtly are 2D lasers.

How about magnesium alloy?? The case on the new 3 lb. Sony super-slim portable
looks very nice.  (If the battery didn't have a 1.5 hr effective use period,
it might be a very attractive machine from a get-work-done stand point, too.)

By the bye, if a few of us were willing to kick in some non-recurring bucks,
maybe something other than a pipe dream could result.

Cordially,

Lynn M. Cavendish

Probably too heavy.  I'd rather see the case made out of that plastic
which also BE the battery.  Expand battery life by enlarging it!

It looks like PKLITE is a clear winner based on compressed size and
start up delay.

Bear Ý*¨ in mind that other files of the same size may compress quite
differently, and uncompress/load with different times. But I agree
that PKLITE looks pretty good!

Thanks very much for the table!

If you're considering a major project like a new case, why not make it to
accomodate
a backlighted screen??

The program used was Disk Navigator which
reads a directory and presents a file list.
so maybe .3 sec should be subtracted as being after
the load. The uncompressed exe is noticably faster.
Its hard to time events that short.

Subject:      HP 200LX SRAM Card as a disk drive under Win95
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hi.

Sorry if this was already posted on the list but I didn't find any proper
answer in the archive.

I use a 2Mb SRAM card as the A: drive in the HP 200 LX.

When I insert this card in the PCMCIA slot of my Win95 PC, it is recognized
and installed as an SRAM card but I can't have access to it as a disk drive
and read/write files as I did under Win 3.11.

Does anybody know if special drivers are needed to achieve this ?

Thank you very much.

Etienne

You could try ks.com (available on SUPER) to stuff keys in the keyboard

Hi Mikhail,

If you're using Win95 without a script, try using WWW/LX with the CHAP login.
It it worked for me!

Mine too, but in addition:

I have been experimenting with solar cells. A solar cell with the size of
the HP can easily feed the hardware and top off the batteries (provided
that you use a 3 volts cell and connect it directly to the batteries). I
have been doing this, and glued a solar cell on the top cover of the HP.
Sadly, a very thin glass panel doesn't get much protection from the easily
bending palmtop case, so it didn't take long before it cracked.

My palmtop is for me something which makes my computing independant. The
only thing I need is a weekly charge for the batteries. Now, if I could get
rid of that! Just imagine. Your palmtop always ready to use, never to worry
about batteries. If it gets low, put it out in the sun, and tilt the top
cover so it gets the most out of it (I'm living in The Netherlands, and it
could be possible that in warmer countries you'd better put the palmtop in
the shade, where it still charges rapidly enough).

Yep. And it provides a much stabler backbone for a fragile solar panel.

I will definitely order one!

I'm using a 13.75 Volt 100Amp power supply (no, not only for the Palmtop,
it is feeding quite some equipment as well at the same time). The HP
doesn't get warm at all, and also the screen stays perfectly readable. My
wife is charging her HP also on my desk, but sometimes she's using a small
12V adapter in the kitchen. Now, if the Palmtop is charged in the kitchen,
it gets hot and the screen becomes unreadable. What I suspect (but haven't
checked) is that a cheap 12V adapter is throwing out a voltage which has a
large 50 (60) Hz wave on it. That *may* be interfering with the switched
power supply inside the Palmtop. That also explains why my 100 Amp 13.75V
DC-canon (which is as smooth as possible) doesn't heat up the HP.

>It seems to me, that charging with 11V DC that is easily obtainable by

I just don't believe that 1 Volt difference should make a difference at
all. By 200mA input this means a difference in power consumption of 0.2
Watt. That's not enough to make a difference between hot and just warm, folks!

>behaving different to what I was used to when charging by 12V (lower life
>per charge), but I feel that there will be no difference.

If some people want to lower the 12V themselves, you don't have to adjust
something inside the power supply. Just buy a diode, and put it in series
with the Palmtop. Every diode lowers the voltage with 0.7 Volts. (Don't
worry: if you connect it the "wrong way" it will simply not conduct,
nothing gets broken). You can put multiple diodes in series if you wish.

Does pklite do a one-time compression (create an executable)?
Or do you have to recompress after each use?

The truth is that I didn't verify what kind of 256Mbit they have achieved,

Can't check it out now, but the normal RAM test should take no more than
five minutes. The hard test takes much loooonger, but anyway, despite the
shifted digit problems, you should see the numbers changing. If it stops,
maybe there's something wrong about your DRAM.

The backslash key is up at the top left corner, right between the ESC key
and the F1 key.

Shifted, it produces the | (pipe) character.

No recompression needed. Not by any of
the exe compressors that I know of - it doesn't fit
the model.
BTW, lzexe is free, pklite is shareware.

Pklite DOES compress , but it also adds a self-extraction header to the file
when it does.  the compressing part needs to be only done once.  Then every
time you use the program, it decompresses itself into memory and then runs
the program that it just placed into memory.

Compression is done once......decompression is done every time you run the
program you compressed.  Once you've done the first part, the rest is
transparent to the user.

I charged the night before, no problem..  Plugged it in last night, didn't pay
attention to if it started charging or not, and this morning it was cold and
hadn't charged...  Checked the adaptor, it had 12v, plugged it in again,
nothing..  Setup reported it was still on battery power.

So I did esc shift on, and luckily it happily reported to be charging.

Weird stuff..  I think I'm not the first one to have this happen though, but
at least that's the first thing to try if this happens.

for two Konexx products (a $130 unit that uses two 9V batteries
and a $90 unit that requires AC) and something called a
"LineStein" (I'm *not* kidding :) for $120.  The latter also
requires AC and claims to "learn" various phone systems.

If anyone has experience with any of these converters, or
other systems, I would greatly appreciate hearing it.  My
work phone equipment is AT&T if that matters.

Thanks for any and all comments.

I recently found drivers for my Miniature flash card, this is not an ATA card,
so it needed special drivers.  This driver also had stuff for SRAMs.  I loaded
the driver and now I can read the Miniature card just great.  After seeing the
info for support on the SRAMs I tried my SRAM and it worked fine.  The only
hitch is that I can't remember if I could read the SRAMs before or not.  I
never needed to read the SRAMs in my laptop.
Give it a try...

In my daily work, I run dBase programs that generate text files. These
get printed out via Memo application. The printing is always OK.
However, when I try printing straigtht from dBase, printing is not
reliable. Somelimes I get a few lines of Xs and that's all.

I assume that my LX's serial port somehow spontaneously disregulates.
Is this the "fiddling" that NOFIDDLE.com is supposed to prevent?

NOFIDDLE came with my WWW/LX, but documentation.

I couldn't configure to work with TRANXIT with the IR port from HPLX.
I can only communicate in DOS mode with connectivity set at 9600 BPS
in IrDa PROTOCOL.

But I believe the kit worth just to elimitate the wires.

Just recieved my HP Palmtop Paper (Volume 7) yesterday from Thaddeus
Computing. It advertised 64MB 2Xspeed upgrade for 1 or 2 MB HPLX at
US$799.00.  Used like new 200lx 64MB 200LX at US$999.95.

Samsung announced as 256Mbit SDRAM but it's not EDO.
http://www.sec.samsung.com/news/cgi-bin/secnews.cgi?app=print&key=173&

I suppose the Hitachi 128Mbit is the last memory for LX.

Duh. I was just thinking that 80K is a fair bit. Then I realised:
        (a) that's probably including docs etc etc
        (b) should be able to apply lzexe (pklite or tinyprog) to itself!!!

That's a great hint!! :-)

I was able to remove the DOS-drivers (which I was advised to use by
W95-Help) and can use my PCMCIA SRAM cards now under W95 (32Bit).

I've removed the DOS-SRAM drivers first (from config.sys) and installed
*only* the 'M-System PCMCIA Card Supp Driver' under W95 (setup.exe).

Till now I did not use the 'TRUEFFS.INF' for installation under W95.
(Actually it didn't install without the Card Supp Driver.)

  Hermann

When you plug in the charger, a built-in software program should start
automatically but couldn't as your computer was hanging for some reason.

The software controls the charging through a counter: if less than 6 hour=
s,
100 mA is taken, else 45 mA. And if the charging program is not running,
the adapter just deliver power instead of the batteries.

Hi All

     Just a quick reminder, there are three (four if you count sending
a message to the LIST itself ;-) ) methods to subscribe to HPLX-L:

1- Send a message to LISTSERV@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU with SUBSCRIBE HPLX-L
in the message body from the account from which you wish to subscribe.
You will receive a confirmation request to that account, answer that,
and you're all set. You can ubsubscribe in the same manner by sending
SIGNOFF HPLX-L.

2- Point your favorite browser to
http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml and fill in the form.
Don'tforget to replace "user@domain.name" your own address!

3- Drop me a note and "tell me your troubles".

Cheers,

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I've got a friend that has a 2meg, HP200LX that's started to eat batteries.
It doesn't have any extra RAM or doublespeed mods.  No cards inserted into
the PCMCIA slot.  The IR port is turned off.  The unit used to have a 3
month battery life.  Now they only last about 1.5 weeks.

I've suggested that they back up the RAM and just do a hard reset.  We'll
see what happens after that.

Anyone else have this experience?  If so, what caused it and what cured it?

Konexx has also been advertising a new model, which uses a DSP chip to
free you from fiddling with the gain adjustment.  The battery-operated
unit (Mobile Konnector) comes with an AC adapter, by the way.

A search with Dejanews had revealed that Konexx was the most frequently
recommended brand.  Other models I spotted included the ModemMate and
InsideLine.  Those others appeared to be from OEM's, and I recall that
the latter was dropped when the "manufacturer" (whose primary business
was software) was acquired.

I tried and returned a Konexx Mobile Connector, which is likely the
battery-operated unit you saw advertised.  Before my trip, I tried it
on an AT&T analog phone at work, where it worked just fine (these
devices plug into the handset jack on the phone, so it seemed a
reasonable test).  On the road, I tried to use it with a Comdial
Executech II.  It failed to connect at the recommended gain setting
(there's a list of settings for common phones in the manual), or at any
of the other 3 settings (they run 1-4).

Since this was a weekend trip, I couldn't try Konexx tech. support.  I
stay at hotels infrequently, and encounter digital phone systems even
less frequently, so I decided to simply return the product to the
dealer.  The alternative was to hope for another opportunity to test it
within the two-year warranty period.  My guess is that I had a bad
specimen, or *really* noisy lines.  This was with a 14.4 modem, by the
way.

I recommend that you try a Konexx, purchased through a dealer with a
good return policy (I'd used MacConnection).  Since you plan to use the
device at work, you'll have the option of sorting out any problems with
Konexx tech. support.  Konexx is clearly focused on this business,
unlike the other companies I checked, and they do have a good
reputation.

Good luck, and please do share your findings.

                                -Jim.

I assume you meant the Com1 port, not the IR port. In any case, both should
normally be turned off for power savings. The com1 port power is toggled via
Setup/F6/Enable Com1 Port/...

Good suggestion. HP might also suggest completely initializing your system.
To do this, you'd have to backup your C drive, as all data will be lost.
Remove all batteries (including the backup) and let it sit overnight to
drain (I think some people say it can also be drained by holding down the
"On" key for a minute, after removing the batteries).

Then replace the batteries (I think the original instructions say to put the
AA's in first and then the backup).

A useful tool for diagnostics is the LXSTAT program on the SUPER site which
would display all the current settings in effect. You could output that to a
file and include it in any future notes so we could see exactly how the box
is setup.

OK folks, I got my brother to lend me a real 360K 5.25" floppy
drive, and it reads all of my old floppies just fine! (whew, that's a
relief)

Unfortunately, I'm too lazy to read my old doc wordstar files from
the  Osborne disks they're on (anybody remember a way to read
these???) short of firing up the old cp/m machine again, so anybody
that wants the manual has to pay $5 for a photocopy and postage if
they actually want to try writing programs with the thing. (Yes, it
was originally developed on an Osborne 1 computer with a hp7470
plotter and epson mx printer!)

Visit this webpage:

http://www.leconsulting.com/arthurhu/softplot/softplot.htm

It's freeware - I've still own the rights, but pass it around to anybody
you want or put it on your own web page, just give me credit. It's got
qbasic included so you don't have to ftp it separately, it will run on
dos, windows 3.1, window 95/98 or NT in a dos box.

Here's the direct address of the download

http://www.leconsulting.com/arthurhu/softplot/softplot.zip

As a bonus, I've got a cute little "abandonware" Fisher Price
school bus game program that works well on the LX if you want to
impress your kids, it's same address, but bus.zip instead.

It's worth having just to have a cool demo to show your friends on
the little LX screen. There's just a little one-line change to change
the screen resolution for HP95, or switch to color in the screen
driver section  of the code.

It's also rigged to print to a epson mx-compatible printer  with
emuplot.exe and the HP7470 if anybody is brave enough to try it
out.

SOFTPLOT/BGL (BASIC GRAPHICS LANGUAGE)

SOFTPLOT/BGL is a software library and demo program for
Microsoft BASICA and QBASIC to add device-independent
graphics in a fashion similar to Hewlett Packard AGL-compliant
BASIC computers popular in the 70s and 1980s such as the
HP2647 programmable graphics terminal, the HP9800 series
desktop computers, and the HP-85 series. It was created back
in 1983 when I had visions of making it big in graphics before I got
sucked into writing the Twin 1-2-3 compatible spreadsheet
for Cambridge based Mosaic Software (no relationship to the
browser)

Here's a sample program that plots sin(x)/x from -pi to pi :

1000 :NEWPLOT 1
1010 :SCALE -3.14, 3.14, -1, 1
1020 FOR X = -3.14 TO 3.14 STEP 3.14 / 20
1030   :PLOT X, SIN(X)/X
1040 NEXT X
1050 :ENDPLOT
1060 END


It's nearly impossible to create this with so little code with MFC,
Windows, or even Visual Basic, because it handles scaling,
and you don't have to worry about winmain, or all that other yucky
stuff.

There's was also a FORTRAN version, and maybe someday there
will be a C, Windows, Visual Basic and Java version.
Amazinly, to this day, no microcomputer supports the equivalent of
the plotting packages / language extensions common on
FORTRAN minicomputers or BASIC scientific computers, it's all
done in pixel coordinates

Now that I've got a HP200LX, which is a pocket sized PC-XT with a
CGA compatible screen, I've dusted it off as a neat
vector graphics demo program, since there don't seem to be any
out there

I've not yet redone the programming manual, but I can send a
photocopy of the old manual to anyone that wants to pay $5
and play around with programming it. It draws in a blink on 200MHz
machines, but works OK on XT class like the
HP200LX as well.

Here are some features

     2D scaled graphics, move, draw
     Set user coordinates left, right, bottom, top
     "Show" preserves square coordinates, extends sides that end
up short, classic ommision from most non-HP graphics
     packages.
     Set viewport area within page
     Unlabled axes
     good old plot / penup
     A real clipper
     Text justification (helps label axes)
     Text at all angles and sizes (HP plotter only)
     3D line drawing
     3D auto scaling within box of interest
     Driver sends output to screen, plotter, or metafile
     Driver for HP plotters, reads P1 and P2 paper size!
     generates HPGL metafile
     emulation of metafile to Epson MX80 (I need to revamp this to
higher resolution!)

Here are some neat architecural features

     maps keyword arg1 arg2 to p(1)= p(2)= gosub xxxx
     preprocessor let you write program as if it had keywords
     library merges onto end of program after line 9000, so entry
points are stable, and don't conflict with user program
     library uses only one array Z9, which frees namespace, and
makes it run much faster

To Run the Demo:

Download zip file Go ahead, I'm making it freeware, have a ball.

Unzip the file to a directory like c:\softplot

It contains a copy of QBASIC, I'm assuming you already have a
licence for DOS, it's been deleted after DOS6, and not
included on the HP200, but it is also available on Microsoft's FTP
site. BASICA or GWBASIC, which are purely line
oriented with no "graphic" style front end will also work.

From QBASIC, Alt-File-Open DEMORUN.BAS, F5 to run

From BASICA

LOAD "DEMORUN.BAS"
RUN
Just hit "1", enter to run on the screen, ignore the plotter (unless
you want to try hooking up one)

I have a problem that I hope can be addressed in this list.

I had been using Laplink Remote that came with the connectivity pack,
both DOS and Windows 3.1 modes.  It worked alright, until I migrated to
Windows 95.  I suppose I did not install the windows version right,
because CPACK needs to run LLRA1.exe in the autoexec.bat when using
win31.  I got a message "Not Enough Resources" if I try to run LLRAWIN
in windows 95.  No matter how I try to alter the autoexec.bat to include
the LLRA1, I always got the same message.

Is anyone using Laplink Remote successfully, in Win95?  Maybe you can
enlighten me of what went wrong.  Thanks.

Have a look at http://www.palmtop.net/~jorgen/w95.htm

There's a tip or two.

Yes! MS "invented" CHAP and pmade it the native mode of login

I had exactly the same problem as you are describing, and found the
solution somewhere in the Web (sorry, can't remember where).

In short: I have in the autoexec.bat in my Win95 machine:

        cd \cpack200
        call llra
        pause Wait for connection

When the system boots, you have to wait for a connection to be
established before the protected mode part of win95 starts. This is the
reason for the pause. After the connection established beep of the
palmtop I press Enter, windows boots, and I have a new drive F: with all
my palmtop files.

Hope it helps.

My autoexec just has c:\progra~1\cpack200\llra (progra~1 being the dos
equiv of Program Files which is where I put it).  This line was
installed by the Cpack200 installer as installed after installing
win95.  The Cpack 200 installer needs to run in dos and after installing
you startup windows95 and run setup in the cpack200 wdirectory to
install the windows extensions to make windows happy.  I have done this
many times as windows95 is not stable and it works every time.  I also
checked the startup items in windows95 and there is nothing in it or my
config.sys.

My autoexec just has c:\progra~1\cpack200\llra (progra~1 being the dos
equiv of Program Files which is where I put it).  This line was
installed by the Cpack200 installer as installed after installing
win95.  The Cpack 200 installer needs to run in dos and after installing

you startup windows95 and run setup in the cpack200 wdirectory to
install the windows extensions to make windows happy.  I have done this
many times as windows95 is not stable and it works every time.  I also
checked the startup items in windows95 and there is nothing in it or my
config.sys.

Here is yet another question about 200LX solutions for Internet
access.  I've finally decided to give up on Data Comm.  I like
using my shell accounts, but would like more to begin doing my
reading and writing offline.

My interests are mainly e-mail and Usenet--I rarely use the web
and could really care less about browser capabilities.  I'll
either get used to what comes with any package I get, or continue
to use Lynx from a shell account. I have tin set up to mail
posts to one of my e-mail accounts, but will want a method for
posting responses.

Here then is my list of desired capabilities for e-mail and
Usenet.

   MUST sort incoming messages into multiple directories

   must be able to import my Pine addressbook (~200 people)

   must be able to PGP sign without a lot of contortions

   should allow capture of e-mail addresses (no typing)

   should allow selection of filenames when exporting

   would like ability to task-switch to native LX apps

I am willing to spend some time setting things up, or to
spend some money, but would like some assurance that the
solution will meet my needs before investing a lot of either
(my time or money).

I'm afraid Goin' Postal has already been cut.  It looks
like Net Tamer, LXTCP/PNR, and WWW/LX are still possibilities.
PCPine may have an outside chance too.  If anyone would be
willing to share their opinions or experience I would be most
grateful.  If I get enough comparative information I will
try to put together a table.

Thanks to all, especially for the patience of those of you
for whom this is a tired subject.

Yes! Some time ago David Becher <davidb@netmedia.net.il> posted the
best tip that I've seen and it easy too. I have it on hard copy so give
me a few and I'll re-key in email.

Does anybody else remember that post?

You might want to check out Sydex's 22Disk (distributed as shareware) at
http://www.sydex.com/other.html .  I'm not sure how well it will work;
many PC disk controllers have difficulty reading single-density disks.

Of course, once you get the file over to MS-DOS format disks, I think
you may find you need to go through it and remove the WordStarisms
like the most significant bit being set on the last characters of words.

Okay, I'm going to give LXTCP one more shot.  I've got all
the zip files and have printed out some of the instructions
(how's *that* for serious! :)

Only problem is I'm confused at the beginning.  I'm using
a PCMCIA 14.4 Megahertz modem which leads me to believe I
need to use pppd, the serial line driver.  On the other
hand, Rod's directions state that LXTCP programs rely on
bootp protocol and the Dos PPP ddocs say that eppd (the
ethernet driver) emulates bootp.  Which do I need to use?

I'm so confused...

If you mean that it is a wonderful bargain, in light of the amount of work
that went into it, and the small market to which it is offered, then yes, I
agree.  We owe the innovater a large debt of gratitude.  (I expect to stay
with my more modest 32 Meg unit for a while yet.)

Hello list members,

As greed would have it, I have stacked my SimpleTech 40 mb ATA
flash card on my 2x 5 mb 200 LX.  I thought the doubled speed
would make the Stacker-compressed drive run about as fast as a
non-double speed palmtop accesses a non-compressed flash card.
 The jury is still out.  For the 40 mb card, I've loaded about
60 mb of stuff via Stacker, and filer says I have about 35 mb
remaining, which I know is overestimated, but this much space
in the palmtop sure is tempting.  I haven't noticed that much
of a speed detriment yet, ...


I'm having two problems:

1.  I cannot boot from the C:\ drive and have Stacker.com load
automatically.  With the same config.sys on the non-compressed
portion of the A:\ drive, everything loads.  I've tried moving
the statement to different portions of the config.sys file, to
no avail.  Has anyone noticed the same problem?  Not that it is
a huge problem, since I can boot from A:\, but this is curious.

2.  I bought one of the $10 PCMCIA drive cards from NECX,
which works like a normal card drive in Win95 - the machine
beeps when the card is inserted, like a normal drive.  The
only difficulty there is that this card drive is in the back
of the computer, making it a little awkward, which for $10 is
no big deal.  The problem is that I cannot get Stacker
Anywhere to load, so I can read the contents of the compressed
ATA card.  Non-compressed cards work great.  The error message
returned says that I'm tryng to run Stacker Anywhere from a fixed
drive, and Stacker Anywhere is meant for removable drives.
I've tried assign d:=3Da:, in the desktop's autoexec.bat file,
but that doesn't work.  Does anyone have any ideas?

TIA,

Claud

Subject:      Digital Line Converters

My solution to digital lines for the PBX at the Sheriff's Dept was to buy a
line splitter for about $3.00. I simply plugged it into the back of one of
the fax machines that aren't on the PBX and have a direct number. It's
unobtrusive since it's out of sight, I plugged a short length of phone cable
to it and just tuck it behind the fax machine. Whenever I come by the
station to do paperwork or to take care of other business <grin/blush> I
just remove the wire from behind the fax machine plug it into my X-Jack
fire-up Goin' Postal and voila, in about 60 seconds or less I've snagged my
email and news for reading and replying later in the evening.

There is a very active Perl USENET forum, full of active, helpful Perl 5
users. But there is a thing you should know: they hate Perl 4.
You will most likely be flamed several times for even mentioning it.

But maybe someone will be helpful, or one of their FAQs might give
a definitive answer. My suspicion is that there is no such guide:
Perl 4 seems to have been completely abandoned.

It doesn't have any extra RAM or doublespeed mods.  No cards inserted into
the PCMCIA slot.  The IR port is turned off.  The unit used to have a 3
month battery life.  Now they only last about 1.5 weeks.

I've suggested that they back up the RAM and just do a hard reset.  We'll
see what happens after that.

Anyone else have this experience?  If so, what caused it and what cured it?

Yes, I had the same problem.  removed all the software for my stock 200 2
mb and could not get it to work right.  batteries lasted about 3 hours
total.  stopped using it for about 6 months then just sent it in to
thaddeus.

Might help if you keep it without any batteries at all for 24-48 hours and
then try a fresh set.
I have heard problems with bad components, especiall resistors and
capacitors.  I understand that the power circuits are on the main board and
are easy to fix:  just swap them out!!!

Let me know how it goes.  Hope you don't have to throw in the towel....but
gives a good excuse to upgrade memory!!!!

Content-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable

Thanks a lot Barry, for this tip. However, I could not make it solve my=

particular problem as the card driver
would access my SRAM only after reformatting with the provided utility
Tformat.

Simultaneously, I found another tip on
http://www.scmmicro.com/techsup/win95.htm#sram which made the whole stu=
ff
work
with Win95 generic card drivers, so I quote it here to inform the list.=


Start of quote : ------------------------------------------------------=
----
---------------------------------------------------------------

SRAM and other Flash PC Cards

If Windows95 does not detect the PC Card, you can install the PC Card
manually.
This can be done under Add New Hardware in the Control Panel.
Under Windows 95, there is one Memory Technology Driver (MTD), which
consists
of a generic SRAM driver and two flash drivers, FLS1 and FLS2.

This assumes that the SRAM and Flash cards were formatted successfully =
at
some point in time.

If Windows95 does not assign a drive letter to your SRAM, follow the st=
eps
below;

(The following device drivers should be added to your config.sys file.)=


1.At C:\> prompt, type edit C:\config.sys=A0=A0=A0=A0 <enter>
2.Add the following two lines:
Device =3D C:\windows\system\csmapper.sys
Device =3D C:\windows\system\carddrv.exe /slot=3D1
(slot=3D1 is for one drive letter only. Use slot=3D2 to use both slots)=

3.If the manufacturer of your PC Card has provided a 16-bit DOS driver,=
 add
 it after the above two drivers.
4.Save your config.sys file, exit, and reboot your system.
5.Insert your SRAM or Flash card and a drive letter should be assigned =
to
it automatically.

Yep, and then possibly again for 128Mb. And maybe again for 256Mb...

This is marketing. I have my doubt whether it was not to be foreseen than
if 32Mb was possible, 64Mb would be possible as well. In my opinion, there
should be a reasonable upgrade policy. I ordered my 32Mb LX200 one month
ago. I feel I should at least have been informed that a 64Mb version was to
be expected soon. (Nah, you don't "invent" a 64Mb type and have it
available, PCBs ready, drivers ready, etc. within one month time). They
*knew* it! And if it is not going to be possible to upgrade recent 32Mb
versions to 64Mb for a price which in total doesn't exceed the cost for a
direct upgrade from 2Mb to 64Mb I feel somewhat being cheated. :-(

And I will likely get plenty of companion with these feelings. I don't care
too much about the prices. I'm a Palmtop freak, and I want to have
something special. This doesn't come for free, and I'm prepared to pay for
it. But I simply hate to buy the "best of the best" and then see that
almost immediately after this a sudden "unexpected" improvement is
announced, and that I end up with paying in total much more than when I
bought directly the final thing.

Have these guys ever considered a "most advanced model guarantee" where you
pay once for the service, and with later improvements just the costs of the
components etc.? Just like the fixed price for repairs?

For the moment, I will resort to a CF card if I run out of space.

It is subjective really, there market is very small and niche like,
with
the capabilities of DR DOS the HPLX 64 could probably blow
the CE machines right out of the water.  Plus the excellent DOS
legacy programs available.

When I think what I used to achieve on an XT with twin 720k floppies
(no hard drive) 640k Ram and the excellent {COMMO} communications
program (38k!! with scripting, little bit more with Zmodem). With a
QWK mail reader it was magic.

WYSIWYG has a lot to answer for.....just look at the size of Winfax
PRO then some of the DOS fax programs on the SUPER site.

Hope many fruitless hours are wasted by people in business
creating learning the complexity of any many features of WORD,
EXCEL.

I felt the same way when I laid out all that money for my
top-of-the-line Sony ES Dolby Pro-Logic receiver. Now wouldn't you know
it, they have this new full-range 5.1 Dolby system that even has its
own track on the new DVDs! You can't get the best sound unless you have
this. I wonder if Sony will give me a price break or a nice trade-up
allowance on some new gear? Well of course they won't! They want to
make money just the same as the guys doing 200LX memory upgrades. There
are so few vendors supporting our platform of choice these days that I
think we should be happy to have them and not begrudge the profits they
make from our desire to have the best, biggest and fastest 200LX
around. My $.02...

Anxiously awaiting my 64MB DS 200LX,

Take your "Honey's advice" and get a CE unit if you want the synchronization
capability. But don't get a Sharp Mobilon - they're junk and the 4500/4600
has only 1.5 - 2.0 hours battery life. Performance when the soft modem is in
use is a DOOOGGGG!!

The HP620 and 660LX get 5-6 hours battery life, have a great deal more
software built-in, and HP's Tech Support puts Sharp to shame.

In-Reply-To:  <34c6e9b6.35c8ff10@aol.com>
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Today I tried opening my old HP200LX palmtop. I discovered the screws under
the rubber feet, and got pretty far in opening the whole thing. Except that
under the comma key both halfs remain firmley attached. I tried everything
possible, but it just doesn't give way. What's the big secret here?

(Reason for opening: I want to investigate how the power supply/charger
works, see if it can be improved, and see if it is possible in a nice way
to feed the palmtop on 3 Volt solar cells with a size not exceeding the
cover).

Thanks in advance for some hints,
Frans

Subject:      My trusty PCMCIA modem has died. Help me find a new one ?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

Well it finally happened, the 14k4 PCMCIA modem I have been using
 has finally up and died (the same day I downloaded a trial version
of WWW/LX).

It had served me well in some most unusual situations, the reason
I favour PCMCIA ?  When coupled with a Konnex aucoustic coupler
you get _complete_ freedom and I have had strange looks sitting
in payphones with my road warrior kit, all I needed was the solar
panels and I'd be surfing the net till the cows come home.
Have had problems in noisy environments (airports, and noisy
delivery vans), but all in all the setup worked very well.

Now comes the difficult task of finding a suitable replacement which
won't drain the batteries faster than a short circuit, and for that I turn
to the list for advice and models which are still available since
everything
seems to be current hungry 56k beasts.

So what y'all using and what would you suggest I get for a replacement ?

(of course if anyone happens to have a spare one kicking around they
would part with...).

Thanks in advance.

Well you're in luck at to where it will stop.  I seem to remember that the
palmtops processor has a built in limit as to how much memory it can address.
That is unless they figure a way to upgrade the processor????

I don't think the issue at hand is whether the vendor should make money or
not. The issue is timing. To sell a product such as the 32mb upgrade without
informing the buyer of a 64mb upgrade being available in a month smacks of
someone who's first concern is to reduce old inventory.

I agree as to not begrudging the few vendors supporting our platform for
making a profit.. as long as they likewise not try to piss off the few
customers they have by poor customer relations.  It doesn't cost a whole lot
to do a better job...

- Longden

PS I can't spare $.02 anymore <g>

Typing EXIT doesn't do anything.  This happens

Rebooted and still the msg.  Finally gave up

If your considering a flash disk.
here's a thought.

Get a Simple 64MB ATA flash.
It seems to be the best (now).
at $236 or less, its $4.19/MB.
That cheeper than any other one.

...also at 64MB you'll be ready for the
64MB C: when you upgrade :)  You know
how it is when yor C: is bigger than yor
backup :>   If not, yor BU will always
ATTIC storage space.

Of course more is better but the 80MB at
$344 is $4.30/MB.

I don't begrudge the profits they make. I know they charge more than just a
small fee over the costs, and they can have it. The problem I have is to
give it to them *twice* in a month time. And I understand very well that
technique is developing very fast, and that ten years from now there might
be a palmtop which has a CMOS Pentium 800MHz inside, which runs on a tiny
solar cell, VGA resolution, a 8Gb ramdrive inside, in a case half the size
of the 200LX.

But to announce the 32Mb palmtop, selling it to some people, while
experimenting with a 64Mb version already, and not telling the customers
about it and not offering them a choice to either wait a month or going for
a reasonable upgrade scheme is a little too much.

>Anxiously awaiting my 64MB DS 200LX,

I expect a 128Mb version soon, and I've heard rumours that 256Mb is
possible too. And since these guys are not telling you honestly what's
going on, you'd better be a little patient unless you are willing to pay an
upgrade fee every month.

Actually, I'm currently doing nearly the same thing--only the fax
machines where I work have phone lines that are easily accessible.
I simply unplug the cord from the fax and into my X-Jack for a minute,
dialup and download, and then replace the cord.

Wow! You got it workin' in Linux? Could you outline the steps taken to
make it run?

I got it working in 95 by using the steps below:

1.      Install card
2.      Boot 95
3.      Run "Add Hardware" from the Control Panel and have it search.
Reboot
4.      Go to the device manager and see that the "PCMCIA Controller" is
present
5.      Click on "PC Card" in the Control Panel and it says something
about upgrading drivers, blah, blah, 32-bit yadda yadda then reboot
again.
6.      Once booted,  I insert the flash card I get the familiar laptop
"B'Deep" and an explorer window pops up with the card file system. Piece
O' Cake...
7.      When I pull the card out it bellyaches about not telling it
first just like on a laptop... Fun stuff.

                I installed the card successfully on Red Hat Linux 5.1,
and was able to access
                a Simple Technologies 8Mbyte flash card.

                The installation procedure given on the SCM Technologies
Web site worked
                for Windows 95, but W95 could not mount the flash card.

Find a very complete hardware store. (The one here in Colorado is
McGuckins) In the screwdriver aisle, there is a possibility of finding a
screwdriver set.  I don't remember the exact name, but it is basically a
driver and set of bits for screwheads that are non standard. Regular blades
with a plug in the center, pentagonal ones, etc.  I'm not sure it has a Y
head, but that would be the best bet I could come up with.

I don't think a hard reset will do it but certainly give it a try after
backing up (Incidentally, you can hard reset by pressing <ctl>+<on>+<¬>(the
gold shift key).

Does the 200lx still discharge when it is turned off as well? Look for
battery gunk on the connectors and clean if so. If that doesn't fix it you
may be looking at pulling it apart if you feel comfortable with that.

Cheers,
Mike.

I might have a bit more sympathy for the argument that the vendors
didn't inform us of a 64MB upgrade IF the upgrades were the same cost
or even close to the same cost, but they're not. The 32MB is $499 and
the 64MB is $799. Granted, some may not care about the money and want
the most internal memory available. In this case, it's a marketing
screwup. Not because the vendors slighted us so much as they slighted
themselves. Some customers would have opted for the 64MB instead and
the vendors would have made just as much or maybe more money. The 64MB
upgrade has not obsoleted the 32MB upgrade. Both are very viable
alternatives to those of us who want to ditch flash cards and have the
high speed of the internal drive.

Finally, knowing Mack B. and the guys at Thaddeus, I really can't see
them refusing to negotiate with someone who is in the "just purchased a
32MB, but wants a 64MB now that it's available" situation. Give them a
call or an email and see what their position is. It never hurts to ask.

in dealing with "one of the slower ones."
Now, I have been trying to ger the Andrew3 font to load up, but get an
"odd fontsize" error message. If loaded from the dos prompt mem/c shows
it loaded but fonts stay the same. I use FCLDL with JiniFont
successfully. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Hopefully,

I'll try asking the list...

1) Does anyone know if there is a list of the exit codes produced by PGP
2.6.2 for various error conditions?

2) Does anyone know if there is a recommended way of verifying a correctly
entered passphrase, other than attempting to sign a dummy file and
checking for one of the above unlisted error codes?

3) How are public keys typically gathered and entered into PGP?  Not "how
do you add a public key to pgp", but "how does a regular pgp user tend to
be presented a key which they will want to add to their public keyring"?

4) I know there are export controls on PGP, but is anyone aware of any
controls on shell programs that invoke a cypher program like PGP (I
wouldn't think so, but it *is* the government...)

I believe that the maximum internal RAM the 200LX can address is 128MB...
correct me if I am wrong.

Subject:      Syncing the Hp200lx with Outlook98
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Ok, as long a people are venting about pet peeves today, I'll put my $.02 in
on another subject.  If you have an HP200lx and want / need to sync it with
Outlook98 you are out of luck for the most part.  Sure, there is a
spreadsheet solution which is one way, and cumbersome to say the least.
Since the folks at Puma Technology obviously have the technology in house to
sync Palm Pilots etc with Outlook98, why can't they merge that technology
with what they also have for the 200lx and give us a method of syncing the
200lx with Outlook98.  I am sure I am not the only one who would like a
solution to this problem, someone mentioned ACT 4.0 to the 200lx, they
should be able to provide that capability also.

It would seem to me that with all of the modular technology in programming
today, that it would be a relatively easy task to merge the code that reads
and writes to the 200lx with the code that reads and writes to Outlook98 and
give those of us who don't want to move to a larger CE handheld a tool we
could really use.   I bought my 200lx for a couple of very simple reasons,
battery life and size.  I like being able to fit the 200lx in a pocket so it
is handy where ever I go, not to mention 6 weeks or more on a set of
batteries.

I don't really want to reinvent the wheel here, but I need to be able to
sync up with Outlook98.  If I have to do this myself I will, but I would
much rather pay for an upgrade to Intellisync than buy the SDK for the 200lx
and the Microsoft development tools and spend many hours developing a
solution to this problem.  Is anyone else out there interested in this
capability

Hmm... this is an unusual case.  I know of several times back in Jan / Feb
when people sent their palmtops in for an 8MB upgrade and were informed of
the upcoming 32MB upgrade and asked if they wanted to go with that
instead.

Well, Frys was selling Creative Modem blasters for $14.99us a few weeks
ago. I bought one and it has worked well for me. You might find one
auctioned on E-bay or another auction site.

Happy hunting,

As promised here is the re-type:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 <snip> <David Becher> <date: unknown>

Running LapLink remote access in a Windows 95 DOS box.  So here goes ...

I am going to assume that you already have LapLink remote access installed
in your desktop in a directory which I will call C:\HP200.  I also assume
that when not in the Windows 95 GUI (ie under DOS) that you have it set up
and working, and the name of the batch file that starts up LapLink is
LLRA.BAT. If you need more information on how to do this just look up the
SUPER site under "Hacking with Jorgen".

1. using Notepad or a suitable text editor, create a batch file, which we
   will call LLRAWIN.BAT containing the following line:

   command /k llra.bat

2. Save the file in your LapLink directory (C:\HP200)

3. Using Windows Explorer or "My computer" go into the LapLink
   directory and highlight the new file LLRAWIN.BAT. Click on the right
button
   of your mouse and select the item "Create A Shortcut" from the pop up menu.

4. Now highlight the created shortcut, and once again click on the
   right button and this time select "Properties" from the menu.

   Under the "Program" Tab click on the "Advanced" Button.  In the "Advanced"
   window make sure that the item "Prevent MS-DOS-based programs from
detecting
   Windows" and "Suggest MS-DOS mode as necessary" are both clicked
   (I'm pretty sure that the second one is not vital). Click on the "OK"
button.

   Click on the "Screen" Tab and make sure that Window is selected.
   I also have it set for an initial size of 50 lines. I have all the other
items in
   this window also checked.

   In the "Misc" tab I have selected "Warn if still active".
   Click on OK to close the dialog box.  I have then dragged the shortcut
onto my         desktop to keep it handy.

   Having done all this, how does it work?  I connect my palmtop to the
desktop
   with the cable, start up LapLink on the palmtop and then double click on
the
   shortcut to start it up.  After a couple of seconds I hear the toodle tone
   from both computers and I am connected.  Inside the DOS box I can use the
   command line, or Norton commander are any DOS program to access my
palmtop.

   I can also run a batch file to back up my palmtop using PKZIP or any of its
   cousins as the palmtop appears inside this window as drives G: H: etc
   (in my case).  When I have finished, I type "exit" inside the DOS BOX.
   I then get a  message inside the box saying that my TSR is now ready to
run and
   that I should press CTRL C to exit it.  Typing CTRL C will then close
the DOS box.

Hi Paul,

What FRYS was that?
Manhattan Beach , Ca maybe!

Boy! $14.95. The Ultimate Summer 1998 Palmtop Catalog (Thaddeus Computing)
page 15
has them advertised for $69.95. Go figure!

I've been using Diet since I first got my 200LX about a year ago, and I've
tried PKLite and Diet, and I've come to the conclusion that Diet, overall,
does better compression, compresses MUCH faster, and while I've never timed
decompression I cannot immagine that PKLite could be much faster, as usually
there is no delay.

Morever, Diet allows compression of data files, and upon loading Diet resident
it automatically decompresses and recompresses the files.  Sure, Jam/Stacker
does the same, but you don't *have* to have their 40-50k driver loaded all the
time, and there isn't a specific amount of disk space dedicated either.  Also,
Diet will UNcompress files, I don't believe PKLite can.  Also, Diet is *much*
*much* faster at compressing files than PKLite is.

Not that I need to sell Diet on anyone, but I've just found it works much
better for me than PKLite, but do try both and find out.  :)

Hello?  This isn't about having the biggest, it's about having a tool
that gets the job done.  If 32MB would work for you a month ago,
chances are it'll still work today and you don't need the 64MB...yet.
So save your money, keep using your 32MB unit, and when it's apparent
that you really do/will soon need more fast storage you buy what you
makes those most sense for you then.

And don't forget that if it's just space you need, it will probably be
cheaper if you buy it on a PCMCIA card.  Seriously, these upgrades are
for space and time: the RAM upgrades provide faster disk space (and
EMS if you're into that sort of thing) than do flash EEPROM cards.

Subject:      Synchronization
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I am just getting *back* to my HP200LX after some time of various
infidelity (let's see WinCE 1.0HPC, Newton, PalmIII, WinCE2HPC, currently
Phillips Nino), and one thing that made me leave was the lack of
synchronization to Lotus Notes.  However, the compelling features - PIM
apps, calculator, DOS, size (really no bigger than the Nino...) and battery
life (WinCE people are recharger freaks, even without any PC Cards...) -
were too much to ignore.  I am trying to set up a work-around system now.

Puma appears to have a core strategy right now that is focused on three
legs:  IntelliSync for Notebooks, WinCE and Pilot.  All others are
secondary, including the HP200LX.  I couldn't get commitment on this, but
the economics are rather obvious.

The core Intellisync for Notebooks allows you to do many things, and I have
the version that came on my Libretto hooked into my desktop to synchonize
my programming files, so I can then maintain 3 copies (laptop, desktop, Jaz
drive).  It also allows PIM to PIM synchronization.  By upgrading to
version 1.6 (about a week released) you get to sync to Outlook 98, Act 4,
and (of course) Notes.  So, the theory from Puma is that I use the 'mature'
Intellisync for HP200LX to sync to something like Schedule+, then use the
'fresh' Intellisync for Notebooks to sync Schedule+ to Lotus Notes.  I can
schedule the processes to occur whenever I want, so it shouldn't be an
issue.  I ordered the two Intellisyncs (the 200LX and the upgrade to1.6),
and will try it when they arrive.

I'll let you know how it goes...

I think that the reality is that the 200LX platform, while not dead, is not
obtaining significant mindshare in the frenetic CE/Pilot race.  So I
believe we have to be a bit more patient and creative.  I would much rather
do a double sync to use my HP200LX, and even have to use Lotus Organizer,
than have a direct sync to the HP620LX...

Another plus which maybe isn't clearly implied here is that you can unload
the driver.  I have some batch files which load DIET, then load the
program (which uses DIETed data files), then unload DIET.  It's invisible
as far as I can tell.

This is a very nice feature, since some programs don't like to be
compressed for various reasons.  If I run into a problem, I just type,
"diet -ra Ýfilename¨" and it's like I never touched it.

I'm tempted by LZEXE based on the speed tests posted recently, but since I
really don't notice a delay in loading files, I'll probably stick to DIET
for most things.

Hello.
Hate to be the source of bad news, but I had a similar problem, and the
solution was a new motherboard courtesy Times2Tech ($125).  As someone
else stated, at least it gives you a good excuse to upgrade (the speed at
the very least).

Hope it's something cheaper...

I was at future shop sunday and saw a
"Data Traveler 33.6" cellular ready pcmcia modem for $169.00
It has its own battery pack to reduce drain on the Palmtop's battery.
It stated it can be powered down to save even more power

AND it listed the Hp200lx as a supported computer right on the box.
I don't need a modem at this point and couldn't justify spending the money
right now but it is on my list.

That is decidedly a matter of opinion. Who even uses Lotus Organizer anymore instead of Outlook or Goldmine?

It is not a question of Syntax. Perl 5 has a huge amount of new features
that are just not available in Perl 4. It's a kind off trying to
backdate the C++ syntax to C.

The upgrade from perl 4 to 5 is easier: just run perl -w, and it tells
you all you have to change (mainly @ in quoted strings).

Yes!
I am willing to pay $250,- for S/W that would do this. I might even be
persuaded to lay down the cash in advance if someone promised to do the
job!

How about it, anyone want to follow my lead?

Subject:      Re: Synchronization

In my organization there is a commitment to Lotus Notes as a messaging and
directory backbone.  Notes group scheduling is the rule (although many
aren't yet using it).  The organization also supports PalmPilots, to some
extent.

If one uses Notes for scheduling, the user interface and features are
fairly poor.  Also, native Notes scheduling doesn't download/sync with
much of anything.

If you use Organizer 97 GS, it provides a nice UI, good import/export/sync
features, and automatically links with Notes mail and scheduling (it reads
the same files and syncs with the same server).

I do agree that the double syncing seems cumbersome, but I'm interested
to see if it works.  I personally re-enter my invitations into my LX.

With a storage card you really should stop the card BEFORE you remove
it so that the OS can flush the buffers that may contain valid data
to be written to the card. Worse case you could trash the directory
structure or the FAT and not be able to access anything on the card.
Not stopping the card is the same as turning off your computer
without shutting down the OS correctly, while this was ok with a
simple OS like DOS the more complex the OS the more likely a problem
will occur. The easiest thing to do is to go to control panel /
pcmcia and check the box that says show icon on taskbar. Then before
you remove a card just click the icon and a choice to stop the card
comes up, pick that and wait a few seconds until it says you can
remove the card. A little extra effort but it may save you some lost
data in the future.

This procedure applies to a laptop with pcmcia and it also applies to
non-storage cards as well. Things like network cards and modems need
to be shut down so that the services that were started when they were
plugged in can be correctly shut down. These instructions also apply
to any complex OS, including Linux. It has a stop procedure for cards
just like win95.

Can't say anything about the modems but I have had good dealings with
this company, they are the ones selling the wireless lan cards.
Several others have purchased from them as well and I have yet to
hear any complaints.

Frans et all,

        Did you think to ask them if there were any larger upgrades in the near
future?  I know from personal experience that the answer would have been
yes, are you interested in a larger amount of memory?  Mac is not
cheating the palmtop community or trying to dispose of old inventory as
another list member assumed (why would a 32 meg upgrade be obsolete and
need to be liquidated anyway?).  It takes time to develop and beta test
a product.  The release date is not always known before hand.
        IT REALLY PISSES ME OF WHEN THE PEOPLE ON THIS LIST START ATTACKING ONE
OF THE FEW HONEST PEOPLE THAT CHOOSE TO SUPPORT OUR BELOVED PALMTOP!  IS
this the way you folks deal with others?  I sometimes wonder about the
inner thoughts of people that expect that everyone else is shafting
them.  Perhaps the folks that think this way, do so because this is how
they secretly treat others.  If this seems like a personal attack on any
of you, perhaps it should be a wake up call.  Think about it.  Mac does
not deserve to be attacked for his business ethics.

Rant mode off,

I looked this up and the NECX PCMCIA card reader works great under
NT 4.0.

This is what it says, after rebooting, it works just great. I might just
spring $85 to get the hot swap, it's really a pain to have to get the
card back in to enter stuff into quicken and have to reboot.
Everthing else is on the connectivity pack. BTW, has anyone
figured out a way to run ROM quicken on the desktop? Is there a
way to read the ROM?

http://www.scmmicro.com/techsup/winNT40.htm

If you installed the SwapBox in your system after you installed
Windows NT, the PCMCIA.sys device driver will not be installed at
boot time. It will be disabled. To correct this, click the Control
Panel icon, then click the Devices icon to change the startup of the
PCMCIA.sys (for the ISA controller card) and Atdisk.sys (for
ATA-Drives or ATA-Flash cards) drivers to Boot. The system then
needs
to be restarted for the changes to take effect.  Click the Services
icon to change the Plug and Play startup to Automatic. Reboot the
computer for the changes to take effect.

SystemSoft Corporation has a software utility for Windows NT 4.0
which adds hot swapping capability to your PC. Go to SystemSoft

CardWizard 4.1 delivers improved PC Card support that includes the
following: Enables hot swapping (hot insertion/hot removal) of ATA,
Combo, Flash, ISDN, Modem, Multifunction, Network, Serial I/O,
SRAM,
and Zoomed Video cards. SCSI and Specialty cards are supported
at
boot time.

CardWizard is available immediately at
http://www.systemsoft.com/catalog. CardWizard costs $79.95

Hey guy

Sorry to hear about the demise of your beloved.
I've got a SMART 14.4 with six MB mem to trade for
another LX toy?  I'd take a 20MB flash.

If that that doesn't help, try an I/O Data 20MB /14.4
modem memory card.

Hello. Wondering if anyone else has noticed this...

I have two versions of BananaCom: ver 2.0a, and 3.1a (lean).

My problem: when I run ver 2.0a, the cursor disappears. Not a big deal, but
annoying when you're running a text editor.

So, you say: "Run 3.1!"

Problem: it freezes for no reason from time to time, generally runs slower,
and demands that I register every 6 days.

So:

Does anyone know how to fix/get:
a) the cursor in 2.0
b) a newer/better/less annoying version

(and)/Or, would someone recommend a better program?

Thanks kindly.

Owen (no, the other one)

I think a /bw on the command line or something similar will clear that

I had a bad experience with Card Wizard and NT4.0 (with SP3).  Caused my
machine to lock up and show the blue screen of death.  No way out and had
to reinstall NT!

I then found similar software from Award (the BIOS people at
www.award.com) and it worked like a charm.

Incidentally, NT does not have the nice feature for removing PCMCIA cards
that purges the write cache.  You just need to wait until it's doen or
disable it.

NT 5 supposedly will handle all of this better.

Isn't the SMART modem/memory a 14.4k FAX but 2400 data?  I have one
here that is.  Slow flash and modem, but *very* easy on the batteries.

I asked/begged the author to trim the big version for palmtop use and he
complied with my wishes <grin>. You should allocate all possible memory to
it or run it under MaxDos, I use for hours on end with no problems
whatsoever, it sure beats the heck out of DataComm. As far as
registering.... I did.

Good luck!

Hi Q-man,
Nah, it's the Frys in Oregon, just south of Portland. The box was
branded Scout, I figured well for $15 I'd chance it, but the modem and
the books all said Creative. Maybe they were dumping excess(or
seconds.) I just remembered they don't work with LXCIC 1.1, do work
with ver. 1 though. Don't really like Frys, but their on my regular
circut for toy shopping.

Hi, folks:

I apologize in advance because I'm sure this topic has raised before, but
didn't pay much attention to it.


I've the chance to buy a ACE 80MB doubleflash card for a good price. I
assume it's a 40MB ATA flash card with software compression.

Anyway, I've heard that ACE is out of business, and that the cards have
some trouble working in the HP200LX. Is this true ?... do they have any
other compatibility problems ?.

Thanks. Nacho.

Absolute maximum is 128MB, which is limited by the addressing capabilities
of the Hornet IC.

But another more restrictive limit is room. There's ver little room left
inside our 200LXs. I guess the most one can place in there is a PCB with
three chips on each side.

Using four 64Mbit DRAMs, you get 32MB. Using four 128Mbit (which are really
two 64Mbit in each package) DRAMs, you get 64MB.=20

It's impossible to use six 64Mbit DRAMs, because the ones required by the
Hornet IC have 4 bit data bus and must be grouped by four in order to get
16 bit datapath width.

Perhaps it's possible to use six 128 Mbit DRAMs, for a total of 96MB.


But beyond there, the next generation of DRAMs must be used, this is,
256Mbit, and accordint to Kazuto Kitakubo, the ones planned by the
manufacturers that have achieved it don't include EDO nor FPM, which are
the only ones usable by the 200LX.

Regards. Nacho.

backup is removed before the AAs), hold the ON key down for a minute or so.
This should discharge any remaining power in the system (most likely charge in
capacitors). Found that Ctrl-Shft-On did not completely remove everything,
but this did.

As far as memory upgrades go, I got an upgrade to 6MB in May last year only
to find out about the 8 MB upgrade shortly after. But, I am happy with what I
have (Aussie dollar is so bad at the moment, having lost 20% since that time,
that any upgrade is not possible in the forseeable future). I did read
on this list a while back that 128 MB was the physical limit of the HP200LX
due to addressing issues. I'd love to be proven wrong on this matter.

I'll be waiting until this upgrade is released before considering an upgrade.

Can you tell me what sort of software, drivers, etc. you used to get this
working under Linux?  I've got one of these cards on order, and I assume
there must be something more than just plugging it in.

HPLX-L Listmembers:

     Please accept my sincere apologies, I went on vacation for a few
days, and was unable to access my EMail since Thursday. The Listserver
locked up with a message overflow (> 75 messages) and I was unable to
free it 'til now.

     Yes, I had my LX, but was unable to access a phone line w/ credit
card (most furstrating, as I know the answer lies in the archives, but
could not access this either!) Anyway, I should have sorted this out
before I left, but time was short before departure.

     The HPLX-L is still alive and well, and you are all still
subscribed ;-)  (the rumors of my purchasing a PalmPilot are just
exaggerations).

     Again, my apologies for any inconvenience or frustration.

Cheers,

Hi Tonia

I am not familiar with Act but wonder if you can print or save as a vanilla
text file?  If so it would be possible to import from DOS into the LX.

Any idea of the format within ACT?

Subject:      PGP guinea pig and thoughts
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Ok, I'm looking for some advice from long-time PGP users, as well as
looking for someone using GP and PGP to try what I've got and give
me some feedback (especially if you're not already doing it via the
LXPGP method)

The solution I have some up with works with any editor/reader, and
is totally external to GP itself (so it won't waste disk/memory on
those 1mb units that can't hold PGP anyway).  It appears to work very
well (as far as a short-term PGP user like myself sees it) for someone
with one secret key.  It won't work with multiple key situations.  One
case I can think of would be a family, each with a mailbox, all expecting
to use PGP.  They would each need to restart GP and enter their own
passphrase.  To handle cases like this would require extra code inside
GP itself, plus would make the single-key case a bit less clean.

What I'm asking is this; is a multiple passphrase situation unusual?
Currently here's how it works:

1) Upon starting GP, you are asked for your passphrase
2) Upon exiting GP, the passphrase file is wiped and erased
3) Upon entering the editor/reader, messages containing PGP bring up
     a decode/verify/neither selection
4) Upon modifying a message body, another prompt is displayed offering
     encode/sign/both/neither selections

It's smart enough to not query on scripts/filters/sigfiles, not query on
unmodified files, and not query on messages not containing PGP (well, I
hope - I need more info and tests on this one!)

I'm using Netscape communicator and I leave msgs

something burped, and my Inbox contained 4 msgs.,
rather than the 100 (previously read) that I expected.
The text file is still on my system and I can read older
msgs. with a text editor.

Since most of my E-mail comes from this list, did anyone
else experience this? Could it be a bad msgs in the stream?

I've been playing with my new WWW/LX and ccmail etc...  All the while when I

forgot the adapter at work before.

Well, I remembered about patchcom on super and tried it tonight.  It hooks
my com2 on my desktop which has my hp on it, to com1 which has my modem on
it.  You have to set the baud to 9600, but thats OK.  No more messing with
cables or adapters, and it works in a DOS box on win95.

Now I'm experimenting with Omniprint.  Can anyone give me any pointers?

Hopefully this isn't too far off topic...

I asked Philip Tait how he got his PCMCIA memory card working under Linux.
He apparently had trouble responding to the list, so he asked me to
forward this response:  (The following are his words, not mine)

Peter Fales

====================================

Notes from my installation:--------------------

References:  1. /usr/src/linux/README, 2.
/usr/src/linux/pcmcia*/PCMCIA-HOWTO

For the Simple Technologies 8Mbyte flash card (or any ATA flashcard) to
work, rebuild the kernel with PCMCIA IDE support.

Much of the following is probably not necessary if you select PCMCIA
support during initial installation of RH 5.1.

cd to /usr/src/linux/pcmcia*, then 'make config' (defaults seemed to be
OK),
'make all', and 'make install'.

In the /etc/config/pcmcia file, set PCIC=i82365.

Reboot with the new kernel, then run '/etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start'.
Plug the flash card in - you should hear two beeps from the speaker.

You should then be able to mount /dev/hdX1, where 'X' was 'e' in my case,
but is probably affected by the presence of other IDE devices in your
system.  This can be done automatically at insertion - see the README in
the /usr/src/linux/pcmcia* directory.

Use the run level editor to add 'pcmcia' to start at your default runlevel,
or link /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia to /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S45pcmcia.

There is detailed documentation in the /usr/src/linux/pcmcia* directory.

I am looking for software only for the connectivity pack for HP 200LX.

Does anyone have a copy they would sell?

Thanks,

You should definitely check this out then ..

                http://www.newdealinc.com/

From their web page:

       "Not only does SchoolSuite 98 deliver (to even 286 and
       386 machines) an up-to-date and fully graphical,
       multitasking, and networkable application suite including
       built in web-browser, word processor, database,
       spreadsheet and graphics programs it does so at a small
       fraction of the cost of purchasing and equipping new
       machines. As a result, schools can now upgrade their
       computers economically through software, rather than
       replacement, and improve their student-to-computer
       ratios dramatically."

The 8088 is not officially supported, but they claim that
the package was tested in-house with an XT, and it runs
even though slow ..

I do not believe that the LXTCP programs *require* BOOTP, but it sure is
helpful.  I suggest using the EPPPD.EXE (check out CHAP.ZIP if you want
CHAP authentication).  It makes configuration quite a bit easier.  In
the WATTCP.CFG you can specify, "my_ip=bootp" and avoid the need to
specify an IP address, gateway, netmask, etc.  You must set the "namsrv"
entry in your EPPPD configuration file or command line.  Note that EPPPD
is emulating BOOTP and that it is not required to be supported by your
provider.

Otherwise you can use PPPD.EXE and set all the needed information in
WATTCP.CFG manually.

Last night I had the most amazing dream (but that's another story).

As a part of this dream, I took a HP360lx (commonly known as the GBP, or
Great Big Paperweight), gutted it, and replaced the components with the
following:

An ultra-low power Pentium 75 TCP (tape carrier package)

256mb onboard RAM (192 storage / 64 running)

Hooked it up so that you could flash the ROM (256mb) with whatever OS and
programs you wanted. That way you wouldn't be dead (on the road or in the
future) should things in your life change.

The best part was I somehow got 40hrs of battery life (2 AA) out of the deal
and reduced the weight by a couple ounces.

Sometimes I just hate waking up in the morning ;)

P.S.
As I've just won my second HP360lx in a giveaway, and Microsoft deemed it
necessary to give me a palm-pc at a conference I went to, I offer this
prayer.

"Oh great god of prizes, please stop letting me win useless CE devices and
instead let me get something useful like a hernia or a root canal"

Hi, folks:

I apologize in advance because I'm sure this topic has raised before, but
didn't pay much attention to it.


I've the chance to buy a ACE 80MB doubleflash card for a good price. I
assume it's a 40MB ATA flash card with software compression.

Anyway, I've heard that ACE is out of business, and that the cards have
some trouble working in the HP200LX. Is this true ?... do they have any
other compatibility problems ?.

Thanks. Nacho.

And in the Thaddeus catalog, they listed it as rated at something like
350ma when in use--well beyond the 150ma the palmtop supplies to the port.

What is the correct amp rating for the creative modem blaster?

Thanks for the tip, I just tried this and it does work, although it can be a
long process if there are a lot of changes.  Here is how I did it assuming
that Outlook98 had the most current data, which it did fore the most part:

1.  Sync Outlook 98 and Schedule +.  This will get Outlook and Schedule + in
sync, we hope.

2.  Sync Schedule + and the HP200.  At this point the HP200 and Schedule +
are in sync.  All changes from Schedule + have been applied to the HP200 and
all changes from the HP200 have been applied to Schedule +.

3.  Sync Outlook 98 and Schedule + again.  At this point your calendar,
contact lists and task lists should all match between the HP200 and Outlook.

The problem with this is the three step process, I still want a single step
process but at least this works.  I have not tried this with other PIM's,
but it appears to work OK with the Microsoft products.  I still can't see
giving up my HP200LX for a CE based palmtop, they are just too big, too
heavy, relatively short battery life and to costly.  If a 16MB CE based unit
costs almost $1000.00, and given the relatively limited market, one could
surmise that a 64MB CE based unit would be well over $2,000.00 so the
question becomes WHY!  Just one more instance of the Redmondians taking over
the computing world and dictating what we all should like.

HP200 forever!!

Can anyone tell me the expected lifespan of the backup battery? I've had

I just tried Norton Commander v5.0 on my 200LX.  It really
made my day!  Just like when I "found" Zip file transfer
utility a few months back.

With NC 5.0 on my 200LX and my desktop I can:
+ synchronize between 2 directories (i.e. local & remote);
+ do housekeeping on my desktop with 200LX as the slave unit;
+ copy, move, delete, rename directories/files on 200LX better
than the built-in Filer.

NC v5.0 basic programs (nc.exe, ncmain.exe, nc.msg) takes up
250Kb diskspace.  It can also clone itself to another computer
as well.

If you're trying to save into your main or root DOS directory, shouldn't
that slash be the other way? Ie, "\save" instead of "/save".

Otherwise, when you do the 'save as', see if the dialogue box that pops up
('save the current file as') shows a legal disk drive (ie, C: or A: and not
D: ).

I've used an ACE 30/60 MB card on my 200LX for years!  I thought they
were only sold for use in a 200LX.  I've never had any problems nor
heard of any report of problems of the ACE flash cards and the 200LX.
What exactly have you heard?

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I have quite a few Megahertz X-Jack PCMCIA 14.4 modems (XJ1144) for
sale.  All are used, but have been tested with a 200LX and are verified
working.  Cosmetically good, except for light scratches from being
inserted and removed.  These are bare modems only and do not include any
documentation or software (not needed for a HPLX anyway). I also have a
few modems which are a little uglier, with excessive scratches or
"property of" stickers at a discount.

These modems are known to work well with the HPLX and have a low current
draw.  These work just as well as the "New in Box" XJ1144 modems that I
sold at $50 each several months ago.

I will provide a 30 day warranty and *FREE* shipping in the US.  I would
prefer to ship in the US only, but will consider other arrangements.

Cost is $25 for each modem including shipping in the US OR $25 for the
first modem and $20 for an additional "ugly" modem. If I run out of
"ugly" modems, I will ship the "pretty" ones for the same price.

If you are interested please email me direct and please do not respond
to the list.  Additional information at:

Thanks,

Stan

They are out of business.
I can't speak for the 80M card but I've used a 10M ACE card for 3 years
with absolutely no problems.

That is why I said _I_ ... it is entirely a matter of peronal choice... as
is the choice of devices.  I gave my HP620LX to a woman who works for me,
and she likes it just fine... I have found that I really dislike WinCE on
the handheld - even though I like WinNT and WinCE on the PalmPC.  Go
figure!

Goldmine?  I have to admit to not ever hearing of that one...

Someone else talked about the primitive Notes scheduling.  I don't know
about that.  I use Notes 4.6, and find the scheduling definitely works for
my needs.  We are leveraged heavily into Notes, and I have tended to push
people (typical early adopter) into using the scheduling to set up
meetings, etc.  I actually find Organizer a 'necessary evil', and would not
buy it if not required.  It seems fat and slow, most of all since it
doesn't get rid of the need to have Notes Client running for my mail.

I know some are interested, so I will keep updating as I
learn/fail/succeed... I am thinking about putting up a Notes sync web page
since I now have experience across Newton/Pilot/WinCE handheld/WinCE Palm &
hopefully HP200LX!

Unfortunately, I'm using it as a vt100 terminal, and the editor on the
other end is gonna be either pico, pine, vi, or emacs. Even if I exit out
of bcom, as long as I don't reboot, the cursors (even the dos one) have
disappeared. Highly frustrating. Is there some sort of exotic hack to
bring back the cursor? =)

Thanks again.

I found a bit of software called GARDOWND that is supposed to be a DOS

GPS unit. When I try to run the program from the DOS command line I am
rewarded with a "cannot execute" message. Yet when I execute it from the
filer - it works ... but since it is param driven it just coughs up the
param list. It also work when called from a batch file from the command
line.

What gives?

Does anyone know of a freeware program that will suck the tracks out of a
Garmin GPS into a text file????

Can someone who has bought and used one of these help clarify this?

Is this a complete set-up for a PC to be able to read a PCMCIA card?  Or
is it just a plug-in ISA interface card and would still need the
external unit to plug the PCMCIA card into?  I want to get a ST 33.6
modem and a 40 Meg flash card and this NECX item looks like it would
make backups a breeze.


Thanks for your help,

Hello all,

I would like to do BASIC programming on my 2MB HP200LX.  I have MS
QuickBASIC v4.5 left over from my DOS desktop, and I like to use it.
I can get QB45 to run on the HP200LX, but QB45 does not correctly access
the serial port, and I cannot redirect LPT outputs to the COM1 port.
Are there DOS variables or other settings to take care of this, or is it
a lost cause?

Thanks for your guidance & experience.

        Bob

As a rule, 18 months. I'd say your living on borrowed time. A change would be prudent.

I may have missed an earlier posting, but couldn't find anything in the
archive so...

I bought one of the readers, installed it, but could find the crdrdr.exe
file on my Win 95 CD-ROM or on the Microsoft site.

What software, drivers, etc do I need to make the card reader work with
Win95, particularly to allow hot swapping. And, where do I get it and at
what price?

Thanks for the help.

When you say sync, does this automatically remove files from the desktop
directory tree which you have erased from the HP?  Or do you have to
"clean up" manually to remove items from your desktop that you have
deleted from the hp?

Thanks, But 2.11a is the DOS version that will link with Act for the HP
1.0 which runs on the 95 but 2.11a WON't link with Act for HP 1.1.1 which
runs on the 100/200 LX

What some of us wnat is to find a copy of Windows version 2.04 which will
link with the Act for HP 1.1.1

Or find a way to link version 3 or 4 with Act for HP 1.1.1

What we'd really like is for Symantec to reales a new Act for HP that is
up to date.

Tired of uploading Pocket Quicken to Quicken98.  Since I don't use most of
the Qu98 functions anyway, I would like to try Qu 8.0 DOS.  Anybody not
using and willing to sell?  I have v6 DOS but need Scheduled transactions

Thanks.

If you are looking for a simple and convenient way of sending/receiving e-mail
on your 200LX, look into PALMTOP.COM.

This service uses your built in CC:MAIL application and is free.

The only downside is that an 800 number is not available, so you do have to pay
for the phone call.  However, the files are binary and connect time is short.

For more info go to:  http://www.palmtop.com

Subject:      Kensington Palmtop Wetsuit
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I highly recommend the Kensington Palmtop Wetsuit 2.0 for the 200LX.

As previously noted, this is a flexible thin neoprene zippered cover with nylon
on both sides.

Features:
  - Zippered outside pocket
  - Attaches to top and bottom of 200LX's case using self stick Velcro tabs
(provided)
  - Adds very little bulk or weight
  - Water/dirt resistant
  - Reasonable protection of your 200LX when dropped
  - Comes only in black
  - Easy access to left and right side ports/slots when zipper is open
  - Priced <$10

Possible improvements:
  - More colors
  - Add a belt loop

If you purchase one, I suggest that you buy a strip of self stick Velcro tape
and run it along the full length on the top and bottom of the case.  This holds
the cover on more securely and provides more stability when typing on a hard
flat surface.

Also, for the price, get two.  They can get dirty and you will have a spare
while washing the other.

Follow the links:
  Technology Products -> Computer Cases -> Palmtop Wetsuit

There are other sources where you might save $1 or $2, but I have delt with
Daytimer for the last 15 years without problems.

Hummm. Nothing like having the list down for a couple of days to make you
check other resources -- 8-)

Did an archive search in SUPER and found three hits - two questions and an
answer...

Turns out that you need to unload the AM and go to DOS - then everything
works OK.

If you have a Garmin GPS and would like near unlimited track log memory -
you should check out GARDOWND...

Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Okay, I've gotten LXTCP and LXPOP up and running, but am stuck
trying to get the Palmtop News Reader going.  Ths documents say
to edit PNR.CFG and place it into C:\_DAT, but there is no PNR.CFG
included in either the source or the binary distributions.  I
could guess at some settings, but it sounds as if there are
quite a number of them.  Could someone who has a copy of PNR.CFG
please e-mail it to me?

Thanks very much,

Cathy:

It used to come with versions of DOS.  For example, if you have an old
copy of DOS 5.0 (which is what the palmtop uses), check on the SUPPLEMENTAL
disk, I believe.  Now whether you can legally use it on your palmtop is
yet another issue.  I asked this question awhile back, and I think the
technical answer is that your HP license doesn't cover this extra software
not originally provided with the palmtop.  But if you separately own a
copy of DOS 5.0 that you otherwise aren't using on your desktop, I would
think you'd be covered.  I'm not a lawyer.

That's funny.  We have a used computer store here in Huntsville with
the same name!  I thought, although I haven't inquired, that it was a
strictly local business, not part of a chain.  Now I'll have to go ask!

Looks like re-packaged GeoWorks to me, used it for about a
year on an old 286, not bad, however in them days (5-6 years
ago) it had useless COMMS.

looks like they have updated with a TC/IP stack and web
browser, could envisage you might get it running on a 64Mb
200LX if you were determined.

Good to see someone trying to breathe life into the old 286
and 386's.

That depends on how often you try to use your plamtop with low main batteries.

It's good practice to replace the backup battery once a year whether it
needs it or not.
You don't want to get stuck somewhere with a low backup you can't replace
and then loose data.

Have a good Day,

Hi,

I started using it and kept track of my connection charges which were
anywhere from $.13 to $.25 per connection.  This is reasonably cheap as far
as I'm concerned.

This service also offers a permanent POP3/SMTP account for a one time fee
of $60.00.  I am still thinking about this one though.

I am not connected with palmtop.com in any way....just a curious user.

BTW: I think the builtin cc:Mail app is very nice.

Hi There,

If I have a device driver loaded in config.sys and I would like to load
this from autoexec.bat instead- how can I do this?

Is it possible to convert a device driver (xxx.sys) to a xxx.com file? Or
is there any other trick that will work fine?

I would highly appreciate a reply.

Thanks and Regards,

There are various programs that will attempt to load a device driver after
config.sys.  One of these is called CTLOAD.COM and can be found at the
Creative Labs FTP site.  I think I have one around here called DEVICE.COM.
I'll see if I can find it.  Be warned, though-- often they don't work, or
they do work but crash the machine.

If your considering a flash disk.
here's a thought.

Get a Simple 64MB ATA flash.
It seems to be the best (now).
at $329 or less, its $5.14/MB.
That cheeper than any other one.

...also at 64MB you'll be ready for the
64MB C: when you upgrade :)  You know
how it is when yor C: is bigger than yor
backup :>   If not, yor BU will always
ATTIC storage space.

Of course more is better but the 80MB at
$420 is $5.25/MB. Today Viking is $322
at 4.03/MB

Today I found Viking is $270 for 64MB.
that makes it $4.22/MB.  Hmmmmmmm
Can anyone beat that?

We also have a Computer Renaissance used computer store in the
Milwaukee, WI area, but I don't know if it's part of a chain.

Jorgen

Usually device drivers can only be loaded
from config.sys while some file files can
be load from both (as my FK).  As you know
config.sys is read first to set up sys params
after a point as when autoexec file is loaded
it can not influence the system area unless
it was loadd at the appropriate time.

As can be seen with foll reply:
"There are various programs that will attempt
to load a device driver after config.sys.
One of these is called CTLOAD.COM and can be
found at the Creative Labs FTP site.  I think
I have one around here called DEVICE.COM.
I'll see if I can find it.  Be warned, though
-- often they don't work, or they do work but
crash the machine."

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

This is a follow up to my earlier message.

I installed the NECX PCMCIA reader in my PC, and installed as well the
necessary drivers (carddrv.exe at least) from the Win95 CD-ROM

When I insert the card I hear the audible signal that the card was
installed OK, however, I cannot find a drive letter anywhere on the
computer for the PCMCIA card. The computer does recognize that the card is
there because when I click on the PCMCIA icon, it shows a card in socket 2
that must be stopped before removing.

Does anyone have any ideas?


Thanks

Alan

I used "sync" term as used by Norton Commander.  Sorry that it
confuses mailing list readers.

NC v5.0 is an "old" software (1995) so don't expect too much
"automation".  Basically, NC compares name & date of files in
2 directories and marks new & newer files in both directories.
Then with a press of a function key you can copy or move marked
files from one subdirectory to another.

I believe LapLink v5.0 can do the same operations.

The best part is probably the "cloning" command.  So if you
have serial (null modem) cable, you can "hook-up" your HP200LX
to any PC computer with serial port.

Cheers,
Sentot

When you say sync, does this automatically remove files from the desktop
directory tree which you have erased from the HP?  Or do you have to
"clean up" manually to remove items from your desktop that you have
deleted from the hp?

I got around the ACT 4.0 problem with my HP200, by keeping ACT3.0 on my
computer and trasfering a backup copy of 4.0 to 30. and then lining.
Its  a pain, but it works.

I don't see what the problem his here.  If you have the Pocket Quickem addin
available from Intuit, it works fine.  I have Quicken 98 and the addin for
Pocket Quicken and all works great.  There is an Icon on the quicken menu
bar after you install the addin and you just plug the Hp200 in, and click on
the icon and every thing works as Quicken designed it.  I purchased Pocket
Quicken Connect 2.2 from Intuit in May, installed it with my Quicken98 and
all works fine.  You may have to call them since I don't see it on the WEB
store but it is in the support section of www.intuit.com.

Try NC 4.0
The basic programmes (NC.exe NCMAIN.exe NC.INI & NC.CFG) only take up 210K
Not only can it sync like 5.0
It also uses com1 port to transfer data at 192K speed (one master & one
slave).
Moreover, when I include NC accessories I can do online zip/unzip, view 123
files, pcx, WP and dbf files. Also use its terminal like telnet and
compuserve login.
Execellent s/w. You should try.

I don't write DOS basic often, but as far as I know, may be you need to
write a low level com port access routine rather than using basic's routine.

I use the XJ1144 on my 200LX using Datacomm, NetTamer and WWW/LX and none
require any additional drivers, nor have I ever loaded any. Let me know what
program(s) you're having problems using the XJ1144 with. For Datacomm at
least, the Modem Init string on mine is just set to "&F M0", tho I think
"&F"  is all I used until recently. I now swap between the XJ1144 and a
pocketmodem so I need to switch the speaker off using the "M0".

You might need to add D:\CIC100 /GEN 1 to your autoexec.bat file.
Otherwise, no additional driver should be needed.

There's a program called zipray that uses a technique for viewing
compresses text files on the fly. It uses the zip program to uncompress
the file to <stdout> and then Van Buergs list program reads then. I
don't think that HV will read files that are piped to it but you may be
able to write a little program that let's you select a file to read,
uncompress to a temp area, read the file and delete or recompress(if
changes made) when done. This get's a lot more complicated if you have
to follow links to other files that are compressed.

     The book "Undocumented DOS" has a utility to load device drivers
from the command line.  I have seen similar utilities in the usual
repositories, but this on has source code and an explanation of inner
workings.  BTW, converting a *.SYS to a *.COM/*.EXE would load the
DOS environment if I understand correctly.  A bit inefficient.

I have a similar problem, however it runs the other direction.  I'm sure
some/most of the readers of the list (HPLX-L) are familiar with using a
Zip drive via a TransPC card, and as such are aware that the driver for
LPT1 support is loaded at the DOS prompt.  This requirement
(limitation?) of the TransPC card prevents loading Zip drivers in
CONFIG.SYS.  Does anyone know of a way (other than INSTALL) to get the
TransPC driver installed _before_ DOS, and therefore allowing the Zip
CONFIG.SYS level drivers to load?

You might check out diet. I haven't used it in some time, but as I recall,
you can compress the html files with diet. When you want to read them with
HV (or any other program) you launch diet as a TSR - which will then allow
you to read/view them. After you are done - unload the TSR.

I couldn't agree more. I currently use Intellisync and could also think of some
other features that could be added. Like a sync to Access or an interface to
programatically modified the data that is being transfered. I guess the ideal
solution would be for Puma to allow the x00LX user community access to their
source code but somehow I doubt that that will happen!

You don't need a driver for the ZIP drive. Run the guest
program on a machine that is already running. Guest
tests the hardware and selects a post-boot "driver" to
do the job. You may be able to only copy the one
you need to the LX.

By not being able to find the file do you mean that windows hardware
instllation failed when trying to find it or you were just looking
for it yourself? I have two of these cards under win95 (possibly only
osr2 and greater) and they both work with the drivers included with
windows. All I did was use the add new hardware and let it detect the
card and it did everything else.

This is a conplete self contained ISA board pcmcia adaptor. The slot
in a type IV slot that come through the back of your desktop computer
(through the ISA slot cover) with an ejector button just like every
other pcmcia slot. Win95 (possibly osr2 and above) has full support
for the adaptor.

Do you play Curtis Cameron's Freecell game for the LX?
If yes then I have a small challenge for you...

I think I can Win ANY game and I want you to prove me wrong.

Version 2.4 of Freecell added Numbered games and also tells you the
number of any Random game you play.  If you find a game that either
you can't win or you think very difficult then challenge me to give
it a try; I'm tired of all the easy ones.  I've won my last 280+ games
and my head has swelled to the point that I think I'm invincable (at
least in Freecell...).

Go on, challenge me; I dare ya...
Russ Brooks   :-)

ps- If you don't have v2.4 it's available on S.U.P.E.R.

=====

Norton Commander (NC) is the best file manager I've ever used.

I use NC v2.0 and 5.0 on my HP200LX.

NC v2.0 uses much less RAM than v4.0 or 5.0.  It runs easily under the HPLX
system manager.

One of NC v5.0's many great features is that it permits you to view the
contents of files within compressed .ZIP files.

I use NC v2.0 and NC v4.0 on my HP100LX since not all NC v5.0 features
function properly on the 100LX.

For NC lovers, there is an NC version for Win 95 and Win NT that works with
long filenames.

Folks,

If you could bear with me a bit I'd like to go back to
the discussion of ACT! for HP.

A number of us a trying to get it working.
Act 2.11 DOS will not connect and sych with Act for HP 1.1.1
It will sych with HP95LX ACT! 1.0 but 1.0 doesn't work on the 200lx

The readme says Act for Windows 2.03 or better to link with 1.1.1

Some folks have "understood" that only 2.03 - 2.08 will work.
Others have said 3.? will link with Act! for HP ver 1.1.1

Copies of Win_Act! 2x seem hard to find.
Several venders on the Net have Act! 3.x, Plus Symantec says the current
release of ACT! 4.x includes a copy of 3x. So one can
purchase a copy of 4.x and get 3x

So
#1 What does one do to get Win_ACT! 3x to sych with Act! for HP 1.1.1?

Or

#2 Does anyone know a way to get ACT! for HP 1.0 to run on a 200lx?

Hi to All on the List,

After four weeks of black-out, it is good to be able to send and to
receive e-mail messages with some certainty, thanks to the help of
several people, including Al Kind (he lives up to his name!) regarding
mail to this list.  I had been attempting to send messages during this
period but it now seems as if none got through, all thanks to a
hacker!  So this message is being sent as both a test and a warning.

Up to the (unlucky) 13th July, 1998, I was receiving and sending mail
on a special set-up via one of two computers connected to a Unix
system in our laboratory library.  This was very convenient and fast,
being outside our main network and intended mainly for browsing on the
Internet, though it meant transferring mail via floppy disk to a
personal laptop and then onto my Palmtop.  On the eve of the final of
the soccer World Cup the two computers crashed.  All that could be got
out of them was a cryptic message, so it was assumed at first that it
was the World Cup virus.  Eventually the experts worked out that this
was the co-incidental work of a Melbourne hacker.

Two weeks ago this person was arrested.  It transpires that he had hit
about 1300 Australian firms causing an enormous amount of damage.
Although forensic and other laboratory data were never at risk here,
the mail system that I used has now been placed inside our network.
Fortunately I had backed up most of my mail before the hacker struck
but as result of his selfish act I have been without HPLX and other
messages for 4 weeks.  I had not realised before this just how easy it
is for an expert hacker to cause so much damage.  I pass this on as a
warning.

BTW, the message you read from Al Kind on Wed, 5 Aug 1998 re methods
of subscribing to HPLX-L, may have been prompted by my woes.  Owing to
the aftermath of the hacker's attack, it has taken time to sort out
the mess and for a while any of my e-mail messages that did get out

Subject:      100LX Upgrade
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT

Hello Everyone,

As I said in an earlier message, mail from this List has not been
reaching me for the last month, so I have lost the thread of messages
regarding a possible update for the HP 100LX, which was topical just
before my system was sabotaged by a hacker.  I note in the first batch
of mail that I received today that rumours of larger upgrades for the
200LX are now in the air, so maybe there are still some users
interested in improving the good old 100LX.

In summary of the information from a month ago, it had been
established that upgrading the HP 100LX was technically possible but
difficult, with few people known to have the necessary skills or in
any event not keen to be involved commercially.  It did not look then
as if the matter might be taken further but one or two of us diehards
did not wish to let things end right there.  I then found a user in
Australia who seemed prepared to at least consider taking on the job
if the appropriate parts and instructions could be acquired.  However,
no-one had any idea of likely costs nor of the potential volume of
business.  It was at this stage that the hacker destroyed my e-mail
facilities and I lost track of things.

In order to take up the thread and make a start it is necessary to
gain some idea of just how many 100LX users would seriously consider
an upgrade, possibly to 32Mb of RAM, even if it cost somewhat more
than a similar upgrade for the 200LX.  Please give this serious
consideration because it is not likely that the subject will come up
again if the current surge of interest comes to nothing.  If it seems
that more than just a handful of 100LX users are interested, then I
shall pursue it to the next stage of looking into costs etc., as well
as trying to get a commitment from my contact to prepare an action
plan.

Perhaps at this stage those interested in upgading their 100LX could
indicate that interest together with any other relevant comments via
the Mailing List.  However, should anyone wish to contact me
personally, by all means do so.

Cheers!

Barry,

I'm sorry of my sabotaged reply.
Because my highest priority is 128MB now.

As far as I know, 100LX upgrade actually up to 17MB.
Case of 100LX, BNAK0 and BANK1 limits only 512kB each, I heard.
And BANK2 and BANK3 can handle at least 8MB each but I don't
know possibility of 32MB each.

If BANK2 and 3 handle 32MB each, that means 65MB 100LX!
Of course someone must write RAM disk driver.

# If I have 100LX for verification...

Best Regards,

It depends whether you want to do it just once, to transfer
information, or to shuffle back and forth on a regular basis. It can be
done via smart clips and comma delimited import/export for the former.
Intellisync will do it for you with more grace (but not synchronize)
for the latter application.

It happened to me, it was fixed by a new motherboard fitted by HP.
Expensive but it worked.  I suspect I'd damaged it by trying to use PC
cards >150mA in it, but it could just be I dropped it once too often.

Before you send it in it's worth trying that last chance of taking out
all the batteries for a week, and then trying again.  If that's still no
go then get it repaired.  At least you get a warranty with the repair !

Subject:      LXTCP Report

Well, with help from Rod Whitby and Mitch Hamm, I've gotten LXTCP
up and running.  In fact, I'm using PNR (with Memo) to write this
message, and will upload it with LXPOP.

Now that I'm over the hump it doesn't seem that it should have been
such a big deal.  I'm using a 2x 200LX and a Megahertz 14.4 PCMCIA
modem.

First I set up epppd.  At Mitch's suggestion I put the configuration
settings in pppd.cfg and simply invoke epppd.exe.  Wattcp.cfg is not
needed to get a PPP driver loaded, but the LXTCP apps use it.  So my
next step was to get wattcp.cfg configured.

Once that was done, I really only had to get LXPOP and PNR going.
For that I needed a suitably tailored pnr.cfg.  My stumbling block
was trying to run LXPOP from a DOS shell in SysMgr.  It didn't work
with 300k RAM, but it wasn't obvious that that was the problem.
Once I ran LXPOP within a MaxDos session, it ran fine.

All in all, I would say it is a nice way to go.  I particularly
like having an understanding of what my computer is doing.  My
configuration files follow.

Patrick,

What a GREAT program :¬) It was last distributed by Broderbund I think,
after having started life as a shareware product called "Instant Recall"
(if I remember correctly). You might find that on the net. Memorymate runs
beautifully on the palmtop by the way.

For those not familiar with it, Memorymate was a fast, free form text
database, capable of running as a TSR (though you did not have to).

If you want a _real_ challenge, turn off auto-play and don't remove any
cards until you have them all arranged in four piles of King->Ace.  Then
turn on auto-play and watch the cards fly!

I, too, was able to win every game playing the normal way.  However, once
I switched to playing this way, I only win about 70-75% of the games.  I
think they all still can be won, but I get frustrated and give up
eventually.

To turn off auto play, just run Freecell as follows:
freecell n

This is interesting...

I suspect that a port to a non-GUI platform is tough, but maybe there
are libraries that would make it feasible.  Or even (for those with
expanded LXs) running under Win 3.0 on the LX.

http://www.orl.co.uk/vnc/index.html

At least for those of you with discarded CE machines, it could provide a
use.

Programmers, please consider if you could make this work for us.

What if you ran the three programs as a single batch file? Actually, it
seems like you'd only need two:

1) GDBDUMP (from SUPER) to convert the .pdb to a comma-separated-variable
        text file (.csv)

2) CONVERT (from Simtel, CONVR803.zip) to convert the .csv file to .dbf

Neither programs require any interaction with the user, which is why you'd
better read the docs as they may not be obvious to use...but they lend
themselves well to making an automated batch file. Then, if you want a total
no-brainer, just invoke the batch file from an AppMgr icon.

Hello!  I'm relatively new to the HP200 arena, and was wondering if

I'm taking a trip to Seoul, S. Korea next week.  Anyone know of an ISP
with a local point-of-presence there?  I really just need access to my e-

Thanks.

I let the unit powerdown for 48  hours.  Took all of the batteries out
(yes, even the  3V lithium cell).   Pressed the "ON" key for 30 sec.   Then
after it had discharged for the 48 hours, put in a fresh set of alkaline
cells and reinstalled the 3V backup battery.  It "ate" the alkalines within
3 days.  It doesn't affect the 3V lithium (wonder why?).

So now it looks like either it gets repaired by HP or
Thaddeus.....OR.....it gets offered as spare parts to the high bidder.
What would someone be willing to offer for a  3 year old, 2meg HP200LX that
eats batteries?  Not saying that this owner would be willing to sell it,
but just in case they would like to.....what would be a good offer?

It happened to me, it was fixed by a new motherboard fitted by HP.
Expensive but it worked.  I suspect I'd damaged it by trying to use PC
cards >150mA in it, but it could just be I dropped it once too often.

Before you send it in it's worth trying that last chance of taking out
all the batteries for a week, and then trying again.  If that's still no
go then get it repaired.  At least you get a warranty with the repair !

It sounds as if enough people have seen this problem that there may a common
and "potentially" straightforward fix. I would be prepared to buy it for
parts in order to experiment in my copious(:<) spare time. Email me at
michev@ibm.net.

See also the WinCmd clone which I am using for YEARS. Great stuff and

all is there incl. ZIP browsing, creating and creation EXE headers with

Subject:      Getting Newton Keyboard to work with WP 5.1, ect.

I just catching up on my e-mail after being on vacation
and I found a message from someone who was having
problems getting his Newton keyboard to work with any
standard DOS word processing programs.

I haven't tried using my Newton Keyboard with those
programs yet (but I love the keyboard) but I have an
idea on working with those word processing programs.
I know in the back of the WordPerfect manual there
is an option to disable the keyboard driver that WP
uses to read the keyboard. Many DOS wordprocessor
programs made their own keyboard drivers because
the standard DOS drivers were too slow for fast
touch-typists on XT machines. Anyhow I know WP had
a command-line switch you would run when you started the program
which would disable their keyboard driver. I wouldn't
be very surprised if Microsoft had a similar driver
for their program, too. People often had to disable
these keyboard drivers because of conflicts with
keyboard TSRs. If you can't find the WP5.1 manual
to find this option just send me another e-mail and
I'll dig up an old WP manual to find the switch option.
I wish you luck. I was planning on upgrading my LX
so I could run WP on my LX.

I couldn't agree more. I currently use Intellisync and could also think of
some
other features that could be added. Like a sync to Access or an interface to
programatically modified the data that is being transfered. I guess the
ideal
solution would be for Puma to allow the x00LX user community access to their
source code but somehow I doubt that that will happen!

I am somewhat surprised that people are still promoting their own
megahertz x-jack 1144 modems at $25 dollars when they are available for
$10 each at resource concepts inc., Carrollton Texas
(www.resourcesales.com --> follow link for laptops). Their phone number is
972-245-5050.  They work fine with the 200 LX, and in previous discussion
they have an acceptable battery-drain rate.

I noticed a new brand of soft-skin PDA cases on my last trip to Staples
(item #757005968100). They are called "ergo gear lifesaver" electronic
organizer cover (company phone 1-800-888-3537) and are advertised to fit
the 200 LX, which they do.  They are neoprene with velcro pads to secure
the organizer and are almost identical to the kensington wet suit with the exception
that THEY HAVE AN ATTATCHED BELT LOOP, which seems to be an advantage, and
that the external pocket is non-zippered, which seems to be a disadvantage
as compared to the wetsuit. Price was $9.99.

Finally, stay tuned for a cost-effective means of connecting the LX to
another LX, to a desktop, or to the Newton Keyboard.  As soon as I get my
facts together, I will post them.

Subject:      WP 5.1, Special config. settings?

Hi All,

Still can't get WP5.1 to work in DOS on my 200LX (It locks up on the start
screen, w/ "*Please Wait*" in the lower left hand corner).  I remember I
used to have trouble with DOS-based computers, running WP, if I didn't have
enough "file handles" or something, specified in the start up files.

I've currently specified "buffers=30" and "files=50" in the config.sys, are
there any other "mandatory" items to make it work?

WP is loaded in my "G:" drive Ý32 MB portion of a Times2tech doublespeeded
and memory upgraded¨.

The only "odd" things I run is that I still use the memory portion of a
Smart FAX/Modem/Memory that requires Smart's "flashdriver" to access the
memory.  "MEM" reports that the largest executable program size is: 521,376.

TIA.

You may have noticed that a new TV ad for Microsoft's Internet
Explorer e-mail program uses the musical theme of the "Confutatis
Maledictis" from Mozart's Requiem. "Where do you want to go today?" is
the cheery line on the screen. Meanwhile, the chorus sings "Confutatis
maledictis, flammis acribus addictis," which means, "The damned and
accursed are convicted to flames of hell." (Shoptalk, 3 Aug 98)

After your rundown, did you reload your usual software?

If the LX is getting inadvertently powered up while you are
away, could one of the battery monitoring pgms produce a
log that contains clues?

I am new to the list, people mention that you can upgrade to 32M of RAM
internally.  I see you can buy a 32M Flash for $165.  How much is the
internal upgrade and where can it be found besides Thadius?  Marcan will do
a 4M upgrade for $70.  Thadius will charge $500 for an internal.  Can I do
this myself (with good soldering skills)?

Thanks for any input

Internal upgrades have the advantage of keeping your PCMCIA socket free
for other cards, using less power, and being faster.  They have the
disadvantage of being more expensive, and vulnerable to power loss.
Thaddeus and Times2 Tech both do the upgrades.  There may be other
companies in Japan, but I have no data on them, and most of them seem to
deal only with LX users who live in Japan.  There is now a 64MB internal
RAM upgrade.  If I recall, the internal upgrades cost about $499 for 32MB
and $799 for 64MB.  This includes a speed upgrade...

You are being judgemental and unfair. You know nothing about
the people involved, yet you are willing to smear their
reputation because of your addiction to a gadget, which you
probably do not even need. Very ugly indeed, beyond just
language differences...

Sorry, Frans! You have crossed a line of propriety. You owe an
apology.

I am a vendor in this market too. Your formula is a sure way

Try this: In Post/LX Main Screen, press F1. Then SEARCH for
NOFIDDLE. Here is what the documentation says: (this will save
you pressing the keys above <g>...)

----------

From: Help - Troubleshooting
Subject: System Manager and Serial Port

System Manager "fiddles around" with the serial port and makes
communication impossible for DOS communications programs under
System Manager. In order to fix that problem, a small utility
named NOFIDDLE.COM is included with POST/LX. Install that
utility in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file: add the command as the
*last* command before the line "100" or "200" (depending on
the LX model you use).

Note that NOFIDDLE only works together with POST/LX. It does
not help with other communication programs.

I have use a diskette before. The reason is that the material
is no going to leave marks on the palmtop case.

The idea is to squeeze the corner into the gap, then move it
slowly towards the closed area. The two sides of the case are
connected by a plastic pin in one side of the case, which fits
very tightly into a hole in the other part of the case.
Sliding the diskette in the open gap forces the two parts of
the case to separate.

Now, I admit that when I did it a few times, the case parts
flexed to the point that I believed they may break, and I
suppose it is possible, and may have happened, so you must be
very judicious and decide for yourself how much risk you are
willing to take in applying the force, I cannot tell you that.

Good luck!

duracells.  I went back to USA made ones and there was no prob. Duracell
assures there is no difference but the facts are different for me.

There is no visible difference ....except the made in section.

Hope this helps

Avi -- You are being thin skinned and are not communicating very well.  I
certainly agree with you that the people involved are of the first order, and
that we are very lucky indeed that they are working for us.  Considering the
size of the market, we are getting very favorable pricing.

That said, if you wish to criticize, please point out errors, and supply the
accurate information.  It is not likely that the person you were responding ot
spoke from huberous.  Clearly, he lacked information.

Better to teach a man to fish than to criticize him for begging.

Moderately Cordially,

Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day.  Teach a man to fish, and
he'll sit around drinking beer and eating sunflower seeds all day. :-)

first of all thanks for all  the responses and as I contribtion I will
share what and why I did it.

Most palmtops are to big to carry in your pocket, however often you need
telephone numbers or review of your agenda. for this purpose I bought
Rolodex (REX) a PCMCIA card with an LCD display which lets you review
most of your data, ofcourse you have to refresh it from time to time.
For the HP 320 and 620 you can just enter the card in its PCMCIA slot
and load all the date on the card which then easily fits in your shirt
pocket.

Other possibilty's to get data on to the card is a special serial device
with a PCMCIA slot or a portable running win 95 or 98 and a PCMCIA slot
(portable user's with NT, like me, can run the software but not use
their PCMCIA slot to load the data on the card)

My first project was getting the phone database on the card, thanks to
this group I will do that in future as follows:

1) Get my phone.pdb on my portable with the standard communication
package
2) wrote a batch file which first creates a comma seperated file and
then convert it to a dbf file
>gdbdump -n phone.pdb >phone.cvs
>convert phone.cvs /from ascii /to dbf /indef=phone.def
3) contents of PHONE.DEF:
c 30 Last_nam
c 13 bus_phon
c 13 Hom_phon
c 12 Alt_phon
c 12 Fax
c 15 Title
c 10 Category
c 15 Company
c 15 Street1
c 15 Street2
c 15 City
c 2  State
c 7  Zip
c 80 Notes

4) result is phone.dbf which is supported by many sync programs

next project will be to convert my agenda.

gdbdump :
Search the SUPER site http://www.palmtop.net/supernew.html and look for
"gdbdump".
convert:
Search the Simtel site at http://www.simtel.net/simtel.net/ and search
for "convr803".

//success and thanks again David

Hi Russell,

Well I read an article about this somewhere recently, which warned that
Duracell was a brand name, not a description of battery type. The
Duracell batteries made and sold in Belgium were ordinary carbon-zinc
types. Some dealers after a fast buck were buying the Belgium ones
cheaply in bulk and selling them as manganese types here in the UK, and
probably elsewhere.


Cheers

I see nothing here that resembles a waitfor/send script.  Is this doable
with this epppd, or must authentication be done with PAP/CHAP?

Clark, I'm really not sure--my experience in this area is pretty
limited.  Perhaps some of the more experienced group members will
respond.

Hi Tim,
I've been running WP51 for awhile, I have the same problem when
starting in a SC work area. Pressing ESC and Enter fixes the lockup and
it runs fine after that.
Under MaxDos the problem is not apparent on my system(2x 6meg), so the
problem may be your driver, no experience there.

I have one from PORT called a SureLink Digital Telephone Enabler 250 (part
number CMD0500)  It has an AC adapter AND two nine-volt batteries.  It works
great with either of my modems, and I have used it for the US Robotics
conference speakerphone, when the digital to analog adapter we bought for
that suffered a burned out AC adapter.
If you get a battery powered unit, it will be bigger, and with batteries
installed, it will be heavier.  What it does is really not that complicated.
It connects to the handset of the phone unit, to send the modem signal along
the same path your voice data travels.  It doesn't actually digitize
anything.  It only compensates for various voltage differences.  Some base
units send more power to the handset than others.  Some expect stronger
signals back from the handset.  The job of the device is to get the signal
boosted/reduced to what the modem can give/get so you get the best
connection possible.
With my device, which has four possible settings, came a list of the most
common types of digital phones, and the setting most likely to work with
each.  It isn't terribly complicated, and you can experiment with alternate
settings if you wish.

I'm considering consolidating my Internet activities on my
200LX.  To do so I will need a convertor on my desk at work
since our phone lines are digital.  So far I have seen ads
for two Konexx products (a $130 unit that uses two 9V batteries
and a $90 unit that requires AC) and something called a
"LineStein" (I'm *not* kidding :) for $120.  The latter also
requires AC and claims to "learn" various phone systems.

If anyone has experience with any of these converters, or
other systems, I would greatly appreciate hearing it.  My
work phone equipment is AT&T if that matters.

Thanks for any and all comments.

I just tried Symantec's site - no luck - in fact the major search
engines didn't find a  single hit.

I didn't look any further - I know TimeLine (Symantec project
manager of same vintage) landed in Corel Wordperfect 7 Pro Suite-
perhaps through Novel - so it may pay to try there too.

I got mine (Grandview 2.0) from a closeout software place several
years ago - they don't have any more.  I got a copy of Grandview
special edition bundled with Harvard Graphics in a lot I bought on
Ebay.  I'll look at the local computer swap meet  later this month
and let you know if I locate one.

As for suggestions where to look - online auctions - newsgroup
postings - thrift stores - yard sales - post WTB's on appropriate
newsgroups.   Good Luck.

This program is worth looking for.  It was the major competition of
Lotus Agenda in the early PIM field.  It doesn't do as much with
automatic assignment of categories, but it handles list type info
very well - it is a great outliner with the ability to assign
items to a category or date.   There are date, category, and document
views in addition to the outline view.  A spell checker is included.

I use Agenda, but also like Grandview's outline based format for some
information.

You can always call or write Mack to find out what he's working

There is no reason for this extreme response. People always complain
when new stuff comes out especially if they just bought the old and
didn't know about the new. Its a lack of communication.
Live with it.

I wonder if there is any way to add little comments to grabbed URL
lines in POST/LX. These normally get appended to HV.HOT list foe ease
of retrieval when in WWW/LX. However, the URLs are often long cryptic
lines and look completely meaningless. I want to be able to add small,
even 2 character, identifiers to these URLs.

I receive several email digests (news, professional, hobby) that
contain URLs of expanded stories; it gets confusing when many URLs are
added to HV.hot.

Does anyone know if it is possible to send printer codes from the

inserting a small file into a document. Just how does one send those
escape sequences?

I found an old dot-matrix printer, small enough for my application,
but uses nonstandard codes, needs some escape codes each time it has
been turned on.

Thanks in advance for any info.

OR........you could find that the product would be announced a year in
advance...

......that  the product would be delayed for several months because of
bugs...........

......when the product DID finally come out, it didn't work as
advertised..........

........your machine locked up at random intervals.............

........you had no choice on but to purchase this product but from one
source..........

.......and the company that was making the product was being federally
investigated for monopolistic business practices....


While I take issue with both sides of the memory upgrade of the HPLX......I
find that the product offered, does what is advertised and that the people
that are offering these upgrades have a generally good reputation.    We
should only be so lucky with other corporations in the computing business.
I am glad that we can have a reasonable discussion without resorting to
backstabbing and name calling.

As with many things......it's all a matter of perspective.  My perspective
is different than yours.  Doesn't make mine wrong, or yours right....just
different.

Add the following line to your config.sys:
Stacks=9,228

Also the first time that you run WP, you should run it in DOS outside of
the System Manager.

Note: After that you can run it from System Manager from a batch file.
Note: You must have maxdos installed.

MODE COM1:9600,n,8,1
maxdos wp

********

If it comes up, then you need to go into ÝSetup¨ and set the following:

Display = Compaq 640x400 Monochrome

Menu Options = (use normal and bold in these settings only)

also while in the Display options take a look around and set the other
setting to your likings.

Location of Files = (where you store your files)

The above setting should get you going.

BTW: If none of the above works drop me a line and we'll try some thing
else. (:-)

Wow.

ESC; then Enter works!

It's a great work around.

Wonder why I have to use it though...

I'm not running SC ÝI've tried to install both it and MAXDOS in the past and
just have had bad luck (system's been wiped since then ... shouldn't be any
residual files...).

The Extra "Stacks" command, hasn't helped yet (I have rebooted).

I possibly should've mentioned that I've loaded it on my "G:" drive Ýthe
Times2tech expansion}, if I didn't mention it before...

Luckily I remember where the F3 key is -- I used to live and die by WP5.1,
now I'm having 'dain-brammage' trying to remember the commands!

Thanks for all the help so far!

 ACT 4.0x seems to be the problem. You used the HP with act 2x and 3x
I assume there was some compelling reason to upgrade to 4x if it
causes problems?

I was wonder if you could share those reasons?  Also if you could describe
HOW you were able to get the HP95ACT 1.1.1 to work with Win-ACT!3x?

ÝI'm the LXTCP author.¨

You have the choice.  There is a special version of epppd which does
PAP/CHAP, and a smaller memory version which does not.

My personal chat script has to deal with a corporate firewall and a
two-factor authentication system which requires a number from a
hand-held device (the number changes every minute).

See the chat.man file in the dosppp distribution (available from a
link on my LXTCP page on my web site listed below) for more
information.

Mack and fellow LXers:

I received my souped up 32 meg double speed palmtop today.  Wow is it fast.
And the space is great!

I notice that coventional RAM is, of course, still at a premium.  Even a bit
more (very slightly) than before because of the drivers.

Can anyone suggest how I can best maximize the RAM I have?  I guess if I
loaded the EMM drivers and were able to load the OS in high memory that
would help, but I don't think I can do that with MS-DOS 5 on a 80186, right?
What OS could I use and has anyone done it?  Any other suggestions?

I also use MAXDOS.  can anyone tell me the optimum settings for this
(recognizing that I now have a fast drive with lots of space and I now can
have EMS pages).

Thanks in advance.

Subject:      ATA Viking Flashdisk
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I ordered my 48MB Flash disk from Bernie Torbik at Shore Systems and have been
very happy with it. By (a) having enough room to run the disk uncompressed and
(b) shifting to a more modern card, I have improved performance by about 400%,
which I am quite happy with. I'll summarize my results as follows:

All test were completed with the machine connected to an AC adapter to make the
playing field even. The HP-200 is doublespeeded, the HP-100 is normal clock
speed. All times are in seconds to read and write 13 files consisting of a
total of about 140K, along with creating a directory for them, and then
deleting the files and directory, repeated 6 times:

HP UN: 10MB Flashdisk HP part 1013A from SunDisk, without Stacker
HP STK: 10MB Flashdisk HP part 1013A from SunDisk, with Stacker 3.0
Viking: Viking 48MB ATA Flashcard

          HP STK   HP UN     Viking
HP-200x2  92       45        18
HP-100x1  129      53        ** not usable in HP-100 **

As you can see, about a 4 times increase in the speed of the disk. Now it may
not hold a candle to a 32MB internal drive in terms of speed, but I can back it
up directly onto my laptop with PCMCIA card, and it is for me fast enough. And
at $194 for 48MB, it is hard to beat for cost.

Now to do my best at filling it!

Brian

Ed:

Using other programs to decompress HTML files, and feed them
to HV would work. Example: Call this view.bat:

 pkunzip %1.zip
 hv %1.htm

and you can call this batch file like so:

 view comphtml

assuming the compressed html file is called "comphtml.zip" and
it compresses "coomphtml.htm".

Thanks for the idea you proposed!

Maybe HV will even take a piped file? like

 HV < pkunzip comphtml

I dunno! Worth playing with...

Indeed there is the TSR mode of Diet. Unfortunately, I think
this clashed with HV for some reason and managed to freeze a
machine, I believe it was reported.

> I am looking for a utility which converts straigt from a *.pdb file to =

Use the clip facility in your gdb file! create a clip where
each field is enclosed by a double quote ("), and separated
from the next field by a comma, like so:

 "fielda","fieldb","fieldc"

Then write this file via Menu File Print and use the clip
name, write to a file.

Now you have what is known as a "CDF" Comma Delimited File, or
CSV - comma separated values. All decent database applications
can import this and save as a dbf.

Three items of note:

1. If you have double quotes in any field in your database,
change them to single quote.

2. Add a line to the file, in the beginning using any good
Editor (PE will work fine), with a record that contains the
names of all the fields, without the quotes, but with the
commas. Like so:

fielda,fieldb,fieldc
"abc","152.3","morris"

3. Some database systems will perceive a comma-delimited field
which is numeric but with no quotes as a numeric item, so in the
example here,

fielda,fieldb,fieldc
"abc",152.3,"morris"

152.3 will be put into a numeric field in the dbf.

Good luck.

I recently purchased a Creative Modem Blaster 14.4 modem for $14.99 from
Fry's.  The box is labeled DSI Scout w/ a Creative sticker added ( I
think Creative recently bought DSI).  The box specifies Operating Power
550mw, Sleep 15mw, and Stop 1mw.  Converting at 5V yields, I believe,
Operating Power 110ma, Sleep 30ma and Stop 0.2ma.

It doesn't have the nice X-jack of Megahertz, but it works fine, and it
may be the lowest power requirement I've seen.  The 350ma listed in the
Palmtop Catalog must be a typo.

Subject:      flexible 200LX serial connections
Comments: cc: Byran Boardman <Aware@aw-el.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Here is my approach to connecting to the 200LX's serial port.

A very flexible and cost-effective approach to providing serial access to
the 200 lx can be achieved by bying a cable made by aware electronics (see
WWW.AW-EL.COM) which has the 200 lx plug on 1 end and a standard 6-pin
modular phone connector on the other.  They also sell a pair of RS232
adapters (including a 6 foot extension cord) which will let you attach the
modular plug to the 9 or 25 pin serial port of your desktop/laptop, which
then is functionally equivalent to the cables available elsewhere.  To
allow 2 palmtops to talk to each other, if you want a hard-wired
connection and do not want to use IR, you can buy 2 of their cables and a
6 pin in-line "null" coupler that they will make up. You can also crimp a
6-pin modular adapter onto the end of a newton keyboard cable (difficult,
but quite doable), which can then connect to the aware cable using a
generic in-line 6-pin coupler such as the one available from Radio Shack
for $2.50.  If one were adventurous, he or she could mount a 6-pin female
connector on the newton keyboard for direct plugging-in.  The wiring
arrangement can be obtained from AWARE and free drivers are available for
the keyboard on the WWW.

The advantage of this method is that one cable can serve all the serial
needs, by terminating in a more-standard modular connector which in turn
can connect to anything.

Prices (contact vendor for definitive pricing):

3' LX-to-modular cable          Aware electronics       $25
modular-to-RS232 adapters
with 6' extension cord          Aware                   $14
mod to mod 6 pin coupler        Radio Shack             $3.49
null mod to mod 6 pin coupler   Aware                   ?
newton keyboard                 various                 ~$80
10-pk 6pin connectors           Radio Shack             $3.99

The intended product that AWARE electronics makes which uses the cable is
a nifty serial-port geiger counter the size of a pack of cards, which I
have extensively used for a research project. The geiger counter can be
interfaced with the 200 lx using this cable and run by very small dos
programs provided, with long battery life, or can be attached to a regular
desk or laptop.  If interested, check out the aware electronics web site
(www.aw-el.com).  They also make a wonderful graphing program (Aw-graph)
which runs under dos and is quite tiny. I have copied this letter to Bryan
Boardman, who runs the company, so his email address is available for
inquiries.

I hope this approach is useful to others,


Lionel

Subject:      wish for software
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Fellow HP users,

A while ago there was a discussion about software wishes. I would like to
see a stop-watch/timing gate running from the infra-red port. In practice,
I imagine a set-up with the IR beam pointing into a mirror or reflector
(like a bicycle reflector), with the software set up to start a clock when
the beam is broken for more than (say) 1/10th of a second, and stopped when
the beam is broken a second time. There may need to be a little monitoring
utility to help initially align the beam (ie. that tells you when the
reflected signal is falling back onto the IR receiver).

I have no DOS programming skills, so am unable to do this myself, but I
imagine this would be fairly basic for an experienced programmer, and that
it would be useful for things like lap times, reaction times etc.

Just an idea,

Doric Swain.

This would yes be really cool.  Two problems as I see them, though.  One,
the IR transmitter does not project very far.  Something like less than
half a metre.  Two, it doesn't project a beam at all, but more like a desk
lamp, it radiates a cone of infrared light...

Subject:      Newton Keyboard Driver Update
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

The current version of the Hplx Newton Keyboard Driver (at least the one I've
got) hangs when used with the upgraded Hplx whenever I try to switch sysapps
with the apple key. Switching between sysapps on the hplx itself is not a
problem, but every once in a while, I'd hit these keys when I'm trying to hit
the mapped function keys instead (i know, clumsy me), and the darn thing hangs.
I remember reading somewhere that Mack Baguette was looking into fixing the
driver. Any news of an update, anyone? Mack, if you are listening in, are you
really working on this? Any info would be much appreciated ....
Thanks.

So far I have not seen a solution where you can view compressed HTML
files on the 200LX. But you could solve the problem in an easy way.
Use PNS200 together with Z-RAY and then create a batch file
which will start when you in Filer highlight a zip file with your HTML
files and when you press Enter you will be able to see which HTML files =
are
in your zip file. Then press Space (Z-Ray will then uncompress the file
you have choosed). Then the next line in your batch file opens up the
uncompressed HTML file using HV. After you close HV, the batch file =
deletes
the HTML file. Some extra keystokes are required, but you will be able to
view your files without manually delete uncompressed files after you have
view them. I have not tried this but should work and maybe there are even
better way so do it.

Regards,

Jorgen

I don't know anything about the people involved, that's true. However, I
know something about business ethics.
I'm a software and hardware developer myself. So are you. It is quite rude
to sell a customer version 2.00, and then a week after the customer
receives it, to release a version 3.00, without a reasonable upgrade policy
for the people who just bought version 2.00.

>reputation because of your addiction to a gadget, which you
>probably do not even need. Very ugly indeed, beyond just

It doesn't matter what I need. I'm a customer, willing to pay a lot of $
for something I like. If the 64Mb version would have been available a month
ago, I might have decided to buy it. And if Thaddeus would have phoned,
faxed, or mailed me with a statement like "We just received your order, but
we are almost ready to have a 64Mb model. Options: wait three weeks longer
and get the 64Mb version, or continue the 32Mb order" I would have had no
reason to complain.

Apart from this: Together with the new 32Mb palmtop I also ordered the
"Super Software Carousel", which was advertised as "available now!". I
STILL DON'T HAVE IT! I got instead a piece of paper telling me that it was
going to be shipped mid-late July, which apparently didn't happen.

That I order SC together with a 32Mb machine isn't a total coincidence: I
had some use for the combination of these two products.

Netto effect: I ordered something which still isn't complete, and can still
not be used as I intended. In the mean time, there is a new model
available, and I have not been offered a reasonable way of upgrading.

It appears to me that this is a valid reason to feel unhappy about the
whole situation.

It is like ordering a new car, and while still waiting for the wheels, a
new model becomes suddenly available.

>Sorry, Frans! You have crossed a line of propriety. You owe an

Sorry, but I feel that Thaddeus owes me an apology.

>I am a vendor in this market too. Your formula is a sure way
>to kill the vendors in this market. It is a loser for

Not at all. We are talking here about a market which has a great
"gadget-component" in it. This means that people are not too concerned
about the amount of money they have to pay. (There are simply no other
options). People are willing to pay, until the moment they feel that they
are not treated in a fair way. With the latter I mean not the prices, but:
a) informing the people about delays in shipments, b) informing the people
about new versions of the stuff they just ordered, c) don't try how many
times people are willing to pay yet again for an upgrade. If this is not
going to change, *this* is going to kill the market. If customers are
treated in a different way, I'm willing as before to pay large amounts of
$, which will keep the market alive. And I have seen enough replies to be
convinced that I'm not standing alone in this opinion.


I'm open for any further discussion on this subject.

Frans

You comment that the new ATA Viking Flash Card will not work in your 100lx.  I
have good news.  If you are able to get ahold of the Ace driver, acecard,com,
and add it to your root directory, and add the line
                    device = acecard.com/sdp

to your config.sys file, I am confident that the 100lx will recognize the
card.

I hope that helps.

Mikhail, the HV.HOT entries are two liners, and when you add

Does anyone have any experience with the Flash memory cards that are

reasonable?

And now for something completely different...

Due to a recent disaster (no, not my HP, thank goodness!), I don't
have a lot of my old list archives.  Which Ethernet adapters will
work on the 200LX, where is a good place to get one, and about how
much?

Thanks.

Are you speaking of the Simple Tech high-capacity cards?  If so, they're
great.  I've been using a 160MB card for a few months now, and it's just
fantastic.  The only trouble is that with a card of this capacity, it
takes the cardBios client in the 200LX 2-3 seconds to recognize the card
when you insert it.

It's great power and speedwise.  And capacity-wise, too!  :)

I need advice. I have a mailing list digest that I have been reading

Has anyone found a better solution for handling digests? Wouldn't it be
nice if POST/LX had some native support for this? :)

All this talk about memory upgrades is nice, but someone tell me why "we"
(read as someone who knows how) can't do a processor upgrade too? (not just
clock speed)
Is this not possible. Let's design a new motherboard with the same form
factor but with a faster chip set.

Let me hear from some of you who know the real pros and cons, I'm just
wishing.

Sorry to bother the whole list, but I'm considering getting a Nokia datacard
for use in my HP200lx.

I'm just looking for some personal experiences.

How well does it work?

How do you do SMS with it?

My 700lx has a SMS program which works nice.  How does it compare with just
the data card?

How is battery life with it?

If you have the manual for it, specifically what is the AT command to force
the fax mode to class one instead of class three?

Now I will be using it with the Nokia 2190.  I may switch to the 6190.  Can
I simply get a new cable to connect the new phone?

In general do you like the card?

Thanks.

It only appears to lock up - mine does the same. I discovered that by
pressing the down arrow key briefly but firmly WP will move on and open to a
blank screen apart from the status info on the bottom right of the screen.

Good luck. Crombie Redd

Glad it worked, I don't know why either, but it's hard to argue with a
successful workaround. MAXDOS is well worth the trouble it takes to
setup, I run HDM under it and have no problems with memory. I don't
remember to many problems with setup, and if I can do it it shouldn't
be that hard for you smarter folks. Let me know if you still have
problems, I'll try to remember how I did it.

I found with remote commander, I could control my TV set from several
metres away - and also bounce it off walls... the mirror would reflect
better than my walls, one would think <g>

But the path back to the IR port detects only a small part of that cone,
dispite what may be significant spill-over: a beam, in effect.

Agreed that it would be cool. But I've got this picture of it being used
for a milkbar door ... and someone making off with the lx!

Hi,

Instead of getting a datacard, you can look at the data cable for Nokia. It
costs much less, draws only power from serial port and this cable is
supposed to connect the Nokia GSM phone to a laptop serial port. (I haven't
tried it though)

I believe the newer Nokia GSMs has a sort of built-in data/dax modem so you
only need the cable to access it via a laptop. The software is Windows based
....

Steve,

Here's a copy of my posting on REX Rumor Central from 8/10/98:
There is currently no REX/TrueSync synchronization solution for the HP
200LX, and there are no plans to develop a TrueSync solution for REX on the
200LX's proprietary operating environment.
You might know that Starfish has developed an exclusive
TrueSync solution for the REX for the HP 360LX and 620LX CE
2.0 models, yet it appears your model cannot be upgraded to
CE 2.0 due to the processor requirements.  For more
information, you might want to browse

This may be a good way to keep compressed files on the palmtop

ROFL.  Let me get this straight.  They have a solution... for Windows CE
2.0... but don't want to develop for a "proprietary operating
environment."  That's good for a few laughs... before we MARCH TO THEIR
HEADQUARTERS WITH PITCHFORKS AND TORCHES!

Yes, that is another way to do it, true enough.

As Ed Padin pointed out, these solutions work for a single
HTML document. If there are links from that one to another
document, these solutions do not work anymore.

I just hope no one asks that HV be modified to unzip HTML
documents <VBG>...

Frans:

First I want to state in public that I have a deep admiration
for you, your achievements and your opinions, even if I
cannot possibly agree with your opinions. Yesterday I
recommended in a discussion your product to a company that is
looking for just this type of software for their LAN
implementation. But I did not tell them I strongly disagree
with your opinions! ;-)

Here is the netto of this, as you say:

Mach developed something, and you felt that for him to not
tell you this ahead of your purchase of a 32MB from Thaddeus
was unconscionable.

I think you owe an apology to Mack, not Thaddeus, who is
simply a reseller, not the developer of the 64MB machine.

Dragging ethics into this is irrelevant. There is no ethical
issue involved. Both machines 32MB and 64MB are continuing to
be sold. The price has not changed because of the
introduction. The warranty is still in force. There is a
market for both machines. Support continues for both machines.

If you suffered some damage or loss because of the
introduction, other than the bruise to the ego for having
guessed wrong when to buy, then maybe ethics could enter.

You say they should have told you. You avoid answering the
question where to draw the line, because it is not comfortable
for you to answer it. Do you tell all customers who purchased
within the last week? The last month? the last 24 months?

I know, and you know, that your product is NOT pre-announced
until it is ready for sale. Why do you apply a different
standard to Thaddeus? (I _did_ tell the company's
representative to ask about the upgrade policy offered for
_your_ product, which I recommended yesterday!)

At most you should be able to ask the vendor to allow an
exchange. Did you ask them for it?

We instituted a policy in April 1998 that provided purchasers
of WWW/LX Plus a free upgrade if they purchased in 1998,
because we felt that was a reasonable way to give customers
the "warning" you so desire, without having to discuss in
public out plans ahead of time.

But Thaddeus is another company, and they make their own
policies. You, as a customer, could easily write to Hal
Goldstein (hal_goldstein@thaddeus.com) and discuss it. My
experience with Hal as a dealer for me, and as a vendor, and a
person I deal with on several items, is that he is a
reasonable person, with a good sense for what is the right
thing to do. Try him!

Instead, you chose to attack Mack for developing something and
not telling you. For that I believe you owe an apology to
Mack.

I'll be delighted to continue this with you, if you really
think there is anything else to say, in private email, as time
permits, but not on the public venue. It is a waste of
bandwidth anymore. (Besides, we have a person(?) here who gets
yawny and bored when anything more than simple English is
written - so let's not strain his brains! ;-) ...)

According to my wife, I don't have a brain.  That's why I have a 200LX.

Subject:      Printer Codes in Memo
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

On 12 Aug  Mikhail Epelbaum <mepelbaum@ATTCANADA.NET> asked about: printer
codes in Memo application


This may have been answered already, but in case it has not, the answer is yes,
it is possible and easy IF you know what codes you need.  Put the codes right
in the body of your text, wherever you need them.

On the 100LX or 200LX, generate the escape character by pushing <shift>-<escape
key>.  That should give you the left arrow escape symbol in the main memo
screen.  Then just add the rest of the code, remembering that the last
character in the string should be an upper case letter.

Some "catches:"  The printer should accept the codes rather than print them,
but memo will count the characters in the escape sequence in the maximum
characters per line for determining where to insert a return.  Therefore, if
you have your line length set for 80, and you have a 10 character escape code,
you can add only 70 "real" characters to the line.  The work around is to put
the escape code on a line by itself.  So, set your top margin for one line
higher (lower number, higher position) than normal, put the escape code on the
top line and follow it with a carrIage return.  If you find a need for escape
codes in the middle of your text (to change type styles, etc.), often it is
possible to put the escape code on the blank line between paragraphs to avoid
"consuming" space for "real" text.

Another alternative is putting escape sequences in the initialization string
box just before you print (menu, file, print, setup).  However, you need
another "trick" here, since you can't use the <shift>-<escape> key sequence to
put a genuine escape character in the initialization or termination string box.
Compose your escape sequence, or sequences, in the main memo screen where the
<shif>-<escape> does work, highlight the results and cut or copy it; go to the
initialization string box and paste.

Experiment sending material to your printer with the LX set in the main setup
menu (control-filer, F3) for HP LaserJet and for IBM ProPrinter.  In printing
to an HP 500 DeskJet I find that while the filer's bold and underline do not
work if I'm set to the IBM printer in setup, I can get far more symbols and
characters to print if the LX thinks it is sending code to an IBM.  And, you
can set the printer to bold and underline with escape sequences using
<shift>-<escape>, just doesn't look as pretty on the screen!

Now, it is a pain to manually key in those escape sequences every time you
compose something in memo.  If all you need is an initialization string,
pasting the code to the initialization box as described above will solve the
problem.  The LX should retain that string for you between sessions.  But, if
you want different strings for different types of documents (letters, reports,
etc.) then you'll want to put the code in the body of your documents and leave
the initialization string box empty.

To do that, use a set of macros (one for each string).  BUT, you can't key the
escape symbol into a macro edit screen, and you can't paste it there either.
It may look like it pastes in, but when you close the screen, the LX changes it
and makes it ineffective.  Here's how you beat that:  First, open the edit
screen and key in the label you want on the macro, then close the edit screen
and exit the macros.  In memo start macro recording (shift, Fn, F<#>) and then
key in the escape sequence starting with <shift>-<escape>.  When finished, do
(shift, Fn, F<#>) again to stop recording.  If you make a mistake, you have to
do it all over again.  It is OK to open the main macro screen after you do
this, BUT DO NOT PUNCH IN TO THE EDIT SCREEN FOR THAT MACRO.  If you do, the LX
"normalizes" the escape symbol and steals its "power."  Check your work instead
by playing the macro back in memo.

Once I'm happy with my results, I write protect that macro set (attrib +r) so I
won't accidentally open the macro edit and then stupidly punch "save."

Hope this is clear; if not, feel free to email me directly for clarification.

Nope, the Nokia's require a piece of software called the Celluar Data Suite
which
runs under WIN95 only (although there is a version under development for
the Psion5)

Actually, you can send SMS with just the cable, but if you wish to do Data
as well
it ain't going to work.

I also looked at the SH888 Ericsson phone, nice but is only IRDA compatible
(to the
extent that even if you use the serial cable supplied you still need to
have IRDA
drivers loaded, so no go with the HP200LX).

The only one which you can plug straight in is the GS18 Ericsson, a little
old but
might do the job.


I'd be inclined to go for a Psion gold card since they can also double as a
      landline


(expensive, but nice)





This is all for GSM phones, anything else all bets are off <grin>...


Hope this helps.

All,

        Please forgive the full quote below but I feel it is relevant to the
subject.
        I know from personal experience, if one were to ask Mack if something
new was in the works, you would be advised and given the opportunity to
purchase the new product.  Given my prior dealings with Thaddeus, I
would expect the same from them.  Please consider that Thaddeus is a
dealer, not a manufacture.  Their liabilities are different than a
manufacture.  A manufacture may have an extra bit of latitude in
introducing a new product that a dealer cannot prudently afford and
continue their relationship with the manufacture.  Both of the parties
involved have an excellent record and support our beloved palmtop.  May
I suggest that we drop this thread out of respect for those that choose
to support the 200LX, they have earned and deserve that respect.

"Proprietary operating environment"- sure... :) Actually it shouldn't be
that difficult to make a sync program for the 200LX and REX. But frankly
speaking I personally don't see what's the point with having a REX and
200LX. I always have my 200LX with me and it's Very reliable- so I =

Hold the pitchforks! I know someone who knows Phillipe Kahn (Starfish's CEO)
and have asked him to appeal directly to the top on our behalf. Probably won't
do any good, but it might get Tom O'Brien a lesson in proprietary operating
systems. :)

Because the processor isn't a separate item. In is in one chip, together
with all the other things (interrupt controller, PCMCIA interface, serial
ports, etc.).

If speed is a concern, it might be possible to "overclock" the chip. In the
old days, I often soldered a crystal with a higher frequency on a PC
motherboard. 10 to 20% often still works reliable. You might get even more
out of the chip. Remember: the speed which is guaranteed (the 16MHz) is
guaranteed because it works in *all* chips, from the worst to the best,
over the entire temperature range. Since there is some deviation in the
individual chips, you might be lucky and have one which accepts a much
higher speed. But even then, you won't even get close to 386 performance.
For me, this double speed is just exactly what I need. It removes the
traces of sluginess in the PIM and various other applications. No matter
how much faster the machine is, I'm not going to type faster. If it is able
to keep track of my typing speed, it is basically fast enough. Just my two
cents...

Once upon a time everything was groovy. A small sweet company used
WordPerfect and Lotus for all their business, which meant syncing a palmtop
was a snap, because you could work on all your files directly on the
palmtop.

Then the Evil Corporate did a buyout and entered the picture. They decided
that Office 97 made a good torture device and so inflicted it upon all their
offices. Actually Office isn't that bad (for uber-laptop at work), but for a
palmtop it's a killer.

This leaves the hero (yours truly) stuck out in the cold. I have until the
end of the year, then I must change to Office97. If I have to convert every
document I have back and forth through different formats I'll never get
anything done. Evil Corporate has suggested I change to a CE device, which
only makes me that much more depressed.

Does anyone have a simple solution, or must I be "dumb-downed" to CE?

My $0.02

If your company is mandating the use of Office97 and if you do a significant
amount of work using those native apps it might behoove you to get a CE
machine and forego the conversion hassles of the 200LX. Keep the 200 for
your personal stuff and for anything the CE can't handle.

The 2 palmtop approach might be clunky, but maybe it'll just be a temporary
transition while 1) CE catches up in functionality or 2) 200LX conversion
techniques to Office97 improves, tho I don't hold out a lot of hope for the
latter.

This way, you can just "play dumb" to your corporate masters <g>.

Even with a CE you will still have conversion of documents. The Pocket Word
in a CE is not compatible with Office 97 Word and must be converted. You can
do what I do and keep all documents in RTF format. Word reads it without
problem and the RTF-DOC (memo) program works. There is an occasional format
problem but overall it is pretty good.

Hi there,

today I tried to download the "Project Management Docs" from the
SUPER-Site, but it failed with the message:

How can I get this? I downloaded today the pjt2.exm  project-management-

the prog looks very good, but has japanese manual. Then I found out, that

Please give assistance, thanks in advance!

I would investigate the Psion 5 which is very nice (not quite as nice as
my 32 meg 200LX, but close).  IT has a 32 bit OS which is much better
than wince.

Hi Tim & list

I use my GSM nokia phone and 200LX for internet access a fair bit.  Right
now I am in Kunming China and am using my Australian based phone to access
the net.

From my personal experience there are a number of things to consider when
deciding on data via mobile phone.

GSM phones all apparently use a compression/sampling algorithm optimised for
voice. Some are so optimised to give maximum battery life that the DATA
throughput is choked.

The network you choose is a very important consideration.. GSM maximum data
speed is 9600. I travel a lot to different countries.  I found out the hard
way that my network "fixes" the speed on application for a data account.  I
was in Taiwan where dropouts at the time were frequent. (Iwanted to reduce
the speed to increase stability of the connection) The Data department are
extremely helpful if you know a little about what you are doing..They are
probably your best source of up to date info on current technology and what
will work best for you..

Nokia's data department was helpful also...

In answer to the questions above..

I like the card..I have had version I and now version II with the Nokia
2110E. The reason I went with this combo originally is that the Ericcson 288
had a data throughput of 2400 whilst Nokia was 9600. They were the two
recommended at the time for DATA on which I was primarily interested.

My version I card was rendered useless when the connector pins bent and were
crushed by me when I attached the cable one day.. Version II has a different
connector and is still good after nearly a year.

I havent used the SMS feature

Nokia has a web site that may answer about your specific cable questions..

I am using Battlog for the first time and have just had my Main Low warning
come up. Duracell Alkalines  First measure 2.72V  9.8 hours including 3.4
hours with Card Modem (Nokia Datacard) Present V 2.45  Lowest(During Modem
use) 2.17 V. Doublespeed 8M 200LX

The card worked "out of the box" and my init string is ATZ.

CPS with Nettamer is average 350cps with Highs of 750CPS.

I trust this info is of value to some.

BTW International access code in China is 00 if you want to add to your
World time DB. in your LX.

Frans,

I forwarded your comments to Hal Goldstein as they did not represent
the Hal I have known for some time. He is not currently a mailing list
member but will try to join later this weekend when he returns from
travel. I have no financial or other interest in Thaddeus except as a
customer.

Hi Frans. I think a 128M version requires a major software effort. At =
this
time we have no such plans.  Hardware-wise it is possible.


<<I don't know anything about the people involved, that's true. However, =
I
know something about business ethics.
I'm a software and hardware developer myself. So are you. It is quite =
rude
to sell a customer version 2.00, and then a week after the customer
receives it, to release a version 3.00, without a reasonable upgrade =
policy
for the people who just bought version 2.00.>>


As a consumer, I understand your frustration.  However, I don't think =
what
you are saying is necessarily the case. Introducing upgrades -- especially
hardware where the costs are great and inventory expensive -- has been a
tricky busines in this industry as long as I can remember.  At what date =
do
you tell all your customers, "don't buy this product, but wait for the =
next,"
or "if you wait two weeks, the price will drop".  If you give customers a =
one
month warning, the guy who buys the product 31 days in advance is naturall=
y
quite upset.


<<It doesn't matter what I need. I'm a customer, willing to pay a lot of =
$
for something I like. If the 64Mb version would have been available a =
month
ago, I might have decided to buy it. And if Thaddeus would have phoned,
faxed, or mailed me with a statement like "We just received your order, =
but
we are almost ready to have a 64Mb model. Options: wait three weeks =
longer
and get the 64Mb version, or continue the 32Mb order" I would have had no
reason to complain.>>

In fact after July 1 we told everyone who called or emailed in an order =
of
the 64 meg option.  We didn't do as thorough a job as we might have. (We
didn't start selling the product until Aug 1).

<<Apart from this: Together with the new 32Mb palmtop I also ordered the
"Super Software Carousel", which was advertised as "available now!". I
STILL DON'T HAVE IT! I got instead a piece of paper telling me that it =
was
going to be shipped mid-late July, which apparently didn't happen.

That I order SC together with a 32Mb machine isn't a total coincidence: I
had some use for the combination of these two products.>>

We finally started shipping yesterday.  I can only say I am sorry. It =
wasn't
due to lack of attention. It was due to another common failing in this
industry, poor time estimation.

Both Software Carousel and Super Software Carousel took about 4 times as
much time as we had planned. SC was supposed to be a simple minor upgrade =
of
an existing product. It proved not to be simple. (For example, just when =
we
thought we were done, out of nowhere, the "June 13, 1998" bug appeared.
People with SC couldn't reboot on June 13!).

However, that was our problem, not yours, and I apologize.

<<Netto effect: I ordered something which still isn't complete, and can =
still
not be used as I intended. In the mean time, there is a new model
available, and I have not been offered a reasonable way of upgrading.>>

Just so you know the 64 meg upgrade is not trivial.  It takes 30-45 =
minutes of
labor.  Also, I had no long term plan or knowledge of these
upgrades.  I didn't learn of the 64 meg upgrade until mid-June.  We
make a profit from people who do one upgrade, then the next, but it is =
not
nearly as profitable as you might think.  These are our best customers,
where much of our revenue comes, and we try to balance customer sensibilit=
y
and staying in business. I certainly did not devise a devious plan to =
come
up with upgrades every few months.

From a business point of view, for many reasons, I would probably be just =
as
well off, if there were only 8 meg, or only 8 meg and 32 meg upgrades.
Having more (and more expensive options) means tying up precious funds in
inventory, creating more complex processes, increasing marketing expenses,
and as in your case creating unhappy customers. From a pure business =
point
of view, I would prefer to just have 8 and 32 meg upgrades.

That is not to say that we are offering 64 meg because we are such good
guys.  It will be profitable. Our mission is in part to push the edge in
what can be done with the 200LX.  We believe in the long run that is good
for us and good for business.

<<It appears to me that this is a valid reason to feel unhappy about the
whole situation.>>

I agree.


<<Sorry, but I feel that Thaddeus owes me an apology.>>

Yes, we are sorry about the lateness of SSC and SC.  We are sorry if your
order came in after July 1 and we didn't notify you.  Anyone, who is in =
that
boat can take another $100 off the 32 to 64 meg upgrade cost, if you =
include
this email.  From the consumer side, I would guess that is still not
completely satisfactory, however, all things considered, hopefully it is =
an
acceptable compromise.


<<People are willing to pay, until the moment they feel that they
are not treated in a fair way. With the latter I mean not the prices, =
but:
a) informing the people about delays in shipments, b) informing the =
people
about new versions of the stuff they just ordered, c) don't try how many
times people are willing to pay yet again for an upgrade. If this is not
going to change, *this* is going to kill the market. If customers are
treated in a different way, I'm willing as before to pay large amounts of
$, which will keep the market alive. And I have seen enough replies to be
convinced that I'm not standing alone in this opinion.>>

We are very customer-service oriented. Hopefully, others here will agree,
we have a great staff who genuninely want to do right by the customer.
That is not to say we don't screw up.  We do. Also, we are very small. We
are 15 people who publish 2 magazines, and create and support a catalog =
of
palmtop products. I would love to have more resources, but the economics =
of
staying in business, and treating my existing people well means I have to
stay small.

We have always viewed ourselves in partnership with our customers. Our
customers generate many of PALMTOP PAPER and HANDHELD PC MAGAZINE articles=
.
Our customers generate many of the new Palmtop product ideas. Everyone at
my company uses a 200LX. We all like the product a lot.

Thank you for your patronage.

Glad to hear it.

The rex would be used by co-workers, employees, Supervisors, family
members. And so forth.  The idea is to be able to take someone else's rex
and sych it with my stuff.

Thank you Charles for the comprehensive explanation.

For my application, I will just make a small file, containing the two
codes I need, and a macro to print it as needed. The old Tandy printer
likes to print double spaced, if left to it's own choices. This is
back to the days before Epson format became standard.

I work in several locations, and have to constantly print reports, on
two copy paper. This is why such preoccupation with old small dot matrix
printers and ribbons. (I suppose not too many people find themselves
putzing around with reinking devices lately, but that's another
story...)

I notice that my 200LX has a peculiar problem: sometimes, characters
will not be echoed to the screen. For example. I might type "post", but
only "p st" appears. Despite the visual weirdness, the command will
still be executed properly. So far, this has been only a cosmetic
difficulty, but I am afraid it might be a symptom of something more
serious. Interestingly, this appears to be happening only in DOS, but
not in any applications. (Any missing letters here are the result of my
typing.)

This is my backup machine (and is still under warranty), the main one
having been sent for memory augmentation.

Any advice? Has anyone else experienced this sort of thing?

Subject:      Total Lotus solution on the palmtop / Y2000K tasks.

        Hello all,

    Even though I don't have a palmtop myself; I follow HPLX-L quite
    closely and wonder if there are some more things to do with Y2K.

    I know the following things for sure:

    -HP Corp. has made a public statement at least once that the
     DOS palmtop HP 200LX will remain in production until 2000.

    -HP lists the 200LX as Ready/Compliant on its webpage but

    -M$ admits MS-DOS 5.0 has (small?) problems with millenium

    -Detailed HP Y2K statement says, that for DOS palmtops those
     software, which get time directly from the hardware clock
     -thus bypassing the OS and BIOS- may/will cease to function.
     Could someone explain how/why/which SW will fail?

    -The work that Richard L. Dubs has done to port Minix to HPLX
     should be equally useful if we need to abandon the ROM-DOS 5.0
     and BOOT, say Caldera Opendos 7! (That's Y2K for sure.) Should
     a programmer seriously look into this item?

    -Seems like, the main weight of HP200LX software (may) lie in
     the products of Lotus Corp. I mean:

      1-2-3 v2.4: Total Compliance, with minuscule inconvenience.

      cc:Mail: I couldn't find any useful at Lotus site, as versions
         were listed by v4,5,6; not DOS/WIN/OS2. One please check!

      Agenda v2.x (not built-in): Many use this great SW, it's free
         from Lotus ftp site. Quote pending on Y2K comment. But it
         was discontinued, so they may not care.

      Freelance (not built-in): Believe it or not I have seen TWO
         palmtoppers (a 100LXer and a Sharp PC3100 fan) using this
         on handheld. Freelance does not do data processing, so it
         must be Compliant.

      I wonder if a new stategy to convince would-be HPLXers should
      use "Proven millenium Lotus software at your thumbs."

      BTW, seems like Lotus made 1-2-3 v2.x essentially free, as their
      ftp site has official patch to remove copy protection from 2.01
      disks - I consider this an invitition to a ...

      We could be happier if HPx00LX had IBM DOS vs. MS-DOS. Then it
      could declared be a total Lotus solution by now. But IBM DOS
      never made it into ROM-DOS format, I bet.

      And finally, are these of any use for you?

Regarding advancements in 200LX RAM upgrades...

You can not fault the vendors of RAM upgrades for the availability of larger
and larger capacities over short periods of time.

Some factors to keep in mind:

  - Manufacturers of these RAM chips do not specifically have the 200LX in
    mind when they develop these chips.  So there is some risk in trying to
    adapt them to the 200LX.

  - These guys are spending money on developing new products for the 200LX.
    Therefore, they need to maintain some kind of revenue stream to finance
    these developments.  If they kept on waiting until larger RAM capacities
    became available they would:
        1) never offer a product because they would just be waiting for the
           next best thing to come along
        2) never have the funds needed to properly develop products

If I have a DOS program running under MaxDOS, is there a way to swap back to AppManager or some other HP application?

Currently, if I have GoinPostal open, and an alarm goes off, I'm locked up solid (ctrl-shift-on need to reboot!)

Hopefully, I'm just doing something wrong, or haven't figured out the magic key to press.

There are other options.  Keep all documents in WordPerfect 5.1, or Word 5.0
or 5.5 for DOS.  Office will save in any of those.  It will also read them,
and will loose little or no formatting, up to and including tables.  You don't
have to spend any time converting documents -- other than remembering to
choose the correct "Save As" format on the big computer.  All three of those
programs work very well on the LX.

Cordially,

Comments: To: rhemery@POWERUP.COM.AU

Although there are more elaborate ways, the easiest way for me is the
following.

Move the .icn file to the same directory as the program.  If the program
name is hp.exe, rename the .icn file to hp.icn.

Then when you add it to system manager, the icon will show in you selection.

Good luck

Anyone that has an HP200  and a digital camera that uses the Fujitsu
chipset (check the web page below if you
aren't sure, I have a Nikon CP900) might be interested in knowing that
there is now a version of the
"CAME" program written by TsuruZoh Tachibanaya especially for the HP200
to control these cameras.
Read all about it on the web site, but the program lets you do just
about everything possible with computer
control of the camera; download pictures to the HP200, control the
camera settings, take pictures, and take
time-lapse.  This is REALLY neat. Start at this URL and follow the CAME
(turtle) program links.

Everyone who sent the acecarrd driver "in the blind" - Thank you. I will test
it out on the HP-100 and get the results back to the list. I will add my kudos
that this list is a great repository of knowledge and experience... in that
light:

A few painful lessons learned:

If you insert your Megahertz XJ1144 in upside down, it will go in quite nicely,
and will cause you HP to require a CTRL-LSHIFT-ON to recover, at which point
you won't even get a vote on the initialization of the RAM disk - sigh. I
normally don't screw around with the internal modem as I prefer not having to
adjust my setup and remove my flashdisk to download email, so I have an
external 14.4 modem I usually use. I am in the middle of moving, so I am
packing light and the external modem and requisite adapter didn't make the cut
- though I think in the future it will!

The good news is that with my HUGE (to me <g>) 48MB flashdisk I had backed up
my C drive just two days ago, at least for data. I will have to reload dosshell
from my laptop, and leave it on the Flashdisk. I didn't use to keep a copy on
the flashdisk because of room, but I need to "rethink my paradigm" (there's a
word that has certainly become overused) and keep everything on the A: drive. I
am also going to get a daily backup appointment going - no need to have lost
two days of data, after all.

Thanks again to all who gave me the info I needed.
Brian

I have NC v3.0 installed. Complete, it takes over 500K. I also have XTree

Did you try to run it outside of system manager?

Change to the windows directory and type win. But before hand make sure
that win.com was installed and is working. This can be checked in
filer, you should get a warning about not enough memory to run program
or some thing to that effect.

Looking forward to your reply.

No, I was not referring to Mack. From the discussion in this list, I
understand that Mack has developed the memory upgrade, and Thaddeus is
selling it. Anyway, it doesn't change much. Being a former subscriber of
the Palmtop paper, I got an ad from Thaddeus regarding the 32Mb model and
Software Carousel. Now, before my complete order is delivered, they offer a
64Mb version. Something feels wrong here, and that's why I made some
statements in this list (as a reply on someone else's message).

>I think you owe an apology to Mack, not Thaddeus, who is
>simply a reseller, not the developer of the 64MB machine.

If people got the impression that I was attacking Mack (English is not my
native language so I might have used the wrong words) I owe him an apology
indeed. Please consider this as an apology. I'm somehow in a similar
situation as Mack: I'm developing something, and being basically a
technician, I leave the marketing and selling to some other organisations.
And sometimes these marketroids do something that I feel is unethical.
Sometimes this is a reason for me to have some words with a certain
reseller. By no way I feel attacked personally if customers are unhappy
with certain experiences with one of my resellers.

As I said: there is some "gadget" element in this market. It is like buying
cars. There are two kinds of people: people who see a vehicle as a means to
get from A to B, and some people who love cars. Now, if someone from the
first category buys a car, he doesn't care at all if a week later the
manufacturer releases a new model. However, if a car freak buys a nice
top-of-the-line BMW, he might indeed get upset if a week later a new model
is introduced. For him, a car is more than just a means of transportation.
He has spent a large amount of money to buy the best-of-the-best in his
opinion. And before he even hasn't received all options, a new model is
introduced. He is upset, and some people will consider this as insane.
"Hey, it is just a car. You liked that car, you have it, so why complain?"

I'm in a similar position, like most of the readers of this list. We are
not the kind of people who buy a CASIO organiser, because we need to jot
down some phone numbers. We are not the people who see a computer just as a
tool. We have spend more than avarage to buy something we admire, because
of the technique, and we have an excuse to buy it because it is usefull as
well. Yes, and after a while, you decide for yourself that it is worth to
spend quite some money, because you want to have this "hot" top-of-the-line
model. And then, before your order is delivered completely, a new model is
released... Ok, some of you will say: "Hey, it is just a computer. It
works, and you are able to store your phone numbers. So why complain?". For
me however, the situation is different. I have witnessed the development of
the PC, I have made my business out of developing software (mainly DOS),
and I have a deep sentiment for these good old DOS-days. Business-wise, I
have to move on with Windoze, which has (in my opinion) no technical beauty
at all. But then, there is that wonderful Palmtop machine, which gives me a
good excuse to keep playing around with DOS. Because of my carreer, I have
a lot of knowledge about the inner workings of a DOS environment, and at
least this knowledge isn't going to be a waste of brain-space for the near
future, because of this Palmtop machine. That's why I bought this super
palmtop (after having had a "normal" model for three years) without any
concern about the prices. And that's why I'm a little unhappy that the
order is not yet even completed, and there is that even hotter model. :-(
>If you suffered some damage or loss because of the

>introduction, other than the bruise to the ego for having
>guessed wrong when to buy, then maybe ethics could enter.

See above. No damage, no loss. I could probably also store my appointments
and phone numbers in a simple PDA. I didn't choose a FIAT however, I have
choosen this top-of-the-line BMW, because I'm a freak.

This is no to me to judge. The HP200LX industry however should be aware
that they are not selling to people who want to have a tool, but selling to
people who are freaks. If there would have been a half-year period, I could
have lived with it. Maybe some others not. But then the reactions in this
list would have been different.

See above. I consider my product more as a tool, and not as a gadget.
Nobody buys my product because they want to have it as a gadget. People buy
it because they badly NEED it. Even then: our upgrade policy is that you
can freely upgrade (companies) during two years. Private buyers have a
lifetime upgrade. But then, it is no comparison, because this upgrade
policy is a result of the nature of the product, which becomes virtually
worthless after half a year.

>At most you should be able to ask the vendor to allow an
>exchange. Did you ask them for it?

No. I'm simply disappointed about the way things went. And I *hate* to have
to send my unit back and do without it for some time. I just wished I had
been offered to wait a little longer, and get this 64Mb machine together
with Software Carousel (for which I'm still waiting anyway).

You see? What are the reasons to do so? Let me guess: a) because you felt
it being ethically right to do so, b) because you prefer to have happy
customers and a good name, which may cost a few dollars because of missing
upgrade-income, but will pay itself off in the longer terms.

See above. It wasn't my intention, and I never mentioned Mack. If this was

Wow! what a great idea. I also have the HP200 and the CP900, but I am a
little confused on how to connect the two physically. Bryan, have you
connected the two yet, and if so what cabling system did you use.

Thanks,
Peter

I just hooked the HP serial cable to the CP900. On mine (homemade cable) I
had to
use a null  adapter.  I'm in the process of making a better cable now, my
old one does not fit in the HP well.

Hey! Check out my web page with CP900 shots at...

Subject:      passwords

I have used the password feature on Buddy to globally protect my 200 LX
while well aware that it can be circumvented.  Yesterday I started playing
with the LX's DOS password feature thinking I might try "double
protection" and noticed that it conflicted with Buddy in several ways:

When the LX DOS password was set (by going to DOS), the Buddy password no
longer worked.  Also at least one other Buddy feature did not work - when
I pressed a wrong key, the LX beeped - a feature I had eliminated through
Buddy.

Is there a way to get both password features going?

Is the DOS password known to conflict with BUDDY?

Which password feature is more secure?

Jeff

Morning Jeff;

"I have used the password feature on Buddy to
globally protect my 200 LX while well aware
that it can be circumvented."

Yes the global PW can be gotten around but not
by every turkey on the street in a few minutes.
You do have (a lot) of time to get home walk the
dog, etc then call whoever you need to, to negate
the compromised info. This can be enhanced by a
file PW and putting it in a not so obvious place.

...but who to return this ugly little crate to
should it be found by an honest passer-by?  Make
good use of the name plate feature besides name
for global password protects is to put yor return
info on the outside of the crate or you'll never
see it again.

Use a labelmaker to make a label: REWARD 312-123-3456.
Labels come in many colors.  Its neat, legible,
cheep. Easy to change too. Better than the original.

Have a great weekend all,
Semper Mobilis,
yor pal al :) .............

My desktop is an IBM 16MB PC with one FD and
a nice green mono screen.  I plan to upgrade
someday to two FD. Yes, its a lot faster and
better than my typewriter.

Most people don't use their LXs to its full
portential. Some, most, professionals can use
128MB RAM and a 220 MB flash but they don't
know it, or how to. How to improve?  Think,
and get into a good user's meeting and see how
others are using it will increase yor usage.

I am getting a 700LX next week and would like some feedback on it
from people who use one on a regular basis.

Have you used it with the matching Nokia phone and how well does it
function in that manner?

Other than the Nokia docking features does it perform in the same manner
as a 2x speed LX200?

Anything I need to be aware of, warts or good points?

Hey everyone -

Tried the AceCard driver, loading it through Config.sys, with no joy. The
program seems to load up nice and stays resident on the HP-100, but I still
just get a "drive not ready" warning when I try to access via filer. Any ideas

Al, Excellent point!!   Both with the LX and with their desktop.   Why do
people have to have the biggest and fastest when all they do is
wordprocessing??     I had mine made to do AutoCAD...my "Thing"....my
daughters' machines are not as fast nor do they have as large HDs....they
don't need them!   The "contest" most people compete with should be their
brain...not their computer size!

Yes, I took mine to a kiosk in a mall: you know, the type
that does engraving.  The girl working there had a tough
time making it come out nicely.  She attributed her
difficulty to the softness of the plate.  This was no
doubt true, but I think her lack of experience may have
played a part too.  At any rate, after she finished, I
spent some time flattening it with an arbor press.  The
engraving also needed a little cleaning up--I accomplished
this with the end of a push pin.

As with many either/or hypotheses, there are flaws with the notion
that folks buy a palmtop as tool or gadget.  For me there are parts
of both elements at work.  I have wanted a computer for travel for
several years, but have never felt a notebook was suitable.  I've
used small laptops from work, but have always found I had to carry
an extra bag for them.  Furthermore, the smallest notebooks are
quite expensive.

The 200LX allowed me to take my computing on the road, in my small
briefcase.  Compared to notebooks, even the double speed 32M unit
is cheap.  As an added benefit, I no longer need my paper phone
and appointment book.  So in many regards I see my 200LX as a tool.

At the same time I must admit I take a great deal of pleasure from
showing others what I can do with my little computer.  I feel some
satisfaction in the widely varied and powerful capabilities I carry
in my pocket!  Also, I spend quite a bit of time tweaking all the
settings, trying out new software, and just generally fiddling.
True, some of this playing is to maximize the power of my tool, but
in all honesty many of my little "projects" take more of my time
to set up than they could possibly save me in use.

So for me, the HP200LX is both tool and gadget.

The | symbol gives Works all the free memory to use.  It probably needs as
much as it can get to work.  You can do something like |256 to tell it to
use 256K, but if it gets less than it needs, it won't run.

The upside-down question mark just prevents the "Press any key to return
to system manager" (or whatever the message says) message from displaying
when you exit Works and go back into the Application Manager.

Hi Brian,

Confirming you added the following line to your config.sys:

device=3Dc:\ace\acecard3.com /sdp

Note: The above driver is newer and supports the speed upgrade.

            or

device=3Dc:\ace\acecard.com /sdp

I have had an Omnigo 700 LX some time ago. AFAIK it IS inside a HP200LX with
datacard, no 2x speed. I gave it back for a 100LX because it doesn't fit in my
pockets.

If You whant to get the mail in Lotus Notes to Your hp200lx then You
can create a "agent" that forwards Your mail to the email adress that
You usaly download to Your hp via WWW/LX, GP or whatever.
(if You do that, that is)

Go to the mail box in Lotus notes and select Create agent.
Now You just have to make some choises and tell Lotus what adress all
incoming mail should be moved or copied to.

Dont forget to add @internet DIRECTLY after the adres that You will
forward You Lotus mail to. So If You like to forward to a.b@c.de.
Then You write a.b@c.de@internet.

Subject:      On the road with my hp200lx
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I just have had a three week vacation, driving around in Sweden.
I just whanted to share som experience that I had with my hp200lx and
being mobile with it.

For several of reasons I whanted to be reached via email on a daily
basis but I was going to drive around a lot where there were no phones.

So for this trip I had:
A dc23 pcmcia modem for the Ericsson GH388 and a Megahertz 14.4k pcmcia
modem. And a dialup shell acount.

Sadly enough the dc23 and WWW/LX did not work together. Therefore I
used the cellular with my acount via builtin DataComm. I could do a
fast check if something urgent had arived in my mailbox using Pine on
my Unix acount. ( and delete those Spam messages ). Yes dc23 works with
DataComm. Infact it works with everything except WWW/LX??!!

Whenever I visited a friend with a phonejack I swaped to my Megahertz
and retrived my mail and my News using WWW/LX. But I realised that I
had to swap the batteries everytime I did this. I had to have a fresh
pair that only was for Megahertz use and one pair for ordinary and dc23 =
use.
The dc23 is so nice to the batteries! I dont notice any difference in =
battery
drain when I have it in or when I use it. Very nice.
But with the megahertz You got a "battery low" after a while with batterie=
s
that was not brand new.
This was a hazle. swaping pcmcia and swaping the batteries. The next
time I will travell with my dc23 and a pocket modem instead.

One thing that I also missed was the ability to make backups.
I have a smart modular combo card with 6meg on it that I also will
bring next time so that I can backup the hp every now and then.
The card also have a modem but only 2400 and draws almost no batteries
at all.

Well, its hard to find a easy solution. A low power pcmcia modem for
both cellular and ordinary phonjack with some ram would help.

And one more thing. The GSM system give You a connection of 9600 bps.
So dont try to download anything. I ran across a SH888 and whanted to
try the IrDA connection on it. Using X-modem on my unix acount I began
to download the dj346en.exe driver, but had to abort after several of
minutes when I realized that I only had a couple of percent of the total =
file.

Hello List,

Having used a pocket modem exclusively, I know next to nothing
about the PCMCIA modems.  Which one works best with and without
the AC Charger?  I've heard about the Simple Tech 33.6, but am
unsure of it's current draw.  Any suggestions?


TIA,

Claud

Hi C;

Believe that the upside down ques mark
gets you back to sys aps without a pause.
else it will stop and you have to hit
the enter key before it continues.......

Thinking about it, the pipe possibly permits
yor entry into pgm w/o pause. Try it and see.

And here is 'nuther input: "The | symbol gives
Works all the free memory to use.  It probably
needs as much as it can get to work. You can do
something like |256 to tell it to use 256K, but

The upside-down question mark just prevents the
"Press any key to return to system manager" (or

when you exit Works and go back into the

There it is, in a nutshell............

Go for the Simple Tech.  Mine draws 125ma in active mode and about 20ma
when idle.  Add to that the convenient SimpleJack connector and the low
price, and the five year warranty, and it's a good choice.  :)

Another approach to this nameplate thing I saw on David Shier's 200LX when I
had lunch with him a few weeks ago:

He used one of those Brother PTouch labelers (available at any office store)
and did a nice black on white label with his name, address and phone number.
The label is a very durable, shiny film with the white and black on separate
layers below a protective covering. Very neat indeed.

I have seen this comment, but disregarded it as an immature and
uninformed one. A man has the right to call himself "freak". He said
it first.

As far as my 200LX being a toy, I wish I had more toys like that. It
generates at least $50 (likely more) in extra productivity every
business day, either by allowing me to do more, or by allowing to do
the usual load, but quicker and with less effort.

I have two computers, and both are HP 200 lX. I gave my pentium box
away.

I have a modem connected to my desktop computer. And to it I have a
cable to do backups. So to minimize the cable swapping I installed
ComLink (from SUPER) on my desktop and ran it with PalRun. Now I can
use the modem without having to detach cables. Just connect to the
serial cable and start Comlink.

I read about someone using Patchcom. I tried that one too but it didnt =
work as
I whanted.
ComLink is not ment to be used this way, but it does.

Hi David (and list),
   First, thanks for running the contest! Second, the reason that I am not
submitting an
entry this time, is that I don't KNOW any other HPLX users, and I certainly
don't know five! others
to write about.  I've never even seen another person with an HP200! I only
know of other
users through this list, which I don't always follow completely, and I don't
know any of them well enough
to write about.  I think that a lot of other people might be in the same boat
that I am; it just isn't possible for us to submit
a entry.  I've given some though as to whether I could assemble an entry by
going back through the
list and picking out some active users, but it would just exceed the
"available time" for me.

-Bryan

The prizes are great!=20

But, a list of who you believe to be the top five 200LX "power users" and
an explanation of why you believe each one to be so,=A0 how have they
contributed to the 200LX community,=A0how have they helped you personally,
and what would palmtopping be like without them? Is the problem. (:-(

Just my 2cents.

Let me suggest another solution which works for me.  I make up a paper label,
2 7/8" x 5 3/4"  That leaves a boarder 1/4" on the ends, and 1/8" on the
sides.  Plenty of room for my name, office & home phones, addresses, and e-
mail addresses.  I then connect it to the top cover with clear Contract
(brand) paper from the grocery store.  (I think they have it at craft stores,
too.)

It hardly seems that this would be a strong enough connection, but it works!
I've been using it for over a year, and have only changed it when information
needed updating.  After 6 months, it looks like new.  You can easily remove it
if you don't like it, or change it if you like.

If you orient it correctly, you will have a nice name plate for meetings.  No
one will forget your name.

I don't think I am a freak but others way choose to differ;-) I use my
palmtop (DS 32MB) on a daily basis. My colleagues expect to see my
palmtop at all times and one recently commented that I was the only
person he knew that fully utilised such a machine but I do much more than
store appts and phone numbers in my palmtop!

Subject:      Deleting Events?

I entered an event in the calendar application thinking I was telling it
the event would recur for two days.  Instead, I somehow entered that the
event would occur every other day for infinity.  I now have a whole bunch
of events on my calendar that I can't get rid of.  I've looked over the
manual and have played with every obvious (to me) option on the machine.
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to delete events?  How?

If all else fails, I do have a backup that is only short about 30+
appointments that I can use.  I'd just prefer to delete the events.

Thanks.

HP200LX
I agree it's pretty rare! I've met two other people with hp200lx's -
and they are the only ones I've seen. Speaking from Melbourne, Australia,
I've seen very few handhelds at all...

PSION
Two people with Psions (the first handheld I ever saw, which actually
inspired me to buy a handheld in the first place. The fact that I
ended up getting a hp200lx is telling...but that's a tale for another time.).

WINCE
        - seen one person with a WinCE device (Casio Cassiopea).
NEWTON
        - seen two people with a Newton.
PILOT
        - and two (I think) with those USR Pilots...incidentally, the
                name was apparently choosen after Isaac Asimov's
                USR (United States Robotics) in his robot stories
                - you know, Susan Calvin and all that...

Real easy, though for some reason I confused myself in a simliar way
recently.

Press <APPT>, <F9>, press the up arrow until you reach the event (the
least obvious part) at the top above any other appointments,  press
<DEL>, choose "All Occurrences", "OK" and that should fix you up.

Ah! an invitation to bare one's soul! Please, bear with me...


It is said that computer scientists are the last bastion of Newtonian
determinism: the thesis that the world is perfectly predictable. It
makes perfect sense, if only you know the rules, and how things
started out. Knowing the rules puts you on top of things.

Unfortunately, the world doesn't seem to work like this, as suggested
by Quantum mechanims, Jurisprudence, Economics and Social Interaction
(in order of ascending importance). Though, oddly enough, everyone
searches for rules to make sense of the world - but most of them
recognise that these are just a educated inference, and seem quite happy
with this imcompleteness.

But not so the computer scientist! He (or she) demands certainty:
the ideal universe that Science promised but never delivered. A
universe where the same actions always produce the same results;
where you have full responsibility and full control; omniscience
and omnipotence. When things go wrong, it was your fault; there is no
divine intervention to assist or frustrate you.


How do I personally see the hp200lx? As the determinist's ultimate toy:
a deterministic universe in your pocket.

I have an idea and want to invite all interesting parties to try :

Try connect 200LX with standard serial 9pin cable
Then connect the other end with a converter of (com port to PS/2)
Then connect the normal keyboard with the PS/2.

Will it work?

Agree that everybody has the right to speak freely. We should not blame each
other. It is a free world.

For me, I feel upset too because two months ago I paid $500 for 32MB upgrade
and double speed. Now I found that 64MB is possible.

As consumers, we have to the right to tell these vendors our feelings. Yes,
we may suspect there will be 128MB in the coming next few months? Will it?
No one knows.

That is reasonable, healthy, and nothing wrong.

Do anybody/engineer/technician knows that whether we can replace the 200LX
built-in MSDOS 5.0 command.com with a MSDOS 6.22 ?

I am dreaming to have SYS.COM the C: and copy the COMMAND.COM over to the C
root directory to do that but worrying whether this will damage my 200LX?

I bought mine not exactly as a toy, but not because I really _needed_ it. =
It
was being sold for $99 (200lx, 1meg) and I remembered that it was a cool
thing from a BYTE Mag article I read on the 95lx. It has turned into a =
very
useful and almost indespensible tool. --And toy.

He may be talking about a repeating event like a vacation or something, =
not
an appointment. Those get deleted by going to one of the days that the =

David - can you give me the model number of the Simple Tech, what it's speed
is, where to buy it and how much it costs?  I've been using a Megahertz
#CC4144 for years now.  It works but requires the charger to be plugged in
and has a special phone cord.

Thanks and aloha - bob

Go for the Simple Tech.  Mine draws 125ma in active mode and about 20ma
when idle.  Add to that the convenient SimpleJack connector and the low
price, and the five year warranty, and it's a good choice.  :)

Hello, everybody !
Would somebody give me a hint how to solve the following
problem:
Downloading the HPLX Digest with POST/LX I frequently get the
following message:
"Problem receiving data. Connection closed by remote host"

The HPLX Digest is mostly more than 50K. I have not set a
limit for incoming messages. POST/LX downloads alright but when
this message occurs, it is barred from deleting it from the
server. That means, next time I log in, I have to download it
again and most of the times the messages comes up another time,
blocking me effectively from downloading the rest of my
(mostly short) messages.
Where ist the problem here ?

Thanks in advance
Winfried

Can anyone give me a processing speed comparison between the HP95lx,

Also, can I expect the increased speed to show up in increased screen

Thanks for the help.

Reread your msg, you want to switch msdos

just switch the on command.com file. It won't

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

A few folks have asked if the Web-based system that creates macros to
update the currency converter could use ISO codes instead of country or
currency names (e.g. USD). Anders Larsson found a nice list of ISO
currency codes and the system now offers them as an alternate label. The
codes were manually transcribed, so if you see errors, please email me.

http://www.palmtop.net/money.html

Tip for those with bookmarks: If you prefer ISO codes, look for the part
of the URL that reads "label=country" or "label=currency" and change it
to "label=ISO" so you don't have to use the pull-down menus again.

Thanks to Anders for finding the code list, and the Bank of Montreal for
continuing to let us use their information.

We are talking about the same thing, you can get to the events from the
appointment screen by pressing the up arrow.  Though the <TAB> key is
easier, thanks for the tip.

I heartily agree with Frans.  I'm not trying to choose sides or polarize

run it's course and I move for putting it on the back burner, or making it

Al,

Well you asked so here goes!

Built-in applications that I use:

 Appointment book - appointments but not the todos

 Phone database - extensive phone database (~700 entries) that has been
modified with additional fields to suit my needs. Secondary databases
for Compuserve access phone numbers.

 Database - The general purpose and notetaker databases are my most
extensively used builtin applications. I have databases for:

books I hear about and want to buy; durable goods in our house, when
bought, cost, warrantee, manufacturer etc; images stored on the
palmtop - use Mappot to display the images in the database;
restaurants; music I hear on the radio and want to get a copy of;
files on the HPHAND forum on CSi; acronyms; software installed on home
and work machines, registration and license information; my notes
taken during meetings; extensive todo database with a lot of fields for
sorting/organising flexibility; completed todo database - so the other
one does not get too large; connectivity database for
dialup,ftp,http etc sites that I use; optical detectors and their
characteristics; launch vehicles, their capabilities, brief
success/fail history and cost; publication database with abstracts of
significant papers in my field; solver eqns; programming code
snippets; work related notes; home related notes; quotations; Messier
objects; photographic films; printer control codes (pcl, ibmpro,epson);
hp related hints and tips extracted from Compuserve fora; several computer
related databases (batch file hints/tips, 8088 instructions, solver
tips & help).

HPcalc - solver equations for lasers/optics/lidar analysis.

Lotus123 - some of the spreadsheets on my palmtop include: travel
expense reports, salary/vacation/sick leave tracking, contract
monitoring, plotting data, bicycle gear ratios, great circle distance
calculation, retirement account tracking, investment & stock price
tracking, sunrise time calculator, cost estimation for proposals, cpu
performance comparison, laser/lidar/optics related calculations.

World time - added personally relevant towns and cities as well as
lidar related sites.

System macros - used to tie the above together and automate in various =
ways

Non builtin applications

Accis - Compuserve access
WWW/LX suite - email (6 email accounts across 3 different providers),
newsgroups, ftp, telnet, some web browsing
Optical ray tracing software - analysis of lidar optical designs
Electrical circuit design and analysis
Magellan - Dos file manager
Manuscript - equation capable word processor
Derive - symbolic maths program - derivation of eqns for
solver/programming/analysis etc.
Timeline - project management
Fortran compiler
Fortran numerical recipes code
Quick Basic Professional
Quick C
Certain compiled programs I have developed related to
optics/lasers/lidar
Automap - route planning have both USA and Europe databases
Vertical Reader

Utilities - Buddy, software carousel, bigtime, clipvue, irprint, dbio,
paledit, ppal, pctime, memo to rtf converter, DBview, lxpic, ABC,
adbmoon, ipex, kermit, assorted fonts, assorted file conversion
utilities, lxb, pcremote, pctime, zip/unzip

Plus other apps that I do not use much and a few games (need some
relaxation:-)).

I carry the HP with a PN60 printer, external and pcmcia modems,
cables, serial - parallel printer adapter, flashcards and spare
batteries,ribbons etc in a 12x 7.5x 3.5 in3 leather case for a
complete portable office. The main problem is that the case is too
small to hold sheets of paper for the printer! (I also have a Newton
keyboard that has its own case although I don't take it everywhere.)

My desktop machines are reserved for cpu intensive tasks.

I use a variation on this. Find a store that carries the clear book-bindery
repair tape and put this over a printed label. This stuff is nice and
durable. Fixes your abused books, too. - srl

This is not what I suggested. There is a market for a 32Mb model for sure.
It is a matter of offering a *choice* to the customer, to buy either the
32Mb model or the 64Mb model. I don't see any reasons to assume that the
64Mb version is less profitable to you, so it shouldn't matter whatever the
customer chooses, except that you will miss a double upgrade fee in case he
would be willing to upgrade twice.

I think it is fair to tell the customer about a new version as soon as you
know it. Then the customer has the choice. People who bought a 32Mb version
before you were aware of the possibility of creating a 64Mb model then have
nothing to complain about.

I understand these problems very well, being a professional in the software
and hardware industry as well. However, I just wished to be informed about
this (the price justifies the cost of a stamp) rather than anxiously
waiting for the mail man every day to see if SC has arrived, for weeks,
wondering if something got lost or so, and finally upon initiative from my
side get an answer that it has been delayed even further. Apology accepted
however.

It wouldn't have been a devious plan, it is a common marketing approach.
However, I made these comments because I feel this is not a "necessity"
market (where this approach is common) but a "gadget" market, where you are
selling to freaks, where many want to have the "top-model" and nothing less.

Ok, thanks. Well, my order came in a week before that date I'm afraid
(although I received it later). :-(

I think I owe you an apology as well, for not having contacted you about
this in the first place. However, it was not my intention to start a debate
right here, it started as a slightly frustrated reply on someone else's
mail, which generated some more replies from various people, both pro and

Thanks for your reply.

Does anyone know whether the double speed upgrade affects using the
Accton PC Card network adapter to make an ethernet connection?

Everything that I've read about the double speed upgrade indicates that
communications will still work properly after the upgrade, but nothing
specifically mentioned ethernet connections.

Thanks for any help,

I've used the Accton ethernet card with my double-speed palmtop.  I
haven't used it extensively yet, but it did work the few times I've
used it.

The Accton card is not affected by the speed upgrade.  It works well on a
single or double-speed machine.

The Silicom card will not work at all on a double-speed machine, and there
has been no success in trying to develop a driver for it, and Silicom has
not been helpful in those efforts.

My advice: get the Accton card.  Search for EN2216-1 at
www.computeresp.com and you should be able to get a great price.

Is there a reason you don't just run Acad on your palmtop? There is a HP
CGA video driver available that I can send you if that's the problem,
and EM87 gets around the coprocessor problem. I have R10 installed on my
6meg HP200LX and use the cursor keys for crosshair movement.  I tried
HPmouse and couldn't get it to function in Acadr10.

Compresion time timed by simple Timer.BAT batch file, time, %1 %2 %3, time,
IE:  Timer diet pe.exe (enter, enter, enter immediately)

All times with 200LX, Doublespeed 8M machine on AC (no Lite sleep).

---

Looking at the above data, I think I'm gonna start using PKLite!  I tried it
once before and wasn't impressed, it would seem that the compression time is
double, but the ratio is very close, and the execution time is half that of
Diet.  I've unDieted my BIN directory, originally 1335315 bytes, and PKLite'd
it and it's now 1338156 bytes, it grew 2843 bytes..  One cool thing is, PKLite
will automatically unpack EXEPack (which makes the file larger when repacked,
and EXEPack bites.. :)  Uncompressing the *.COM files, and recompressing with
PKLite made my BIN directory grow by 16098 bytes!  PKLite couldn't compress
Buddy.COM for some reason, so that was a big difference.  After doing Diet on
Buddy.COM, my Bin directory was overall smaller than I started, and the
startup times were shorter.  PKLite warns if a program has overlays, and
typically does *not* work if so.  However, it appears that *some* overlays are
compressable, such as LXBatch compiled programs have an overlay and they
compress well and execute normally.  (Matter of fact, LXBatch PKLite's the
program at compile-time if it's available!  Neat!)

WWPack messes up the files, two of the three above!  Perhaps the Beta version
I was using was the problem.  Has anyone else had this happen?  Both Less and
PE locked 'er up when trying to run them after being WWPacked.  (Of course,
WWPack gave no errors..)  PGP worked just fine.  And WWPack *claims* to be
able to do Overlays..  Uh, well, it will but just like the rest, the files
no longer work.. :)  I found UNP(ack) on Simtel.net that helped me

Subject:      Timex Data Link Watch
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I just bought a Timex Data Link watch and wondered if there are any
tools, shareware, tips, etc on getting the info from my 200LX to it
without having to reenter it in the Timex software.

The main issue would be extracting 1 day's appointments and formatting
it for the Timex.

I didn't find any mention of Timex on the S.U.P.E.R. site, so any help
would be welcome.

Why don't you try it yourself?
If you try, do it in winter,
because that will be a nice and expensive heater.

Subject:      hp ac adapters

after seeing the seed of ac charging, I looked in the hp 100 book it said
9.6v-14.4 v and max 750ma, the 200 book said same voltage and min 750ma.
for the ac adapters ( the old hp95 will take almost any voltage and
polarity,it seems)
I tried some old 12 adapters that had an oc voltage of 15-16v and labeled
100-200ma
they seem to work fine. is there any harm in useing these adapters??
would not think that the hp would draw more than 50-100ma normaly(unless
useing
modems or other cards) or the batt. would die very fast.
thanks

Try <APPT>, <MENU>, <O>, <G>.

Also check out GREET.ZIP on www.palmtop.net.  It allows you to change
the time that the greeting pops up.  I used to get sick of it poping up
the first time I turned my machine on after midnight even though I was
still on the previous day.  So I set it to 4am and usually that is quite
safe for me.

The first thing to do is check that timex software and see if it will =
import
comma-delimited info. If so, it's likely that you can get it into the =
watch
in a couple steps.

Why would you do this? Desktop keyboards 1) aren't designed to use serial
ports 2) probably have different pin-outs than the Newt kb 3) require
more power (think about the LED's for caps lock, etc).

Doing this would be asking for trouble...

Sorry for posting to the list as Ian Horsfield, I'm really

to turn off "prepend name" before I sent the message, though the

BTW - this docked Nokia phone setup is really cool.  Too bad the US
doesn't have GSM coverage everywhere!  Sure beats plugging my 100LX

I'm not sure if we're talking about the same thing here, but just so
nobody gets confused: the Accton EN2216-1 and EN2216-2 cards will work
fine in a single or double-speed 200LX.

Hi all

With the recent talk on currency conversion I thought some of you may be
interested in a daily email of current rates.

I use www.xe.net/currency and therefore have up to date rates on a daily

In times of rapid currency exchange I find this invaluable.

     I believe that the REX was created because the 320LX has various
covers that come off when you carry it in your back pocket. Also, the 320LX is
larger. Let's just make an add-on so users can still carry their appointments
with them. Yea, that'll work...

I use my 320LX to connect with Windows NT and copy stuff to a flash disk for
200lx and laptop.

ROFL.  Let me get this straight.  They have a solution... for Windows CE

I have been trying to make some filters in Post/lx without much luck.

For example, I put in the line HPLX-L=3DHP Mailing List under ÝFilters¨
in post.cfg.

HP Mailing List is a folder.  I want in comming mail to go
directly to this folder, but I keep getting filter errors.  I even
switched it around HP Mailing List=3DHPLX-L and it still doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Gee,

I see people using HP200lx's on the Tokyo subways every week. Of course, I
see people using Zaruses every day (grin).  Being based in Tokyo I don't see
most of the U.S. magazines but is there any coverage in magazines other than
the HPPTP? At least two magazines have monthly columns covering the HP200lx
and others have regular coverage of a machine that just celebrated it's
fourth birthday!

Anyway, I encourage folks to enter David's contest. I'd hate to win one of
the prizes by default for my entry which really doesn't meet David's desire
for humor.

Cheers,

Bob

I just tried PKlite last night:


TCC.EXE         (Turbo C++ commandline compiler)
        465k compressed by only 50k
VIM.EXE         (Vi IMproved programmer's editor, version 3)
        235k compressed to 123k

The interesting thing is that a compressed program may actually load
faster, because there is less disk accessing. Not applicable to the
hp200lx's RAM disk; but I tried this on a 386 laptop, and the
load time for VIM was identical with and without compression - 2.9 secs.
TCC was also indistinguishable.

Folks,

I have this Dvorak keyboard TSR from PC Magazine.  I don't know how it
modify it for use on the hplx.  As it is if I use debug on my hp200lx I
get a workable dvorak.com program.

However it also re assigns some of the extra rearrangged HPLX keys.
The ones over the numbers and the extra period and comma next to the space
bar and so forth.

So does anyone know what could be changed so these keys would be left
alone?

My aunt cannot carry her 95LX with her since she had back surgery and
my wife won't take hers with her due to the weight of it along with
everything else in her purse.  While the REX won't let them record
info, it would be a big help to take phone numbers and appointments
with them.  Neither of them is a computer nut either, but I would be
glad to set them up if and when any syncing ability is developed.

     I believe that the REX was created because the 320LX has various
covers that come off when you carry it in your back pocket. Also, the
320LX is
larger. Let's just make an add-on so users can still carry their
appointments
with them. Yea, that'll work...

I use my 320LX to connect with Windows NT and copy stuff to a flash
disk for
200lx and laptop.

ROFL.  Let me get this straight.  They have a solution... for Windows

2.0... but don't want to develop for a "proprietary operating
environment."  That's good for a few laughs... before we MARCH TO THEIR

You could also zap Z-Ray using DEBUG to change the default viewer to HV.
Then you could view a ZIP file of HTML's with Z-Ray, and press Enter to view
a member.  You wouldn't have to worry about deleting the unzipped HTML file,
nor would you have to write a batch file.

Why should this be immature and uninformed? Especially the latter wonders
me? My statement simply is that the HP200LX *for me* is not purely a tool
but has some additional value as well. There is nothing here which could be
seen as "uninformed". No one is better informed about *my* use and feelings
about the HP than me. Also, I fail to see how admitting the "toy-value" the
HP has for me could be "immature". Is it immature to enjoy using a tool and
admitting it? Is it immature to use an expensive tool if a cheaper one
could serve the purpose as well? I'm especially surprised to see statements
like these from a psychiatrist.

>A man has the right to call himself "freak". He said it first.

It seems that the word "freak" means something else than I had in mind. I
just want to make clear that the HP200LX is for sure a tool for me, but it
has additional value. It is handy to be able to store appointments and
phone numbers and carry around some databases, and have a calculator at
hand, but there are many (cheaper) machines which allow one to do so. Many
of us (mailing list subscribers) have the double speed option installed,
but how much gain of time does it actually provide? Are the few cumulative
seconds we daily gain really economically seen worth the trouble? And then,
reading this mailing list even costs us more time. You're probably better
off by unsubscribing this mailing list and not installing the double speed
upgrade (if time is the only consideration). Yet we are still reading this
list and using double speed at the same time. There is more at work than
just an economical consideration. If the HP was only a tool, I wouldn't
subscribe to a devoted mailing list, just like I don't subscribe to a
mailing list for all the other tools I have. The HP200LX is more than just
a tool, it is a toy or gadget as well.

>As far as my 200LX being a toy, I wish I had more toys like that. It

I fully agree with this.

Ha! I like this one. It makes some sense.

However, with today's complexity the deterministic nature of the computer
is fading away rapidly. If things were deterministic, every process should
be repeatable, with the same outcome everytime. However, I see more and
more cases where the same action doesn't result in the same outcome.
Especially the process of crashing is hardly repeatable. Sometimes the HP
just crashes when using maxdos, booting the thing and repeating the same
action results in a flawless operation. Interrupts are poluting the outcome
here. Sometimes, a database gets corrupted. It is hardly repeatable. There
are some elements at work (interrupts, battery voltage, temperature, maybe
even radiation) which affect the operation. The more complex the machine,
the less deterministic the whole thing becomes. Especially with Windoze
machines things seem to happen as an "act of God". Sometimes the thing
refuses to detect a specific device at boot time. Boot the thing again, and
it recognizes the device. Same process, different outcome. The universe
becomes more complex, and the deterministic nature fades away...

The pipe symbol gives the application _all_ the available
memory to run in. Without the pipe symbol you get whatever
memory you specified in the Setup Applet, usually 96K,
sometimes more.

Perhaps you can tell us two items that will spur more

1. What is the contest about,

2. What are the prizes. (I know what some of the prizes are,

It may be a larg'ish job. The program looks at the scancodes (not the
ASCII codes) returned by the keyboard processor and translates all 0ch
<=3D scancode <=3D 35h, which apparently fits on a PC keyboard. As far as=
 I
can see, it leaves the function keys, the number keys and the '-' alone
and translates the '=3D' and 'A'-'/' keys which is what you apparently
want on a PC keyboard.

One would have to make a list of all the scancodes on the HP and find
out which ones to change. The job also becomes somewhat larger as one
may have to translate some of the FN and shift key scancodes on the HP -
something the program is not prepared for. These values also depends on
the country your HP is made for.

Maybe one could use key200.com to change the problem-keys back?
Or probably easier, use it to make a dvorak keyboard.

However, changing to a Dvorak keyboard would make ones life hell every
time one met a QWERTY keyboard.

For folks who need frequent updates, this is a sensible way to get the

for updating the currency converter using email updates.

Indeed, that is the reason for wanting to use it on the HPLX as well.
Dvorak is easy to install on my Desktop and Notebook.

Ever since I learn computer from XT, I have numerous used tiny beloved
programmes and games. As I amateur/non-professional programmer, I can
programming any utility I want using Basic, C, Pascal, dBase, etc.

Some of the beatiful applications are unreplaceable by any other current
PDA, for example:

  The art of negotiator (You can still buy it from some vendor now) helps me
a lot in business

  The idea generator -  a wonderful tool

  The business simulator (game) - a university executive trainer that I have
played over 10 years and still love to play.

  Lotus symphony - All the tools I need with graphical charts and WYSIWYG.
You can use it to do spreadsheeet, word processor with speller, database
management, com port transmission, outliner, file converter, agenda, and I
can put the CGM graphic files anywhere I want on the screen. It supports
many printer type including HP laser. Remember that Symphony also has a
powerful Lotus macro for me to programming. I am now programming my own
business simulator like business decision making tool. This is the best
software I ever have. (Now, you can forget your Ms Word 5 or Ms
Windows/Excel/Word/etc)

Actually, there are many more that I cannot list out here one by one.

You see, this is basically a need for me, not only a toy, but more than I
need a pentium PC.

There is only one regret that my backup of the timeline software has been
corrupted and I am looking for a project management tool now.

Let us tell the Rex vendor or the IntelliSync that they are very
short-sighted.

In fact, there are still numerous DOS users around the world.

If they are not willing to support it, they should at least tell us (or the
public) in what format (technically) should be able to communicate with the
Rex through some programming languages such as C, C++, Basic, Assembler,
etc.

We have so many programmers and engineers here that we probably will have
some shareware or freeware released very quickly.

Oh, that version is a beta, and known to be buggy. Use 3.04.  It works

I got it working on a few programs with overlays.  Like Word 5.5 for dos.
With others, it doesn't work.

Thanks for the table.  Pklite looks good as far as time goes.  I'll try to
do a comparison with wwpack and pklite on mine.

Hi.
Thanks for a very interesting and thorough investigation!

I have a monkey wrench to throw in for you:
Did you set the "-g" flag when compressing with DIET?  This is the "Great
decompression routine" flag.  According to the manual, it adds an extra
100 bytes to the size of the compressed program, but it can result in
greater decompression speeds.  Your decompression times with DIET seem
(subjectively) pretty long to me (also a 2X speed machine).  I always
compress with the "-g" flag set.

Cheers.

Using pklite v. 1.15 (7/30/92) and wwpack v. 3.04a, I compressed PE.EXE v 2.1

PE.EXE uncompressed loaded in 1.05 seconds, size of 97,860 bytes.

Compressed with pklite, loaded in 1.35 s, size of 54,412 bytes.

Compressed with wwpack, loaded in 2.02 s, size of 49,272 bytes.

So pklite is faster, but wwpack compresses best.

This test was performed on a 6MB double speed, using a trial average.

Just as a note, PE.EXE is compressed by diet by default, and is 54,385
bytes, and loads in 2.38 s.

Why I got different sizes and times for pe.exe than Walter Francis, I don't
know, except it appears we are using different versions of PE.EXE, and
different versions of pklite.

I don't know which version of diet was used to compress PE.EXE originally.

Hey everybody -

Thanks to Qman for pointing out I was forgetting the "/spd" parameter for the
acecard3.com driver. Works like a champ in my HP-100 The final results are in:


All test were completed with the machine connected to an AC adapter to make the
playing field even. The HP-200 is doublespeeded, the HP-100 is normal clock
speed. All times are in seconds to read and write 13 files consisting of a
total of about 140K, along with creating a directory for them, and then
deleting the files and directory, repeated 6 times:

HP UN: 10MB Flashdisk HP part 1013A from SunDisk, without Stacker
HP STK: 10MB Flashdisk HP part 1013A from SunDisk, with Stacker 3.0
Viking: Viking 48MB ATA Flashcard

          HP STK   HP UN     Viking
HP-200x2  92       45        18
HP-100x1  129      53        30

Now to doublespeed the HP-100 once I back together with my soldering iron!!

I just bought a Timex Data Link watch and wondered if there are any
tools, shareware, tips, etc on getting the info from my 200LX to it
without having to reenter it in the Timex software.

The main issue would be extracting 1 day's appointments and formatting
it for the Timex.

I didn't find any mention of Timex on the S.U.P.E.R. site, so any help
would be welcome.

The other problem as I see it is not a computer-related one at all, but is
perhaps a problem nonetheless.  The Dvorak keyboard is meant to be
touch-typed upon.  I know my fingertips aren't that small...  I tend to use
'thumbs-optimized' typing.  Someone might reasonably create a key200 layout
setup as a 'dvorak-for-thumbs' if you will...

I'm not sure what the problem is, I did notice that you use WWPack on GP, and
it worked fine on PGP, but Less and PE both bombed when executing.  I need to
try it on a few more things as a test to see if it happens more.  But unless
there was something really wrong with my setup, that sort of thing shouldn't
happen.

I'll do some testing and post my results.

Also, I may repost my chart, someone informed me of an option in Diet that
increases the size by 100 bytes, but greatly increases decompression speed!
So I'll probably redo the Diet timings and repost.

Hi everybody,

I own a 2MB 200LX + 20 MB HP Flash disk, and have have encountered a:

"Disk is write-protected "  message

when attempting to copy or move files from A: to C : AND viceversa.

The strange thing is that as soon as I change directory and GO BACK to the
source drive, MAGIC ! the to be copied file is there regardless of the message
??? !!!

I would greatly appreciate some help to UN PROTECT both C: and A:

Thank you very much !

I've had similar problems, mostly a complaint that my C drive was write
protected. I backed up the C drive, reinitialized it with Ctrl-Shift-On, and
restored the files and all was OK again.

I'm not sure what causes the problem because I often run programs on the LX
that cause it to lock up and it's possible something may occasionally be
writing into a part of the disk partition illegally. I also access the LX
using interlnk/intersvr from a Win95 system and it's possible that the long
filenames used by Win95 could be causing a problem...I haven't looked
closely enough at the problem because it's only happened about 3-4 times in
2 years.

Hi Longden,

Thank you for your prompt response.

Actually I am looking for an alternative to the Initializing C: + A: procedure,
which is so time consumming , especially with the flash which has so much info !

I wonder if there is actaully an alternative to the Initializing.
Would you know of any ?

I have another question if I may.

I get the following message when trying to run the Check utility that comes
with the flash: CHECK /F /A, from >>> DOS...

I get this message:
"Check (null) error # 51"

Check will ONLY run from Filer as Check.exe, but when I need to do some file fix,
I get the above message.

What is wrong with my procedure?

I get the same error while executing SDIR !

Thanks again.

Andres

I agree it's time consuming, but no I don't have an alternative.

I don't use Stacker myself, so someone else will have to answer that.

Its a nice little machine, purchased it new from Service Merchandise years

Can I jump in? If I recall - the origional problem is that a flash card
was write protected? If you are using sdir - that would lead me to beleive
that you are using Stacker. If this is the case - the write protection of
a drive, is a "feature", not a bug. Really. :¬) If Stacker detects any
"serious" errors, it will write protect the drive, until you repair it.
You can repair the drive, and remove the protection, by using
CHECK A: /F

I hope I understand the situation. In any case - good luck.

Hi Larry,

this is Andres;
and Thank you too, for your prompt response and jumping in to try and help
me out !!

I posted the message with the original problem, and Longden C. Loo jumped in
first with his initiallizing suggestion.

1.Yes, as you say:
 " the original problem is that a flash card (was) became ??? write protected.

2. I am trying to avoid initiallizing, for I have too much info to transfer from
   my PC  to the card !

3. I use STACKER with my HP Flash to double its capacity.

4. My second e- ( which I should have included with the first one ), pointed out
  the difficulty that I have using CHECK A: /F :

I run it from DOS, for it won't work from FILER, and I always get the
following message, which might ? be related to the card's satcked status.

Check will ONLY run from Filer as Check.exe, but when I need to do some file fix,
I get the above message.

"check (null)  error, # 51"

5.Conclusion: I cannot repair the drive NOR remove the protection !

What is wrong with my procedure?

I get the same error while executing SDIR !

Thanks again.

Andres

Dear all,

This has probably been addressed before, although I could not find anything
in the archives.

Resource Concepts Internet Showroom no longer seems to have the Megahertz
14.4 PC card modem on special for $10 (I couldn't find it on the web page
today), however they do have the 28.8/14.4 model for $24. Can people tell
me if this model works in the HP200, what extra configuration needs to be
done to run it, and how it affects battery life?

Thanks in advance,

at my site (www.hplx.net) OR:

You can send in what you think a good idea for the next contest would be.
Extremely good contest ideas will be added to the selection for this round
of prizes.  Top Five LX "Power Users" entries will still be accepted as
well, of course.

OK, here is a primer on filters.  They are not that difficult and you
were on the right track, just on the wrong train. <grin>

Use the SETUP program to help you.  You already know how to make a new
folder.  In SETUP, use F8 (for Externals) and then F for Filters to
enter filter specs into the ÝFilters¨ section of the POST.CFG.  The
first prompt you asks you for the data that goes to the left of the
equals sign and that is the string to match.  The second prompt is for
the thing to the right of the equals sign and this is the name of the
folder where messages with a header containing the string will be
stored.

The stuff you enter into SETUP above will go into a global filters
section called ÝFilters¨ and will apply to all of you Email inboxes.
This should be fine for most cases because it won't hurt to try to
filter messages that will not fit the criteria for re-routing to a
folder.

So, in order to filter HPLX-List messages into a folder, enter the
filter spec as:

First prompt =3D hplx-l@
Second prompt =3D ListHP

to have SETUP make an entry in POST.CFG like this:

ÝFilters¨
hplx-l@=3DListHP

which will cause any message download toward any inbox that has the
string "hplx-l@" in the header to go into a folder called ListHP
instead of that inbox.  Of course, you can have a different name for
the folder.

That should be all you need.  Personally, I have a slightly more
complicated arrangement that I will describe.  But novices should not
go any further because the following requires manually editing the
POST.CFG file.  Enter at your own risk! <grin>

Filters in the ÝFilters¨ section are global and apply to all
mailboxes.  I wanted to have this filter apply to only one of my
inboxes (the one for Mail) and not to the other mailboxes.  So, to do
this required I add some extra stuff in my POST.CFG like this:

I have a folder called ListHP.  This is nothing special.

ÝFOLDERS¨
ListHP=3DF

In the section for my Email, I have a specification to tell it to
process incoming mail though a filter called ListFilter.  This line is
added to the ÝMail¨ section or the section for whichever mailbox you
want this specific filter to apply to.

ÝMail¨
Filter=3DListFilter

And I have a new section I added somewhere else that describes what
that filter is

ÝListFilter¨
hplx-l@=3DListHP

So, all of this means that when a message is downloaded toward this
specific inbox, it will be filtered by this specific filter.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Hello to the list,

I've seen posts to the list that mention how much current
different card modems draw through the PCMCIA port.  I know
that some of the information comes from product literature,
but some of the posts mention the actual current that is drawn
by individual cards, which varies from card to card.  Is there
a program that measures the actual current draw used by a
particular card?  How is the actual current measured?

Also, for WWW/LX, other than specifying COM2 and a different
baud rate, are there any other settings that must be done to
use a card modem?  I've set up LXCIC, which indicates the
modem powers up, but don't get a response from the modem
(e.g., in datacom, typing 'AT', I get no repoonse from the
modem).  Is there something I'm missing?

TIA,

Claud

Frans - you are right. It was immature of me to call your interest in

another freaky event in an otherwise orderly discussion.

But enough games, time to go searching for missed billable items (for
32 different strings anywhere within a 80 character field, in 8200

I don't know about anybody else, but I measure it with a multimeter.  You
can get one of these at almost any electronics shop-- Radio Shack has lots
of them.  The easiest way to do it is to get a cheap AC adapter, cut one
of the wires coming to the part that plugs into the 200LX, and then hook
up the multimeter probes in series.  Switch it to current-measuring mode,
and you're in business.

I'm guessing that W95 must be the PC application for another variety of=20

and the software is Timexidl.exe.  The help files for it only discuss=20
importing phone entries - which closely resembles the phone info you=20
included.

It maintains a separate file (alarm.dat) for appointments and it=20

appointments by printing to a file using a Datacard format.  With this,=20
I suspect I can write a Basic program to convert the print file to 1=20
that the Datalink will accept.

Thanks for the reply.

I just bought a Timex Data Link watch and wondered if there are any

without having to reenter it in the Timex software.

The main issue would be extracting 1 day's appointments and formatting
it for the Timex.

I didn't find any mention of Timex on the S.U.P.E.R. site, so any help

Hi,

I have some ideas for contests:

* Who can create the coolest Topcard.

* Who can find the most interesting old DOS freeware/shareware program on
the net which is not yet on any 200LX web site (good way to find new
interesting programs :) ).

* Who is the most advanced palmtop user- a description of the usage about
2000 words or so.

* The Most Unsual Place/situation you have used your palmtop.

* The most interesting accessory you have made yourself for your palmtop
(such as serial connector, casing, name plate).

* Write a short fun story what happened when you and your friends in the
office had to use a palmtop to solve a work related problem. You using
95/100/200LX and your friend/friends a Win CE palmtop.

* Create a HTML ad for 200LX. One web page advertising the 200LX.

* Give your Top 10 list of people you think has made the most important
contribution to the HPLX society- software authors, hardware manufactures
e.t.c.



Just some quick ideas.

Regards,

Found this and thought it may be of interest to list members.

It only mentions CE (of course) but seems to be incredibly low power, (I=20
don't know how to translate the 60 milliwatts quoted to the milliamps we=20
usually use for comparison).

http://www.socketcom.com/press/cfxlpepr.htm

A quote from the Press release...
"As a member of Socket=92s family of Battery Friendly=99 I/O adapters for=
=20
Windows CE-based devices, the new LP-E Card prolongs the battery
life of its mobile host by being energy efficient, requiring only 60
milliwatts to operate. In comparison, typical PC Card adapters draw 10 to
20 times more power. Low power consumption allows users to spend
less time changing batteries or hassling with bulky AC adapters and more
time doing productive work. The CompactFlash size Low Power Ethernet
Card achieves this breakthrough in power conservation by being the
first Windows CE I/O adapter to operate on 3.3 volts rather than 5 volts.=
 "

and ...
"The CompactFlash version of the Low Power Ethernet Card has a
suggested retail price of $149"

Power = Current * Voltage, so because it said that it's running at 3.3V,
the current is (.06/3.3) = 18 milliamps.

Does anyone know whether the HP200LX supports 3.3V PC Cards?  I think the
standard is 5V.

I think the consensus was that it wouldn't work because of the power draw.

Chris D Herrera, a big palmtop user (now of CE persuasion) has a modem power
usage webpage at http://members.aol.com/pdcchrisd/pccrdpwr.htm

All 3 models of the Megahertz 28.8 modems listed there show 275mA, and the
limit on the LX slot is supposed to be 150mA. Doesn't sound like it would
work, even under AC.. tho I don't have one myself to confirm this..plus I
don't know if the modem you're talking about is one of the three listed
(XJ2288, XJA2288, CCA3288).

Claud, I'm not sure which modem you're using, or which version of LXCIC.

In Datacomm, make sure you're pointing to the card and not the serial port:

        Menu/Connect/Settings/Interface

        "Com2" should be toggled on

If this still doesn't work, some earlier versions of LXCIC had some bugs.
I'd suggest you verify that the modem is active using the built-in driver.
Just add this line to your autoexec.bat:

        d:\bin\cic100 /gen 1

and try Datacomm again. If it still doesn't work, it may be the power draw
on the modem. Have a look at this website, maybe it shows the power draw
for your particular modem:

I can say the problem has nothing to do with either W96 or Interlink/Intersvr
as I've had the problem and I NEVER used these in conjunction with stacker.

Hi Frans.  This is my first message, reply on this newsgroup. Been on
CompuServe for years, and have meant to come over here, but somehow
never made/had the time.  I've had some difficulty sending this message
from Outlook. Even though "plain text" is set, somehow HTML also got
sent, and my message rejected because it
was too long.  Hopefully, this will go.


<<I think it is fair to tell the customer about a new version as soon as

version before you were aware of the possibility of creating a 64Mb
model then have nothing to complain about.>>

There really wasn't much lead time. I didn't know Mack had it working
and that he thought it would be ready for our new catalog, Aug 1, until
mid-June.  It is tough to pre-announce products for a number of reasons.
For one people, continually call and ask when it will be ready. This is
a resource drain. For another, as you know, stuff happens, and the
product may be delayed or never ship.  For example, Mack has looked into
128M.  (I hope he doesn't mind me sharing this). He tells me that it
would be a major software effort to write the appropriate drivers
because of the Palmtop BIOS.
Suppose tomorrow he tells me he can do it. Should I announce it?  If I
don't, based on my previous statement to you that we had no plans for
the 128M, wouldn't you be upset again. Also, purely from a business
point of view, I don't want (and can't afford) to have my customers wait
indefinitely for a product, when I can sell him one now.

Yes, we should have.  However, it would have required 3 post cards for

out sooner.


<<I think I owe you an apology as well, for not having contacted you
about this in the first place. However, it was not my intention to start
a debate right here, it started as a slightly frustrated reply on

pro

Apology accepted, although I don't think you have much to apologize for.

I am a consumer too.  I understand and can easily put myself in your
shoes. Sometimes, however, I think it is more difficult for people to
understand the constraints of a small business.  That is not to make an
excuse, as there are plenty of resource and bureaucratic constraints in
a larger company as well.

Although, I don't completely agree with your characterization of the
market as "gadget" Vs "necessity", there is certainly some truth to it.
Without positive word-of-mouth (from good customer service and quality
products) it would be difficult if not impossible to survive.

"Dvorak" refers to an alternative keyboard layout (i.e. the keys are in
different positions, not QWERTY).  It's supposedly faster than a normal
keyboard, but I have no experience with that.

The "Rex" is a credit card sized deviced that has a little LCD screen and
keeps track of phone numbers, appointments(?), and the like.  It can plug
into a PCMCIA socket and there exists sync software for the 620LX, I
think.

The Dvorak keyboard layout is designed to be faster for those who type in
English, based upon a few things.  First, the commonly-used 'QWERTY'
keyboard layout was designed by a typewriter manufacturer to actually SLOW
DOWN typists!  This was to prevent type mechanism jams.  The inventor went
on to make a killing by advertising his typewriters as unjammable.
        Essentially what he did was this:  he analyzed the English language,
finding letters and combinations of letters that were typed most
frequently, and made them as difficult to type as he could.
        The Dvorak keyboard layout does the opposite: it makes those letters and
key combinations easy to use via touch-typing.

        That of course is dependent upon touch-typing then, for speed.  My
personal feeling is that little benefit is gained, therefore, from having a
dvorak layout on the 200LX.  How many people touch-type upon it?
        What might be more beneficial would be for someone to study the way 200LX
users type...  (of the four that I know (myself included) we type holding
the machine like a game controller, and type with out thumbs.)  and using
that information to create a layour where the most used letters were within
easy reach of the thumbs, etc...

        Just my $.02

This is off-list subject a bit, but since palmtop people seem to attract
other palmtop people I thought I'd post this up.

Recently my local Office Depot decided to discontinue carrying the PSION
line. They marked the PSION 5 down to $250, and since I'd heard some great
things about them I bought one. While it is a wonderful machine, I'm more
comfortable with my 200lx. Therefore I'm putting this machine up for sale or
trade.

Description:
The machine I have was the last one they had (the demo model). Physically
the unit looks new. I've worked with it and everything seems to work
(serial, IR, voice recorder, etc.). The only things missing are the stylus
and a box. Manuals, Software, and serial cable are included.

As a sale item, I am asking for $250 flat, shipping included. For trade I am
looking for a 1000cx 2mb, but would consider a 200lx 2mb as well. I am not
above considering other items on a case by case basis.

Would you consider a 100LX 1MB w/EXP 1414LXM 4MB FLASH/MODEM? Unit is
in fair condition...screen is floppy & cover latch spring is replaced w/
rubberband. I'll throw in a leather case as well.

It did happen to me, three years ago.  The suggestions made here so far,
such as DOC2RTF and the use of the "Save As ..." option in Word, really do
work.  Another thing I have done with Word is to save a doc as HTML and then
view it with HV.  Also, in Excel, you can modfiy spreadsheets in .WK1
format, and you can convert from .XLS to .WK1 using Excel's "Save As ...".
Even more radical, perhaps more trouble but my personal preference, is to
use the Windows Clipboard to transfer data between Word or Excel and plain
old text.  I do Select All, Copy, then Paste into Notepad, then save the
text file.  Then I can edit it with Calvin when I get around to it and
reverse the process to put it all back into Word or Excel.  (Word and Excel
have "Save As ... Text" options, but they don't give you portable formats -
copy and paste works better, and when you copy/paste with Excel you get
tab-delimited files.)  I lose the font formatting, but I don't spend a lot
of time on that stuff anyway; on the other hand, DOC2RTF will preserve Bold
and Underlining if that's important.

Hi all,

I'm running a DOS program and I can't seem to use the arrow keys to select
text.  Normally, you can hold down the shift key and use the arrows to move
around and select.  All I get are numbers being inserted.  For example, if
I press shift right-arrow, I get a "6".

I thought I remembered reading something in the manual about a special key
combination to get what I want, but I can't find it.  Any suggestions
(other than: don't try to select text)?

Thanks much,

Danny

P.S.  The program I am running is:
ftp://ftp.parallaxinc.com/pub/parallax/stamp2.exe

Larry,

thanks for your reply & suggestion.

As I said before, I'm still experiencing problems with the CHECK command that
came with my HP Flash.

The only command I use to check and fix Stacked is:

CHECK A: /F

but I STILL get:

"check (null)  error, # 51"

Any suggestions as to where I can find & download a Stacker 4.0.?

Thanks again.

Andres

I think I have an upgrade version of Stacker 4.0 available for the
asking.  As an upgrade, it obviously requires a previous version already
be installed.  If you want more info, I'll have to dig up the box from
the office.

If anyone wants it, email me.  It is still new, sealed in package and of
no interest to me.

Hi All,

Seems like I'm never happy ;-)

I'm trying to start ccMail from the program manager and noticed that the
ccMail icon has been replaced by the Quicken one - Sure enough, Quicken
starts when I click it! Ýand it "won't let me" edit the settings with the F3
"Edit" command.

It's a double-speed 200LX w/ 32 MB and I don't swap the "big" portion (I let
it be G: instead of C:).

in dos.

Any help would be appreciated.

Talk about a trade, I have a
Toshiba T1200 rarely used laptop
with manuals for trade. I'm looking
for a 64MB flash card, give or take
a couple MB.  For an 80MB card,
I'll throw in a 44/88 MB Syquest

Has anyone had success running the freeware clock program on the S.U.P.E.R.
site that puts a clock and battery indicator in the upper corner of the LX
on a doublespeed machine? Whenever I try to run it, it freaks out my LX and
forces me to do the <ctrl><alt><on> sequence to reset my unit. I'm wondering
if the doublespeed driver might have something to do with it.

I took James Scheffler's suggestion and cooked up a keyboard layout
that is optimized for the way that us HP palmtop users type with our
thumbs. Check out http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/~mdh2 for info on what it
looks like and how to install it.

It uses key200, so everyone should be able to get it running with out
too many problems.  The layout is only a couple days old, so I can't
tell you how much it has improved my typing speed because I'm still
learning it.

I'll update the web page in the next couple of days with some info on
the process that I used to derive this layout. I welcome any comments
on ways to make the layout better.

Digest Readers:

Along with the new version of LXDR that just went up on SUPER, there
also exists a special version called LXDRP. This came into existence
rather quickly after I sent out a HPLX-L message asking about how to
reply to a message that I was reading with LXDR as an external program
in POST/LX. Emailing back and forth with Rick Kozak and Andreas
Garzotto, we decided that it would be cool to hit a button while
reading a message in LXDR and have that message appended to a POST/LX
mailbox of your choice. So this is what Rick wrote and this special,
commercial version is available directly from him. Details are in the
freeware archive.

A kludgy fix may be to keep bigcurs (something like that) on there. Maybe
even run the app from a batch file with bigcurs at the end.

Hi David

I wonder if you can help me. I am a novice at setting up my new modem which
I bought from Thaddeus some time back. It is the Megahertz 14.4bps fax
modem. I have a double speed 200LX with 8mb ram.
I have read most documents that I can find but still seem to having trouble
to connect, it says modem not installed. Am I missing something?? I would
like to use it to read and send email, can this be done seing that it is a
fax card? I would also like to connect it to my cell phone, can this be
done?
Thaddeus does not support this equipment unfortunately. Very little
documnetation on how to connect.

If you can help I really would appreciate it is you could explain in lay
terms step by step.
Thanx a stack

What's speed is the double speed?  How does it compare to the HP95lx's speed?
Is there a benchmark comparison to an XT, 286, 386, etc. speed?

Will you sell the unit as a stand alone (i.e., without all the accessories)?

I don't have any experience with the 32mb setup, but it sounds like a
problem with your appmgr.dat file. I'll quote another poster (from back in
July) on a solution, tho I haven't tried it myself:

--> quote:

1. exit the Applications manager (Quit from the &More screen)
2. rename your c:\_dat\appmgr.dat file to something like appmgr.old
3. run the Applications Mgr again...

Before doing the above, you might want to write down any non-internal apps
you've got installed so you can re-install them in your new appmgr.dat file
once it's created. I suggested renaming the file rather than deleting it so
you could switch back later if you realised you forgot something. (And,
before you ask, "No, sorry, but there's no easy way to cut and paste
application-records from one appmgr.dat file to the other....")

--> end quote

I think you're referring to Jorgen Dybdahl's "CLK" program?

I have a pre-SUPER version that I occasionally run on my 6mb/2x LX. It's 907
bytes long, and doesn't seem to give me any problems the few times I've
used it.

What's the model of the modem. Look on the back of the modem and it should
say something like: "MODEL XJ1144".

I use an XJ3144 on my 6mb/2x LX.

> I have read most documents that I can find but still seem to having trouble

On your autoexec.bat, make sure you have the line:

        d:\bin\cic100 /gen 1

On some machines, this line is there, but commented out like this:

        rem  d:\bin\cic100 /gen 1

Probably. AFAIK, they're all FAX/Data cards.

Depends on the model number. If you have an XJ3144, then maybe, but then
you'd still need the phone cable.

> Thaddeus does not support this equipment unfortunately. Very little
> documnetation on how to connect.

Most of the information is gleaned from the HP200LX manual. Some hints have
to be given here or there, depending on what software you're trying to use
with the modem (Datacomm, NetTamer, WWW/LX, GP, etc). We'd still need to
know the modem model number and what software you're trying.

> If you can help I really would appreciate it is you could explain in lay

I think most readers would agree that a lay termed explanation would be
inappropriate on the list, and that in any case, not enough information is
known to help you at this point (modem model, whether cic100 driver is

I pointed the poster earlier to a website:
        http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Horizon/5463/files.html

and that has files for DOS 5.0, but I stand corrected by Al, DELTREE and
MOVE are not in DOS 5.0, so you won't find them there. Sorry.

Yes, but what about somebody send me an email with the excel attach to it.

All I could do now is just upload the attached file into my PC, open it with
Ms Excel and then save as WK1 format. Download it back into my HP200 and
open it with 1-2-3. After all these, I found that the file loses all the
original format. The formula does not work at all.

This is the only way and it cannot be done if I receive the mail overseas
without bring along my PC.

Anyway . .

Does anybody know the format of Office 97 Excel and Word.

If I have the information, I am willing to try to use my programming
knowledge to develop some converter.

OK Buddy wizards,

Where is the setting in Buddy for double entering doc files in filer, and =
having them open in Memo?

Now when I do it, Memo opens but the file does not appear.

Hi All:

     I am thinning out my collection of PCMCIA FAX/MODEMS and have two
to offer:

1- AT&T KeepInTouch: has short cable(3cm), but will include connector
and extension cable.

2- EXP1414CL w/new cable.

     Both come w/o docs, but I have used both these modems extensively
and they work great!


- I am asking $15 for each which includes shipping within U.S.

- If you live outside the US, terms are negotiable.

- If you are a student on a tight budget, and have need of a
FAX/MODEM for your LX, drop me a note.


Cheers,

Hi,

I just looked and saw that in Excel, Options that one can pre-define the
save format to i.e. WK1. Nice. But Word doesn't have this possiblility? One
has to do a SAVE AS?

I'm guessing that W95 must be the PC application for another variety of

Subject:      A Bill Gates Funny
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit

        At a recent computer expo (COMDEX), Bill Gates reportedly compared
the computer industry with the auto industry and stated:  "If GM kept up
with technology like the computer industry has, we would be driving $25 cars
that got 1000 miles to the gallon."
        In response to Bill's comments, General Motors issued a press
release stating:
"If GM had developed technology like Microsoft, we would all be driving cars
with the following characteristics:
1. For no reason whatsoever your car would crash twice a day.
2. Every time they repainted the lines on the road, you would have to buy a
new car.
3. Occasionally your car would die on the freeway for no reason, and you
would just          accept this, restart and drive on.
4. Occasionally, executing a maneuver such as a left turn would cause your
car to shut       down and refuse to start, in which case you would have to
reinstall the engine.
5. Only one person at a time could use the car, unless you bought "Car95"
or "CarNT".        But then you would have to buy more seats.
6. Apple would make a car that was powered by the sun, reliable, five times
as fast, and         twice as easy to drive, but would only run on 5% of the
roads.
7. The oil, water temperature and alternator warning lights would be
replaced by a       single "general car default" warning light.
8. New seats would force everyone to have the same size butt.
9. The airbag system would say "Are you sure?" before deploying.
10. Occasionally for no reason whatsoever, your car would lock you out and
refuse            to let you in until you simultaneously lifted the door
handle, turn the key, and       grabbed hold of the radio antenna.
11. GM would require all car buyers to also purchase a deluxe set of Rand
McNally               road maps (now a GM subsidiary), even though they
neither need them nor want them.         Attempting to delete this option
would immediately cause the car's performance             to diminish by 50%
or more.Moreover, GM would become a target for investigation by       the
Justice Department.
12. Every time GM introduced a new model, car buyers would have to learn how
to drive        all over again because none of the controls would operate in
the same manner as             the old car.
13. You'd press the "Start" button to shut off the engine.

I have a doublespeed machine, and while it (CLK.COM) runs on the Palmtop, it
would occationally lock up the palmtop when placed in the Autoexec.BAT.
Wrapped it with some ECHO's to determine that.

That, and the fact that it left a garbled mess on graphics screens made me
decide to stop using it.  Also, it would be nice if the percentages were
customizable, ie:  minimum and maximum voltages.  My NiMH batteries never went
above 66%..  Otherwise, it was a pretty neat little program!

Hehe, I replaced my backup battery today and it's 3.22v.  My old one was
leaving an occational downward spike in BattLog that lead me to believe it was
pretty much dead.

I used UNPack to decompress all files before analyzing.

Apparently I am using a different version of PE, as mine is 92798 bytes
uncompressed..  What version do you have, I have 2.0.  And the PKLite I have
is version 2.01 from the built-in help, although I think I listed it's version
from the version reported from UNP..  Oops.

>I don't know which version of diet was used to compress PE.EXE originally.

I'll be reposting my table, fixing my Diet times as they could be improved, as
I didn't use the Great SFX routine.

Wierd. I don't use wwpack any more anyways. Some things it made would lock
up the system, and saving 2k here and there doesn't seem to be enough
reason to use it over diet (still my program of choice). Besides, I would
still have to keep something around to uncompress al those data files... =)

They've both got serial ports...

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I notice that my newly minted 32 meg 200lx refuses to recognize the 8
meg memory in EXP card. Modem functions OK. I like to keep my
communication software where the modem is, so that I can move the whole
setup easily from one computer to another.

Drive F: on modem card is present when in a nonupgraded 200lx. But the
upgraded one already has an F:. Logically, one would expect the flash
to install as drive G:. But this does not happen. The two computers
have isentical config.sys, except for spd31ren.sys & RD32sys in an
upgraded computer.

Has anyone encountered such situation?

Hello all,

My 200lx now suffers from S.H.S. (squeaky hinge syndrome)

Does anyone know of a oil, silicone, teflon etc. that could safely be used
to lubricate the hinges on a HP200lx???

Thank you in advance.

I assume you are using the swap driver so the 32 meg drive is C.  That
means your CONFIG.SYS is on F (which the system knows as C when you
originally boot).  Therefore, add the EXP device line to F:\CONFIG.SYS.
Depending on whether you put the EXP device line before or after the
swap device line, the EXP card and what is now F will either be F or G.

Hope that is clear.

Now that all drives are in place, I notice another strange behaviour
(in a 32 meg doublespeed 200 LX). Sometimes, not all the time, the
purple function key stops working. This means no cut/paste, no page
down, etc. But at other times, it works. I can't seem to find any
variable that makes a difference.

When the key malfunctions, rebooting makes no difference.

Again, has anyone wxperienced something like this?

If you want to delete directories and files in the HP and are stopped by =
some
of the fils having hidden/read only attributes, try this:

attrib -h -r -a -s

if you type this or write it to a batch file, it will change all the file=
s in the current
dir to no attributes. If you add /s it will process all lower directories=
.

You may then use the filer to highlight a directory with subdirs inside =
and simply
pres Del, F10 and they are gone!

I have a batch file attrib -h -r -a -s /s in my _dat dir, so I can in fil=
er go Menu, O,
D and be in dos in the dir I want to delete, type at (my batch file is =
at.bat) and
then e (exit in a batch file) and I am back in filer ready to slaughter =
all those re-
calcitrent (?) files

Folks,


I was at my daughter's work tonight waiting for her. (17 y/o w/ pt job). I
wandered the store and my eye was caught by some Dilbert stuff.

Turned out to be metal business cards cases.  They had 5 different type 2
dilbert and 3 others. At at $19.95 4 of the 5 fit my 8 meg pcmcia Flash
Ram ata card perfectly. One of the 4 holds 2 cords very nicely. Of the 4
that fit all are strong metal. The one that fit 2 cards has a nice
internal spring bar to hold even one card in place nicely. All are MUCH
stronger that the plastic case I use now.

The store is one of those Mall shops that engraves things. Called "Things
remembered"
The Dilbert ones have a business card inside stating "Colibri Card
Master".

So if you need a nice stong case for your extra Ram card or modem, tell
them you heard about it from Beth at the Lloyd Center Store in Portland
Or.

English and Portuguese. You can install as many or as few of the
languages as you want/need/have room for. It works quite well, but I am
still looking for something with more words. If I remember right this
one has 30,000 or 40,000 words / language and takes about 5 Megs /

Yes, after I replaced my crystal. After mashing (southern term for =
pressing
really hard - I'm not saying to do this, though) the key for a couple =
weeks
it fixed itsself. Others have reported keyboard glitches after doing
upgrades and the things to check are if the torx bolts under the rubber =
feet
are tight enough - tricky if you didn't do the upgrade and so don't have =
the
right tool. Mine, though, just started working fine after a while.

Tim,

Are you using a custom font, i.e. andrewsfont, helvetica, etc.?  On *some*
machines, like my 100LX, a few Buddy features are disabled when using
other fonts. If you do have a custom font loaded, try rebooting the
machine with the built-in font instead.  Then try double entering a doc
file in filer.  If Buddy works, then it will confirm the cause.  If so,
you may want to experiment with other fonts to find one that won't
interfere with Buddy.  I've found that lxfont works well.  I've yet to
find a sans serif type that will work with Buddy on my palmtop.

HTH,

Jose

I had similar problems. It turned out to be a bad keyboard
connection. If the problem occurs again, just put some pressure
on your case in the lower right corner, where 0.=3D+ is located.
If this solves your problem, you first should check, if the
screws of your case are loose. Fix them and the problem should
go away. If the screws are fix, you might have to open your
palmtop and clean the keyboard connector cable. However this is
not simple and you should do it only, if you know how to open
the palmtop. The speed upgrade comes with a detailed
explanation.

I found out, that the 32MB upgrade, which sits just under the
number block, adds a little 'belly' to the keyboard and could
be the reason for a bad keyboard connection, which works on
pressure between the case and the motherboard.

Hi Bradley & listers,

        I use Tamiya's Ceramic Grease # 8725-400 and it works very well, for
best results remove the two plastic caps on the sides before applying
the product and use it sparingly. You can buy it at any good hobby
store, cost is about $4.00/$6.00.

Indeed, putting pressure on the right lower corner seems to improve the
situation. But how does one fix the screws? Is it something that a
non-computer-technician can do?

Subject:      hexdump utility?

I'm looking for a tiny hexdump utility for use on the 200lx.  I found one
on http://www.shareware.com called htype.com (rnhtype.zip) that is
exactly what I want (small, screen output) but I can't get it to work on
the palmtop.

I run it and then the cursor just sits there blinking for as long as I
leave it.  Twice, it locked the machine though requiring me to remove the
batteries to stop it.

I just want a tiny (1-10K) utility that gives me the hex dump printed to
screen.  Any suggestions as to how to get htype to work or anyone have
suggestions for another option?

I have a old dos utility that is called FM (file modifer) that runs on the
HP200LX and allows you to change or view hex files. Would you like a copy of
it?

Or you could use "attrib," ... a nifty undocumented method for
clearing all attributes.  I picked up this little trick right
here on HPLX-L a few months ago.

I don't know if that information is posted anywhere. The FAQ only describes
the differences between the ROM versions for the 100LX, while the 200LX ROM
versions only show the dates and serial numbers, but no details (at bottom):

Q: What are the various ROM revisions?
A: (incomplete list of bugfixes/features, need help here)
The ROM versions are listed here with the earliest known serial number
prefix containing that ROM.  For example, the SG342 by 100LX ROM
version 1.04a means that it was introduced around the 42nd week of
1993.  There may be a few weeks' time when the two different ROM
versions were being manufactured simultaneously.  See the description
of what's encoded in the serial number, below, for more details on
decoding the serial numbers.  E-mail the editor if you have an earlier
serial number with a given ROM version.
***100LX ROM VERSIONS***
Ver.  Ser.#   Comments
1.01a SG3??   Original version.  Some were eproms
1.02a SG325   Infected by the HEU bug
1.03a SG336   HEU (sHift kEy bUg) fixed, speed up for carry-forward todos.
1.04a SG342   Last ROM version prior to 2MB Model.  Does not need
                FS.COM that comes on the CPACK disk for the redirector.
1.05a SG351   Added support for 2MB
1.06a SG412   Final 100LX version.  Some cc:Mail bugs fixed.  Found on
                latest 2MB units, and on some 1MB models.
At least one user reported a dramatic (2x) speedup in the calendar
app monthly view when updating from 1.02a to 1.04a.
***200LX ROM VERSIONS***
Ver.  Ser.#
1.00a SG425
1.01a SG430
1.02a SG442
Q: How do I determine which ROM version I have?
A: Reboot the machine (cntl-alt-del) and watch the screen.

It's most likely a key failure.  Sometimes the keys get a little soggy and
don't contact with a regular press-- sometimes you really have to push
them down hard to get it to work.  Try doing a keyboard test, or try using
the Fn key and see how hard you have to press to get it to show up.  The
good news is, if it IS a key failure, they're usually completely fixable
by cleaning out under the contact pad.

Another case can be found at most dive shops (SCUBA).  Hard plastic,
watertight to at least the sport depth "limit" of 100 ft, removable neck
lanyard.  They come in sizes ranging from one PC card up to 4 or 5.  I
don't recall the manufacturer at this time but the name stamped in the
plastic (inside the lid) is "WITZ".

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="x-user-defined"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi all,

My friend's HP200LX (DoubleSpeed/6MB) "refused" to start.  As the last effort,
he hard reset the unit with Ctrl+Shift+On.

The unit finally turned on but the screen was garbled.  He then took it to HP
Service Center.  They unplugged the memory chip (it was Times2 Tech PC4MB 4MB
200LX REV 2 4L chip) and the unit runs perfectly on DoubleSpeed/2MB
configuration.

Questions: Does the T2T DS/6MB unit need special driver in order to get proper
display?  Is there a way to test the T2T memory chip?

TIA.

Look on the SUPER site for a thing called "BIN2HEX".  It's a program for
transforming any file to an editable text file.  Also included is
"HEX2BIN" which will transform the text file (after you modify it, if
you like) back into a binary file.  The entire collection including a
text file explaining the two programs is 12970 bites. (bin2hex = 5534,
hex2bin = 5791, and hex2bin.txt = 1645).

Just an addition to this thread.  Timex sells a serial IR transmitter that

Subject:  Re: Timex Data Link Watch




I'm guessing that W95 must be the PC application for another variety of
the Datalink.  Mine specifically is the Ironman Triathlon with Datalink
and the software is Timexidl.exe.  The help files for it only discuss
importing phone entries - which closely resembles the phone info you
included.

It maintains a separate file (alarm.dat) for appointments and it
appears to be a simple format.  I can tell what the fields are based
upon the contents.  Because of this, if I could build a file like it, I
could replace the file and then start the Datalink program.

After pondering a while today, I realized that I can extract 1 day's
appointments by printing to a file using a Datacard format.  With this,
I suspect I can write a Basic program to convert the print file to 1
that the Datalink will accept.

Thanks for the reply.
Mike

Subject:        Timex Data Link Watch

I just bought a Timex Data Link watch and wondered if there are any
tools, shareware, tips, etc on getting the info from my 200LX to it
without having to reenter it in the Timex software.

The main issue would be extracting 1 day's appointments and formatting
it for the Timex.

I didn't find any mention of Timex on the S.U.P.E.R. site, so any help
would be welcome.

For Sale:       English 200LX 2Mb (Serial# SG51900159) - Defective.
                Unit being sold For Parts.

This unit is in excellent condition and doesn't have "the crack" nor any
screen, keyboard, or other such defects. The unit suddenly stopped working
completely, dead as a post and all attempts to revive it have failed. The
strange thing about this problem is that leaving the unit for a few hours
with all the batteries yanked then replacing both main and backup batteries
usually gets it going again and it works normally but.... it's again dead as
a post the following day! The details i've given are all that were passed to
me by the owner who has already decided to replace it with a brand-new unit
so please remember folks... i won't be attempting a fix as this unit is
already consigned to the scrapyard! It is possible i believe (with some
careful troubleshooting and know-how) to return this unit to active duty but
that is a task for the surgeons among us. <g>

I have been asked by the owner to entertain bids for the sale of the unit
(english manual included). Interested persons: *Please Do Not Send Bids To
This List* - send to: ianmel@bigfoot.com

        Opening bid is US $50.00

I will gather all bids and post the results of the highest bid received in
about two weeks (on 7-Sep) to this list.

I've been in touch with the author regarding this problem but I don't
think it is a GP problem, more like my ISP doesn't like the PPP driver.

The debug version shows the PPP driver sending requests but not getting

Anyone else run into this problem? It is the same with my 200lx and

I am in contact with Jeff. He seems to be running 9-10 TSR's before my
CLKB, so there are plenty of chances that one or more have started
fighting. What probably is happening is that another TSR is grabbing the
same keyboard interrupt. Sometimes it helps to load the TSR's in a
different order.

I have sent Jeff a more limited version that does not use the keyboard
interrupt at all to see if that helps.

Same answer.

Eh??? In what way? If you are talking about the tiny stuff in the top
hand corner, you can turn the display off by holding down the Right-Ctrl
and at the same time press the Right-Shift key. I run the program on my
six computers, and have never found it necessary to turn the display
off. It may be possible to switch to graphics mode on the LX - I haven't
tried.

>Otherwise, it was a pretty neat little program!

You should have told me as I asked for advice in the manual. :)

As described in the manual, I am mapping the values returned by the
palmtop 27 to (I think) 54 to a percentage between 0 and 100 (I try to
stick to 2 digits). The number is therefore an integer percentage of 3
volts as I assume that it is possible to get 3 volts from some
batteries(?); since starting measuring, I have never got more than about
2.88 volts out of my batteries so I may be wrong here. The 0% means that
the HP is about to give op and that is to me the important figure. It
would probably be more correct to say that the HP give up when there is
around 76% left, but then one has to remember that number.

Any opinion anyone?

This is the first I have heard about problems with CLKB. It is running
happily in a lot of computers (friends and the 6 I have). I suggest that
anyone having experienced problems email me directly (please include
your autoexec.bat) so I can take a look at it.

For what it's worth, maybe there should be an option for battery type--
alkalines will start out at right around 3 volts, whereas NiMH or NiCd
batteries will be more like 2.6-2.7 volts at the start and quickly go down
to 2.4-2.5, where they stay for most of their life.  Lithium batteries, on
the other hand, start out at 3.3 volts (the maximum the palmtop can
measure) and stay there for a while!  :)

Greetings fellow LXers,

I am one of the many people who bought one of those NECX cards and,
in
an effort to make a contribution to this list, I went to look and see
exactly what this card is. I don't know if this is common knowledge
already. If so, I apologize in advance. From what I can gather, it is
made by SCM Microsystems and called the SwapBox Lite Bootable, model#
SBI-C1B. There's a web page with a complete description at
http://www.scmmicro.com/products/pccadap/lite.htm .

I fired off two emails to the sales people for a confirmation.
However,
the person who kept replying back seemed very hestitant
about helping me. Anyway, below are the two replies that I received.
The
replies are quoting the entire text that I originaly sent.

I have just recently acquired what I believe is a PCMCIA adapter card
made by SCM. I am curious to know if there is any infomration or
documentation for this card.

Description: This is a 16-bit ISA card for PC/AT computers and seems
to support Tpye III PCMCIA devices. The only information etched on
the card itself is this:

Thank you for your time in advance. Any information is greatly

Curtis,

The card you have seems to be SCM.  For some reason I cannot track
that
exact revision in my files.  To confirm it is bootable, there should
be
a flash chip on the card or the drive.

For information on how to use the boot function you need to read the
section on the website which refers to the booting option.  The web
page
is http://www.scmmicro.com/techsup/boot.htm.

Let me know how this helps.

David,

Forgive me, but I looked at your web pages (again) and I still cannot
find the information I'm looking for.

The card I have seems to closely match the description of your
SwapBox Lite SBI-C1B model. The card I have has a rear access and a
single slot. However, according to the description on the page
http://www.scmmicro.com/products/pccadap/lite.htm , there is no
information on how the 'bootable' version boots. I can only assume
that it might use some sort of EPROM socket like those of bootable
network cards. The card I have, though, has no such socket, but
rather two sets of what appears to be IDE connectors. Are these in
fact IDE interfaces? Are they custom? As a developer and part-time
hardware hacker, I am very curious to know. There are no pictures (or
prices) on your web pages for me to make any reasonable assumptions
to say that what I have _is_ that card. Again, here is what little
information is printed on the card:

(c) 1996 SCM GmbH
    SMMMCDR31
    KCE WV-0 94V-0 F1

I don't know if the number SMMMCDR31 is a model number, or if somehow
it correlates with model number SBI-C1x. I would like clarification
on that.


I beg for your patience in my request. I would like to know if you
have any information on the particular card I have, if this is indeed
made by SCM. I realize you are a busy person and hope you would be
willing to fulfill my humble request. I greatly appreciate your time
and effort in advance.

Greetings listers,

Let's make a deal, I have a
Toshiba T1200 rarely used laptop
with manuals for trade. I'm looking
for a 64MB flash card, give or take
a couple MB.

For an 80MB card, I'll throw in a
44/88 MB Syquest removable hard drive.
How about an old extra video or modem
for desktop too?

Semper Mobilis,
yor pal al :) .............

This card is probably an older model that is no longer supported. It
may even have been a one off model for a another OEM. It is not
bootable but there is a unoccupied pad for the flash ram that they
use to make it bootable. The bootable version did not use an eprom
like NIC's do, it used a chunk of flash ram that you could configure
with supplied software to boot whatever os you wanted. Teh two "IDE"
connectors are not IDE, they are for a floppy bay mounted second
socket. I have a ministor pcmcia adaptor that has exactly the same
sort of connectors for its floppy bay socket. SCM probably made one
isa card and packaged it several different ways, one read slot, one
rear slot bootable, one rear and one front slot and maybe even one
rear and one front slot bootable. I haven't tried the drivers on
their site but I would be willing to bet that the drivers for the
single slot card they have on the web site will work with the ones we
have.

list.com (by V Buerg) is 8k and has an alt-H option for hex dump...

BUT it displays
on screen, rather than dumping to stdout, so you can't redirect it to
a file, so may not be what you want. No idea where I got it...

Does anyone on the list use MaxDOS? If you do, here's a question:

If you're running a program under MaxDOS and and one of your HP Appointment
entries causes an alarm (one beep under MaxDOS), are you able to continue
to operate your HP?

Mine is locked up tight (ctrl-shift-on time!). This does not seem related
to the program that I'm running under MaxDOS, but is probably due to
something that I've set up incorrectly. I'm running a T2T doublespeed, 5
meg machine.

Help!

Maybe you don't have enough memory when you run straight from dos?

Terminate system manager and then try from a clean dos prompt.  Or
temporarily edit your autoexec.bat (on the stacked drive) and remove the
100/200 or sysmgr command or rem it out.  Then try running the stacker
tools from a dos prompt.

Hi All

I have my C: Jammed.. upon issuing the Jmax command I got an error message
right at the end..

Internal error reading clusters xxxx-xxxx.

The Doc file says  its caused by a physical error on the host drive and to
unmount and run Scandisk/NDD or some such.  I did this and ran NDD..No
errors found..

Running NDD on the Jammed drive resulted in a couple of read errors and
Write protect flags on C: for SOME files..  ie 3.

Is there anyone who knows what may have happened here? Anyone had similar
happenings?

Is there any command in Jam that may fix the error or am I destined to
Backup..I have done once today..delete Jam file and create new..  I tried
shrinking and all other commands on the Jam distribution..


Any ideas appreciated


TIA

Hi,

As described in MaxDOS's documentation- use PlayEX which you also load in
your autoexec.bat. Now it will play your whole alarm sound when you are =
in
a MaxDOS session and I am sure it will not hang.

Just found this on the site

http://www.21store.co.uk/pdantic/index.htm

any idea if this could be made to work with
the HP200 IrDa port?

Or has this already been discussed <grin>

-------------- Start quote -----------
Ericsson SH888
It features a proper IrDA compatible Infrared port on the side (good
position for the cramped traveler in economy).  Point it at an active
port on any IrDA laptop or palmtop and it gets recognized as an SH888
clearly passing the IrDA 'discovery' test.
It is a dual band digital phone that automatically switches between
bands.  Supporting both the GSM 900 and GSM 1800 bands means you can
use this phone when stepping off the plane at well over a hundred
countries around the globe.  Featuring the latest voice Codex, the
SH888 already supports the new improved voice-quality features
gradually coming on-stream.
Unlike almost all other phones, the tiny SH888 incorporates the
co-called 'Data modem' whilst not really a modem in the traditional
sense of the word.  Modem has been adopted as a term that most
non-techies understand.  By managing to incorporate the entire product
into the phone, means not only that you negate the need to both buy
and configure the expensive external PC CARD Data Modem, but you don't
need to buy special interface leads.   Another point which is often
missed, you no longer need to occupy that PC CARD slot in your
Palmtop.  Nothing kills the operating time more on a palmtop or PDA
than asking it to run a thirsty PC CARD.
The SH888 offers the choice of data connection paths between itself an
the chosen PC, laptop, palmtop or PDA.  You can either point the IrDA
ports together or simply connect using the RS-232 serial lead as
supplied.
The supplied Ericsson CD ROM contains PC-based client software, the
all important modem.inf file so Windows can recognize the phone. You
also get both user and technical manuals in Adobe Acrobat format
together with a very nice menu system allowing easy install of any of
these items onto your laptop for easy reference at a later date.  They
even include (pretty rare this) a slick routine allowing you to make a
set of 3.5 floppy disk installation disks if needed.
If you needed proof that the Bluetooth proposals are valid, then
consider this lowly author.  I'm used to walking about whether I'm
wearing jeans or a suit, with my Palm III clipped on my right-hand
side, and my Nokia 6110 likewise clipped on my left-hand side.  At
this time, it is the closest I can get to a mobile office solution.
Replacing the 6110 with the SH888 as I did yesterday opens up a whole
new world of possibilities.  Firstly my coverage possibilities and
lower-rate billing options has just opened wide up as GSM 1800 such as
the Orange network is way cheaper than 900Mhz GSM.  Secondly I now
realize I'm carrying a complete Email send and receive station capable
of accessing my POP3 Email boxes both here and in the USA.  Added to
which software clients loaded onto my Palm III further enable me to
surf the web (SmartCode text based) send Fax's, and even directly
initiate POCSAG pages (Mark/Space).

I took my mother to lunch yesterday (dutiful son etc.) we're sat in
the garden area of the Alice Lisle pub in the New Forest whilst the
house peacock looked on hoping I'd slide it some scampi under the
table.

I pulled the phone off the belt, then the Palm III, plonked them on
the table and pointed them together, tapped a few check boxes on the
Palm III and I was logging into my POP3 mailbox interactively (thanks
to HandStamp Pro) deciding on which Emails to download.  I then
composed an Email to two friends in the US sending them my mothers
best wishes and promptly sent them.  No fuss, no errors and the people
at the next table barely showed a spark of interest because the two
components are sleek, small and near-silent save for a couple of muted
beeps.

Taking the above scenario to an RF-based PAN Personal Area
Network(BlueTooth) and I'd not even have had to remove the phone from
my belt thus making it a one-handed operation.  And in this comparison
I've barely scratched the surface of possibilities such as automatic
mailbox checking and notification etc.

If you are in Europe, have an Email account and think it would be,
nice, handy or downright vital to have no-brainer data access to
either your ISP or Corporate network, then the SH888 is the only
product for you. If you are using a CE-based Palm-size PC you'll be
pleased to know that they work right out of the box with the SH888,
well they do after you load a tiny support file off the supplied
Ericsson CD ROM.

Oh yes, and we all these hardware items in stock here at 21store.
Well you didn't think you were going to get away without a shameless
plug did you?

Hi There,

There is a Japanese solution to this. Some years back when I was surfing
the Japanese HP Palmtop pages, I remember that I found a program (a TSR =
it
should be..) which made it possible to set my version of DOS without
installing that version. I mean I could set the palmtop DOS version to be
6.2 so I could run programs which would not run in DOS 5.0. A "ver" in a
DOS prompt gave version 6.2 (if I configured it as such). During that
time I didn't find it useful for my requirements. But today I would be
nice to have. However, I can't remember the name of the program or the
Japanese site. So maybe some other "surfer" could give us a direction?

Premero: Use ACE/Sunshine defrag.  It comes with ACE or Carousel.

Listers: I have used MOVE and DELTREE from MS DOS V6.2 with LX
DOS V.5.0 wit no apparent problems.  Seems to woik like a charm.
Seems like other utils as XCOPY will work too.

I have the gcc source for a freeware Verilog simulator (simulates
electronics circuits) and I want to compile it for DOS so that I can
use it on my 200LX.  Unfortunately, the only DOS machine that I have
access to is my palmtop (which doesn't have enough memory to install
gcc).  Would anyone out there be willing to compile it for me?  If so
reply to me in e-mail and I can give you the source.

Maybe even better: does anyone use a Verilog simulator on their
palmtop that they could point me towards?

Hi Chuck,

Guess what I found while checking the drive D: on my Omnbook 300.

Yeap! Thats right defrag for DOS 5.0. (:-)

Drop me a line and I'll send you a copy.

BTW: emm300.exe where did you get that from?

It is unlikely they have the HPLX version, although, of course, it is
possible. The PC version won't run on the HP Palmtop. The LX version was
a significant rewrite.

I've used ABC/LX and Batset and like ABC/LX. The advantage is you
really can install NiMH batteries and forget about them. Just set the
program up and it will start charging the batteries whenever they are
low. If it has
one disadvantage it is it doesn't charge continously longer than 16
hours on the fast charge which can be a pain for higher capacity
batteries. But then the higher capacity batteriers take so long to
charge anyway I, personsonally, don't find much of an advantage to
them. Anything which takes longer that 8 or ten hours which is overnight
for me is too long. Hope Mack is still working on increasing the charging current!

Let me/us know if you find the software or a source for it. It would be a

Subject:      PNS200 conflicts

For many months now I could not get PNS200 to work consistently in my 200
LX.  On clicking on a PIM file in filer, the PIM would start up (database,
notebook, etc) but with the file that was previously open in that
application.  That is it would not open the new datafile I had clicked on.

I had discovered a long time ago that if I disabled Buddy (Ctrl -), then
PNS 200 would work correctly but I was unwilling to do without BUDDY and
so I decided to live with a PNS that only worked correctly for certain
files but not others.

Today, while fooling around with it, I discovered that if I removed my
alternative font TSR (Helvsd, Andrew3, or similar) by "rem"ing it from my
autoexec.bat and rebooting the LX, then the PNS200 worked correctly.
Moving the font TSR to a different order in the autoexec.bat has not
allowed me so far to run both a font such as Helvsd and PNS200 correctly.

I am sure I am not the only one who is using an alternate font with PNS200
on an LX.  If so, what font does not conflict with PNS200 and where do you
have it in the autoexec.bat relative to BUDDY, PNS200, etc.  I also run
QuickLX, the letter completion TSR.

Thanks.

OK, *this* is cool. Solves many of the stupid problems:
        - a modem for a *digital* phone
        - power drain on palmtop
        - wires

But no price on the site for the ericsson SH888...

Palmtop Circuit is a commercial package made by Design Software, Inc.
(www.designsoftware.com). They list it under 'Other Products' on
their web page, but they don't have any other info on it, other than
the fact it was made for the 200lx. No pricing or anything.

Let's make a deal, I have a Toshiba

for trade. Good for library research,
kids notebook, etc.

I'm looking for a 64MB flash card,
give or take a couple MB.

For an 80MB card, I'll throw in an
old Desktop PC with HD, modem, 44/88 MB
Syquest removable hard drive.

Great for backup mode. Never know.
Great for the kids room.

Folks,

I've been using Reference manager 7 for Windows for Bibliography records.
Now that I have the palmtop I decided it would be nice to find a DOS
version of it that would run on my 200lx.

While doing a dejanews search I came across Papyrus.  It is a dos program
and the demo runs well on my palmtop.
All of its parts are seperate add on so I can keep a striped down version
on the 200lx and all the add ons on the desktop.

I just loaded it today so I'll let you know how it work. The demo has a 30
days trial period.

I never considered gcc on the palmtop, for the memory reason. Also, it's
pretty inefficient in other ways (gnu: the "Microsoft of unix").

But I'd guess that the DOS version would require a 286 - ie not run on the
XT of a hp200lx, inefficiencies regardless.

I understand that this is the usual, recommended method of setting up a 32

WHY is this the recommended method, rather than leaving the 32 megs as

Your problem is most likely that you are still relying on the PNS200 patch
function to open those files. It actually replaces the name of the last file
open in each application's ENV file with the filename you picked in Filer.
Problem is, it only works if you have the application closed. If you have
database open and pick another database, the one you have open will remain
open.

The way around this is to use keystuff to open them. For example, to get a
database open, you would first remove the line in the ÝPatch¨ section for the
database and then add a line similar to this to the Action section:

3=c:\bin\ks.com \C\$\9%k/

And up in the ÝMenu¨ section you would still have:

3=Database

This method of file opening is a bit slower, but you don't have to worry about
closing the app first.

Thanks, I checked it out and sent them a request for information.
Is their anyone who has used it who could comment on it? It sound
very interesting a circuit simulator made for the 200LX but the
company is over in Budipest so there is no way to test the program
without buying it. Anybody on the list in Budipest who could go to
Design Software and check it out?

I had been having TWO problems with my Thaddeus-upgraded 8-meg doublespeed
machine (well, three, if you count the flaky B key....). One is exactly
the problem Jeff describes above, but - contrary to Mitch's suggestion, it
occurs whether the application is open or not, even after a fresh reboot.

The other is that the built-in file requester would not work for me. I
could perform a fresh boot, open MEMO, DATABASE, PHONE, or NOTES, press
F9, and obtain the file requester. But as soon as I selected something in
the requester, the entire system would lock up, requiring a
<Ctrl><Shift><On> "hard" reboot.

I have just tried some testing with my Flashcard OUT (normally I have left
it IN 100% of the time). It is a new SimpleTech 80MB card; the only time I
HAD benn having it out was when I put the EXP modem card in for acCIS.

With no card IN, the function returned to the old standard function (as it
had been with the EXP card in last year): the file requester works in all
applications that use it.

That said and done, I tried following up Jeff's suggestion above. I
discovered that REMming out the "jinifont" line in AUTOEXEC.BAT resulted
in having double-enter in filer successfully start the selected file in
the appropriate application. It does NOT work if the 80MB flash card is
IN, however, because the double-enter trick brings up the file requester,
locking up the machine.

I would be EXTREMELY interested in suggestions that would enable me to
leave the 80MB card IN, and still have my file requester work.

And, like Jeff, also EXTREMELY interested in suggestions that would allow
"point and shoot" in Filer to work with (in my case) jinifont.

All the talk of tinyprog et all has me wondering who on the list
uses good old xine?

It is burned into rom, so doesn't cost any space, it works fine
for me and you can even read the contents of a text file to the
screen using xine filename.ext con (unfortunately, I don't know
how to make it pause screenfulls!)

Also, somebody mentioned using xcopy from dos 6.x and I have to
wonder why when the palmtop has a dos 5.0 copy in rom?

Try out this boolean simulator:

I have installed it an run it from my 200LX, so I know it works on one.

How can this be?  I thought that palmtops have been running SC for years
before the latest LX-tailored version came out.  In fact, seems like this
was covered in the PTP a couple of years ago - comparing SC and DOSSHELL.
Exactly what won't run?

Tried it.  Made no difference.  That is: PNS works when the font is remmed
out and does not when it is functional.

One question:  Are you using both PNS and a font together?  If so, could
you send me a copy of your autoexec.bat.file?

Thanks.

THE HACK - 15 AUGUST

As of today I'm aware of three different organizations that have
already developed or who are developing a software patch to
enable the Ericsson SH888 to link directly to the 3Com Palm III.

The first is from Ericsson which will no doubt be the De Facto
patch as and when available.  I just checked their mobile site
and still no mention of a solution.

Secondly SmartCode Software's French office produced a
hack on behalf of Palm Europe to get around the non-
communications problem and to enable Palm to demonstrate
 the solution at the recent CeBIT exhibition, I've not seen this
one either.

And finally IrLINK from IS/Complete in the USA hacked a
little program together.  I've been working with beta versions.
 The aim and advantage of IrLINK is that it is not device
(SH888) specific and is intended to work with any program
that normally uses RS-232 off the pilot, output can easily be
redirected to either IrDA or HP-SIR protocols without any
coding using the menu options.

For the release version I suggested they add a 'Discover'
mode thus enabling you to point your Palm III at any IrDA
compatible device and as long as it was active you stood
a good chance of getting a plain English response back
on the screen.  Well they did add it yesterday, and I've just
 been walking around my office pointing the Palm III at HP
printers and digital phones getting sensible responses
such as 'HP340' and 'SH888' thus proving the ports are active.

If you are desperate to get hold of IrLINK then contact
them at http://www.iscomplete.com

Thanks for the reply.  You mean press Menu and the shift key?  That didn't
work.  I tried all sorts of combinations of Menu and other keys,  the
closest I got was selecting from the cursor to the end or beginning of the
file.  Must be something strange with this program.  Oh well, I can do
without.

Same here.  When I am running 1st Reader wit MaxDos, and am alarm goes
off, my system reboots itself.   I also have a double speed 200LX.  I
just consider it a momentary inconvenience though, and a rare ocurrence
because I don't have that many alarms set.

OK -- that was the hint that led to the solution. I had a custom alarm tune
-- once I used a standard beep the problem went away. It seems that if you
use custom alarms, you must use PlayEX.

Thanks for the help.

Of course, you can keep the PIM application data on C: and use F: for
Other Stuff.  That's what I do and it works great for me; just like
when I kept all that Other Stuff on a flash EEPROM card as A:.

I never considered gcc on the palmtop, for the memory reason. Also, it's
pretty inefficient in other ways (gnu: the "Microsoft of unix").

But I'd guess that the DOS version would require a 286 - ie not run on the
XT of a hp200lx, inefficiencies regardless.

Hey Frankie,
Nobody said it couldn't be done, just that
it's more convenient. Most aplications load
and look in c: till you modify it, why go
against the tide?  Why split the apps in one drive and the data in
another? That's why
they made the switch charoo pgm.  What
advantage do you see for spliting it?  Ever

okay, do it your way.

You can also try using the numeric keys, remember the full-sized keyboard
uses the numeric pad for cursor movement with the numlock off.

I have been using PNS200 with the Andrew3 font for some time now with no =

problems. It works fine with the built in apps, and with "external"
programs.

My AUTOEXEC.BAT loads the font before Buddy, Buddy being the last
thing loaded.

Are you sure you have the FILER.INI and PNS200.INI files correctly =

configured in the C:\_DAT directory? Check the PNS200 DOC file.

About 300 to 400 pounds unconnected in England.
(or around 120 quid with a one year contract).
Nice phone, had one for a week till I discovered how
much effort was required to get it working with the HP.
Thanks Ericsson.

Holla,
Beg to differ, I found a copy of SC in the cutout bin of my favorite
pre-owned software shop($.79) version 5.03, and it works well enough.
From what I read here, you lose the ability to call the built in
programs with the blue keys(?) that the palmtop version has, but gain
a neat little clipboard feature called "snap-n-snip."
It is nice to move from WP to Agenda in the virtual blink of an eye.

I recently had the SAME problem: resolved that easily by using a
so-called 'contact-spray'.

Switch off the machine, use the spray gently around the key. Press the
key a couple of times (30-40) and then power on the machine and see
whether problem is solved. In my case I had to repeat the above
descriped step a second time. Afterall problem resolved within 2
minutes.

where xxxxxxxx is always different figures.

Then the 200LX is stug, keyboard etc is all refusing to continue. Hard

because I am using rechargeable batteries.

Anyone figure out what is going on ?

Years ago I read Pirsig's "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" and
enjoyed it a great deal. If you are unfamiliar with the book, it is one of the
classics of this century, maybe of all time. It's not really about Zen or
Motorcycle Maintenance, but more a man's quest for truth. It really makes you
think. OK, on to the palmtop angle:

I wanted to read the book again, but on the palmtop this time. However, it is
still copyrighted and is not readily available in etext. I did an exhaustive
net search and turned up a bunch of dead ends until finally I found it in HTML
format. I won't carry it on SUPER, of course, but I would like to share the
link hoping that the availability in the electronic version might cajole a few
palmtoppers into reading it. Somehow I really don't think Robert would mind...

Great day in the morning.
Good read indeed, excellent tip. What do
you use for a HTML reader on the LX?

and what about The dancing Wu Li Masters?
or even The Tao of Physics?

For those that don't know the meaning of zen
and bykes, there is an outstanding expo in:
GUIDEBOOK TO ZEN AND THE ART OF
MOTORCYCLE MAINTENANCE. by
R.L.di Santo and T.JSteel Phd.1974.

GNU's gcc only compiles 386 or better CPU's. so you couldn't use it anyway.

The source code should not be machine specific, so if you have a 16 bit

                Internal error reading clusters xxxx-xxxx.

                The Doc file says  its caused by a physical error on the

and ran NDD..No

                Is there anyone who knows what may have happened here?

a good read indeed.
Wouldn't hurt to start a litery
section would it?  It would enhance
the use of the LX. Like one more
function. A way to bring a good book
along to read or reread on my long trips.

At the very least, how about links
to cyber libraries?

Let's look at what you wrote before, about why the "default"
configuration seems to be to swap drive letters:

# Because some files like sysaps
# looks for its files on c: and if the
# files aren't there you in deep
# water........ and the pgm don't woik.

OK, my reading comprehension isn't quite up to the way you write, but
I read that as you thinking it's necessary to swap the drive letters.

And I guess it is sometimes -- there are some oddball MS-DOS apps out
there that figure C: must be The Hard Disk.  But I don't use any like
that.

It works better for me -- I'm just used to having the basic PIM stuff
(phone book, appt book, stuff that has to be in C:\_DAT) in one place
and other stuff out on another larger drive.  Said other stuff is
MS-DOS applications and their data, as well as some other large GDB
databases.

Once upon a time I think the rationale was that I kept the essential
PIM stuff on C: where it wouldn't be removed with the flash card.

When I got my palmtop back from Times2Tech, it had the swap driver
in there.  I tried it, decided I'd rather have F: be the big drive
(like I used to have A:) and pulled it out of config.sys.

Can't say that I have.  Personally I blame clean living and
frequent backups.

But that's one of the big wins of the 95LX/100LX/200LX: in six years
of using them I have never lost the stored files.  The only times I've
had to use my backups have been when I was moving data to a new
palmtop.

What are these language databases? I never heard of such things before.
I made a little database of Mandarin words in Notemaker once, but that
was "homemade" and quite limited. Is there a commercial product of this
kind?

As a matter of fact, I do have a database files with english, Bahasa
Indonesia. It was part of an old dos dictionary with an own search program
that only worked when the floppies were used at boot up. I have the files
from a to y (do not know what happened with the z). The text files contain
the english words with an Indonesian translation separated by a comma, every
new word on a new sentence.  I know that with the original program you could
also look up the english translation for a Bahasa Indonesian word. I always
wanted to try and make a search program for it to use it on my Palmtop but I
never came to it. If you want to play with it, give me an email.

Try "xine filename.ext con | more".  MORE.COM is the DOS break up the

Erm, ah?  What about setver?  SETVER.EXE is a part of DOS 5.0.
It's a TSR that fakes the DOS version request made by a program
in its databese.  You can tell one program ver 3.0, another one
can be told 4.0.  When I tried deltree from 6.2 a few days back,
I fully expected to fire up setver and tell deltree it was under
version 6.2.  It couldn't have cared less though.

I searched a few years ago for a SPICE version that I could compile and
get running on my palmtop.  Seems like I found one, but I never got it
100% running - problem was lack of time as I recall, not technical in
nature.  I'll see if I can dig it up.

Okay. I'm getting sick of my terminal programs. So:
I would like everyone's personal favourites, opinions, whatever.
Basically, it has to be small, fast, and support vt100 and zmodem.

The ones I've used.
* Bananacom 2.x : fairly fast, fairly small, has disappearing cursor bug.

* Bananacom 3.0 : tad slow, freezes sometimes, time limit of 7 days.

* Lync 3.0 : Small, fast (great program) but doesn't seem to display vt100
        correctly when I run lynx (the unix browser) over a terminal            session.
(Maybe it only supports ansi?)

* Conex : okay size, okay speed, has really funny (annoying) color scheme.
        Useable, though.

* Panther : kind of an odd program, big tho. Freezes from time to time.

Anyone's comments are appreciated. I can also point anyone to these
programs, should they wish to try them out themselves. =)

Truly an interesting book. Although you can pick up a few tidbits

Another good book is the "Seawolf" by Jack London. He was really
in to Darwin and the "survival of the fittest" thing.

Does anyone know the exact name of the processor that the HP uses. I
know that it's an 80C186 but is it the 186EA or 186XL or just the plain
old 186.  It probably says it right on the chip but I haven't opened my
palmtop.

I looked at the pictures on hplx.net but I couldn't read the lettering

Have I missed the intent of this thread?  While I have used procomm on
the 200LX, it was just to see if it would work.  I use the built-in
datacomm app most of the time.  It sends and receives files using a
number of formats, and has always served my pusposes reasonably well.
Perhaps there is a shortcoming that I have overlooked?

I have ten (10) communication programs in my palmtop.  See if you

 1.) Datacomm (built-in... VT100, the works, very nice)
 2.) Procomm Plus v2.01 (best comm prog ever written.)

I just reread your ad and misread it the first time.  Sorry, I thought

Recognition of SysMgr appications was added. Without this,
you'd risk opening the same file in two Workareas, and
instantly corrupting it. Also, the special keys recognition
was added.

As I heard it, the Carousel re-work for Palmtops was
commissioned by Stanley Kubrik of the 2001 movie fame. I have
no idea if it is correct.

Ed Tolson and his wife, the authors, were again recently
commissioned for another re-work to create version 7.0x by the
Palmtop Paper.

On that topic, is there a converter available that reformats the .prc
(palm-pilot etext format) files into plain ASCII text.  The Pilot has
gained enough steam to motivate numerous copyright holders of various
works to release Palm Pilot versions of their texts.  I'm on the verge of
buying one (they really are slick little machines with a user group
ALMOST as cool as this one) for this feature but there is surely some way
to make them readable on the 200lx.

My favorite is BananaComm 3.0b, which is the lean version available on
S.U.P.E.R.. I worked with the author when he was trimming it for use on
the palmtop. It sure beats the heck out of the slooooow DataComm app
which is built-in.

There are several versions of MakeDoc that will do that. I have a java version
that I run under Linux and it works fine. I would bet that there is a DOS
version out there somewhere.

The best thing would be to add support for PRC files in VR, but I don't think
Gilles has done any updates in a long time.

Turns out this was the problem.  I opened it up, cleaned the gold side of
the connector with 2-propanol and it worked fine.  The downside is that
I tried to tighten the screws first and accidentally destroyed one.  For
your general knowledge, the screws appear to be M1.5, 4 mm length, torix
head, approx .3 mm thread spacing.  I'll try to find some...

Thanks!

Just a quick note to pass on....

Got a flyer in the mail from AMD. It had things about their latest
happenings like a new fab, the K6-2, etc. But the thing that caught
my eye was a chip called the Am186CC. I kept reading it as an 80186
replacement. No PCMCIA on board though. The blurb was short and so
seems the web page:
http://www.amd.com/products/lpd/comm86/comm86.html

JFYI. Cheers!  -Curtis

Hi.
I use HELV, one of the fonts from the FontStuff collection on SUPER.  It
works fine with Buddy.

The program which you are looking for is "HisWord" written by Tom Hoover.  Tom
has a web sight from which it can be down loaded.  (can't remember the URL off
hand.  if no one else has it, let me know & I'll find it.)  It is a really
super program.  I highly recommend it.  Also, The On Line Bible program will
run, too -- as long as you hav the latest program file.  I occasionally use
the OLB instead of HisWord for specialized searches which Tom has not yet
implemented.

Find it.  You'll like it.  Let me know if I can help.

Yes, even a home brewed copy of GDB is a welcome. I am more interested in
Bahasa Indonesia, Malay and other asian languages as I travel more
frequently to these places. I do use travel guide, but if someone has
already done some input on the 200lx, I would like to beg for a copy.

Thanks.

As soon as I am home again (8 hours from now) I will send you the files in a

self extracting file of about 139 kb. I assume that the english part has to
be corrected by an native english speaker because I found some highly
unusual words. Being dutch I do not posses the necessary knowledge.
The database has some words which are really double dutch to me. Think that
the search engine of the HP database is good enough to use for this
dictionary.

Couldn't get it to work using the numeric keys either, I think I tried all
combinations.

Someone asked what the complete problem was.  I'm trying to select text in
a DOS program (ftp://ftp.parallaxinc.com/pub/parallax/stamp2.exe).
Shift-arrow doesn't work as it should.

Thanks for all the suggestions,

Dan, programming BASIC Stamps w/ 200lx sounds cool. I almost got some of
their stuff last year. Still might, if I find time. I hope you invent
something cool for the 200lx community!

I recently discovered Toddy, and it looks really, really neat, but I can't get
it to work under DOSShell.

If I load it in the autoexec, Toddy /II /MRC:\_dat\toddy.mac (insert mode,
loads my saved macros) it works just fine before DOSShell is loaded, or if
DOSShell is loaded then exited, but it won't work in a dosshell DOS shell!

It has command line history, completion, file completion, macros, and who
knows what else...  :)  Takes up about 6.6k, but DOSKeys took up 5.2k with my
macros, so hey...

Good one to try if you haven't!  The URL my computer says I got it from is
http://freeflight.com/wrotniak/hplx/toddy.zip   (The homepage of the author of
EX..)

Someone let me know if they have any idea how to get it working with
DOSShell.. Thanks! :)

It's an ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit), which integrates
the 186 core plus many other blocks (PCMCIA controller, DRAM controller,
and so on).

I guess what you expect to get is the datasheet. Forget it, if there's any,
HP will not release it. All the available info about the ASIC is in the
developer's manual.

AFAIK there are two reasons for nonworking keys:

1) Only one key fails always and your unit has never been
opened or upgraded, and putting more pressure on this
particular key helps. Then it is likely, that you have a bad
key contact and a contact spray may help. No need to
disassemble the unit.

2) More than one key fails from time to time and your unit has
been upgraded and putting pressure on the lower right corner of
the case (*NOT THE KEY*) helps, then you have a bad keyboard
cable connection and contact spray does not help. You have to
open the unit, clean the connector and make sure that it has
good contact after closing the unit again.

To keep yor keeys clean is like
keeping yor body healthy. Do PM
(Preventintive medicine/maintenance)
periodically and consistantly.  In
the kase of the keys, use an air can
to blow away the gunk and lint that
accumulates at the edge of the keys.
It keeps the kontacs kleaner longer.

Content-Type: text

A little off topic, but perhaps some of the DOS experts will know the
answer...  I notice that one can select different word widths for the
COM port - most common values are 7 and 8 bits.  But you can also select
5 bits, which is what one would use with a Baudot coded terminal.  Does
DOS (either the BIOS or DOS iteself) have any support for other codes
besides ASCII?  What about Baudot?  Anyway to turn on/off recognition
of a Baudot device attached to a COM port?

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Like most people, I've been _faithfully_ reading my HPLX listserver
messages for about the last 12 months.  And I've blissfully ignored
anything about the built-in application Palmtop Quicken since I wasn't
using it.  Well, low and behold!  I've started to use it now and I would
like to "import" my files to my Quicken 98.  Well when I tried to do that,
I noticed how Intuit has decided to IGNORE transferring the old "PDT"
format to the new QIF format (thank you very much......NOT!).

So now my dilemma.  Does anyone know of a PDT to QIF converter application?
I'm not a "power" user of Quicken, and I don't want to transfer files back
and forth.  I only want to transfer files one way........to my laptop and
Quicken 98 so I can use the expanded capabilities of Quicken 98 to sort,
print and view charts.

TIA

I purchased Pocket Quicken Connect direct from Intuit back in April and use
it every day with Quicken 98 to transfer / synchronize my pocket quicken
with Quicken 98.  Works great, it installs as an icon on the Quicken98 menu
bar.  I suggest you contact them directly since the last time I looked on
their web site I couldn't find reference to it.  I think it was something
like $69.00 but I don't remember for sure.

Subscriber Comments: A friends lx200 is broken a the hinge.  So we sent
it to the local hp centre and the estimate came to the cost of a new
one..

Huh, so I opened the palmtop, repaired and reinforced the joints and it
was almost as good as new.  But my ichy fingers made me spray some wd40
lubricant at the hinge to loosen it up.   After that, day by day, more
and more lines started appearing on the screen.  I figured that
lubricant being an electroliytic, actually shorted the connections to
the lcd screen.  So I washed with alcohol to remove the lubricant.
Upon reinstalling, the screen went completely blue. I then totally
dismantled the lcd, but it still does not help. I can see that the
computer is still functioning ok as I can see a vague outline of the
different dialog screens as we press the various buttons. Does anyone
have an idea what I could do next, short of sending it back to HP
service centre? Thanks Lawrence

Folks,

I've been looking for a freeform database such as MemoryMate as described
by Jim Seymour in his 1991 book "PC Productivity Bible".

What I found is a program called askSam. The company still sells the DOS
version but as with many others their main focus seems to be the Windows
version. Their brochure is way to long to send by way of this list.
I wrote to check system requirements.
=========================edited reply=============
From: Jim Hartman <jhartman@asksam.com>
Thank you for your return inquiry.  The DOS Version requires the following:
DOS 3.0 or higher  1 Mg. Hard Disk Space  384 Kb of RAM
You can run it on a 186 with a CGA screen.
================================================

The pricing is however rather high

===askSam Price List
Windows Products askSam 3.0 ..................... 149.95
                 askSam Professional ............ 395.00

DOS PRODUCT:       askSam 5.1 .................... 395.00
=====================================================

I wrote and suggested they re-evaluate their pricing on the DOS product.
If this product is something you might like I would encourage you to write
to Mr. Jim Hartman <jhartman@asksam.com>
and tell him the same thing.

Jim,

It is built into your Palmtop version of Quicken. I use it daily.
Open quicken, back out to the account screen.  Select menu
the export a screen asking what dates to export will appear. Select the
dates you want and then ok.

To what site are you refering?  I could only find the KJ (AV) file on Tom
Hoover's site.  Where are you seeing the RSV and NIV versions?

You're experience with their site is completely opposite from mine.  I had
a *very* simple question regarding my Turbo Tax program (how to enable the
cents, instead of rounding to the nearest dollar). I searched their site
for an hour and just gave up.  I didn't find it at all helpful.  Couldn't
even find an e-mail address to send my query to.  Sigh....

hello fellow lxers,

If any of you are looking for the model xj1144 pcmcia modem I ordered and
received three from resource concepts inc. They have a web site at
www.resourcesales.com.  I called and ordered mine. They are only $10 each!!!  I
don't know what the shipping is for one but they only charged me $6.96 to ship
the three I puchased for my 200lx and for the 200lx my wife uses (plus a spare at
that price!). I had no trouble getting them to work with the data comm app and I
am typing this using ms-kermit for dos under dos and it seems quite happy.  I
did not get any docs or rj11 cables but at this price I guess you can't complain and
I must add that one of the units did not work well but Resource has provided an RMA for
an exchange. It would have been discouraging if that would have been the only one I'd
ordered because it would have led me to believe it would not work with my LX.
Fortunately the other two function ok.

I'm sorry I do not know the current draw for this model but I know an associate who
purchased one of these NEW for his LX and he has used it successfully for over a year
so I felt it was a safe choice. I hope to borrow his documentation and glean such specs
and optional "AT" commands in the coming weeks.

When I placed my order with Resource Sales via telephone they said they had a
bunch of 'em and they said if they didn't work for any reason they would credit
my account on return.  Here's the complete ordering info:

They are ( especially Teletypes ) !.   Some Amateur Radio equipment is still
Baudot, and I suspect that the "TDD" Terminals for the deaf are Baudot.

Can someone explain to me what sort/lx does?

I see that it does a backup of the address file, which is nice.  But
when it says that it is sorting, what is it doing?  Alphabetizing?

Thanks

I have been at the forefront of technology all my life, thanks in no small
part to HP products. Now, however, I am humbled by my colleagues as they
whip out their 3Com palm pilots and synchronize to their Outlook
appointments on our corporate desktops.

I have tried the CE machines, and find that they give "reverse engineering"
a new meaning.. So I sit punching in Outlook appointments on my LX200
waiting for some innovative spirit to make us a sync. utility that doesn't
involve batch file gymnastics of Olympic proportions.

There must be someone out there willing to take my good money in exchange
for an Exchange connection!

The 200LX runs (almost) all the software I need, is small enough to pass
off as my brain in reserve, and lasts a fourthnight on a charge. I am not
adverse to change, and would gladly buy a new PDA if only it was a step up
on the evolutionary ladder. Unfortunately the pinnacle position of the
200LX makes that unlikely to happen within the next 12 months.

So I challenge all you C++ jocks out there: Get your Briefs out and start
wringing out some  useful code!

Hopefully yours,
Paul R.

WD-40 is *NOT A LUBRICANT*!.  WD stands for water displacement.  That's
why people used it (before fuel injection) to spray on their
distributors and spark plug wires to help a car start in the wet.  I
forget what's in it, but it could leave some residue that is shorting
something out.

This topic comes up all the time on the .bicycle newsgroups.  Don't use
WD-40 on your bike chain either.  A good bike lube like tri-flow
(includes teflon) works fine on my lx's hinges.

Ummm...  As far as I can remember, Spice 2g6 works on the Palmtop...  It's
been a while since I've tried it, but I am pretty sure it worked.  Although,
it was faster to write the code on the palmtop, find the modem, dial a
computer on campus, upload it to the computer, strip the <CR>'s, and run the
spice on the remote machine on my code piped into a file, and then download
that file for the answer.  :)

There are a few different ones out there, three or four I tried..
circan10.zip has two analysis programs in it, neither I bothered to tool with,
but perform circuit analysis.  I'd suggest you trying Shareware.COM, search
for spice on DOS platform.  The last entry is spice2g6, ignore the 'directory'
it's listed as being in, os2.

Also, Yahoo, search for spice circuit analysis, then click on web pages.
You'll find lots of references, one of them appears to be the official Spice
homepage.

What's wrong w/batch file gymnastics?  Seems like it would be easier to
just run a batch file rather than all that pointing, clicking and dragging
that is required of GUI-based OS's.  I would much rather have a batch file
to run that would perform the sync-ing operation than rely on my error-prone
fingers to click the right sequence of buttons each and every day!

I have recently embarked on a project to do just that.  I too want a way to
sync up Outlook98 and my HP200lx, without entering everything twice.  My
intent is to be as close to "one button" as I can get, and still allow some
flexibility of field mapping, although I am not sure what that would really
buy us.  This will wind up being a share ware product with a nominal
registration fee.  I have almost finished documenting a process which will
allow a temporary one way, Outlook98 to HP200 transfer of data using the
connectivity pack and other freeware / shareware utilities.  This process is
not what I intend to ultimately provide, but it will allow transfer of
Outlook98 data to the HP200 in a fairly simple manor.  I will try to send
this out by the end of this week.  The current problem I am having with the
this temporary process involves the calendar.  I will keep this list posted
as to the progress.  You can send me private email with suggestions or post
them to the list.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I was wondering if anyone had ever seen a GPS program for the 200lx with the
following characteristics:

Ability to graphically show you where you are in the world (think of the HP
world time app)
Ability to graphically show you the cities closest to you, and a rough idea
of terrain.

I love street level maps, but most (almost all) the time I just want an idea
of where in a country I am. It's kind of a macro-level approach. Plus it's
something I think would fit in my palmtop all the time, rather than loading
up or building small maps from my laptop. The closest I would want to zoom
in is 100 square kilometers. Anything beyond that and I will build
street-level maps.

Yep, should be great if it works...what better way to program this
easy-to-use uC than using a palmtop?  I have used an 87C51 at work and want
to play around with a uC at home, but don't want to buy a programmer,
eraser and certainly not an In-Circuit Emulator.  The BASIC Stamp seems
like a good solution.  If you want to try a Stamp, don't buy their kit.
The software and documentation is free for the downloading and the cable is
easy to make.  I'm just going to buy the Stamp itself (BS2-IC).

Clock Program (CLKB)

Relief! Jeff's problem did not have anything to do with CLKB.

I have uploaded a new set of TSR clock programs to Super: one for the all=

PC's (except LX), one for laptops with APM and one for the LX. =


In all versions: to see the date for two seconds, press the ALT key. I ca=
n
never remember which date it is.

The versions for HP-LX and laptops with Advanced Power Management system
(most newer laptops) have been changed so they now display the battery
level continuously. It began to irritate me that I had to wait up to
nearly a minute whenever it scrolled off the screen.

Following Walther's and David's advice, I have included a simple config
program for the HP-LX version, which will allow you to change the
maximum voltage to reflect the type of battery you are using. The
default is still 3V (alkaline batteries) but you can now change that to
any (reasonable) voltage. For my NiCd batteries, I use 2.7V.

Hey Patrick
Do you have a bunch of street level maps?
Would like to have a few of your better
ones.  would you mind telling me your
procedure of how you do them.

My problem is that no matter what I do I
can't get them small and readable.
Like 10-20K and still read street names.
It would be a big help.  Maybe my scanner
is not up to it?

SC has been available for a couple of years on the HP Palmtop and we
reviewed it in PTP when it first became available -- the review you are
referring to. Interestingly enough, HP 200LX user, Stanley Kubrick (2001
Space Odyssey) encouraged SC authors to make the port from the PC to the
Palmtop.

About a year ago, the SC authors went out of business and stopped
supporting their product. I did a search on the net and located the
email address of one of the authors. We negotiated a price, they made a
few bug fixes, and Thaddeus Computing has become the distributor for the
product.  The PC version won't run on the Palmtop.

From what I read here, you lose the ability to call the built in
programs with the blue keys(?) that the palmtop version has, but gain
a neat little clipboard feature called "snap-n-snip."
It is nice to move from WP to Agenda in the virtual blink of an eye.>>

That is news to me (obviously<g>). I am surprised. The authors
explicitly took the clipboard out in the Palmtop version because of
incompatibilities.  Probably a trade-off because the palmtop version
supports the application keys and the alarm clock.

Subject:      LISTSERV commands?

Hi All,

I'm about to take a quick "out of office" break 10ish days, or so.

In other LISTSERVs I've belonged to, like this one, you were able to send
commands to the Listserver that would return LOTS of cool automatic info.
One message like:

"GET INFO" (minus the quotes)

would give you the basic instruction sheet to execute these commands.

Will:

"SET NOMAIL"

work for this list and temporarily turn things off?  I don't want you all
SPAMMed by my out off office message, but the list may get it once, late WED
or early THURS, if I don't resolve this one.

We use MS Exchange server and I don't know how/know of a DOS-based version
of exchange for me to remotely log into the server w/ my palmtop and read my
mail ÝÝwould like to hear of a way to do this too¨¨.

TIA

Subject: COM Port - Codes?


A little off topic, but perhaps some of the DOS experts will know the
answer...  I notice that one can select different word widths for the
COM port - most common values are 7 and 8 bits.  But you can also select
5 bits, which is what one would use with a Baudot coded terminal.  Does
DOS (either the BIOS or DOS iteself) have any support for other codes
besides ASCII?  What about Baudot?  Anyway to turn on/off recognition
of a Baudot device attached to a COM port?

Send the message:

set hplx-l nomail

to listserv@uconnvm.uconn.edu and it will send you a confirmation that you
will no longer receive messages from the list, until you send a 'set
hplx-l mail' message to turn it back on.

DUH!
Thanks Patrick...and to others that replied.  I was looking for the IMPORT
command and didn't think to try the HPLX EXPORT command on the LX.  Works
fine.  Can you import Credit Card accounts too?  Still learning.   I did
notice that you have to name the file with a "QIF" extention since it did
not default to that.

Jim,

It is built into your Palmtop version of Quicken. I use it daily.
Open quicken, back out to the account screen.  Select menu
the export a screen asking what dates to export will appear. Select the
dates you want and then ok.

Your windows version of Quicken will import the resulting QIF files.

Hi all

I have an XJ1144 Megahertz modem with a brocken (cracked) XJack.

Does anyone know where I can get the actual part as a spare??  The modem
works fine..Just the connector mechanism..  I've tried gluing and its too
fragile to be of long term use.

Any ideas?

TIA

Russell,

As a last resort, I have a really bad idea. Get an extender from Radio
shack. Attach the pug on the extender to the broken xjack and glue it ALL
together.  Then just plug the line into the other end of the extender.

This problem, I've always been able to fix by cleaning out under the key

The USGS has a global terrain database that is on a 1km x 1km grid,
just altitude data - occupies over 2GB.

OK that cuts the size down to 200MB and if you throw out all the
oceans (not as trivial as it sounds as the data set is just altitude
values on a regularly spaced grid) you are down to a 70MB global data
base - still with no city data included. I guess you could prune it
further to just the continent/country you are in. Would culling the
city database from the builtin world database be sufficient?

I have something I wrote that does most of this (except the GPS input) =
for the
full 2GB data set running on my desktop. Unfortunately it is a Windows
Fortran 90 application (yes really!). I think the palmtop version needs
to be in C to take advantage of the PAL libraries. I have been meaning
to dig myself into C for sometime now - just really busy. Hmm how long
can you wait<G>?

I have a list of Portuguese words that can be processed for use with
the PE for spell check purpose. I've done the processing but never
tested. May be in future. I don't write very much in the HPLX, but in
the desktop I use WORD 7 with an excellent spell check and and
personal dictionary with about 15.000 words.

For mail I use the Spell Checker 3.0 with the same list of Portuguese
word. The Spell Checker is SW available at
http://clever.net/quinion/spell.

The Spell Checker as many foreign languages but Portuguese.

I never got a list of words equivalence in English-Portuguese.

If you want the Portuguese word list drop me a letter. It is in
public domain.

Subject:      batteries

Hello

I posted, a few months ago, about a set of NiMH batteries sold by
batteries plus. Well they are 1300 mAH batteries and work pretty
well but they have one defect. The terminals get corroded and they
will start giving you low battery messages after a few months. Clean
the terminals and they are fine. I also thought of a differant way
to find the current consumption of the 200LX and the average time
your batteries should last. Take the length of time the batteries
are charged divide that by the load current, and multiply
that by your average charging current. That should give you the average
length of time the batteries will last per use. It seems to work
at least the one time I tested my batteries with a clock seemed
to match up pretty well. Have a good one:).

Rick - is your method going to be limited to just 400 yards? I have a
need for something similar, but on a several miles scale (coastal

No need to, unless you need the unrestricted version. The MS-DOS version
of PSPICE is free of charge and works. From www.pspice.com as far as I
remember.

Hi All,

By a strange coincidence I am currently trying to improve the way I
use XINE (and was about to post a question on it myself) when the
subject of file compression comes up again.

On Sunday, 23 August 1998, David Lawrence wrote:-

I certainly use xine regularly, mainly for the same reasons that David
does.  In July of last year Pierre Vignaq and I discovered that we
both transform our files compressed by xine to filename.??x, the last
letter change to "x" being to indicate that the file is
xine-compressed.  According to some advice, you have to change the
name of the compressed file from its original form in any event, or
the file will be lost, but I have not found this to be so.

 Pierre passed on to me a very useful modification of xine to help
 minimise memory problems in having to type "xine <infile> <outfile>",
 including extensions.  He wrote a short batch file (PRESS.BAT) to
 cover the most commonly used types of file that he compresses, such
 as .doc, .txt, .wk1 etc.  This batch file reduces the typing to
 simply "press <filename>" without the extension.  PRESS.BAT invokes
 xine and, assuming that there is only one type of file with that name
 which the system can find, it compresses the file and adds the
 appropriate extension, such as dox, txx or wkx etc.  Because of the
 way that xine is written, the same file (without the extension in
PRESS. BAT) will be recognised by xine for decompression next time
that the name is used with PRESS.BAT which will add the original
extension back on again.  As Pierre would say: "Voila!"

The main disadvantage is that this set-up handles only one file at a
time.  Another disadvantage for me is that I have even more of a
memory problem in typing file names, especially as most of those that
I compress/decompress have very similar code names, the likelihood of
error in typing being thus increased.  I also have to remember to
delete the original file which xine leaves behind along with the
processed file.   So I tried to automate the process as much as
possible.

I have firstly changed Pierre's programme to simply X (that's easy
enough to remember if you can remember XINE; and Queenslanders can
remember XXXX for their favourite beer, after all).  Next, I have
tried unsuccessfully so far, to be able to easily paste in the
filename after first entering DOS and then typing x to get X started.
There are supposed to be some programmes that let you paste from the
clipboard to DOS but they have not worked for me.

I tried to get round this by using a macro.  The idea is that all you
would have to do would be to highlight the file in question in the
FILER and hit the macro.  Well, I have found a way to open a file in
MEMO or in 123, for that matter, simply by using a macro from the
FILER.  In the same way I can get a macro to store the name of the
selected file and I can get X or XINE to do the compression etc.
However, it is very cumbersome to get round.  You are left with using
a dummy file permanently set up in X and changing the name of your
selected file to match it, or you end up with the modified file in the
wrong directory.

What is needed is a method of highlighting the chosen file in FILER
and to be able to paste its name into the command line in DOS
(automatically if possible).

Just curious; what do you do that gets you in a situation where you don't
know what part of a country you're in??
My problem is always the opposite, I know roughly where I am, but don't
know the exact location.... :-)

Good to hear there are more of us out there!
Personaly I think along the following lines regarding a sync utility:
I make most of my appoitments in person, either when people phone me up on
my cellular, or when I meet co-workers around the office. Only 5% of my
appoitments are made by people requesting meetings in Outlook via the
network.
So, as my LX is my most portable device, I would like that to be my primary
tool, synchronizing with my Pentium only to satisfy curious co-workers
wondering how I spend my time. :-)

BTW, I don't keep to-do lists on the Pentium anyway.

Of course you're right Chris! I was thinking more along the lines of a
fully automated utility that didn't require the individual user to fiddle
with batch files. I've got nothing against batch files myself!

Hi Barry and list,

Nice to read that this so short contribution can still be a bit useful!
Best wishes for your improvement effort , and best regards from France!

Sincerely,

Pierre

Which requires the CDS from Nokia.
Which requires Win95 to run (bummer)
Which has problems under Win98.

(There is a solution in the works for the Psion5 so it
could be possible to do something for the HP)

It seems like a conspiracy that all the funky new GSM phones
just fail to work with the 200LX without some serious hacking.
(yes, I also tried the SH888 as well).

I've ended up going back to using a Psion gold card and an
8110i.  Slow at 9600 but fine for emails and a bit better
than the old aucoustic coupler I used to use.

As an aside I'm off again for a few months touring around
Europe so will have to once again sign off from this list.
I would like to thank you for the companionship and advice
I have received (even as a mostly passive participant) and
will pop my nose back in again when I've got a more
regular email account again.

Oh, and WWW/LX rocks <grin>.

I haven't seen any of them. Well, err, I just received Super Software
Carousel from Thaddeus, which is pre-configured to work from the C drive or
the A drive. The F drive was lacking... :-( Oh well, for the rest I haven't
encountered any software that insists to be on the C drive.

I'm doing the same thing, and even splitting up more. Basically, ALL my
critical data is on the C drive. The rest is on the huge F drive. This way,
I can easy do a daily backup by backing up only the C drive. The C drive
contains the stuff which is most frequently changed. The F drive needs a
backup only once in a while.

Apart from this, I *hate* to have something unusual like a Config.Sys on
the F: drive. It drives me and all the install software crazy. Speaking
about going against the tide...

Of course not !

The military still use it for one thing.  I guess because many new
systems had to interface to old 5-hole paper tape relay systems, they
still use 5-hole codes.  I used to enjoy seeing how fast you could type
on a teletype without overrunning it.  You get a nice rythmn, and blunt
fingers.

To be fair more and more is just Microsoft software run over military
communications.  I hope that does not worry anyone...

I've known it take MS exchange mail 24 hours to deliver e-mail a
distance that took 35 minutes to drive.  Of course the guy sending it
did not know that, so 6 hours later when he phoned the recipient to
chase up an answer...

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain

I am looking for some software for my HP95LX that performs the following
functions:

- receives NMEA183 data coming from a GPS through the serial port
- upon request, logs the most significant data (latitude, longitude, speed,
course,
distance to the next waypoint, etc.) to a file, so that it can be later
transferred to a PC
for further processing
- displays user definable information (for example, latitude and longitude,
or speed and
course, etc.) in real time, possibly using a large font so that it can be
read from a distance.

I am not interested in moving map features.

Does anybody know if there is some software available that performs all or
some of the above
functions ?

It looks like there is something available for the HP100 and 200, but what
about the 95 ?

Thanks a lot in advance for any information.

I've seen these modems advertised for as little as $10 on this list,
but I'd like to know what sort of Telephone plugs these modems come

What is the chance of me buying a cheap 14.4 PCMIA modem from the US
and it working in Australia.

A little pop-out RJ11 socket for an american phone cord.  You may find
the same connector on your fax machine, phone, what-have-you otherwise
you should be able to buy an anything to rj11 cable at your local
tricky-dickies (I'm assuming the Dick Smiths name is still around for
electronics bits).

Pretty good, just got one over here in England and it has also worked a
treat back home in NZ.

Don't try fixing it yourself; just send it in.  All of ours came with a lifetime warranty.  Our company has
had many of them repaired free of charge.  I just got one back from them about
2 months ago.

Megahertz is now a part of 3Com, but they still honor the warranty.  Just call
in advance (1-800-LAPTOPS) to get the return authorization and follow their
instructions.

Hi all

I have an XJ1144 Megahertz modem with a brocken (cracked) XJack.

Does anyone know where I can get the actual part as a spare??  The modem
works fine..Just the connector mechanism..  I've tried gluing and its too
fragile to be of long term use.

Any ideas?

TIA

I have MS Fortran 5.0 running on the 200LX.  Works great.  I don't know
if any of the Fortran 90 compilers would work or not...

I'll certainly check into this.  The one big problems as I remember was
that the .exe file had to be compiled with floating point emulation.

I have seen this, even in some "modern" apps.  For example, my Street

when I chose anything except C, it would install but not work!

Your table seemed to imply there were 6 bits to baudot - in fact there
are only 5.  The difference between letters and figures was the two
special SHIFT keys, LETTERS and FIGURES.  I presume the codes in your
table for the figures should really be identical to their corresponding
entry in the letters section, of course preceeded by a FIGURES code.

Great minds think alike, I use my HP everywhere I go, it is the master of
everything but for the time being I either have to enter everything twice,
or live with out of sync calendars and phone books.  The primary goal is to
allow either the HP or Outlook to be the master PIM. The secondary goal is a
self contained application which does not rely on intermediate database's or
spreadsheets to perform the sync process.  In other words, a utility that
once it is configured will allow "one button" synchronization of the HP and
Outlook.  In the mean time, I have figured out how to get  Outlook and the
HP in sync with Outlook as the master using the tools that are already
available.  I have a minor problem with the calendar at this time, but I
will publish the procedure in a few days.

Sorry for the incomplete information last time.

On checking the box, I discover that Megahertz offered a 5-year warranty, not
lifetime.

For those of you outside the United States, you can reach 3Com by calling
their main number 1-408-764-5000.

I have wanted to try this, but I don't know how to disassemble the
keyboard.  When I've had my LX apart, the keyboard stayed intact, so I
didn't mess with it.  Is it difficult to take apart?

I'm looking to minimize my windows setup and i was using 3.0. everyone

With alll this talk of keyboards - I have a question.

With EVERY 100 or 200LX I've owned, at least 1 key has had an odd "sound".
If you listen carefully, when you press the key, there is what I think of
as a "crinkling" sound - almost as if there is loose, thin, plastic,
under the key(s). This has NEVER caused a problem, the keys work fine,
with no repeat or hesitation.

Perhaps someone familiar with the internals of the keyboard can explain
what is actually happening.

Thanks.

Right now it's pretty infrequent but in past tech support jobs I've
literally been bounced through 4-5 countries in 4-5 days. Nothing like
waking up in the morning and not remembering what continent you are on, much
less what country or city.  :)

I usually know where I am, but what I don't know is what I'm near. As a for
instance, I recently had to take a quick trip out to Palm Springs, CA. I
knew where I was, but what interested me more was how close I might be to
San Francisco or Los Angeles or Phoenix. After pulling out my laptop and
starting up Streets98 it told me, but this kind of thing only works in the
U.S., plus it's more computer stuff than I wanted to carry. What I'm looking
for is more of a global solution that can fit in my palmtop.

Now if there's some software out there that gives me global street-level
detail and can fit in my palmtop, I'll take that too. :)

No, unfortunately I don't. I tend to lose them (or delete them) after I'm
finished, usually because I'm running out of space.

For U.S. maps, I have Streets98 and Street Atlas 5 loaded on my laptop. I
pull up the area I'm interested in, copy it to the clipboard, save it to
disk, then manipulate it with a program called Graphics Workshop. It's easy,
so I think that may be why I don't keep them.

So far I haven't had the opportunity to make a map outside the U.S. the ones
I've needed were either available for download or put me in a place where I
didn't need (or couldn't use) a map or GPS.

Subject:      CPACK/FILER Busted! Help!!!
Content-Type: text

HELP!!!  All of a sudden, without warning, my CPACK/FILER program
quit working!  I press ENTER when FILER is selected, and the screen
goes blank briefly, then returns to the main APP MGR just as nothing
happened.  I can start other applications, such a PHONE, MEMO, XLATE,
etc...  This is a pretty serious matter for me, as I use FILER almost
exclusively to transfer files to/from my office computer.  In the
meantime, I can use the terminal program and it's built-in file
transfer capabilities, but I already miss my FILER.  Any ideas what
could cause this behaviour???

Does it still do this after you reboot the LX? (Ctrl-Alt-Del)

I use Framework-3 from Ashton-Tate, a circa 1987 integrated package and it
complains when it's started on the A drive because it thinks that's the
floppy and the C drive is supposed to be the hard drive.

I ended up starting FW3 from the E drive (done using an ASSIGN or SUBST to
drive A) and that keeps it happy, tho I'm sure most normal defaults for FW3
for harddisk installation is for drive C.

The point is that programs that show this problem are probably very old, and
were probably big (ie, needed multiple floppy disks to run). Little one
floppy programs probably didn't care which drive you used.

Not applicable... I'm talking about the FILER that runs on my desktop as
part of the CPACK collection of programs.

Does anyone have a connectivity pack for the 200LX they would like to sell?
Or even just the software for the PC itself.  I have cables.

I was just emailed the following. I imagine some on this list could
answer the question based on experience. If anyone responds I'll forward
it.

Thanks.

<<Hal,

I have had my eye on the programmers reference kit and PAL
routines you offer for the HP200LX.  I am a "recreational programmer"
only (for fun while I travel).  While I much prefer BASIC, I have given
up
finding a version of BASIC which will work correctly with the HP200LX's
ports
(I have been thru several, including FirstBASIC as recommended by Wayne
Yang
in the Jan/Feb 1998 PTP).

I may give C a try if I can do all the programming on the HP200LX.

1.      Which C Compliers are supported and run on the HP200LX entirely
        (debugging, linking, compiling, etc) right on the HP200LX?
        Note: I would probably use PalEdit for the source code work.

2.      Which C Complier would you recommend and where can I obtain one?
        Note: I have a copy of Microsoft C for DOS, circa 1988, but have

        not yet tried to get it to run on the HP200LX.

Thanks for your help.

        Regards,
        Bob Pigford

The problem was there are 10-15 files that are dependent on drive
specification. Some can be edited directly some must be edited within
the application.  One of the causes for the delay in shipping was making
sure the A and C drive version functioned correctly.  Three versions of
the software would have driven me nuts. Super SC takes a bunch of
independently written sw and ties them together, hence the dependence on
drive and subdirectory.

If there is much of a demand, now that SuperSC is "frozen", I can
probably create an F drive version.

I have had very good luck with the MIX Software Power C compiler.  The
price is right (still $19, I believe).  I haven't done any real-time
debugging with it, but the compile/link times are reasonably fast so
most debugging I do is with print statements.  I have also gotten
Turbo c++ v1.0 to run, but it's IDE was almost impossible for me to
setup with proper colors for the monochrome LCD.  Also, as I don't
use C++ very often, I have stuck with Power C.  Even use it on my
desktop for most short and simple little programs and utilities I
write.

MIX is the compiler I use, although I must admit I host it on my PII-350 NT
machine. Don't see any reason why it wouldn't work just fine (but much
slower) on the palmtop, though. It appears to have been developed back in
the old days when 640K was huge :-)

Probably the best C/C++ compiler would be Turbo C++ 1.01.  There are some
other freeware/shareware C compilers, like Power C and Mix C, and maybe
Microsoft QuickC would work, but Turbo C++ 1.01 is (in my opinion) the
best.  The only trouble is a) where to find it, and b) the cost.

That sounds like it would probably run.  If you're interested in Turbo
C++, you can use it legally by buying a newer version of Turbo C++ (like
3.0 for DOS or 4.5 for Windows, I believe).  Then you are allowed by
Borland to use either the new version or the old version.  Then the only
problem is finding it.  I believe one of the "abandonware" sites has it up
(think it's http://comports.com/hplx ) but be forewarned that downloading
it without owning a newer copy (which you don't use) would probably make
Borland mad.

From what Hal posted I gather this is a problem with the "Super" part
-- I prefer to do my own customization of the software I install (I
find that I usually have to anyway) and so ordered plain Software
Carousel.  Received it last Thursday, it installed in F:\SC without
problem, and it rocks!

This is one of the things that made me do away with the swap too.  I
tripped over it once on the first day and decided I would probably
trip over it again in future -- it's *hard* to break umpteen years of
conditioning that CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT go on C:\.  I didn't
even think about software getting confused.

Mike:

MicroSim sold their PSPICE product line to OrCAD.  I'm surprised that you
didn't find any mention of this on their web site.  Who is Interface
Technologies?  Never heard of them.  Anyway, you might want to check out
the OrCAD web site for more PSPICE information.

Right. SC can reside on any drive. Super SC at this point can reside on

Subject:      FoxPro colors again
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

I broke down and re-installed FoxPro, just to get it to that point in
the installation where it asks you what type of display you have,
because I got tired of fussing with colors and color sets and trying
to get them all to play together.  The previous (first) time I
installed it, I was doing it from a notebook PC with the LX sharing
its "disk" drives out via INTERSRV, and when the FoxPro installation
asked me for my display type I had told it to use the generic color
setup (CGA/EGA/VGA) because that's what the notebook has and that's
where the installer was running.  This time I ran it on the 200LX
(with the installation disks all loaded in one directory on a flash
card), picked Compaq Plasma (color) and got a much nicer default color
set for the 200LX screen with MODE CO80 in effect.

As a bonus, when I select Window->Color off the menu, I seem to be
able to see (load) several different color sets now, not just DEFAULT.
Not sure what I screwed up the first time around to leave it like
that, but last time I tried to do a minimal installation and this time
I let it install all of the optional files so I could play with the
samples.

I also find that it is now possible to re-select my color
configuration by running INSTALL2.BAT from the FoxPro directory, but I
think you need to let it overwrite your FOXUSER.DBF file for this to
work, and I'm not sure what you need to have loaded besides
INSTALL2.BAT and INSTALL.APP for this to work.  You can abort the
installation (by pressing ESC and answering Yes) when it gets to the
dialog about what optional components to load.

MODE CO80 seems to be much more likely to work than MODE MONO, MODE
BW80, and MONO8025.  I don't have to fiddle around to get the blinking
cursor and I don't find myself staring at blank screens for reasons I
don't entirely understand (and which sometimes seem to go away after
more fiddling with MODE BW80 and MONO8025) -- well, I have suspicions
that some of this software tries to autodetect the display adapter and
sees that the 200LX "has a CGA" even when one of the monochrome modes
is set, and so goes off and scribbles in the CGA's memory.

This is exactly what happens to me when I try to run CPACK in a DOS Box on
NT, though it should work in DOS.

You can easily automate Xine DE-compression through Filer on a 200LX if you
adopt the habit of naming your compressed files with a specific
three-letter extension, such as .XIN. Then it is simply a matter of adding
the following line to your C:\_DAT\FILER.INI :

     XIN=D:\BIN\XINE.COM %

(No, FILER.INI won't accept ??X as an extension; I tried it. However, you
can add multiple lines to FILER.INI to cover all likely extensions (like
.DOX, .TXX, BAX, EXX, COX etc.)

Just a quick thought, maybe it will spur you on to a complete solution.

I can verify that Microsoft QuickC works. It's what I use with PAL on the

Very interesting.... I *am* running on an NT machine, from within a DOS
box.  But, I've been doing this successfully for over 2 years now without
any problems.  Something must have happened today - must have awaken on
the wrong side of the bed, or something.

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi,

I just reviewed former discussions on the formatting subject, because I
had to reformat my 8MB smart-media cards (Olympus dig camera, 4KB
cluster) for use with the 200LX - and I wanted 512Byte clusters.

Now here's *the final info on formatting*  ;-)

I)
There is a DOS Partition Manager including formatting, sources, good
explanations and all you need as freeware from

 Mikhail Ranish
 ranish@intercom.com
 http://www.intercom.com/~ranish  or
 http://www.ml.brooklyn.cuny.edu/~mranish

Till now I didn't try the SW on my 200LX, because:

II)
The DOS format prgr which comes with W95 has an undocumented switch:

 FORMAT drive: /z:n          n=1,2,4,8,..
 where n is the number of sectors (512Byte) in a cluster.

(I got this from the German PC magazine 'PC-Welt' 10/97
 www.pcwelt.de or CIS: GO PCWELT)

If you agree that this is the final msg on formatting, please send me a
msg, otherwise please don't!   ;-)

Microsoft QuickC Pro (2.51a) does work, it's what I use on the
palmtop.  Well, at least it compiles C and assembles assembler.  The
IDE doesn't really get along all that well with the 200LX: you have to
press the ON key twice to turn the 200LX off, and the idle timeout
doesn't turn the 200LX off automatically.

Why do I use it?  It works better with the HP SDK, and my brain has
already wrapped itself around the horror that is NMAKE once so I can
do stuff with the makefiles.

I have always been very hesitant about adding a links collection to
palmtop.net. They are very hard to keep current and I have no way to control
what will actually show up when someone clicks them. I have a very few files
whose authors have requested that I link out to them rather than physically
carry the file on-server, but I prefer the latter.

Hi all,
   I was surprised when I called Marcam with my wallet
open to order a $109 20 mbyte flash card and they told me
1) the Simple cards would not work in a 100LX
2) and would not work with Stacker (any version)

I currently have a 100LX with a 5 Mbyte HP flash card
and Stacker 4.0.

20 would be neat but 10 with stacker would be OK, if it's
in the < $100 range.

Any hints?

Thanks,  Tony Armendariz

I'm not familiar with the Marcam card.  However, any flash card which
replicates an ATA drive can be made to work on your 100lx, if you have the
acecard driver.  Does the Marcam require a driver of its own?  The only reason
I can think of that Stacker would not word would be the Marcam card is already
compressed.  I have in the past used Stacker on 4 different cards with no
difficulty (other than the speed and overhead penalty -- which was well worth
it at the time.)  You should be able to find a REAL 16 meg compact flash (with
addapter) for little more than this questionable card, and stack it to 30+.

Good Luck,

Neither statement is true.  You can use the ST cards if you have access to
acecard.com and add it to your config.sys.

I stacked a 40 mb ST card, but couldn't get stacker to automatically load.
It did load, however, with the stacker.EXE (stacker anywhere) program, and
really performed well, but the memory it consumed was not acceptable, so I
quit using it.  I didn't really NEED the extra space.

I'd like to upgrade the memory in my 200lx but it has the hinge crack.
I've fixed it with the superglue technique described on this and other
lists.  I can start to see the hairline of the crack starting to
re-appear although there is no actual crack (yet).

Is it a good idea to put any money into a machine with the crack?  What
is the ultimate failure mode here??  I've made the hinge quite easy to
flex but I'm still concerned.

Opinions are welcome.

Thanks, this is a great list.

How do you replace the screen on the palmtop? I cannot seem to get the case
apart. (what am I missing here?)
I broke my screen on my 200lx and would like to replace it with the screen
on my 100lx.


Best Regards.

I agree! I have tried several, but I find Borland Turbo C 2.0 and TASM =
2.0
to be the best solution for development on the palmtop. Together with =
NKIT
you can create great EXM programs. I had some functions in my HP Alarm
Clock program written in assembler, so that's why I used TASM. The
compilation is fast and since NKIT is written to be used with Turbo C-
this is the best solution.

Subject:      Final msg on formatting flash cards (.5,1,2,4K clusters)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi,

I just reviewed former discussions on the formatting subject, because I
had to reformat my 8MB smart-media cards (Olympus dig camera, 4KB
cluster) for use with the 200LX - and I wanted 512Byte clusters.

Now here's *the final info on formatting*  ;-)

I)
There is a DOS Partition Manager including formatting, sources, good
explanations and all you need as freeware from

 Mikhail Ranish
 ranish@intercom.com
 http://www.intercom.com/~ranish  or
 http://www.ml.brooklyn.cuny.edu/~mranish

Till now I didn't try the SW on my 200LX, because:

II)
The DOS format prgr which comes with W95 has an undocumented switch:

 FORMAT drive: /z:n          n=1,2,4,8,..
 where n is the number of sectors (512Byte) in a cluster.

(I got this from the German PC magazine 'PC-Welt' 10/97
 www.pcwelt.de or CIS: GO PCWELT)

If you agree that this is the final msg on formatting, please send me a
msg, otherwise please don't!   ;-)

Hermann

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I want the author to get with me and see if we can't find the incompatability,
but I wanted to immediately send a message to the list notifying everyone that
upon exiting the phonebook, CLKLX locks up the machine.

Luckily, no data loss.  As soon as CLKLX is taken out of the autoexec.bat,
Phone quits just fine.  It is likely to be a incompatability with another TSR
I have running, but it happens just the same.

TSRs:

Battlog, Doskey, MaxDOS, Batset, MoreEXM, EXKey, Buddy, DOSShell, DOSSwap,
Cic200, SPD31, ZANSI, KBUF128.  (Whew, there's a lot of 'em!)

As a test, I'm going to reboot clean and see if it still happens.  Without
startup files, CLKLX, then 200, Phone doesn't lock up.  Under DOSShell, then
CLKLX, then 200, no lockup..  I'll investigate further later..

How I do it:

@echo off
rem the following pkzip cmds to backup requires about 256k to work
rem
rem (flush out the tmp directory before backing up)
rem (exclude the tremm.swp swap file)
rem
del a:\_bak\cdrive.zip
deltree /y c:\tmp
md c:\tmp
pkzip -rp -whs -Jhrs -xtremm.swp a:\_bak\cdrive c:\*.*

To restore:

rem run cmd from drive c
rem first restore all files
a:\utl\pkunzip -d -Jhrs -o a:\_bak\cdrive.zip *.*

rem now bebuild emm swap area. 64 16k blocks=1mb
a:\utl\instemm 64


Notes: the backup script deletes the previous backup (a:\_bak\cdrive.zip),
then deletes the temporary files on C before doing pkzip. The pkzip cmd
skips the EMM swap file (tremm.swp).

The restore script is run from the empty C drive and finishes by rebuilding
the EMM swap file.

You can run pkzip/pkunzip to get the exact meanings of the options used, I
think I just copied them from someone else, but I've proven to myself that
the combo works.

Chris,

The Connectivity Pack is really a series of small DOS programs that are
called up by the main CPack application program.  It sounds like one of
those program files is corrupt.  The Filer program is called cfiler.exe.
(The SUPER site has a text file that shows you how to use cfiler as a stand
alone program that fits on a floppy to move from computer to computer.)  If
it is corrupted or one of its support files like filer.env is corrupt the
program will try to start and fail and reload the main CPack application
program again.  I would suggest you reinstall the whole CPack program and
see if that fixes your problem.

    the Turbo C compiler have over basic, other than

My vote is for Turbo C 2.0. It's a nice compiler, lots
of functionality, very stable, has a useful command-line
compiler (I live in the UNIX world - can't stand those
IDEs) and - the best part - Microsoft doesn't get a cent!

Hi all,

For any of you that downloaded my ConvertLX utility from S.U.P.E.R.,
there's a new version out there that fixes a problem with certain
combinations of numbers causing weird results. Sorry about that.

(Boy, I feel like Microsoft - send the software out and let the users
beta-test it! 8-) )

For those of you who sent me suggestions for improvements, I'm working
on a new version that will incorporate most of them. Thanx for the mail,
and keep the ideas coming!

I have some fairly detailed instructions in the "Hardware Hacking" section
of my web site, http://www.hplx.net

If you need more detail, I can probably provide it.

Subject:      Newton SRAM Card

I have a 1MB Newton SRAM card available if anyone on the list needs it. It's
left over from my Newton MP100 days of long ago. Believe it or not, there
was a time when I thought the Newtons were the best thing since sliced bread
<grin>. Actually, the MP120 was a nice machine, especially since it had two
PC card slots. I don't really think the card is worth much, but if anyone
wants it drop me a line. It may be useful for backing up a 1MB LX.

I use the command line version (Turbo C++ v1.01) and make files.

Unfortunately, the IDE contains the debugger (and I also found the IDE
awkward, even on a desktop: so I don't use it.)

I understand that there is stand-alone debugger available; anyone know
anything about this?

I called them about askSam 5.1 and asked why the price is so high -
was told they still support the software and the price is set to
cover the people who provide the phone support.  I asked how long
they intend to keep supporting the DOS version and he didn't know,
but said the price would drop if support was discontinued.  There is
a Demo -limited to small databases I think I got from their web page.

As for me I'll stick with InfoSelect - for the type of things I need
to keep track of it works great.  I think you can still order it from
Micro Logic  -no tech support -about $50 if they still have it.

I have 5.1 on my LX but none of the Fortran 90 compilers I know of
would fit. Fortran 90 is sufficiently different that it would be time
consuming to rewrite the code to compile. I would then be faced with
the fact that functions to duplicate all the Windoze calls (my Fortran
90 prog is a real Windoze app with dialogs, menus and multiple
document windows) would have to be created. Better to convert to C
and use the PAL library.

I also run Cpack on an NT machine but have not encountered the problem
you are experiencing. Are you sure some of the CPACK files didn't get
corrupted or deleted in some fashion?

Installed any new software lately?

Well, I can't speak to C, as I'm not a C programmer - but I use Power
Basic on my 200LX all the time. (Power Basic is the followup to Borland's
Turbo Basic - www.powerbasic.com). I prefer version 2.x to the current
3.x, as it's a smaller package, but 2.x works flawlessly. PowerBasic now
has an "intro" basic as $25.00 shareware. I suspect this is quite similar
to Turbo Basic i.e. Power Basic version 1, and should be a good starter
package.

Jeff:

I started out using the book that comes with the Power C compiler - it
is an excellent tutorial and reference book in one binding.  Also, I would
*highly* recomment you get a copy of "The C Programming Language", 2nd
Edition, by Kernigan and Ritchie.  Armed with these, just start writing
code, and code, and more code.  Practice.

I'll send you two bucks for it. I have a friend with a 100LX and
no serial connection (he's not very technical) using a TruFFS
flash card. If he blows his C: drive, he won't have any way
to get the True FFS driver on C:.  I could send him that card
with the driver and then get him back on the air over the phone.

Think of it as cartographic with limited topographic features. If the Grand
Canyon is between me and the target I want to know. If there's a dry creek
bed, I don't really care. Interstates I care about.

Think of it this way. You're in the middle of the forest with a broken arm,
plus you were blindfolded when dropped off. What you want to know is
precisely where you are, where the nearest town or major road is, and what
major obstacles may lie between. What road the doctor's office is on isn't
relevent because when you get to civilization you can ask.

I, along with many of you have used the term 'best thing since sliced bread'
in our conversations throughout life. However, does anybody know:

1) where this expression came from and
2) what was the greatest thing before sliced bread.

Just a curious question, I don't know, and my grandfather worked for
Colonial Bread (Dothan, AL) most of his life.

Hate to break up this great C debate (Turbo C++ 1.0 gets my vote, but then
I've had it since release). I have a question concerning assembly.

Which is better, TASM or MASM? I have the latest version of MASM, but is
TASM that much (if any) better?

I agree! I have tried several, but I find Borland Turbo C 2.0 and TASM 2.0
to be the best solution for development on the palmtop. Together with NKIT
you can create great EXM programs. I had some functions in my HP Alarm
Clock program written in assembler, so that's why I used TASM. The
compilation is fast and since NKIT is written to be used with Turbo C-
this is the best solution.

Somebody willing to inform me how to get ride off the SMTP-headers in
messages ? Something to modify in POST.CFG ? I must admit that I have
fiddle around a little bit but not change something important. But
afterall ......

I'm not sure whether it's accurate (I haven't yet tried it myself), but
here goes:

  Running Windows 3.0 on the Palmtop

  For any-one who wants to try it here is a minimal version of Windows 3.0
  posted to The HP Palmtop Mailing List by Stefan Peichl

  WIN      COM      3824 05-09-90  12:00p

  SYSTEM   INI       114 10-28-95   2:15p
         17 file(s)     570516 bytes

  The WIN.COM file is the renamed original WIN.CNF file.

  Your SYSTEM.INI should have only the following 5 lines:

  Ýboot¨
  display.drv  = cga.drv
  fonts.fon    = cgasys.fon
  oemfonts.fon = cgaoem.fon
  network.drv  =

  Note: You cannot switch your palmtop off while in windows, as windows
  uses it's own keyboard driver.

Let me know how it works for you.

Good luck,
B.

Actually, I owe you an apology for steering you wrong. After thinking about
it a bit more, I realized that the FILER.INI trick I described won't help
you out because it only passes a single filename as an argument to the
program; XINE needs two filenames, for <infile> and <outfile>.

For those who do not know of this very useful FILER.INI trick, here is the
scoop from Section 15 of the HP200LX FAQ at <http://www.hplx.net/faq.html>:

  Q. How can I get the filer to run a program based on a file's type?

  Create the file c:\_dat\filer.ini, containing file extensions and
  commands to run, as shown in this example:

            ÝLauncher¨
            ICN=D:\BIN\ICN200.EXE %
            ZIP=A:\BIN\PKUNZIP.EXE %

  When you select a file and press ENTER, if the selected file has the
  extention ".ICN" the icon editor on drive D: is started and the file name
  (the `%' is replaced by the name of the selected file) is given as
  argument. If the selected file has the extention ".ZIP" it is
  automatically unzipped (assuming PKUNZIP lives on a:\bin).

(Note that this function only works on the 200LX Filer; the 100LX has no
such feature.) Any program that can be run from the DOS command prompt
using a single filename as an argument can also be launched from Filer in
this manner. Unfortunately, XINE requires two filenames, so it doesn't fall
into this category.

What would be handy is a DOS utility for batch files that pauses for
filenames and other arguments, then passes them onto the program. For
example, if such a utility was named GETARG.COM, you could then write a
batch file (named RUNXINE.BAT or something) like this:

GETARG=1 "Which input file?"
GETARG=2 "Which output file?"
D:\BIN\XINE.COM arg1 arg2

Then, to run XINE from Filer, you can simply "point and shoot" RUNXINE.BAT
in the Filer, and would be prompted for your <infile> and <outfile>.

So. Who has such a utility as my mythical GETARG.COM?

B.

Just a curiosity about the licensing thing.
Since in my original Turbo C++ 1.0 packaging they gave me 2 sets of disks
(3.5 and 5.25), doesn't that technically give me two copies of software?
I know this is a silly thing, but something had to get my brain cells moving
this morning.

Personally, I like TASM better... it comes with some nifty utilities, and
is smaller, and can use its own, enhanced syntax, or MASM compatibility
mode.

Well, I'm no expert, but I thought it was because before the bread
companies started pre-slicing the bread, it came in a big loaf, and then
you had to slice it up yourself.  Once they started slicing it before they
packaged and sold it, well-- you could just grab a couple slices and make
yourself a sandwich, instead of having to go find a sharp knife, slice off
a ragged hunk, and probably cut yourself in the process.

As for the greatest thing before sliced bread... Hmm... that's probably
still being debated by philosophers all over the world.

I don't know but I been told that eskimo Pita bread is mighty cold.
The greatest thing before sliced bread wuz BREAD itself.

The expression is less than a hundred years old as slicing machings
have only been around that long.  They came into being just before PCs.

I don't know about 'just before pc's'...  i was under the impression that
sliced bread as a product available at the grocery store has been around
since the fifties.

Actually - the advent of sliced bread was one of the worst things that
happen to human-kind.

There used to be a very special ritual among this tribe of apes - and that
was "breaking bread' - the treaing of bread amongst close friends and
family.

This is culturally remembered as the shabat bread and even the "last
supper"

"best thing since sliced bread?" - in my book it has all been downhill
since pre-made, pre-packaged "sliced bread"

besides - they will not fit in my PCMCIA slot....

ÝAlt¨ + ÝH¨ should do it. Also it can be done from ÝView¨ All Headers
un-check it.

Press Alt-view - All headers.

It doesnt get rid of them but causes them not to display.

I downloaded strip poker from the comports site and it works well. I've
gotten Pam naked a few times already. Does anybody know where I can get
other girls? If I remember correctly, there were several girls (and some
guys, I think.).

>I may give C a try if I can do all the programming on the HP200LX.

The same old discussion again. Though being an avid C and assembler
programmer, it is my view that C is far too difficult unless you learn
it for real and use it a lot. Unless you REALLY understand pointers -
and few do - you are NOT a C programmer.

I would still recommend Turbo Pascal. The size is right for the HP, it
is faster to program in, it compiles fast, the .EXE file is for small
programs smaller that the C equivalent as the runtime system is simpler,
you can write just as low-level in Turbo Pascal as in C should you want
to etc. Look back to my old message which as far as I remember was more
detailed and had the codesize for TP version 5.

Why is there a picture of either a HP 320 or 360 on the HP mailing list home

It uses a normal parallel port, not even bidirectional like newer
laser printers. As far as output control it is an old version of HP's
PCL (printer control language) which is just series of unprintable
characters similar to dot matrix printers. You could probably find a
pcl command reference on HP's web site. I have done simple page
formatting manually on the HPII, it is just a case of defining the
needed strings and printing them before the appropriate text.

I bought one of these after seeing the positive
comments by some members of the list. BUT so far
W95 cannot recognize my flashcard.

Windows did recognize the device and installed
the PCIC or compatible PCMCIA controller. And
when I insert my flahshcard W95 beeps and in the
PCMCIA control panel it tells me that the card
is in one of the two sockets. I can also Stop it
and remove it.

However I cannot see any sign of the card in
Windows Explorer, and in the System Control Panel
under Device Manager I have a large yellow
question mark in front of Other Devices, PCMCIA
Card Services.

Got my fingers crossed that somebody understands
what the problem is...

No.  However It is a common belief, severalsoftware licences make s
special point about this NOT be two licences. Simply duel media.

It's almost certainly a linear flash card. You can probably access it =

the True Flash TFFS drivers.  Contact me by email if you need a copy.

I haven't actually seen, and as such have not read any of the
documentation about compact flash / 3.5" floppy disk adapters.  Have any
of you used or read about them?  I don't really need one for my palmtop
(it might be nice, however) I am more interested in the method used by
the device for communicating with the 3.5" drive assembly.  My direct
question is, can one of these cards simulate other than the MS-DOS disk
format?  Specifically, can I write to a compact flash in such a fashion
as to have the combined flash / disk adapter "look" like a disk for
another platform other than MS-DOS, like Mac, or Amiga?

No, I'm referring to http://www.palmtop.net/hplist.html in the upper left
corner. It's definately not a 200lx (no separate numeric keypad) and the
screen width knocks the 300lx off. It's identical to a 360lx, but could be a
320lx as well.

Maybe W95 can install the necessary IDE driver, *if there is a free
interrupt* (IRQ)

You may also configure it manually (Sytem/...) to use IRQ 3 or 4, but
then you can't use the corresponding COM port in parallel.

I'll be back, if this doesn't help or isn't explained good enough. :-)

Subject:      "The Scientific and Technical Library CDROM"

Folks:

I came across a "The Scientific and Technical Library
Shareware/Freeware CDROM" (Walnut Creek, August 1994) a while ago.  It
contains quite a concentrated collection of old engineering/
science/math related DOS programs that are usually more scattered
across various ftp sites.  I think some of them would be of interest
to fellow 200LX users.  (it also contains a version of pspice, not
sure if this is the one that people have been talking about though).

I haven't been able to test-run everything on the 200LX,
but here are a few I know works:

        espresso - boolean minimization
        smc - very small C compiler (around 100K).
              Includes the source code. Good for quick and
        rcs - revision control

There are a bunch of other stuff (ham radio, math, medical, biology
engineering, electronics, spell checkers).

I have put the cdrom at

        http://koaykak.stanford.edu

so that you folks can take a look if anything there
interests you. (This will not be permenant.)

If you find something interesting that works on the 200LX, please do
upload them to S.U.P.E.R , eddie or some other regular palmtop sites
with appropriate descriptions.

I hope some of you will find this useful.

whay.

John,

Bad News First: The divers built-in to your 200LX are meant only for the
newer ATA-type Flash cards, and will not work with the older Intel-type
Flash cards.

Not So Bad News: If you can find a copy of a driver called MS-FLASH.SYS (or
another called TFFS.SYS), and load either of these from your CONFIG.SYS
with the line:

     DEVICE=MS-FLASH.SYS  (or DEVICE=TFFS.SYS)

...then you should be able to use the card with the only penalties being a
bit of RAM overhead and a somewhat slow response time.

Or you can just by a new 4 Mb ATA card. I believe Marcan
(http://www.marcan-dist.com/) will mail you one for $65 bucks or, better
still, a 20 MB for $109.

Good luck.
B.

On most modems, M0 (that's a zero) will turn off the speaker.
To lower the volume, L0 shoudl work.

Mitch Hamm set that up a while ago, and an equally astute LX user noted that
same fact back then. I forget Mitch's exact reply, and maybe he'll chime in
on this one, but the answer didn't seem to bother anyone and so he left it.

That is supposedly a picture of a 320LX prototype that I put up a l-o-n-g time
ago when we all thought "the next one" was going to be something we would all
want. Since that mailing list page is really just an archive now with the list
running over at UCONN, I just kept it for nostalgia. Same deal with the HP
Mailing List members page.

If anyone has a REALLY good picture of a 200LX that doesn't take too long to
load (< 20K), I would be happy to replace the existing odious one. :)

Hmmm, not quite.  When you start CPACK, you are in a partial APP MGR
on your desktop.  I can do this, and all my icons are there.  All the
other apps seem to work correctly (memo, xlate, dbase, etc.).  Except
for FILER.  It "starts", the screen clears momentarily, then poof, I'm
back in the app mgr.  No error messages, nothing.  I tried using the
standalone FILER technique described in the package on SUPER, and I
effectively got the same thing - FILER exited immediately without any
error code.  Mystery...

I don't have much hope for NT-to-200lx COM packages.  TFWIN200 works, and
looks simlar to Filer - you might try that, it's free.  HyperTerminal also
works, but is not for everyone, though I like it.

The trouble with such things is that what works on DOS probably won't work
on NT, though it might work on '95.  To ensure successful communication to
the palmtop on NT, you have to use the Windows APIs, and I'm sure CPACK
doesn't do that.

I would prefer lxtools for NT, which I would volunteer to adapt form the DOS
version, but apparently there has been little interest in that.

It's something in-between of C and Assembly, generates

Full of samples, includes compiler sources. The graphics

I have to agree here.

Pascal also makes a *lot* more sense than C; more internally consistent,
the implementation details are properly hidden, and it does sensible
things to save you grief - like array bounds checking!

But for maximum-performance, C and then assembler are the way to go.

Guy walks into the patent office.

He demonstrates the blades of his new invention on a loaf to the patent
examiner, to form neat, regular slices.

The examiner is very impressed. Excited, he exclaims, "That's the best

this work well, how does it convert the color?

And what and where is the best ICON

Is anyone using the 123 Gui program? I see
it requires More EXM.  I am puzzled by the comment

I' m sure I've more than 8 on mine?

   where do I write my username and the password?

b) if I use a username different than "anonymous", how do
   I login etc.?

  And one question about the POST/LX: when I download a
ZIP-file with WWW/LX, transfer speed is about 1300-1400
cps. The same thing done with POST/LX (even if it isn't an
archive, but plain text) shows the speed of no more than
900cps.( I have a 14400 modem.) Is it normal for POST/LX
to be that much slower than HV, concerning the fact they
use the same communication program?

Yes, yes, yes!
For the occasional programmer there is really only two choices:
Basic
Turbo Pascal.
Of the two Turbo Pascal has the edge being small and powerfull and forces
you from making the most intricate mistakes. Debugging C is no fun. Period.
My basic code inevitably ends up being more complex than my Pascal somehow.
Just my 2 cents worth!

No. They probably specifically exclude this case. But generally, when you buy one box, you get one license. Unless you explicitly buy multiple licenses.

Most of the software I use specifies one cpu at a time and allows one or t backup copies. So I'm comfortable loading it at home and at work.

Hi all,
   Is there a way to use these with a 100LX? Marcan says they will not work as is.

{Or you can just by a new 4 Mb ATA card. I believe Marcan
{(http://www.marcan-dist.com/) will mail you one for $65 bucks or, better

Or... does anyone know of a source of 10 - 20 M flash cards that work with a 100LX and  Stacker.

Right know I have a 5 Mbyte HP card with Stacker - things are getting tight as you might imagine.

Thanks,  Tony

I have both and would any time pick TASM.

TASM is better thought out, takes up less space, accepts MASM commands
etc. Clearly better. However, I am not happy about Borlands service any
more (they used to be the most customer friendly company on earth);
Microsoft is - believe it or not - far more helpful.

However, if you make .COM files, the shareware assembler A86 is number
one. It is very small, very fast and very easy to use. Don't leave home
without it! You can get it at http://eji.com/index.htm. I have written
tons of programs in this. However, if you want to interface to C/C++, I
would recommend TASM.

Technically that means that you got two disk sets.
How many serial numbers did they give you?

This may or may not be useful, but ...
I had a devil of a time getting serial devices, including the CPACK, to work
under NT.  Turns out that I had installed a serial label printer (CoStar
Labelwriter), and that printer driver, even when not in use and not the
default, completely hogged the serial port so that no DOS programs,
including CPACK and Pocket Quicken Connect, could access it.  After removing
the printer driver, all is well.

   >commands?  I always thought that if you wanted pathnames stored you
   >needed the big P?

Good question. But I'm definitely getting stored pathnames using -p.
According to pkzip, both options store the pathnames, but -P additionally
stores the pathname specified in the command, so for example

pkzip -rp test.zip \app\*.* stores everything under (but not including)
\app.

By contrast,
pkzip -rP test.zip \app\*.* stores as before, but also the \app portion
of the pathname. For my backups, -p works fine the way I use it.

   >Also, do you delete and restore the TMP directory every time you
   >backup?

I use the TMP directory on my C drive for dumping test files, playing with
downloaded programs, etc. I just wanted an area that I knew I could erase
nightly, like taking out the trash at night. The reason I delete the
directory using DELTREE is that some funky programs would occasionally
create bogus filenames or with special attributes that ATTRIB and normal
DELETE had problems with. Also, sometimes the programs created additional
subdirectories under TMP. The DELTREE/MKDIR combo is only two lines and
works every time, plus Filer's UNDELETE has a harder time recovering the
deleted directory/files, which makes the erasures more certain for things
like password files.

   >Finally, why not use the -u switch to updte the zip file every
   >night?

I wanted the nightly backup to be a mirror-image of the C drive (sans
EMM file). Asking pkzip to update an archive seemed to be asking it
to do more than I wanted. What if I had deleted files (intentionally)
on the C drive...they'd still be on an updated archive wouldn't they
and would show up on the next restore (as well as taking up space on
the archive).

One of these days I'll research it some more. Took a lot of fussing
to get it working in the first place and naturally I forgot to take
notes <g>.

This is true. However, maybe it's my bad luck, but my c: drive usually
craps out at the worst time and I'm usually not in the mood nor position
to dig up spare executables.

My aim was to make the restore as automatic as possible to get going again
in the shortest time. Backing up the executables was a necessary evil in
order to get there. YMMV.

After not being to the Grand Canyon in over 20 years, when I next
visited, I parked in the lot away from the rim.  I walked thru the
pine forests as if I did not know the Grand Canyon were not there,
approaching like some innocent traveling north to Utah to get a feeling
of what it was like to come to this 'minor' obstacle.  It is pretty flat
and innocent appearing and then you emerge and stare into this yawning
abyss.  Truly, a fascinating way to approach the Canyon.

It would have been very generous of those who blindfolded you and broke
your arm to leave you your HP and gps system! (gd&r)

Acad on an HP is only practical if you have enough memory to store it.
I have 6 megs, although it might fit on HPs with less.  I tried PALDRAW
and didn't see any value to it when there are DOS CAD programs that do
more better.

Precisely correct Tim. Here is a brief description:

Lx-Sort is a fully customizable address list sort utility for Post/LX (C)
Version 2.0 (the email client of the WWW/LX Plus suite). It is designed to
be run from the 'Externals' menu of Post/LX (Ctrl-X) and provides the
familiar look and feel of the HP Palmtop's built-in applications. WWW/LX
Plus 2.0 uses an ASCII address list file format and although lists may be
viewed and created within the program there is no means of easily sorting
the contents of address list files. LxSort provides this utility and allows
the quick and easy sorting and backing up of your address list/s to any
drive or directory and will save your settings across sessions. LxSort is
designed to integrate seamlessly into Post/LX 2.0 and shares some of its
shortcut keys in addition to providing passive and active methods of
operation...

My problem is slightly different from yours.
When I run CPACK, It use to look like the LX.
That is with all icons for one to be selected.
Now just the filer appears without the first

Anyone know what the problem is?

I have one about HV too:

If you are viewing files in memory, can you get it to execute cgi
scripts etc? I guess it must +send+ the requests correctly when
viewing a site; but I suppose asking it to launch the program on
the hp200lx itself would amount to making the lx a web-server...

Subject:      DOS Problems
Comments: cc: jdybdahl@compuserve.com

I've just recently noticed that my beloved 200lx has aspirations of
becoming a CE machine.  I'm having difficulty getting certain DOS apps
running.

I first noticed the problem when I tried to find a hexdump utility to
work on the machine.  I tried six different utilities whose specs
indicated the 200lx could run them; half of those are run by other list
members on their palmtops.  Yesterday, I tried TV.COM (tiny Ýtext¨
viewer) and TED.COM (tiny editor).  I also tried Neil's new prc-to-text
converter.  The response I get from my machine when I try running any of
these is one of the following:

        1)  The prompt reappears almost as soon as I've hit ENTER as if
no command was processed,
        2)  there is a pause, and then a flashing cursor appears and
flashes until I do a reboot,
        3)  the pause and flashing cursor appears but the keyboard locks
up and requires pulling the AAs,
        4)  random characters fill the screen (happened with TED) and the
AAs need pulled to reboot.

My machine is a stock 2M, normal-speed 200lx.  I finally broke down and
did a complete reset with all batteries out so it is now just as it would
appear off-the-shelf (exception - I've reloaded my appts).  I have a 10M,
uncompressed CF card from which I run WP51, TurboCv1, HV, Personal
Ancestral File (PAF), and PGP262 without problems.  It seems the larger
DOS apps work but the little <10K utilities won't.

Anyone have any ideas?

I don't agree. I have no idea about those pointers- on the other hand I =

not call myself programmer. But the fact is that I don't think C is that

Kurt:

Thanks for the tip.  I took your advice and looked to see if anything new
had been added lately.  Nothing that has anything to do with the serial
port as far as I can tell.  In fact, I can access the serial port from a
DOS program, PCPLUS.  I'm thinking that that would rule out the situation
you suggested, but maybe not.

The only program I added recently to my desktop was a WATCOM C/C++
compiler, DOS version only.  Hard to imagine this would hose up a serial
port, but who knows...

-Chris Lott

p.s.  Lest anyone think I've given up my PowerC, I had to use the WATCOM
product on one project because that what our customer has specified.

My experience only... (using bin2hex) is that a conversion of a binary
file of any size takes _time_ even on my x2 200LX.  Please ignore this
observation if you have already allowed for the time factor.

even Borland allows BASIC code that approaches

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Brenda/Jeff:

AT my site, www.comports.com/hplx/files.html, you can get win 2.03.  In the
zip is a readme that gives the minimum.

Anything that can run in windows on the 200LX has to run in real mode.  Win
2.03 runs all apps that are real-mode compat.  As far as that goes, win 3.0
does not run any additional real-mode apps than what win 2.03 can.  EXCEPT
that win 3.0 comes with program manager, file manager and a few more
applets.  These MAY run under 2.03 anyway, but I don't know, since I
haven't tried.

But win 2.03 (like 3.0) can run Word 1.1, excel 2.0, Draw, and a few other
apps.  Get many of these at my site.

For your convenience, here is the readme from win 2.03:

-----
Just unzip all into one folder.  Make sure you have executed SETVERM.EXE
(included) before setup and runtime.  Run SETUP.EXE from these zips and
setup for CGA.

The minimal install is:

WINOLDAP.MOD
WIN200.OVL
WIN200.BIN
WIN.COM
WIN.INI
MSDOS.EXE

and some fonts, if you want them to show up in your apps.
-----
in addition, add a printer if you want to see print previews.

I have used MASM versions from 1.05 (?) through 5.1,
and recently downloaded 6.1 from the IBM developer
site.  I have access to TASM ver 2.0 as well.  My
favorite is MASM 3.0.  The X86 assembly newsgroup
repeatedly "discusses" this issue, so you can search
www.DejaNews.com and come to no particular conclusion.
TASM people say MASM is buggy, MASM people say TASM is
buggy.  They (of course) rarely cite examples.  The
only recent example I have seen was of a TASM bug.

I dislike Borland primarily for their documentation,
environment, and bad experience with their other products.
I like MASM ver 3.0 because it's what I have used most
often, and it is small enough to load anywhere I want it.

TASM also has an "ideal" mode which can either be seen
as an extension cleaning up assembly language, or as a
proprietary format.  The newer MASM versions allow for
all sorts of weird structures to be more compatible with
C programming (I think).

Bottom line, assembly is idiosyncratic.  Get familar
with what you have and don't worry about the other
products (unless there is something you know is missing
in your's).  And then you too can arbitrarily join the
flame wars as an expert.

I use the program, and it is handy, though I've used 1-2-3
since the late 80s.

You may have more than 8, but do they all work?  I use smmx
with moreexm, and have ended end up putting all my *.exm
programs, except smmx, in smmx.  It works very well.  With
smmx, you can keep your icons anywhere you choose.  Also take a
look at exkey (you can remap the *.exm hot-keys with it).

Let me know if you would like help setting these up.

Probably because they trying to tell yu it won't.
Only certain version do.  ACE is ver 3.0 and  it
do.  Some Ver 4.0 do but why use V4.0 if V3.0
works?  The LX HW is still the same.  Why use
up more memory to do the same job.  Besides
ACE was made specifically to work for the LX.

Jorgen, I have to agree with you about pointers. The only reason I chose C
was because I wanted to use PAL to get the "built-in application" look. PAL
makes it easy for me (a C super novice) to write nice programs which use
the HP200LX GUI.  It's sort of like using LXBatch to write batch file
programs, which I like too.  PAL allowed me to write the Palmtop Periodic
Table program fairly easily. If I had to learn how to implement the HP200LX
GUI with pure C (or another language) by myself I would have never had
enough time to do it. I'm just playing around with this stuff anyway
because I enjoy it.

Hope everything is well your way,

Owen

This would be Ibrowse. It works very well for this. You select from a
dialog window, which colors you want to be black and which colors you want
to be white. Then see how it looks. If you don't like it you play with the
selections until it looks good.

I don't know of any other icon creator for the HP200LX. The built-in one is
primative but the 2 color icons are primative too. :)

Subject:      64 Meg Palmtop and Software Carousel bug + workaround
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain

IMPORTANT: Attention all users with 64 Meg Palmtop who use Software
Carousel or Super Software Carousel

We have just discovered a critical bug involving Software Carousel and
64 Meg palmtops. All other palmtops and the large flash cards that we
have tested work fine.

If you have not yet installed Software Carousel or Super Software
Carousel, just follow the simple workaround instruction below.

If you already have Software or Super Software Carousel installed, check
for corruption by running CHKDSK from DOS. If corruption is reported,
back up your files. Run RDT2T.EXE found on your 2-megabyte drive to
reformat the 64 Meg "T2T" drive.

Workaround: In FILER go to the SC directory (SC7 with Super Software
Carousel).  Use the MENU File Rename command, and rename OPTIMIZE.EXE
to, for example, OPT.EXE.  Then proceed as normal.

Explanation: Normally, when Software Carousel initializes, to speed
operations it calls a program called OPTIMIZE. OPTIMIZE defragments the
disk before it creates a swap file. On the 64 Meg RAM disk, this does
not seem to be necessary.

When OPTIMIZE runs in conjunction with Software Carousel on a 64 Meg
Palmtop, data corruption occurs. Note that we have tested OPTIMIZE
running in stand-alone mode, and no corruption occurs.

We purchased the rights to sell Software Carousel, "as is."  We will
consult the programmers. If they produce a fix, we will make it
available to our customers.

Subject:      Re: DOS Problems

I was thinking along the same lines so I completely reset my 200.  The
absolute minimum is now there.  I even commented out the LapLink Server.
The results have been the same.

The virus issue also occurred to me so I used the latest version of
McAfee on my desktop to do a scan.  Nothing turned up.  I'm also getting
my software from what I'd call pretty safe sources (though one never
knows).

Another list member mentioned that I might not be giving it enough time.
That makes sense but I've let the thing work on the problems for up to 30
minutes with no effect.  It surely doesn't take 30 minutes to load a 3K
editor (TED) or do a hex dump on a 1K program.  This also is inconsistent
with my PGP experiences.  I've used the palmtop to generate a 1024 bit
key once (BIG job) and it took close to an hour; it is inconcievable that
a program with the memory demands of PGP would only be a little slower
than a tiny 3K program.

It really has me stumped and irritated.

Larry Zimmerman

PS - I wasn't "jumping over your head" in taking my problems to the list
Jorgen but it is obvious that your program isn't the problem (as you've
said to me privately).

I was going to ask if you are trying to run these apps from a DOS session
under the program manager, or have you closed the program manager?  But I
just checked and it work fine even in the small DOS box you get from the =
C:
icon in program manager.

Other than some driver in your config.sys or autoexec.bat having gone
screwy, I can't think of anything.

What are the chances you have set up one of the odd ball video modes or

Agreed. I've been using an "Off the shelf" copy of Stacker 4 on my Ace
10MB flashcard for several years. I found the compression far superior
to the Ace supplied Stacker 3.0. Perhaps far more importantly, I find
that the actual drive structure is far more robust, and that disk
errors are repaired far easier with 4, than with 3.

I thought this debate was settled in the marketplace a dozen or more =
years ago.  In business,  programmers use C.  No flames please.  Let's =
get back to our LX's.

I have to agree here.

Pascal also makes a *lot* more sense than C; more internally consistent,
the implementation details are properly hidden, and it does sensible
things to save you grief - like array bounds checking!

But for maximum-performance, C and then assembler are the way to go.

This one is has the Hitachi SH-3 44 MHz processor.

Thanks in advance,

The example was to do with a for loop and a switch
statement partially overlapping. Kindof like (  { ) }.
Which you shouldn't really be able to do, but you
can, it compiles and it works.
The author says:
        "I think this code makes a very strong
        argument in the for/against C debate;
        but I'm not sure for which side."

Sure just call Thaddeus and ask for a 32 or 64 megabyte 200LX. That way
you won't have to worry about ugrading your ROM.

I also have given this issue some thought.  My 32M 200LX has about
10M of files on it and is backed up on my desktop's 60M hard drive.
The desktop has only about 20M open so I also do not back up most
of the LX program stuff.  Of course most of the DOS software on my
palmtop was essentially just transferred from my desktop to begin
with--it wouldn't take much effort to do so again.

Aren't you _just_ _so_ big and bad- did your mommy write that for you?
Face it, WinCE is just plain junk, just junk. Nobody would be buying
it except for the fact Microsoft probably had to pay companies to
take it. Face it you own junk and it always will be junk.
I'm not going to argue with you, it would be like me comparing

I'm sure he'll apprieciate that. He probably just came from there.
Shoot by now I'd have burned my own ROM with something, anything

That was my first thought, too. However when redirecting the output from
my hexdump program to a file, it ends up as ONE byte though my program
ALWAYS sends at least TWO bytes (a carriage return and a linefeed).
We have also checked that my DUMP program was the only one on the
machine.

The only sensible explanation I can give is that aliens or demons have
stolen the soul of the program.

Actually, Pascal has the *logical* way of terminating statements:

Pascal:  if xxx then this else that;
C:       if xxx then this; else that;

>the implementation details are properly hidden

I would agree that it is easier to get proper information hiding and
data abstration in Turbo Pascal as TP is object-oriented.
C is just as good as that but it is far more difficult.

The main problem in C is the badly thought out operator precedence and
its highly dangerous macro language. Its weak typing is both a curse and
a blessing, allowing you to uplift a string to the power of three if you
were mad enough to do so.

Yes, talented people can take a piece of source and make changes /
implement it without knowing much about pointers. But you are mostly
limited to that. It was with good reason we used to teach Pascal (or
Modula-2) to computer science students before we taught them C. It
made better programmers than those getting a degree today.

I think I know what I am talking about. I learned programming HP
programmable calculators (70ies - ah, those were the days), Basic,
PolyPascal Ýwhich was sold to Borland and became Turbo Pascal¨ and C
(early to mid-80ies) by myself but later took a degree in computer
science for the fun of it. I have never regretted the time spent on
that.

Then again, not having any formal education in computer science, did not
seem to hurt Steve Wosniak or Bill Gates in their efforts.

Now we're getting to some answers that make sense!  This is what I've

Does Thadeus or Shier or Torbik offer any palmtop exorcism services?  The
local clergy have all moved to solving Windows demons (more work/more
money).

On the video question though, the answer is, "no".  Nothing oddball at
all.

You're right about the hardware abstraction layer.  NT emulates the DOS BIOS
calls and hardware environment for older software.  It isn't as fast as DOS
but it works mostly.  As a test, I tried Procomm (DOS) in a DOS box and was
able to communicate with my 200LX over the same serial port.  In fact, that's
how I transferred some files that I needed to access.  So it doesn't appear
that NT has hosed or overtaken the serial port.

Good question.  I've been wondering this myself for two days.

See this?

Agreed. I've been using an "Off the shelf" copy of Stacker 4 on my Ace
10MB flashcard for several years. I found the compression far superior
to the Ace supplied Stacker 3.0. Perhaps far more importantly, I find
that the actual drive structure is far more robust, and that disk
errors are repaired far easier with 4, than with 3.

Watcha think?

<What would be handy is a DOS utility for batch files that
pauses for filenames and other arguments, then passes them
onto the program. For example, if such a utility was
named GETARG.COM, you could then write a batch file
(named RUNXINE.BAT or something) like this:
 GETARG=1 "Which input file?"
 GETARG=2 "Which output file?">

In fact, there is a DOS-utility by Andreas Garzotto which
lets you highlight the file in Filer, press ENTER, add the
output file only and - everything is done! It is
PNS200.EXE which you have to integrate into your FILER.INI
instead of XINE.COM. Example (assuming PNS200.EXE is in
directory C:\TOOLs)::

 *.DOC=c:\tools\pns200.exe %s
 *.TXT=c:\tools\pns200.exe %s
 ".EXE=c:\tools\pns200.exe %s
 etc.

After that you create a file PNS200.INI in C:_DAT in which
you reference all the file types you may which to compress
as follows:

 *.DOC=d:\bin\xine.com %s %s
 *.TXT=d:\bin\xine.com %s %s
 *.EXE=d:\bin\xine.com %s %s
 etc.

The first parameter %s here is already referenced by
highlighting and Enter-key in filer and you will be
prompted to add only the second parameter %s, i.e. the name
of the outfile. If you use a distinctive extension for
any compressed file (eg *.XIN) you can decompress the
*.XIN-files the same way: add them in FILER.INI and
PNS200.INI just as shown above. The second parameter (the
ONLY one you have to add after the prompt) is then the
name of the decompressed file.

All this may sound rather cryptic but just get PNS200.EXE
in its archived form PNS200.ZIP (freeware) from the
S.U.P.E.R. website (http://www.palmtop.net/super.html)-
and read its documentation. I use the combo FILER.INI and
PNS200.INI for practically all file operations (viewing,
unzipping, reading, executing) by highlighting the file in
Filer and pressing Enter. Its swift, easy and works
flawlessly.

I have no idea, unless it has to do with removable drives.  It

that it can't be done, I just didn't fool with it), had

You may have two copies of the software. But you do not *own* the

Can anyone tell me if the 200LX is affected.
Will it make our 200LXs worthless in 500 days?
I understand that the BIOS could not be altered.
Will the WinCE palmtops be similarly afflicted in 500 days?

The 200LX is not really affected by the year 2000.  It knows that there is
a February 29, 2000 and pretty much all of the built-in software is
compliant.  There have been some questions raised lately about cc:Mail,
though.

There are programs that run on the 200LX, however, which have trouble.
For example, Microsoft Word 5.0 has trouble with files dated after 1999.

To answer your question, of course you can.  It's rougly analogous to
email: you can get email in Eudora from anyone who sends something to you,
from any other client.  Different clients offer different features, but all
perform the same basic task.  However, there are different relay networks
you can connect to.  I'd go for EFNet, using irc.blackened.com,
irc.ais.net, or irc.emory.edu.

Having said all clients are the same, is anyone feeling up to porting
BitchX to DOS?  :)

Oh, and one more thing.  My personal wish is to have someone organize an
#hp200 channel.  #hp48 has been around for years, and has remained a
wonderful place to be.  If we could do the same thing for the 200, we might
just buy it an extra year or two.

And most important, can the built in modem be used for regular AMPS

Subject:      cryptic entries in HV.HOT revisited; POST/LX tricks
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

A while ago I asked about how to make grabbed URLs more explicit in
POSTLX and WWWLX. The adivce was that nothing short of manually editing
the resultant file will work. You have to remember to do it, and also
remeber what that URL was about.

I always strive to reduce the number of steps in any task and so was
able to slightly ease the discomfort by doing the following. I wrote a
small batch file HOT.bat consisting of only two lines:

pe HV.HOT
exit

As soon as I add an URL from a post message, I open a DOS box (Ctrl-X)
and run my HOT.BAT, edit the first line of the added URL (always at the
bottom of the list), and when I exit from PE, I'm back in POST.

Maybe a future version of POSTLX will one day allow chosing a name for an =
added
URL... (But this is admittedly not the biggest problem facing our world
at this time.)

Now, I'd be very interested in hearing how others have customized their
POST operation. There's always room for improvement...

Hi There,

I am using BGFAX and it works great with my PCMCIA modem. However, now I
am using a modified PalmPilot modem connected to COM1. So I would like to
use this solution when I am faxing, but the PalmPilot modem will not work
with BGFAX. I have heard that the PalmPilot modem can't fax AND I have
heard it can. I guess it can since they have fax programs for PalmPilot.

Any idea what I should do?

Thanks,

Jorgen

C can be very terse, and if you intent is to befuddle the
uninitiated, it is a good choice. Curly { braces } are
not more confusing than  begin ...  end, and most any
programmers editor will find the matching pairs for you.
And you have the largest choice in software developement
kit.

MS Visual C++ with MFC is a whole different story. Forty
character variable names (mixed upper and lower case) and
thousands of built in functions to "help" you. Of course,
once you "master" it, $100,000 a year doesn't seem an
unreasonable salary.

What a bunch of jerks.  The guy asked about an HP palmtop on an HP
palmtop list and all he gets is crap.  It is ==>not<== as if he asked on
a mac list.  I have two 200LX's (one double speed 8meg) and a 320LX.
And I know that I am not alone in that regard.  So it isn't "them
against us."  Frankly, I would like to have seen a reasonable answer to
his question -- and if I had the answer, would have provided it to him.

As the man said, can't we just be nice to each other?

David, and don't bother flaming or emailing -- my mind is made up.

Tried your recommendation without success. Would be greatfull for any =
additional hints.

I've found a little program that emulates a math coprocessor on SUPER =
Site as well. I will try to check that together with ACAD 10. This still =
needs a "mouse" as pointer ?! So I'm really in need of a "mouse".

In parallel I'm looking into PalDRAW - but I understand it can do only =
2-D sketching.

You have to reduce the programs memory requirements. Go to
Adjust/Room, then in Data Space you should reduce the memory to the
size of the biggest stack (for me that's 87; if you have anything
bigger try splitting into topics).  Then keep going to Window Buffer,
and reduce the memory to the size of the biggest window you'll be
using (for me that's 8000; anything bigger probably should be split).
All this works to make the program to require about 200k or so of
memory.

I hope this belated information helps someone.

P.S.  I don't like the new way of getting the list, the old way seems
better.

Sunny sunday afternoon problem.

Does anyone know enough about CPACK to know
why the first ICON page don't come up in DOS on

It always starts with the second FILER page.

Dear members of the HPLX-L list.

At least two members of your group have contacted me and indicated that a
statistical analysis software package that I wrote for use by students,
teachers and those involved in research will run on the HP Palmtop series.  I
believe it works on the 100/200 series but I'm not sure.

The programs are written to run under DOS or as a DOS window in windows.  I
know they run on 386 and 486 machines since they use less than 300 K of memory
to function.  They function very will on Pentium machines.

I don't know how many of you are interested by if you would like to see more
go to
http//members.aol.com/rcknodt/pubpage.htm
<A HREF="http://members.aol.com/rcknodt/pubpage.htm">MODSTAT</A>
where the programs are described.  The web page is out-dated since the
software now does over 220 tests and routines.  A one-time registration fee
costs you $22.00US ($17.00 if you are a student).  That is about a dime a
routine.

To those who want a free two-month trial I can send you the programs as an e-
mail attachment.  Simply e-mail me your name and complete postal mailing
address.

As an additional offer, if you register the software during the two month
trial period I'll also send you a collection of finance and math routines (a
total of 42 routines) free of charge.  They also should run very well since
they to are DOS programs.

Thanks for taking the time to read this message.  If I can be of any help,
please do not hesitate to contact me.

     Stephen,

     I found it easier to change out the motherboard of the 200lx into my
     100lx case. The Keyboard changes slightly, but the keyboard mask from
     the 200 fits fine. I have new keyboard mask(from Mack at X2Tech) that
     I was planning to install(need to figure out what glue to use), but to
     tell the truth, I haven't needed it. I also like the black case and
     green/blue keys instead of purple.

That's a bit unfair. This list was set up specifically to support
HP95/100/200 DOS based palmtop users. Maybe he was sent away a bit =
harshly,
but if he'd understood why the list exists he wouldn't have asked here in
the first place.

He wasn't just sent away harshly.  He was immaturely ridiculed by someone
with little tact or restraint, and apparently, brains.  I am not referring
to you, but the posts from the person who did most of the flaming that I
read were really inappropriate.

Hey guys;
Well, I guess every one has his say,
and maybe we wuz a bit harsh.  Then
again, this is not a just world.

What about the new kid in the
schoolyard or the new guy in the bar,
or O.J. getting away with murder?
OK, so maybe he didn't do it...
Its the way the mop flops.

Sometimes we gonna bite the dust for
saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.
The same question at another time may
not got have gotten him the same result.

Hi All

Would anyone be willing to share Palmpilot experiences?  My wife has seen
them out there and wants to look into getting one.

Lists? Sources?  Things to look for in the product? Versions? Prices?

I'll stick with my trusty 200LX but she wants to go windows if possible

Thanks

(a) who is "Brenda"? Do you mean me, "Brendan"? The very idea of cutting
    off my 'n' makes me quite uncomfortable...

(b) hurt whose feelings? If you mean the original poster, I didn't
    flame him or use sarcasm - or even reply to the thread until after
    he signalled he was leaving.

(c) if you mean Lynn, I really did think the quote was very funny.
    I just feel sorry for the original poster.


OTOH, I think the name of the list - HPLX - may be misleading. And we
don't really have a FAQ to tell otherwise. And that imfamous photo
on SUPER may also confuse hopeful WinCE owners. I even seem to
remember something about the hp320lx being included in the list at
one point...

The original idea of the list was to support the whole line of HPLX's,
right? And then HP changed the line without changing the name;
confusion.  Now it seems pretty clear that members of the list see it
as supporting the DOS versions of the HPLX, and not WINCE <g>.

What to do? A name change to DOS-HPLX (or similar)? A big notice to
each new subscriber? But I think the problem comes so seldom that there
is no need to go to this trouble -- but just that we remember that
it is easy for a newcomer to make this mistake. We should be
gentle and understanding (and pity the poor owner in our hearts),
as we direct them elsewhere. We should not flame those less
fortunate than ourselves.

Of course, if they *then* say something in favour of WinCE over DOS ....
well, then OPEN SEASON!

I have a Palm Pilot Pro with modem, works fantastic, very fast, syncs
with tons of PIM software, mostly using 3rd party conduits. I got it
last August (1997) and since then have owned a Newton MP120, MP130,
MP2000, MP2100, eMate 300, Sharp SE-500, SHarp YO-370, Compaq C140 WinCE
2.0, Cassiopeia A-11 WInce 2.0 and an HP 620LX. (I like gadgets?)

Out of all the above the Palm Pilot is faster and more flexible than any
I have owned. If syncing with OUtlook, ACT, GOldmine or one of the other
more popular PIMS then the Pilot can't be beat. IT is simple to use but
not the swiftest for note taking although I am getting better at
Grafitti. I can thumb type my 200lx as fast as I can enter notes with
Grafitti though. It is very easy on batteries (like the 200lx).

What am I doing on this list you ask? I own an HP200LX and 700LX and
find them to be nearly as fast as the Pilot. If I could get my Pilot
address book into my 200LX I'd use it for a while as my main PDA.

I like the larger screen and flexibility of the 200LX series.

But, if my Libretto 50CT has the instant-on features and great battery
life of the pilot/200lx it would be the ideal PDA for me. Hope this
helps and if anybody knows how to get my Pilot addresses into the 200LX
I'd like to have that info.

tnx

Well, I have to agree that the responses were definitely childish and
unfriendly.  The address is HPLX which does include units other than the
95/100/200.  He may have been steered here inadvertantly and the list
name does not clarify matters.

Since there was an interest on having a circuit modeler on the palmtop I
thought I might post this. I found a eval version of Pspice 5 for dos.
Worked pretty well on a 1X HPLX if slow. Perfect if you want the same thing
on both the palmtop and desktop. Posted it to Mitch to put on the SUPER
site. The only thing is Microsim has changed hands and I can't get a manual
for it. Does anyone have the production version they might want to sell? or
know how to edit the component library? or have a manual they want to sell?
Thanks

I still think that the fellow deliberately tried to provoke the
membership of this list, and has achieved his goal. But I may be
wrong. The true meaning of this episode might remain one of the
unsolved mysteries of nature.

One thing is certain though: he has facilitated some expressed
emotions. His tenure here was brief, but he burned brightly.

Let's hope he fares better with the Mac crowd.

One of the things I missed switching from a paper calendar book
to the HP200LX was having a highly visible weekly compass form.
This is a roles & goals sheet based on Stephen Covey's books.
"Seven Habits for Highly Effective People" and "First Things First".

I did grab the database version someone had done but without it
Right out front, it was easy to ignore and forget.

So I ended up creating one of my own in a paint program and using
it as a topcard for my HP200LX.  I am sending a zip with some
samples to Mitch at the super site.

UNSUBSCRIBE

I originally joined this list because its participants engaged in useful,
helpful, technical dialog. The pathetic remarks directed to someone's
legitimate question about an upgrade are all too typical of the general
tenor of this group in recent months.

It is sad to see that what had been an intelligent forum for technical
exchange was subverted by a technological parochialism that will ultimately
be its undoing.

Please change your mailing list name to WWW.LUDDITES.NET
It is far more appropriate.

  That's not the point!  With a generic name like "HPLX" what did you
expect?  The poor guy was looking for help, and the response he got was
nothing short of juvenile.  A simple "look else where" would have been
sufficient, or have we lost all sense of civility?  Would you be able to
say the same thing to the guys face, in person?
  People aren't psychic email readers.  Many of us have at least look at
a WinCE upgrade at one point and might have gleamed some information that
just might be useful to someone else.  Heck, I bought a 620LX for my wife
because she's use to Windows already.
  Oh, and if you have any flamage to reply with, kindly do so *in private
email*!  No need to clutter the list with your insensitive remarks.
(Better yet, come to my house and say it to my face.  I guarantee I'll
have my baseball bat ready in rebuttal :-)

Change the mailing list name to a web address...? Oh, I get it. We're
Luddites because we use DOS instead of the latest and greatest WinCE.
And we don't understand technology.

Honestly, I think the list should have been *a lot* more civil in
The Incident. But you address this rudeness with name-calling?

But I must confess: your name-calling hit home with me. Ouch.
For example, I've often thought that I would never have flown in a
Hydrogen-filled Zepplin.  No matter what the advertising. No Siree!
But that's me, resisting new technology, sticking to the old ways. Just
call me Lud. Ned Lud.


> I originally joined this list because its participants engaged in useful,
> helpful, technical dialog.

Recent threads on screen, commandline shells, languages, solar panels,
assemblers and data logging seemed useful, helpful and technical to me.
But that's just me.

I haven't been reading these posts so have lost track of the thread,
however, I assume you are talking about the fellow who wanted to upgrade
his ROM (I think with a better operating system- wasn't it, something like
GEOS??) I did respond to his post very civilly. It was only when some
namecaller called me ignorant that the responses got crude but then I
wasn't even commenting to the original poster any more. I think you'll find
that people on this list post very civilly 99% of the time! Of course if
people don't like the advice- well they asked for it!

>Would you be able to

Well, I hope she's very happy with it. However, I would be really curious
to know where this idea came from that just because someone finds a product
somewhat useful that makes it something above being denigrated or
critizied. You should see the way people have looked at my 200LX and the
comments I've gotten- some of the were not nice at all. However this is the
way things are! People, sometimes, will critize things they don't like or
understand. (But I think you find people on this list understand Windows CE
very well).

I was (again) sitting behind someone taking notes on a sub-notebook.
It was a Sony Pentium, very small and nice looking, and I was impressed.

Even more so when he quickly copied down a tree diagram in the Win95
word-processor. I began thinking: I can't do THAT on my hp200lx.

But A few minutes later, I was suprised to see his machine laboriously
rebooting. While he missed the lecture.

It just doesn't seem right, does it?

I'm still impressed, though.

I don't think there is a manual.
However there are plenty of hands-on books on PSPICE (many of them cover
the DOS version) with plenty of examples. Those I have seen expects you
to know nothing about the program (or for that matter about circuit
analysis).

I have Franz Monssen: PSpice with Circuit Analysis ISBN 0-675-21376-2

Alternatively if you already is an expert in circuit analysis: The
program is a (simplified) DOS version of SPICE, which is a research
project from Berkeley. They may have some documentation lying around.

Hi Hans,

The only other recommendation that I have is to load mouse.com on your
HP get a null modem adapter and gender changer and use a serial mouse.

That what I some times use with Windows 3.0 and Wordperfect 5.1.

TASM is definitely better. (Programming in assembly is my daily work; I
have written projects with millions lines of code, complete screen and menu
libraries, etc). For small programs, try A86. It is extremely fast, and the
compiler+debugger use less than 100Kb. A linker is not required.

Please don't let the few dictate how you feel about the many.
I've seen plenty of **LX users get flamed on
comp.sys.handhelds, etc., by CE users, but don't count you in
with those "few".  You have been very helpful to the DOS users
among us, with PCMCIA help and pricing, and I wish to commend
you.  Please reconsider.

In the future, please direct WinCE users to www.windowsce.com(or other

For the record: While the main intent of this LIST is discussion of the

early on, and the decision was to allow WinCE discussion unless it
began to predominate the LIST.

Content-Type: text

Last week or so there was a post about Y2K and Leap Year.  As best as
my feeble mind can recall, year 2000 is *not* a leap year.  Yet the
appointment book and 123 seem to think it is.  I haven't checked the
BIOS to see if it thinks its a leap year or not.  Have I missed something
here?  To me, this would imply that something is *not* Y2K compliant if
it doesn't properly calculate leap years.  Please explain and/or set me
straight...

For whatever it is worth, Outlook98 certainly beleives 2000 is leep yeae,
Franklin/Covey day planners show 2000 as leap year, so 2000 must be leap
year.

I don't think it'll fit into the

I also have an early hardware bilinual

Don't know how to make it work

2000 _is_ a leap year.  The rule is: every four years we have a leap year,
EXCEPT in century years (i.e. 1700, 1800, 1900), UNLESS the century is
divisible by 400, in which case it IS a leap year.  So 1600 was a leap
year, but not 1700, 1800, or 1900, but 2000 will be one.  All of this
helps account for the fact that the time it takes the earth to go around
the sun is almost, but not quite exactly, 365.25 days.

It is the server of the Web document that executes the cgi

Huh? I am not clear what you ask. There is no way for a server
to ask HV to execute a program on the 200LX. Try Activex and
Java for that. This is outside HTML 3.2 specs. Or did I miss
your question?

It works fine. What they probably refer to is that you cannot
place a partial volume on the card, i.e. say half of it
stacked and the other half unstacked. That cannot be done
because S4 sees the pcmcia card as a removable device (it is)
and allows you to stack the whole thing only.

Having reread this, it is technically incorrect: You can place
a stacked volume which takes only part of the card, but you
cannot _access_ both parts at the same time, i.e. copy from
the stacked part to the unstacked part etc.

There are ways to play with the pc card so it identifies
itself as a non-removable device, but this changes from card
to card, and I do not know how the 200LX will react.

I believe Stan replied to you already. You cannot get rid of
the headers themselves, they are part of the message you
download. What you CAN do is choose to not display them. Try
Menu View Headers.

As to changing stuff: I guess you are on your own in terms of
deciding about "something important" :) ... My view is that if
you really feel you know what you are doing, great.
Otherwise, it is like a russian roulette: It may work now,
and maybe later, but then it it may fall apart on you. Without
very detailed knowledge about the items in the POST.CFG a
decision that some change is important or not important may
cause your file and setup damage. Good luck, you may need it
:)...

HV handles file transfer, but not FTP. FTP is a completely
different protocol to transfer files (e.g. get them and send
them). Your problem is probably interference from SysMgr with
your COM port. Try running this outside SysMgr.

It will prompt you.

Enter the login id when prompted.

The protocols are totally different. The servers involved are
totally different. It makes no sense to compare. And in
addition: There are so many components involved in email (as
in other file transfers) so blaming Post/LX only is really
not logical. It could be a busy POP3 server, it could be a
busy SMTP server, it could be lots of other things.

Yes, that's one of the other Y2K bugs coming up that alot of people
aren't aware of - miscalculation of leap years.  I believe it goes
something like "Divisible by 4, but not by 100 *unless divisible by 400*"
It's that "unless.." part that gets overlooked and will cause some
programs to incorrectly think 2000 is not a leap year (which it is).

Whoa there,
This was an isolated incident here. The large majority of our
correspondences remain useful, helpful and technical.
If you wan't to see some real childish behavior, check out Windows CE-Talk.
I know, I've been monitoring it for awhile just to track what's happening
with the wince users. I've gone so far as to filter some of their member's

This has been discussed on cis' HPHAND a number of times.  The year 2000
is an exception to the exception for Leap Year counting.  The HP handles
it correctly.

The year 2000 is a leap year.  Any year that divides evenly by 4 is a leap
year.  The century years are slightly different.  The first two digits of a
century year must be evenly divisible by 4.  2000, is, but 1900 was not.
The year is 365.2425 days long, not 365.25.  In four hundred years one extra
day is picked up.  Therefore only certain century years are leap years.

he wanted to upgrade his wince rom version and thought the price he found

and someone recommended an HP200LX as an upgrade. I agree!

I've seen enough of this now that I have to Once Again put in my $.02 for
Thompson Automation's AWK compiler (TAWK) (www.tasoft.com/~thompson/).  It
takes less than 300K, and you can Diet it down to under 200K.  It has all
the pwoer of Perl, plus you can do anything with it that you can do with C,
including DOS interrupt calls, port I/O, direct memory access, etc.  And you
don't have to worry about boundary checking or getting/freeing memory.  And
it will automatically write very large arrays to EMS or disk  (just about
anything runs in 250K RAM).  And you get the power of the AWK language plus
extensions.  Downsides: it is slower than a C or ASM program, and helps to
be comfortable with C.  Upsides: it is easy, fast, and fun.

You do go a bit over the top don't you. I merely suggested that this is =

the correct forum for WinCE questions and you respond as though *I* had
flamed the original poster. Please check the thread more carefully. Oh, =
and
BTW, I also think he was sent away too harshly, but I've seen a lot worse
when people ask things in the wrong Usenet groups. It's unfortunate, but
that's the way it goes.

Maybe we *should* do something to make the list's purpose more apparent.
Unfortunately people do seem to just dive in without checking these days.
If he'd read the list for a few days it would have been perfectly clear
that there is no WinCE discussion here (except for these occasional
things).

=46inally, I did email the guy to say I thought he hadn't been very well
treated, and got a pretty unfriendly reply - this didn't exactly do his
case much good.

Thanks to all those kind souls who set me straight on this matter.  Now
I have re-learned the leap year rules, and hopefully I won't forget it
next time a leap-century rolls around in year 2400.

Thanks,

I have a laptop at work that is running dos.  It has two pc card slots on

How do I do this?  I tried accessing the card as d: drive but I get invalid

Any ideas?

The year 2000 IS a leap year, but it's an exception to an exception!
Generall, years divisible by 4 are leap years. This corrects for the
fact that a full rotation of the Earth around the Sun actually takes
approximately 365.25 days, not 365.  However, the exact number is
slighly less than 365.25 so to keep the calendar correct, every 100
years the leap year is dropped. Unfortunately, this over corrects and
therefore, every 400 years the leap year is added back.  In addition, I
think there are other adjustments but we won't have to worry about them
for many centuries!   Hope this is helpful.

I just found this mini-computer while catching up information about Linux,
and since we have a few Linux folks floating around on the list I thought it
might be of interest. If you look at this device, I have but one question:
Apache on a handheld? A little extreme, but I like it :)

maybe this'll work on the LX also.

In a message dated 98-08-31 11:24:41 EDT, you write:

<< 2000 _is_ a leap year.  The rule is: every four years we have a leap year,
 EXCEPT in century years (i.e. 1700, 1800, 1900), UNLESS the century is
 divisible by 400, in which case it IS a leap year.  So 1600 was a leap
 year, but not 1700, 1800, or 1900, but 2000 will be one. >>

In the US, and in the current era, its a lot easier.  If its a US presidential
election year, its leap year.  (Impechments do not effect election years.)

Cordially,

Is there a way to redirect the comm port via a simple command before a
application is run.

For example,  I normally use qfax on comm 1.  But once in a while I want to
use it on comm 2.  Without changing the programs setup, can I create a
simple batch file that will redirect comm 1 to comm 2, and then switch it
back when the program is exited?

Has anyone noticed a conflict between HV and KEY200.COM.  When key200
is loaded and I try to load a local file in HV for which an index
file already exists, I get the following error message: "Error could
not created index file (LAB)"  The problem doesn't occur the first time
I view a file or if key200 is not loaded.

I thought I'd see if anyone knows of a work around for this problem
before I reported it as a bug.

I must have missed some email on this.  All I saw was a bunch of people
slamming a guy for posting a HPLX question to a HPLX list.  He was probably
just not familiar with that fact that this listing is geared more towards
LX100/200's.  Perhaps we should change the name of the listing to HPLX200
(or 100, or 95?)

just read the other responses prior to my server sending this message out.
Noticed that no one flamed the palm pilot dialog that was posted the same
day.  Maybe there is hope for us yet :o)

Subject:      Best Wireless E-mail Solution
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=US-ASCII

What is the best way to set up the 200LX with wireless e-mail?

1.  Cell phone, PC Card, and ISP.
2.  Radio systems (ardis, ram mobile data, etc.)
3.  Cellular Digital Packet Data
4.  Others

I have dialup ISP already, so I'm leaning towards the cell phone
solution, but some of the other options seem less bulky and more suited
to data communications (I don't want to make voice calls, so a cell
phone seems like overkill.)  Are there any companies that make a "cell
phone" that only does data but that can access the regular cellular
network?  I couldn't find any.

It was mentioned you cannot export data to ModStat. I think you can. What
you need to do is get the data entered in Lotus then print it into a file.
Change the name of the file into a six character one with no extension.
Then ModStat will read the file:).

John,

I'm the author of MODSTAT.  The files are all ASCII files.  If you create one
and then look at it you should see the method I used.  The first line is
usually a value to inidcate how many groups are in the file or, in the case of
some ANOVA tests, it indicates the number of each variable and the number in
each cell.

Some students at VCU found that they could export Excel files to Modstat by
making only minor changes.

The files are set up so that routines that would be associated would be able
to read the files of the other associated routines but not files from other
routines,  for instance, a file created for a One-Way ANOVA Between-groups can
be read by corresponding nonparametric tests but can't be read by a One-Way
ANOVA Within-groups.  A file created by a Pearson liner regression routine can
be read by routines to look for Power, Log, Exponential or polynomial
regression routines and any corresponding nonparametric routine, Spearman or
Kendall.

To see the file structure simply create a dummy file with whatever routine you
want.  Then look at the file with any program that will display an ASCII file.
If you then have data that can be exported from another program into ASCII you
simply change the header and sometimes the list value in the file.  I used
-999 to show division between groups of data and at the end of a file.

If you need help, contact me.
