That impressed me, the capability to download news and info to a palm for offline reading. Not enough to give up my 200, but it did impress me. I figured, with HV and a utility or two, is it possible to do the same thing on the 200? It seems all I would need is a program to reach out to, say, my Yahoo news page and get that page plus one link down on that page.

Be careful with the nicads in the 95lx. It's not designed for them and if you ever accidentally insert a battery backwards it fries the motherboard. I haven't seen this myself but a lot of people reported this happening in the early days of HPHAND. If I remember right it happened immediately and every time a battery was inserted backwards. There is no charger in the 95lx. When it's plugged in it runs off the adapter.

AFAIK, the index files are binary files, so they only contain "nonsense characters". But if you get an insufficient memory message, the file must be huge! What does DIR show as the file size? Please run scandisk on the drive or at least chkdsk /f to find crosslinked files. I assume there is simething wrong in your FAT.

I bought a Libretto with a 6 gig hard drive and a 166 mmx processor. It'll run windows, dos, and linux software and works well as a companion to the 200LX.

The Libretto is just a tad larger than the 720LX and isn't crippled by WinCE. I expect a long life out of my 200LX-Libretto combination.

It did not work long enough. :( I think I need an advice of the glue chosen. My 200LX is "very badly cracked". I've tried all glues I know ("instant-glue") and ("two-element-glue") Including a metal-plate from a floppy with "instant-glue" (the so-called "Sekundenkleber" in German) for reinforcement. No luck so far. The "two-component-glue" works so far on my 200LX because I've loosened the hinge -- so loose that it does not break again, but *too loose* at the same time, that it does not hold for some screen-angle. :( Any idea?

And if there is no card inserted, I'm entitled to clear the BIOS data area 40:02 to 40:03 to zero's. This program is very conservative and does not do anything I consider is aggresive. It does not even default to clear the screen, because I consider this as an intrusion to private screen especially for command-line users. But, I have following problem and am forced to handle. If CIC's (Card Installation Clients) is not loaded resident, they don't have a chance to monitor the insertion/removal of the card. Or, if they don't hook to the power on/off interrupts, they also loose track of the slot. So, it is possible that the BIOS data area is left "configured" for a COM2 at 02F8h, but either no card is inserted or cards other than serial device (id=0x02) is inserted. Since I use these pointers to scan for active serial ports, I'll encounter a conflict of a non-zero pointer (usually to 02F8h) pointing to a non-existent UART. Of course the status shown will not be correct. Of course, I could have leave it alone and not show the serial port if no card is there or the card of is type other a serial one. But, well, I've forgotten the true reason I'll have to clear 40:02-03 ... :( Sorry, the reason is not obvious and is quite trivial ... I mean important.

The tricky part is re-linking the files after copying them over, so HV can read the whole "tree" of HTML, folowing all the links. I am not sure how the avantgo program manages that. You might be able to copy a whole treee to your palmtop and then use some search and replace programs to fix the links to suit the directory you copy the tree to. > It seems all I would need is a program to reach out to, say, > my Yahoo news page and get that page plus one link down on > that page. Do you mean your "my_yhaoo" or personalised news? Even avantgo won't get that for you will it? I thought avantgo only grabs true "avantgo" sites - these are all publically accesible. "my_yahoo" on the other hand requires a log-in with your user name and password. So, you are thinking of getting your yahoo page down to a desktop - for example using an IE "favourite" which is sychronised with your site and stores the pages offline. Then you want to copy those to your palmtop for viewing with HV. I am sure that could be done - just needs re-linking together. > Then I can transfer that to my handheld and read > it as I have time during the day. Does this program exist? Not as such. Instead ROBOWEB/LX bypasses the desktop and gets pages direct from the WWW to your handheld. It is free but does require the commercial program called WWW/LX from D&A Software. Most folk use ROBOWEB/LX to get web pages transmitted to their POST/LX mailbox as text. This way many small HTML files are put in the one DOS text file, which saves a lot of disk/cluster use. However it can do pure HTML as well - while testing I downloaded the whole www.dasoft.com site and read it offline on HV :) Anyway, if you have WWW/LX and use POST/LX I can recommend ROBOWEB/LX. Quite a few folk have got it working - the instructions are in README.TXT in roboweb.zip. It comes with a whole lot of avantgo channels pre-installed, plus many other sites. It's amazing, after 6 months I've hardly had to change a thing! It still works fine. But of course it opens up the "news overload" situation, with increased ISP charges etc, and it doesn't take too long for a mailbox to be 1MB, for example. - Tony ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 2 Jan 2002 22:08:26 -0700 Reply-To: Richard and Patti Smith Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Richard and Patti Smith Organization: Orion On-Site Computer Services Subject: Re: FLUFF: Re: Offensive language on the list Comments: To: ohdamnthathurts@YAHOO.COM MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I agree.

I guess I did not explain myself very well. I meant that I could not read the message file, which should be ascii. I have now archived the corrupted file, and deleted it from thw www directory. Everything now works fine. A new MAIL.I file was created and I can read _new_ messages again. The problem now is how to fix the old corrupted message file. As I have said, with the view function in filer I can read it and find that there is a bunch of nonsense characters at the beginning. But neither PE nor MEMO can read the file, so I can not edit out the characters. Is there another text editor I can try? I also need to append the new file to the old one when the latter has been edited, how do I do that? Any idea welcome.

My guess: If you have a string of say 20 binary characters at the beginning then PE goes into "binary" mode, with overstrike on and doesn't behave as normal (no wrapping etc, good protection for a binary file). You should be able to load the file in PE? If yes, then press Fn+INS and insert say 12-20 spaces right at the beginning. Then save the file. Now- reload it and I think PE will function like it normally does - you will be able to select and delete etc. If no, I wonder why? > I also need to append the new file to the old one when the > latter has been edited, how do I do that? type new.i >> old.i Good Luck! - Tony ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2002 12:27:23 +0100 Reply-To: gonter+usenet@wu-wien.ac.at Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Gerhard Gonter Subject: Re: HP200LX MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Russel Brooks wrote: > Isn't there some way to change the language the LX uses?

Barry has found an *ASCII* file for me in his old floppies from HPHAND called "CHAP5.TXT". This is a *very precious* file that cannot be found on the net. It was "made" by Everett Kaser (one from the team in HP) 5/6/94, edited also by Mark E. Huss (5/1794), and sent to Barry. This file contains description of the BIOS, i.e. the interrupts and the BIOS data area, memory map (figures were skipped), table of keyboard scancodes, It is legal to distribute this file to people who need it. If anyone is in need such data, please let one of us know. If there are twoo many requests, how about keeping it on super? I know, it's about 95LX -- a holy relic, but it's ... Somehow, I just love them all. If anyone happen to be able to find more data, such as other chapters of the 95LX Developer's Guide, please let me know. BTW. Have anyone really seen a printed 95LX Developer's Guide? I've used the program key200.com on the 95LX to swap the [Filer] and [Tab] keys, so that they can be reached motorically by hand. But Key200 does not seem to recognize the "blue keys" on the 95LX. It must have the "wrong" scancodes. Have anyone done something like this. The source code of KEY200 is contained in the Developer's Kit, so it is possible to make a KEY95. But if anyone has already worked on it, the labor can be saved. Also, I'm I'm reporting the use of 95LX. I got a HP/Sandisk 5MB flash card from eBay, and this card can perfectly be accessed by using a single driver called SDPDRV.SYS. One could even "boot from the flash" if there is a CONFIG.SYS on C: containing the driver. MATLAB student vesion "S3.5" runs on the HP95LX without coprocessor. But of course the graphic features are not available (due to the 95LX display). But I mostly use the command-lines only. It is powerful enough. MATLAB is a numerically oriented math. program which is considered one of the most useful tools by the researchers besides MAPLE, MATHCAD, MuPad et al. Note that it does not support symbolic algebra by itself. I have INTERLNK/INTERRSVR on the HP95LX and it communicates very well with my laptop running DOS v5.0. That is to say, INTERLNK/INTERSVR does work with *3* serial lines (TXD, RXD, and Gound), because the 95LX does not have other serial lines. *But* I'm now asking another question. Have anyone made it to use INTERLNK/INTERSVR on any of our palmtops via IR ? I think I've tried a couple of times on 200LX's and gave up. I though that INTERLNK/INTERSVR needs other serial lines for hardware hand-shaking, but this was incorrect because it works on 95LX using only three lines. So, there must be another reason that INTERLNK/INTERSVR does not work with IR. I very badly want to see them work via IR. Could you please help? Because INTERLNK/INTERSVR is the best approach (for me) for file-transfer and most precious one. You "mount" a drive via serial lines on a remote computer and access them simply as virtual local drives. So that it works for all dos applications except those doing low-level disk operations such as disk-editing, and so on. You may, for example, use LIST.COM to view the remote host. You may edit a file remotely on a laptop on your HP95LX using your favorate editor. You may use a graphic program on the laptop which does not run on 95LX to view anything on your 95LX. You may use the CPACK-filer on your laptop to use drives on your 95LX without starting $SYSMGR on 95LX (instead, INTERSVR). But I cannot log to drive A: using the filer on 95LX. Could you please tell me how?

If a port is found, there is an algorithm to set the COM1 through COM4 ports. If the port dosen't exist, it should be zeroed out. If COM2: is not zeroed, you can test for a working UART.

I want to clarify what I said in this paragraph. The problem is with inserting a nicad battery backwards. Not with inserting an alkaline battery backwards.

I would've thought inserting /any/ batteries backward would fry any motherboard that isn't protected against such mishaps.

I was afraid that anyone would tell me to check the activilty of UART's because this would again increase the size of the program. The CardBIOS on all of our palmtops work quite reliably and seem to be always keeping good track of the status of the PCMCIA splot, hot-insertion/-removal or power on/off. (NB! people, it is known that hot-insertion/ -removal cannot not be done on a HP100LX. It can be, but should better be avoided on 95/200LX if not necessary. Only sometimes, it is necessary to hot-insert/-remove a card on the HP95LX to solve some problem, so that the system will be aware of the status-change of the slot.) So, I've get a bit from either BIOS area or a I/O port to see if a card is there but I've done it myself to fetch the Function ID of the card. It is very *tedious* to do those "tuple-communications". :( It also increase the size of the program. So, I'm thinking that since the CardBIOS is always there for us, it should also be saving the Card ID somewhere in the working memory. If I can find the location they're using, I could have saved many, many bytes of the program! and will not have to do those tuple-things. Any idea? I need only the Function ID and the Manufacturer ID.

Thanks, Bob. It works. But The filer on 95LX (same to 200LX) will not (or refuses to) see a virtual drive provided by interlnk.exe which has been loaded prior to launch of $SYSMGR. On the other hand, the CPACK running on another laptop will be withing the filer remote drives coming from a HP95LX with intersvr.exe started on it. The SysMgr's on all of our palmtops are all very *stingy* (I think it has to be too, because it's designed to be the boss.) The SysMgr blocks these IRQ's and does not chains to previous ISR(inrterrupt service routines). This includes the alarm Int 4Ah. But, still I think it could have been made a little bit more tolerant.

First, it is normal that at the beginning of the *.i files (and at the beginning of each neew message inside that file) there are about 25 non-ASCII caracters. These are flags used by Post/LX to save information about the message which follows this non-ASCII string, such as "new", "read/unread", "marked" and the name of the mailbox the message came through, which is different from the file name in case the message has been moved to another box / folder. In an editor, these characters will probably show up as black sqares. What I said before, that these info is stored inside the index files, is wrong. Don't know exactly what is stored in the index files. PE should be able to open the .i file. At least here it is. And it doesn't switch into a binary mode, as Tony assumed. It opens the file just like any other ASCII file. If it doesn't open it for you, maybe the file is too big. Please do the tests I suggested before, running scandisk or chkdsk /f on the drive, so we can see if the drive or the FAT is corrupted. This could cause such a failure that a program thinks the file it shall open is way too large for it, even if it is only a few bytes or kbytes in size. Then please report what the DOS "dir" command says about the file. If you have tried to fix the file before and maybe corrupted the binary string at the very beginning, you can simply go down in the file and copy'n paste another binary string from another message to the top of the file. Make sure to keep a copy of the original file before doing any modifications! > I also need to append the new file to the old one when the > latter has been edited, how do I do that? As Tony suggested. Or, use PE and copy and past the contents of the new file to the end of the old one.

Now that I have a 95LX too (thanks, btw ;-) ), maybe I also should look for a card which works inside it. Ah, by the way: The 95LX you sent to me is really a 1MB machine, although nothing like that is written on the screen edge. I thought every 1MB 95LX had written "1MB" on the upper right of the screen. If I call chkdsk, I see there is 777xxx bytes disk space, but (I don't know how) over 350kB used by user files, although I didn't do anything with the unit except switching it on. ;-) Do you know where all the files are? hidden?

For reinforcement you might try a fine mesh screen, the wires in the screen will hold the crack together. Using screen instead of sheet means the adhesive can surround the wires allowing a mechanical connection as well as the adhesive bond. Clean the screen with acid (lemon juice?) followed by a water rinse to kep residual acid from attacking the wires then dry quickly to prevent corrosion. If you do end up using sheet make sure to roughen it (sandpaper) so that the adhesive will have a better surface to grip. Clean the surface with a solvent (alcohol or acetone) to remove any dust. -- Andrew King Ann Arbor Michigan technology is the answer, what was the question?

It opens the file just like any other ASCII file. Agreed!:) For a normal .i file PE works normally. (PE treats those particular "black box" characters specially I think, in deciding whether to go into binary mode or not) I was just guessing that some other binary material before the first message might be an explanation of why PE was perhaps not working normally. I assumed PE would load the file as file size is never a problem for PE.

I recently wanted to read a web site off-line, so I went looking for a suitable program and found WebCopier. It has a free version and a more feature-rich "premium" version which is not free. The free version does everything I want. Indeed, I must confess I don't understand what the premium features are for! You create a project which defines the web source, how deep to follow links (with separate values for source server and other servers), where to store the files on your HDD, whether to copy images, sounds, java script etc., plus quite a few more options. The off it goes and makes a local copy of the site with all links adjusted. Best of all, the links are relative, so you can just copy the newly created folder to your handheld and use it there. It's at http://www.maximumsoft.com/ Hope others will enjoy this program as much as I do. --=20 Chris Randle ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2002 15:43:48 -0800 Reply-To: Bulent Bicioglu Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Bulent Bicioglu Subject: Used 200lx 2MB for sale In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii It works, but has a damaged screen (missing lines on screen, broken latch and some physical damage at hinge...), broken battery cover.

First, it is normal that at the beginning of the *.i files (and at the beginning of each neew message inside that file) there are about 25 non-ASCII caracters. These are flags used by Post/LX to save information about the message which follows this non-ASCII string, such as "new", "read/unread", "marked" and the name of the mailbox the message came through, which is different from the file name in case the message has been moved to another box / folder. In an editor, these characters will probably show up as black sqares. What I said before, that these info is stored inside the index files, is wrong. Don't know exactly what is stored in the index files. PE should be able to open the .i file. At least here it is. And it doesn't switch into a binary mode, as Tony assumed. It opens the file just like any other ASCII file. If it doesn't open it for you, maybe the file is too big. Please do the tests I suggested before, running scandisk or chkdsk /f on the drive, so we can see if the drive or the FAT is corrupted. This could cause such a failure that a program thinks the file it shall open is way too large for it, even if it is only a few bytes or kbytes in size. Then please report what the DOS "dir" command says about the file. If you have tried to fix the file before and maybe corrupted the binary string at the very beginning, you can simply go down in the file and copy'n paste another binary string from another message to the top of the file. Make sure to keep a copy of the original file before doing any modifications! > I also need to append the new file to the old one when the > latter has been edited, how do I do that? As Tony suggested. Or, use PE and copy and past the contents of the new file to the end of the old one.

I've just downloaded WebCopier and have been reading the forum at their site. It reminds me so so much of ROBOWEB/LX - especially the questions in the forum about URL filters etc. They even have scheduling - that is now added to ROBOWEB/LX too. Looks like they even have 2 ways to fig - "smart" and "recursive". I started out with a recursive method but it was inclined to get a little lost on some sites, so changed it over to what is presumably "smart" :) WebCopier is exactly what folk have been looking for here. A most interesting read for me. The funny thing is I mostly use ROBOWEB/LX to convert everything to a series of mailbox messages as pure text.

Because of this I was always afraid to use nicads in the 95lx. I think I have put alkalines in backwards but I'm not sure. If I did no problem was caused. But I don't really remember. I am sure that's a problem with nicads. In fact I remember a discussion on HPHAND when we found out the 100lx was going to be available in a few days. I think I asked the question whether it would be safe with nicads and of course the answer was that it was designed with nicads in mind. But you can always test it yourself. Put some alkalines in backwards. If that doesn't fry it try some backwards nicads. If that fries it you know my memory is correct. If the alkalines fry it you know I got it wrong.

The palmtop's screen, being an LCD, does not suffer from any kind of burn problem, so this is not a problem to worry about, but the palmtop must be on to charge the batteries. If you have it plugged in and the screen is NOT on, it is not charging and there is a problem (unless you have specifically used one of the utilities on SUPER to turn the display off while leaving the power on). This issue is actually covered in the FAQ, I believe, at http://www.hplx.net/faq.faq.html ... and there's also a 200LX Power System FAQ at http://www.hplx.net/faq.power.html. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2002 20:45:33 -0800 Reply-To: patrick@west.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Patrick West Subject: Re: Are you happy with your DS mod?

Slow? It's a 10 mhz machine. What's this about slow? That's 10 million somethings per second. I considered the double speed mod when it first became available and I decided as soon as I need the extra speed I'd get it. So far I haven't felt the need. :) It was too slow with minix and that did make me consider it. But I don't think I'd keep minix on it for long anyway.

It is absolutly necessary, in my opinion, if you work a lot with CPU intensive programs. Even if you "only" work with huge databases, or with Post/LX containing lots of messages, or use HV a lot, it is a great advantage. The drawback is, that it is possible that you cannot read the screen while no DS driver is loaded. It depends on the composition of electronical components if it's readable or not. So you should always have a "bootable" flash card with the driver at hand, in case you loose your C drive due to a power failure. Or you should be familiar enough with your palmtop that you can copy the driver blindly from another location to the C drive via Laplink or so. Also the serial and IR port and some other components of the palmtop don't work properly without the driver. So the driver is a must. I have not seen any program which doesn't work with the upgrade. Except Volkov Commander, but there is a patch which makes it work, available on SUPER. Oh, as I have heard, the Silicom Ethernet cards don't work with the DS upgrade. The upgrade is removeable at any time without destroying anything (except your C: drive data). So you can go for it, and if you really encounter problems which make you wish to have the upgrade removed, you can do so.

"Burned in" is NOT a problem with an LCD display, it only affects CRTs where the electron beam is always lighting up a fixed pattern. Even then I'm not sure it is a problem anymore; I believe modern CRTs protect against that old prroblem. Cheers...

I will take note that while we relish the HP200, the OS was primarily developed by Lotus Dev.Corp with some added SW from HP. The HP Jornada 720 is really not different philosophically. Microsoft did the OS and most of the apps. HP did add some worthwhile apps & utiilities. In tath respect, the pattern is set - one company develops the OS, another provides the HW. Palm is trying to do both, and slipping. I am interested in which Peter is using on his J720. ? We can take this sort of discussion off this list, although I think it is useful.

I don't know if charging shortens the life or not but I'm not willing to risk it. I think that's something that no-one really knows. Everyone makes their best guess and goes with it. I just can't see a reason to use it as a charger and take that chance when battery chargers are so cheap and swapping batteries is so easy. I think external charging is the simplest solution even if there is no problem with internal charging. Somebody mentioned a charger with fold up prongs like the HP adapter has at the www.batterybarn.com and I sent off for one. It was pretty nice but it wouldn't shut off for nimh so I called them and they sent a replacement that day via priority mail at no charge. The box it came in also contained prepaid return box. The replacement works fine and it's a nice charger. And the Battery Barn seems to be a good place to do business. Thanks to whoever suggested it and I'm sorry I don't remember who you were.

Barry ----------------------- PUTTING NON-ALKALINE BATTERIES IN BACKWARDS CAN DAMAGE THE 95LX? According to an HP Tech Support person, the 95LX does have reverse battery protection, but the circuit has been tested only with alkaline batteries, and HP will give no assurances that it will work or not self-destruct if a user installs Ni-Cds or equivalent. That is, if you install alkaline batteries backwards, the circuit will protect the 95LX without burning up, while all bets are off if you use Ni-Cds.

The advantage I see to internal battery charging is that the poorly-designed battery cover won't have to be opened as much, and thus you stand a much lower chance of breaking off the prongs. Also, if you never remove your batteries, you never have to rely on your CR2032 battery to retain the memory contents, until you really do need it when your batteries unexpectedly die on you. Personally, I leave my iBats from Thaddeus in all the time (and they charge at the "fast" 100mA rate for probably 16 hours a day, at least) and haven't had any trouble with my palmtop or batteries. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 5 Jan 2002 10:46:32 -0500 Reply-To: theise@netins.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Theodore Heise Subject: Re: Are you happy with your DS mod?

In other words, the "inner resistor" of an Alkaline is very high compared to the inner resistor of a NiMH. So, if you chort-circuit the Alkaline, it will get warm and a high current will flow depleting the Alkaline in a few minutes. If you short-circuit a NiMH it (and especially the wire you use for the short-circuit) will get extremely hot, MAY explode (!) and the current is so high that it would be depleted in a few seconds. This makes NiMHs more flexibly usable than Alkalines (for example the perform better in flashlights), but they are more dangerous. I think NiCads are somewhere between Alkalines and NiMHs.

I ran a plain 200LX-4M for over a year with a 10M flash card. I set things up to 'read' as much as possible off the A: drive and write to the 3.4M C:. Since I was also running SC and WWWLX it was a tight fit at times but it did work. I had SC swapping to C: which limited the number of sessions but writing to A: was much too slow. During this time I was frequently aware of the small C: but the speed was Ok. Also I would periodicly hear of someone that lost their 2X speed drivers and their LX was acting screwy. Eventually I went for the 32M upgrade *BUT* I stayed at 1X to avoid any speed driver problems. I haven't really been sorry with that decision. More speed is always nice but not having those extra drivers and extra battery drain is also nice. (I use cheap disposable alkalines.) I bought a 200LX-2M used as a 2nd backup a while back. I'm going to send it in soon for the 32M + 2X upgrade. My current 32M + 1X unit can then be its backup. > 32MB upgrade is still RIDICULOUSLY expensive, considering the cost of a 32MB > chip is probably about $10.

If there were millions of LX users all begging for upgrades then I might agree but we're a small and shrinking market with few vendors competing for our business. Under those conditions I won't complain about higher prices to keep them in business. Where would we be without Thadeus to fix our LXs and upgrade them too?

First off, I believe the 32MB chips for the 200LX upgrade are special chips, and thus ridiculously expensive from the get-go -- they aren't $10 chips marked up a zillion percent by the retailer. Second off, the amount of labor involved in installing it, especially when the 200LX in question doesn't already have the memory upgrade slot soldered on the motherboard, is really incredible. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 5 Jan 2002 15:04:14 -0800 Reply-To: "James P.

The upgrade slot is not such a problem. I have soldered several of them to motherboards already, with only one of them failing from time to time. Have resoldered the thing and now it works. You need a very small soldering tip and a calm hand to solder the 36 contacts of the upgrade socket. Much more tricky are the modifications which are needed for the 8-96MB upgrades. You have to remove two pins of the CPU from the motherboard. That's really an adventure! I have done this once, and I am glad if I don't have to do it a second time! If you break one of the legs of the CPU, you can forget about the upgrade (although the stock LX might still work, but you cannot upgrade it anymore). And you can easily destroy the whole board by splashing little amounts of solder tin so that two of the CPU legs have a short-circuit which may not be visible... See the macro shots at http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/stuff/#upgrade There are 2-3 CPU pins per millimeter!

That's actually almost a guarantee that the software is bug free. If it runs into a serious bug the odds are very high that it'll execute data instead of instructions at some point. Maybe HP has provided a way that the cpu can change the color of any data it executes and then they can visually check that. On the other hand they can avoid any liability ever by delivering the unit with some file installed improperly. Very clever people at HP.

If I remember right the memory upgrades use static ram, not dynamic ram. I know in the past that static ram was much more expensive. I assume that it still is. Which makes me wonder....if the lx uses sram no memory refresh should be needed. Does that mean that timer 1 on the PIT chip isn't used by the lx and is available for our use? Rudi, you might want to look into that. If it's true it's a likely solution to your problem.

I think that's something that no-one really knows. Everyone makes their best guess and goes with it. [SNIP] Maybe no one on this list, but I suspect that the people at HP who designed the LXs know. Those doing proper product development for mass production perform things like Worst Case Analysis and Failure Modes and Effects Analysis, and some even bow to the evil MIL-HDBK-217. :o) In the course of designing a system one gets a very good understanding of how all the components react to things like elevated temperatures and self-heating; it's part of the entire process. Given the high quality of HP equipment at the time the LX series was designed, I suspect that internal charging of NiCads (all bets are off for NiMH) doesn't appreciably shorten what they considered the machine's normal lifespan, and I imagine that lifespan was probably pretty long as well. For what it's worth, just as another datapoint: I bought one of the first 2MB 200LXs off the assembly line. I have internally charged NiCads almost from the beginning and NiMHs for the last two, closer to three, years. I am still on the original motherboard (though almost everything else has been replaced ). I have had no problems whatsoever. On the other hand, I run ABC/LX, BattLog, and Mack's KillMsg in /B /M mode, and routinely see main battery voltages down around 2.1V and have never had any issues with crashes or unusual data corruption. I know others have had problems even at voltages much higher than this, so maybe I am just fortunate and have a stellar motherboard. My machine has the internal 4MB memory expansion (for 5MB total) and I routinely run a 32MB card in the slot. Other than being careful not to write to the card (used mostly for backups and archival/"read-only" data) when my main voltage is low, and throwing it on the charger if the batteries are down and I know I have a meeting coming up, I don't take any special precautions. Well, other than frequent backups, but they should hardly be considered a "special precaution." (Please note: I would never, ever recommend or even suggest that anyone else run their LX the way I do; that would be foolish in the extreme. This started out as a controlled test to see how the system would deal with low voltages and different charging profiles, so I could figure out how to set up ABC/LX for safety in long battery runs. I was intentionally looking for the point where I got crashes, data corruption, and so on. But on numerous occasions I ran the machine right down to 2.0V and had the automatic shutoff kick in with nary a problem. So, as the test went on over time, it just sort of became the way I use my machine. If I switched to a new motherboard or LX I wouldn't expect it to act the same way and would probably start testing all over again.) As others have said, I think the increased heat and stress of charging internally needs to be balanced against the wear and tear and frustration related to the battery door, the backup battery issue, and the chance of inserting one or both of the batteries backwards.

How would charging shorten the life when the LX was designed to charge batteries? If HP used decent design practices and components with a fairly decent lifespan how is it going to make a differance whether the component is emitting 1/10th of a watt or a quarter as long as it is rated for it? For example if the memory buss is rated at 1/10th of a watt and HP built for 1/4 watt how will that last longer than if the charging circuit is rated for a quarter and they built for half watt? Because the memory buss doesn't get as warm? That's just silly. > > [SNIP] > > memory expansion (for 5MB total) and I routinely run a 32MB card in the > slot. Other than being careful not to write to the card (used mostly for Considering the LX fast charge pump uses 60 mA and the trickle circuit uses 45 you're putting just as much stress on the power supply by running a flash card or modem. The flash cards probably sink upwards of 60 mA when reading and 100 mA when it is writing. Modems run right around 140 mA or more. Yet nobody thinks a pcmcia card is going to cause premature failure, even though they use more current than the charge pump, yet have you ever felt how warm the LX gets if you use one continuosly? Then there's the heat from the step down circuit for the AC adapter. Hasen't anyone felt how warm the LX gets from that? Yet nobody ever says "I won't use an AC adapter because I am afraid it will cause my LX to fail". . Why would charging cause a failure and these others be safe- besides the circuit warmth which is perfectly normal? If it was so hot it was damaging the LX you wouldn't even be able to touch it.

As far as I know, the only current option is to use a cell phone (either with a modem [PCMCIA, or battery-powered external on the serial port] or, with some new phones, using the built-in modem via infrared or cable) and an ISP. I think the extremely spiffy Ricochet service, which allowed completely wireless PPP access in certain cities and airports, has been discontinued ... and all other wireless PCMCIA cards, like the 3Com Allpoints card, no longer support the 200LX.

I thought I'd share my experiences with you, too. It is possible. Although the 95LX is totally missing any handshaking lines, i was able to connect my 95LX to a terminal server in my university, which should mean that it is also possible to connect (with the appropriate software, which I don't have) to an ISP using PPP. I assume any DOS TCP stack could be used, maybe LXTCP. I don't know about WWW/LX, but at least the graphical frontends like HV and Post/LX won't work on a 95LX. I only tested with the built-in communications program and my Siemens S35i phone. When I used my self-made data cable for the Siemens phone (with 200LX-to-95LX-adapter, which is part of the 95LX connectivity pack, as far as I know). it worked without any problem, the "Protocol" setting wsa not important, it worked with "none" and with "XON/XOFF". The "Hardware" setting worked, too, but since ther is no hardware handshaking available on the 95LX serial port, it couldn't have any effect. When I used the original Siemens data cable together with the HP null modem adapter and the standard 200LX connectivity cable (with 95LX adapter), I HAD to set "Protocol" to "none". XON/XOFF didn't work. These are my results so far. Can anyone commecnt on any TCP stack which works on the 95LX? I don't have the time to make myself familiar with the LXTCP configuration, otherwise I would do it.

Call me silly. Maybe it's so. Maybe not. I bought the A/C adapter years ago. I tried it out to be sure it worked and have never used it again. But it's there if I ever need it. In the last 15 or 20 years with a lot of really high quality electronics going bad long before they should have, I got in the habit of buying as much battery operated stuff as possible and using rechargable batteries. And also not plugging any of it into house current. That's more than doubled the life of these things overall. An example: I had a Sony discman that was replaced 3 times during it's warranty period. One of the times i went out I was at the computer (this was in the days before my computer had a cd player) and saw a line flash across the screen and at the same time heard a bit of static on the speakers plugged into the discman. Then the music stopped. That happened a couple of other times with other devices as well. So I stopped plugging things in. I still have the next replacement Discman and it works fine and has been for about 15 years now. I no longer live at the same place. I'm out in the country now, retired. But I still see those little lines across the screen occasionally and now that I have speakers on the computer I usually hear a little crackle with it. Yep. I don't use the AC adapter. Nowadays I just replace an occasional battery charger. Oh yeah. The alpha indicator quit working on my HP48sx about a year ago. Probably because it was too near the light switch. :) Barry ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 7 Jan 2002 13:18:21 -0330 Reply-To: Tom Rowsell Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Tom Rowsell Subject: Where is Goin' Postal MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi all: Can someone point me to a "working" link to download the Freeware version of Goin' Postal ?

Do you really think the failure is in the emulation? Have you checked all paths to be correct? In poxt.cfg there is probably a global "Dir" entry, which can be overridden for each box by an own "Dir" entry in each mailbox section. So check if there is a global Dir, then check if there is a Dir in the [mail] section, then check if the Dis entry which is relevant really points to the directory where mail.i and mail.o are located. I don't know how these emulators handle the filesystem, so I don'"t know if there is some mapping of drive letters and paths. But probably the emulator sees a subdirectory of your real hard drive as its own C: drive root directory... ? Only a shot in the dark.

Any suggestions? What happens if you go into HV, enter the authentication data, leave HV and switch to Post/LX? Can you then use Post/LX? If this works, maybe a robot script can do the authentication for you (from the PreOnline feature of Post/LX or with a keyboard macro which envokes a Batch file. In the main screen of Post/LX, the F8 key is not used. I have created a macro for the F8 key which sends / receives SMS. I don'T know how that authentication works, but if HV displays a box, there is probably sime HTML data coming to you, which should be possible to be processed by Robot.exe. Tony, any ideas?? You should be able to see what's coming to you (i.e. to what robot had to react in order to send authentication data), by editing www.cfg the following way: 1. Go to the MochaPPP setup 2. put a ";" in fromt of the "Script" entry 3. create a new entry "Script=terminal 4. create a new Script: [terminal] ?= e=done Then quit / save www.cfg and run www with the MochaPPP setup. You should see in that terminal mode what data comes from the proxy, maybe you are even able to provide the authentication data manually. If so, robot/lx can easily handle that. If not, I don't know... ;-) GTX daniel -- http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/contact ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 8 Jan 2002 08:45:09 +0200 Reply-To: Daniel Hertrich Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Daniel Hertrich Subject: Re: switch off the palmtop while charging MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi Werner On Mon, 7 Jan 2002 22:11:41 +0100, "Dr. Werner Furlan" wrote: > I have two HP200, one in daily use, the other one for backup.

If it shall be really cheap: You should be able to get a used mobile phone off ebay cheaply. Which model is appropriate for you depends on where you are exactly and shat networks are available there. Be sure to get a phone with internal modem and IrDA (so you don't need to buy an expensive data able). And be sure it si no Siemens phone, because these have low-power IrDA interfaces, which cause problems. Maybe an early Nokia model with IrDA interface. The 8810... I don't know which one is the cheapest now. I cannot recommend more than the hardware you can use, since I don't know anything about your local network providers and their fees etc. Maybe you get even cheaper a phone with PCMCIA card as the interface to a PC. Be sure the PCMCIA card can be used as a standard modem (i.e. COM2 in the palmtop, and it must understand the Hayes AT commands). I cannot guarantee that it works, since there is still the power issue with PCMCIA cards, but these phone interface cards shouldn't draw too much power, I think. WWW/LX options are in the latter case just as you would connect via PCMCIA modem card. In the first case (IrDA), www.cfg has to use the following settings: [IrDA] Port=-1 OmniGo=0 Modem=0 PPP=1 Baud=38400 My_IP=0.0.0.0 DNS_IP=0.0.0.0 DNS2_IP=0.0.0.0 Script=CHAP_Script ModemInit=AT&F Dial=ATDT0123456789 Login=xxxxxx Password=xxxxxx You can tweak the setup a bit to use HSCSD if available on the IrDA phone by using another init string.

I opened the 95LX (the first thing I do when I get a new palmtop! ;-) ) and found that there are two different memory chips, and the second looks like it has been soldered manually onto the board. Did HP upgrade manually, or did they use "real" 1MB 95LX boards for that exchange program? If not, mine probably has been upgraded by a athird party. But it works.

I am sure there is some mistake with that mailbox definition in post.cfg. I think the section must be called [mail] ultimately. PocketDOS support is willing to look into why POST.EXE does not load together with WWW.EXE I'll post it here as soon as there is progress.

I think the only way to run 123 from DOS would be to buy/install a standalone copy of 123, rather than using the version built into ROM. The latter appears to be tied in to SysMgr (which isn't surprising given that the Lotus team cobbled together most of the LX software).

Oh yes, of course. That would be the simplest solution. I wonder if there is anything which CANNOT be done with WWW/LX! BTW: If anyone is interested: I have totally reworked my WWW/LX setup, so that www.cfg only holds very few basic setups representing the biggest differences ([IrDA], [PPPD], [Modem1], [Modem2] and [Ether]), and everything else, i.e. choice of the ISP (=modification of dial string and login / password) etc. is done outside by a batch fiile called by Post/LX's "PreOnlone" feature. Setcom.bat recognizes where any communication device is connected, it even distinguishes between a direct serial/IrDA line to another computer and a modem, which Tony helped me with providing an appropriate robot script, And depending on what's connected it decides if it lets me choose an ISP (for a modem connection) or not (in case I have connected the palmtop to another Linux computer running PPPD and NAT, or if I have my mobile phone connected via IrDA to the palmtop, which needs one certain ISP). I have even added a mechanisms that it asks me in certain circumstances (only when it is useful) _before_ the connection is established, if I wish that the connection is terminated automatically after the online run or not (using the PostOnl feature of Post/LX). If anyone wishes to see details, I'll gladly mail the essentials of my setup. It saves several 100 bytes or even kBytes of RAM, because www.cfg is smaller, and it makes everything easier and more convenient, at least for me.

I dug back into some older e-mail (June, 1993) for this item on the power: The following information came from the CompuServe HP Handhelds forum: The HP 95LX consumes about 30 ma from the batteries when it is in light sleep mode (waiting for a keypress) and the serial port off. The serial port draws about another 10ma when turned on. When the 95 is computing, it draws up to maybe 135 ma from the batteries. There can be short current draw spikes as high as 400 ma when reading or writing the RAM card disk. The 95LX has its own internal voltage regulator. The AC adapter can be either AC or DC from 7.8 to 12 volts. Current capacity would be 175 ma for DC and 350 ma for AC. Polarity at the power jack does not matter. The HP adapter puts out AC.

HP200 one is a 64 MB DS two is a 8 MB DS I see two possibilities here ... either the backup palmtop is not actually charging for some reason, or the backup palmtop is running the (slightly outdated) version of the T2T speed driver that allowed shutting off during charging by simply pressing the ON key. The latest version of the driver has changed this to avoid accidental shutoffs, and now requires that you press Fn-ON in order to turn the palmtop off. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 8 Jan 2002 23:06:07 -0000 Reply-To: Chris Randle Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Chris Randle Subject: OT: Help with Outlook MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I've switched from using Post/LX to Outlook 2002. =20 Does anybody know how to configure the program so that it doesn't top post by default when replying to mail?

Apparently it was to late. The pressure on the glue was too much and yesterday the metal plate and the palmtop went their separate ways. Today the upper half of the right hing totally broke off and the spring is doing its hardest to destrooy the lower half. The only possible solution to save this screen is to make a new hinge out of metal like in the famous picture of Greg's palmtop mentioned here a few days ago. Unfortunately I no longer have access to the machinery that I would need in order to do this repair. I just now removed the spring from the hinge so that it would not break further.

[MACRO] #4200=#011b#011b#4700#3920#c800#2d78#2d78#1f73#3920 That is: F8 = Esc Esc Home Space Menu X X S Space The Esc Esc makes sure you get back to the top screen of Post/LX (this one which lists all available mailboxes and folders). Necessary Preconditions: 1. SMS mailbox is the first in the Post/LX mailbox / folder list (you could avoid that by assigning it a hotkey (by naming it e.g. "&SMS", so S is the hotkey, and replace the "Home" in the macro by "S") 2. The SMS box is not activated (no arrows in front of it). The macro will do that. 3. You have an "external" entry with Hotkey "S" for invoking the whole SMS send / receive mechanism. This looks like that in my setup: [EXTERNAL] &SMS=robosms.bat and robosms.bat looks like this: ----- @echo off wwwset "IrDA" robot pdu ----- "IrDA" is the www,cfg setu which enables the IrDA port.

The unit does not switch off itself when charging, but I can do it when I press OFF.

Very useful when I have to change a Pcmcia Card and I am charging. But the 8MB unit can be switched off without Fn. I Just press off, and it switches off.

I have keyboard drivers from two different sources. One is ntkey21x which came with the keyboard and the other is ntkb from Mack. I happen to have ntkb loaded but the other works equally well - they use different key combinations to turn them on and off and Mack's has a smaller memory footprint. Both of them use the same key combinations to access all of the HP special keys - no need to move back and forward between keyboards (although you can).

It has what seems to be a PS2 plug. Comes with a nice black travel bag. Also available a cable with a Palmtop plug on one side only 6ft. (1.82m.), quite suitable for the surgery. Also, a cable approx 28 inches (71cm.) with an HP plug on both ends. You can cut it and make a shorter cable for the Newton keyboard, or use it to connect two 200LX Palmtops for file transfers etc. The keyboard is $50.00 or best offer (the seller has a minimum price in mind!) Cables are $15.00. Keyboard plus cable - $60.00. You will have to do the connections for the keyboard yourself. on your own. I believeI saw it once and it was very simple. I believe there is a description of that "surgery" somewhere among the HP 200LX resources. Shipping: USPS Priority Mail plus insurance within the USA or Express Mail (more expensive, but much much faster.) Outside the USA is by Express Mail only, sorry. All this mechandise is BRAND NEW and unused. All sales are FINAL. I have 22 dual terminated cables, and 4 half-terminated cables. 1 keyboard. Payment by Postal Money orders, personal checks (which must cland they wear the bank before shipping) or PayPal. At this time I will not be able to take credit cards, sorry, possibly later in the future. Please write to me in person at sponsor@ftel.net.

That makes GPRS data transfers in quantities of a few emails comparable to GSM. I pay abt. 0.075 Euro per minute for a GSM data connection. Transfer of 2 emails with 2.5kB each may take about 1 minute, so I pay 0.075 Euro for GSM. When I transfer the same email per GPRS, I pay 2 * 2.5 * 0.025 = 0.13 Euro. That's still more than GSM, but before one had to pay the full fee for the first 10 kB, which was about 0.3 Euro! Even more interesting is to surf the Internet (with HV, for example) cia GPRS, since you don't pay for all the time you need to read the pages.

It was a bloat. Firstly, it takes quite a bit of drive space even pared down. I was able to get the CGA version working, but it was so clumbsy that I pitched it. AFAIK, it does frames, though. I even started by getting the latest version and paring it down for the palmtop again. It did not seem like the effort was worthwhile, so I stopped. I do hope that they get a reasonable version for the palmtop, but I will not get too excited. From what I can tell, Arachne was developed with the 386+ in mind. What I would like to see is an open source front to HV. The lxtcp suite could be used to develop a 'shim' to hand pages to HV as WWW does currently. It probably would not be as tight as wwwlx (the lxtcp suite is not all that tight), but it would work with the current standard, but I would like to see something. From browsing about, it seems that the only viable graphic browser for an XT class machine is WWWlx run unedr PALrun. I also insta lled Doslynx again. I may put it back on so that I can browse a bit, but it is so infuriatingly old and is not even remotely graphic. $0.02 Keith Thanks for all the other information you keep posting.

I Have had to glue the std hinge crack (Top RH edge of the case near the RH hinge) once, however, most of the problems I have had have been due to the plastic case around the hinge itself. I've had the hinge start to push out of the plastic retainer, pushing the whole screen sideways ~1-2 mm. The only fix I could come up with for this was to bond the hinge cap over the hinge and clamp the screen in the correct position (hinge to hinge) using an adjustable woodworking clamp (similar to a "C"clamp). Using Krazy glue it held for several years. The latest problem I had was the front (toward the keyboard) 1/2 of the RH hinge actually breaking loose from the screen cover portion of the screen side of the case. Symptom was that when opening the clamshell the RH hinge cap started rotating well AFTER the clamshell had started being opened (too much flex in the hinge). Removing the cap and gluing along the top edge of the hinge, where it attaches to the screen side of the case, then leaving the case propped open to apply pleasure (as if closing the case) has cured it. Has held for several months and based on prev experience, should hold for years. The only caveat, the cases I have the most experience with are the 100lx cases.

This is a standard type of SQL command but your use of the term `translate' confuses me and I apologise if I misunderstand what you are trying to say. As I mentioned before SQL is a language not a database format. > this can be used to insert or sync contacts in an existing postgresql > or mysql database. Yes I understand how the commands are used - personally I use Postgresql but I am biased as I have a colleague that wrote much of the Postgresql documentation. > everything is possible if you know the pbk file structure Provided you have a driver for the database binary format. It is not clear if you understand what I am about to say or not and so forgive me if I have misunderstood you! The SQL commands (such as insert) act on a database where the field fomats are defined at high level in terms of field names and field types. The database engine converts this into a binary format when it reads/writes into the database. Because different databases use different binary structures a driver is required for each dataformat that you wish to read. For example, if you have the same data stored in the same high level data structure (ie same field names and same type for each field) but with two different binary structures (e.g. native Postgresql and native Mysql formats) the files will be different. To read/write the pbk format of the HP the database engine must know how to translate the high level data structure into the low level binary foramt - this requires the driver to be written. The part I am not clear on is if you understand that knowing the high level format (in terms of field names and field types) is insufficient to achieve what you want to do. You also need the driver to read/write the pbk binary format - this could be done using an intermediate third party program to translate the pbk into (for example) a csv formatted file which could be read by the database engine or a driver that permits the binary file format of the pbk to be read directly by the Postgresql or Mysql engine. This later case (driver) would be much appreciated by me and probably others on the list. Unfortunately given your later comments I do not think this was your intent (see below). > > Whatever you mean please note that the HP database layout and > > fields can be edited by the user - this includes the phone book > > layout and many of us have severly modified phone book structures - > > the 95 lx phone book has not customizable fields and layout > i thought 100-200 format was different but not that much, > so forget about my request. I'll do it only for my poor 95lx If a binary file format reader is developed then it would be able to extract the actual format on a database by database case and the sync could still be performed. An intermediate step of getting the user to match database fields across the two databases (for syncing purposes) could be performed the first time and then stored in a configuration file for future use. The HP database format is documented in the developer's guide so someone could, in principle, do this - an open source hook into the HP database format from Postgresql or Mysql sounds like a nice project for someone with more time and skill than I have although i and probably others would be most willing to use the resultant driver!

Comments: To: Andrew King Andrew, I looked at this problem a few months ago and settled on EarthlinkDSL. If you read their newsgroups, there seem to be a number of problems, but my service is fine. DSL really depends on the infrastructure. In our area, it is provided by Covad and they do a great job. I have only had to cycle my DSL modem once in 3 months and get 1.1+ DL and 384UL. As advertised. You can go with other DSL suppliers, but Elink has the best price at 49.95/mo and included is nationwide dialup. Even ATT requires an additional 21.95/mo to add dialup to the service! Might as well sign up twice. ELink does this in case the DSL goes down, but it is a big help when travelling. Look in your local area to see if there is a better deal, but Elink seems to be the best value. If you are somewhat technically savvy, you will probably not have any problems as I have not had any problems. Make sure that whatever service you get for DSL uses PPPoE protocol and not some HTTP login procedure as they have in Cincinnati. Wit h PPPoE, you can get a DSL/router which is a DHCP server and can allow connection from more than one computer. I connect through a router here at work and home to collect email on my LX with an Accton card. It is great.

While SQL does mean Structured Query Language, every implementation that I'm aware of inlcudes a database that you can lay out and fill up. C++ is a programming language but both Borland and MSVC include database structures. There's a SQL that works on the 200lx on Super called pbase.

Otherwise it interprets the year as 19xx instead of 20xx. So change it to 11/01'02 and it should work fine. Why they chose to do it this quirky way is beyond me, but at least it works.

I have a modem connected to COM port 1 (external com port) I have tried to use both CCMail and Goin' Postal....but niether one can find the modem. The modem is a basic 9-pin serial modem (Megahertz) and it ends in a female plug. I used my HP serial cable and then used a 9 pin male-to-male connector to connect the HP cable to the modem.

You need a nul modem connecter that reverses some of the serial connections. The LX cable is meant to connect to a pc. Since a pc is usually connected to a modem you can see how the lx looks like a 'modem' to the pc using that cable. To hook the Lx cable to a modem instead of a pc some of the pins have to be swapped; this is what a nul modem connector does. Cheers...

Another problem could be that your serial port is not enabled or not switched to "wired", but to "IR". I don't know if CCMail and Goin Postal handle the serial port settings automatically. To be sure, load Stefan's LXPRO and bring up the LXPRO window right before you want to go online and directly after the attempt. If the settings differ between before and after the attempt, the program seems to handle that. If not, and if they are not appropriate for your setup, you can use LXPRO to adjust them. Once you figured that out, it may be the most convenitent way to use Stefan's "SETCOM1" to let the serial port settings be adjusted automatically from a batch file.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Actually, Now that I think about it, that makes complete sense. A null modem is used to allow two computers to talk to each other via a serial cable by connecting the send to the recieve and vice versa (instead of a straight connection, which would incorrectly connect send to send and receive to recieve). Therefore the HP Connectivity cable must already have a built-in null modem so to actually use a modem the built-in null-modem would have to be cancellled out by another external null modem.

So if an adapter doesn't work, probably not all necessary pins are connected by wires. That would be a very poor design, because it would prpevent _every_ computer to be compatible with that one.

The usual way to specify ports is AFAIK to write into the mail server field something like POP server: pop.myisp.com:[portnumber] SMTP server: mail.myisp.com:[portnumber] (where [portnumber] has to be replaced by the actual port number. But I have no idea if Goin Postal supports that.

Well, maybe a very dumb idea, but: Do you maybe cover the IR port with your hand when typing an URL? ;-) If that is not the reason, try to place the phone far away from the LX. The Nokias can be placed about 50-70cm from the LX without losing the connection. If you place it too near to the LX, it can cause strong EMI (electromagnetic interference) and thus it can terminate your connection.

Anyone have an opinion or suggestion they If the BIOS lets you choose "IrDA", you can use the port for internet connection sharing if ou run WWW/LX on the palmtop. If the BIOS lets you shoose "SIR" or HPSIR", you can also use that connection for file transfers with Transfile Win200, X-Finder or so.

Light sleep mode is a mode which the palmtop goes into when no key is pressed for a certain amount of time (a few milliseconds, I think). You can notice that sometimes if you run a CPU-intensive program and it seems to be very slow: You can sometimes speed it up by pressing the CTRL- or Shift key and holding it pressed. I don't know an example at the moment. However, some programs seem to prevent the palmtop to enter light sleep mode while they do DPU-intensive work, because you can't speed them up that way. Anyone knows more details? Would be interesting for me, too!

I am confused because: 1) It doesn't work. 2) The pin configuration doesn't match anything on your site: (http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/rs232/index.shtml#200lxnm) It has: Female 9pin To Male 9pin ------------------------------------- 1 to 4 2 to 3 3 to 2 4 to (6 and 1) 5 to 5 6 to 4 7 to 8 8 to 7 9 not used This confuses me because it looks *almost* like a FULL null modem connector, but pin 1 is connected to pin 4, instead of pin 1 to pin 1. And pin 4 should just connect to 6 instead on 1 and 6. I also have a 25 pin null modem (by Radio shack), but I don't know the pin configuration. I read the site description, but I am not much of a hardware person, so I don't know how big of a deal this is, any info would be appreciated.

It is one thing to run Arachne on the LX but to have a version written specifically for the CGA screen would be great. Every version I've run so far has had problems rendering on the screen.

I only have Sandisk so I don't know if this applies to other cards. I've been using them for a while, mostly in the palmtop, sometimes in my Kodak camera and sometimes in my Thinkpad. Also in the reader on my desktop. Never had a problem. A long time ago, probably 3 or 4 years ago, I plugged one into my old 486 Compaq Contura Aero laptop. Again, no problem. But recently I've begun occasionally swapping files between the Aero and the palmtop. As long as I use the card in the Aero, no problem. But the Aero can't read the card from the Palmtop. I played with this a while and I realized that if I use the Thinkpad to reformat the card then everything including the Aero can read it. Problem goes away. But I have a bunch of cards with a bunch of stuff on them. So it's a minor pain. My question is: why? As far as I can recall I never reformatted the card that I put in the Aero. But I might have forgotten that I did. Actually I don't remember every having formatted a card before in any computer. These are mostly the same model card. The one that was in the Aero all that time and working with it was bought at the same time and place as 3 of the other cards, as I remember it. But this seems to be true with both older and newer cards, as well. I suspect I'll have them all formatted ok before long so I'm not looking for a solution. Just a reason. Any ideas? By the way, for those looking for an "almost" palmtop replacement, for some purposes the Aero is kind of nice. Now that I'm retired and mostly sitting around the house and size is less a factor I'm starting to use it to do the programming I used to do on the palmtop. It weighs 3.5 pounds. They can be had on Ebay for $50 if you work at it. The screen is backlit and easily readable. It's 640x480 mono. I also have a color one. The mono runs about 7 to 8 hours on a charge and the color one about 5 to 6 hours. That's with the enhanced (3500 mah) batttery. The manual says it should run a week in standby mode (with the normal battery, I think) so it's pretty much instant on. Not as fast as the palmtop but almost. It also has hybernation but that's slower. It's about the same physical size as those small Sony laptops. Maybe a little smaller but a little thicker.

Roboweb is a product that automatically gets web pages. It is at www.dasoft.com You could try c:\www\www.exe -d "!a:\hv\hv.exe" (adjust the paths to suit your palmtop) This won't dial till you open a web page from HV.

Would be interesting for me, too! I remember that I wrote something a long time ago that was pretty slow until I turned off light sleep mode in the program. I don't remember what it was now. I think it involved stream I/O from a file but I'm not sure. Maybe it was re-directed or something. Anyway it took forever so the program turned off light sleep mode while that was happening and it made a big difference.

Problem goes away. Problem solved. It was user error. I hate that! The flash card is D: on the Aero and I: on the PC and either D: or E: on the Thinkpad, depending on which Thinkpad I used. So there was never a problem remembering to type D:. But when I moved the card from the palmtop to the Aero I typed A: on the Aero without realizing it. The floppy wasn't attached to the Aero so there was no A: and I got a bad disk error, or some such.

I'd be nervous about silicone, it's very hard to clean off. If you use a petroleum based lubricant and the hinge becomes too loose you can use a solvent to remove some of the lubricant and stiffen the hinge. Silicone oil is much harder to remove, if your hinge ended up too loose you might not be able to adjust the stiffness. -- Andrew King Ann Arbor Michigan technology is the answer, what was the question?

I use these commands to run foxpro: mono8025 mode mono foxpro mode co80 Installation and use is pretty straightforward. It can run a lot faster if you can use extended memory. You would need a driver like the one offered by Thaddeus with their memory upgrades. I've also used FoxBase+ and it fits very nicely on the palmtop. It loads fast and runs well and does not need the huge overlay file that Foxpro uses. It also has a ot less features but is still a damn good relational DB.

I've used silicon and found standard rubbing alcohol cleaned it off pretty well. A person just has to remember that with a silicon lubricant to use very little since it is much more premeatable than oil. Just use a pin prick.

It is inert to over 3000 F which is always helpful.Sometimes it is called "white graphite". Works great as a Cub Scout pinewood derby axle lubricant, too. I've used it on sticky hinges on my palmtop with great success (I think. I have never had a hinge crack, but that doesn't prove they would have happened). Not as easily available as graphite, but it can be found.

The modem is faster than a 14.4 k modem 8-) However the system consisting of server, tel lines, modems and palmtop is not that much faster than when you operate a 14.4 k in your palmtop. It draws a lot more power than my Thinfax or Megahertz. Init string is plain simple AT&F.

Oop, I meant to summarise some new features:: By default the script now totally cleans out the phone, and also puts sent/unsent stored messages in the POST/LX outbox. But these behaviours are configurable. SMS are downloaded in ascending sequence rather than descending. Supports Sagem 850/750 (required MEBase=900 in [SMS]). The default setup is absolutely minimal.

Couldn't th IrDA timeout in www.exe be increased, or maybe something could be implemented directly into www.exe which keeps IrDA alive until dis.com is really executed?

The DCD line (PIN 1) is needed for some pieces of software, and since it is connected to Pin 4 there could be the problem. Please compare once more with the schematics on my site, I don't have them ready at the moment, so cannot say for sure, but I think there is a difference regarding Pin 1. And, what should work, also with that difference (no proper DCD signal) is communication with the modem via DataComm. Did you try that? If nothing works, the problem may be another one. Did you try different port speeds? Maybe your modem doesn't support all port speeds. Well, that's all I can think of at the moment.

Any problems with >init strings? I purchased that modem due to it's low power requirements, but I haven't actually used it in my HP200LX. I've been using it in my laptop for quite while to access my Juno email though. (Juno's old Win 3.0 based access software no longer works, but it would have run far too slowly on a DS HP200LX to be practical, anyway. Nettamer hasn't been able to get me past the Juno webmail user name and password input screen, either.) It's the only 56k modem I've got, so I can't compare it against any other 56k modem, but as of yesterday there has been a problem with the phone lines in my area that has kept my other internal 33.6 US Robotics Courior and Sportster modems from being able to connect, at all. That 56k card modem that I got from Thaddeus is consistently connecting at around 18-22k, thus at least keeping me in daily HPLX-L digests right now. :-) So, my limited experience with that modem has been very satisfying.

That format is read by all the spreadsheets I've used and also a lot of databases. I think it was originally developed as a way to pass data between Lotus and dBase. I think they came up with that jointly. It had a name back then but I can't remember what it was. I'm sure you can find spreadsheets that can't read it. But they'll probably be obscure or older than Lotus.

I have no idea which format the other device needs, but GDBIO should be the way to go. For further processing (if necessary) take a look at http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/pdb2x I have several programs there which process the GDBIO output of the phone book for other purposes like for PIM/PE and Post/LX. The C sources are included, so if you are a programmer you might have a look into on of these programs. Maybe it's useful for the conversion you need.

I own two of these converters, on is the Greenwich cable which is also sold by Thaddeus, the other one is bought here in Germany at Segor Electronics. Costed about 50 Euro and is much more flexible than the Greenwich cable, because it allows setting of serial data rate and protocol / flow control via DIP switches. The Greenwich cable is hard-wired to 9600 baud and XON/XOFF flow control. If it helps: The greenwich cable is based on a chip labled PIC16C54A -04/SO 9649SCW and it contains a 7.3728 MHz quartz. All other parts are resistors and capacitors. The other device which I own (you can see it on http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/rs232 somewhere under "serial-parallel converter") contains several active components: 1. A pretty large Motorola chip labeled LSC423166?? (<- the ?? is unreadable) ICE96SXP 1F15BQQET9723 one 3.6864 MHz quartz, 4 Philips chips (pretty small, can give you details if you really need them) and a few transistors. It looks quite complicated. It is a noname product, made in Taiwan, labeled CVTSP2 (although I don't think it help you).

There are single chip IC's that do most of the work, but I don't know much about them or how much they cost. A Google search should turn up some circuit diagrams. You can purchase a number of different brands; I got two off eBay a few years ago for $5 each, but that is a very lucky price. Be aware of how the converter is powered. Some draw power off the parallel port, some off the serial port (bad for your LX's battery life), and some have a separate power supply. The units I have need power off the parallel port, but my printer didn't supply +5V, so I wired in a separate power supply, which used line (mains) current. This was OK for my application, since the printer (an Okidata) was not going to be moved and the "portable" computer it was connected to was a 20 pound Otrona Attache.

The Trans Digital parallel port PC card works great. It works with printers and parallel port Zip drives as well as connecting to PC's with a parallel port LapLink cable. Before cheap PC memory cards, it was the best way to back up my 32 Meg 200lx. It is more expensive of course than the Greenwich cable, but it works perfectly for everything I've tossed at it. bob ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2002 01:29:56 +0100 Reply-To: Jacques Belin Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Jacques Belin Subject: Re: OT: Jornada 720 Serial Number In-Reply-To: <3C44A848.45ABC616@union-tel.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-2" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Le Tue, 15 Jan 2002 15:08:08 -0700 "Robert K.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hello! The other day I noticed a Jornada 720 for sale at a used computer store. Thanks to this list I was able to determine it was manufactured in the middle of last year. It seemed to have all it's parts so I parted with a very small stack of c-notes and drove home with my new toy. I played around with the built in apps and was not overly impressed, then downloaded the demo version of PocketDOS. Now I'm impressed. I realize this thing has limitations, mainly battery life, but all in all it's very cool. The colors and backlighting are fantastic. The keyboard is very good. So far PocketDOS has run everything I've tried, including my editor, Kedit, Automap for DOS, Collins Dictionary, MSD, Checkit, and others. For fun I inserted my 32mb Sandisk card that I use to back up my LX and everything was there! I have to put it down and go to work, but I'm looking forward to more play time later today. I'll be especially interested to see if my network drivers load. I use LBL, which allows me to mix serial port connections with ethernet, arcnet and modem connections. This is how I network my LX to my home/office lan. Unfortunately, I've managed to fill the hard drive already, so I'm thinking of removing some of the built in Pocket Apps, which I'm sure are typical Microsoft Bloatware. I would welcome comments from anyone who has tried this. I would also welcome general comments about the 720, especially any compatibility issues, from other 720/PcketDOS users. DOS is dead, long live DOS!

I guess it depends on your needs. You get a lot of value for very little storage requirements from foxbase. It may be the best relational database you can fit on the LX in under 1MB. Foxpro has a whole lot of extra stuff in it and these days storage ain't as expensive as it used to be ($50=220MB sheesh!). I have a full implementation of the developer version 2.6 and it weighs in at 13.6 MB! This includes help files, report generator, screen generator , compiler-linker and a few megs of my own junk. > Its sooo small and can run even on a network .. with > multiuser options too .. and would be much faster on > the lx than foxpro .. correct me guys if i am mistaken .. I think you are mistaken if you mean overall program execution and database functions like indexing and searches. It does take longer to load though as it has a large overlay file. > > i also know of another public domain and free to use > program called foxprun.exe which is the runtime version > of fox base .. with a small trick that is very simple (almost > silly) it can be used to work like fox base full program ! That's interesting. It's funny how developers used to think that people wouldn't find this stuff out. BTW: My statements apply to my implementation of Foxpro/base used on a 2x LX with expanded memory (which foxpro will use nicely). YMMV ABTW: Foxpro/base is not comparable to the database on the LX. The interactive features are pretty poor. If you have no intention of learning how to program in the Xbase language, then I would consider it a bad choice as a database. You may be better off with something like QAPlus or DataPerfect. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2002 21:39:17 -0000 Reply-To: "Richard E.

It has what seems to be a PS2 plug. Comes with a nice black travel bag. Also available a cable with a Palmtop plug on one side only 6ft. (1.82m.), quite suitable for the surgery. Also, a cable approx 28 inches (71cm.) with an HP plug on both ends. You can cut it and make a shorter cable for the Newton keyboard, or use it to connect two 200LX Palmtops for file transfers etc. The keyboard is $50.00 or best offer (the seller has a minimum price in mind!) Cables are $15.00. Keyboard plus cable - $60.00. You will have to do the connections for the keyboard yourself. on your own. I believeI saw it once and it was very simple. I believe there is a description of that "surgery" somewhere among the HP 200LX resources. Shipping: USPS Priority Mail plus insurance within the USA or Express Mail (more expensive, but much much faster.) Outside the USA is by Express Mail only, sorry. All this mechandise is BRAND NEW and unused. All sales are FINAL. I have 22 dual terminated cables, and 4 half-terminated cables. 1 keyboard. Payment by Postal Money orders, personal checks (which must cland they wear the bank before shipping) or PayPal. At this time I will not be able to take credit cards, sorry, possibly later in the future. Please write to me in person at hplxmail@yahoo.com.

I'm surprised because either the Thaddeus catalog or Web site says this is the lowest power modem they have seen (or perhaps tested.)

I decided to see what has been going on in the HPLX world and read through the 11/01 and 12/01 logs from HPLX-L. I thought it would help everyone involved if I just gave a status of palmtop.net in general and the SUPER Site in particular: Please post the following to HPLX-L: Dear Palmtop Friends, It's been a long time now since I have been able to commune with you on a daily basis, but believe me you're still in my heart. I know that there are questions as to the status of palmtop.net and the SUPER Site so let me clear a few things up. As you have all correctly assumed, I am not involved with the day to day operation of the site. I still pay the fees for the domain name, but have turned the hosting and maintenance over to David at HPLX.NET (also where palmtop.net is hosted). My life has changed very drastically since my active HPLX days, and the biggest changes are a new job and a daughter. I know David has his own issues so frequency of updates have suffered. Bottom line is: palmtop.net is not going away and I will maintain the site as long as I have a host for the files. True, it has become a bit of a "snapshot in time", but I think the hard work I did for the years that I did it has created something that is useful even in a static form. I'm sure that David could be talked into handing over the updating chores to someone else if he found the right (read that dedicated) person. It's very simple to update the site thanks to some very talented perl work (you guys know who you are). So, I just really wanted to say hi, let you know that I still care, and to let you know that it's good to see the stalwarts still out there in HPLX World.

However, someone mentioned Web Copier as another Avantgo-like alternative. I downloaded it and it seems to be really slick. Unfortunately, when I transfer the files to my palmtop, HV chokes. I imagine that the problem is with the very long filenames that HTML documents often have. How do you Web Copier users get around the dos 8+3 filename limitation with files like MYHOMEPAGE.HTM?

It'd probably be a wrong presumption. Most of the early compression discussions went away with the advent of cheaper flash cards. When you could find a 220mb flash card on ebay for $50: http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1323614702 there's hardly any incentive to add a layer of software (ie, Stacker) to impede performance and increase risk.

I've tried several versions of Turbo Debug (with and without patches), Codeview, the debugger that ships with Power C, the IDE for Pacific C which has a debugger, the debugger that shipped with the registered version of PCC, Watcom, and also a couple of commercial debuggers that didn't come with compilers. I tried several freeware and shareware debuggers. So far the closest thing I've found to a compatible source level debugger is Symdeb that used to ship with MS C 4.0 and Masm 4.0. And it's fairly primitive compared to the others. I realize most people don't use debuggers in their every day life. They're a terrible PIM tool. :) But when discussing compatibility it's significant that a whole class of software won't run on the 200lx that will run on any normal XT or AT.

This is funny - you are not the first one who suggested that I should be the new maintainer of palmtop.net. Unfortunately, I don't feel able to do this job. Although I would like to. Time and money are the problem, as always. Time, because I guess maintaining palmtop.net is very time consuming. Although Mitch said that it is made quite easy with sophisticated perl scripts. There is still enough to do, at least keep the server running all the time, which leads to the next problem: money. I could not use my main computer for palmtop.net, because I often reboot it due to Linux kernel hacking for my studies. So a seperate machine had to be palmtop.net, and besides the money I had to spend for a second machine, my wife would probably kill me if I would store another computer in my room ;-) and especially if it makes noise all day and night long. In addition I would need a permanent Internet connection at home, which costs quite a lot. An alternative would be to store all the files at an ISP. But this would be really expensive. I don't know how much disk space palmtop.ne needs, but I guess it's several hundered megabytes. Okay. I'll contact Mitch ans ask for details. But please don't expect that I'll take over palmtop.net. It owuld be a great honour for me, of course, but I probably cannot afford the time and money.

I have tried 3 DOS programs, but one didn't work and the 2 others worked- but kind of not so easy to read the data since it was just numbers and graphs without details. I would like to have a tide calculation program which can quickly show me the the low & high tides in a graphic display where the depth and the time (hourly) is displayed. Any such program running on 200LX? If not, what's the best available program? And where can I find the mathematical rules & calculations how these tide calculations works- in case I have some spare time and decide to write a 200LX optimized program for this task?

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi All of you using LXSTAT and potential users! LXSTAT- will set whatever you want on your palmtop from a DOS prompt or a batch file! :-) Such as time-out, battery charging, power management, speaker volume, serial port, display modes etc etc.... On the behalf of Rudi, the author of this program (and myself with some very limited involvement)- we are now asking for help to beta test the latest version of LXSTAT. This version should work with ALL HP LX MODELS- HP 95LX, 100LX, 200LX & 700LX. So it would be great if we could get users from all categories to help Rudi to test the program!!! = :-) So I was thinking how to do this... And Rudi asked me to post it on SUPER- but I couldn't get hold on the "up-loader"... So in order to keep track on which machines this beta version is tested on- please ask me for a copy- if you are willing to test LXSTAT! Please send an e-mail DIRECTLY to wallgren@singnet.com.sg ((jorgen@palmtop.net would probably also work...)). BUT DO NOT send your request to the list- please ONLY DIRECTLY TO ME. If you do so, please let me know which palmtop you are going to use when you test LXSTAT. We do not have much of documentation or instructions, but I am sure you can use LXSTAT with the instructions I will send you with the beta program. The program is free, and the only thing we are asking for when we send you the beta copy- is feedback how it works for you. If it works fine, then please inform us and then how you use it? If you have problems, please give us the details. :-) Thanks and Regards, Jorgen ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2002 18:24:55 +0100 Reply-To: "Helmuth E.

Savage \snip\ In response to the current anthrax-in-the-mail scare, the federal government has bought eight such irradiation devices, with an option for 12 more, for the U.S. Postal Service (USPS). At $5 million per device, they are possibly the USPS's most expensive attempt to quiet public fears about bioterrorism. But will the devices actually make the public safer? Or will irradiating our letters, bills, catalogs, mail-order do-dads and holiday presents have unintended health and environmental consequences, either in the long or short term? .. ionizing radiation may alter more than its intended target -- if it's going to try to kill a tough little anthrax spore, it's going to have some effects on everything else it passes through. NIRS, in its request for information from USPS, asked for details on damage to film, computer equipment, magnetic media, scientific research materials and blood. Public Citizen, in its Freedom of Information Act request, added questions of e-beam's effect on pharmaceuticals, eyeglasses and credit cards. For certain, irradiation would make it impossible to ship certain products through the USPS... ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sat, 19 Jan 2002 05:07:46 +0100 Reply-To: Nathalie Bugeaud Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Nathalie Bugeaud Subject: Ultra-minaturized electrical components, and HP at Cal Nanosystems Inst MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Ultra-minaturized electrical components, and HP at Cal Nanosystems Institute Ultra-minaturized electrical components could shrink handhelds. http://www.nature.com/nsu/011115/011115-1.html ...and UCLA and UC Santa Barbara are building a $350-million research institute with marching orders to keep California ahead in the next frontier of technology. That frontier is the sub-visible world of atoms and molecules, in which the California Nanosystems Institute will try to discover how to harness the tiniest of particles to produce a range of incredible new products--such as fingertip-size supercomputers, molecular analyzers that identify diseased genes and thin plastic films with the strength of steel. "Nowhere else will the disciplines of chemistry, physics, biology, computer science and enormous amounts of equipment be brought together," says Philip Kuekes, a computer scientist at Hewlett-Packard, which is backing the Nanosystems Institute with $5 million over the next four years. Hewlett-Packard is not alone. About 20 other companies, including Sun Microsystems Inc., Amgen Inc., Intel Corp., Ericsson and Sequenom Inc., will contribute close to $50 million to the institute, mingling their money with $100 million from the state of California, $110 million from the federal government and about $90 million from private foundations. The promise of nanosystems for the electronics industry is that, as current methods of etching circuitry onto silicon-based semiconductors reach their limits within this decade, "we will be able through chemistry to make molecular semiconductors," says Hewlett-Packard's Kuekes. The circuit capacity will be many times greater than anything possible today.

I suspect most users don't use stacker. My first flash card came with stacker installed and I decided to try it out even though I'd had already tried and rejected it on the desktop. It wasn't bad, just like it wasn't bad on the desktop. But there were tradoffs and after about a year I uninstalled it and made life a little simpler. The first problem is the amount of system ram it uses. It's a pretty big driver. I often didn't have enough ram for things I wanted to run in a Dos shell. That was still true after uninstalling stacker but I could do a lot more than before. The second issue for me is that I never really knew how full my drive was. I set it at 2x compression and that was used to give me numbers on free space but it wasn't even close. I normally don't let a drive get very full but sometimes I want to try something and I will. With stacker I never knew if that was safe or not. Another problem is that I was writing programs on the lx, often in assembly language. That means crashing a lot and sometimes very bad crashes. I never seriously damaged the stacker file but sometimes text files would be corrupted. I'm sure binary files were also corrupted but it was harder to blame that on stacker unless I found out about it right away. This didn't happen enough to be a major problem since I kept a good backup. But sometimes it could be pretty irritating since the backup was at home. But the real lesson came when I counted the number of zipped and lharced files on the card and was curious about how much good stacker was really doing. So, one day I carefully backed up the entire card, stacker and stacked volume and all, then backed up the contents of the stacked volume, carefully deleted everything on the card and copied all my files back to it. Surprise! I had more free space after doing that. I'm not sure how true that is since you can never really be sure how much free space you have on a stacker volume but the numbers said I had quite a lot more free space. Bye, bye stacker. Pkzip does the job better. I've never used a compressed volume on any computer since. By the way, someone commented that stacker isn't safe but I never had any problems except those associated with my programming. And that happens in unstacked volumes too. Just not nearly as much. Over all I felt that it was reliable.

You can use it with ASCII format, but then I think you lose the extended ASCII characters. You might look for a utility that converts Memo to rtf format--I think there's one on SUPER. > 2.

The 200LX has no Y2K problems as far as the built-in software goes, and most of the major DOS programs are also Y2K compatible (i.e., Derive, WP51, Word 5.5, Quicken, Lotus 1-2-3) albeit with some strange tweaks in some cases. > So what's the story?

TIA. Wow. Its been a long time since I've heard any mention of QWK. That brings back fond memories. :-) Its been many years since my BBS days when I used SLMR (Silly Little Mail Reader). At the time, I didn't even know that the HP200LX existed, so I never tried to run it on an HP200LX, but I think it would work for you very nicely. SMLR was freeware, very simple and fast. It was so good that the author wrote a much more sophisticated shareware mail reader based upon SMLR which was very successful. I don't recall the name of that shareware mail reader since I never did find it necessary to upgrade from SMLR. I no longer use QWK packets, so I don't think that I have SMLR any more, but you might be able to find it on the Internet in a DOS program repository somewhere. If you can find it, check it out and let me know if it fits your needs. If your can't find it, let me know and I'll search my dusty archives much deeper for it. Cheers!

I've been using Quicken 8 for DOS on my home DOS desktop but since I'm only using it to balance my personal checkbook I'm thinking of switching to LX Quicken for the convenience of always have it with me. I don't want to waste the disk space by moving Quicken 8 to the LX, there's over 2.5Meg used by the program files. I think I'll give the LX's Quicken a try. Cheers...

Add links to author's home pages so people can look for newer software versions. Please provide URLs! 2. remove redundant entries (I have seen two so far: Emtex by Stephan Luettjohann and Hans Hoenen and I think it was one of the programs by Alan Krempler, but don't remember right now). If you know of more duplicates, please let me know! 3. update old software versions, e.g. all the D&A products, especially add links to the D&A web site here. If you know of newer versions (except D&A software and Stefan Peichl's software for example), please let me know! 4. add new software (Goin Postal Freeware version, a pre-installed version of GEM etc. and everything you will send me. 5. Look for dead links and rmove / update them. If you know one, email me! 6. Add links inside SUPER to related programs, for example link BGfax with 2BGfax, HV with WWW/LX and so on.... Let me know what you think and what should be done! Please send all software and suggestions to super@daniel-hertrich.de This email address will be active in about 2 hours. If you post software, please add the following information: 1. Title under which it should appear on SUPER 2. Category (see category overview of SUPER to see what's possible) 3. Version number 4. Author's full name and email address 5. Description which includes all words someone could use to search for such a program I will post on the list once I have applied any changes to SUPER. It will take some time. Probably one or two weeks.

I'm sure I have SLMR as I used to use it before I went to 1st Reader. Unfortuantely it has a limitation on how long messages it will handle can be, and has problems with Internet mail headers. As many BBSs and BBS networks nowadays are also Internet accessible and these networks often gate their echoes to/from Internet email and private newsservers, it's important that the reader can handle the headers. 1st Reader does that fine, but it's a little slow and takes up about 2mb on my 8mb 200LX so I want to try something a little smaller.

BBSs aren't as numerous as they were 5-15 years ago but there are still MANY. Most now offer telnet access and many also have web interfaces. Lots of them also gate the BBS network (like Fidonet, RIME, Intelec, etc) echoes into their own news servers so that users can participate in the echoes via a standard news reader like Free Agent or Outlook Express.

I realize that these two items require a good deal of work, so perhaps a simple page explaining how users can use grabber and SUBMIT screenshots of thier favorite programs. Same is true for know incompatibilities, people know this information by using the program, if they could just submit it, it would be useful. The only other thing I can think of is if you ever get the time 8-)...to ask authors to release the source code, so that favorites can be enhanced by other users. Most of the software has no real copyright value and I think a good deal of people would release it if simply asked.

I recall hearing something about how most other flash card manufacturers use a diffferent type of memory technology (NAND or something along those lines) to make their flash cards, which allows them to be much faster than Sandisk's cards but causes them to use more battery power. And since in the 200LX the speed of a modern Sandisk card is almost as fast as the RAM drive, the speed of the other cards offers no advantage, unless you use it in devices other than the 200LX as well. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 20 Jan 2002 23:18:31 +0200 Reply-To: Daniel Hertrich Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Daniel Hertrich Subject: POSTPDU MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Tony and Stefan, I am impressed! PostPDU now works so well, that it is a real alternative for emails! This built-in message splitting is great! I can now write and write and write and don'T have to care about the message length. Two minor problems: When splitting, the screen output "message copied" or similar is written twice in the screen and the lower of the two is partially overwritten by "Part x ... ref Nr. xx". And: Do you think it will be possible to split messages at the last _space_ before the 160th character? This would avoid breaking words apart. Thank you so much for this very sophisticated and useful product! I see it once more: Everything is possible!

I haven't kept a paper checkbook in years--since getting comfortable with Pocket Quicken. Unlike some of the other list members, I have tried importing/using a desktop version of Quicken, but found the incremental effort not to be worth the incremental trouble-- 90% of what one needs from a personal finance program is found in Pocket Quicken. Having it with you all the time and therefore being able to update/access realtime information on the fly is FAR more valuable than the frills added in the desktop version. In fact, when my bank makes an error, my account manager doesnt even bother investigating the reason for the error anymore.

Let me start by saying that it has been YEARS since is used the connectivity pack applications on my desktop (though they are still there). I live in Israel and had the same problem viewing my phone book and memo files on the PC as they had entries in Hebrew using the keybez application that comes with the HP200lx to work with Hebrew. The keybez application on the palmtop allows for internationalization of the HPLX but this is not supported by the connectivity pack. I found awork around that would enable me to VIEW the HPLX foreign language files on my desktop using the connectivity pack: The font used by the connectivity pack is held in a file which I THINK is called cpack100.fnt or cpack100.fon. It is not hard to find -there is only one font file in the installation directory. This is a WINDOWS 3 font file If you go to simtel or a similar site you can download a font editor for this type of file and edit the font so that the Greek characters you need appear in the corrct place. I found this and it worked fine for VIEWING. There was nothing I could do to switch the keyboard in memo to using Hebrew. The application which converts memo files to rtf does not support foreign languages as far as I know. Another alternative is to save the MEMO files as ASCII files and use a greek DOS text editor on your desktop as the code page used by the palmtop should be the same as for Greek language DOS on the desktop. -- ** David Becher ** davidb@netmedia.net.il davidb@cimatron.co.il ** www.cimatron.co.il ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2002 07:35:32 +0100 Reply-To: "Helmuth E.

As far as executable files go, I think that ones not designed specifically for the LX compress the best.

I agree wholeheartedly. I used Pocket Quicken for about five years and it did everything I wanted at the time. Only recently have I switched to desktop Quicken because of investment tracking, which it handles better because of automatic downloading of prices. If you keep track of investments separately, I think that PQ should be sufficient for standard checking/credit card needs.

Well, the average word is about 5 charcaters long, I guess. So in average, you would only donate 2.5 characters to the phone company. But it would bake the long SMSs more readable. Okay, so if the last space is more than 3 characters before the end, the word is truncated. Otherwise splitting is done at the last space.

No chance. The card phones need much more power than the HPLX can provide. If they operate at 5 V, they need at least 2W/5V=400mA peak current only for sending. 150mA is the highest current the palmtop can provide. You can, however, use the Accurite Doubleslot, which has an external power source. This would eliminate the power problem. But I suspect that there may be no DOS driver for these devices.

Well, let's make sure we are not talking about two different things: There is the "data card", which is a PCMCIA card which interfaces a Nokia GSM phone to a computer. And there is the "card phone" which is a stand-alone PCMCIA card in which you put a SIM card and which has an own antenna, thus its name "card phone" - it is a complete phone (without speaker and microphone, though) in a PCMCIA card. So, Peter, what are you speaking about? "data card" works. "card phone" doesn't, I think.

I think the image converting proxy I was talking about can really accelerate web browsing over 9600 bps line: if we resize all images to 50% of their size (so HP-LX screen becomes virtualy 1280x400...), while reducing them to b&w bitmaps, we can squash typical fullscreen JPEG, which is about 50-100 KB big to something like ~ 400x400 monochromatic bitmap, which is cca 2 KB even without compression (and posible less with compression enabled...). 9600 bps gives you cca 1 KB per second, while typical home web surfing is done at 4-5 KB per second. This means that waiting times shouldn't be as bad; except for those with bad connectivity to image converting proxy... (On the other hand, sometimes images are used for titles using just very tiny font, so that on-fly resizing should be probably just optional... pages with small fonts/images usually look good in 640xXXX, while it would make sense to resize pages optimized for 800xXXX. -- http://arachne.cz/ (Arachne WWW browser for DOS+Linux / Webhosting / MP3streaming) --- end of forwarded message --- -- http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/contact ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2002 18:16:59 +0100 Reply-To: "Helmuth E.

For example, to open 123, you write the file macro.txt: {Fn+F1}="", #50#{123} and convert it to the format needed by pushkeys with: txt2mac macro.txt The #50# means wait for 50 clock ticks before sending the {123} key out. To lauch 123 on the Software Carousel session 1, you write the batch file: pushkeys macro.mac switchc 1 The #50# does the trick of waiting for switchc having switched to the right SC session, before starting sending the keys.

I am not sure when I bought my first Lx. It was a 700LX. Then I bought a 200lx when I realised that this was Nirvana.:-) I sent this Hp200LX to Thaddeus and got it upgraded to 8mb DS. I remember that the DS increased the overall speed a lot. I was very satisfied. > Then a 4MB unit.

It needs a vacation at Thaddeus. The screen is messed up. I got a "new" one with 32mb DS from the US the other day. It also has SC. I must say that SC made a huge difference.

I do not want to go back to a 1x. I could do some tests though. I have a backup which is a 1x. But what made the difference was the internal ram upgrade.

It gives up too soon when sending as is. If it is the first line then fair enough, but otherwise it should look for any spaces coming after on the same line and if it finds some it can safely drop the segment it has into the next message.

Please browse through all programs which begin with the same name as your last name does and look for dead links, make suggestions for links which I could add (for example a link to the homepage of the programs where the user can look for a more recent version), look for programs which could be added to another category, provide new screen shots (GIF format, please!) etc.... And of course report any inconsitencies you find! Of course it would also be nice if someone looks into the programs veginning with X, Y and so on - Probably not many people here with a last name beginning with these letters. ;-) Every suggestion or contribution send to super@daniel-hertrich.de please (Ian, I choose not to use super@palmtop.net for this, because I expect _many_ emails and I think it's not useful if they go to the whole super team). _Software_ contributions please as always to super@palmtop.net! That way you can help to make palmtop.net a hopefully everlasting place with up-to-date information and downloads for HP palmtop users! Thank you very much daniel P.S.: This is my changelog so far (ignore the comments in parentheses and capital letters, the changes to SUPER.GDB, from which the file base will be generated, have NOT yet been applied to the SUPER file base, so don't look for any changes!)

When I went from a 10Mb Viking to a 30Mb Sandisk, I gained 36% more battery life according to BattLog.

I found relatively little about SS-97 physical protocol on the web, but some say it is a current interface, other site says it is equal to RS-232, only using different voltage levels. I intend it to be used as a serial-to-parallel converter for the HPLX, if possible. Could someone enlight me about SS-97? I hope some german members on the list may have more info, as it has something to do with Siemens/BAM? Anyhow, the box has 16 unmarked DIP switches, so setting it up properly might be a challange in itself.

There's a bit of a long learning curve. It seems like it's worth the effort but my scheduling needs are simple so it wasn't worth it for me. You can try flexpad. It follows the PIM/PE paradigm of using ascii files with control characters. I think it's a little easier to use. The only negative is that it's not free. It has a 5 second nagware screen. I used it for a while and decided I didn't like it enough to pay for it so I want back to the built-ins.

Daniel, I am so pleased you found this so quickly! I thought, an hour ago, "Oh no, how shall I find and fix this!". But, after maybe 10 "chkdsk/f" I found the reason! It is now fixed in version 1.23 at geocities/aghutchins/postpdu.zip.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Just babbling about my fun: I bought a 55 Euro grabbag of 200LX stuff from Ebay, with only a guaranteed 5MB DS motherboard as contents, plus some Ersatzteile loose parts. Got indeed my upgrade - cheap as it goes, plus some junk plus some unexpected bonuses, to wit: three tops without the hinge crack, 3 battery coversone screen with only a single missing line (plus 3 more screen in semi-deplorable condition), and a small bag with a non-working add-on memory board...., plus a torx 6 screwdriver and a 5MB HP card. Oh yes, and a broken German keyboard ( scrapped and gone now). Ohmed the broken memory board out, used a chip description from the web, found 4 pins unconnected, soldered the print breaks ( at the connector pins) with a biggish 25watt soldering iron, and suddenly found myself after about two hours( after 4 retries and only a single curse though) with a working free 4MB (TtT) upgrade board ... to replace a 1MB board in one of my 2MB LX's. I had my own 'Ersatzteile' also, hence:. So, I repaired three hinge breaks, gave a broken screen LX a new screen, upgraded one LX to DS, 5 MB, another to SS 5 MB, and still have a box of parts left, all for about 50 dollars ( ex shipping ;-).

I read 2-3 posts that the keyboard works just fine, and I am adding my own post here, now, that it works fine without locking. I have used it off and on for several years and it has worked just right. Since I have one of these babies for sale, I would like to know for sure if anyone experienced any problems with the keyboard, such as locking. Another feedback I recall is that some keys did not register correctly, and finally that the keyboad driver is unreliable with other drivers present. I have not had any mis-registrations of keys, and with the ntkb driver (the only one I ever used) I never experienced any conflict with other drivers on my machine. Again, if anyone has documented any such failures or problems, can you kindly post about it? Definitive, reliable and repeatable failures can lead to a rapid fix! I appreciate your feedback on this. Thank you in advance. Avi _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

When I went from a 10Mb Viking to a 30Mb Sandisk, I gained 36% more battery life according to BattLog. I also have a 20Mb Kodak (OEM'ed by Sandisk) which seems to give me even longer batttery life, though I confess I haven't measured it with Battlog. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2002 07:40:56 +0100 Reply-To: "Helmuth E.

I didn't find any broken links there, and I have notified Daniel, as well as suggesting some other fixes, such as: 1. Fix the link for PAL (Palmtop Application Library). Its link is broken, but it still exists at the following location: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/gilles/pal/PAL.htm. 2. Add an entry for this DOS batch language enhancement, called STRINGS. It's free from the PC magazine FTP site: ftp://ftp.zdnet.com/pcmag/1992/1222/strings.zip 3. Add an entry for Duplicate File Locator (DFL), found at http://www.filelibrary.com:8080/cgi-bin/freedownload/DOS/h/50/dfl340.zip. "DFL (Duplicate File Locator) v3.40: complete software system used to locate, view, compare and delete duplicate files on your system, on subdirectories or on network drives." 4. You have got to put a copy of PALMPC somewhere that people can find it. I have a copy, but all the web references I could find to it are broken. I will send this to super@palmtop.net, as Daniel suggests. 5. We need a link to Curtis Cameron's DBCHECK utility. It's a great tool for diagnosing database errors. http://members.aol.com/FreeWhL44/dbcheck.zip (But I see in his log that he seems to have addressed this.)

For this purpose, I would like to ask you for help: I modified a Forth language interpretter to add a lot of LX features, including sleep control, LX graphics (95lx, 100lx and 200lx) and screen control and a lot of other things particular to the palmtop. When I sent it in I included the comment that it isn't a full implementation of Forth, in that it doesn't have an IDE like Pygmy100, although it is a full fledged Forth. Actually most Forths don't have IDEs but at that time I didn't know that. Whoever put it up translated that into "it is not a complete product". I can't remember who it was. This was years ago. But I emailed him with an explanation and he basically said he didn't believe me and he wouldn't change it. I let it go. I realy would like to see that statement removed at some time if you have a chance. It's simply not true. By the way, Ted Beach wrote that Forth. I just modified it for the LX. I think his name should be first, not mine. I did have his permission to post it. Someone mentioned source code for these files. He specifically asked that the source code not be posted. That's a bit of a shame because it's nicely coded. But it's what he wanted.

For this purpose, I would like to ask you for help: I just realized that Mini4th version description also says it is a beta, which is not true. If I remember right it's version 4.15 of Mini4th. I changed only a little of the original assembly source. I mostly added things new routines. Some in assembly and some in Forth. And they were tested. I also just read the read.me file that I wrote and I realize that the mistakes in the description came from me. I made the mistakes and he just copied them. I guess that's why he wouldn't change them. It is a finished product as it is. I had planned to add other features but I never got back to it. It is not a beta, but I did make it sound that way in the read.me. That was just part of the disclaimer. All Forths are crash prone while developing. As is C. Except for the case I mentioned in the read.me, this is no more crash prone than others.

Since English is becoming a world language, at least on the internet, and English is primarily Germanic thanks to the Viking invaders in England over the centuries. We were taught in school that English is primarily Latin, which it is if you count words in the dictionary. That includes medical and legal and religious terms. But if you count the words people use day in and day out, they're about 80% Germanic. I guess Hagar must have solved that problem. :) Barry ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2002 16:55:16 +0000 Reply-To: Russel Brooks Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Russel Brooks Subject: Re: Around The World In 80 Minutes?

What I'd like seems simple enough. I just want to be able to use Pegasus Mail for DOS, but also be on the windows network so I can map my SanDisk card over the network from my palmtop. I have an Accton ethernet card, and I have a large SanDisk I'd like to mount over the network as my L:\ drive. I'd like to use my L:\ drive from both Windows clients and my DS palmtop, and then take the SanDisk home at night in my palmtop (to still access as the L:\ drive, using the DOS assign command). I simply want to take advantage of my network disk space and also have a tcp/ip stack, like in the January/February 1997 PTP Article on Networking: http://www.hplx.net/articles.accton.html The article states that you can load these, to enable the coexistance of a NetWare and tcp/ip connection: op2216.exe pd2212.com 0x62 5 pktmux.exe 2 /i pktdrv.exe /i pdipx.com netx.exe But, I'm not on a Novell network. I'm on an NT/Unix network, and need something that supports the NT Microsoft Lan Manager SMB/NetBui protocols. The following gets me up on my NT lan (albeit, I can only mount my palmtop shares from Win95/98 clients): op2216 lxen2216 0x66 (from LXETH) net-up.bat (from LXTCP) But, I then have a problem loading any tcp/ip packet drivers. The following will get me up with the WATTCP tcp/ip protocol stack: op2216 pd2212 0x62 5 But, I then have problems loading the lxen2216 packet driver and net-up.bat. Is what I want possible? I'm trying to use pktmux and pktdrv as in the January/February 1997 PTP Article on Networking, like this: op2216 pd2212 0x62 5 pktmux 2 /i /p /a /b pktdrv /i /a lxen2216 -i 0x66 pktmux is supposed to work with WATTCP. But, is it possible to also mount windows shares? A 1/1/94 comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc FAQ says this: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=pktmux+WATTCP+wfw&hl=en&scoring=d&selm=63o9gq%249il%40sparky.qds.co m&rnum=1 A-14. Is there an NDIS over Packet Driver Shim? Joe Doupnik writes: "No. Packet Drivers work by having an application register for a particular packet TYPE, such as 0800 for IP. NDIS works much differently, by offering a peekahead of every packet to applications in turn, a polling operation. The only way NDIS could gracefully sit on a PD would be to run the Packet Driver in all-types mode and let NDIS see all pkts not used by other clients. Needless to say, that's an undesirable situation. The quick solution, costing about US$100 (at least at my place, more at yours) is a second Ethernet board in the client together with a second IP address (most important, please)." A-1 says: "If your card supports NetBIOS, this is also acceptable, since you can run a packet-driver-over-NetBIOS shim..... Shims are available to run packet drivers over NetBIOS, ODI, or NDIS, in order to run software expecting a packet driver over NDIS, ODI, or NetBIOS instead. There are also shims to run NDIS over ODI (ODINSUP), and ODI over Packet Drivers (PDETHER)." A-15 mentions the Accton card: "How do I run NetBIOS over TCP/IP? NetBIOS over TCP/IP is discussed in RFCs 1001 and 1002. Assuming you don't need any of the extensions to RFC NetBIOS Microsoft created to make NetBIOS work smoothly in a routed environment (available only in their IP stack), you can choose from a wide variety of commercial vendors. For example, FTP Software's PC/TCP includes RFC NetBIOS support; Performance Technologies has a NetBIOS that runs over packet drivers, as does Accton (LANSoft)." So, the mystery, is how can I use both tcp/ip and my windows network? What about adding a DOS nfs client to the mix? Does this page help any? http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&selm=38881334.E0FCCB3D%40free.fr&rnum=2 It shows to make WATTCP work with "Microsoft Network Client version 3.0 for MS-DOS" when it is running NetBEUI only. I can go through the work of installing Microsoft Network Client 3.0 for MS-DOS on a laptop, it it will help. Has anybody used that Microsoft tcp/ip stack before, and knows if Pegasus Mail and other DOS apps will work with it? I really appreciate what anybody has to say, and I hope I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel here. Thanks. --Ted Peterson ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2002 18:41:06 +0100 Reply-To: Juergen Korthof Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Juergen Korthof Subject: AW: Around The World In 80 Minutes?

I had added parsing of e-mail addresses to allow the user to just pick then from POST.ADR, and I broke a few other things in the process, especially screen display. Also I allow a comma after the "!" character in an e-mail/mobile address now, even on the To: line of the message. > Thanks a lot also to Stefan Peichl, who wrote PDU.COM, the > core of PostPDU! Indeed. I especially like being able to use PDU to just tell me how a message will look when it is sent - from this the facsimiles or recipts are made and stored. - Tony Oh, we must not forget ROBOT.EXE, and WWW.EXE, without which we can't make the palmtop talk to the phone. Then we use POST.EXE as the interface, PE to write the messages.

I began using lha95 because it was the only thing small enough to make any sense on my first 512k 95lx with a 512k card. As a result I have a lot of stuff still in LZH files. On the desktop I always used PKZip and now I use it on the palmtop as well. Eventually I'll convert the LZH files to ZIP. I think PKZIP is the only really sensible archiver for the palmtop for most people simply because it's the standard. When you get a compressed file it's usually a ZIP file and when you send a ZIP file you would normally send a ZIP file unless there's a special arrangement. I think the reason PKZIP falls behind now is that there hasn't been a new release for years. Maybe Phil Katz got interested in something else. But the reason it's the standard today is because for years he kept improving the compression. Whenever someone else came out with better compression he came out with better yet. The old standard was ARC. It was the standard on a lot of platforms. In fact it was the only compressor on a lot of platforms. PKZIP used to be PKARC and completely compatible with ARC till they took him to court over that. He lost and had to change the name and become uncompatible. But he improved his compression and speed so much it became the standard. Anybody heard of ARC or SEA Associates recently?

The 32MB never has worked very well - right now I can't get it to recognize the large RAM disk. The 5MB works OK, but it is small. I really got used to the 96MB, and would like to fix the screen. Also, I would like to have the 32MB working properly. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to change bodies or screens, or how to get the 32Mb to work properly? I live in Taiwan, so sending it to the States is not a very good option. Where's a good place to look for information on taking a Palmtop apart?

This site describes the disassembly and what you will find. I recommend buying a cheap donor 100LX with a good screen and case and just transplanting into that case. You should not have to disassemble the screen, but you will want to transfer the keyboard. This is what I have done recently to my double-speed, 8MB 200LX. It now resides in a black case that seems on the outside to be a 100LX, but has the greenish screen bezel and keyboard of a 200LX.

I have a copy of Zsoft Paintbrush IV+ but it saves in PCX and one other format (TIF I think) but not CGM. So can anyone recall a DOS Paintbrush-like program that can output CGM files? My goal is bring such images into Framework IV on my 200LX (CGM is the only graphics format FW can import). I know another route to go would be to use a program like Hijack to convert from one graphics format to another, but certainly, it would be simpler to just have a drawing program on the LX that could make CGM files directly (perhaps this means using a mouse at times but oh well). In any case, once I know what would work, I will be able to keep watch on eBay and at used computer stores for such an item(s). Thanks, Martin G. Ramirez ============================ Dr. Martin G.

It is amazing how well we all can work together and how well you all coordinate your work yourself! Wonderful! Well, what I actually wanted to say is: Please don't report broken links to "Offsite files" which have a "#" in the URL! These links don't work because of a problem with a CGI script (you will get a "CGI error" in that case). Laust and I are working on that problem and hope to have solved it in a few days. As long as such links cause errors, I will not be able to put all the D&A stuff onto SUPER, because Avi and I agreed that it would be best to put links to the D&A download page on SUPER instead of putting the actual files there.

It's no good using a tool that compresses well if no one has it or wants to use it. PKZIP does a "good enough" job and everyone knows how to deal with it. Example: ARJ is a very good tool with little user use. It is used by manufactures as part of software distribution like in the CPACK files. ARJ has been around a long time and has (had?) good support but most people aren't familiar with it because Zip is Good Enough. I book marked the site though, it has interesting data that could be useful one day. Cheers...

ARC was by SEA (I still have an old copy). Katz came out with PKARC which was *.ARC compatible and better. SEA sued him and won, goodbye PKARC. In revenge Katz made PKZIP which was similar in concept but not compatible. It quickly became the standard partly because people were annoyed at the law suit. The most important part of PKZIP is that he made the file format public domain so law suits couldn't later screwup folks that had been using it the way *.ARC affected folks. By all accounts Katz was an jerk. He may have started PKWARE but his drinking became more important and when he finally drank himself to death a couple of years ago he hadn't had anything to do with the company for some time. Search the web, the story is out there somewhere. Good tool though. PKZIP is the tool of choice unless special requirements force you to do something different. Cheers...

When we bought ARC on our Data General about 10 or 12 years ago it was from a DG author who was licensed by SEA. I got to know him a little from a long series of conference calls when he added some features to make it work with a system I was working on. Real nice guy. I wish I could remember his name. He had worked previously for Phil Katz and he had not one nice thing to say about him. The slightest mention of Katz set him off. He started working for Katz either right before or right after the affair with SEA. I forget which. But he said that SEA gave Katz all kinds of chances to settle the issue by simply giving them some credit in his program, but Katz wasn't willing.

Actually all people who have posted and will post their name and location (and whatever else) agree that these info is publicly available on the web, since it is stored automatically and is accessable from everywhere and everyone. But their could be law issues anyway. Maybe someone should rather try how to extract and process the data easily directly from Mike Kopplin's or Al's archives and publish _that_info_. Would be also interesting to create an LXMap from the data. So one can search for a specific person in LXMap and LXMap takes you to the place where that person lives. :-) GTX daniel -- http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/contact ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 25 Jan 2002 07:23:23 -0500 Reply-To: norman.wolfe@verizon.net Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Norman Wolfe Subject: Around the world in 80 minutes MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Norman Wolfe Currently: Washington, DC, USA (30 miles south of Baltimore) Previously: Omaha, Nebraska; Vilnius, Lithuania. 200LX x2 32mb. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Fri, 25 Jan 2002 07:31:26 -0500 Reply-To: J & F Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: J & F Subject: Re: Fluff: Around The World In 80 Minutes?

Diet is free software. It works quite well on regular desktop PCs using DOS. Using Diet is not completely automatic, as it requires some command-line interaction to compress a file. With Diet loaded as a TSR, it automatically detects files compressed with Diet and un-compresses them as needed. Diet'ing a program file will compress it on-disk but it does NOT require that Diet be loaded as a TSR. This last function can sometimes be a problem, as a Diet'ed program file might get uncompressed during a copy operation if you have Diet installed as a TSR. To get around this, there is a small utility to patch a Diet'ed .EXE file so Diet (as a TSR) no longer automatically recognizes the file as compressed by Diet. This does not interfere with the compression of the program file on disk, nor does it interfere with the program's ability to run. On the subject of Stacker, Yves Leurquin implied that it required the entire volume to be compressed, but that has never been true. I routinely created Stacked volumes that took up only part of a drive. As I recall, this was not the default behavior, but it was always possible. For speed, I always created the volume (stacvol.*) files on my desktop and moved them onto the SRAM or flash cards that I used in the palmtop. Like many others, I have abandoned Stacker because the uncompressed space on CF cards is plenty now and I'd rather have the available memory that the driver consumed.

Keep the junkmail/porn bots > at bay. I don't like the idea of deleting the thread. So far I have only modified the actual content of one message, and that was to remove a software password that was accidentally posted. I do modify message headers occasionally to correct threading. Some time ago I reprocessed my archives to hide email addresses displayed in message headers to help deter spambots. Addresses in the message body, such as in someones sig or where the mta has added something like "joe@domain.com said...", still appear. I am trying to work out an effective way to handle these as well. Of course hiding addresses does remove some of the usefulness of the archives. I have been contacted a number of times with questions about a post I made in the past, but people have also voiced concerns about having their address public. Anyway, so if you post your list the addresses will be visible. Maybe just include the email in the db. Or perhaps a better idea would be to zip the file and attach it along with the db. Then again, I'm not sure about sending attachments to the list.

I am using a MOTOROLA STARTAC 7797 as my digital cellular phone. I have already tried the ones made by VIKING (56 K) and 3M/MHz (both 33.6 and 56 K) modems and none of them work properly with th HP 200LX. I have used these modems with my PALM III (via a card reader that has a RS232 9-pin serial port as an output) and they all work great with the PALM and the cellular phone. I already have a ThinFAX 56 K PCMCIA modem made by EXP that works great with the HP 200LX but the company does not make a cellular-capable version of this. I hope someone on this list might be able to recommend one. Thanks !!

I decided I wanted 3 or 4 more cards of various sizes so I started watching for bargains about 2 weeks ago. I got a 32 meg card for $12 and a 16 meg card for $15, and a couple of larger cards at good prices, too. There are quite a few smaller cards, also, but I wasn't really looking for anything smaller than 16 meg. I've also seen CF readers for very little. I already have one but they always came up in the search. They aren't all bargains. You have to watch closely. And I got outbid at the last minute on some of the best deals. But I did pretty good, overall. If you haven't used Ebay, be sure to read the feedback on the seller's previous sales. I won't buy from anyone who's had more than 1 or 2 negative feedbacks out of each hundred sales. I haven't been bitten yet and I've bought quite a bit from Ebay over the years. I did get one item that wasn't in as good condition as the seller described, but it was still a good deal and I would have bought it if I'd known.

Ancestry includes Irish, German, Norwegian and possibly Iroquois Indian (Native American), if one is to believe a father who was prone to tell tall tales. I'd be interested in anyone who could help me pinpoint my ancestry on a map, as the country doesn't exist anymore . One great grandfather came over in about 1906, when he didn't like the looks of things happening in his area of Europe, I guess... He listed his home as "Bergholz" (or Bergholtz), Prussia. I tried finding it, when I lived in Germany, but I waited too long (I was there three years, but tried asking around halls of record, etc. in my last months there... I imagine it could even be in Poland, for all I know. I tried the "ancient maps" sections of some American universities, but didn't have any luck). Oh, his name was Wilhelm von Rehrmann .... the whole "Ellis Island rush" turned it into "Raymond" (and there are some "Rasmussen" relatives out there who kept their names....). Half of the geneological services try to tie "Raymond" to France; then try to sell me a French coat of arms. Since I know they're wrong (nothing against France), I give up there.... If we merge this with Daniel's HPLX knowledge-base, my LX specialties are: Breaking the LX, losing my data, losing the DS and expanded memory drivers to battery failure and then not being able to find the driver files AND begging for help for *all* sorts of LX and OT things on this list .......... Hmmmm.... Maybe few people would "consult my expertise" in that case.... LUCKILY, I'm pretty good at creating back-ups ;-) Oh, and I'm long winded, even in simple posts..... And, regarding Mike Kopplin's response to someone else's worry about leaving email addresses in the final product. Mike, do you "do" the archives? If so (and anyone else may be interested in this too), there's a free service out there, where you can encrypt your email addr., against spiders, etc. at: http://www.siteup.com/encoder.html It *USED* to let you input the email addr. in an online form, then display the results on your screen; now, they send it to you in an email (maybe they'd work w/ us and encrypt a list of 100+ palmtop users?).

Some kind of cultural thing I guess. Other than native Americans we're all from somewhere else so being American is more like claiming a political identity rather than a national/geographical identity. This thread started as an offshoot of the Norway users so I added my ancestral identity to give it a bit more flavor. Saying you're American only says where you live. :-) Cheers...

The modem dials, the problem is that I cannot get a phone connection to the ISP, even if I dial the number with the phone, I always get a busy tone. I had to dial 0 for a outside line. Then "," for one second pause, then the mentionend number. But it was always busy after the first 3 numbers. Is it possible, that the hotel uses a phone provider that prohibits these numbers? Or needs some prefix? Is the number I used correct?

All these call by call numbers (019... and apperently also 010...) are not available from a hotel I think. You have to use a provider which uses a normal telephone number. Either subscribe with Compuserve Classic, or use one of the providers G|nther Eisele lists in his database. You can download this data base from http://www.guenther-eisele.de Also, have you made sure you dial the probably reqired 0 and then waited for the dialtone? (Dial=ATX3DT0,NUMBER does the job, replace NUMBER with the telephone number of te provider, don'T forget the comma, which lets the modem wait some time before continue dialling!)

There are internet robots which grab email addressses from everywhere and collect them. I have got many spam emails even offering, that I can buy a CD foll with 10 millions of valid email addresses for just 99 US$! There are times when I get more than 10 spam emails per day. Then it's time to change my email address published on http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/contact (which is only a forwarding address). Such an Internet robot only collects what is easy to find (in such archives, for example), but it doesn't subscribe to email lists (yet) to get valid addresses.

Looks like the Hotel has a preselection phone provider which disables all other call by call phone provider. This is often done by Hotels to prevent the guest from using another provider which they cannot charge to the guest. All call by call internet provider use different call by call phone provider, so you should have asked at the desk, which phone provider the hotel uses, and then take an internet call by call provider who uses this phone provider.

Unlike the "normal" and simplistic case of running a debugger against a core file on my own machine where a problem occurred, I'm looking at core files "out of context", where the environment variables and sometimes the offending program are unknown or unavailable to me, even tho I may have access to similar machines (but not theirs). My question, is there a unified approach (or tool) to unix core file analysis that's consistent across the different platforms that will let me determine (1) the name of the offending program (2) show a specific reason why the program failed and (3) show a trace of the routines leading up to the failure? My guess is no ... but then, I'm such an optimist. I don't even know if the exported core-files contain all this information, let alone whether I can extract it. Emails off-list is fine. Many thanks for any responses and/or links. - Longden ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Sun, 27 Jan 2002 11:37:28 -0700 Reply-To: ccohen5 Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: ccohen5 Subject: 200LX-->Corporate Time?? MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I have been working an assignment at a company that does not use the ubiquitous Outlook for its shared calendar system. Instead it uses Corporate Time V4.2. In the file/export drop down menu is, would you believe it, the option to export a .adb file to a 200LX. It requires the down load from the PC of a file ut.exe, and that's as far as I can determine what is needed to hook up. Does anyone have any experience using this program with their LX?

Some hotels seem to have their individual wiring. I had problems last week in France where I could not connect in my hotel room connnecting with the RJ11 of the phone cord but managed to connect with a plug in the meeting room. That is to say it might not be worth to worry too much. Next time in a different hotel it should work again.

When I wanted to unsubscribe (that was after a trip where I wanted to use CS classic, just subscribed before the trip and planned to unsubscribe after it), they offered me to stay with Compuserve, but pay no monthly fees anymore, just half a cent more per minute for every call. So I ended up in staying a CS classic member with a "call by call" account. No fees, except when I really use it. :-) That'S exactly what I need, because I need it only when I'm outside of Germany, and that happens not too often yet.

Thank you for your input. The problem seems really to be that 019... Calls from the hotel are blocked, either by the hotel itself or the phone provider the hotel uses. I asked at the desk but the girls there had no idea of what is going on, they gave me the phone adapter and a sheet how to configure Windows to dial out, that was all they could do for me. My dialing procedure was correct. For HP: I know that the wiring in France is different from ours most of the time, they use the outer lines in the RJ11 plug while here the inner two wires are used. With a pair of needles this can be fixed ;-) To find out what numbers are allowed is really complicated, this seems to be the drawback of liberalisation in the telecom market. It was expensicve, now it is complicated or expensive.

Really bad news (if my experience is any indication): RAs seem to be far more prone to leakage than any other rechargables. Used Grandcell RAs in my Palm IIIx for a while, then discovered to my horror that they'd leaked all over the motherboard and corroded all the important traces. My Gameboy and several flashlights also showed signs of corrosion around the battery terminals, enough to make me toss all my RAs. To be fair, it might have just been a bad batch. I've never had any problems with NiMH cells, though, and I must be one unlucky dude to have 2 dozen RAs, purchased over the space of a year, /all/ leak while in use. (Heck, they even leaked all over the /charger/!) I wonder if there's any connection between these leaks and my LX screen bubbling into a sickly green mess... - Adrian ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 28 Jan 2002 16:08:04 +0100 Reply-To: daniel.hertrich@GMX.DE Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Daniel Hertrich Subject: FLUFF: Spam MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi friends, for those of you who have not yet seen such a spam email I recently mentioned here in a discussion about email addresses in the HPLX-L archives, I forward you one which I just received.

When this thread started I replied to Patrick, Dario and Siegfried off-list about this very problem. Also, my nearly year long experience with these batteries is that they never attained their suggested 20x recharge cycle. And their recharge after about the 10th time resulted in less and less of a full capacity charge even when they were completely discharged. Not a good value. Siegfried has reported having excellent results with the Duracell Ultra series AA batteries, results comparable to the Energizer lithiums a lot of us went over to but at a much lower cost. Any one else having good results with the Ultras?

The US legislature is now seriously considering dealing with telephone solicitation and they way it looks like they might do it should be effective. There will be a single 800 number that we can call to have ourselves put on a do-not-call list. Vendors will receive a $5000 fine for each call to someone on that list. If they're that serious about it it might eventually extend to internet spam and other countries might also adopt a policy like this. Of course that sets a precident for government to control the internet and I'm not sure I wouldn't rather have spam. It might also be impossible for governments to prevent sending spam to other countries. I can't think of any other way to stop spam. This way might not even work. And the cure might be worse than the sickness. I'm currently getting 5 to 6 spam emails a day. If I sign up for a couple of sites (that promise not to reveal personal information) it jumps to 40 or 50 a day for a while and then settles back down. Last night I got on AOL hoping for a chat session with my granddaughter. While waiting for her I started getting instant messages containing links and containing all sorts of ads, mostly for porn sites. I wasn't even in a chat room and I'd guess I got 10 of these per minute. Some very objectionable. She didn't show up. It wasn't scheduled. I just know she's sometimes there Sunday evening and she knows I'm there sometimes Sunday evening. But I'm almost glad. And if she had, it would have been nearly impossible to chat with so many interruptions.

Seems pretty cheap and it claims to be mico-chip controlled to allow optimal charging for each of the 4 batteries (supports NiMH, NiCad and rechargeable alkalines). Unlike some other chargers, this one has no manual switches to indicate battery type, and each cell gets its own LED indicating charge status (which I observed switching off at different times for different cells). Other than the fact that this isn't a 1 hour charger, it seems pretty flexible (all battery types, all mAH capacities) on top of being inexpensive and somewhat compact (even has the folding prongs, ala the LX charger). Does anyone know the shortcomings of this type of charger, or of this charger specifically? For example, I don't really know how thoroughly it charges each cell, nor do I know how it determines the cell types ... maybe it's all bogus? - Longden ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Mon, 28 Jan 2002 20:32:55 +0200 Reply-To: Daniel Hertrich Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Daniel Hertrich Subject: SUPER update next part MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi friends, here is the SUPER changelog for yesterday and today.

Considering that these batteries are made in Malaysia, whose weather is almost identical, I'd say it's rather unlikely, but not impossible. It's really annoying that it doesn't happen to my NiMHs, though. In any case, as Bob observed, these batteries' recharge capacity falls off rather quickly. I'm not sure if it's common to all RAs, but if so, it makes them a Very Bad Deal in my books...even without the blasted leaks. > > my LX screen bubbling into a sickly green mess... > > Could you exmplain this a little more? Sounds interesting. > Do you have pictures? Sorry, no pictures. My friends all think me weird for surrounding myself with all manner of PDAs, microservers and other gadgets...and no cameras of any sort. And I exaggerated a little. It's actually more of a rippling across the whole surface -- I can feel the unevenness when I run my finger across it. From an angle, it looks like the kind of texture you get with a sloppy paint job, all patchy and stuff. Under the ripples lies a green "stain", also across the whole screen. Now that I look a little more closely, there's a couple of new small patches that are a darker shade. All the above developed gradually over the last year. I hope this doesn't mean another trip to Thaddeus, but I've had my LX for over 5 years now, so it still has a place in my heart, even though I use a Nokia 9210 as my workhorse now. 8-( - Adrian ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2002 00:47:58 -0800 Reply-To: garys@lidar.com Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Gary Spiers Subject: Re: Around The World In 80 Minutes?

I thought about it the following way: Bob is creating a database with the info. I have a database with people who offer HPLX support. We merge the two databases, the entries from my one get an additional checkbox "offers support". We create a subset which only shows the "offers support" entries, so if one chooses the subset he will basically have the knowledge database. All who are interested in the other info as well don't choose the subset. I assume that all people who have posted their info here also agree that their info gets into such a database. There will be no danger of more spam or whatever, since I always zip the database and publish it then. So no web robots can grab the email addresses or other info. If necessary, I can also encrypt the ZIP archive with a password. This would be even safer. Only those people who write me an email (i.e. "register") get the password. What do you think? Anyone who really doesn't want his data to be in a publicly available but zipped and encrypted database? Consider that in the list archives the data is visible anyway. Even unencrypted and unzipped!

You were appointed in 1999 to replace the boring if dependable Lewis Platt. An outsider, you brought to Hewlett-Packard the cult of the celebrity CEO. You said the right things: You promised Wall Street 15 percent annual growth when HP (a sclerotic giant with $42 billion in sales) had seen its growth dip below that figure in 1998. You predicted that HP would be a leader in "the second phase of Internet." You assured employees that you would embrace and yet reform the "HP Way"--the egalitarian, innovative, technologically driven corporate culture that Bill Hewlett and David Packard created. You have not met any of these promises. First, Wall Street has lost faith. Since you took charge, the company's stock has tumbled 50 percent: nearly $4.8 billion in shareholder equity has vanished. By contrast, the stock of IBM has declined only half as much. HP's cost of sales has increased 19 percent from October 1999 to October 2001--but revenue has declined by 9 percent. Among your competitors, only Apple Computer, Gateway, and Compaq Computer have done worse over a similar period. Second, under your management, HP seems unlikely to be a leader in the second phase of the Internet--or anything else. For example, you tried to copy the corporate-services successes of IBM's CEO, Lou Gerstner, by making a pass at PricewaterhouseCoopers, only to see the $17.5 billion merger fall apart. Good thing, too, because purchasing the consultancy could not have made HP another IBM. IBM's services are so attractive because, in addition to expensive servers, IBM sells software. Fully one-third of IBM's profits derive from software sales. HP has--what? Nothing. Your company earned a mere $1 billion in software sales in 2000. Third, far from embracing and renewing HP's corporate culture, your personal style has been comically at odds with the company's traditions. While a CEO with a bodyguard and a Gulfstream IV jet (and tens of millions of dollars in compensation) might be appropriate for some companies, at geeky, democratic HP you have alienated everyone. The 6,000 layoffs you ordered profoundly shocked a company that never laid off anybody. At press time, you were struggling to merge HP with an even more stricken PC maker, Compaq. You have defended the deal by saying it will allow HP to sell higher-margin PCs and servers to corporations and help the company compete in the coveted professional-services market. The William and Flora Hewlett and David and Lucile Packard Foundations (which oppose the deal) have "other concerns," you darkly hint, like "wealth stability." They offer no alternative for HP's future, you complain. Nonsense. Compaq is not a leader in high-margin computers and servers. Like HP, Compaq sells commodity PCs. The merger cannot help HP sell services--HP has no services business. And wealth stability is a perfectly valid concern for shareholders . . . No: the merger will only increase your dependence on commodity PCs with their increasingly slender profit margins, while diluting the strength of your successful businesses like printers. In any case, mergers of large computer companies nearly always fail--as did Compaq's own merger with Digital Equipment. The merger is like two starving men agreeing to share a crust of bread. You say that your critics offer no alternatives? Here are some: HP's mergers should aim to acquire technology, not "scale." Specifically, if HP does plan to sell services and servers, it should, like Sun Microsystems and IBM, sell software as a driver of those products. Why not buy a database, data-storage, or server operating system company? And if HP hopes to be a leader in the second phase of the Internet, it should invest more in research and development and seize new markets in wireless technologies, handheld devices, and the Internet infrastructure that would link such devices together. Your company's best chance is to embrace its own engineering traditions. Many have suggested that if HP's shareholders reject the proposed merger, you will resign. But even if the merger is approved, you should leave. You have badly damaged HP's morale, organization, and strategy. Please go. Write to letters@redherring.com.

If that's the price including the charger it's not a bad price. Without the charger it's pretty high. I paid the same price for 4 1600 mah nimh batteries with a pretty nice charger from www.batterybarn.com. I don't remember what brand they were but they've been great. Previously I bought 1600 mah Nexcell batteries from www.thomasdistributing.com for about $2.35 each. NexCell are good batteries. Since I don't need too many chargers I'm thinking of buying some more batteries from them. They also now have the 1800 mah Maha nimh (also a good brand) now for $14.97 for a 4-pack. That's considerably cheaper than the were a couple of months ago. I just looked on their page and they now have the Nexcell 1800 mah for $12.97 a 4-pack and the 1600 mah are down to $2.10 each. I've had really good results from these batteries. I'm using them in quite a few devices.

The renewal messages that show up on the list are from people who don't read the instructions -- people who will soon be removed from the list automatically unless they correct their mistake. You have to forward the message to LISTSERV@uconnvm.uconn.edu, people, not hplx-l@uconnvm.uconn.edu.

However, for many years I've owned an Olympus D300L digital camera, which is powered by four AA cells (which it wolfs down like you wouldn't believe). Lithium primary cells work best, but as you know they're expensive, and I worry about the ramifications of discarding dozens if not hundreds of primary cells over the camera's lifespan. I tried NiCads and they worked, but I didn't get many shots before having to recharge (especially when using flash). This was before I tried NiMHs for my LX (and I have no external charger for them so I've yet to try them in the camera). I experimented with RAs and found that they had a reasonable lifespan per charge (or at least way better than NiCads) and weren't terribly expensive, so I invested a little money in them. I have a pair of Rayovac chargers and several sets of AAs, going back to 1997. (Since this was a new-to-me technology, I dated all the cells so I could get an idea of how long they lasted.) My experience with Ray-O-Vac Renewal RAs mirrors Adrian's experience, though to a lesser degree. I've had probably a half dozen cells start leaking electrolyte over the years. I've also seen cells reach the point that they just wouldn't hold a reasonable charge and had to be discarded. I don't live in a particularly hot/humid climate (at least not year 'round: Richmond, Virginia, USA). It's also interesting that I see the failures in individual cells from a set. I still have a couple of 1997 cells that hold a fair charge, yet others from that period have long since been trashed. Since these are always used in sets of four in the camera, I'd have expected them to deteriorate more-or-less evenly. Couple that with the occasional leaking cell, and maybe that points to a quality control issue. Anyway, yes, they work, but given that EVERY recharge reduces their capacity (and the lower you run the voltage before recharging the worse the damage) and the inability to charge "in-LX," I don't see them as a great power solution for our palmtops. But then I do things to my NiMHs and LX that makes some users cringe, so take my opinions with the appropriately-sized grain of salt! :o) Rick On 1/29/2002 at 4:27 PM Adrian Ho wrote: >On Tue, Jan 29, 2002 at 08:37:53AM +0200, Daniel Hertrich wrote: >> Are they all from the same brand?

So alkaline-manganese cannot be recharged inside the LX and you are not likely to find a charger readily available when you are away from home.

I've had some recent behavior that I thought I could share with you and possibly request some assistance. I have a 200lx DS 32M. A few months ago, I had some problems when I went to replace the AA batteries in which the palmtop would reset itself and erase the 2M c: drive with the DS/32M drivers on it. Most of the time none of the data on the 32M drive was lost but there was a time when it was. I contacted Mack at T2T who sent me an older version of the driver that only resets the boot block when it initializes the 32M drive. What seemed to fix the problem was replacing the backup battery. I found it strange that i never got a notice that the backup battery was low. A few days ago, the same thing happened when I replaced the AA batteries, only this time it also corrupted the 220M card I had inserted which had my latest backups on it. I reloaded the DS/32M drivers, rebooted and it wanted to reinitialize the 32M drive. I ran the older 32M driver then ran chkdsk on the 32M drive. chkdsk thinks it might be a non-dos partition, but it sees about 16M of data on the drive as lost allocation units which implies that my files are still there but the partition table is corrupted. Could anyone suggest ways I could possibly recover the files without having to identify a thousand lost chain files? Thanks very very much in advance! -Jeff ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2002 08:39:33 +0100 Reply-To: konstantin.witzleben@GMX.DE Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Konstantin v.

You need at least very small but strong fingers, some inches of thin string (to compress the spring - compress it, asseblbe the hinge and then somehow cut the string from outside, so the spring can work again). This is how I tried - and failed. :-( I even doubt that people at Thaddeus or Tom Tundel are able to assemble a right hinge. BUT: Some people said that they can work with their palmtops even without the spring. I cannot really imagine how the screen case is held in its position then, but it SEEMS to be possible. Maybe with some rubber or other material in the gap between the right hinge cap and the lower (keyboard) part of the case?

When I spoke to the current owner (several years ago), the only thing special about the LX version (compared to FW4), was that he reprogrammed FW to recognize 2 LX keys to act as "in" and "out", and was unaware (till I told him) that Fn-1 and Fn-2 would do the same. He had big plans to integrate FW with some other shareware apps (ie, an emailer), but apparently that never went anywhere. I agree with the sentiments. I used it as a programmable outliner on steroids for many years on my desktop/notebooks (tho I still keep a copy of FW4 on my LX for working with large documents). - Longden ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2002 07:23:49 -0800 Reply-To: Longden_Loo@CANDLE.COM Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Longden Loo Subject: Re: Rechargeable alkalines MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii > The big problem with reusable alkaline batteries is the requirement > for a special charger device, which provides constant voltage (1,62- > 1,68V) throughout the process (the Ni-Cd, Ni-Mh, Li-ion all use > constant current chargers if I understand correctly). > > So alkaline-manganese cannot be recharged inside the LX and you > are not likely to find a charger readily available when you are away > from home. I mentioned a few days ago (subject: "RayoVac charger") that I had just bought a small (? ... 1.25"x4.75"x3") charger with retractable prongs that handles reusable alkalines, NiMH and NiCad. The charger was only $10 at a CompUSA (RayoVac charger model PS1) and is small enough to bring along on trips. The charger is supposedly micro-chip controlled to (1) determine the remaining capacity and (2) determine charge completion. This is what it says on the enclosed literature, FWIW.

Well, I admit to having been influenced by both C's predecessor, BCPL (itself a typeless language) and by Richard Bartle's MUDDLE, an object oriented programming language designed especially for writing Multi-User Dungeon (MUD) games. A language without data types and keywords has a great degree of clean elegance, something I was trying to reproduce in W.

The standard devices of the 200LX and the 700LX are good for me. I don't use them daily. I write some texts while looking TV, read e-texts, while my wife and my daughter are shopping, and have a complete e-mail-environment (all accounts of all familiy members), so it is possible to fetch/send e-mails under more or less all cirkumstances. For these things 2 MB RAM and single speed are sufficent. The 8 MB CF is a little bit small, but I could delete some games... So the 700LX is a very good solution for fax and sms. It doesn't fit into the pocket of my jeans, but it is portable. The 200LX was a "Schnaeppchen" (how in english?), because it was really cheap, costs as much as a 700LX on ebay. I was very happy.

Paracetamol (Tylenol or acetaminophen) powder doesn't seem to be particularly conductive, so it should be okay. Even so, it would robably be best to get as much of the dust off as possible, using some kind of compressed air spray, before wiping down the palmtop with a damp cloth. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2002 14:56:46 +0200 Reply-To: Nigel Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Nigel Subject: Re: 91 and counting MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi Daniel, GR8 to 'meet up with you'! First let me explain that although a enthusiastic user of HP95LX since way back, I have never progressed to the 100/200 so do not wish to make a statement concerning technicalities relating to the 100/200 that experienced users will find false! My understanding re the phone book is that there is a converter FROM HP95 TO 100/200LX (Hang on, will try to extract some info from an archive dated 21/09/1995 that discusses in detail...) Bother! file is not on my desk machine :-( I have a hard copy in front of me and after reading think electronic version will be of interest to you. Will search / retrieve from tape back-up and send as separate mail. To Continue... Double bother!! File is on now defunct back-up tape i.e. I no longer have a tape transport system that accepts the media... If hard copy correct, the file originated in the Palm Top Papers. The file name being 'HP10095.TXT', at least that is what the header info says... Anyway, I also have the desk-top (PC) HP PIM applications and when running can open PBK or PDB (95 or 100 [200?]) phone files. The 95 does not support all the fields in the 100 / 200 so is not backward compatible. If opening a PBK file I can save as a PDB file but not having a later machine have no way of confirming success re final format. Last thought (for now!) is that if the HP user data is prepared as a PDB file with Name: = Name and Number = eMail address and other data being placed in custom fields (note in text referred to above actually says Phone book is just a variation on the database. Quote "A secret of much of the 100LX's power, flexibility and relative ease-of-use is Data Base, a program that underlies many of the applications. In fact Phone Book, World Time and Notes are all variations of Data Base") the data will be accessible using the 100/200 directly and via the PC application if user has 95LX. Hope the above helps. One day maybe I will upgrade to a 100/200? Till the next time, KEEP SMILING :-) Nigel R in sunny South Africa (actually a HUGE thunderstorm is taking place as I type this but it WILL be sunny later!) ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2002 14:26:13 +0100 Reply-To: Jacques Belin Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Jacques Belin Subject: 2000mA NiMh !!

Well, you see, a PBK file is the native phone book format on the 95LX. The 95LX cannot read a PDB file, but a 100LX or 200LX can directly read in a PBK file. From the File Open dialog, it prompts for a 'File to Open', supplying the default mask of '*.PDB'. But you don't have to use only what they offer. You can directly input a .PDB file, which will read in immediately. You do not need any separate tools. I moved from the 95LX to a 100LX some years back (and then on to the 200LX a year or two later), so this transparent forward migration made it easy.

Seldom used pocket radio 6. Spares in case I run out of NiMH and can't charge them They have about half the capacity of standard alkalines. They last longer if only partially discharged and then charged. They have long shelf life. The reason I use them is for the long shelf life in all above applications except the flashlight. I use them in the flashlight because I have no NiMH AAA's. I have never had one leak, but with list response, I will be checking more often. My wife's Olympus camera takes the expensive lithium camera battery, or two AA's. I try to remember to recharge them before any big events. I also carry RayOVac's small charger. It has the advantage of charging Alkaline, NiCads and NiMH. 1600mAH NiMH takes overnight or a long time. It can also charge single cells and is nice for travelling. I thought about converting one so I could plug it into my cigarette lighter. Correspondence with RayOVac said that my proposed modifications would not work. I think they are wrong and modification would be simple. Haven't done it yet.

I use NiMH 1500mAh, that I recharge in the Palmtop and they last for about 2 days of intensive use, or 5-6 hours of continuous use. Maybe the decrease in battery life is also related to the amount of work that the CPU has to do: now I do a lot more stuff in the palmtop than I used to do before - I have one session with HP PIM, one with PIM/PE, one with TimeTacker/LX, MindMap/LX, Post/LX, ... and I am constantly switching over between sessions. But I strongly recommend the upgrade. The shorter battery life is largely compensated with all the new things that can be done with the palmtop.

I was able to put my 32M in the drawer as "backup". Since the change I have noticed significantly shorter battery life. With the 32M unit I consistently got 3 to 4 weeks from alkaline batteries and maybe 6 to 7 weeks using lithiums. With my new unit I am getting 1 to 2 weeks with the alkalines and 2 to 3 with lithiums. The 32M 200lx used batteries at about the same rate as the 4M I had before it. The decreased battery life of half what I've been accustomed to has been a shock. I know that there are a few other 96M users on the list. Have you had similar experiences, or do I need to send this one back the Thaddeus for a checkup? Thanks, bob For what it's worth, both the 32M and the 96M have the doublespeed upgrades. ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2002 16:30:51 -0700 Reply-To: Michael Kopplin Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: Michael Kopplin Subject: Re: Idea: eMail->SUPER->File->email In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII > Idea: > I wish I could send an email to SUPER with a command similar to: > > GET fn.ext > > ..and SUPER would send me back an email with that file as an > attachment.

My ISP is AT&T Global (the old IBM.net). When I connect with WWW/LX and HV I got connected, a blank screen and nothing else. I think I wasn't the only one with this problem. I haven't tried recently though. Also, I'm using WWW/LX v2; I don't know if v3 would make a difference. Are there anyother ATTGlobal customers? Does HV work now? Cheers...

Since HV doesn't work with my ISP I have to use another pc to logon to the net, surf to SUPER, find the file and download it, connect my 200LX to that pc, and transfer the file to the LX. There are some features that can speed up parts of this (pc card readers vs. cpack serial connection) but it still ends up being a multi-step process. Idea: I wish I could send an email to SUPER with a command similar to: GET fn.ext ..and SUPER would send me back an email with that file as an attachment. Since I use WWW/LX for email I would receive it on the LX and eliminate all the transfer bothers of my previous description. It would also mean I could easily obtain SUPER files when traveling when pc->LX transfer connections might not be available. I expect this would only work for files kept at the SUPER site and not those pointed to from SUPER. Comments? Cheers...

Russ, it works fine here, with dialup through an attglobal node in New Zealand. It also worked from the UK 2 years ago. So, if you try it you may not be disappointed :) In fact HV always gets http:/www.geocities.com/aghutchins/postpdu.zip but here IE does not!! Both thru atglobal. Which reminds me - amyone using postpdu.zip should get the latest version 1.27 from the above address (posted 27 Jan). > (I'd still like the email file retriever if possible.) With the full file name on a line in a message in POST/LX you could use "G" to grab it and lauch HV to get it. Probably ROBOWEB/LX could be used to search for a keyword and return the results. But, I agree of course, an e-mail method would be a great option - assuming you start out knowing the exact file name. - Tony ** HPLX-L LIST Info at http://www.sp.uconn.edu/~mchem1/HPLX.shtml ========================================================================= Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2002 16:27:50 -0700 Reply-To: "Batson, Dale N" Sender: HPLX Mailing List From: "Batson, Dale N" Subject: Re: Short battery life in an upgraded 200lx MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Bob, I have a DS 96MB 200LX and its battery life has been pretty close to yours.
