Subject:      Help with HP110
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I have acquired an old HP110 laptop computer. I've been told it works,
but there are no instructions at all - I cannot even find the ON-OFF
switch (is it some key combination? - or am I just not looking in the
right area?).

Also, I think it has an internal battery (probably dead! - but perhaps
it is possible to rebuild/replace the cells) but I assume it can also
run on AC power. If yes, what input voltage does it accept? I hope that
the power in socket will accept 220-240VAC (as in Australia, where I
live). None of the sockets are marked, although their purpose seems
obvious.

If I can get it to start up on AC, I doubt I'll need further help - I
still remember DOS! and I have great faith in HP's construction quality
(at least until recent years).

Any help would be appreciated (I was planning to use it with my trusty
64MB, clock doubled HP200LX for backup etc, and as a LAN gateway - I
hope it can be more than a boat anchor!).  I recall someone on this list
saying they had used a HP110.

I assume that you want to connect to the inernet on your Windows desktop,
download your email there, copy it to your palmtop, read, edit and answer, and then
copy it back to your desktop for mailing to the internet. This is posible.
It is a bit of work toset it up but once it works it is no problem. The first thing
you need is NOT to use Outlook as your email client as it doesnt export folders
in a format that the palmtop can read (I mean if you have Outlook why would you
want to export right?). If you are willing to give up on outlook, there are
a number of solutions. I think on Super there is a program which will convert
Eudora mailbox files into Unix mailbox files which can be reead using pnr (and
cclxpop?) on the palmtop. If you want more details just ask!

Thanks for your response Quinton; ITried your suggestion, but I didnt have
much luck.  After trying to re-enter my login & password several times,I was
able to get things going without using a script.  Seems AT&T has a special
way of encoding the login name and password, and that's what the main hangup
was, it appears.  I had entered the encoded login & password initially, but
I must have made an error typing it in.  Anyway, as you can see, I'm rollin'
now!

Seems like a neat program...I think I'll have 'em "wrap one up" for me!

Thanks again for your interest & help,

Once I understood the uses of Ctrl-Enter I've been using it
daily.  The program does do exactly what I need in a PIM.

I am an avid "listmaker."  Being able to tie the lists and

I don't think that such a piece of software exists, but maybe
I can help you: The converter DJPEG.EXE by the Independant
JPEG Group allows you to convert any JPEG into BMP or GIF.
DJPEG allows you to scale, color reduce and dither the image.

However my version only allows to downscale and color reduce to
at most 256 colors. That is: no black and white output and no
larger output. But maybe an improved version is available.

This reduces your problem to printing a (color) BMP to a black
and white printer. Because BMP is the simplest picture format
around, you should consider writing a software which dithers
the colored BMP and outputs the bitmap to your printer.

By the way: DJPEG is used by the Arachne browser to display
JPEGs: It first converts a JPEG into BMP and then displays the
BMP. But as I said before, it cannot output in B&W, hence
Arachne cannot display the image in CGA mode. That's the main
reason, why Arachne does not support images under CGA mode
on the palmtop.

DJPEG works, but not very fast. To convert a VGA JPEG
image may take minutes; another good reason why Arachne
disabled this feature on slow CGA machines.

Would it be possible to use LXPIC to convert the JPEG into a B&W PCX file
and then print that out?

I'm trying to use a 200LX with a Trans Digital parallel
Port Card to access a Zip Drive (100M).

Trans Digital tested the card and cable and found both OK.

I've tried it with 2 different Zip drive units  and 2
different versions of guest.exe, neither will assign a
drive letter.

Maybe it's because I have the 32M RAM upgrade.

Has anyone done this with the an upgraded unit?  If so,
could you tell me what your autoexec.bat & config.sys look like?

Also, does anyone have Mack's e-mail address; he might have
a clue.

Thanks.

Ron

Does DJPEG.EXE run on a palmtop?

Should be relatively simple, right. The JPEG part should be the most
difficult.

Hmmm. LXPIC can dither and connvert to PCX. PCX format isn't too bad
either. So maybe I should start there...

I prefer the 7x7 fine font, by Stefan Peichl. It can be found on his home

        I thuoght of using LXPIC to convert to PCX, then using VIEW
        from the BGFAX package to print...but I didn't think that
        combination would allow you to resize.

So in about a billion years MicroShaft may be a nice company.
I can't wait... :-)

Yes, Andreas is a human. He even plays the violin, though he
programs better... But I cannot say anything bad about it. On
my birthday one year, he called me up and played a Corelli
piece for me on the phone :-) (I think it was Corelli, and he
said so...<g>)

I just used the following in London:

ÝCIS-UK¨
FIFO=1
Port=2
OmniGo=0
PPP=1
Modem=1
Baud=38400
My_IP=0.0.0.0
DNS_IP=149.174.211.5

Script=CIS_Script
Login=
Password=
ModemInit=ATl0m0
Dial=ATDT9,0845 080 1000

The number is for CIS UK, they have a single number billed as
a local call. I called from the hotel, requiring a 9, as you
can see. Worked with no troubles. I used an Apex modem, but
there is nothing holy about it. The script is unchanged! It
was last used on July 4 1999.

May I remind you of the Beetle? Mostly pretty ugly and silly
looking. It attracted lots of new customers. The secret was in
capitalizing on the given features. The ads were extolling its
ugliness, making it completely acceptable.

The faling of the 200LX is only imaginary. It sold a huge
number over the years. It failed to sell 5 times as many
because HP has this notion that its products are _obvious_.
They are not necessarily so to the outsider.

When I purchased my first 100LX, the CompUSA counter person
asked me why I want such an expensive organizer, they had
better priced Sharps, Canons, Panasonics, whatever...

Two months later, when I stopped by to look for PCMCIA cards,
I also showed him VR, a few small programs I wrote, my
restructured phonebook, and three Lotus spreadsheets. His
eyes opened waaaaaay wide! He purchased one that day. He
still uses a 200LX today DS and 64MB. He also started showing
the machine much differently to customers, seeking out the
right audience. HP spent about $0.14 total in their
advertising campaign for the 200LX. They probably spent more
money on WinCE ads than the ENTIRE REVENUE from the 200LX.
IMHO, stupid choice (and I think we probably agree on that
point.)

I recall pretty much a division in the posts on HPHAND at the
time. Some of the people thought the 200LX was sexy and a
great adfance over the dull, boring, "industrial-looking"
100LX plain, black box. Others thought the 200LX's color was
anything from emerald to "puke" green/grey - unappetizing,
stupid, ugly. There were other opinions in between and outside
those ranges. It was a massive group of threads! :)

I agree with you, the color is easier to get used to, no
matter where in the spectrum of opinions you are, because the
functionality lures you into ignoring the wrapper.

The 49G I saw in England reminded me of the discussions: It
was weird, it was ugly?, it was beautifu? it was strange? - it
was all of these. I think we spent about 37 seconds on that
and then we all wanted to know what it looks _inside_ -
function, speed, screen attributes etc...

If HP decides to make a floral cover for a 200LX sequel with a
486 inside etc - then I'll get used to floral designs! I can
even get used to day-glo lime green - just give me the
functionality! :-)

(Hmmmm... What it would look like in a staid business meeting:
Suits all around, ties, biztalk in measured tones. And then
there is me with my dayglow lime green PDA! Arrrrgggggghhhh!
Maybe I should start wearing more often my favorite shirt -
collarless - meaning no tie, which generally means no jacket,
which means people will _expect_ a dayglow lime-green PDA! :-¨

Seems like a strange enjoyment. Lithiums explode EXTREMELY
violently. They can maim, hurt, and kill people when they
explode. I derive no pleasure out of seeing it, or even
imagining it. Sorry to not share this "fun" :-( with you...
It is a dangerous practice to charge Lithium batteries.

I am not sure I understand this question. Can you explain what

the time to analyze the documentation. It's a good start.

Not directly. But since there is no actual standard for how to encode
appointments in CSV anyway, no application can do that directly anyway.

Depending on how such a file looks, it might be easy to convert it into
something that PIM understands using search and replace and/or macros:
CSV is just plain text and what PIM/PE needs is just plain text.

That may be related to the problem.  The connectivity/sync
software for the 620LX may be grabbing ahold of the COM2 on
your desktop and interfering with or preventing other programs
from using it.  Perhaps the one time the 200LX was able to
communicate was because the 620 software was disbled.

In a word, everything. <grin>  I am assuming you mean the 12
volts external power connection.  This external power is
changed in the power conversion circuits to do everything the
2 AA batteries do.  But it is done differently.  The 2.2-3.1
volts of the AA's is converted up to 5 volts for the
electronics and the PCMCIA slot, +9 and -9 volts for the
RS-232 and 12 volts for the PCMCIA slot, and maybe some other
stuff, who knows.  The 12 external volts has to be converted
down to those same voltages and it has to run the battery
charger.

I have a similar setup to your and have basically given up
working on a solution because of time. Your work has been of
extraordinary benefit for me. I suspect several others too!
(Thanks also to Bob, Andreas, Logden, and a few others whose
names now escape me - all have been instrumental to _solve_ a

Hi gang -

Here's an assortment of cool X-Finder stuff you might like...

1 CLOSING FILER.  Use the %o parameter in finder.env -

#Opening action
%o  ,     ,$t Filer         #Close Filer on launch

2 LONG FILE NAMES.  If you have long names assigned, and want to copy
or move the files, XF will create or modify the _.xfn file in the
target directory so the long names move along with the files.

3 ARRANGING ICON ORDER.  Default sort order is alphanumeric.  If you
keep this, you need to come up with some cockamamie names to put 'em in
the order you want.  Try using reverse time/date sort.  That way the
new additions come at the end, and you can use the XF time/date stamp
editing feature to change the date to move the icons.

4 FULL-SCREEN GUI.  You can set up additional full-screen GUI launchers
(like /Palmtop} by creating a directory with a caret (¬) in the name.
e.g.  GAMES¬   An interesting thing I just noticed, is that if this
directory has subdirectories, they automatically become full-screen
GUIs too.


More later...

It should work. It contains the same type of "modem" as the Nokia 8810.
But the only way to make sure is to test it. Iw ill borrow a S25 next
week and test it.

I have done a preliminary test to see if the sms/robotlx script worked.
And it did not. But I guess we (me and Andreas) could get it to work
with some tweaking of the scripts bacause the h200 did Talk with the
Siemens S25.

What do the the S25 cost down there? Here it is about 3000 ,- nok which
is approx 3000/4.5 dmark ..

I will do some test and report to the list..

The answer is yes. REXX from IBM DOS7 works fine on my 200.
The interpreter is only about 80K. It can be easily sucked off
the install diskettes without having to take the rest of DOS7,
and seems to work fine under DOS 5.

I understand Qercus REXX also works on the 200, but although
I have downloaded the demo, I haven't tried it yet.

I think any key turns it on.

Yes it will accept 220-240VAC.  However, the battery I am sure is dead.  The
unit runs off the battery and I imagine this 1985 units' battery is way
gone, so the AC adapter won't do you any good until you get the battery
replaced.  I know it is possible, but I don't remember the details, about
taking the battery unit apart and replacing the batteries.

<<If I can get it to start up on AC, I doubt I'll need further help - I

It was a wonderful machine -- like the 95LX but bigger.  However, as I said
you will need to replace the battery.  (We had a publication for 6 years
called THE PORTABLE PAPER which just focused on the HP110 and later the HP
Portable Plus, very much like our THE HP PALMTOP PAPER focus on the 95LX and
then the 100LX/200LX.)

<<Any help would be appreciated (I was planning to use it with my trusty

There is limited memory on the HP110  -- I think 512K or 1024K.  It was the
first DOS portable -- but not IBM compatible.

Andreas,

I, like a lot of other people it seems, am looking for the holy
grail of ToDo managers.

In the built in ToDo list, as well as priority (a field) and
due date (a field) I also begin the description with a two
letter code. The first is location and the second a category.
If a task can only be accomplished in the office, it begins
'O', if it's a telephone call, it becomes: 'OT Tell customer
to boil his fat head', for example.

If I have to invoice someone, the second letter is an 'I'. This
way, when I see that I have an invoice that needs producing
urgently, I can scan the second column for more 'I's and get
them out of the way at the same time.

I realise that using PE/PIM this can be implemented easily and
more effectively, but I thought I might mention location/task
type in case it had been completely overlooked.

The price here in germany is about 600,-- to 650,-- DM.

I have one and i tried allready to use it with WWW/LX
Infraredconnection (com=3D-1). www/lx starts - recognise the mobilphone
(says something about the "S 25") and then breaks up the connection
before dialing.

I would like to help but i have no idea what i can improve in my
www.cfg.

Pete

I think the list tolerates problems, even looks forward to solving
them.

You mentioned Buddy.  Buddy sometimes does strange things to the serial
port.  Try REMing out buddy in Autoexec.bat & try the printing again.
If the problems continue post your Autoexec.bat & Config.sys files to
the list to see if they see anything unusual.    =Bob=

Gee, I don't know why.  I am seeing only one of my messages on the

a complex setup with Buddy & SC.     =Bob=

Andreas,

I don't know if it would effect JEPG printing or not, but the base
Pocketjet has 512K memory and I could not print out a whole page from
Streets98 from the OB 800.  I also remember a user trying to print out
tax forms had to upgrade to 2 megs memory to print whole pages
properly.  In my case about 1/2 page printed & just stopped.  JEPG's
smaller that 1/2 page might do fine.  I am interested in what you find.

Hi Ron

I have two 200LX's, a 6MEG & an 8MEG and _both_ work with my Trans
Digital card to connect to a stand-alone ZIP drive.

My CONFIG.SYS file is as follows:

device=\spd31.exe
buffers=20
files=30
lastdrive=J

There is nothing in my AUTOEXEC.BAT which has any bearing on using the
ZIP drive.

I wrote the following batch file because occasionally I have to
re-boot which destroys the ZIP drive setup. I got tired of looking in
the Trans Digital manual for the instructions every time (you do have
the manual, don't you?).

I created a directory on my C: drive called IOMEGA which contains
ASPIPPM1.SYS, GUEST.EXE, GUEST.INI, and NIBBLE.ILM. I don't remember
if all these files are necessary but both the GUEST files are.

Hi folks -

I'm not sure if it's dependant on the sending software or the list
defaults, but my To: line usually includes both the list and the sender
of the original message.  Bob - I think you'll probably get 2 of
this...

I suppose this is a question for our resident "X-philes" Peniel & QMan:

        - I seem to have a problem when I switch back to my SC Work
        Area running X-Finder: the text under all the ICONS is
        "jibberish". If I cycle thru the modes w/ Fn-SPACE, the problem
        seems to correct it self. It does not correct itself however if

I have been palying a bit w/ HP-IRDA(jeteye) driver. According to the
description on SUPER:

> HP-IRDA is a utility that will allow you to print from DOS programs

Does this imply you can load the driver in indivdual SC workareas, not
from CONFIG.SYS?

Also there is a file JETUTIL.EXE in the archive, but no description of
its function...anyone know what this does? (I supose I could just run
it, but I'm paranoid)

Some time ago there was a thread regarding some folk who got file
corruptions
in their phone.pdb any time the computer was re-booted while that file
was
open.

I know, I was one of them.

Good news. I have discovered why!

Thanks to Curtis Cameron's DBCHECK, I discovered that there were errors
in
my phone.pdb.

I tried for some time to eliminate them. Eventually by marking all
records and
exporting to a new file, that new file was ok (almost)

Then by some lucky hunch (after backing up) I re-booted with phone open.

No error - no problem!

This must be why the problem affected some, while not others. I remember

several back and forths with Avi, while we tried to discover why he had
no
problem, but I did.

Thanks Curtis!

P.S. Curtis, are you there? I am still getting "Error : Note field has
illegal character"
My file is NOT password protected. How can I find and fix the problem?

I have a zip drive that I use on my laptop. I have to reboot with the
cable and
zip drive all attached to get it to work.

Likely unrelated (plug & play sort of stuff) but worth a try.

If I remember right, there was a reset button under the battery cover,
next to the battery. I'm sure the battery is dead by now, but it's
worth a shot.

I also have some Pascal programs (for TP3.0) which are written for the
Portable Plus; I don't know if they run on the plain Portable, but if
you want them you can have them.

Yes. I think the driver ends with .sys extension what you need to do is rename it
to the .com extension then you can load it using .bat files.

It just unloads the driver for you.

You do know that only ONE SPECIAL PCMCIA MODEM worked in the HP95.  I
don't recall its name.  So it is not just the speed/baud issue but you
need that particular modem for use in the 95.

As suggested, an external modem will work as long as you can set it to
ignore, was it, dtr or some such.  Sometimes that had to be done on a
different computer as you can't do it on the 95.

I have trouble believing this.  Are you speaking of the non-rechargeable
AA lithium batteries, or something else?  If the AA batteries, I have
trouble believing that something that small could explode with enough
force to kill somebody.  If something else, like a bigger laptop battery,
then never mind.  But I have successfully charged several lithium AA
batteries without so much as a "pop."  Not saying it won't happen or even
that it is unlikely, but if the charging is done properly (i.e. NOT in the
200LX, but with a special 1.5V 30ma parallel charging circuit) there seems
to be no danger of lithium AA batteries exploding.

Hi Big AL,

The only real fix is to get the latest SC update. Its 7.02 or 7.03.
I had the same problem and I was using SC 7.0.
Since I never got the update, I stopped using SC all together. (:-Ý

Subject:      Looking for someone with a non-Accton HP200LX ethernet card
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Stefan, Mack & I are working on a new version of LXCIC which will
handle both Modem and Ethernet cards in the one driver (including code
that allows you to power-off the palmtop in the middle of an Ethernet
connection and everything picks up where it left off when you turn the
power back on).  Stefan has also made the code modular so that support
for other types of cards (e.g. parallel port) can be added as soon as
someone works out how to drive those cards.

I've now finished the ethernet code (based on code that Mack wrote for
ether.com, and the source code from LXEN2216.COM Ýto be released
soon¨, and verified against the datasheets for the 8390 NIC chip), and
it seems to work for my Accton EN2216 card (which is based on the 8390
NIC chip).  I now want to beta test it with other ethernet cards that
work in the HP200LX (e.g. the Silicom card), in case they use some
other incompatible NIC chip.

So, if you have a non-Accton ethernet card, and you're willing to
alpha test a new version of LXCIC, then please email me.

Also, if you're willing to beta test the new lxcic.com and the new
lxen2216.com packet driver with an Accton ethernet card, then please
email me.

Once testing is complete, Stefan will release version 2.0 of LXCIC.COM
and I will release version 1.0 of LXEN2216.COM for general use.

One thing I've haven't gotten much into on my LX is the 123 application.
This past weekend I started playing around with it a bit, and reading
some documentation.

I was wondering if there is a repository of .WK1 files somewhere that
LX'ers have written? I looked on SUPER, but only found a couple there.

Ok, now what do I do?   I downloaded all of the X-Finder pieces from

does not display the correct icon's for many of the files and applications.
My main concern is the icons for applications, such as the icon for the
appointment book is displayed as the default icon, that is the sheet of
paper with the folded corner.  I have tried to follow the instructions for
adding an icon as shown in the users manual, section 8, but the new icon
still displayed as the default icon.  I even went so far as to start over
and install one piece of X-Finder at a time, but nothing helped.  I don't
know what to do from here, any help will be appreciated.  You can respond
directly to me or to the list, but responses to the list will take a while

Hi John -

Hmmm - lets see...

1 Where are you putting your icons?  Best place (and IIRC the default)
is c:\_dat\icon.lzh

2 After you add the icon do you hit F1 (Init)?  This is needed before
new icons will show.

3 Do your new icons have the same name (except extension) as the xf?
file that starts your app?

> I have tried to follow the instructions for
> adding an icon as shown in the users manual, section 8, but the new =
icon
> still displayed as the default icon.

See 2 & 3 above.  Check in icon.lzh to verify that your icons are
there.  If they are, then be sure the names are correct.

Aha! - just reread section 8 - and I think I see what went wrong.

Mime-Version: 1.0

This is a warning to OB800 owners in this group.

My 8 month old 800CT has begun having sporadic problems with power.  Once it
failed to turn off after being unplugged from AC, and twice in the last month,
it failed to turn on after being plugged into AC (talk about temperamental), and
ignored repeated hard resets (pencil in the side) before finally coming back
after 2 hours for no apparent reason.

In all cases, power management settings were confirmed as correct (once the
system came back) and I swapped batteries and power supplies (all HP brand) in
case the problem was with those.

In the cases where the system failed to start until after 2 hours, the first
thing I noticed (after finally restarting) was that the battery level indicator
was full.  In all cases, I noticed a marked slowdown in response on the unit,
especially in starting programs.  Sometimes the ON/OFF button would take 5 mins
to shut down the system (normally takes under 5 secs).  Thought this was related
to use of a Megahertz modem/LAN card, but that shouldn't affect the operation of
the hard reset.

Sending the OB back to HP for warranty service... but thought I'd mention this
in case you others might begin seeing this too.  Don't know if they can fix it,
as the problem is intermittent... but I'm hoping this is a known defect with a
solution so I don't have to deal with a major breakdown after my 1 year warranty
expires in December.

Depends on how you use it. I start PIM when I need to find a free time
slot. And I start it when I want to check what's up. Most other stuff
(e.g. entering new tasks, taking notes) I do in PE.

Definitely! Save the time to "see the result". And if you do a certain
sequence of keys a lot, use a macro for that.

PE only needs that much time if it was modified since the last time you
used it. Otherwise, it takes far less than a second. Also, you can use
the Search feature (Ctrl-S or F4) to search for a text in a file.

I guess it depends on how the program feeds the printer. If it
downloads all data and then completes the print command, it will
certainly overflow. If it prints line by line (or chunks of lines) it
should work. Did not have the time to experiment yet...

I wonder if this is really something that is used to sort the tasks. I
also use stuff like private/business or delegated (somebody else does
the task for me). For those attributes I use categories in PIM. These
categories let me define views, e.g. when I press "p" I see all private
tasks, when I press "d", I see all delegated tasks etc. The "priority
sorting" then takes place *within* those views.

Would you use the attributes you mentioned to sort the list of tasks?

Subject:      1 year with the LX
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

About little over a year ago I decided I wanted a handheld computer. The
one that caught my eye was the Libretto 50CT. I researched it, joined a
mailing list, and waited for funds to become available so I could buy
one.

Someone on the Libretto list mentioned Thaddeus in passing, and so I
checked out the site. This got me somewhat interested in the 200LX.

After several months, it became apparent that I wasn't going to have the
cash to purchase a Libretto any time soon. So I sort of put the handheld
computer thing on hold. Then one day I stopped in at a local 2nd hand
computer parts store, and they happened to have a used 200LX for sale
for $175.00.
This was affordable, and I was fairly interested in the LX, so I
"settled" for that instead of the Libretto.

That was about a year ago. I just want to say that I have been DELIGHTED
with my 200LX (I have since upgraded to a DS 32Mb unit). I no longer
feel that I "settled" for anything. The LX perfectly meets my
wants/needs for a handheld computer! I use it every day, and have it
with me _constantly_!

I really enjoy the "community" of LX users on this list, and hope to be
an LX user for a long time to come! Too bad HP decided to discontinue
this terrific little machine. Seems like they just sold their soul to
M$.  : (

Steve,

I have a very simple shopping database that I've created in 123 that
uses several macros and the data query function.

My reason for creating the database is that I do most of the shopping in
our family at grocery, warehouse club, hardware store and other places.
I got frustrated (especially in the grocery store) with getting all done
and then realizing that I'd missed one item that was at the front of the
store because it was at the bottom of the list.

I use a spreadsheet to create a list from a database (in the same 123
file) then tick off items by deleting the item name from the list while
I shop with my 200.

Thus far, I'm the only person I've ever seen in a grocery store using a
palmtop as a shopping list.

If you or anyone else is interested in the file, send me an email and
I'll send it to you.  If this has value beyond me, I'll make it (or a
modified version) available.

Regards,

L. Brooks

******  FILE DESCRIPTION  ******

The columns in the database section are:
  BUY      X to select item, blank to ignore
  QTY      quantity
  STORE    select the store
  AISLE    useful especially in a grocery store.  Examples include
produce,
            dairy, hardware, etc.
  ITEM     actual item description
  NOTE     used to make notes on best price, etc.

The macros are:
  ALT-R    Resets database (clears all Xs from the items)  columns F-K
  ALT-C    Clears the shopping list section  columns A-E
  ALT-L    Create new shopping list.  Does a data query on the database
section
            and creates a new list based on the selections made in the
BUY column
  ALT-M    Goto the Macro area
  ALT-N    Insert a new item in the database.
  SORT     Sorts List by ITEM (ALT-I), STORE (ALT-S), AISLE (ALT-A)
            or sorts database (ALT-D) by AISLE then ITEM.

  HOME     Takes you to A1 in 123 which lists the macros.

Math Programs

For the last issue of The HP Palmtop Paper in this millenium, I'm plannin=

to focus on the math programs that are known to work on the HP Palmtop. =


As I see it, math programs fall into three categories: Calculators (e.g. =
HP
Calc), Spreadsheets (e.g. 123), Solvers, sometimes called "equation
parsers" (e.g. HP Solve, TK, Mercury, Derive, etc.) and math languages
(e.g. APL, StatPac, SPSS). =


If you've used any such program(s) would you do me a favor and fill in th=
e
following form for each of them. My Perl script will try to digest the in=

The unit works OK now, which tells me the hard disk is not too bad...SCANDISK
can't find any problems... and if the disk is in sufficient condition to boot
and pass SCANDISK, it's not likely to be the cause of the hard-reset failure,
IMO.

In the cases where that happened, the unit is plugged in to AC, but the power
light on the OB stays off (when it's working OK, it turns red, then green in 2
secs), and the ON/OFF button fails to start the unit.   Pressing the hard-reset
switch with a pencil several times elicits NO response (not even a boot failure
message on the screen... the screen remains blank.  Even a catatrophic hard disk
or controller failure should get to the BIOS messages.

I haven't tried updating the Win 95 stuff.  Too many things that can (and do) go
wrong, especially with my GUI-challenged brain.

Steve,

One additional spreadsheet that I have is to track my vehicle's actual
vs. allowable lease mileage.

No macros.

You enter in the current date and mileage.  The results are
 o  %Lease complete (time)
 o  Running % of lease target
 o  Target miles
 o  Miles over or under the target

Let me know if you are interested.  I created this one primarily to kill
time while waiting at stop lights and to learn how to use the @DATE
function.

I am using the Trans Digital PC Card and a Pentax Pocketjet printer with
my DS 32 Meg 200LX.

Has anyone found a way to print directly to the printer inlieu of having to
print to a file and then sending that file to the printer?

TIA,

Andreas,

I could be all wet on this, but I thought that PCL3 (laserjets) are
"page" printers and deskjets were more like "line" printers.  So, in
that reguard the PCL3 emulation might be restrictive.  Still, I hope
you are right about how the programs feeds the printer information.

I'll have to second that recommendation.  The caveat is that it's not very
"snazzy" looking; just plain black nylon.  However, it's very durable and
the belt clip is VERY secure.  I purchased it after my LX slipped out of
my suit coat pocket and onto the STREET!  Fortunately, it was not run
over.  Now my appearance confirms that I am a nerd, but at least my
palmtop is safe.
There is a Velcro flap that covers the top of the case which you can flip
backwards into your pants or tuck into the case itself (a snug fit for the
LX, but still works well) if you don't want to repeatedly open and close
it, or you are in a quiet situation where the "Rrripp!" of Velcro would be
embarrassing.

Cheers.

This does not sound good. There is not much tweaking to do with the
www.cfg or the post.cfg. The setup I had working for the Nokia 8810
should work with the S25 too. I changed the port=-1 and also sat the
speed to 9600. There is not much more that can be done.

I got a mail from a company today which gives me the option to
pre-order the Nokia 7110. So I guess (hope) it is just around the
corner. If the S25 does not work maybe the 7110 will..?

I will nevertheless borrow a S25 and report on the errormessages.

Loran,

I have been experimenting with Shop Assistant from SUPER and
have abandoned it as it increases shopping time instead of
shortening it.

Therefore I had in mind to do a spreadsheed with LOTUS. I
would appreciate very much if you sent me the sheet to see if
it fits my needs.

Thank you very much
best regards

That's fine David. Just don't go out there telling everyone it

That may make purchasing a PC-DOS7 package worthwhile all by
itself! I can also use the decent DOS on some old desktops...

I understand it limits your cmd files to 50 statements in the

PC-DOS7, for that matter...

I wouldn't dream of it.  All I'll say is I've recharged them several
times, with no problems.  But it's not worth it, as the capacity is never
as high with recharged non-rechargeables.

My curiosity has flared up now.  Tonight I will set up a battery charger
with a dead lithium AA and see what happens.  There's nothing of value in
the garage right now anyway.  <g>

Hi Russell,

I sent you some info. on TaskBar last week and it was rejected by your ISP.

So if the only way that you can get is through the List, let me know and I'll
post here. The doc is less than a page.

Any objections!

I have also had my LX (just a 100, though) about a year.  Before that
I had a first gen WinCE HPC, then an Omnigo.  My husband and kids
were betting on how long before I'd want a different palmtop. Ha!
Now all I want are peripherals. <g>

BTW, I ordered a 40 meg San Disk card for Patrick West's source and
it is fun having some elbow room. ;-)

        How about sending it to SUPER (so we can all see what your are

Yes, the demo is limited to programs of 50 lines but those lines can be
1000 characters long.  You can chain multiple rexx statements together
on a line by separating them with a semi-colon (";").  This allows a
program of a pretty good size to be run by the demo (although it won't
be too readable in its crunched form).

    Hello Andreas,

I think the obvious choice is to use Graphics.com TSR from full
MS-DOS or IBM -DOS 5.0 (not in HPLX ROM) with LxPic to
print JPEGs in large. Result will cover app. 55% of a LGL/A4
page in landscape orientation.

I have another guess too, do you have a working e-mail
address (that .CH postbox doesn't work)? Contact me.

             Sincerely Yours: Tamas Feher.

Has anyone ever given any thought to writing some type of software that
would render the power button on the LX harmless? What I mean is that
occasionally when online and using Lynx I accidentally hit the on/off =
button
instead of the arrow keys thereby turning off the LX :( It would be cool =

have some little program which amybe some kind of hotkey combonation that
would make the power button not function until the correct key combination

It may look like the battery or the AC connection, but you'll find that even
if you replace the battery the same problem will recur.  I assume you've also
tried switching between HP's power management and MS's.  There's some kind of
corruption in the system files that is causing this.  You're taking a chance
putting data on this box.  I'd tell HP to take it back.

While we're on the topic...

How about the opposite?

Some programs (usually games) do this when they run, which is a little
annoying at times.  Is there some kind of TSR or something which will
/prevent/ this from happening?

Sorry if I interrupted, Jeff.

I, too have created a little shopping list  management spreadsheet for
123 and use it every time I go shopping - very handy.  I created it as a
shopping list and to keep track of how much we spend.  I mark the items
I've gotten by entering the price and quantity.  I also have a column
for the number of items, so that I can quickly determine if I should go
tothe express lane.

Loran;  I would be interested in what yours is like (so send me a copy
off the list) and would be willing to share mine with any one who is
interested.

        Steve,

        I have a very simple shopping database that I've created in 123
that
        uses several macros and the data query function.

        My reason for creating the database is that I do most of the
shopping in
        our family at grocery, warehouse club, hardware store and other
places.
        I got frustrated (especially in the grocery store) with getting
all done
        and then realizing that I'd missed one item that was at the
front of the
        store because it was at the bottom of the list.

        I use a spreadsheet to create a list from a database (in the
same 123
        file) then tick off items by deleting the item name from the
list while
        I shop with my 200.

        Thus far, I'm the only person I've ever seen in a grocery store
using a
        palmtop as a shopping list.

        If you or anyone else is interested in the file, send me an
email and
        I'll send it to you.  If this has value beyond me, I'll make it
(or a
        modified version) available.

        Regards,

        L. Brooks

        ******  FILE DESCRIPTION  ******

        The columns in the database section are:
          BUY      X to select item, blank to ignore
          QTY      quantity
          STORE    select the store
          AISLE    useful especially in a grocery store.  Examples
include
        produce,
                    dairy, hardware, etc.
          ITEM     actual item description
          NOTE     used to make notes on best price, etc.

        The macros are:
          ALT-R    Resets database (clears all Xs from the items)
columns F-K
          ALT-C    Clears the shopping list section  columns A-E
          ALT-L    Create new shopping list.  Does a data query on the
database
        section
                    and creates a new list based on the selections made
in the
        BUY column
          ALT-M    Goto the Macro area
          ALT-N    Insert a new item in the database.

                    or sorts database (ALT-D) by AISLE then ITEM.

If my experience was typical, you will find it to be an enormous
PITA. My Palm III was so small in comparison that it wouldn't carry
any significant part of what I carry on my 200. I ended up giving
my Palm III to a friend who, I fear, found it equally useless.

As far as transfer was concerned, it was not difficult, but it did
require going thru a Windows machine.

If you are interested in a full size keyboard to plug into your 200LX
that will fold up and fit into your pocket........

Goto: "igocorp.com" and look up item # 45183.

It is a full size keyboard that is approximately 1/8" thick and rolls up
into a 60 mm tube. Weighs 10 oz and cost $99.

Yeah, SLEEPON by Stefan Peichl can often help re-enable the ON/OFF button
on the 200LX.  It was designed to allow programs like Win3.0, which seize
the keyboard, to use light sleep mode and not keep the 200LX on all the
time.  It usually works, but sometimes not... Works 3.0 for DOS is one it
doesn't work with, IIRC.

I would also like to have a TSR that overrides a program that will not
allow the 200 to shut itself off.

I use Info Select in a SC window and of all the programs that I use, it
is the only one that will not allow the 200 to shut off by itself except
on rare occasions.

I tried Andreas Gazotto's Screen Saver program to switch to another SC
window, but it also only works occasionally.


TIA

It seemed to me that SHASS was more designed for a desktop, where you
could print out your shopping list before you left.  It didn't seem to me
like it was designed to aid during the actual shopping.  I started work on

I'm glad that it worked for you.

I've just posted a new version of DBCHECK to http://cameron.hplx.net.
It now has an option to dump out lots of data about the file, so you
could use this to figure out which note record has an illegal
character (a note with a data byte of 00 or FF is illegal). Then you
could use a hex editor to fix it, or you could delete the offending
character in the database app.

I've just posted a new version of DBCHECK on http://cameron.hplx.net

DBCHECK is a program which checks your LX data files for corruption.
It's been enhanced to look for more problems, thanks to people sending
me their corrupted data files.

It also has a new "dump" option to print out lots of details about the
database, so you can potentially use it to figure out how to fix a
corrupted file.

This time, in case anyone is interested, I've included the TP7 source
code.

Thanks, Curtis. I ran the new version against all my ?db files. The
world.wdb file shows this error:

WORLD.WDB:
1 db header, 1 card def
1 categories, 21 fields defined
2 view point defs, 2 view point tables
1 smart clips, 1 lookup tables
0 data records, 0 with notes
478 lookup table entries flagged as deleted
Error: a view point table points to non-existent data records.
WORLD.WDB had errors.

I deleted this file and had it re-created automatically when I ran the
world time application - same error. The file has the default size of 6576
bytes. Do you also get a similar result??

Anand.

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Experimenting with different setups for IR for DOS printing on
the HP200LX I found the following:

1) An irjeteye installation, via Config.sys and/or via
Autoexec.bat (renaming the file to *.com, thanks John M.)
including the setting of the Serial port and switching to IR,
the setting of COM1 and the rerouting of the printer output
to COM1,

CANNOT BE USED IN SC WORK AREAS.

That is, the individual work areas have to have at least some
of these commands in the startup list instead of in the
Autoexec.bat. (I have not checked which).

2) The group of commands can be automatically invoked either
by including it into the startup command list of the workarea
or manually through a batch file just before printing, as
there might be a cost in battery life (as Steve Staloff
hinted).

3) The cost is, however, minimal. Hooking the 200LX to an
Ampere meter it turns out that after execution of the batch
file that powers the port, installs the IR driver etc. power
consumption increases by merely 2 milliamps, that is, from 52
mA to 54 mA (on my Ammeter). There is a trade-off between
the effort of calling the batch file and the 2mA power
consumption, which, I think, favors including the group into
the SC commands.

Regards
Winfried

PS: As interesting as this may be, the SENSATIONAL NEWS,
however, is: while writing away with PE, I am currently
consuming 58 mA. Switching to MEMO in Work Area 1, the
Ammeter plummets to 24 mA, increasing slightly while typing.
That means, every word I have been writing with PE over the
years and every appointment with PIM, every telephone number
looked up, I could have had for around 50% of the cost using
Sysmgr <g>.

For cost conscious people, however, as the Ammeter shows,
there is a way out: when pausing to write, just press SHIFT,
that pulls consumption down to 24 milliamps just as in Memo
(if no card inserted).

Curtis,
I downloaded your new dbcheck and the /d did give me a lot of data,
but I'm not sure what I am looking for.
I got out a disk editor and searched for 0 FF. there were many of each.
The header was full of them and FF FF started each new record.
But I didn't find any in a note. Doesn't mean that I didn'e miss it.
Since your program knows that an illegal character exists in a note,
isn't there a way to report which note that is?

Your new dbcheck did report errors that had not previously been cleaned
up, but I didn't know where to find them.
I scrolled through the output text of the /d and found one blank line
amongst all the other locations. I re-opened the phone file and cut
and pasted that record, then marked all records, extracted to a new
file and checked that new file. All errors were gone except for the
illegal characters in the note file.

Bob

123 seems to use different commands on non-english versions. My 200LX has the
german version of 123 built-in. If I download a wk1 with macros and would like
to open it with my german 123, it tells me in german:

'Unbekannter Tasten/Bereichsname {...} (BB75)'

in english:

'unknown keys/blockname {...} (BB75)'

Is there a workaround or a translation tool?

Hi:

It depends ... (doesn't it always!).  I have a PalmV and a HP200LX, but haven't
tried duplication, just separating each for their strengths...

You should be able to use IntelliSync to set up a 3 way Sync with Schedule+,
using the native Palm Desktop conduits for Schedule+.  If you use Outlook or
Lotus Notes, you should look into bridging theIntelliSync 'gap' with a product
call Harmony (http://www.extendsys.com).

That is really just for PIM data.  For anything else, I don't really know (e.g.
Memos in either one).

Good Luck,

Mike

It sounds very much like you have an unreliable connection in the
power path.  Perhaps a cold solder joint where the DC power in
connector is soldered to the main PC board.

Use the desktop software that comes with the Palm to sync to Outlook
8.03/97/98, then sync your appointments, to-do's and contacts in Outlook to
the 200LX with the freeware available on SUPER (or with 'Intellijinx').

I had exactly the same symptoms with my OB800 within 2 months of
purchasing it. I sent it to HP who could find nothing wrong and sent it
back. By the time it got back to me it would not turn on - I sent it
back and they changed out the system board. Seems to me it must have
been a dry solder joint or something similar that could sometimes make
contact and sometimes not.

Cliff,

I have been printing from 123 to my printers since I have owned
my LX.  It is not a problem.  Never had to print like you are.
I use the 123 set-up for worksheet/global/default/printer settings
as:

interface
2 serial

baud
h 9600

page length
59

margins
l=3D4
r=3D80

set-up string
\027\069  (this resets to top of page for each page printed)

I would imagine that if you are using the TransDigital card that
you would use the interface of either 1 parallel 1 or 5 LPT1 and
find the baud rate from the TransDigital's manual to match either
the parallel or LPT1 interface.

Make sure each time you change your above settings, that you
select update when done, this store them permanently.  Each new
spreadsheet you create will have the updated settings, however I
believe that any spreadsheet you previously created will not have
the updated settings, and they will have to be done in /printer
settings, and then a file save will have to be done in order for
those new settings to be stored.

Hope this helps.  I print many sheets a day from my LX, but I use
a serial-to-parallel converter cable from Belkin's.

I thought I was the only one that this happens to on a
semi-regular basis.  I'm on the web browsing, and oops!!  Hit the
stupid off button again, only for a second, and the modem is so
unforgiving.  Must sign back on...again!

I would be interested also if there was such a program available.

I use 123 every week to do my shopping.  My spreadsheet is not
fancy, but I would love to help on a project, but I am not
a programmer at all, so don't know what I could do.  However I
usally have a lot of time that I could spend on it, if it was
something I could help with.

I have just started using macro, and a few @ functions in some of
my spreadsheets.  I have one that helps me plan my daily meals,
and how much insulin I need to cover those meals, and they are
working very well for me.  I have a few 123 manuals, and the time
to work on stuff, if I could help, let me know.

Well, if some guy (or girl :)) wants to decrease the size of minix, this is
the cookbook:

Get the Mack Baggette's minix for HP200LX at http://minix.hplx.net and unzip
it.
Open a command prompt window:
copy minix.mnx disk0.mnx # makes a copy for any future problems.
boot disk0.mnx # boot the new file.
=
login: root
Now delete anything what you guess that isn't usefull ;) be carefull !!!
example:
rm -r /usr/src/. # Deletes the source tree
df # to verify how many space left
shutdown # this will make the window freeze, but don't worry, just restart
the window.
Verify if it continues booting...
boot disk0.mnx
If ok, exit from minix and:
copy disk0.mnx disk0.new
mkfile ?M disk0.new # where '?' is the size you want in Mega.
Following is the copy of man usage of mkfile:
(http://www.cs.vu.nl/pub/minix/2.0.2/wwwman/man8/dosminix.8.html thanks
again to Mack Baggette).
boot disk0.mnx # Boot the old "disk"
ÝESC¨ Get the attention of the monitor
dosd5=disk0.new /dev/dosd5 becomes disk0.new
boot
...
login: root
part # Choose dosd5, move to the Size field of dosd7 partition, hit 'm' to
fill it out to the end of the "disk". Write and quit.
mkfs /dev/dosd7 # Recreate the file system
mount /dev/dosd7 /mnt
cpdir -v /usr /mnt # Copy /usr to the new disk's /usr to be shutdown Back to
the monitor exit Back to DOS
Now you have disk0.new of the size you want. Use it.
If I forgot something, please e-mail me !
I hope that you could understand me. My english isn't good, so... :))

No, I didn't get a picture.  That was the point of my post - I was looking

Cold solder joints or corrupted system files... the unit is already off to HP
Centralized Repair in Lincoln, CA.

Hopefully I've given them enough information to find the problem themselves.

I normally carried the OB in a backpack and perhaps the jarring that the LX
handles so well, is less tolerated by its big brother.

Thanks to all for the suggestions.

It sounds very much like you have an unreliable connection in the
power path.  Perhaps a cold solder joint where the DC power in
connector is soldered to the main PC board.

This message caused some giggles here, especially the part

Yep, I did it with an Engergizer lithium AA and a dummy battery, in a
standard nicad battery charger.  Having done it overnight, I can report
the following: the battery got pretty warm, and then next time I checked
it was stone cold and the light on the charger was off.  There is no
voltage at all present in the battery, so I assume something inside must
have burned through and shorted it out internally.  Sadly, there was no
explosion.  I'll have to try again with a fresh battery, and maybe strap a
G.I. Joe figure to the battery just in case.  <g>

Mack also made a smaller version without all the source code, and we're

password from Bill Childers (BILL!  WHERE ARE YOU?!  <g>).  I think it is
a mere 8MB when unzipped, so it should fit on a lot more machines.  Also,
with the current work being done on LXCIC and LXEN2216 and what not, we
may have the foundation for a network card driver for Minix on the

in the message body.  That way you can still send mail from both addresses
(just in case you ever need to use the old one again; not too likely with
the Compuserve switchover, but I'd leave it just in case) but will only
get mail sent to your new address.

The web interface to the list can be found at http://list.hplx.net.

When I use SHASS I only keep track of the items and which isle they are on. I
leave the price data blank. It took a few months but now I have a shopping list
which will sort by isle number. I've used it to zip through the grocery store,
palmtop in hand, to buy 30 to 40 items in just about ten minutes; because I
knew what isles to skip (I don't normally do the grocery shopping so haven't
memorized where things are). I guess I just hate to search the store for which
isle an item is on.

Good Day,
Owen

What I want to do is end up with a dual-version PAL/EXM program that will
keep a flat-file database of all the foods you have purchased.  When you
make up your shopping list, it will list it in a "todo"-like format, with
quantities and price, and keep a total at the bottom.  When you go to the
store, as you pick up each item, you just have to press a key (enter or
space bar or something) on that entry on the list to "check it off."  If
you buy additional things, you enter the description, quantity, and price,
and that gets added to the database for next time.  If prices have changed
on a particular item you can update it as you go. It keeps a running total
of how much you've spent so far, figuring in sales tax for taxable items
and what not, so that you know exactly how much money you're going to be
spending at the checkout.  Finally, as an option for those keeping track
of finances in Pocket Quicken, I'd like to have it automatically launch a
macro or something that would create the check in PQ.

Anybody see any glaring design problems or areas they could help in?

Had you not played all those video games as a child and watched violence =

First advice: be careful! My company just did the same thing to me, and I
ended up retiring my LX altogether. This could happen to you!

The key that made it work for me was that at the same time they got me a Vaio
Superslim laptop, 2.7lbs and tiny, significantly smaller than 8.5x11 (US
letter) and under an inch thick, so it just disappears into any briefcase.

So I've now got my main workstation with me, wherever I travel. It might not
be on my person every time I step away from the desk, it doesn't run for weeks
on a pair of batteries, and it's not a convenient form factor for reading
etexts while standing up on a crowded subway car, but the pilot can fill in
for those OK. The Vaio _does_ remove the urge to have a complete standalone
independant computer as my palmtop.

Wish I could help you in your quest for database conversion tools; I've yet to
locate good tools for encoding and decoding addressbook prc files.

Hi all,

Accurite's sent a price quotation for the double slot card
(149$) with the remark: "The DoubleSlot is compatible only
with HP 100LX and 200LX units that DO NOT  HAVE THE SPEED-UP
KIT INSTALLED."

How serious is this ? Many list members, most probably not all
with single speed machines, use the double slot.

Thank you for comments.

Winfried:

I use the DoubleSlot occassionally with my palmtop, and I have the
double-speed upgrade.  Here's the combinations that I've used
successfully:

FLASH-CARD/Ethernet
FLASH-CARD/Transdigital Parallel Port Card

I don't think I have used a modem in the upper slot, nor have I
tried two flash cards (that I can remember).  I've heard about
this disclaimer before, and don't understand it.  It could be
a driver problem, or maybe a unit-to-unit variation that causes
the problem.

        There does not appear to be an image on their WWW site, but I
        have a pic in my iGo catalog. It appears to be about the size
        of a regular full size keybd when unrolled, about 3/8" thick,
        another 3/8" thickness for keys(guessing from image). Has a PS2
        plug to connect to LapTop. I can snap a JPEG w/ my EPSON DigCam
        if any one is interested.

Hi George,

Your email accidentally got buried.

I use Quicken Ý6.0 for DOS¨ to write my checks and then send the
transactions to CheckFree.  I've never used CheckFree as a stand-alone.

"All you have to do" (as far as I remember) is go into your "Set
Preferences" Ýmenu item #6, at the opening screen¨; then "Electronic Payment
Settings" Ý#8¨; "Account Settings" Ý#2¨. Select the account you use for
CheckFree and it'll prompt you with a "Set up for electronic payment (Y/N):
".  This'll be followed by a screen for you to enter all your CheckFree

It cannot work if the timeout time for the palmtop is shorter than the
timeout time before SSAVER does its work.

These are not different kinds of tasks, but different states of tasks.
If they are not yet to be done, they are "future". On the day they pop
up, they become "pending", if you check them off, they become "done",
if you don't, they eventually become overdue. "undone" is a rolling
view, it shows the pending tasks at the point of time that is selected
("pending" always looks at the state *now*).

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

My thanks to anyone who gave their 0.02$ to this issue.The problem was that
my 200LX would not connect via the serial cable to my PC and register a
connection by means of TRANSFILE,the HP Connectivity Pack,LLRA ar DATA
Com.It simply gave the error message "unable to connect".
I knew something must be tying up the serial port(probably WIN CE
Services---I sync a HP 620 LX and a Clio on the same machine)but I couldn't
find a way to disable the "grip".
Read an obscure posting on a WinCE noticeboard last night,that cured the
problem in 30 secs:
Start Mobile Devices
File>>Communications>>Autoconnect>>select:"only when Mobile Devices Window
is open.
I am posting this solution as it may benefit anyone who runs Mobile Devices
on their Desktop,and who also needs to use that Com port for another
purpose.

There's an old ShareWare spreadsheet out there called "InstaCalc!" (pretty

a spreadsheet. I once preferred InstaCalc! over Lotus Ýhad to type military
stock numbers into a column, the format was/is: 1234-00-000-000 and Lotus
would SOLVE it, thinking it was a subtraction problem ... I didn't want to
type " ' " before each number and InstaCalc! "knew" to change a number field

If it doesn't show up on any of the shareware sites, let me know and I'll
try to ferret out an old copy for you to experiment with and tinker....

I don't know how it would react to Pocket Quicken vs. "regular" but

Robert,

Thanks for your reply.

Although selecting "1. (parallel)"  from the 123 menu (/ w g d p i)
did not work, selecting "5. (LPT1)" worked exactly as you suggested.

FYI, the baud options are not available when using the parallel or LPT1
as an interface choice.

I appreciate very much your detailed response and solution to my printing
problem.

Chris,

thanks for your answer. I also want to buy and use a
Transdigital Parrallel Port Card to backup the LX to a Zip
drive which I rarely use for the desktop. So this card seems
to work OK.

What I want to use the doubleslot mainly for is a modem and a
CF card. Searching SUPER for something I have come across a

Doubleslot Doublespeed Parch (2K) added 01/05/99.
Version Text 2 by Tetsushi Yamamoto
"DS_PAT applies a patch to the driver for the Accurite
Technologies Doubleslot PCMCIA adapter so it will wirk with
double-speed machines. This is considered a test version, so
please use with caution and back up your data first.
Freeware."

What do you think of this ?
Anyway do you - or anybody else on the list - think that the
Doubleslot does not really hold what it promises (all kinds
of transfers between flash to flash, modem and memory cards
etc.) ?

Regards
Winfried

One of the computer magazines ran a picture of the keyboard recently.  It
has "bubble" keys -- plastic molded keys shaped like bubbles.  In other
words, it didn't look to me like it would be very quick for touch-typing.
 It also had a PS2 connector which, as far as I understand, won't connect
to the 200lx.  (There was talk of a converter a year ago but no news
since.)

The write-up I saw it in was pitching it toward industrial deployments.
I guess the keyboard is chemical and petroleum -proof as well as being
waterproof.  Why you would need a roll-up keyboard in such deployments
excapes me.

"iGo" catalog. I access the internet via Lynx (DOS) and do not get graphics.

You can call 800-228-8374 for a catalog.

Hi there, I have a question for everyone. After fooling around with WinCE
briefly, I came back to my faithful 200LX 2Mb and plan to use it to do all
internet stuff, especially emailing. What are your recommendations to get
started? Both hardware and software recommendations will be greatly
appreciated...

Subject:      Custom Todo Database
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Based on an article I read in CD Infobase, I decided to create a custom
Todo database using the built in database app.
So far I really like it. It's MUCH more flexible than the built in Todo
application. I'm able to do all kinds of nice subsets, categories,
sorts, etc.

Anyway... I created a darn handy macro, and thought I'd share it with
the list.

I like to take notes in outline form, which I can easily do in Memo. So
I added a Keyword field to my Todo database records, and then created a
macro that uses that keyword to call up a document by the same name in
Memo. (Actually one macro initially creates the Memo document, and then
another macro calls it up from then on.)

So now I can highlight a "Work" related Todo Item, and a hotkey
immediately takes me to my outline notes in Memo for that item. When I
quit Memo, I'm taken right back to my Todo list. Nice!

Hi:

I have started using IntelliSync again (now that I can sync Schedule+ and
Notes), but have found that my alarm settings are not honored.  I want alarms
for everything, and they show up properly in Notes and Schedule+, but not on the
handheld.  If I create things on the HP, everything works as expected, but not
from the PC.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

I ended up with a Varta V200 NiMH 1500mAH version. It fits inside the

I have seen this, and even downloaded it.  But I couldn't figure
out how to *use* it.  So I didn't.  And my system works fine, anyway.

No, I think it delivers what it promises.  There may be come
combinations that I haven't tried that are problematic, but all
I have used work fine.  But I think there are people who have had
troubles with DSlot and DblSpeed...

The double speed patch isn't necessary as the driver from Accurite works
fine.  I have one also and have had no trouble, but I don't use it very
often and haven't tested very many combinations.  I have used a modem and a
flashcard together, though.

How about the LXTools written for Linux? Is the source code not usable for

If you set the 200LX IR speed to 2400bps then it should work, if slowly...

You're quite right Andreas. There's no real need to sort - just
filter. I didn't quite think it through thoroughly before I
opened my mouth.

Dear anonymous insurance agent:  Don't pay up for that lost garage in

I upgraded my OmniBook 800 hard disk from 1.4 to 4Gb and have reinstalled
everything with only a slight learning curve on how to get the 800 to recognize
the PCMCIA CDROM. I am glad that I was able to get everything to work, but I do
have one question which will probably show my Windows 95 ignorance.

The hard drive would only format as two different drives (C: and D:) of about
2.0 Mbytes each. Now on my desktop, I have windows 95 running with a 8.0 GB
drive as a single drive. Is there any way to make the whole drive come up as a
single logical partition?

Thanks for your help.

All,

My apologies for the semi-off topic post, but a friend is looking for an 800

list, someone my have a better idea than I were to pick one up new or used
at a reasonable price.

Thanks In Advance,

I'm conceding defeat in the face of CompuServe.

I have an old "number" account with CS that I still use WinCim 2.xx to
access.

I want to switch the account to one allowing me to use Goin' Postal to
access the mail.

I've looked through their FAQs and am still baffled at what service I
should be requesting.  I'm pretty sure CS 2000 isn't it but that is what
the sales help kept insisting I needed.

Could a charitable CS user in the audience please tell me exactly what I
need to be asking for so I end up with: 1) a "name" email address, 2) the
ability to connect using GP, 3) ability to connect as an ordinary ISP
using DUN (or www/lx should my boss spring for it), and 4) still give me
access to the forums.

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Hi all

Does anybody know how to configure Post/LX (through www.cfg) to
make it work with an acoustic coupler, such as Konnexx?

I use Post/LX for ALL my mail but I travel a lot and sometimes
have access only to ordinary hotel phones that cannot be
connected to my Megahertz card modem - no J plugs.

I have figured out a clumsy way that involves manual dialing
and a "dummy" semi-automatic dialing; but it requires
concentration, and very deft fingers or either three
hands...<g>

My WWW.cfg includes:

ÝKonnexx_Script¨
e=3DInitializing modem
m=3D
s=3D\r
w=3D5 OK
e=3DDialing
s=3Datx1dp
q=3DDial phone # manually, connect coupler, THEN "1 Enter" (DUMMY)
s=3D\r
w=3D75 CONNECT
@=3D2

The "q" part is the tricky one where I lift phone, wait for
tone, dial manually, connect the coupler and QUICKLY, at the
200LX, type 1 and ENTER. Whew!

Very complicated/need help. Works, but there _must_ be a better
way.

TIA

Yes it works well.  :-)

I use it for some Word Processing and larger database tasks that were
unsuitable for the built-in database program.  It really works very well on
the palmtop and is very flexible.  I have a database of about 4000 Magic
cards kept in it.  The Word Processor is pretty decent but not quite as
extensive as WordPerfect 5.1.  It takes up approximately 4 megs or so of
disk space.

My OB800 came with W95 Release 2. If you have R2 or later, you can fdisk and format
the hard drive for a FAT32 (32 bit file allocation table). I have not tried HP's
restore CD on a FAT32 partition. If you have W95 Release 1 (the original W95), it
cannot use FAT32. With FAT32, you can have one large partition. FAT16 is limited to
roughly 2GB partitions.

An alternative is to use Partition Magic to change the FAT16 to FAT32 and combine
partitions if you are using R2. FAT32 is more efficient in storage, using 4K
default cluster size. If none of this makes sense, Avi had a blurb on HD size and
cluster size.

I just pretend that I have two hard drives and use the 4GB drive as such with 2
partitions. I use my "second" drive to store an image of my install in case I want
to format drive C. You will gain about 25% more space by going to a FAT32.

You have all you need now - you just have to register or create a pop3
mailbox.

You should be able to:

GO REGISTER.

It might then ask you to convert to NEWmail - you will have to do that,
too.

You should know that they just converted this past weekend and there are
apparently glitches galore!

Also ask over in HPHAND.

I have downloaded the program, read the documentation and

Unfortunately, my file "has errors". As I need this file and
not backing it up is no choice, I have to get rid of
the errors.

The problem is that there are very few clues in dbcheck.txt
how to accomplish this.  What do I have to do with those 5874

Curtis,

I now have all the illegal characters out of the notes.

But the number of actual records seems to vary from the expected number.

Should the number of view point defs = the number of veiw point tables?
They frequently do not.

My appt.adb has a "million" ViewPointTable Error : Data record XX not
found.

It seems that it checked out ok with the previous version, but I don't
have it anymore.

Thnaks,

That is *not* my experience. Try MS network. It never showed drive A:

Accurite, Jim Buell said the driver from MS is wrong, although it
worked without doubleslot, independent if DS or SS.

There are lots of examples, where it didn't work here and for me I
found a few examples where it did work properly. I took the chance to
return the unit.

I have a strong demand to backup my 96MB CFlashs and 48MB CFlashs and
would appreciate if a solid network solution could be found.

But be aware that the mail to nnnn.nnnnn@compuserve.com and the mail to zimm4@csi.com (or whatever name you pick) are quite separate.  You'll have to use WinCIM or whatever to access the 'old' mail, you can however I think forward from one to the other.

I looked at the CS 2000 CD they sent me and I haven't opened it - it did not seem to have anything I wanted. A couple of weeks ago I got phoned by a customer survey for Compuserve, so they are I guess trying to find a market position.  All these free ISPs must be hurting them.

For GP you need to read the notes on how to use it with Compuserve, there is a script you need to use, that handles the 7-bit-even opening password dialogue.  Works fine for me.

First, get a memory and speed upgrade from Thaddeus (www.thaddeus.com).

Then get a SimpleTech 33.6 if you want to connect via modem
(www.shopper.com).

Then get an Accton EN2216 if you want to connect to a LAN
(www.shopper.com).

Then get the new version of LXCIC (which is in beta testing now) to
replace the built-in cic100 (which doesn't support ethernet cards).

Then, if you don't know what TCP/IP, SMTP, POP, NNTP, DNS & HTTP mean,
or you want commercial support, or GUI setup programs, or selective
downloading based on headers only, look at POST/LX (www.dasoft.com) or
Goin' Postal (gp.hplx.net).

If you want web browsing, then look at WWW/LX (www.dasoft.com).

If you can't afford those solutions, and are willing to trade off
convenience and user-friendly features vs cost, or want source code,
or want an EXM mail reader, then look at LXTCP (lxtcp.hplx.net) and
PNR (pnr.hplx.net).

If you want to use the built-in cc:Mail application with a POP server,
then look at ccLXPOP (super.hplx.net).

Subject:      Custom Todo Database
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

After my post yesterday, I had quite a few people write and ask me to
send them my Todo database.

The database itself is really nothing fancy. My post was primarily meant
to show how I was able to make a Todo item be able to open a related
file in Memo. That was the thing I thought was really neat.

(Don't get me wrong... I'll be happy to send the database to anyone who
wants it!)

However, for anyone interested, here are some more complete instructions
for how I created that macro:

My custom Todo database has the following fields in it:  A check off
button, Due Date, Category, Priority, Todo Item, Keyword, and Note.

In order to create a macro to open a file in Memo like I described in my
post, you'll need to create a smart clip on the 'Keyword' field in the
database. I named that smartclip "Keyword". Then the following macros
should work.

I actually did two macros...
The first one goes to Memo and does a SaveAs to initially create a .doc
file (in Outline format) with the same name as the Keyword. I have mine
defined to Fn-F1. It looks like this:
{F5}k{Enter}{Memo}{Menu}fn{Menu}to{Enter}{F8}{F8}{Menu}fa{Paste}{Enter}{
Menu}q

I use a second macro to open the memo document every time after the
first time.  It will copy the Keyword smartclip, go to Memo, do a
file/open, paste the smartclip in as the file name, and open the file. I
have mine defined to Fn-F2. It looks like this:
{F5}k{Enter}{Memo}{Menu}fo{Paste}{Enter}

You can also basically use the same technique to create an Appointment
from one of your Todo items. Just create a smartclip over the Todo
field, and then record a macro to copy the smartclip and paste it into
your appointment book. I have mine defined to Fn-F9. It looks like this:
{F5}t{Enter}{Appt}{F2}{Paste}(F10}
=======================================================================

Thanks for all the interest. Hope this post is a bit more helpful!

Steve

I don't know that would help. LXtools can be (sort of) classified as a
client/server serial communications app. In this case, we only have one
machine and no serial communications. What we need is a kernel driver that
will mount a DOS partition under a MINIX directory. No easy task, I think,
given the way that MINIX is implemented on the LX.

Actually, I believe that is no longer the case after this past weekend.
CIS has changed their pop3 stuff.  The name@csi.com is being phased out
(actually, gone but mail to those addresses will be forwarded to
name@compuserve.com for 2 years).  AND they have consolidated the
nnn.nnn@compuserve.com and name@compuserve into one mailbox.  So now the
internal email address mail box and the pop3 are one and the same.

At least, that is what I understand.  Others can correct me if I'm
wrong.

Before I had a GSM phone, I used my accoustic coupler a lot. It made no
difference whether using the coupler or having a direct line, i.e. I
used all the same settings. If tone dial was possible, everything went
automatically. If not (the more typical case), I just dialled the
number manually at the time I heared the dialling tones sent through
the coupler.

Very reasonably priced, simple and intuitive,easy to set up.
You ll notice there are barely ever any questions asked about it on this

Just a satisfied customer, no hands on knowledge of other solutions.

Hi Brian & List,

Yes! If you installed Win 95b, you can convert the drive to fat 32 with the
fat32 converter CVT.EXE


BTW: I got CVT.EXE if you needed it.

Yep, someone else suggested that. It doesn't seem to be able to see the
device properly. I think that this implementation of MINIX can't directly
access drive paritions because it is not running from a parition. It's
almost like there's something between the kernel and the drive controller.
That 'something between' is probably the mechanism that let's it run from a
file system image instead of an actual partition.

I believe this has been discussed here before but I may have missed
details and I definitely WANT DETAILS.

Is there GOOD, EASY to interpret and read info on getting to the inside
of the screen lid to perform a "preemptive fix" of the area near the
hinge that is subject to breaking.  That is from the "back"
(inside/hidden surface) side?  A web page showing how?  A detailed text
file?  Someone save a message? (G)

I would guess somehow you have to get into and behind the LCD.  I'm
probably not going to rush into anything (being one of those who have
never really opened even the easier to access lower half of the HP200.)

Or is it not a fix for the faint of heart? (G)

I would guess that a plastic or other "patch" would be glued to the area
that is subject to the stress on the inside.  Hopefully, rather than
displacing the stress to another location, it would avoid it
completely???

Thanks for info....

I seem to remember a few weeks (months?) ago that someone here mentioned a

across many vendors.  If anyone remembers the site and could forward it to
me it would be greatly appreciated.

Good for you, David. Where would the world be if we blindly
heeded warnings? There'd be no experience, no learning and no
progress.

Here are some more fun things to test & report back on. If you
need to prioritise, skip the last one as there seems to be no
shortage of people trying it.

* Petrol + Matches
* Water + Electricity
* Babies + Plastic Bags
* Children + Domestic Bleach
* Motor cars + Alcohol

BTW, all very tongue in cheek, in case it's not obvious.

Memory size is something that can be mitigated on the
PalmPilot. There are aftermarket upgraders, and another about
to join the list.

The real problem with useless handheld devices is that they
are too small to serve as bookends! :)

Truth be told, I like the PalmPilot - it is neat machine and a
great concept and execution. If they manage to stay the course
and not get lured into the WinCE world, they have a grat
chance to make a difference.

If you use HV all you need to do is CTRL-R. It will try to
reload the Webpage and tell WWW.EXE to do it. WWW.EXE will
try, and find the modem off-line and simply reestablish the

I dont  have the manual with me so I cant check this, but can key200 (supplied

I don't know the specific keys, but I remember that the User
Guide that came with the 200LX gives a list of the whacky key
combinations to do on the palmtop to get all of the normal
keys from a regular keyboard.

Try menu and the + or -  key on the keypad.  The manual pages that
cover this are 25-14 and 25-15.

It does work.  It was years ago now, but that's how I made the switch as I did not have a serial cable for the 200 just then.

If you set the 200LX IR speed to 2400bps then it should work, if slowly...

If you're referring to APDOS, the accountant at Thaddeus Computing had it=

running on his machine.  He claims that it's a full-fledged accounting

Yes. I think it is the same. It was one of the programs that Dr.
Garwood and yourself reviewd in PTP Vol. 7, N. 6. The reason for
the divergences in accounting conventions are due, I think, to the
fact that APDOS is a european program, swiss to be more exact,
and in Europe accounting conventions differ from the ones in the
States.

Can you ask the accountant from Thaddeus to post me the steps
he took to install it in the 200LX. The program still eludes me
regarding inatallation.

Thanks

I've written an article about all this serial comm stuff.

If you look at the home page of
www.palmtop.net

you can find there a link to the software "Transfile Win200". That's
the software you need to connect your 200LX to a windows PC.

It works, but not by simply calling GRAPHICS.COM. You also need
the profile GRAPHICS.PRO and it must support your printer.

Please first enter GRAPHICS /? to get the GRAPHICS help screen
which explains how to use GRAPHICS. Then have a look at the
ASCII file GRAPHICS.PRO and find out if your printer is already
supported. If not, you can try a default printer or add support
for your printer.

I use a (supported) Dekjet, hence I have to load the driver as:

GRAPHICS DESKJET

Then I have to make sure, that my serial port is powered and
set up properly. From now on I can print any graphics by simply
pressing Fn 0 (the print screen keycombination of the palmtop)

NOTE: GRAPHICS is a once forever TSR. No way to remove it from
      memory except with the 3-finger salut. You only need
      GRAPHICS if you want to print from plain DOS. From within
      SYSMGR you may use one of the built in 3 printer drivers.

I can highly recommend D&A's WWW/LX. It's all you need (especially
for emailing, but also for web browsing, ftp-ing, telneting and a news
reader is also included) and it's really worth the money.
You can download a trial version on the webpage of D&A
www.dasoft.com

There are also other solutions:
- Goin' Postal by Steven Lawson (only emailing software, but also very
good!)
- Nettamer (is nearly able to do all the stuff WWW/LX can, but it's (in
my opinion) difficult to use)
and maybe a few other ones which I forgot...

I tested all these programs and I ended up using WWW/LX.

Wally,

Thanks for the instructions at http://wally.hplx.net/dosshell.html on
how to setup DosShell.

I have a problem, though: whenever I try to call an application from
within DosShell, I just get a blank screen and the palmtop does not
respond to anything but a Ctrl-Alt-Del.

Is this a known problem?

Thanks in advance,
Paulo

Yes, but while Michael was visiting me and we were discussing merging
the latest TCP stack with Arachne, I gave him an LX with a badly patched
hinge.  I suspect there will be a reasonable LX-optimized Arachne in
the near future!

Is it just me or does it seem like since HP has discontinued the line =

has been a heck of a lot of development for the LX platform?

Or you can be a cheapskate like me and find an ISP that offers you UNIX shell
access. Then you simply use the built-in Datacomm to employ the ISP's tools like
pine, tin and lynx for e-mail, news and WWW.

The downside is that Web browsing with Lynx is an exercise in imagination,
because it displays only the text and hyperlinks of a page -- no graphics. This
is less of a problem for pages you are familiar with, but a little bewildering
when you surf to a brand new page. (To see what your favorite web page looks
like with Lynx, go to: http://www.slcc.edu/webguide/lynxit.html

The upside is that it's *cheap* and *fast*! (Even a 14.4 kbps modem on a single
speed machine goes like the blazes!

Yeah, I hope it continues too. I've had my 200LX for 5 years and it's been

(snip)

More great X-Finder tips from Peniel! Peniel and Qman should write a book, or
maybe even an XF config program  :-)  We should point out to non-users that it's
really easy to install X-Finder ...all of this discussion is about the thousands
of ways an individual can customize XF because the program is so *flexible*.

Speaking of customization, SUPER now has an updated Mac XF icons set, plus new
icon sets for Win95, BeOS and IRIX. (I can't program, so I do icons.)

One XF idea I have been looking at is a way to show wallpaper in the icon view.
I gave up on this, however, once I realized that the icons would display on 44 x
32 white squares. I suppose a hack is possible for this, but it would probably
involve making masks for all the icons you want to use, which would be a large
hassle.

A second idea that I haven't yet examined closely is to have two Trash icons,
which would automatically show whether the Trash is empty or full. Probably I
can do it by:

1.   adding a command to ÝShift¨ÝF4¨ to copy empty-t.icn to trash.icn before
deleting c:\trash\*.*
2.  adding a command to ÝDel¨ to copy full-t.icn to trash.icn before moving
selected files to c:\trash\*.*

I'll look into this when I get some free time.

Hi guys'n'gals

Sorry to re-open the X-finder/icon question again, but I've spent all
afternoon getting nowhere with it and I'd appreciate some advice. I got the
program installed OK, but I do not get any icons at all, just blanks with
the file names below them. I've checked the settings in my finder.env file
and they look OK (they should do, as I haven't altered them since opening
the archive). If I go to my icon files (C:\_DAT\icon.lzh for example) I can
see icons in there, but when I select one and hit F1 to initialise the file,
I get the error message "Cannot connect" at the bottom of the screen. All
this is on an unexpanded 2MB machine. If anyone has any ideas, I'd like to
hear them.

cheers

     Hello all,

I have bought an Accton EN2212-2 EtherNet card. It was
amost free (else I wouldn't get it) but the problem is:
the breakout box and cable are missing.

Do you have the pinout for female connector of the card?
I think a cable and RJ-45 box can be manufactured, if the
pinout is known. Of course will check Accton's website,
but I'm almost sure that ordering a replacement cable
accessory would cost very much.

I'm interested in any working solution, aesthetic values
of the home-made cable are not important, it will be used
for work, not show.

            Sincerely Yours: Tamas Feher.

Hi

I've just installed taskbar (and learnt about moreEXM in the process - very
nice) but when I launch an application from it, taskbar isn't there when the
application quits. Is that (a) normal, and (b) something I can't alter? I'd
prefer to have taskbar waiting for me at the end (despite it making my HP200
look suspiciously like a WinCE box...).

What are you looking for?

The X-Finder program is on SUPER. Go to:
http://palmtop.net/supernew.html
...then search for X-Finder.

You'll also find my icon sets and other X-Finder goodies there with this search.

Peniel's latest X-Finder tips are in this List's archives. Check:

I hope this helps,

Hi Jeremy & List,

Nope, there is nothing you can do.
It appears that TaskBar has what I will call "Auto-Hide" built-in. (:-(

ÝFluff¨
Be cool on the talk about a suspicious looking WinCE box, you'll blow the
200LX's cover. Your unit has been re-assigned to Special Obs, didn't you know?

Gotta go, like I said be cool on the talk, Microsoft might get the word and
have HP discontinue your unit.

Later, HeHeHe...

I did some research at the lotus site and I found out that there
is a translation tool for 1-2-3 version 2.0 only (and for wk3-
files - I guess they are used by Version 3 of 1-2-3). So it will
not work for 2.4 which is what's built-in in the Hp200lx.
This is very sad. The functions are converted automatically by 1-
2-3 but not the macro-commands.

I've been playing around with a database, and I've added some new
fields. However, now some of the fields have gotten out of order. So now
when I Tab thru the fields it skips around a bit, instead of going left
to right, top to bottom.

Does anyone know how I can define the fields to be in a particular
order?

TIA,

IIRC, the tab order is top-to-bottom, left-to-right. I bet that when
it looks like it's going out of order, some fields that look like
they're on the same row are actually slightly higher than others.

Subject:      Problem with built in database

Has any one had this problem?

In built in database application, I create a new database.  Then I go to modify
the database with the 'Modify database' command.  I make all kinds of changes
to the database structure.  Then I hit OK (F10) to try and save it, most of
the time it works fine and my new structure is saved. (here comes the problem!)
But about half the time I get the message "Record not found" or something like
that.  Basically it won't let me save the changes to the database.  The only
way out seems to be to hit cancel, which of course looses all my changes.


Has any one else seen this problem?

Thanks,
Eric

I've seen that problem many times.  I don't know what causes it, but it
usually happens after I have a few records in the new database and try to
make changes.  What I generally do is copy the database to a new one,
erase all the records, and then merge the records from the old database
into the new one.   Generally, as long as there are no records in the
database, it won't give the record not found error.  But YMMV...

I always thought "Record not found" was something akin to the kiss of death.

Isn't that the message you almost always get with a database corruption?

I'd download Curtis Cameron's Data File Checker from the SUPER site and see if
your DB is wacked out before trying to make anymore changes.

"Everything I need to know I learned from buying my palmtop."  I like it.
Could be an interesting book.

Hi Paulo,

Thankyou very much for the PERL script.   I just tried it and it works.  Now I
just need to wade through the PERL documentation to better understand the
language as I expect I will be using it quite a bit.   I find it easier to
learn the language when I have a few examples so once againg thanks.

Regards,

Leon

PERL would do it easily. For example (this code untested):

perl -ne "next if /¬P/; s/¬M(.{0,24})(.*)/P$1\nM$2/; print" infile >

Jeremy,

I for one am glad you "re-opened" the question, as it gives me a chance to
"piggy-back" my enquiry on yours!  8¬)

ÝSNIP¨

>I got the
>program installed OK, but I do not get any icons at all, just blanks with
>the file names below them. I've checked the settings in my finder.env file
>and they look OK (they should do, as I haven't altered them since opening
>the archive)...

ÝSNIP¨

I have a slightly different problem.  I decided that I wanted everything
X-finderish in one directory tree so as to keep things simple
directory-wise, and so I could simply delete that section if I found I
didn't like the program (not much chance of *that*, it looks like).  What I
did was create C:\XFINDER, and under that I put \ICONS, \PALMTOP, \TRASH,
and \SYSTEM (the last being where the executable etc. goes).

I then proceeded to create some directories under \PALMTOP and put links to
my various files there.  So, for example, I can have a "Fun and Games"
folder on the "desktop," and in it have other folders arranged by game type
(cards, dice, strategy, etc.)  Same with my work apps and so on.  As far as
I can tell, I have everything set up properly; I edited the environment
file so it knows where to find icons, etc.  (Note there are no icons for
these links in the \ICONS directory or the archives, just in the target
directories with the apps.)

Here's the problem: When I *first* start X-Finder, I get the default file
icon for all the links.  If I hit <F1>, X-Finder refreshes and the "real"
icons come up, and then they're okay for the entire remainder of the
session.  If I quit and restart X-Finder, they of course revert to the
default file icon.

I have been over what I've set up a couple of times but can't see what I'm
doing wrong.  Has anyone else seen this one before?  I'd appreciate a clue
as to what I've mucked up.

Thanks,
Rick

Key200 should be able to do this.
Just type 'key200' at your dos prompt and look at the kay map that
key200 shows. The on key is called 'on' (at least on my German
palmtop). So it should be possible to remap it.

Hello Jeff,

Does Lynx log you off when you turn the HP off?  I use PostLX, and
sometimes I have not been on batteries, and left it so long the HP has
powered off.  MOST of the time I can just turn it back on and keep
surfing without disconnection. If I leave it for ages, the line drops
out.

In fact, I can even switch to another Software Carousel Work area,
check a database, or phone number, or something, and switch back and
keep surfing.

Dont know if this is only available with Post/LX???

OK, I figured out what the problem was. Your challenge, should you choose to
accept it, is to work out what I'd done wrong.

I had downloaded the original FINDER.ZIP file to my desktop machine (which
is actually a notebook), uncompressed the file, put my my HP200LX's flash
memory card into the notebook's PCMCIA slot and copied the folder onto that.
Then I put the PCMCIA card back into the HP200LX and moved the FINDER.ENV,
ICON.LZH and ICONFLD.LZH files into C:\DAT. Then when I tried to start
X-finder I had the problem I mentioned yesterday.

Here's where I'd screwed up. My notebook is a Mac PowerBook, and I'd
unzipped FINDER.ZIP using Stuffit Expander. I'd fallen foul of the Mac->DOS
CR/LF problem and X-finder couldn't read FINDER.ENV.... You'd think I'd
remember that one, after all the time I've been nootling around with
computers. Oh well. Once I copied FINDER.ZIP onto the card and unzipped it
using UNZIP.EXE on the HP200LX everything was fine and dandy.

Thanks to all who offered suggestions on and off the list. I must say that
now I have it working, XF is a damn good program and really gives my palmtop
a new lease of life.

Now I just have to work out the best way to get it working with
MaxDOS...tha's my weekend taken care of :)

OK, I can live with the way TaskBar does that. I'll probably set it up to
work with XF, and I'll evolve the most useful way for them to coexist in
that case.

I'm not too sure that my HP200LX will actually pass for a WinCE box. After
all, it runs for hours on two AA cells, has programs that are actually of
some use to me and doesn't need resetting all the time (unlike the HP620LX I
used for about two weeks last year).

Hmm....reassigned to special ops....maybe that explains why my HP200LX has
no serial number. If I can just find the right combination of keystrokes,
maybe it will fly me off to area 51.

Hmmm. What did you use the "only" view for? I thought it is for finding
names in the address book, isn't it? For that I always use the same
search string, which is the empty one - and in my PHONE.PIM, the
default string is set to "+p". So with Ctrl-C ENTER, I see a list of
all names. Then I start typing the first few letters of the name I am
looking for and it jumps to the first occurence. If I start with the
beginning of the name, the other matching names will be just below
because I usually keep my phone list sorted.

Not exactly. The name@csi.com will be phased out in the next 2
years. You can continue using it though (I do.) You can also
get to the same email from name@compuserve.com (if the latter
worked properly, which is only a so-so proposition right
now...)

Their sales staff knows about CS2000, but not about the POP3 -
so they cannot give any info in that direction. As Fred told
you, and Tony, all you need to do is open a POP3 account, and
then provide it with a password (see GO NPX92 in Tnoy's
message).

This POP3 mailbox will give you something like lzim@csi.com or
lzim@compuserve.com. You may use both for the next 2 years,
when CSI.COM is phased out. Meanwhile you "can" (in theory)
access the same mail using lzim@compuserve.com. But it seems
to be broken now.

The POP3 mailbox is accessible from the intermet email
packages, ours (Post/LX) as well as GP, NetTamer, and so on
that you read about here...

You will need to set up some things, but I can tell you for
WWW/LX-Post/LX not the other programs.

The numeric id remains. It is still the one you use to get
into the network, if you use CIS' PPP gateway. It is what you
use to get into forums, and also what you use to get into the
proprietary, non-POP3 email box (addressed to you as nnnnn,nnn
or nnnnn.nnn@compuserve.com.

Good luck! Enjoy.

ROFL! Good message. I think you got almost everything. Let me
add other possibilities:

Modems: Apex 33.6 Cell ready, Grey Cells / TDK 33.6. There are
others too (EXP 33.6), even someone mentioned 56bbps by Lexar?

Also, any PCMCIA modem which uses less than 150mah, which
includes all the 2400 baud, 9600 baud (the last two almost
impossible to find), many 14.4 and 28.8 are aslo suitable.

External modems of course.

Software: Thanks for the plug for WWW/LX. Nettamer is another
contender. Someone here uses Pegasus (John M?)

There are also text browsers, and even arachne, another
graphical browser.

In short, plenty of options. Who said the palmtop was an
obsolete machine? :-¨

Do you mean 95LX? As far as I know, it doesn't support devices (like modems) in
its PCMCIA slot ...with the exception of one EXP modem card made specifically
for the 95LXa long time ago. Therefore you should probably be looking for a
pocket modem, which you can attach to the serial port via a 95LX serial cable
plus a null modem adapter. Maybe others here with 95LX experience can help you
more.

I guess this is for you Andreas. Well I now got a S25 to play around
with.

I have read in the manual that the S25 supports V.25, ITU-T standard
V.22 and most importent for me ETSI GSM 07.05 and 07.07.

Well somethings goes wrong I get this:

Connecting to phone
Talking with "SIEMENS S25"
IrDA connect failed
***ERROR***
Time out in line 19 in sms.scr

Then it exits..

I have a pdf file I downloaded with all the AT commands the phone
supports. I have tried to change the first "AT/r" to something else in
the script, but with no luck. I have no experience with Robot/lx
scripting. I can mail the pdf to you if you want.

So Andreas if you are not to busy could you help me with the tweaking
of the script? I guess you do the tweaking and I do the testing?

Thanks in advance

Ps! The connection fails if I try to go online too.. "IrDA connect
fail"

CSI addr. being shot? Shoot. That's how I've got my POST/LX set up. Will the
"numbered" email continue to work "forever"?

I've got to echo the pricing scheme frustrations I've heard here..... Don't
know *why* they bill me as much as they do. I'm going to see if they still
have the $9.99 per month deal 'cause I'm only using c-serve for some palmtop
email right now ÝI almost always get a local ISP since the military usually
stations us far away from the fast access points¨.

And, in response to someone's note in a quote, you *can* forward the
numbered address Ýold-style¨ account to your .csi address. That's how I get
99.9% of my CompuServe mail. I give people my numbered account and let the
system forward it.....

Sigh.

It's finally happened.  My 200LX has gotten the dreaded hinge crack....  Ýif
any Thaddeus folks are on today, is that covered by my warranty?¨.

Where's the page telling me how to disassemble the critter and what sort of
glue to buy, etc.?  *AND* will this tinkering VOID my Thaddeus warranty?

This has NEVER happened to my 100LX and I used it pretty abusively. Is the
200LX more susceptible to this crack?

I'm sure it has to do with the Black 100LX case absorbing solar energy more
efficiently; thus, only under our yellow sun (of course) it has certain
invulnerability Ý'course these powers might be negated by certain percussive
maintenance, the angle of certain falls, and any fall triggered by a cat (my
cat shattered an old Tandy Zoomer screen once ... took a lot to convince
them that they should fix it.....)¨.

I have a slightly different problem.  I decided that I wanted everything
X-finderish in one directory tree so as to keep things simple
directory-wise, and so I could simply delete that section if I found I
didn't like the program (not much chance of *that*, it looks like).  What I
did was create C:\XFINDER, and under that I put \ICONS, \PALMTOP, \TRASH,
and \SYSTEM (the last being where the executable etc. goes).

Here's the problem: When I *first* start X-Finder, I get the default file
icon for all the links.  If I hit <F1>, X-Finder refreshes and the "real"
icons come up, and then they're okay for the entire remainder of the
session.  If I quit and restart X-Finder, they of course revert to the
default file icon.

I have been over what I've set up a couple of times but can't see what I'm
doing wrong.  Has anyone else seen this one before?  I'd appreciate a clue
as to what I've mucked up.


    -------------------------- Reply Separator ---------------------------


Hi Rick & List,

My X-Finder setup is very similar to yours, but try this:


Put finder.exm, finder.env, icon.lzh, iconfld.lzh  in your c:\_dat.

Ok C:\XFINDER, \ICONS, \PALMTOP, \TRASH, \SYSTEM looks good. But put a "\"
after your \ICONS\  rename \PALMTOP to \PALMTOP¬  BTW do the renaming in Filer.

Now every thing thats in \PALMTOP¬ will have a full icon view. Press ÝF1¨.
also \ICONS\ should only house uncompressed icons (finder.icn, setup.icn etc.)

HTH

Thanks,

David,

What are the map page and database page?  This is the first I've heard of
them and didn't see anything obvious at SUPER.

Sorry. At the bottom of the page you'll find two lzh files with the two
newest versions. The only files in the archive are the todo.exm and
one of them also includes fit.exm. I'm led to believe that they are
somewhat a kind ob beta versions or versions with different updates
relative to v.2.1 with small differences to this one.

regards

Antonio

PS: You'll find there also a program called fcookie.exm that is
somewhat like the Daily Greeting built in appointement on the
200LX but without the possibility of seting an hour to launch it.

Hi gang

I'm leaving, at last, on hollidays. But thank to the web and to email
(and phone lines) I'll maintain contact.

on another note. If you take a tour on some japanase sites you'll
find that several of the authors put at the top of the page a gif
image saying: HP 200 LX Discontinued (with the last word stroke
out) and just below Continued. Our japanese friends are not happy
with the HP decision as we aren't.

Take care and the force of the HPLX be with you.

The latest version has a README file in English thanks to Toshiki.... does
anybody else have that version?  I know it was mailed to palmtop.net, but
Mitch's 200LX crashed and so the next update will be a few days.

hi list,

I have a new CF-disk now and I love it. It's so much faster than
my old card. Now, I would like to install Minix on my old
flashcard. Does it fit on a 10 MB card? I don't want to do serious
work with Minix, just want to play around a little bit.

Where can I find the Minix files? I couldn't find them on Super.

I managed to reproduce your problem on my single-speed 2MB 200LX, but it took
some doing. :-)

Showing blanks with the file names below them means that X-Finder cannot find
icons in the place where it is told to look for them by the FINDER.ENV file.
(The FINDER.ENV file tells X-Finder how you have customized it. X-Finder reads
FINDER.ENV when it first starts, and when you press ÝF1¨ to alert X-Finder to
any changes you may have made to FINDER.ENV while X-Finder was running.)

The "Cannot Connect." means that you had X-Finder look for files on a remote
disk, which means a disk on another PC to which your palmtop is connected via a
serial cable. (X-Finder identifies disks as being remote if they are marked with
an asterisk, as in "*c:".)

Assuming both of the above are caused by the same problem, check your FINDER.ENV
again to make sure the pathnames in variables "%i", "%a", "%f" and "%g" do not
include asterisks.

Try putting all your icons into the the icon directories/archives listed in
FINDER.ENV.

X-Finder looks for, remembers and uses the icons from the icon
directories/archives listed in FINDER.ENV, which it normally reads only when it
starts up. This is why, when you change icons while X-Finder is running, you
have to press ÝF1¨ to make X-Finder aware of the changes. Pressing ÝF1} causes
it to re-read FINDER.ENV and re-examine the listed icon directories/archives.

Hope this helps,
Bruce in Toronto

The current version will not fit on a 10MB card, as it is 40MB after being
unzipped.  Mack made an 8MB version which would fit, and somebody on the
list (who was it again?) made a 5MB version.  Anybody with a small
version, please e-mail me off the list and let me know what you took out
of the disk image in order to shrink it, and we will see if we can get the
various versions all posted so people can choose which version they want.

I downloaded and tried the new version and it seems to have a couple of bugs
and scrambles data at random. I have been using todo 2.1 for about two weeks
and I really like it. The difference is that you can go down to the next
entry on full window view while you have to get out to list mode to scroll
down with the earlier version. The other difference is cosmetic one with
frames. I haven't figured that out yet. English ocumentation would be very
helpful indeed.

Subject:      Asking those XIP knowledgeable for info on easter egg.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-2"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

  Hello all,

As you know, there is an easter egg in the 200LX, typing
"gallery" after Lair of Squid has been started brings up
the photos of HPLX design team members hanging from walls.
You can walk and look at the photos from 3 directions,
30deg left, face-to-face and 30deg right for virtual 3D.

I presume they did not hide 3 images of each person for this
purpose, but rather there is only one (probably compressed)
bitmap stored in ROM per person, which is being roteted by
some kind of primitive "graphics engine", also located in
and running from the XIP ROM.

What I would like to know, whether:
-location of these code chunks are known within the ROM area
-if the ports and means of passing arguments into this sub-
  routine have been discovered or can be figured out
-if this "engine" can handle a variety of bitmap sizes or
  only one fixed yyy x zzz pixels picture kind. Also, what kind
  of compression (if any) is being applied to pictures in ROM?

Once a good while ago there was a much debated thread about
using code parts of the XIP ROM as subroutines in 3rd party and
user-written programs, discussing the benefits and problems.
I just think that if this piece of code can be put to use in
other programs that the almost completely unused maze, that
would be great. Like a 3-D enabled LxPic.

Or someone write DOOM for the HPLX! (this is badly needed! One
Psion 3C owner showed me his machine running a Doom clone.
That Psion machine is a 80186 with lower than CGA resolution.
If they could do it, why there is no shoot-em-up for HPLX?)
Probably Lair of Squid could be put under the hood, just like
cc:Mail Mobile got embedded lately.

                    Sincerely Yours: Tamas Feher.

BUT... it does not support text mode, only PDU mode from what I have
seen today. This is bad news and means that SMS will not work unless
you have a very special program.

Oh, it does not even get that far... Not even the IrDA connection gets
established.

You might want to try running

   www -@11 Port=-1 >www.log

and send the created file www.log to me by email. Maybe I can see what
is going wrong.

Depends on a lot of factors.  But I've got a couple of 1000CX units that
have such badly cracked hinges that the screen module is completely
separated from the body, yes.  So don't let it get too bad.

Use the Shift + arrow up or down keys to make the fine adjustments to put
the fields on exactly the same level. I usually try to make the upper and
lower borders overlap at first before I move the relevant field to its
proper place after that.

Sorry if this question has already been answered.  I've been on vacation
for two weeks without access to the HPLX list.  As a result, I'm wading
thru about 1000 email notes in my inbox.

An example of a good outliner is PC Outline (there may be other good ones,
but PC Outline is the one that I am most familiar with).

Its capabilities include the following (extracted from its user guide).
I've added asterisks to indicate what I consider to be the most important
features:

Standard PC-Outline outlining features include:
    - hierarchical outline structure *
    - structured indenting *
    - hide/unhide (collapse/expand) any portion of the outline *
    - powerful outline rearrangement functions *

Advanced PC-Outline features include:
    - automatic numbering, including choice of numbering style
     (alphabetic, numeric, roman, bullets, or none)
    - easy, pull-down menus  *
    - multi-line outline entries *
    - automatic paragraph reformatting
    - margin control *
    - centering, left and right justification
    - hanging indents
    - search and replace *
    - on screen page break display
    - conditional and hard page breaks
    - block copies, moves, and deletes *
    - tab stop settings *
    - send printer control strings
    - printer formatting: underline, boldface, italics,
      sub/superscript, double strike
    - windowing: up to 9 outlines open/on screen at once in
      user-defined windows *
    - zoom any window to full screen with a single keystroke
    - copy or move outline or text directly between windows *
    - customizable printer drivers
    - sorting
    - user defined macros/key redifinition *
    - live date and time stamps
    - full support for dos 2.0 and above
    - read/write other file formats including: ascii, Wordstar,
      ThinkTank/Ready!
    - data transfer with other programs including cut and paste
      to other active programs while memory resident
    - configuration file to set startup defaults *
    - compatible with other memory resident programs (like
      SideKick, ProKey, etc.)
    - freely mix outlines and text: titles, skip numbering, start
      new numbering, move placement right and left
    - return to dos without leaving PC-Outline

====

Disadvantages of PC Outline (my opinion):
- Uses a complex data file format; i.e., does not use ASCII file.
- Data files occasionally become corrupted.
- Data files cannot be easily converted to ASCII when attempting to recover
data.


I like what I've read about PE/PIM, but I have not had the time to
experiment with them sufficiently enough to understand their capabilities
or to suggest modifications.  However, I believe adding outlining
capabilities while retaining a "readable" ASCII format would be very useful.

This is what I suggest too. Repeated stuff DOES always cause problems
(in reality, birthdays and some holidays are the only things that
really do repeat according to a rule, for the rest +~ seems much more
appropriate). Also if you want to move repeated items into some other
software, it always is a problem.

Only multi-day and multi-week is supported. I did not think anybody has
items that repeat every n months, every n years or every n easters.
Obviously, I was wrong.

Um, well.  Avoiding the whole issue raised above, I have to say that if the
48GX can run a (rudimentary, admittedly) version of Doom, the 200LX should
be able to do so as well.  We just need some great programmers with way too
much time on their hands-- and our great programmers all  tend to be
overworked.

I had a look at the S25 in a shop and besides IRDA it also
supports a wired connection to the serial port of a computer
without IRDA. Wouldn't it be easier to check first, if the
phone can be used with a wired connection and in a second step
check the IRDA connection?

Hi, all
This probably have been asked a hundred time. Sorry, I didn't pay attention
then.
I started to try to set up X-finder in my palmtop last night. I got the v6
working. Today, I downloaded the v9, but can't hv the icons show up.
I'd copy the necessary files to c:\_dat, and created c:\palmtop and extract
all files inside. Anything I miss? Can someone guide me through this?

How to set Memo as the default viewer and editor?

TIA

I will take it if it is still available, really just want the
manuals, but would be more than happy to buy the whole package.
I know Thaddeus sells the MicroRef manuals.  Please email me if
it is still available, and I will send you payment.

Not really. Thanks for bringing up the topic again!

> Its capabilities include the following

What would be helpful to me is *what* you do with it. I would like to
improve PM/PE so that you can *do* the same thing with it. I don't want
to copy the features of some other program. I want to provide the
functionality, but not necessarily the identical means to achive it.

I think I have seen all the outliner features you mentioned before
(some of it is even implemented in Memo), but I never saw any practical
use for it.

You may want to try

CHKDSK /F

Answer "yes" if it asks whether it should create files from lost
sectors. If they contain PIM data, you can still use them by copying
the stuff into CUR.PIM. (this is nice about pure ASCII!)

If this does not help, Norton Disk Doctor might get you further.

If this does not help either, I hope you have a backup.

Also it might be worthwhile to find out what caused the corruption (low
battery condition, for example?) to prevent it in the future.

Subject:      Is my modem broken?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I have an EXP ThinFax 288c which worked as of about two weeks ago, but
last night I tried to use it and it did not respond to any input.  LXCIC
sucessfully retrieves tuple information, and recognises the modem, but
the communications otherwise seem to be stopped.

And I also noticed a 'heartbeat' on my fingers, so I put the palmtop to
my ear, and what tiny little click the modem makes when the palmtop is
turned on, it now does about every three seconds.  I tried CIC200,
CIC100, neither of them seem to make a difference, although LXCIC is the
only one makes the modem click, it probably keeps attempting to reset
the modem or something.

My old CC4144 modem works fine..

Anyone ever heard of this happening?  I plan to contact EXP to see if
they have an idea, perhaps there is some flash ram in there that got
zapped.  I know it has probably 8K of ram for cellular drivers, but that
is cleaned out when powered down.

Cheers.

Well maybe..but the cable is extra and the shop did not have it yet.
But the S25 should work as the 8810, but it does not. After some
testing and reading of official pdf files from Siemens and a lot of
help from Andreas it seems like the Siemens can not be used for the
Robot/lx sms script.

I have now givin up the S25 and the sms script. But I am still doing
tests to use the S25 as a modem. But it seems like Siemens have done a
few "shortcuts" in the implementation of ETSI 07.05 and the modem irda
thing..

This is all according to Andreas Garzotto..I have sent him some log
files to see what is going on when the hp and S25 are "Talking"..maybe
it still can be used as a modem, but the sms script battle is lost

Subject:      PQ Connect / DOS apps thru IR instead of COM1?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

I'm trying to get the HPXFER program from Pocket Quicken Connect to use
the palmtop's infrared port to communicate to Quicken via the Aegis
infrared adapter. It seems that HPXFER really wants to use COM1. When I
have Filer set to IR/57600, HPXFER spits out the "Waiting for request..."
notice three times (rather than once) and then nothing happens.

Is there any way to use some DOS trick to make the app use the IR port
instead? I've fooled around with the IRJETEYE.SYS driver (designed to
enable redirecting of LPT1 to the IR port for printing, and had no luck.

Is this perhaps a Windows problem? I'm running Windows 3.1 (under WABI in
Linux), which doesn't have COM port speeds higher than 19200, and the
Aegis unit only seems to work at 57600.

Yes, they still have the 9.95 offer, as that is the service level that I
have. I think that includes 5 hours of on-line time. I was being charged an
additional $5 for acces to the ZDnet site, but I cancelled that (after
paying for it for far too long).

Hope that helps.

I think <g> it is time to appeal to somebody of authority on

Is there a dictionary of colloquial, not technical, acronyms

Two years - don't panic. numbered will word, but they will
send your email to the POP3 mailbox! For now no change. In the
next few weeks, change the SMTP and POP3 server names from
the "x.site1.csi.com" to "x.compuserve.com". (the x is
replaced with smtp and pop.) Right now this seems broken.

Over the next 2 years CS says that csi.com email and
compuserve.com (the alpha, not numeric!) will be mirrored, so
you get it from here or there...

And you have two years to move your correspondents from using
alpha@csi.com to using your alpha@compuserve.com.

Whether they will stay with their promise or not I do not
know, and frankly, don't trust much.

The experience with CSi is not much different than most people
experience with other ISPs who come and go, change, merge, and
split etc.

Yes, you can. You must move the numbered account to "newmail",
then create a POP3 mailbox, then tell CIS to forward the
email from the numbered, non-POP3 email to the POP3 email box.

I saw the post below at the beginning of the week but didn't get around to

the availability of "model CO-29 and CO-69"  'til today.

I assumed that "Ripoff brand" referred to Radio Shack, however they don't
seem to stock
much in that line, and the clerks I spoke with didn't have a clue about the
above model numbers.
I missed the original post, so can someone clue me in regarding what
"Ripoff brand" is?

TIA!

Organizing thoughts, a sermon, a talk, a book, an article, a legal
brief,
a todo list, a project planner, a ...  anything that is more complex
than
one level deep. If it is only one level deep, all you have is a list.

The greater the level of complexity, the greater the necessity of
nesting
and the ability to see only a certain level at a time.

Imagine writing structured code without nesting!! (indents) It could be
done, but strip all the leading spaces and see how readable it is
(actually the
reading is fine, it is the understanding that is difficult. )

Its not so much the WRITING of the above (a word processor/text
editor will do that), but its the ORGANIZATION (the understanding) of
it.

An outliner is to the organization of writing as a hierchical directory
structure
is to the organization of a computer disk, and nesting is to structured
programming.

This means the task "Luau" from 24-JUL-1999 is checked off. It is NOT
the date of the checkoff, but the date of the task so that if there are
several items named "Luau" it is possible to determine which one must
be meant.

So it seems the done date of all of them is 2-AUG-1999, i.e. the last
+. line (time stamp) before the +! lines is 2-AUG-1999.

As of "now" there *is* a photo online.  Take a look at:

If that won't work:

Go to http://igocorp.com
In the left column, under the Keyword Search box, there is a tiny link
marked "Expanded Search"; click it.
In the Search By Catalog Item# box, enter 45183 then hit "Search."

Now that we have the nice purty picture, I'd like to have a bit more.  The
photo and the price ($99) was *all* I could find on the Web site.  If
anyone has luck finding more information, please let us all know!

I can verify these complaint pages; I've had nothing but trouble with
anything I've bought from Fry's.  Let's see, I've had:

(3) bad motherboards; right out of the box (they were shrink-wrapped; too!)
(Fry's does have a policy that they re-shrinkwrap returned items and then
sell them again).
(5) bad CPUs
Untold bad memory SIMMs and DIMMs.
(2) hard drives with OTHER PEOPLE'S DATA on them
(4) defective hard drives

The only reason I go to Fry's now is to comparision shop or test drive
something; as they usually have it on display.  Once I am sure of what I
want to purchase - I go to another store.  MicroCenter is my current
favorite.  PCConnection (mail order, www.pcconnection.com) has also never
steered me wrong.

Avoid Fry's at ALL COSTS.


Bill

Hi Alan & List,

I ask that same question months ago.  Before reading your post I thought
you had found it. (:-(

But anyway use WhereIs instead.

Just found this interesting 200LX FS/FT post on the NG, sounds like a good deal

Hi All:

I'm looking to trade my hp 200lx for a Motorola StarTac Oragnizer (GSM
Version) or a REX 5 Pro. I need something smaller and easier to connect
my StarTac and laptop to.

Here's all the stuff that's included:

1) HP 200LX - 2MB Version
2) 1-2 Meg Flash Disk (IBM)
3) 1-20 Meg Flash Disk (SANDISK)
4)12 issues of the palmtop paper.
5) Connectivity cable and Tansfile win200.
6) Leather Case.
All boxes/manuals included, except for the IBM Flashdisk.


If you want to purchase, the price you offer must be able to cover a
StarTac Organizer w/ case. (I'd prefer the star tac for connectivity
issues).

The organizer's MSRP is $299; however i've seen it for $239 + the price
of the case.

If interested please email me at vinay@mail.banklinksystems.com

Thanks,

Vinay

I doubt there was a causal connection betwwen what those kids
did and the games they played on their computers, but that is my
*personal* opinion, and not meant to solicit a debate on the topic
here...

I suspect the predecesor to Doom, Wolfentsein (I think that was it's
name) would work, given sufficient RAM and a CGA screen...

True Doom requires lots of resources, like floating point math, etc.
I *suspect* that a 80386 processor may be required...

I am curious about the Easter egg mentioned, how do I summon
it on my 100LX (or soon to arrive 200LX)?

Thanks,

Ken

I have seen smart media cards as being 1/2 the cost of compact flash.  I have

media cards.  Can we use the smart media cards in a PCMCIA card adapter in our
HP palmtops?  If so, are there any problems associated with them or any brands
to stay away from.  Do they have better or worse speed and battery drain?

Here are some of the ways I've used an outliner (some have been already
been mentioned by other folks):


- As a name / address / phone book.
  -- Can just enter data anywhere and sort alphanumerically.
  -- If I add categories, I can sort alphanumerically or by category.


- As a database of URLs grouped by category.


- As a freeform database to record ideas or unstructured information.

  -- Could add categores if you wanted to sort/regroup info.


- As a To Do list.

  -- Sometimes organized strictly by priority (1-n) within priority
category (High-Medium-Low) (By Day/Date) (By Tomorrow-Soon-Later-Sometime)

  -- Now organized by priority (1-n) within categories of Soon - Later
-Subject.  My subjects may deal with things to do relating to "Desktop,"
"Laptop," "Palmtop," "Genealogy," "Tropical Fish," "Work," etc.


- As a project manager.

  -- Listing activities or actions required.
  -- Reorganizing activities or actions ito sequence needed.
  -- Assigning milestones.
  -- Assigning responsibilities.
  -- Tracking status and completion.


- As a tool for preparing a briefing.

  -- Listing main points.
  -- Reorganizing and categorizing thoughts.
  -- Adding subordinate info.


- As a tool for solving problems.

  -- Identifying problem.
  -- Listing real issues.
  -- Listing alternatives.
  -- Listing advantages for alternatives.
  -- Listing disadvantages for alternatives.
  -- Assigning values to advantages and disadvantages.


- As a creative tool for generating thoughts.

  -- Brainstorming and listing thoughts.
  -- Reorganizing and categorizing thoughts.
  -- Adding supporting or subordinate info.


- As a creative tool for writing a training manuals.  (See PART 2 for example)

  -- Outlining chapter titles; e.g., General, Principles, Process, Process
Phase "A," Process Phase "B," Process Phase "C."

  -- Adding main topics to be covered; e.g., Overview, Cues, Start Point,
End Point, Procedures

  --  Adding secondary topics for each main topic; e.g., listing actual
tasks for the main topic "Tasks."

  -- Adding supporting items for each item.

  -- Converting info to paragraphs and tables.

  -- Reorganizing outline entries (moving families of topics around if
needed) and having them automatically renumbered.

  -- Hiding entries at lower levels to review higher levels.

  -- It would help to have integrated spellchecking.

(See Part 2 for an example)

Here is an example supporting the description of how I could use an outline
as a tool for creatng a training manual.  The purpose of the example is to
illustrate how the outline enables the writer to build a foundation and
continue adding levels for a framework for a manual or book.

EXAMPLE:

Chapter 1, General
   1.1 Overview
   1.2 Importance
   1.3 Definitions
   1.4 Vision
   1.5 Goals
   1.6 Concepts
   1.7 Strategies
   1.8 Plans
   1.9 Relationships

Chapter 2, Principles
   2.1 Overview
   2.2 Principles (List)
   2.3 Principle 1
       2.3.1 Description
       2.3.2 Application
   2.4 Principle 2
       2.4.1 Description
       2.4.2 Application
...

Chapter 3, Process Model
   3.1 Overview
   3.2 List of Phases
   3.3 Grapic of Model or Relationships of Phases

Chapter 4, Process Phase "A"
   4.1 Overview
   4.2 Cues
      4.2.1 Cue 1
      4.2.2 Cue 2
         4.2.2.1 Example
         4.2.2.1 Non-Example
   4.3 Start Point
   4.4 End Point
   4.5 Tasks
      4.5.1 Task 1
         4.5.1.1 Action
         4.5.1.2 Condition
         4.5.1.3 Standard
         4.5.1.4 Procedures
            4.5.1.4.1 Step 1
            4.5.1.4.2 Step 2
            4.5.1.4.3 Step 3
         4.5.1.5 Performance Measures
            4.5.1.5.1 Measure 1
            4.5.1.5.2 Measure 2
            4.5.1.5.3 Measure 3
         4.5.1.6 Counter-Tasks
      4.5.2 Task 2
         ...
   4.6 Inputs
   4.7 Outputs
   4.8 Quality Control

Chapter 5, Process Phase "B"
...

Chapter 6, Process Phase "C"
...

As you can see, I think an outliner is a valuable tool for organizing
information.  I hope outlining capabilities can be integrated into PE/PIM.

Completely different company. They are looking for Fry's, not Frye.

Fry's, BTW, makes something of a fetish of _not having_ a web page,
IIRC.

Good questions...   To these add one...

What would be the max capacities and cost
of these smart cards?    CFs are 96MB, so far,
at about $200-250.

In your whole list, I found just one thing that you cannot currently do
with PE: automatically numbering items. Is this something that you
really use for anything? Would it be helpful to have something like
that in PE?

Did I overlook anything? I mean: is there anything else on your list
that cannot be done as easily in PE as in an outliner?

As I said: the only "new" thing I see would be automatic numbering. Is
there anything else? Would adding automatic numbering do what you need?

This is a 33.6 modem with an external battery pack.  Although their
advertising touts it as being for Windows CE, their web site states it will
work with the HP 100/200LX.  Price is $115 direct ($179 from CDW!).

www.expnet.com

Has anyone used this modem?  I would assume that with the external battery
pack it would have *no* detrimental effect on the HP's battery life?

Thanks!

Forwarding note from: John Haverland <John.Haverland@den.wantweb.net> 08/09/99 06:37am -0600

Bob Olodort, inventor of the Seiko Smart Label Printer, is at it again
with a soon-to-be-announced full-sized folding keyboard for hand-held
computers.

As told to the Portable Pincer, the keyboard is called Stowaway. Bob
guarantees that it is the "first no-compromise keyboard for hand-held
devices such as the 3Com Palm Pilot and the new Handspring product
from the inventors of the Palm." Bob's new company, Think Outside,
will soon introduce the keyboard, which will sell for less than $100.

The Stowaway keyboard, for which Think Outside has a number of patents
pending, includes the following features:

* 100 percent full-sized keyboard when opened; when closed, measures
3.5" x 4.3" x 0.75" (including protective housing), or about the size
of a Palm III. Weighs only 8 oz.
* Full 19mm pitch (space between keys), both horizontally and
vertically (the same as desktop keyboards), which conforms to the
ISO/IEC 9995 standard.
* Full 3mm key travel (the distance the key travels downward when it's
pressed) with superb tactile feedback.
* Standard QWERTY layout with 69 keys; includes special keys for Palm
functions such as Address Book, To Do List, Memo, Calendar, Shortcut,
Done, Backlight, and others.
* Built-in docking station for all Palm products.
* Ultra-low profile design makes wrist supports unnecessary.
* Made of glass-filled polycarbonate and aluminum for high durability.
* Sealed switches for resistance to the elements.
* No batteries or cables required.

For more information, contact Think Outside at 203-625-0082.

Subject:      WWWLX and HV on Ethernet

Hi

A quick question on using WWWLX and HV with an Accton Ethernet card.

I've got WWWLX set up to talk to my local LAN, I can Ping to an IP address
and to a DNS name, so I know that side is working OK, but HV just goes into
retrieving then shows a tmp001.html!

Looking at the Ethernet it call the DNS, then issues a GET command, but
then just stops, while the proxy continues to call the HP, but HV does not
respond?

I'm running the latest versions (WWW 2.1c and HV 2.2a).

Has anybody else managed to run HV over a WAN?

Regards

This is probably for Curtis...

I ran DBCHECK over one of my databases, and it reports:

Error: a data record contained an invalid value
Error: a view point table points to non-existent data records.

If I look at the file in List under Filer, I can see that there seems to
be some misspelled words. For instance what looks like it should be
"subset" says "bset". But I don't see any weird characters.

If I open the file in Memo, it is totally garbled. (Formatting I
suppose??)

How can I go about cleaning up this database?

P.S.   The database actually WORKS fine for me. I've had no problems.
It's just that DBCHECK reports these errors, and so I'm a little
concerned about backing up bad data.

Help!!!    If you recall, my son was angry that I had to go to work
one  night that he broke the whole right side hinge of my new 64MB
200LX.  I still had my trusty 2MB 200LX (that I upgraded to 5MB/Dbl
Spd), so I have started using it again.  I've loaded Software Carosel
onto a PCMCIA card - but I'm really tired of how slow it is.  I live in
Indonesia, so it is tough to have it worked on.

My daughter just came here with her 1MB 100LX - so now I've got a home
hobby job on my hands.  I would like some help on how to change
screens and keyboards around.  What I would like to do is to move the
screen from the 5MB onto the 64MB; and the screen (black color) from
the 100LX to the 5MB.  That way I would have two good 200 LX's, and
one broken screened 100LX.  The newer (64) Palmtop's screen seems a
little bit brighter than the older one, so I would probably want to
take the screen out of the frame and put it in another frame - if it's
not that hard.  I also have a couple sticky keys on two of the
palmtops, so I would like to clean the keyboards.  I would really
appreciate any suggestions, or help, on how to change the screens or
clean the keyboards.

Thanks for everything,
Steve Soper

Hi

Does anyone have a spare one of these neat little modems they'd like to sell
me? They were discontinued a couple of years ago but I'd love to get my
hands on one now. For those that don't know, they were 14.4k (IIRC - they
may have been 9600) external modems powered by a 9V battery and worked
pretty seamlessly with my old palmtop (a Psion 3a). I mainly want it for
email so I don't really want to shell out for the 56k ones that have
recently appeared on the market.

I'm in the UK, but I still have a US bank account left over from when I
lived there, so if I could pay in US$ if anyone in the States has one.

cheers

Jeremy

Hello everyone:

I had my 200LX charging with the clamshell open next to my
bedroom telephone this morning.  Got a phone call and bam!
faster than I could catch it, the formerly drop-proof LX was
lying screen/keyboard down on the carpetless floor.  (I told the
person on the phone I'd call them back.)
8-(
The top 3/8" of the screen is pretty dead -- it now only
displays a vertical line continuation if the functional part of
the screen has one.   No other image to speak of aside from
that.  The computer seems fine aside from that section of blank
screen.

Is this fixable at home?  Or should I let a pro handle it?

thanks.
Ed

BTW my hinge crack also re-opened after KrazyGlue had held it
for months.

I haven't used this modem, but a search on www.shopper.com turns up lots of
places that carry it (most of them out of stock) for $74 - $85.  You might want
to look there when (and if)  you've committed to buy.

Does sound interesting... a PCMCIA 33.6 modem that'll accept an external backup
battery source.

This is a 33.6 modem with an external battery pack.  Although their
advertising touts it as being for Windows CE, their web site states it will
work with the HP 100/200LX.  Price is $115 direct ($179 from CDW!).

www.expnet.com

Has anyone used this modem?  I would assume that with the external battery
pack it would have *no* detrimental effect on the HP's battery life?

Hi

Has anyone here managed to install the EndNote viewer described on the Niles
software homepage www.endnote.com/home/App_Note6.htm? Each time I try to run
it I get the error

EndNote encountered fatal internal error and must quit.
Error is: error #-36

According to the page, it is possible to run this software on an HP100, so
I'm not sure why my HP200 has problems.

EndNote is a reference management program that is extremely useful in
writing scientific papers, or anything where you need a formatted
bibliography at the end. There are desktop versions for PC and Mac, and this
viewer lets you take your bibliographic databases with you, and add small
numbers of extra references when you're away from the desk (very handy in a
library). At least, it would if I could get it up and running....

cheers

Jeremy

I thought the alcohol treatment was to "fix" loose hinges where the HP
lid/screen would not stay in a fixed position but slowing drop down to
horizontal.  I thought it was a drop or two of oil to make the hinge
less "tense!"

Try George McCourt at 1-800-705-8100. I think he still has some US Robotics

EGA? I'm pretty sure it requires VGA. IIRC, ID software started on the EGA
version but then scrapped it in favour of a VGA-only version.

It would be interesting to get the source-code to some of ID's earlier 3D
efforts (Catacomb Abyss for instance), they were EGA but not CGA...

Check out the new version from http://cameron.hplx.net. The older one
reported some problems that were not really problems, including your
second one above.

To find out more about the first one above, run DBCHECK with the "/d"
switch, and see what data record contains the bad value. It's probably
a date field with data that doesn't produce a date, or a time field
with an invalid time.

By the way, the problems with the previous version were:

1. It would report that a view point table pointed to non-existent
data records, but this sometimes happens when a data item is deleted.
The new version checks for corruption by just verifying that a view
doesn't point to records with an index number above the largest data
index number. Also, with WDB files, all those 480 or so default cities
are not actually stored in the file, but the file looks like it has
deleted records in it.

2. It would report that a file had more records than it expected. I
believe this is due to using FASTDB.TSR, which does garbage collection
on a file only occasionally, so the file might really have a few more
records than expected, but this is normal. The new version mentions
the "error" still, but notes the FASTDB thing, and sets the errorlevel
value to 2 instead of 3

>If I open the file in Memo, it is totally garbled. (Formatting I
>suppose??)

The data files are in binary format, not text. Your text data is in
there somewhere, but there is a lot of binary description of the
fields, subsets, smart clips, etc. that are just binary numbers.

>How can I go about cleaning up this database?

=46irst, use the new version to see if you need to.

Saw the recent postings about the Worldport modem.I bought one this week on

Is there any record to claim here ?

If you don't edit the same files in the two SC sessions, you can ignore
the warning. If you happen to edit the same file in both sessions, you
will lose the edits from the PE which you save or exit first.

I don't think this can be done automatically at all. How can a program

So there is a proxy, right? What if you don't use the proxy but try a
HTTP server on the local network? Have you configured WWW/LX to use the
HTTP proxy? If yes, it might be that the proxy does not work with
WWW/LX. There unfortunately is not a single HTTP proxy mechanism and
WWW/LX does not support all of them.

Yes, many!

I guess PIM/PE won't recognize that as a date anymore, so you'd better
don't do that.

On my todo list for PE there is an item to have PE display (not enter
into the text, just display) the day of week that belongs to a date.
Would that be working for you?

If there are separate mailboxes, just download the "personal" mailbox
only. If all mail is put into the same mailbox (i.e. the different
names are just aliases for the same mailbox), there is no "nice" way to
only get those messages belonging to one alias. Maybe the best thing is
to download headers only and filter them so that all messages with the
alias you want go into one folder. In that folder, mark all messages
for download on the next run, in the original box, delete all headers
(locally) because those messages are not for you.

It would be nice if the POP3 protocol allowed you to download only
messages that match a certain criteria, but it does not.

In Linux exists a program called pdf2txt (or similar) that does this job.
I think it should be possible to port this to dos (as it was possible with pppd
etc.). Andreas G., do you know how to do that?

Talk to the ISP and find out the POP3 Login format to get specific
e-mail. Suppose your domanin is staber.isp.net. I assume you will just
have the one password.

Probably

Login=staber.isp.net
will get *all* mail in one POST/LX e-mail box

Login=hp+staber.isp.net or hp+staber or hp@staber.isp.net or something
along these lines (depends on the ISP) will get all email addressed to
hp@staber.isp.net in one POST/LX e-mail box

Normally with this arrangement the ISP will allow "unlimited email
addresses"

Jeremy,

try giving Pace a call in the UK (0990 561001 - main switchboard or 0870
0718191 - technical dept.).   I bought a factory refurbished one
(14.4K) from the technical support department a couple of months ago for
around 30UKP (I think.... that may have been plus tax/post) - I seem to
remember they said they had a couple more in the stock room.   These are
nice units (have long battery life compared to my AT&T one which lasts 20
Mins if I'm lucky) and I use mine all over the world without probs...

For anyone who already has one of these, Pace still have some spares for
them (I got my original unit repaired at the same time as I bought the new
one - that'll teach me to email in the middle of a thunderstorm!!).


Best regards,

Condor

I looked for this about a year ago and found nothing. However I did find =
a
service on the Web that would take your PDF file, convert it to text or
HTML and beam it back to you.  It seemed to work pretty well. However it
took several tries before understanding how to do it.

The alcohol treatment was for _him_ not for the Hp ;-)) A drop is not

Bad news about Pace I'm afraid - I just tried to ring them and got a
recorded message saying that they had ceased trading, and that all queries
about their range should be directed to "your local PC dealer". There's
nothing about this on their website, but it looks like I won't be able to
pick one up from the manufacturer.

Time to register myself for eBay I guess...

You need to give more information. What kind of email files do you want to
transfer. Are they ascii? html? If they are unix mailbox format you can
transfer them over using laplink remote and read them in PNR.

1. Open up FINDER.ENV in Memo.

2. Look for the line that defines the "Editor setting". It's near the top of the
file and begins with "%e".

3. Change the line to read:
%e(TAB),b800(TAB),r||me
(Replacing "(TAB)" in the above with a real tab character.)

4. Save and close, then open X-Finder (or press ÝF1¨ to reset X-Finder if it is
already running). Memo is now your default editor.

I guess you could also make Memo your default viewer by changing the "Viewer
setting" definition to:

%v(TAB),b800(TAB),r||me

...but that kind of defeats the purpose of having separate Editor and Viewer
definitions. Maybe you should try LX Quick Viewer from SUPER (
http://www.thaddeus.com/ftp/quickv.zip) as your default Viewer?

The fragments of a PDF that are actually responsible for Text display
are generally in a particular form of PostScript that Adobe has
chosen to use inside PDFs. While it is reasonably straightforward to
extract these pieces, you then end up with PostScript `text' which can
be quite complex.

Depending on how accurately you need to render the text one can
make some simplifications and directly strip the text into what may,
for some purposes, be an acceptable copy. You might also find that
GhostScript is willing, in some of its later versions, to handle
PDF files directly. On the other hand, finding a good recent GhostScript
that will run under DOS may be just as big a problem as the one you
are starting with.

What you are asking for is, it its general form, a _very complex_ piece
of software, probably the reason that Adobe chose to drop DOS versions
from the supported platforms between V1 and V2.

Cliff,

GhostScript/Ghostview are a pdf/ps viewer/converter. They are available
at http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost . In the gs5.50 subdirectory are 2 bat
files pdf2ps and ps2ascii. Using these bat files you can convert pdf to
ascii but there are no 16 bit DOS versions of these programs, only 32
bit DOS programs.

HTH,
Tom

As I told before: there _IS_ a PDF2TXT or PDF2ASC
program in Linux. Including the source code.
To convert PDF to Text needs no IO and IRQ stuff etc.
So where's the problem? It was possible to port
PPPD to DOS. Why shouldn't it be possible with
PDF2TXT?

This doesn't seem like a very specific request. There are many ways to do
what you depending upon your available resources and limitations. I use
Nettamer to dial into the internet and download mail from my office server
via the POP mail protocol. I also have a PC card reader and put my flash RAM
card in to transfer files. I'm sure that the list can produce at least a
dozen other neat ways to do both.

No!

Andreas

(note that DOS has a maximum of 640k available and a PDF interpreter
needs much more than that, so "porting" is about the same effort as
writing it from scratch)

The message "PE already open Ignore/Abort" comes up even after
rebooting, when it is guaranteed that it is NOT open in any
area. How does this come about ?

No need for software.on the palmtop

To convert your pdf file to text, just email it to
pdf2txt@sun.trace.wisc.edu, and the robot will email it right back to you
as text.  To convert the same file to html, email it to
pdf2html@sun.trace.wisc.edu, and you'll get it back with pretty much the
same original format (but without graphics).   I picked up this
information from the ng a few weeks ago before I moved to my new home.
I notice that the text result is messy, but the html result is nicely
formated (it even preserves the hypertext jumps, though within a single
file only).  When I find time, I plan to have a pdf file converted to
html, then convert that on my pc to text, just to see if I can get better
results with the text.  YMMV

I am not sure I understand. If the white space needs to be retained,
what is left that the program could possibly do?

Either it has to leave

   xxx
   yyy
   zzz

as

   xxx
   yyy
   zzz

or it can convert it to

   xxx yyy zzz

What else could it do???

I purchased a 40 meg card that I'm very happy with.  It is a full size
card, not a compact flash type that needs an adaptor.

The only caveat is that mine had a bunch of junk read-only files on it
that were tedious to delete, since I had to use attrib on each
subdirectory's files before I could delete them.  (I wasn't sure if I
could just reformat the card or not, so I did it the hard way.)

But the price was right and the service fast!

The way the list is set-up it is quite easy to do this. POST/LX

Not for me :)

These entries in my post.cfg automatically send my replies to the list
just to the list, and use my nospam mailbox.

Subject: Lotus hangs LX under SC

David:

Perhaps you can point me in the right direction to solve a problem, as
you know quite a bit about the HP LXs.  I've already scanned old
newsgroups with dejanews and also the HPLX-L archives without getting
a good hit.

I'm running Software Carousel on a 64 MB double speed palmtop that I
just got from Thaddeus.  I have a major problem:  I can start System
Manager from within a SC work area, and then go to the Application
Manager and start Lotus 1-2-3 from its icon.  I can then open a .wk1
file (doesn't seem to matter which one).  I can move around the
spreadhseet with the arrow keys.

But when I try to modify a value, the whole machine locks up! Nothing
changes at all on the Lotus screen.  I can't switch to another work
area.  C-A-D doesn't work.  Shift-Ctrl-On gets me back to the
"Initialize RAM disk?" question, and I've been fortunate to have no
errors chkdsking afterwards.  I get this behavior after booting and
directly performing these steps, as well as after having used the
machine for a while for other things.  It occurs every time.

OTOH, if I boot the machine and go directly to the System Manager and
run Lotus, all is well.  I only get the hang when running in a SC
work area.

FWIW, here are my config.sys and autoexec.bat files:

device=c:\t2t\spd31.exe /c
device=c:\t2t\rdt2t.exe
device=c:\t2t\tremm.exe /h=4
lastdrive=t
buffers=20
files=30
fcbs=1,0
break=on
shell=d:\dos\command.com d:\dos /e:512 /p

@echo off
set dircmd=/ogned
path f:\bin;c:\bin;d:\bin;c:\dos;d:\dos;f:\sc;f:\wwwlx
prompt Spock $p$g
set emacs=f:\freemacs\

Where can I go from here?  Any suggestion at all would be appreciated.

It sure would.  You could also just format the card, or do a format /q for

Well, to be honest :) sometimes with GP it puts one address and sometimes

Actually, it could be ported, but would run very slowly.  The best
option might be to get pdftotext to compile on a 16-bit compiler.
See http://www.opengroup.org/infosrv/PDF/xpdf/ for
"xpdf-0.80-win.zip" and read "Readme2".  There is source code that
already works with DOS, but it was created for a 32bit compiler.

There's an x86/Win31/Win95/WinNT port, from Michael Richmond, of
pdftotext and pdftops, part of the XPDF PDF software package.  The
source includes Win32 makefiles, but the included pdftotext.exe and
pdftops.exe executables run in DOS:
ftp://ftp.foolabs.com/pub/xpdf/xpdf-0.80-win.zip
http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/

To generate a plain text file, run pdftotext:

  pdftotext file.pdf


txt2pdf is Text-To-PDF software for DOS with TP7/BP7 source:
http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Peaks/6789/pdfindex.html

Misc. PDF to text conversion info:
http://www.empowermentzone.com/acc_pdf.txt

There used to be mail servers setup to accept documents for PDF
conversion, but I don't know if they still work:

pdf2txt@adobe.com
pdf2txt@sun.trace.wisc.edu
pdf2html@adobe.com
pdf2html@sun.trace.wisc.edu

There are several web sites that will convert to/from PDF.

convert PDF to text:
http://access.adobe.com

convert PDF to 94 image formats:
http://www.handmade.com/hsi/web_alchemyps.html

convert PDF to ps:
http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~laird/PDF/pdf2ps

online distiller converts ps files to PDF:
http://www.babinszki.com/distiller/

The tools at http://www.pdfzone.com are excellent.

There's DOS software called Image Alchemy that will convert a PDF to
one of 94 graphic formats.  Unfortunately, it's a 32bit program that
requires a 386 machine.  One web page says that the demo, Alchemy.exe,
is a 16 bit DOS executable, so perhaps it will work on the HP-200LX
(but farther down the page, it lists a 386 in the requirements). See:
http://www.handmade.com/hsi/installpc.html

pj is a free, open source Java class library for parsing,
manipulating, and creating Adobe PDF files:  http://www.etymon.com/pj/

retep, another Java PDF library:  http://www.retep.org.uk/pdf/

Maybe HTMLDOC could be ported:  http://www.easysw.com/~mike/htmldoc/

PDFprint can print to ascii.  It uses Perl 5.0, so maybe Perl for DOS
could be used to port it:

Subject:      How to map a palmtop drive to a windows machine

I know this has come up before, and I don't think there ever
was an answer.  I'm new to Windows connectivity via NETBIOS
on the palmtop (all my connectivity is usually to Unix
machines or via TCP/IP), so maybe this is old hat ...

I have found a way to map a palmtop drive (i.e. my 32MB C:
drive) onto a Windows95 machine so that I can see the palmtop
as just another drive in windows explorer.  Yep - map the
palmtop drive onto the windows machine, not the windows drive
onto the palmtop (which I think is what's commonly done
now).

The procedue is quite involved, and I'm not sure if it's
repeatable yet, so I'm asking for "alpha testers" to help me
get the procedure into a state where others can use it.

So, if you know your way around a protocol.ini file, and
already have your palmtop set up as a Windows95 client as
described in the Accton networking article on www.hplx.net,
then drop me a line and I'll try to explain to you how to
reproduce the process.

Hi Brian.   An InfoSelect junkie here.   8-)
You are trying to tempt me, aren't you?  ;-)    If you can implement
those features, I would only add  to your list the ability to add
structure to the ramdom information.  InfoSelect does it with the Form
command, the hypercard command, and with suggestions for including clues,
such as **important text**, etc.  I am not sure which to suggest to you
(I have used all of the above, but my favorite is hypercard).  Maybe you
could come up with something entirely original.  :-)
As far as text based files, I have noticed that InfoSelect keeps binary
info to a bare minimum, but it is still there.  I don't know if that's a
factor for the speed, but it certainly helped me to piece information
back together when I corrupted some files long ago.

Good luck with your upgrade.

Hello HPLX compatriots

I have two 200LXs and have successfully copied files from one to the
other using FILER and the IR ports. The contents of each 200LX are
identical. What I'd like to be able to do is transfer only changed
files to keep each unit up to date with each other.  I know XCOPY will
do this but I haven't been able to do any IR transfers except from
FILER.

Does anybody know how to do this or even if it's possible?

Go to ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/crypt/ and look for idea3a.zip.

Not that I am aware of. All the email comes down before
Post/LX looks at the specifics.

You can filter email and send it to one folder or another
based on the email address, then delete what you do not need.
You will also then have to make sure to NOT delete email items
that are to be read by others, and somehow delete the ones
that are your own (CTRL-D will do the trick.)

FYI, in dasoft.com there are two types of addresses:

1. Just an alias - i.e. the email addresses are really
aliases, e.g. a@dasoft.com and b@dasoft.com are the
same email address (i.e. one password for both.) There may be
a totally different login for the aliases, e.g. z@dasoft.com
with a@dasoft.com and b@dasoft.com being aliases to z. You
must login to z to get the email.

2. There is a distinct login, say q@dasoft.com. In this case,
q has a login and password, which is different from a, b, and
z in the prior example.

In the second case the separation is really easy: You just
make an email folder for the distinct login, provide the info
and that email box will be separately managed by Post/LX.

In the case of #1 the only mechanism is filtering.

Now that I have a larger card I d/led the papyrus demo last

This is another capability that would be great.  I've seen some text
editors that performed a word wrap at a settable number of characters from
the left margin.  Some performed the word wrap formatting on the file
itself after a command to do so for a line, paragraph, or entire docment
(they usually required a line space between paragraphs)(perhaps Semware's
QEdit?).  I believe another editor (perhaps LapEdit or LapWrite that
shipped with LapLink 4.0 for DOS) performed the wordwrap only for the
on-screen display without modifying the file's actual line length.

Usually just a lurker, not an expert, but your setup
is similar to mine, and I have no problem. How much
memory have you allocated to that SC work area? Mine
is 532k, which I think is the maximum I have available
for any one area.

Subject:      OFF-TOPIC: A SMALL PROJECT

   Traditional Irish Music is a hobby. I have PlayQABC (a Dos
program to play ABC format music on the PC 's speaker) on my HP200LX. The
ABC notation is text in format, so I have several hundred tunes stored
with small space penalty, and play them as an aid to learning them in my
spare time.
   In addition to playing the ABC tunes, the software has a provision for
generating a tuning tone of A=440 hertz. My question is:Is there software
available to generate other pure tones? For example, is there an existing
program to generate an alternative tuning pitch, say of A=442 hz or
A=438hz?
   And, for that matter, since trad tunes are best on a Just Tempered
scale as opposed to an Equal Temperament Scheme (some call it an Equally
Distempered Scale Scheme)
some software to create all the notes of a Just Tempered
Scale?
                                                    Cheers,
                                                    Bob Perron

In POST, when replying the easiest way is to just hit 'T' to reply to the
To: address or 'F' from the From: address.

Actually, I lied (but not on purpose) <blush>. It does reply to both

From what you say, I assume your example got "corrupted" during
transfer. Am I right that you want to say (I use "-" instead of spaces)

---aaa-bbb-ccc-ddd
---eee-fff-ggg-hhh

should become

---aaa-bbb-ccc
---ddd-eee-fff
---ggg-hhh

when reformated, e.g. the indentation should be ignored (e.g. removed
before formatting and added again when done)?

I guess this could lead to a nice mess too. Consider:

-1-Introduction
---1.1-Definitions-and-other-stuff
---1.2-Why-elefants-are-bigger-than-mice
-2-Historical-Considerations

Reformatted:

-1-Introduction-1.1
---Definitions-and
---other-stuff-1.2
-Why-elefants-are
-Bigger-than-mice-2
-Historical-Considerations

Actually, when doing that manually, I did not know how far I should
indent which line because there are now more lines...

I am not sure what you want to suggest. This is all implemented in PE for
quite a while already (with the exception of breaking a single line).

It is a main concept of PE that it displays what's in a file (with the
exception of graphics additions for PIM files). So I don't want to make
PE show stuff that is not there (such as line wrappings).

Do you know that attrib can work recursively?

in the root directory type attrib -r /s
to remove all read-only flags from all files in all subdirectories.

You have no idea how nice it was to run "dbcheck *.?db" and get No

Thanks Curtis.

With pnr, if the addressses take up more than one line e.g.

Reply to:<HpLX List>list@list.isp,
   <My private name>me@myisp

When I reply with my brilliant addition to the thread, only the first line
appears in the TO: field of the email dialog box,ended with a comma. Normally
I just erase the comma. This is a really minor bug (feature?) as in most cases
I ONLY want to send to the list and not to the previous person on the thread

are apparently more serious than others, and all files were functioning. I

I now use Curtis' program in a batch file each night when backing up.

Have others experienced a high level of corruption?  (I am always changing

<<Could this keyboard be adapted to work for us?

Bob Olodort, inventor of the Seiko Smart Label Printer, is at it again
with a soon-to-be-announced full-sized folding keyboard for hand-held
computers.>>

As it happens, one of the principals of the company is a former PTP
subscriber and used to work for Apple with the Newton.  We have been in
email contact since the idea was conceived several years ago.  He promised
to send me a unit in Sept -- as soon as he has them. Hopefully, Mack or
someone else can write the driver, and we can get David Shier to make some
cables.

Howdy all....

Is there any LX util that can take apart what seems to be a post-script file
and make it into comma delimited ASCII or *anything* the LX can read. Heck,
I don't even know how to read this file w/ my PC!

Someone exported a mailing list for me.  They use what looks like a tailored
app. for FoxPro. The output looks like:

%!PS-Adobe-3.0

It goes on and on ... I won't take any more bandwidth with this one.
It's got "stringtype" definitions and all sorts of junk; then the actual
DATA is couched in "junk" that looks like the above.  I didn't see any easy
way to use a word processor or anything to filter out stuff....

My ideal answer would be to strip out all the stuff and make it into
something I could import into the built-in address book....

Sounds like a pretty normal PS file. Unless FoxPro writes it in some
unusually obscure fashion, you may find it easy to write a PERL
program that will strip the file to `somewhat legible' contents.

Typical PS files have the text enclosed in `(  ....  )'. Although
parenthesis may be used for other things as well, you sometimes get
a pretty good approximation by just throwing away everything outside
of parens (except CR/LF) and reproducing everything inside parens.

Of course, the actualities _may_ be much more complicated, in which
case this simple technique may not be of any use. However, in my
experience, it usually works well for a wide range of files.

 To: All -

 All:

 CompuServe is terminating its shareware registration program (SWREG) eff=
ective December 31, 1998.  Because of that and since there's little Buddy=
 discussion here anymore, I've decided to close my CompuServe account in =
a few days.  Or is it AOL? (g)

I want to thank all of you for your support, both with encouraging me to =
write and improve Buddy and with answering many Buddy-related questions i=
n this forum.

I have no plans to release another Buddy, although there's still a glimme=
r of hope for a minor update.  But, I've been saying that for almost two =
years now, so who knows?  If I ever find a machine that's better than the=
 100/200LX, I'll probably write something for it.  Maybe the rumored Mac =
consumer portable in 1999?   (But Macs need no improvement :-).

I'm still available full-time for Buddy questions at: info@buddy.com

The Buddy Web site is:

       http://www.buddy.com/

I don't think that helps. What I suspect is the news server. I read the
messages here on Dave's news server and it seems it removes leading
spaces.

If in the top line "Refmt" is displayed, it means that text is
reformatted so that as much text as possible fits onto the screen.
Press ALT-F to toggle that.

This depends on the above setting.

What is "list ident"? I guess that is a problem that cannot be solved
automatically.

unfortunately, yes. :-(

Maybe a useful improvement to the current state would be if
indentations were just removed before formatting. That way, at least
the "big spaces" within the lines would vanish.

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Andreas,

My vacation is over :-( and PE/PIM is operational as main and only
PIM replacing APPT.

First thing I had to do was to write the activity report of the
B.U. of Austria for headquarters - therefore I had to check all done items
of July.

In PIM.CFG I created the following view :

; checking done items
Ýc¨
View=1    list view
Type=3    done tasks
Sort=0    by time
Time=1

I'd like to have a possibility to see in this list the
appointments which I have checked off as well.
I know I can do that with ÝCtrl+C +! Enter¨ - but this gives me
a list with the check-off date at the end and not at the
beginning of each line (fancy optics).

In addition this Ýc¨ view sorts the items by assigned date and
not by check-off date - this does not work for me as I need to
know the day when the items have been done.
OTOH the priority column for me is irrelevant - I only do
important tasks (g).

Do you happen to have a workaround ?

Not really. I guess you need to stick to the rule that you have to
enter all relevant data *on the same line*. Otherwise, you see the
name, but have no clue what it is all about. And you need to put all data
you have *into the same file*, otherwise you won't find it. And you
must not have too much data, otherwise the file is too large and...

Anyway, if you want to do everything in exactly the same way you always
did - with the same limitations-, do it. No need for any new tools for
that. ;-)

I figured out the templates... You use the Port command to receive a
standard textfile, and use F10 to select one of the templates. It brings
the template into the outline.

I noticed that there is a 123 Commands template in there.

I really like working from outlines, and this one looks very nice. I'll
play around with this some more, and if I really like it, then I think
I'll create a macro to link to it from my ToDo database. (I currently
have a macro to link to Memo specifically for the purpose of using the
outline feature of Memo for taking notes.)

Do you happen to know how to utilize those nifty templates that come
with ThinkTank?

        Outliner Guru Dave Winer has arranged to make several outliners
available at
        www.outliners.com. Think Tank is one of the outliners that
Symmantec has
        kindly made available. Anyway, I've installed it on my HP200lx
and it runs
        fine. If you've never experienced a real outliner. try this.
Although Lotus

Tank is
        great for thinking your way through projects.

I have a phone book with email addresses in the Alternate phone book field.

At various times I have tried moving the info to other programs such as
Schedule+, Lotus Organizer, using Intellysinc. The information does not get
transfered because the other program expects numeric info or a fixed length
field (10 characters).

Is there an easy way to move, from my 700 entry phone book, all of the
email addressses from the Alternate phone field to another (non-numeric)
field in the standard phone book, or to a new field that I could create in
a customized phonebook.

TIA

Alan

Think Tank was the first outliner I have ever used, back in
1986. Out of ThinkTank emerged Grand View. It is fast and
nice, but I miss many features in it.

Thanks, Rod, for something :) I just wanted to add that
Post/LX has at least two ways to reply, germaine to this
discussion: R and T.

R uses the addresses in the "Reply-To" header of the message
being responded to.

T uses the address in the "To:" header of the message being
responded to.

Seems to me that there are at least three very capable email
programs available for our "dead" platform :-) ... (I guess
at least 4, including NetTamer, which I understand has good
email...)

I am reading and responding to this from the Hall of
Philosophy at Chautauqua, NY. I have been on a trip away from
home since the end of June, and will be still away until the
end of August. So far I can count the following places from
where I logged in:

New Jersey, London, Winterthur (Switzerland), Vienna,
Inter-Alps train between Vienna and Zurich, North Conway in New
Hapmshire (hotel and a MBE shop), Corning in NY, Chautauqua in
NY. Before I get home, I'll have more: Probably New York City,
Newark Airport in New Jersey, Chicago (probably two
locations).

In all cases I had few or no problems to connect, using
Compuserve nodes, and the palmtop. I use WWW/LX Plus of
course.

Also I just counted that I wrote 935 emails, including
support, product registrations, newsgroups, D&A Beta, and
other emails. All of this on the palmtop. So much for "dead"
:) ...

I want IR on my Cellular phone! :)

I forgot to add that I reply from the newsgroup version of the list.
Only then is specification of a mailbox necessary. Also the newsgroup
headers are different to the regular e-mail list.

No ideas, but I was able to cause a hang, as follows:

Clean boot, just to be repeatable.
Open Buddy, and System Manager in WA #1
Open Lotus, and a very simple spreadsheet.
Clt-2 into WA 2.  Run a batch file (Prints a menu), then open the Collins
Dictionary with another batch file.
Ctl-3 into WA 3.  Run Chkdsk, Mem, & whateverelse is stock in WA 3.
Run the menu batch file and open HisWord with a batch file.
Ctl-1 back to WA 1, and part of the Lotus spread sheet is gibberish.
Ctl-Alt-Del worked just fine.
I did it twice, just to be sure.

Funny.  I use 1-2-3 a lot, and had never had a problem.  Maybe I never
switched WA's while I was in 1-2-3.

Is it a bug, or a feature?

My guess is that this is the infamous "Filer screen bug, Lotus version"

When you get back to WA 1 and Lotus, press the App Manager (More key). Now
go back to Lotus.  I think things will be OK.

The other place the problem shows up is the bottom of the Top Card screen
can get garbled.

Quite right!  I returned to WA 1, in Lotus, to see garbage.  Pressed & (well,
shift-&, since I have Buddy swapping the keys) and got to App Manager.
Pressing the 123 key put me back in Lotus, with everything a-right.

Thanks for the quick solution.  I hope the original questioner was doing
something like that as well.

Easy is relative! (G)

You can use dbutil.zip (gdbdump/load) and dump ascii data.  Create a new
file and add the new field, dummy up the comma delimited file with a new
field for each record for that old alt-phone-num.  Import the whole mess
back into the new (modified file)  You will need to create a new header
record.

You will probably see errors if you use FASTDB, but you can safely
ignore them. FASTDB intentionally leaves some extra records in the
file, which DBCHECK reports.

I recommend FASTDB and use it myself. If you use a batch file to do
your backups, you can separate these errors from serious ones by
checking for errorlevel 3.

Will IntelliSync read a non-standard 200LX file?=20

If it will, it's easier than described above. Start with your phone
file, and open it with the database app instead of the phone app. Then
modify the database, and rename the Alternate phone field to another
name, which I assume would cause IntelliSync to treat it as text
instead of a phone number.

If it won't read general database files, then you're stuck with the
field definitions in the LX. If there is a field you're not now using
(the "Title" field for argument's sake), then you can use GDBDUMP and
GDBLOAD to swap the Title and Alternate Phone fields. First, GDBDUMP
to a text file, then with a text editor, swap the names on the first
line, substituting "&Alternate" for "T&itle" and vice-versa. You don't
need to modify any other lines. Then GDBLOAD that text file back into
the LX file.

I have written a text formatting program that formats lists,
retaining indentation.  (You give it a right margin; it assumes
that leading tabs represent 8 display columns.  I am also
working on enhancements that convert rtf to nroff, memo .doc to
nroff and nroff to memo .doc.)

Anyway, it recognizes a list item as anything that begins with
optional whitespace (the indentation) and one of the following:

   any combination of i,v,x,I,V,X followed by ), ., or -
      (Roman numerals)
   any single character 0xf9-0xfe, 0x07, 0, O, *, -
   one or two of 0-9, a-z, A-Z followed by ), ., or -

followed by whitespace.  If a list will be longer than one line,
it indents subsequent lines by the indentation string plus
enough blanks to start it under the first word on the first
line.

It seems to me an editor could do this in real time: if the
typist starts a line with "- ", for example, the editor could
know this is a list entry, and then when the typist reaches the
right margin the editor could start the next line with "  "
(two spaces).

It's not perfect: if you end a sentence with a two-letter word
and that word happens to be at the beginning of a line, then
that line will look like a list entry.  Likewise if you end a
sentence with "vixi." or "12." or anything that looks like a
number.  But if the editor were to make an innocent mistake like
that, the typist should be able to correct it by backspacing or
otherwise deleting the whitespace that appears at the beginning
of the line.

Did you try to force a "screen redraw?"  That is, SC (depending on
version, etc) will not store certain screens well and when returning to
sysmgr, screens might be "messed-up."  Switching to another sysmgr app,
I go to the HP-Setup sometimes, restores things.  123 in the hp, under
sysmgr may have these same redraw problems.  Did the HP actually lock up
or could you switch away from it to another session?

I believe that's the one that has just a regular modem cable.  I like the
Simple Technologies 33.6 Communicator because it has the "SimpleJack"
connector, a very handy thing.  Simlar to X-Jack, but removable, so it can
get lost, but it allows the phone cable to plug in horizontally, and is
replaceable, so breaking the phone jack doesn't break the modem itself.

And the modem only uses 124ma in my palmtop.

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

The setup I talked about the other day for mapping a HP200LX as a
drive on a Windows95 is now in alpha testing, and two other people
have been able to replicate the setup.

It requires a number of entries in the config.sys file, which I'm not
happy about (I want to be able to enable and disable the HP side of
things without permanently taking up precious low memory space because
most of the time I use packet driver applications).

Is there anyone on the list who knows about NDIS/ODI/IPX/LSL and how to
set up an installation of LANMAN or MSCLIENT that only requires
IFSHLP.SYS in the config.sys file, with all other things being loaded
on the command line ?

I know it can be done for a Novell setup (LSL, PCMMLID, IPXODI, NETX
with a NET.CFG file).

One option I'm looking at is using the ODI setup from the Novell stuff
(LSL, PCMMLID, then using some NDIS-over-ODI shim, then running
MSCLIENT on the shim), but this seems to need stuff in the config.sys
also.

Another option is to run some sort of ODI-over-PacketDriver or
NDIS-over-PacketDriver shim and then running the MSCLIENT stuff on top
of it.

The trouble is that I don't know enough about NDIS/ODI/IPX to work out
how to do this stuff.

So if there are any gurus who know about this, please email me.

Hi--I am using a Worldport 2400 modem with a HP200LX,or trying to !
It dials,then there's the handshaking,the HP screen says the connection is
made,then all goes quiet for a couple of seconds,then the HP tells me "the
connection could not be established".
Checking the worldport manual,it says to switch #3 switch off((this "switch"
is now a small component that CAN'T be changed)),and to issue the command
AT&DO&W,but it doesn't say HOW.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.(the HP works fine with a PCMCIA
modem(and different connection settings)

So you have a problem: if all tasks have the same importance, you need

In order to put as much text on the screen as possible and also if your
screen size (columns) is not the same as the authors. Some people
prefer one view and some people the other view. You can toggle it with
a single key combination.

I am sure I could write a "Backgammon program help" formatter. But I
doubt that this would be useful for any other documents. Unless there
is a *general* rule, I don't see a chance for an improved formatter.
That's why I asked for how a "list ident" looks. I am afraid there is
no automatic way to recognise the structure of a list.

Thanks! Saved that algorithm. Do you have experiences what happens if
you apply this to non-list text? Is it save to do that?

I should have read on. <G> So it is not save, i.e. should not be done
automatically as it seems. Maybe optional...

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

I have started using Dosshell in the HP-LX, and I really like the setup.
I can now keep the system manager and one full-blown DOS session in
paralell.

The problems I have are:
1. I do not get the appointment alarms. I've tried to call "alarm /i"
(from hpalrm.zip, in SUPER) in the autoexec, before dosshell starts, but
with no success.
2. I think that I am not getting the Low Battery warning from the BIOS,
and this could be dangerous.

Is there anyone with answers to these questions?
Thanks in advance (or TIA, according to the new HPLX-L rules)

Regards,
Paulo

Hi all

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong (e.g. faulty cfg) but I
would like to have an automatic way to carry forward the tasks until
they are done. The way I have PIM/PE configured undone tasks
only show in the day they begin and not in the days following until
they are completed.

Any way to do this?

TIA

Antonio

Anybody tried VC.COM as mentioned in the latest Thaddeus newsletter from

I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I can't get data entered in the
cells. Just get a beep no matter whether I press left-arrow right-arrow
or ENTER to terminate cell data entry. Oops I run under SC. Yup that's
it - it works like a gem outside of SC.

Anyone know what I need to do to make it work under SC?

Oh I just discovered it runs fine in it's own little SC session of 18K.

I was trying to run it before from the 200MNU DosBox.

I tried the 9 August DBCHECK version. With most files it worked.
However, I consistently got error reports on certain GDB files that
have so far been working well for me, and still do. As I have
incorporated data into these files with the help of GDBIO and file
merging, I thought it might be good to redo the structure of one
file, with Define Database, input some new data, and check it again.
The results were similar.

One example is a database with 438 records, each 3 pages. Several
records only use 2 pages. DBCHECK reports:

3 db header, 0 card def
1 categories, 51 fields defined
1 view point defs, 1 view point tables
360 data records, 353 with notes
Error: actual number of records: 976, expected -256 (..FASTDB..)
Error: more than one database header found
Error: a record was found with a type greater than 31
Error: the file is of an unknown type

Is it possible that DBCHECK does not expect more than one page of data
per record? Some files with 2 data pages per record were reported to
have 2 db headers. I do not realy believe most of the GDB files involved =
are
really damaged so much. I also tried GARLIC on these, and that reports
that the files are too much damaged to be repaired. Any comments?

How about the usual command-line driver loaders?  There were a number of
these around just a few years ago (well, maybe 5 years) so users could avoid
modifying their CONFIG.SYS to get network drivers in place.  One I was
familiar with came with Digital's Pathworks software, called DRVLOAD, I
think.  And if you used something like MARK and RELEASE, you could free up
the memory by dumping the drivers and TSRs after you finished using them.

NO SWITCH?  I think it use to be hidden behind some little cover in the

In Datacom - just enter that - it should reset the modem - sometimes
those types of settings hold after power off - sometimes it must be done
each time the modem is restarted.  And in Datacom to not use an AT as
part of your dialing/init string - hp already provides it and a double
AT messes things up!

And then, make sure whomever you are calling still accepts 2400 baud
calls - lots of services no longer will allow such a slow connection.

Hello Avi

If I understood you, MOD(x,y) gives you the remainder of x/y. Couldn't
find anything for the second but you could use RND(x,y) which is x
rounded to y decimal places. Just set y=0.

Set

Explode=1

in the ÝDisplay¨ section of PIM.CFG. Where this parameter has its name
from, you will soon notice <G> unless you have very few tasks and
always can check them off soon.

There is an URL which links to a database with the running hardware for the LX.
I never could access this database, because I receive a lot of perl error

I think you'r half-right,
The first part is MOD(x,y), but I think the second part is
(x/y)-MOD(x,y)

Not entirely. Say you divide 4 into 8. The remainder in this case is
zero which by setting y to zero in RND(x,y) will give you 2.

I don't have one. That's the problem <G> and that's why I asked you
what a "list ident" is. Examples do not really help. If I make it work
with one example, it won't work with the next. To make it work in the
general case, I need a rule and I believe it is difficult to come up
with a rule that works in the general case. George Coleman posted a set
of rules that seem to come close to what we want.

Filtering through an external program was possible since the very first
days of PE. But if you have an external program that WORKS, there needs
to be a set of rules that work. If I know that set of rules, I can
implement them in PE as well.

Search for "filter".

Exactly the same is done in PE (well, I copied that from the UNIX world
because I liked it).

If you have an algorithm, I would be very much interested in it.

Well Andreas: if I have a task that I put in PIM/PE today and have
to complete it say one week from today with Explode=3D1 I'll see the
task every one day of the intervening week. If I have many tasks,
and sometimes have, the GUI becomes cluttered. What I would
find handy is to have the same task entered and as each day
passes the task is transfered to the next day until it is checked off.

Gateway to revive Amiga for information appliances
 By Gary McWilliams THE WALL STREET JOURNAL

Aug. 12 - Two years ago, PC maker Gateway Inc. acquired the rights to the
personal-computer industry's most famous cult product, the Amiga PC. The
Amiga made its debut in 1985, and still has fans, partly as a result of a
James Dean-like history: a rapid rise, then a tragic end.

GATEWAY PAID ABOUT $13 MILLION for 47 Amiga patents, including those for
important multimedia techniques. The San Diego PC maker's original plan was
to use the patents as a bargaining chip in royalty negotiations with other
PC makers. "It was a treasure chest," says Joe Torre, a former Amiga Inc.
hardware engineer.

Now, Gateway is aiming to revive the Amiga in a bold move to set standards
for the next era in computing. It quietly has set up and staffed a new Amiga
Inc. subsidiary to cobble together low-cost "information appliances" for the
Internet, based on Amiga technology, that can be linked like home-stereo
components to add features.

I had a hard time finding one several months ago.  Everybody seems to have
moved to 56K.  The regular version has a cellular cable conector on it,
but the Lite version doesn't.

This would explain why I was never successful with a custom

Hi,

I wrote a 1-2-3 macro that uses the {WRITE ...} macro command to write
selected spreadsheet fields to a file as ASCII text. When I tried to
extend the macro to write also some control characters (less then 20
hex) to the file I found (with DOS' DEBUG command) that 1-2-3 converts
these characters to 20 hex.  The manual says "{WRITE text} copies text
to the open text file...", which might indicate it does not intend to
write control characters less than 20 hex.

My question is: Does someone know a way to get 1-2-3 write these
characters to a file?

Thanks
Norbert

The annoying thing is, about a year ago they sued some poor sucker

called "Frenchy Frys" or something like that.)

There is an http://frys.com web page, but it's almost entirely
content-free.

I've been playing around with the database format.  I believe that
"Record not found" means either (a) a Note record was missing (notes
are stored in seperate records from the records that refer to them), or
(b) the master index at the end of the database has become corrupted.

The irritating thing is, both of these error are easily recoverable
(in theory), but the HP database engine doesn't do it.  Very
annoying.

Hi Norbert,

I tried to figure it out and had a look in my 1-2-3 book, but it
really does not seem to work. I suggest to place special "control-
strings" like "{new_page}" into the file with the macro and then
run a perl script which then replaces the placeholders with the
real codes.

cheers,
Reinhard

 If one is interested in the subject of cellular phones and the 200, it
would be wise to specify which part of the world you are interested in.
The situation between Europe, Japan and the US differ so markedly that
virtually nothing useful said about one applies to the other...

I assume from the return address that this question is about the
situation in Europe. I'm afraid I know nothing useful with respect to
that.

How about using the 200lx case and swapping out the motherboard and
getting a better display, this would solve all of the case problems,
and would by much cheaper than designing a unit from the ground up.
What do you think?

I went to the Newdeal website, and downloaded the demo software, it is
similiar to windows, maybe this would be a great Os to put on this new
palmtop, its Microsoft free and probably would Run AOL, like the 200lx.
 This would also attract a lot of potential buyers since no palmtop,
besides to 200lx offers AOL access.

Yes, it is in Switzerland. We have GSM here. The same standard as in
Germany. It is not so the GSM stuff what I am asking for (I know that our
GSM works with the LX, I tried it with an OmniGo 700LX). What I am
interested about is the simple possibility to use the IR instead of a cab=
le.
If I use a cable, I normally need a GSM PC-Card. How about the IR port?

None of these phones are compatible with the 100 or 200 LX. The IR capability
on the phones is IRDA, which is not supported by the palmtop, though presumably
clever programming of the IR port may be able to make it work. However, there
is a secone problem; there is no software available for the palmtop which will
talk to the phones, emulate a modem, etc. Software _IS_ available for CE
devices, as well as Windows 9x and NT, but as far as DOS, I doubt NOKIA has any
plans to write drivers.

There is an open source project to develop drivers for *nix. Visit the Gnokii
project at http://multivac.fatburen.org/gnokii/

I've been toying with porting these drivers to the 200LX, which should be
relatively doable, bu I doubt I'd do the IR stuff, as my phone doesn't have an
IR port (I'm using the cable) Of course, I6ve go some other projects in the
works too, so who knows...

Fine idea. Except `better' displays cost power. That's why most PDAs
have battery life measured in hours rather than months. And what many
people don't like about the 200 are the limitations of the 80186, but
changing that would cost power too, etc. etc. etc.

People have been down just about every path on the `re-design' route.
There have been hundreds, if not thousands of messages posted here
and in HPHAND on Compuserve on this topic. In general, you can get just
what you want so long as you're willing to carry a Car battery in your
backpack. Other than that, you can't change much about the 200lx without
compromising seriously on some front that most other users regard as
`uncompromisable'.

find this as cheap as possible. I surfed around a bit but I did not

I would like to buy it in Europe of Scandinavia. Is this card still in
production? I also need a networkcard for my desktop pc..I need a pci
slot card. Any suggestions where I can find both cards?

I use the 200LX running WWW/LX with a Nokia 8810 via IR. Mainly for
POST/LX e-mail, and also have a ROBOT/LX SMS script which
sends/receives SMS messages from/to a regular POST/LX outbox/inbox.

Where have ye been, Ryan?  WWW/lx works with the Nokia 8810 and Ericcson
SH888 over IRDA using the phones as a modem for internet access.

Check the archives of this list servers for some of the past discussions
about it.

Checking the worldport manual,it says to switch #3 switch off((this "switch"

It turned out to be a battery problem.Although the LED's gave no indication
of an insufficient amount of power,simply exchanging it for a fresh 9v did
the trick.Guess it simply reinforces my belief in checking the simple stuff

To be honest, I never used Think Tank when it was initially released and was
a regular user of Grandview and later More on the Mac. More was probably the
best outliner ever written. I find Think Tank to be better as an outliner
than Grandview but Grandview can be used as your only word processor and PIM
quickly nicely.

Anyway, kudos to Symmantec for making it freely available. Now if we can
talk them into making Grandview available .....

If anybody wants to try Grandview I have the "Trial Size" version I
could send in to the SUPER site.   It is a crippled demo - no spell
check print or save files if I remember correctly, but it will give
you the feel of the program and let you decide if you like it enough
to try and scrounge a copy of the full program.

The connector is flat, the thickess of the card and about 1/2 inch wide.  I prefer
this as it allows easy use in notebooks too if there are stacked PCMCIA slots.

  Good try Ashwin, but not possible...

  The board you mentioned (PCM3335) is 3.55 inches by 3.775 inches.  (The
web picture makes it look smaller...)  The HPLX motherboard is aprox. 2.5
inches by 3.2 inches.  (The latter are measurements-by-eye, but they're
close...)  The HPLX case is only about 3.25 inches from front to back.  The
PCM3335 doesn't even come close to fitting in the case.

  The PCM3335 requires 1 AMP(!!) of current at 5 volts.  I don't know exact
figures for the HPLX, but considering battery life, it's probably between a
1/10th to 1/20th of that.

  I also don't see any provision in the specs for a PCMCIA interface.  I
don't know about you, but I sure wouldn't want to have to carry around 3-4
of the various PC/104-size (expansion boards the size of the PCM3335 or
larger) boards to give me the same functionality as my small stack of PCMCIA
cards.

  Sorry to burst your bubble.  You had me hopeing for a while there...  :¬)

  Good luck,
          ... JLS

Avi,

If you don't mind doing it in Lotus instead of Solver, the function

      @int(celladdress)

Will return the integer portion of whatever in the cell at "celladdress".
Obviously if you subtract that from the result of the division, you get the
stuff to the right of the decimal.

Come to think of it, my manual is right here.  The solver function you want
is int(x), which returns the greatest integer less than or equal to x.

Actually, GV emerged from a combination of ThinkTank, which Symantec acquired
from Living Videotext (Dave Winer's old company) and PC-Outline, a shareware
program by Brown Bag Software, written by John Friend.  Friend developed the
GV program by combining thed best features of each, and vastly improved the
print presentation quality.

GV was not really a replacement for TT, but an alternative.  One of the major
differences was that GV's outlines were limited in size to available memory,
and you could allocate that memory among 9 outlines at once.  If your
outlines were larger than available memory, you could export them to TT.  TT
read from/wrote to disk and its outlines could be theoretically as large as
32Mb, the common hard disk size at the time (I don't know whether they might
be even larger given today's massive drives.)  TT still is a great outliner,
but GV allowed headlnes longer than 80 characters and had more sophisticated
categorization and macros features.  I don't want to seem ungrateful to
Symantec for this very admirable gesture, but I wish we could get GV back
into circulation too

I think almost any alternative-HP200LX idea will result in poor battery

   Not really Lynn. I play Uilleann Pipes, and the melody is always set
off against the drones. The Just intonation is based on relative
proportions of various harmonics to the root tone. (Seems complicated but
is readily apparent to the ear when it's right) The Equal Temperament is
a mathematical figment of the imagination involving equal half steps
founded on the log twelve of the scale interval in hertz. (Whew!) But
each interval is almost always several hz off of a true ratio to the
drones (or the root tone, for that matter) and so there is a clash to the
ear. (here I excise a long dissertation on the failings of the Equal
Temperament Scheme!).

Jeff,

  $20 is fine with me and I'll pay shipping - priority mail should be
fine.  BTW, I have never done packet before but have looked into it.
Sounds like a good mate with the 200LX and my normal HF QRP operations.

That's why the parameter is named "explode"

Have a look at the list view. I find the list view much more
appropriate for tasks than the GUI thing (which I find much more
appropriate for appointments).

I told you about the possibility to produce hardcopys of done
tasks AND appointments before court.

Then there are meetings which I'm invited to (maybe for curtesy
reasons) and which get entered into PIM. However I sometimes decide
whether or not to attend at the very last minute.

Then there is the fact that I have a brain like an Emmentaler
cheese with lots of holes in it (G). After 2 - 3 months I'm
unable to recall when and what happened. I want to check that
with the "done" view which therefore should include
appointments which I did attend to.

In Agenda this worked. For APPT I had nobody to complain  about
the possibility to show it in the "done" view (was "print done
tasks" in APPT). In PE/PIM I have hopes that the author of the
programm surrenders to my pleas (g).

Maybe it's a different working and planning habit. I trust in
God and in Him giving met some more years to do what I intend to
do. Every task is assigned to a day in the future and I make sure that I
don't have more than ~15 items per day. They usually get either
done (=checked off) or worked on, checked off and then copied to a new
day as a reminder (nice feature of PIM !). So all have the same
priority to me. My bosses rely on me to get things done ;-)
They will not accept an excuse saying "I did not do it because
it was priority 4".

Does this answer your questions ?

There _are_ IrdA devices which work well with the LX (e.g. my IBM ThinkPad

You need a phone that supports IrDA and has a built-in modem. So far I
know that the following phones support that:
=20
 Nokia 8810, 9000
 Ericsson SH888
 Siemens S25

So far I know that the following phones (with IR) don't support that:

 Nokia 6110

Next you need software that supports IrDA. As far as I know, there
currently only is WWW/LX that supports IrDA for communication.

Following my earlier email on getting HV to run over a LAN, I ended up

Then I reinserted the proxy statement and ......... It also worked!!

Everything looks the same, same revisions, everything, but now it works. It

There are a couple more mobiles about to be launched in the UK (and, I
assume, elsewhere) that have modems built-in. Motorola have just released
the L7089, which is a tri-band GSM 800/1800/1900 phone that should allow
roaming worldwide, including the US - or at least, those parts that carry
GSM1900. It's available on the Orange network in the UK, although the
handsets are in short supply. I'm going to replace my Nokia nk702 (nice
phone, data-enabled, but requires a software modem so it's no use with the
HP200LX) as soon as I can get my hands on one.

Ericsson have also released the I888, which is an international version of
the SH888. IIRC the I888 is GSM 800/1900, which again will roam in the USA.
In the UK it's available on Cellnet and One-2-One, I think. Sorry, but I
don't know what networks it's available for in Europe.

Nokia will shortly be releasing the 7110, probably in September. This again
has a built-in modem, and will run faster than the other phones I've
mentioned. Normally GSM has a 9600 baud limit for data, but I think the 7110
will run at 14400. This phone also is WAP-compatible, and has the nicest
screen of any that I've seen, and a funky little roller instead of the UP
and DOWN arrow keys.

Any one of these phones should work fine with the HP200LX. If the Nokia 7110
was available now I'd snap that up, but I can't afford to wait until they
are actually released, so I'll probably end up with the Moto L7089, although
I have heard some rumours about the early models having teething trouble.
Once I get one, I'll let you all know how it works with the HP200LX. The
advantage to me if having a modem-enabled phone is that I don't have to take
the flash card out of my unexpanded 2MB machine to make a call :)

cheers

Jeremy

ÝPlease note that the phones below is gsm 900 phones and the S25 is gsm
900/1800..I have no knowledge what phones are availible in non
gsmcountries¨

I have used a Nokia 8810 with www/lx. It worked very well. I used it
for mail and also sms. I did not use it for a long time..just for
testing, but it was a very nice setup with sms in/out from the same
"screen" as email/news. Only problem was that the phone would not turn
off irconnection after a "run".. I think this is a problem with the
software on the Nokia 8810.

I have not used the Ericsson SH888, but it should work as the 8810.
But I have tested the new Siemens S25 with www/lx. It did not work "out
of the box". Andreas had to do some changes to the www.exe file to
make it work. Thanks for that Andreas. I will probably buy one
even though the sms robot/lx does not work.. I had a "superdeal" on a
S25, but it did not go through..so it will be fullprice then..:-(

The new Nokia 7110 should contain the same irmodem as the Nokia 8810,
but that has not yet been confirmed. I am a bit confused, because Nokia
Careline told me that the new 7110 needed Nokia Cellular Datasuite to
work as a modem..the rumors going back and forth about this phone are
driving me nuts..as Andreas say:" We'll ust have to see". Nobody knows
when it will be released...maybe Nostredamus has something in his books
about it? 8-))

OK, I will introduce an option

Emmentaler=Yes

or similar <G> that will include the "done" appointments in the "done"
view. By default, I will leave it as tasks only, as I think this is
what most people want to have.

I see that you don't need priorities (or think so <G>) but I hope you
understand that there are people who want to be able to assign
priorities and that therefore I leave support for priorities in there.
BTW, I don't use priorities either...

This limitations is not one of the phone, but of the network. The Nokia
8810, for example, supports up to 38400 baud, but the current networks
only support 9600 baud.

I very much like my 8810/200LX combination for this - and no bulky cables
needed.

I turn the phone off/on after I am done with IR transfers. Inconvenient
indeed. I also believe it is a phone software problem.

The S25 seems to be much slower than the other phones. I had to make
WWW/LX wait longer for answers from the phone to make it work.

The S25 does not seem to support "text mode" for SMS, only PDU mode,
which would mean that all messages needed to be hex encoded binary
strings in the phone's native format. I wonder why they "saved" on that
part of the phone software.

I'm always on the look out for free DOS programs, and I ran across a

I think someone asked about Double Accounting not long ago, and I
believe this package will do that.

Thanks. I am aware of the Lotus way, but really need it as

Several people suggested using IP and FP (integer and

work in Solver. I'll do the stuff tomorrow...

Excellent. I used PC Outline too and liked it, but it, like
Think Tank, had some shortcomings. I always thought that a

 I've seen these closeout "IBM cellular modem for CPD-sumthin'" modems for
sale on Ebay but few bidders. Does anyone know if this thing is usuable? How
do you find a service provider? Is it likely to work in the LX? They say it
supports 19.2
speed and probably works on the same packet switched wireless network as
the PALM 7.

Hello Martin or Andreas,

i'm an owner of WWW/LX and a Siemens S25 - until now it was not
possible for me to bring it to work with www/lx. But as you said it is
working for you - so maybe you could send me your ww.cfg section or
describe me what has to be done.

Hopefully

The BayPac modem is a radio modem for amateur AX.25 packet communications.
You must hold a FCC Technician Class license or higher in order to use =
the
privilege. The BP-2M is a multimode modem and can do a bit more than the
BP-1. I use my for terrestrial packet radio as well as space communication=
s
(see http://www.tigertronics.com/sheriff.htm). I can and do access the
internet via packet, although at 1200bps it's slow and clumsy due to all =
the
ACKS being passed back and forth. One of the things that I enjoy doing =
with
packets, besides Mir, is participating in chats via packet. It's fun to =
chat
with folks all around the world in real time via the LX, a BayPac and an =

a motherboard replacement for the 200lx.  Tell me what you think.

Sorry for the mistake. I've been in Canada, where we have only one major GSM
provider, and so far as I know, the only Nokia phones they sell are the 5190
and the 6190, both of which require special software (They don't have modem
emulation built in). I guess I should have visited the Nokia web site before
opening my mouth, though.

If I read the specs correctly these devices tend to consume on the
order of 10 x as much power as is used by the 200.

If this is correct, it either implies that you'd get about 10 mins use
out of a pair of batteries, or you have to carry around the equivalent
of 15 or 20 cells, and even then only get a few hours.

I'd suggest you look at the power requirements before suggesting any
`replacements' for the 200. It seems clear that HP, with all of their
engineering knowledge, never found a good replacement for the 80186 in
the 200, or they likely would have built an updated machine.

We have had thisa discussion before and there are quite a lot of us

me = KX0ZPA (was KC0BUY)

There is also a good chunk of people that use the LX in conjunction with a
BP-1 and a handheld for remote packet -- there is a web page out there
somewhere --- try a search for "palm packet"

is there something for the mail as well?   Possibly using the built in ccmail?

I seek your advice and wisdom.  I have a 8M DS 200LX and it is locked up hard.
It will not turn off and control/alt/del gets no response.   I was in the middle
of entering transactions into Pocket Quicken when it locked.    This same
situation occurred 3-4 times over the past year and the remedy I have used is to
reset (control/alt/del) or reintialize (cont/on).     I do not have my manuals
or the Info CD with me to research the courses of action.

How can I revive my 200LX without reinitializing?

I would suggest to record and use a macro, say under Fn-F10. First
decide which field to import the e-mail addresses into. You can create
a field for this by modifying the record definition: open the general
database application, open the phone book file in it, and use
File-Modify database. When done, with the first record listed on top of
the main list screen, start macro recording: Shft-Fn-F10. Perform the
following key strokes: Enter Alt-A (or tab to the alternate phone
field) Fn-CUT tab to the field to import into Fn-PASTE F10 DwnArrow
Shft-Fn-F10. You should now be back on the main list screen, next
record highlighted. If you use F8 to compose the list screen such that
you see the import and export columns on it, you will have control over
what you do. Now repeat Fn-F10 699 times for the remaining records.
May prove a rapid procedure, after all.

Geert van Wirdum.

<<It seems clear that HP, with all of their
engineering knowledge, never found a good replacement for the 80186 in
the 200, or they likely would have built an updated machine.>>

Unfortunately, we may giving HP more credit here then they deserve.  I think
a long time ago, it was decided in Singapore not to continue the 200LX
series.  I seem to recall hearing that the Corvallis engineers were looking
at an AMD 486 board possibility that would be developed.  Then the 200LX was
transfered to Singapore.

Hence the OmniGo 100 and the Windows CE Jornadas.

However, your point about power requirements is well-taken.  One of the
great things of the 200LX over CE devices is battery life.

I don't know if any of you remember, but when I purchased my Omnibook
800 there was a flyer in the box which had a prodect called the AER
powerslice, what this device did was cradle the omnibook and provide a
mousepad for the mouse, while also providing 12 hours of battery time.
Does anyone know where I can purchase one of these? Has anyone
purchased one of these? I would love to hear some feedback on this
product. Thanks

I'll go check out that "Newdeal" website soon (if it's actually located
at www.newdeal.com) to see what you are referring to. It sounds
intriguing.

However, just for your information, AOL has recently cut off access to
all DOS based access software, so the 200LX will no longer work to access
AOL.

If the "Newdeal" OS could actually offer access to AOL with a 200LX
again, I would be very interested in more information about it.

Cheers!

Hi David,

Yep, I'm a ham too, although I've been inactive for a few years. Within
the last few weeks, I've pulled out and charged up my 2M HT again, just
to listen in and hopefully get back into it in Michigan where I returned
to settle again, after leaving the military.

I hope to also eventually get into packet with my BayPac BP-1 TNC that
has gathered dust ever since I purchased it a few years ago, along with
my 32 MB X2 200LX and Alinco DJ-580T/E HT.

When I purchased that TNC back when I was living in Hawaii, I had no idea
that the HP200LX even existed, and had hoped that I'd someday find a
computer like the HP200LX so I could eventually put together a tiny,
ultra-portable packet station. :-)

Have a look at www.palmtop.net/more.html .
There you'll find an article about building a 10pin plug. Maybe this
helps....

Watch your mailbox. I think I have found a "compromise"-solution which
does not disturb the "normal" case, but works better for lists (though
certainly not perfect).

If you come up with something that works well and if you are willing to
share the algorithm, I would be very much interested.

I was assuming a low right margin (so that the example got small) and I
did it manually and my algorithm may have been buggy. <G>

I have a sed program that works well for me, but I don't remember where
I have it from. Most probably from Simtel. I don't like awk that much
and don't have a copy on the palmtop. But somebody else might jump
in...

The sed you're thinking of is probably the same as the one in the SUPER
section of palmtop.net (which is also on Simtel). It's a very nice
implementation, with a few added goodies (such as '\t' for TAB and the '+'
operator in regular expressions) that apparently aren't standard sed.

I've more or less abandoned Awk since I learned Perl, I don't even keep it
on my LX anymore. There is a version on SUPER, though.

So you can mention this as a working combination in Switzerland?
Did you have to buy any add-in for the phone (cable, software,
'modem-emulation' etc.)?
Will it work with e.g. cclxPOP too?

It looks like it will be too much of a pain to design a new

unit is just a tiny bit bigger than the 200lx and that it can run a
variety of programs.

Subject:      PGP with Post/LX

Hello

I am trying to get PGP working with post/lx. I started by downloading
the instructions off the D&A Software website. Next I changed my config.txt
and created the four batch files, the altered the Paledit cfg file and the
Externals in Post/LX blah,blah. At first when I tried to encrypt a message I kept
getting an error "Scratch not found". I found out PGP was creating a
scratch.asc file instead of scratch with no extension so what I did
was copy scratch.asc to scratch. Then it would encrypt with no errors.
The next problem is the messages seem to be ecrypting twice. Once they are
decrypted instead of readable text, the next layer is still encrypted.
I am also having a problem decrypting messages. When I run the external batch
file to decrypt it gives me an error "ascii error in armour" then just
displays the encrypted message still encrypted, doesn't ask for the passphrase
at all. Mem shows I have 562K free memory. Does anyone have any suggestions?
TIA

John

Hi Ashwin & list

I dont understand why people are searching for/considering different
machines
when its the 200LX that does it for you now. If you think your 200lx
will die
and leave you stranded buy a spare now. Buy two!!

The PC110 is a great gizmo but with its squarer shape that's 24.6%
bigger than
the 200lx it's NOT going to be in your pocket as often as the 200lx.
When you
factor in the PC110's 2 hour battery life & lack of that HP200 custom
software
its not really a valid choice. The PC110 is very powerful for its size
but we
are talking handbags instead of pockets.

Try www.1800batteries.com (now operating under a new name). I
believe I saw this in their latest catalog. If my memory is
correct, someone on the Compuserve Omnibook forum purchased one
and then returned it because of very strict rules regarding
recharging.

One of the regular contributors to the Omnibook forum on
Compuserve (HPPC) tried this. 8.4GB is easy, 10GB required
special tricks. I don't have that message on this computer. If

Tony, you might want to check out http://games.hplx.net, if
you haven't already. I seem to remember a couple of golf
games being on the list. One I definitely remember is an old
Jack Nicklaus demo available on the HPHAND CompuServe forum;
presumably, it's still available.

This is a stab in the dark, but it might be that it uses a
rarely-utilised special resolution that exists (I think that
it's 640x400); if that's the case, then there's nothing that
can be done. By the way, what is Starflight?

Maybe if we ask nicely enough. The authors of Acta for the Mac have made it
available and Dave Winer has made the initial version of Frontier available
as well.

Others to be thanked obviously include Lotus for making Agenda and other
programs available.

Anyway, more useful tools for the HP200lx users.

I once tried that with OS/2 version 2; IBM's tech support told me it was
impossible to run it solely as a DOS multitasker; had to have the OS/2
graphical stuff at least at bootup.  Now THAT would have been about the best
DOS multitasker around.  Except maybe running multiple DOSEMU sessions under
FreeBSD or Linux ...

Subject:      A permanent Win95 drive mapped to the palmtop
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Thanks to the people who are currently alpha testing the new procedure
for mapping a network drive from the HP200LX to a Win95 machine.  I've
now polished this to the point where it no longer requires any changes
to the config.sys file, so it can be loaded and unloaded at will.  I
think I should be able to release the procedure for beta testing this
week.

I'm now looking for volunteers to alpha test the combination of the new
LXCIC (which can handle ethernet cards as well as modems), the new
LXEN2216 packet driver (which can re-initialise the card correctly after
a power cycle, to allow TCP/IP packets to continue without having to
restart any programs), PDIPX (a program that allows IPX over a packet
driver), and an installation of the Microsoft Network Client 3.0 which
allows the HP200LX to map a network drive from a Win95 machine.

With this combination, you can map the Win95 drive onto the palmtop
before running SysMgr or Software Carousel, and then access the Win95
drive in FILER or X-Finder or another Carousel session.  You can turn
the palmtop off, remove it from the network, remove the network card,
replace it by a memory card, come back tomorrow, return the network
card, turn the palmtop back on, and continue working on the already
mapped Win95 drive WITHOUT having to restart anything.  Also note that
none of this requires any changes to the config.sys file, so it can be
loaded and unloaded at will.
Note that with this IPX procedure, you can't map HP200LX drives onto the
Win95 machine (like you can with the NETBEUI procedure referred to in
the first paragraph at the top of this message).  The trade-off between
the two different procedures is being able to power-cycle the palmtop
versus being able to map the palmtop drive onto the Win95 machine.  Both
procedures can map Win95 drives onto the palmtop.

To participate, you must have an Accton ethernet card (or be one of the
LXEN2216 testers who've found their non-Accton card to work correctly
with LXCIC and LXEN2216), and a Windows 95 machine with the IPX/SPX
protocol mapped to the local ethernet card.

I use that since the end of last year. Currently I am sitting in the

The phone contains a modem and the IrDA hardware and software. All
standard. Nothing special needed.

I don't know, but I rather doubt. As far as I know, currently only
WWW/LX supports the IrDA protocol for communication purposes.

Tell PGP to create "scratch." and not just "scratch" (note the leading

I know that Swiss German is like German and you never know where to find
the adjective but really, I did not realize a LEADING period FOLLOWED
the subject in such phrasing! (gd&r)

TRAILING PERIOD, I suspect!

Hi Ashwin & list

I dont understand why people are searching for/considering different
machines
when its the 200LX that does it for you now. If you think your 200lx
will die
and leave you stranded buy a spare now. Buy two!!
___________reply seperator______________

I agree. The 200LX serves its function as a computer very well.
I could not understand why someone wants to replace it. Update, upgrade
maybe, but thwere is nothing out there that replaces it. Besides the 110
was discontinued long ago. It pretty much puts a person in the same spot
if it dies.

Maybe I'm missing something.
DOS isn't dead. Applications that work will continue to work.
Windows 95 (and any other Op System) will be "obsolete" in time.
The sharing of data between the desktop and the 200LX is not the perfect
answer. I use the calendar function on the LX to run my business. I "never"
need to have this data on my desktop system. I have my 200LX right there
beside me. The memos and notes I write on the LX are just text files and can
be utilized in any environment. I just don't see the problem with continued
use of the LXs.

_________________reply seperator______________

I'm still confused. Forgotten by whom? Hasen't a new synche utility for
Windows software just come out? Hasen't a new version of WWW/LX just come out
that allows an IRDA interface with phones. Wasen't a new 96 MB memory
upgrade just annouenced also? The platform seems as vigourous as ever.
Plus there's all this free, great software there for the taking. Me, I'm
still waiting for people to start unloading 32 and 64 meg upgraded
200LXs <g>....I suspect it'll never happen. As far CE doing anything
to the 200LX platform, CE is going to fail. It has lousey battery life,
its slow and kludgey, (even on the 680, I checked it out) and there
is no good software for it and nobody is writing any. There not even
a Wordperfect for it. The 200LX is as strong as ever.

CE has already left buyers of several earlier versions completely
cut off from new versions and with the pace of further development
WinCe will do this again to those silly enough to buy into it.

I'm sorry but havn't you noticed all these new DOS programs for your
200lx? its still a growth Operating System (thanks to the excellent
work of "our" dos software writers)

Aah! This is the real problem ! Get rid of the Desk!

It is difficult if your work binds you to the desk - I have all my
work stuff on the 200lx (I'm lucky our office is not into outlook
appointment setting) that way I can take & be reminded of an appointment
anywhere at anytime + my data is copied from 200lx to Desk and not the
other way. The 200lx (+ mobile Ph) will free you from the desk rather
than a Wince Device that just attaches you to the desk by a cable.

Last I looked W95 has already been replaced with Win98 and a new version
to be released soon. Its all a marketing exercise to get you to abandon
your 2 year old PC+software and buy another - dont be sucked in!

I bought into PC's with a big box with double floppy - no HDD that cost
$US3000 and then a 286 (same price) 386 (same price!) 486 >P100 >P200
etc
The most stable platform I have ever owned has been the 100/200lx and
the most productive.

I see the problem as not needing a different device but keeping the
existing one going as my 200/2m has the cracked case + the screen
is now short of 4 vertical lines. I will have to get a new 200/ds/32m

Enjoy your 200 today (& get a spare!)

Cheers

Researcher builds inexpensive, aspirin-size Internet computer

August 14, 1999
Web posted at: 1:12 PM EDT (1712 GMT)

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The latest from the cyberworld: an aspirin-size
computer that, embedded in household appliances, could let people on
the road or at the office use the Internet to cool their homes, heat
coffee and tape TV shows.

Believed to be the smallest such computer ever built, the inexpensive
device could help usher in a new generation of connected home
appliances, from VCRs to coffee makers to small cameras, controlled
over the Internet from almost anywhere.

"The implications of this are more than a silly little competition
among a bunch of researchers," said H. Shrikumar, who studies
specialized machine automation at the University of Massachusetts in
Amherst. "This has tremendous application in the way it might change
our lives."
The project also testifies to how much utility a concise programmer
can pack into a limited amount of computer memory, even in these days
of multimegabyte software applications with millions of lines of code.

The tiny computer, slightly larger than the head of a match, is
connected to the Internet from Shrikumar's apartment near the
university. It includes a tiny 4-megahertz processor he bought for 49
cents and a small 32-kilobyte memory chip that stores World Wide Web
pages and other data.

Although those numbers are paltry compared to the speed and storage
of modern personal computers, which run thousands of times faster and
contain hundreds of times more storage, the tiny computer still is
more powerful than typical computers less than a decade ago.
Shrikumar, 33, said his computer can be built for less than $1,
making it practical to install the devices in a variety of home
electronics and appliances.

Some existing appliances, such as modern thermostats or newer coffee
makers, can be programmed individually. But appliances connected
using the language of the Internet, called "TCP/IP," could
communicate with each other even if made by different manufacturers.
Just before the hour the homeowner sets for his alarm clock, for
example, the thermostat could automatically turn up the heat, the
television could turn on the morning news and the coffee could begin
brewing.

"In one click, the whole house now wakes up with you," he said. "This
can make our way of life much easier."

Similarly, with the appliances connected to a home network that also
maintained a continuous connection with the Internet, consumers could
use the Web browser on an office computer to program their VCRs, turn
on their porch lights, even activate cameras to check on the baby
sitter.
The new wave of high-speed Internet connections using cable TV modems
or new digital phone lines already offer such continuous hookups.

"I'm not sure I want a computer in my refrigerator that's
controllable, but the heating system, that's a legitimate one you'll
want to control," said Richard Smith, president of Phar Lap Software
Inc. in Cambridge, Mass., who built the first small Internet computer
more than two years ago.

"This could solve the problem of programming the VCR. You could have
more sophisticated control mechanisms, have different time schedules
on the weekdays," Smith said.

Shrikumar's Internet computer is smaller than one built earlier this
year at Stanford University, which includes a much more powerful
processor and lots more memory. But the Stanford computer costs more
than $800.

Vaughan Pratt, the Stanford professor in charge of that project, said
the implications of Shrikumar's work are enormous. "Everything that
shrinks down to a size that can be embedded in small spaces will have
a big impact," Pratt said.

Since Shrikumar began testing his computer this summer, and after he
announced it on a private Internet discussion group, about 5,000
people daily from around 70 countries have visited the tiny
computer's Web site.

"This was just a fun hobby project," said Shrikumar, who expects to
graduate next year. "It caught my attention and demanded that it be
done."

He is not sure what he will do once he leaves school.

"There are lots of things one can do," he said. "It's a big world."

Don't know about a FAQ, John... but I can say that the following cameras do
work with the 200LX:

Kodak DC20 - Works fine via LXDC and serial cable
Kodak DC25 - Image transfer only via shareware DOS programs or CompactFlash
transfer
Toshiba PDC-2 - Works flawlessly
Sony Mavica Line - Works great if you have a Drive 100 (which I do)
Any camera that stores images in .jpg and uses CompactFlash (eg; Nikon
Coolpix 900)

Maybe I am asking a silly question; anyway I'm trying to redirect com1 to the
IR to use it with interlnk.
Someone told me that com3 should work, so in my config.sys I have

device=c:\dos\interlnk.exe /com3

but I get an error message (something like com3 does not exist in bios); I
tried also com2 and com4
without success. Any suggestion is wellcome.
(By the way I am trying to do the same with the libretto but it seems to be
impossible from the win95
configuration, also here any suggestion is wellcome).
Thanks and regards

Sergio

Well I don't know about *moving* it, but several of us use the POP3 support that Outlook can have (if your messaging support folk have not left it out).  I use GP to access my Outlook mail as POP3, it works very well - much faster than the regular Windows client.   My single speed, 2Mb LX still has space for what I need.

Of course I can't read all the attachment types, but I can keep on top of my mailbox while away so I don't have 100's to sift when I get back to the office.

Newer versions of the Exchange server support IMAP, so you could use PINE or another IMAP program; you then get access to all the folders, not just the inbox.

I dare say there are features of Outlook that will not work - if your organisation was seriously into voting buttons and forms, for example.

Hello

I am trying to get PGP to work with Paledit 2.2 and am having
memory problems. When I run maxdos it isn't getting all the memory
free, mem reports only 200K free. This only happens with Paledit
2.2 with Paledit 2.0 I get 560k free. Is there something in the
PE.CFG file I can change to get more memory? Thanks

I tried everything under the sun to get it to work, but ended up reverting
back to the older version of PE. If you get it to work, please report =

success and what you did to make it work.

I also like that I do not have to edit and mess with the "Windows

problems with my desktops with windows and "regedit".. ;-)

I have heard that some 8810 has "developed" this problem after a
software upgrade.. so maybe it is one particular software version that
is responsible for this behaviour..

You wrote in a email to me that you thought that Siemens did not
implement everything because the marketing just needed the "basics" to
flash in the advertises..I also think this is the case..

I do not know what I am going to do in regards to ir/phone. I would
like to buy the S25 because the Nokia 7110 is delayed. But the 7110
has more "goodies" and I am a Nokia fan.. but I do not know for sure
if the 7110 works.

Andreas I will provide you with a url very soon where Nokia says that
the 7110 contains irda modem.. A man in alt.cellular.nokia quoted from
www.nokia.com somewhere that it did indeed contain 14.4 irda modem..

Nobody wants to drag around such a big machine ;-))

You have to get a new www.exe from Andreas... I could also send it too
you, but I won't..if you mail Andreas with the licence code/name he
probably will mail you the new www.exe..

Sorry Andreas if I have spoken on behalf of you.. I guess the new
www.exe will be part of a new update soon anyway?

Here are a few URLs which may be of interest:

http://www.nokia.com/phones/7110/phone/data.html

This is Nokia's own page, which states clearly that the 7110 has its own
built-in 14.4 modem. It even has its own built-in web browser, so you can
surf the web without even your trusty HP200 :)


http://www.cellular.co.za/nokia_7110.htm

An independant description of the 7110. This South African site is pretty
good for information about most mobile phones IMHO. Here is its page on the
L7089 tri-band phone from Motorola:

http://www.cellular.co.za/motorola_l7089.htm


and here is the one for the S25:

http://www.cellular.co.za/siemens_s25.htm

My local Orange shop here in the UK has just got its stock of L7089s in (in
fact they've sold 5 in the last two days), so I may well go and get one in
the next day or so. If my experience is anything to go by, I'd recommend
that anyone interested in getting a data-enabled mobile does their own
homework BEFORE going into a shop - the salesman in my Orange shop told me
point blank that my existing Nokia nk702 couldn't access the web via IR from
a PC, and looked most distressed when I told him I'd been doing just that
for the past six months :)

Jeff,

Unless something has changed receintly, I have purchased about a
dozen items from ebay, and all were done from my LX using WWW/LX.
My last transaction was about three or four months, so maybe
something has changed, if I get sometime I will have a look at
what might be out there that I may want to bid on.

Well, maybe something has changed because I thought I remembered buying
something from eBay also using HV, but I sure as heck couldn't get it to =
let
me bid last night via the LX <g>. I did, however, make a successful bid

If you use maxdos the same way, you should get the same amount of
memory, regardless if you use PE 2.0 or PE 2.2 or any other editor.

This message is signed using PGP from within PE 2.2 from within
POST/LX. So it works. And I did not have to change anything when going
to the newer version of PE.

I did the software upgrade to 4.05. It was needed to make IrDA work
correctly *at all*. It seems they have broken something with turning
the IR port off again. So far I don't think they provided any newer
upgrade though.

I think I have seen both: URLs that make absolutely clear the 7110
supports it and URLs that make absolutely clear, it does not...

I believe it as soon as I see it. <G>

I was just given an HP95 with the explaination that it had been sitting
unused for years in a closet.

I went to power it on and no go.  I have checked the obvious (I put in
new, known-to-be-good batteries Ýmain and backup¨.  The contacts look
clean.  But, no go.

Any thoughts?  Is there some magic keystroke sequence that resets even
more than the reset done by having no batteries in it for some time?

Any one with experience and/or advice?  All help gratefully received.

Thanks

Does anyone have any experience with this Sage modem? It looks like it'll
provide full-time internet access for $160. (plus $40/month for Nynex) at
19.2Kb

This looks a a workable solution for LXers. The modem is a serial port modem
that supports the AT command set.

      Hello all,

Have anyone used MEAN18, a 3D golf simulator? I have a copy,
but I don't play golf, so cannot tell if its a good game.
It does run on XT/CGA. If you think I could upload it some-
where. I really won't care for (c) & TM, but it was a commer-
cial software, however the company is long gone.

             Sincerely Yours: Tamas Feher.

Just the other day while I was mowing the back yard, this new limerick

The 200LX is my handheld,
I'll describe it: it's greenish and clamshelled.
It runs programs in DOS,
And it's too good to toss,
But the crack by the hinge needs a damn weld!

I have a Canon A5 and a  SV-209. Both use
compact flash cards with ATA format and produce
jpeg files readable on the LX (with LXPIC). LXPic shows you
200x 640 pixels (128K pixels), far less than the cameras produce,
except in low-res or small mode. You could probably produce
OK pics for the LX using a desktop graphic editor to tailor pix
for the LX. the 1.8" color LCD on the camera produces a MUCH
better images than the LX can. Neither is going to show where
the image is a "keeper", in focus, etc.....
The LX is not a Libretto with 640x480 Active matrix color.

I often have 2 or 3 DOS windows open on my W95 desktop.
Nothing beats the speed of using a batch file to get a
tidbit on information, such as a phone number. I use a DOS
file finder that allows you to select the drive(s) with multiple
wildcard patterns in one search.

GUI pgms are real good for the first couple days, keeping you
from returning it to the vendor.

Comments: To: LISTSERV@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I need some help with some surgury that I need to perform.  I have
three Palmtops - a 100LX, with a bad keyboard; a dbl-spd 5 MB 200LX,
that I did the upgrade on myself; and a 64 MB, with a shattered right
hinge.  I would like to mix and match parts to end up with two good
Palmtops.  I live in Indonesia, and so I can't send my Palmtops to
anyone for repair.

I guess I would ideally like to have the 64 MB motherboard with the 5 MB
screen frame.  The newer screen is a little brighter, and the keyboard
a little more responsive, so I would prefer to keep them with the
motherboard.  Basically I want to change the 5MB screen frame, with the
good right hinge, into the 64 MB motherboard and keyboard - and swap
the screens from the frame.

I would then like to take the 100LX screen frame (with the good, black
right hinge) and install it onto the 5MB 200LX.  It might actually be
easier to just put the 200LX motherboard into the 100LX, and then move
the screen and keyboard?  (Both are better on the 5mb 200).

Any suggestions on if that sounds like the best way to go?
Some Questions:

1). What size torx do I need to open the Palmtop up?

2). How do I remove a screen from a Palmtop?  Is it easy to take the
screen frame off, and install it into another palmtop?

3). How do I remove a keyboard from a Palmtop?  Is it easy to install
it into another Palmtop?

4). How much bigger is the 64MB motherboard?  If I moved the 64
motherboard into the 5, would I have to open some space under the
keyboard to accommodate the 64 motherboard?

I would like to do these modifications this week, because our daughter
goes to school on the 25th, and I want to have it done before then.
She is donating the 100LX to the cause, so she gets the 5MB
(black/grey) as a thank you.

Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions that you can give,

Steve Soper

Offhand, I forget, but I think this info is available in the "Hardware

I give instructions about that too.  Basically, you peel off the overlay,
undo the four screws, pop the rivets out of the holes, and swivel the
screen out around the lower-left corner, which has a grounding strap
soldered to it.  Desoldering that gets the whole screen out.

A lot trickier.  You'd probably be better off swapping the whole lower
part of the case.

I think the 64MB motherboard needs to have parts of the bottom of the
keyboard sanded down.  That could be a problem.

works great, as far as the computer is concerned it's any other modem.
it's easier to setup in win95 with the included software (or you can
futz with the AT commands, available on novatel's page).

In NYC under BAM, expect about 9600 bps average with a lot of flux.
Most people tend to agree with this number for cdpd service.

Yes, Thaddeus confirmed that last week while I was checking into
the prices of the 32/64/96 meg upgrades.  Avi had told me to pick
either the 32 or 96 meg upgrade, and stay away from the 64 meg
upgrade, because with the 64 meg upgrade, the LX has to be
modified in order to fit in into the case.  The nice lady at
Thaddeus <g> confirmed this, and said that sometimes the 64 meg
upgrade actually makes the bottom of the case bulge out a bit,
and therefore not sit completely flat, which people have
complained about.

In addition, the 64MB upgrade may make it more difficult to backlight the
LX.  I plan to go for the 96MB. <g>

T6  is the corect size. They are really hard to find, but I finally

Well thats what I thought, but after getting the price of the 96
meg upgrade, I will have to do some serious saving for it. :-(
Then how much extra will that backlight option cost?  :-)  Heck
by the time I get done, I will have to keep that car yet another
year.  Let see new car....new computer....hum....easy choice!

Sorry for the long quoting, but I wanted to address a few issues relating to
the above.  First of all the 96MB upgrades are not generally available yet
as I am having great difficultly finding stock on the chips I need.  Second
of all, I am in the process of reworking the 64MB upgrade to not require as
much or possibly no modifications to the 200LX.  It will be a smaller board
and will no longer extend past the PCMCIA connector.  It is still in the
works as I am still having the board designed.

Cheers,
Mack

I don't know about Avi but I have a Powershot A50 that is really
great. I haven't tried it with the 200lx but there is no reason it
wouldn't work as it makes normal jpg files on a standard fat16
formatted CF card. So pop it into an adaptor and into the 200lx and
you are ready to go. Great camera at a very reasonable price (less
than $450).

I've found that the smallest key in most cheap allen wrench sets works

 Well I have saved three years and have about 1200 dollars to throw
around, but looking at these prices it looks like I will only be able
to get the memory upgrade not the backlight.  Also I have decided to
invest my money back into the 200lx not into another system, I hope I'm
not putting money into a dead horse. Thanks for all your opinions.

Wow! Is Starflight the game where you develop your ships and fly to
planets and take the resources?
I played that game on an AT&T 6300 which had a proprietary CGA mode
that was 640x400. Heck of a game. Mid eighties IIRC...

Hi Alan

Monday, August 16, 1999, you wrote to me:

SA> I have just recently noticed that in Pocket Quicken my dates show up the

Pocket Quicken uses the LX's system date. The system date format may
be changed by:

MORE
S (for Setup)
F2 (Time/Date)
TAB (twice, to the date format box)
ARROW KEY (to whatever format you want)
ENTER

The format should now be changed (look in the upper-right corner of
the main SETUP screen).

You should notice that Pocket Quicken's date format has also changed.


Toodles,

This made me smile. Dial the clock back ten years, and re-read
the above with the word DOS in place of Win 95! I admit that it
does buy you a decade's grace.

John Musielewicz replied that CE would fail. Who knows; but I
have some empirical evidence. Here in the UK (London) our
shops are brimming with CE devices. I do most of my
palmtopping on public transport - bus & underground. Nearly
every journey I make I see someone using a Psion or a
PalmPilot even an LX sometimes! I have NEVER EVER seen anyone
using a WinCE machine. Mind you, our longest line from
Cockfosters to Heathrow is a two hour journey, so that might
explain it.

You put a variety of items together. I will take them on a
separate items:

WinCE: Sure it emerged several years ago, did you know? It
seems to be a platform catering to a part of the market, but
is no sequel to the 200LX. The WinCE made some converts from
the 200LX ranks, but I believe the opposite is true too - some
people bought WinCEs just to dump them and move up to the
200LX.

DOS' imminent death: It has been "dead" for several years, and
will probably continue to be "dead" for a number of years to
come. Companies who develop for WinCE claim DOS is dead, but I
have a suspicion of their claims. Is it possible they have an
agenda behind these claims?

At least the software house I run continues to write for DOS.
I expect that there are others, too.

Hardware not doing the job: I am puzzled by this. If it works
now, and assuming no breakages, why will the hrdware stop
working suddenly?

Import/Export woes: I think you are correct. But the question
is why import/export. If you must work in a corporate
environment, then it is a pain to some degree. You may want to
acquaint yourself with the array of conversion tools available
and the ones that keep coming. I assume you do not know about
some of things that have been achieved here by some very
talented people. Some of the conversion pains may be eased.

If you do not work in a corporate environment consider
realigning your work so you minimize (or eliminate) moving
information between palmtop and desktop. I have done this with
about 95% of my work (and I run four business interests now
almost entirely from the palmtop, so I can claim that with
some degree of credibility.)

<< We need a complete replacement, thus the 200lx is out
there,>>

Hold on! I think this statement needs much more support to
stand. I think the palmtop needs NO replacement, and I believe
I demonstrated this above.

<< Win 95 wil never be obsolete and there will always be
software that can easily be converted into the newest format
from Windows 95, hence this is the reason I am looking for a
replacement. >>

Win95 is already obsolete if you talk to Micro$oft. I think
there is some truth in what you say, but it is more like this:
Some people find Win95 to be sufficient for what they need and
have no interest or need to move to other versions of Windows.

The same style statement is true for the DOS - it is
sufficient for some people completely, or to a large degree,
and no need to move to other operating systems.

I am not sure why you are looking for a replacement. My
opinion on this question is that you have spent too little
time looking at all that you _can_ do with the 200LX, build
your expertise in this platform and thus make it work better
for you. I am also aware that such a process also takes time
and effort. When you face that expenditures, it may not be
quite  apparent that it is worthwhile, and so it is probably
easier to look for a replacement.

An alternative for you may be to use this group to learn what
_can_ be done with the 200LX, and what the extent of benefits
you should expect, and then decide if it makes sense to spend
time/effort to dig deep into this platform.

You have an advantage that there is a huge body of expertise
(I call it "tribal knowledge") in this group here. So maybe
you can describe what you do, how you do it, what you hope to
achieve, etc. I am confident lots of people will chime in with
valuable lessons.

You don't understand Micro$oft.  The same was said of Windoze 3.1.  DOS
outlasted that, and will outlast Win95as well.  The ÝQuick and¨ Dirty
Operating System is not dead yet.  I doubt if there is a pocket-sized
computer available today that will still have any value in 5 years, other
than the 1/200LX.

We can all be grateful to all the people who are still making our a truly
vital platform.

I posted this because my job requires very intense word proccessing,
and memo just didn't do the job, I recently bought wp5.1 off Ebay, and
it seems to do the job, I was looking at the PC110, this unit can run
word for win 95 quite nicely with all those formatting features, so I
was about to get that unit, but after I bought  wp5.1 I realized the
merits of the 200lx thus I am no longer looking for a replacement,
because in the end no replacement can beat the 200lx's battery life.
Especially for what I use it for.

In my earlier post I pointed out one of the merits of the 200lx and how
it helped recently, but I am still looking for a database program which
displays text on one side of the screen and a picture on the other
side, this database must have a search capability, does anyone know of
such a product? Thanks for your help. If someone could give me a
product, tommorow I will send my unit to Germany, since the have the
96mb upgrade available, for an immediate upgrade.Thanks for your help.

There was an add-on, possibly tsr by some Japanese programmer which
displayed pcx (I think) files juxtaposed to info in the dbase
application???  Now, what was the name of it......

Ipex.zip - not sure if it is available on the supersite or not.

I've just posted the latest version (1.4) of DBCHECK to my web page at
http://cameron.hplx.net.=20

DBCHECK is a program which checks your LX data files for corruption.
This latest version adds the ability to check password-encrypted files
(the password isn't printed out, but the "dump" switch prints out all
the file's data). It also now handles files with more than 50 fields
defined, thanks to one user who sent me a file with 92 (!).

I can't promise that it will catch every possible problem, but I've
come to trust what it tells me while looking at files people have sent
to me.

The source is included in case anyone is interested - it's in Borland
Turbo Pascal 7. The compressed EXE file is less than 10 KBytes.

Also, I took what Jan Brands and Gerhard Gonter had already done with
decrypting password-protected files, and was able to complete the job
of figuring out how the data in the files is encoded. If anyone is
interested, let me know.

Thanks for the update Mack.  Will keep this in mind while saving

I recently purchased a pc110 and it's keyboard is nowhere near as good as
the 100/200lx.  Battery life is a joke.  Word for windows 2 does run very
nicely, though.  Overall the x00lx is a better wordprocessor in my oppinion
though, due to the previously mentioned reasons.  Actually the best keyboard
I've ever had on a palmtop was the 95lx.  I found that she shiny surface on
the keys makes for even speadier typing than the x00lx keyboard, though in
other respects the keyboard appears identical.

Last year I upgraded my 200LX to 8 meg and DS.    In the last 12 months it has
locked up hard 4-6 times.     I have re-intialized the hard drive at least twice
which has taught me a lesson in regularly backing up my data.    I recall
reading several messages on this mailing list that indicate the 32 meg upgrade
is significantly more stable than the 8 meg.    Is this true?   I would
appreciate comments on this subject.

        The 32MB is a separate drive, so you have 32MB plus your
        original 1 or 2MB. If your have to reinitalize, only the
        smaller drive is initialized (which is C:\ at boot), so your
        large partition remains intact. Get a small FLASH card to keep
        your boot files backed up and your all set.

        The only time I had a 32MB partition go on me is when I
        let a machine sit utouched for too
        long, and the main & coin cells both went flat!

Does anyone know of any satellite tracking programs that run on the
HPx00? There seem to be quite a few available, and I would imagine that
someone has already tried them on the HP.

Here's what is loaded on my LX right now:

STS Plus
STS Orbit
Predict

I have also used TrakSat and OrbitsII. For Text predictions, I prefer
Predict (available at www.amsat.org) and for 'neat' map tracking I prefer
STS Plus (also available at www.amsat.org).

Since hints have been given here I wanted to update everyone on the latest
on backlighting.  I would actually have prefered to wait another two or
three weeks, but enough has come out, I thought it best to bring out where
we are at.

First, PLEASE don't call or email Thaddeus Computing. The up to date
information about backlighting will first appear here on this list and then
on HPHAND. The chances are you will know more here then our phone people who
only know and can talk about existing and announced products.

Secondly, as of yet, there is no backlighting, and it is possible there will
never be.

Third, if there is a product, John Musielewicz and David Sargeant deserve
all the credit with their testing and design.  John will be driving down to
our company next week to meet with us.

Fourth, Thaddeus Computing will be the exclusive distributor of such a
product. It is VERY likely that we will work with Tom Rundel in Europe and
others throughout the world, but PLEASE do not contact Tom.  (He is being
copied on this post and is the first time he has heard of it!) Again, you
will hear about availability and distributers first here.

We plan to begin beta testing very soon -- one to two weeks.  John will work
with our technicians to build me a prototype when he comes down next Mon.
(He is in Minnesota, we're in Iowa).

If everything goes as planned we want to have the product available in
October, in time for people to buy new palmtops and have them upgraded.

Backlighting will be software controlled -- a hot key or a simple program
will turn it on and off.

David and John have been happy with how it functions.  They think there will
be a 10-30% battery reduction depending on useage but that is not confirmed.

The new upgraded screen, even without backlighting will be more readable in
poor lighting and in sun light.

We expect about 1/2 hour of labor per upgrade.  The price will be under
$200, but final price has not been finalized.  Our current warranties and
extended warranties will apply.  We are trying to plan ahead to be able to
meet expected demand.  However, please be patient with us if there glitches
at the beginning.

In a recent Palmtop Paper and on HPLX.NET there is a nice write-up by David
that explains the technology.

The 64 meg unit backlight upgrade is probable, but not certain. We'll do our
best to work with our 64 meg customers to come up with a satisfactory
solution.

John and David can at their choosing answer tech questions you might have.
HOWEVER, PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS STILL IS NO PRODUCT.  Any
information that is given here may not in the end prove correct.

... and I wish to apologize to Hal for putting him in the position of
having to make that announcement.  Please contact me by private e-mail if
you absolutely have to ask anybody anything, and I'll do my best to answer
questions without giving away the trade secrets.  But don't contact
Thaddeus until the announcement is made, because they haven't the time to
answer questions when there are no firm answers yet.

Hi Folks, I just got to see Wired Magazine, Sept 1999 issue.
On page 48 they show a hand holding a square plate that seems
to glow white. The (very brief) story is about Mark Winsor (no
d) who devised a flat fluorscent lamp. He is Seattle-based
(Fred?) They talk about the light source being brighter and
more efficient than the CRT. It is used in aerospace
baklighting LCD cockpit displays. Now it seems this technology
is coming to civilian circles, avionics is a natural first,
but also into computers.

In view of the previous thread on LCD lighting for palmtop,
maybe this is of interest?

There was no more detail than I gave. Sorry.

Subject:      Post/LX and disconnect recovery.

Hi folks,

Been using Post/LX almost exclusively to download my Compu$erve email.  I've
made the mistake of marking a REALLY huge file Ýemail w/ *big* attachment¨
for download and am "stuck".

I get about 2/3 through w/ my messages Ýand 2/3 through w/ the BIG file¨ and
my connection bombs out.  I don't need the message and would "unmark" it,
delete it and be done EXCEPT _where_ does Post/LX keep the info on what it
is set to download? <and is it easy to edit?>

I want to delete darn near everything in my Inbox Ýor at least be given a
crack at it again and be able to pick headers, etc.¨.

After the first time out the marked headers "went away". I only know they're
still there because every time I log on I download the 10 or so messages
before the big one and have duplicates upon duplicates in my inbox Ýit seems
it deletes them from the server only *after* successful download of all the
messages¨.

I'm not looking forward to resetting an Outlook account to clean out my CIS
(I started to use the LX to clean out the mess Outlook would make w/
duplicate downloads!).

TIA for any help!

--tim

PS. I won't have to reinstall Post/LX will I?

Yes, but it isn't quite the same as "live" chat (although
often response time is as close to instantaneous as you can
get!). If the interest is there, I could easily set up a
chat room at my site (games.hplx.net) using a free package
that I know works. The only downside is that any online
chatroom won't be palmtop-compatible, because it needs a
Java-enabled browser.

If, however, you would like to see a chat area, please send
me a private mail at aj93@dial.pipex.com. Any suggestions
(times, topics, etc) also welcome!

Log onto your shell account, use ircII and go to one of the irc networks =
ie.
dal.net efnet or undernet and create one a chat room. Using ircII you can
use your LX. There's a PPP irc client named voice that also works well on
the LX, but it won't do DCC and you have to be familiar with ircII =
commands
and due to the lack of IDENT support it won't log onto all of the servers =
on
the different networks. I sure do wish we had a IRC client for the LX =
like
the CE folks do.... they have bIRC. If there are truly enough people
interested in chats, I could use an eggdrop bot on one of the networks to
keep control of the channel of we could register a channel on dal.net and
have OP's and AOP's to keep the CE folks off the channel.

My 2 cents...

A chat room would be an excellent place to _arrange_ to chat with
someone. (Or maybe to run across a fellow LX'r and just chat.) But I
doubt that it would be very practical as an LX forum.

The problem with chat rooms is that people actually have to _be_ there.
Even if you did get lucky and stumble across someone in the chat room
who could answer your question, the rest of the community couldn't
benefit from the answer.

So for technical questions, answers, announcements, etc. I think this
list is a far better forum.

How about Parachat, I heard that that was a good chat client, we could
still benifet from a chat room because it would be easier and quicker
to find answers to some of our questions, the chat room is not going to
be a replacement for this list, just an addition. What do you think?

From his post, I got the impression he thought it was already there. I
probably won't get the upgrade as it is not that important to me, but it
is great to see the continued development of products for the LX, and I'm
just curious about how you accomplished this.

I think it would be a terrific _addition_ to the list. Imagine this
scenario...
One of the LX developers posts an announcement of their software, and
says that they will be in the chat room at such-and-such a time for a
couple of hours to answer questions.

Or several people have the same printer problem and announce to the list
that they will be meeting in the chat room and such-and-such a time to
discuss this problem.

I think the key is that people should let the list know when special
meetings are occurring in the chat room.

That would be cool. : )

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who thinks the 95LX keyboard was
better than the 200LX keyboard! I had a hard time adjusting to the 200LX
keyboard when I retired my 95LX, and I still think that despite not having
used my 95LX regularly for the last couple of years, I can type a bit
faster on it than on the 200LX.

> say, anyone using this neat little phone?

Interesting phone but from my latest info the Infrastructure (Base =
Stations, et.al.)
is not yet upgraded to handle this data traffic.  Likely the issues
revolves around the need for separate radio channels used to TxRx the
terminal data stream at the BTS as well as the middleware issues of
Mobile IP, etc.

Specifically, the i1000plus(TM) sports TDMA Voice, 2-Way Radio (PTT), =
Alpha Paging,
Internet Microbrowser (UP.Browser & WAP), E-Mail, FAX, and 2-Way (SMS)
msg.  Also this phone/terminal will provide IETF's Mobile IP protocol =
layer
functionsality.  BTW it weighs 5oz or 142g.

Is it your interest/intention to use this iDEN terminal as a gateway, via
circuit switched mode, to the Internet?  Hmmm, sounds like expensive
e-mail.  The bottom line is that you can buy the i1000plus (TM) phone but =
it works
sporadically, if at all, in the USA.

FWIW - iDEN (Integrated Dispatch Enhanced Network) is high capacity =
digital
trunked radio system that provides voice and data services.  IDEN uses
M16-QAM digital modulation on 4 subcarriers this format involves both
amplitude and phase modulation. Additionally, it uses a VSELP speech =
coding w/ TDMA channel
access over a 25kHz RF channel; raw data 64 kbps.

I had to go to MEMO to do the job, as PE quits the Find box

Hi all,

I've found a chat-system that may work on the LX. It's called
Free Chat, and it is a CGI-based system which, according to
them should work on any browser, even Lynx! The URL is:

http://www.sonic.net/~nbs/unix/www/freechat/

If this seems good to you (or otherwise!), mail me at
aj93@dial.pipex.com. Hopefully, I'll have the chat forum set
up in around 12 hours!

I wonder if this relatively large number of Hams explains the type of
person attracted to the HPLX and therefore why HP decided to drop it?

Hams in general like to play with all the features of a device; they
want to use it all.  Many Hams are not just appliance operators.

I suspect we are out numbered by 'appliance operators' and that is why
HP went after that larger market with their CE devices.

Use "\<ascii code in decimal>" for such characters, e.g.

\010

for line feed or

\013

for carriage return. For more details, see PE.DOC. ;-)

Yeah, now I only have until October to save up for the 96 Meg
upgrade & the backlight option, lets see, counting how many
days, divided by how much money, is how much per day?  I guess I
better start putting more than my pocket change away!  Better
yet, do my four kids need all those new clothes for school, or
could they maybe cut back some?  Hum.

Hi Ian,

I actually had a copy of that, I bought it from AMSAT in the (distant)
past. I thought that it required an EGA display for the tracking map...
or perhaps I had a very old version. I'll have to look for my disk again
and try it on the HP, I think that I got it in the 1986 time frame.
Thanks Bryan

Here is part of my autoexec.bat, I tried the sample.gdb and the text.gdb from
Nancy, both works. But I hv to soft boot twice, don't know why, but it do
works.
Note, for the text.gdb, you hv change the "f:\???\text.pcx" in the 2nd field to
the directory you store the test.pcx. in my case, it is A:\db. If you hv put
the directory in the autoexec.bat like I did in the following, you can just
remove the f:\???. One more thing, the "P" in the data string must be in
Capital letter.

set temp=c:\temp
stef8b
buffmove
nofiddle
exkey -fa:\utl\exkey.ini
moreexm
ipex -fa:\db
200
ipex -r
stack

Hope this help.

Hi all,

I received a 125KB attachment with POSTLX yesterday and could
not save it (FILE M). A message said "Cannot create File".
There were about 7 MB free on my C Drive. So I copied the
mail to a flash card and tried with POSTLX on the desktop.
There FILE M worked without any problem.

Why could I save the attachment it on the desktop but not on
the HPLX ?

Greatful for advice
Winfried

2.6.2 runs on my 200 without difficulty. `Installing' it was a matter
of using COPY PGP.EXE from the appropriate place.

To use it, RTFM. There is too much to understand to bother repeating
it, and there's `nothing special' about using it on the 200. It just
works normally.

The idea of HPLX Chat strikes be as a very _bad_ and _foolish_ one.
The value of this list, such as it is, is that you can encounter
answers to questions that were asked days, months or even years ago.

Everything `chatted about' disappears, so all useful ideas that are
`chatted' rather than `listed' are most likely to evaporate.

While this might be the appropriate treatment for some of the
discussions here, _many_ of the discussions are valuable enough that
they should be saved and available to people other than just those
directly involved in the `current chat'.

`Chatting' about politics, sex, gun control, abortion, ... strikes me
as appropriate because there isn't much reason to save anyone's opinion
anyway. Information about the 200 is valuable enough that it is worth
much more than this.

Okay, I pubically admit that I somewhat agree with David Ness <watch for

are unrealistic, a text log could be kept and archived somewhere for =

You need to go to www.pgpi.com to get the versions you want.  If you are going to also use PGP on another system, watch out that you use a version with RSA keys on that other system; I use PGP 5.0i on Win95, and PGP 2.6.2 on the LX; they can read the same keys.   The commercial version of PGP 6 uses DH keys, so is not compatible with 2.6.2 on the LX.

I believe 2.6.2 is the last version that will run on a 80186.

If you are in the US you should read most carefully the information on the pgpi web page about the use of PGP *outside* the US and PGPi *inside* the US.

Did you provide an existing path? With enough space where the path
pointed to? If it was the root directory: there is a limit for the
number of files in a root directory. Do you have enough file handles
set with FILES= in CONFIG.SYS.

These are the points regarding file creation that come to my mind.

I used the undelete function from filer, to get back a file I deleted

but that didn't do much but take me back to the screen with the
gibberish I was forced to Hard reboot and get  rid of all my info,
luckily I backed up.

I have been using my Thaddeus upgraded DS 8 meg LX now since last
Christmas.  I also have a factory 4 meg LX and I have to agree
with Hal, that the upgraded one does not have anymore lock-ups
than my factory unit.  I do occasionally lock-up where
ctrl-alt-del does not work, and have to use ctrl-left shift-on to
re-boot, but I never had to choose yes, ever.  The only time that
I seem to really get hung up like that is when I am doing some
serious web browsing and run into some type of web page that HV
does seem to like and bang, it locks me up, but I am always able
to recover without loosing all my data.  I also do nightly and
weekly back-ups to my flash card, and that has saved my butt many
times from something stupid I have done, nothing that the LX
itself has done.  FYI.

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

Hi All,

Here's my thought on the problem.  I believe the crack might be
accelerated by opening and closing the HP very quickly, i.e.
less than a second or half a second.  I believe the damping
material in the hinge that give the soft open feel simply create
much more resistance and hence stress on the hinge due to
simple physic as force = velocity * damping constant.  I have
always open the cover very slowly, usually taking me 2-3
seconds to fully open the cover.  I have not seen any sign of
any problem for the last 3+ years.

Regards,
Alfred

Subject:        Pre-emptive hinge reinforcement ideas

I believe this has been discussed here before but I may have missed
details and I definitely WANT DETAILS.

Is there GOOD, EASY to interpret and read info on getting to the inside
of the screen lid to perform a "preemptive fix" of the area near the
hinge that is subject to breaking.  That is from the "back"
(inside/hidden surface) side?  A web page showing how?  A detailed text
file?  Someone save a message? (G)

I would guess somehow you have to get into and behind the LCD.  I'm
probably not going to rush into anything (being one of those who have
never really opened even the easier to access lower half of the HP200.)

Or is it not a fix for the faint of heart? (G)

I would guess that a plastic or other "patch" would be glued to the area
that is subject to the stress on the inside.  Hopefully, rather than
displacing the stress to another location, it would avoid it
completely???

Thanks for info....

The question I have is, did you answer "no" to initialize ram
disk first to see if you recovered, or did you automatically
answer "yes" wiping out all your data?

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

I've been tracking my investments with a simple spreadsheet. The other day
I found a program called Simplified Investment Manager (SIM) on Simtel that
does everything my spreadsheet does (only better) and then some.

Unfortunately it doesn't accept 2000 as a valid year. I can't find any
track of CanalRun, Inc., the company that made it, or another comparable
DOS program that is Y2K compliant.

What I'm looking for is something that will let me input dividend
statements, number of shares, current price, etc., (and keep a history of
it) and show me the current value, % increase, and maybe some graphs. SIM
is 138 K and fit my needs beautifully. I suppose all this is possible in
123 but requires a little more work on my end to keep it up.

Is anyone using a similar program or know of one that might fit the bill?

Thanks,
Don

Well that line of thinking just wouldn't work in a gun fight,
now would it mister? <g> Imagine taking that long to get your
weapon out of its holster, bang your dead! <g>

Seriously, I feel the hinge cracks are contributed to a very
tight hinge.  Anyone that has had only one LX only knows what
one hinge feels like.  If it weren't for the many units that I
had to keep sending back to HP under my extended service
contract, I too would have never known the difference between a
tight hinge and a loose one.

The last unit I finally got from HP, (due to the fact that the
reconditioned ones being sent to me, all had something wrong
with them, they finally sent me a new one) had a very tight
hinge, and that is when I used a very tiny drop of 3-in-one oil
to loosen it up.

That unit is now my back up unit, and my primary unit also has a
looser hinge, almost to the point of the lid not staying exactly
where you put it, (it likes to lay back all the way after a
while) which doesn't bother me because that's usually how I use
it anyway, and it has no indication of a hinge crack, yet. <g>

If it ever gets too loose, I would put a tiny drop of rubbing
alcohol to counteract the oil effect (I have done this and it
does work).  At work a co-worker has a LX, and once I opened his
lid and the lid was very tight.  I suggested to him to use the a
drop of oil to loosen up the hinge before he develops a hinge
crack, but he felt it would not be a problem, so I am just
waiting to hear the worst.

Interesting idea, but i doubt it would have the horsepower to keep things
playing
at a reasonable rate, then again i could be wrong.

If it had the horsepower, you could add a PCMCIA sound card with a headphone
jack, then it becomes a software issue... Are there any DOS MP3 players? and
what do they need to run?

You're right.  The 200LX has nowhere near the speed necessary to play MP3
files.  In addition, since it lacks an FPU, which it seems MP3 players
make heavy use of, even loads of speed wouldn't help much.  There's
probably not any feasible way to make the 200LX into an MP3 player.

Derive is a great program for dealing with symbolic math, though it also
can do numeric calculations if nessecary. Derive is still being sold,
check out http://www.derive.com for information.

There was a special version of Derive v2.5 released on a ROM card
specifically for the HP95LX some years ago. It was the same as the normal
version of Derive except it supported the 95LX's display and was optimized
to use less power.

From version 3.0 and onwards, support for the 95LX's display was
incorporated into the main program, while for earlier versions there is a
program on the SUPER site (in the 95LX section) that will fool Derive into
thinking the 95LX has a CGA display and then use a softfont technique
similar to Dave Goodman's to display more than 40x16 characters. The
program, called Derive Shell, has a few quirks and is a bit slow, but
generally works very well.

BTW. please stop posting in *both* plain text and HTML. Text is enough.

unless you put hardware decoding on the PCMCIA card as well as the analog
audio hardware. I think the MP3 compression is high enough that the
processor could keep feeding the compressed audio fast enough.

Rod,

the network solution, you did provide a few days ago, is a real
outstanding piece of work.

Along with the new lxcic it solves a lot of typical hp200lx problems.

Rod and Stefan thanks a lot.

But I do have still an open desire. Unfortunately I never could get
the DOS RAS Client (part of the NT Sever package, CD \clients)
properly working on my hp200lx DS. May I ask you to include the DOS RAS
Client into your network package? This would make the package complete.

Regards

Helmuth

Unfortunately, I didn't actually have enough time to read
all the details. In a nutshell, I can't use this package for
a chat room on my site (the CGI/Perl combination isn't
compatible with my ISP), but maybe there's somebody out
there who could do it on theirs...

In the meantime, I'm on the lookout for an alternative (and
perferably palmtop-friendly) solution.

where to get one.... the Motorola site doesn't seem to have one.  Any
help would be appreciated!

Yep..I like it here.. I do not have time to discuss "online". Therefor
it is very nice to download the messages that I want and reply

I use www/lx on my laptop for downloading/uploading news/mail. I have a
external Us Robotics V90 modem. And I use palrun.

I have problems sometimes to connect to my isp (Tele2). I try to
connect to a V90 node, but many times I get:

connect 45333....done
Pap done
ISPC -----here my modem/www/lx disconnects

I can't remember if it was exactly ISPC..but it is the last
"thing" that are supposed to be "Done"

I do not know if this is only Tele2's fault, or who's fault it is. I
can press F5 and connect 2 seconds later with no problem. And I can
connect without any problems to a 33.6 node everytime..

Well I have gotten a initstring that are supposed to help

at+ms=12,0,45333,48000

Where can I add this to the cfg's. Or is it something else I can do to
get a more stable connect to a V90 node.. will the FIFO statment help?

I am lost here..Tele 2 helpdesk can not help me at all..

It's cheap and nasty (mainly because I hope that it's
palmtop-friendly), but it could suffice until someone can
come up with a better effort. Try the following URL:

http://tectonicdesigns.com/chat/multi.cgi?area=3Dmwagstaff&mode=3Dnoframes

I haven't been able to test it out with an LX browser,
because my palmtop connection is currently playing up, so I
would appreciate it if people could check whether it works
with HV, Nettamer, Lynx and any others people might be using.

The Accton EN2216-1 ethernet card works a lot better than the Silicom
card, I've found.  It can be ordered from www.hardwarestreet.com or you
can search for prices at www.shopper.com.

Hi Cliff.

I'm not familiar with Print Rite, but you may want to try the DOS SETVER
command which lets you fake out application software that looks for a
specific DOS version.  Find it on any desktop version of DOS.

I don't have the first clue about RAS.  Can you explain what it is and
why you use it ?  I also don't have the NT Server package.

Is this with the 800 On or Off. If you are connected to AC
power and turn off the 800 with the blue On/Off switch, the 800
will continue to spin up the disk occasionally. If you use
Start/Suspend to shut the machine down, the disk should be off.

If this noise is being made when the machine is on, you have
have enabled FastFind when you transferred the operating
system. FastFind will build an index of the hard disk and
keep updating it.

Did you change anything else when you switched disks?

I fully agree that the real issue should number of hours that
the battery operates between charges. However, why are you so
convinced that the voltage reached during charging is unrelated
to the time between charges and why are you so convinced that
charging to a high voltage shortens battery life? Have you run
controlled tests with sample sizes that are statistically
significant? If so, have you published any data? Almost all of
us are providing our own experiences based on a very small
number of cells for each person. Until someone runs a test with
a large number of cells under controlled conditions I think we
should all be careful about the "facts" we publish.

I have the Nextel Iden 1000.   I like the phone and have no problems in any
city in the US with connections.  However, I have been told that the
internet connection is "yet to come."  I talked to a local Nextel service

I vaguely remember that one drawback is a very limited number of recharge
cycles before the battery goes bad - perhaps 100 or fewer?  I'm not sure but
you might want to confirm/refute this before buying.

Either launch WWWSETUP and enter it into the field "Modem Init" for the

RAS stands for Remote Access Service. It provides the *complete* network
functionality using serial link. WIN95, WIN98 and Win NT can act as a
RAS Server which allows you to dial in.

So far I know, each NT Sever CD (since version 3.X) contains the RAS =
clients
files for DOS. Former versions are based on NETBEUI, latest versions
also include TCP/IP.

Subject:      Re: External MP3 solution for the 200LX
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-2"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

     Hello all,

I think it is possible to provide the 200LX with a useable MP3
player feature. Of course it will not use the 80186 CPU, that's weak.

It should be an external device (I think package as small as the
volume of a single AA battery would be possible), which hooks
onto the serial port of LX. It contains a DSP based decoder, as
digital signal processors require less juice to operate then
the MCU/CPU based floating point solutions.

Only problem is that common MP3 files are 128kb/sec, whereas
RS-232 is set at max. 115200bps, that is exactly 10% less through-
put, than desired. I think the 128kbps MP3 "CD-quality" standard is
about to be stable for a a good while. Solution is compression:

ACE v1.2b can compress MP3 files by app. 4,5% and I was told by
Fraunhofer IIS, that theoretically MPEG 1/2 Layer 3 files (MP3
music files) contain at least 15% of redundancy, that is they could
be lossless compressed by this much.

All we need is a programmer, who writes a lossless compacter, which
is optimized for MP3 files. Then the operation of the theoretical
LxMPEG player would be like this:

MP3 files reside on your flash PCMCIA/CF cards or memory disk, in a
compressed form. A simple file transfer program feeds this file to
the RS-232 port of the HPLX, which feeds this data to the clip-on
MP3 player module. This device contains the components: decompressor
stage (small MCU based unzipper), smallish buffer (say 128 kilobytes
OK), DSP-based MP3 decoder, A/D converter, minimal audio amplifiers,
headphone jack. It could run on power provided via the RS-232 port
of the 200LX.

You could detach it and leave at home, if you don't need music.
Operation should be simple: you download lots of bootleg MP3 from
net, causing a great loss of $$$ to Sony Music, Columbia, etc...
then compact them using that MP3 aware compresser program (say a
modified version of ARJ or ZIP) and transfer them onto the
LX's flashcard or ramdisk and play. (Probably the compresser would
run on the LX itself, no need for a desktop PC, if you  download
with WWW/LX or so).

            Sincerely Yours: Tamas Feher.

Hi

Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I've looked through the archives and I can't
find an answer. Is it possible to configure POST/LX so that it only
retrieves unread messages from the POP server? I need it to leave mail on
the server so I can retrieve it with my desktop mail program, but at the
moment I get a fresh copy of all the messages each time I run POST/LX.

There is already a high speed external connection available out of the 200 -
the PCMCIA slot.

As with everything, it boils down to how many units can reasonably be
expected to sell. If its 5000+, then something can be done using a Philips
solution at an acceptable price point.

The path is c:\temp, and it does exist ... my God, just

ago (...large amount of ACRONYMS following...)! After
recreating the directory the attachment was, of course, saved
normally.

Sorry for that. Find and replace works too well now:  I find
stupid questions and replace them successfully with even more
stupid ones !

Thanks and regards

Derive is a symbolic math program that runs very well on a 200lX.
I got the latest version last spring(4.11 at the time).It has
both 16 bit and 32 bit versions so you can also run it on a 386+ if you
have one, to take advantage of extra memory and speed. You can set the
display for the 95LX. There are many free add on packages with advanced
functions. Check out
www.derive.com
for a complete description of capabilities and pricing.There is also a
review on David Sargeants site
www.hplx.net
For me, it is one of _the_ indispensable programs and a great stopper
when the WinCE boys get too uppety.
I have used it to survive 4 terms of math so far and plan on using
it for several more. If you don't want to spend the money MPP and
MPP3D (SUPER?) give you some of the graphic functions.

I *may* make it - but I'm returning from another boring business trip
in Hawaii early Saturday morning.  With the time zone changes, and the
long red-eye flight home, I probably won't be worth anything for a day

I believe that it should work and in post.cfg, I cannot even find a
setting that affects RE-reading.  The only parm I see is:

Del=0


Which means DO NOT DELETE on server (which you apparently want set that
way so that they are left for later retrieval on another system).  But
that other system will SEE ALL messages and retrieve them.

Another BUT ....  But post/www/lx on your HP should not keep retrieving
the same messages over and over.  Post keeps a file with "message
identifiers" and matches that file (id's) against your pop3 server and
should not grab the same messages over and over.  The file is POST.OLD
and here's an example of its entries:

<777777777517.7516@miw.worldnet.att.net>
<77777777ea02$31c3c3e0$8a01a8c0@jfh.ut.edu.au>
<77777777777Gf.3A4ZKy5k@reeyellow.com>

(I editted it a bit to cover any info)

Now, if your isp using some strange method of creating message
identifiers, Post.old may not be able to handle it.  We found in early
testing AT&T used odd methods and Post did not originally account for
that.

So, you might want to look to see if you are creating a post.old after
an online run.  Make sure you have a large enough Files statement in
config.sys, and room for post to create the file (altho, I suspect post
would object if it could not create the file)

And maybe that DEL= does have a setting to not 'mark' already downloaded
messages.  I have not checked the doc or online help! (G)

Hey David,  thanks for the advice on going to the HPLX.net site to get
information.  Now that I've started the surgery I have some additional
questions.  Because of your advice about Not disassembling the Right
Hinge, I'm leaning towards just moving the 5 MB motherboard to the
100LX, and the 64MB to the 5MB case.  So now the questions are:

Are the 100LX and the 200LX cases close enough that the 200 motherboard
can be just dropped in?

Are there any major changes that need to be made to fit the 64MB
motherboard into the 5MB body?

Thanks again for any help,
Steve Soper

The cases are pretty much identical other than color.  It should be able
to be dropped in, no problem.

I don't have the upgrade, but from what I've heard some of the "keyboard
ridges" on the underside of the keyboard may need to be sanded down to
make room for it.

In the 200LX system manager menu, at the "Applications" drop down window,
the "Terminate All..." option should (and has in the past), terminated all
active applications.  However, when this option is now selected, I get=20
"C:\_DAT > Buddy is still loaded..."=20

I have gone into Buddy's "Other Settings" at the "Unload Buddy when
 terminating sysmgr" option and have deactivated&rebooted and then
reactivated&rebooted several times and can not get this function to
activate again.

The "CTRL/SHIFT/ON" reboot has not helped.

This "Terminate All..." option is used rarely by me, so I don't know when
this problem  started but I have loaded new software recently.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

OK,

I've been on the list long enough that I "know" the answers to this question
have surely passed by me before.  But, I still gotta ask.  I know that modem
speeds through the serial port are in reality limited by the UART chip.
Through the PC card slot I feel that the processor/bus speed is probably the
limiting factor.  Somewhere in here software must play a part.  Can someone
give me a brief synopsis of the above.

The reason I'm asking is that I'm getting a new modem for the laptop and
I've ordered a 56K from Silicom.  (The people that make one of the ethernet
adapters that work in our lx's.)  Their specs show it as using "115mA
(active), 45mA (sleep)" and working with DOS.  I'll use it even if it does
not work with my 200lx but does anyone know what may or may not work with
this, and if I could expect any boost over my XJ2144?

Web page for above specs:
  http://www.silicom-usa.com/modem_56.htm

TIA,
bob

115mA wow! I have been playing with different modems for the past couple =
of
weeks and did not realize there was a 56K modem that used this little =
power.
It probably won't do 56K in the LX, but it should do more than 14.4.

The maximum theoretical bandwidth from the PCMCIA bus is 2MBytes/sec.
However, the processor takes around 7 processor clocks (depends on the type
of mov instruction) to do a read plus 3 clocks for the branch instruction,
so the maximum the processor can do is 1 MB/sec. Both of these are well
above the 56Kbits/sec (or 5.6KBytes/sec) theoretical maximum of the modem.

Of course, your communications software needs to be doing a lot more than
just reading registers to do anything useful, but it will have lots of time
between characters to do it.

Hi all,

I've found a chat-system that may work on the LX. It's called
Free Chat, and it is a CGI-based system which, according to
them should work on any browser, even Lynx! The URL is:

http://www.sonic.net/~nbs/unix/www/freechat/

If this seems good to you (or otherwise!), mail me at
aj93@dial.pipex.com. Hopefully, I'll have the chat forum set
up in around 12 hours!

Well I should have told you that I have tried this. In the above
initstring there is no command for the modem to dial. I get
"Initializing modem" and then I get a error message.

This initstring is actually a extra initstring which I am supposed to
enter under Control Panel/modems in Win 95/98.

But there are no place to enter this extra init anywhere in www.cfg..

Steve,

I'm glad you posted about ZZT. I too discovered it a few weeks
ago, and almost commented on it, but changed my mind.

It's a good game in its own right, with hundreds of extra maps
written for it. But for me the best thing is the editor. It
designs maps for the game as you'd expect, but also the whole
game runs within an event driven loop, with each object in the
game able to send and respond to messages. It has its own
object-centric programming language. It's a gem, and it all
runs on a standard 1/200LX.

Another impressive feature of the game engine is that the event
loop tries to process about 5 messages a second regardless of
CPU speed. Therefore the game plays pretty much the same on an
LX as on a 500MHz PIII (CGA mono!).

If you like games and you like programming, you should
definately check it out.

Chris R.

Indeed, I said the 64MB has to be modified to fit it. The 32MB
and 96MB upgrades also require a modification to the "insides"
of the palmtop.

In the case of the 64MB, because of the size of the board
being added, the modification is a bit larger, entailing
slightly sanding down some plastic connector.

There is also some slodering of wires required in all three
types of upgrades. As you surely read, Mack is working on
reworking that 64MB board so it fits better with less
modification.

The point of what I said is that if you want to minimise the
modifications of your machine with an upgrade, the 32MB and
96MB are better upgrades - they mean a bit less changes
internally.

In no way did I mean that the 64MB is a "bad" upgrade so stay
away from it! I have 3 palmtops and TWO are 64MB - and I had a
choice what to do with them.

So if anyone understood that I am somehow talking down the
640mb upgrade - that is NOT correct. My two 64MB machines are
work horses and they work VERY VERY hard and I have had ZERO
problems with them.

Some of us are purists and wish an an modified machine. The
maximum you can get is a single speed, 4MB machine (BTW - J&R
In NYC has several hundred of these puppies for $576 each!)

If you want minimal modifications, look at the smaller
upgrades such as 8MB.

With 32MB you get the same modifications, but pay more. 64MB
is more mods yet. The 96MB is about the same amount of work
inside as the 32MB.

I would have NO hesitation to get the 64MB, the current model
or the next design - I have been using the current design and
it gives me ZERO troubles.

I know about the tiny tendency to bulge, but neither of my
machines experiences this, although I have seen it on other
machines occasionally. It takes a bit of careful preparations
and proper closing of the machine.

I am sorry if what I said may have created any concern in
anyone's mind.

You can now buy those online at games.hplx.net <g>
Seriously though, I don't see an online chat forum as a
direct "competitor" to the HP-LX list. It could be fun for
the occasional less palmtop-specific chat, however, or even
a Q&A session with a "star name" from the LX world. If,
however, the demand is not there, then I'll remove it.

Jeremy,

Yes, possible. It was there for a long time now.

Set up the mailbox to NOT DELETE after d/l. It will
do/l what is there, then next run it will skip those emails
that have already been downloaded once before.

This will work only if your ISP support UIDL which identifies
each email piece uniquely. Most ISPs do.

Enjoy.

That was solved a long time ago. The issue was actually with
Outlook keeping a separate copy identifier. When you deleted
stuff from its POP3 side, it still had things on the server
and when using Outlook directly you got the deleted messages
again! A real PITA...

That part was not solved - it is in Outlook..

The XXXXX.OLD file is created automatically when you UNCHECK
the DELETE AFTER DOWNLOAD in SETUP.EXE - MAIL...

Please don't mess with it directly... The author will be on
your back in the Beta for the transgression :-) ...

I remove the PC Card to my "other" machine - IBM TP600 Win98 to see the =

Works for me.

BTW I also run a few "natural" satellite SW apps. too - for sailboat =

Hello all!
I've been playing around with Agenda and Dosshell and the 200 apps, and
like the freedom that Dosshell gives me.
I suspect all you SC users out there are laughing, but I decided many years
ago that I would try to adapt to the 200 apps instead of forcing the 200 to
run Foxpro, 1-2-3 and WordPerfect under Desqview - a job I knew it wouldn't
do well anyway.

Well, now I've tasted freedom, and I like it! Not because the 200 apps are
limited, theyr'e great at what they do, but because of the sense of freedom
that plain old DOS brings.

But we LX'ers are not completely free to enjoy DOS, as I found out when I
tried to make clipboard s/w work on the 200.

I've tried several, Snipper, dosclip, Metro, etc, but they either lock up
when the 200 apps are loaded, or they fail to respond inside them.

So, my plea to the group is this:
Does anyone know of clipboard s/w that allows transfer of text between DOS
and  the 200 apps? (Using either SC or Dosshell)

Hopefully,

Paul Rasmussen

The README for the Microsoft Network Client (which is what my
network package is based upon) says the RAS client needs the full
redirector to be loaded.  Unfortunately, you can only load the basic
redirector on a 80186.

Dear Group,
        Thanks for having such a great list and group.
        I recently upgraded my motherboard and now seem not to be able to connect.
I did the normal things like unplugging and replugging, matching the baud,
lowering the baud, reading the manual for socket correctness but still no
connection. I have two serial ports UART Com1 is the mouse and Com two
should be the HP.
        Any ideas?
        Sincerely,

Yes. A modem initialisation string is not a dialling string.

What if you use DataComm and enter that string. Do you get "OK" or
"ERROR". If the latter, it is an invalid init string for your modem.

WWW/LX is not a Windows product. Forget all instructions for Windows.
They do not apply.

Hi Tom & List
New motherboards with Onboard Com ports usually have a different
cable to external Com socket than old onCard Com ports. Are you
 using the com socket/cable that came with the board?
I tripped over this myself - even though they look the same the
old will not work. My problem was Com2 supplied was 25pin so I
put in a 9pin and it didnt go...Does the mouse work on com2?

Good Luck
John

That's what I thought. Post/LX implements everything else so well, I was

I'd already looked at that. It's been set to NOT DELETE (i.e. it's
unchecked) all the time, and DEL=0 is definitely in the POST.CFG file (I
looked, but I didn't touch!).

I'm pretty sure my ISP supports that, but I'll double check with them to be
sure. One thing I do know is that they want us all to move over to IMAP
clients, and so POP access, while not actively discouraged, has minimal
support if things go wrong.

 I have a few other accounts scattered thither and yon, so I'll see if I get
the same hiccup with them.

Oh, I do that anyway :). I've come up with a workaround which uses procmail
(a damn fine program IMHO that does wonders for my mail), but is a tad
ungainly.

OK, it looks like a server problem, as when I use one of my different

wasn't generating a MAIL.OLD file with my main server either. To borrow a
phrase from Avi, what a PITA. A RRPITA (Right Royal PITA) in fact....

I think you are half-right... larger numbers keep the WinCE platform
going, and smaller numbers have not kept the HP LX platform going
(plus parts availability, etc.).

Having worked for several years in software houses, I can imagine
that passionate arguments surround each feature of the HP LX
platform, and that the end-users fully exploit those hard-won features
will make the designers feel good about their decisions.

Aside: I wonder if the DOS license that HP signed for the LX platform
is about to expire, and re-negotiating it would have raised the license
fee (assuming MS would renew the license). I don't know that MS would
have a seperate license for each platform (like the LX), but it is an
interesting thought. I am not MS bashing, just wondering out loud...

With RIOs selling for less than $100, why *must* we find a
way to play MP3 files on our HP LXs? Memory for an LX
is *much more* expensive than a RIO, and if we assume
that the LX playing MP3s were to be as efficient as the
RIO (with regard to battery life), I think you would see your
battery life shrink from weeks to hours.

A 32 Meg RIO is < $100, a 32 Meg upgrade for an HP LX
is a bit more...

Just my $.02 worth,

Has anyone thought about hacking a connection of some sort for an external
keyboard?
How would one go about undoing the clips and removing the HP95 keyboard to
investigate the matter?

so if i squeeze a rio into the lx case, does it double as a ram upgrade

Why is the DOS SW licence needed????? to improve the LX?
The new improved ultra LX 1000 would be just as great.

Avi,

Sorry if I choose the wrong choice of words of: "stay away
from", rather than: "recommended the 32 or 96 meg upgrade", in
my previous messages.  I thought I understood your
recommendation to me, but somehow when I quoted what I thought
you had wrote to me, I was wrong enough to require you to post a
clarification to the group.  I will try to be more careful next
time not to misquote you so.  There was no ill intentions on my
part passing on what I thought you had passed on to me.

<< I've made the mistake of marking a REALLY
huge file Ýemail w/ *big* attachment¨ for download and am
"stuck". >>

So if I interpret what you say right it means you were
downloading headers only and had this message with a H and
marked it for download, right?

<< I get about 2/3 through w/ my messages Ýand 2/3 through w/
the BIG file¨ and my connection bombs out.  I don't need the
message and would "unmark" it, delete it and be done EXCEPT
_where_ does Post/LX keep the info on what it is set to
download? <and is it easy to edit?>  >>

You cannot directly unmark it. What you can do is look for
file XXXXXX.DOW where XXXXXX is the name of the mailbox
involved. In that file are entries which identify each item to
be downloaded.

You can just delete the file, but if there are files you
marked and have not yet successfully downloaded, they will not
be downloaded.

The other way to work it is realise that the identification of
each email sits in that entry. So, painfully :-), you will
have to look at the message you are trying to download and
find a header called X-UIDL which contains that unique id.

Then go to the XXXX.DoW and find the exact entry, and remove
it.

This is not easy and not comfortable, but it is ASCII :)

<< I want to delete darn near everything in my Inbox Ýor at
least be given a crack at it again and be able to pick
headers, etc.¨. >>

Well, there is also a file called XXXXXX.OLD. the entries in it
idetify what was already downloadedbefore, if you do not
delete messages immediately after getting them. You can delete
that file and get back again all the messages you and select
what you want.

<< After the first time out the marked headers "went away". I
only know they're still there because every time I log on I
download the 10 or so messages before the big one and have
duplicates upon duplicates in my inbox Ýit seems it deletes
them from the server only *after* successful download of all
the messages¨. >>

Yes, XXXXX.DOW is where they are. Since you no longer have the
original headers, what you will need to do is identify the
ones you have and find they UIDL and remove those from the
XXXXXX.DOW, and that way eliminate the duplicates, and that
will bring you to the one big file message...

<< I'm not looking forward to resetting an Outlook account to
clean out my CIS (I started to use the LX to clean out the
mess Outlook would make w/ duplicate downloads!). >>

At one point there was a problem that Outlook kept messages in
the "Outlook side" even though it allowed you to manage them
on the POP3 side, including delete them. They were deleted
fine on the POP3 but then were appearing still when you used
Outlook directly. This is NOT a Post/LX issue - since Post/LX
cannot reach through the POP3 to the insides of Outlook and
delete messages in there. (You have read my pitch about
Magic/LX - out all around program that will do everything you
_want_ to do, not what you _say_ you want to do. It will for
example copy files to a safe spot when you mistakenly delete
them, because it will _know_ you made a mistake. That program
is in early alpha tests scheduled for some time in the future.
We believe release date will be February 30 but not sure about
the year yet! :-) ... That program will also be able to fix
Outlook.)

<<  PS. I won't have to reinstall Post/LX will I?  >>

This should not cause you any twinges! We set it up so you
simply run the self extracting archive and replace All and you
are done. the CFG file and the other auxiliary files are
untouched.

But I don't think you need to worry about reinstall at this
point. If you have an older version and haven't updated your
copy, you should do so anyway, regardless of this issue, just
so you have the latest and greatest.

The most awkward situation with customers is when they assure
you they have the latest, but strangely they have a problem
we solved three versions ago. After you bust yourself for
hours on the problem you find out that they haven't updated
after all since Roman times. And miracles! - when they do the
problem goes away. These are times when I want a Magic-Choke/LX
program to fulfill my momentary desires :-)

Enjoy.

Rod,

I did some testing for about 5 hours with your latest network solution
using NETBEUI.

It works great.

My respect, also the hp200lx as server works flawless.

It is another dimension, which was added with this feature.

Thanks a lot.

So much better than the way I put it ;-)

I moved both .DOW and .OLD to another directory and downloaded all the
headers again.  Didn't mark the big files for download this time.  Seems to
have fixed everything Ýand it looked like I got a shot at getting the other
files too¨.

Um. I didn't see how to do this.

Can Post/LX look at the message headers and show them to you "live" without
downloading them?  Or is there another way to "peek" at the headers w/o
using Post/LX? <<this *is* CompuServe; and not my local (user friendly)
ISP>>

I saw text like:

MC2-80BC-5553

in the MAIL.DOW, but didn't know how to "decode" that to equate to a message
I'd planned to download.

re: Outlook:
>fine on the POP3 but then were appearing still when you

and.....

Well, I imagine not. Though a "magic" program like this may be
useful.....especially the part about "knowing what not to delete DESPITE my
commands to the contrary ;-)

Thanks for the help!

(all seems to be back to normal; but, I'd love to hear more, at your
leisure, about the "MC2-80BC-5553" stuff).

I read somewhere that it is possible to put other stuff other than MP3
files on the rios, for example, doc files, etc, so if the rio was
coupled with the 200lx it could make for inexpensive storage, and
double as a MP3 player, all we need now is someone to right the
software, so the 200lx can connect with the rio or anyother type of MP3
player. Thanks Ashwin

I think part of the problem might be that the Sysmgr apps are running
in a graphic screen mode and many tsr's (i.e. clip programs) will refuse
to pop-up over a graphic screen.

There is still Gilles' Clipvue program which takes an extra step or two.

Wow!  Those things cost well over 100 pounds here in the UK - $160 plus.
Mind you, I don't think I'd buy one because they only run at 128 kbit
encoding rate AIUI, which is pretty abysmal sound if you're used to =

hi-fi. My recommendation would be a MiniDisc player. Now when *they* =

Why do you ask? I thought there was some general `conclusion' here that
a chat room was, generally speaking, a pretty poor idea.

Why would you think there's a boycott?

I now use xfinder as a document storage system. I keep a whole bunch of

then created a small utility that I can xfnmkr.exe. It will read the first

Hi Listers,

I'm about to buy a Citizen PN50 printer.
It's a thermal printer, using a ribbon.
Does anyone know if it can print to thermal paper,
like fax etc., directly, without a ribbon?

I have a PN60 and based on that I am pretty sure the answer is no. It
has sensors to determine the presence, duration and remaining duration
of the ribbon. If you just want a black and white printer and can put
up with thermal paper then I would strongly recommend the Pentax
Pocket Jet thermal printer over the Citizen devices. As I see it:

Citizen
 - Prints on good quality paper including letterhead, transparencies, envelopes,
colour (PN60 models)
 - consumable cost (ribbons) is high
 - noisy and slow

Pentax
 - fast, thermal paper only, special Pentax thermal paper is reasonable
 quality
 - output is of sufficient quality to be photocopied onto good quality paper
 or transparencies when required but no envelopes or colour possible
 - consumable cost is low
 - HP laserjet compatible

IMO the Pentax has a much greater quality feel than the Citizen. The
reason I have the Citizen is because of the perceived need for colour
when I bought it - given the cost of the colour ribbons I have found
ways to very much limit colour use.

Subject:      An LX software wish...
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I would love to see a piece of software for the LX modeled after a windoze
freeware program called TreePad (www.treepad.com).

Treepad displays a split screen. On the left side you have a modifyable tree
structure, and on the right side you have an "article" associated with each
"node" of the tree. Function keys 10,11 & 12 let you show just the tree, the
tree & article, or just the article.

This type of 'tree' structure is excellent for projects and project notes,
Todo lists, Contacts, Writing a book where each node is a chapter, storing
info gathered off the net or elsewhere, etc. (Other programs of this ilk are
Infoselect for Windows, Zoot, Squrl, and InfoTree32)

Although Treepad is a windoze program, and you normally use the mouse to
navigate around in it... you can just as easily navigate thru it using the
keyboard. In fact, I find the keyboard commands Treepad uses to be very easy
and intuitive.

Additional features that would be neat:
1. Special nodes that could call up .*db files with it's associated app.
2. A "Filter" feature that would only show nodes with a specific word in it,
and then an option to create a permanent subset out of the nodes in the
filter. (Infoselect for Windoze has something like this).

FFDB is already somewhat similiar to what I'm describing. Basically if you
stuck a tree structure in there you'd be pretty close.

I'm not a DOS programmer, so all I can do is toss the idea out there and
wish! <g>
Would anyone else out there like to see something like this??

Cheers,
Steve

Paal,

Since I know that you also postet to the PIM list you are obviously looking
into some sort of PIM with easy copy/paste between files.

Have you checked Andreas Garzotto's PE/PIM package. PE lets you easyly cut
and paste between appointments, notes, databases and the like.

OK... question for you Derive users on the LX.

I need to find an exponential function that will include the points (1,6)
and (3,24) of the form y=a*b¬x.

The answer (from my TI-86 calculator) is a=3 and b=2, but the FIT function
doesn't seem to give me a decent regression.  Am I going about this the
wrong way, or is Derive unable to do an exponential regression?  Thanks.

It did not "fix" anything. Nothing was broken, you just took

If it sees something, the information came to the palmtop
(also kown as "download" :-) ...) There is this mystical sense
that Post/LX runs on the _other_ machine out there - it does
not. The two machines/programs communicate and Post/LX asks
for things, the other side obliges.

If you look in the docs for Post/LX you will find that there
are two modes to download: The full thing, and headers only.
Highlight the box and press D several times - you'll see
downarrow (d/l all), H - headers only, and nothing - don't
d/l. Additionally you can specify that you want to see the
first x lines from each message, in case that helps you orient
yourself. You know how I feel about docs so I won't repeat the
information that is easily found there.

> I saw text like:
>
> MC2-80BC-5553

Look in the headers of the message (try the Help topics again
to tell Post/LX to display all the headers, or just browse in
the Menu pulldown commands - you'll find stuff if you try...)
Anyway, in the headers look for something like X-UIDL, just
like I told you in prev. post. The stuff after that is the id
of the message.

Nothing to decode. As I told you before - it is ASCII
information. Could be numbers, characters, combinations,
whatever...

No idea what this is. As I said, the unique identification can

Hi longdon,
As I don't have derive ( so this may not help) but you might try the
solution
a=6 and b=1.261859
this is the solution that lotus in the hp200 gives (after converting the
problem to be linear in logs).  Not having a unique solution to the problem
may be part of the reason derive and the TI don't agree.

I was wondering about the decision to drop the 200LX by HP.
My thought was that MS may not be that interested in selling
any more MS DOS licenses, prefering to sell higher-value
Win(CE|95|98|NT|2000) licenses.

New machines would need OS licenses, even if HP were to
adopt OpenDOS, they would have to pay a fee to Caldera...
HP would also have to certify that OpenDOS is 100% comptible
with the previous MS-DOS 5.0...

Just my $.02,

OpenDOS would need to be certified - HP could not

suprising (to me) that there has not been a stampede to this
new tool.  It may or may not be adopted, but it will take a few
days for interest to develop (IMHO)...

The list mode of the built in hp calculator will do exponential regression,

If I want to export all my messages from my outbox (or any folder) to a
_file_, can I do that any faster than choosing one message and
Export..choosing another one and Export again.

I would like to mark multiple messages and export them and delete them
from the box/folder.

I have tried to mark them, but I get only the highlighted one exported.

If I could mark several I could clean up my box'es/folders much
quicker.

I guess I could make a macro to push the Menu-Export-Enter key, but any
other way to do this that I have missed?

The difficulty is that you don't have enough data points to define a unique
function.  That is, for any given value of x, a unique and different value of
a can be calculated, but if you don't define one or the other, you can't
solve the problem.

If you have three points, you can define a unique function.  If you have 4 or
more data points (not mathematically calculated, but observations) you will
need to find the "best fit" with a least squares analysis. I use Lotus to
solve those problems.  It has a straight line best fit regression function,
and all you need to do is use the logs of the numbers to force a power
function solution.

I can read data from the share \\hp200lx\c, but I am unable to write to =
the
share \\hp200lx\c. How do I enable write?

When using it from a SC session, it happens now and then *after*
net-down, when I swap to another session, that the hp200lx freezes. Only =
hard
reset recovers.

Any idea?

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

Hi:

I am a long and loyal HP200LX user - my current system is ~5 years old.
However, due to needs to sync w/Lotus Notes, I have been on the constant hunt
for something as usable as the LX that offers that PC sync.  I reported here
that I had come through a way of getting data sync'ed up using several pieces of
software, but it isn't the best way of doing things.

I was wondering about the Psion - they have been around and been powerful as
long as the HP.  I was wondering if anyone here had used them, and what they
thought?

Thanks,

Mike

I also have been a loyal user (of the 100LX) for six years, but now am a
Psion 5 user and happier the more I use it. Some of the feature I like are
the Connectivity and fat file transfer, backlighting, voice recorder, which
even lets you add voice notes to any of the built in applications. I can
easily run 15-20 programs at once on my Psion and still have memory left. I
just ordered Lotus 123 for DOS to install on it (There is a built-in
spreadsheet on the Psion, though not as powerful as 123). Yes, there is a
good DOS emulator that runs well on the Psion, which is one of the reasons I
am also happy with this Machine. It is as small as the 200LX, has a battery
life as great as the LX, unless you use the backlight all the time.

This machine is very reliable, never crashes, and used CF cards. It employs a
windows like interface and uses a pen as well as keyboard. Specially of
keyboards, the Psion has probably the best keyboard in the industry, much
better than the windows ce units and even better than the LX.

Well, I guess you can probably see that I am really sold on the Psion, but
only after a period of time of comparing the two palmtops. By the way I
forgot to mention that this little Palmtop is a really fast machine, much
faster than the LX.

Any questions? Email me and I'll be glad to chat with you more. Hope this
helps you make a decision.

Sincerely,

Elston Miller

Hi
Anyone know a good source for the mods. to FILER.INI, so a variety of
files/programs can be launched via FILER ?? I see a reference to it in
"Palmtop in your Pocket", but nothing more.
Also, has anyone else had a problem getting TRANSFILE to run under WIN98 ??
The hard drive makes a peculiar noise for a second, then the error message
like  "Transfile is having a problem with Kernel......."((I forget exactly
what)).Tech support don't have an answer.Reinstalling didn't help at
all.Meanwhile, the Connectivity pack works fine on the same machine.

I think I wrote the quoted. I really think this is so. The
WinCE has some noce benefits - if you crave color and like to
buy batteries, for example :-) - seriously, for some people it
is a great tool. For many palmtoppers, mobile or not, it is
not a good tool and makes no sense since it forces you to do
things in a more primitive way - hence the "move up".

Leave the gun battles to Jeff Johns. He is ready, he is armed,
he is licensed, he is trained, and he is deputized!

It is a terrible thing to do to your palmtop! In a gun battle,
you should throw it to the floor (carefully!) then lie on top
of it ro protect it! :-)

The MAIL.OLD is generated automagically by Post/LX when you
specify NOT DELETE (uncheck, Del=0 definitely there :¨ ...)

If one is not being generated either no mail came down, or it
is not set up right.

But you don't use the past as you guide for the present and
the future! :-) This is what, the 5th time the material is
found in the manual? Next time, write to me in person and ask
me where it is in the manual, and then you can post something
like this: "I needed to do such and such. Looked in the manual
and found so-and-so explanation in section xyz! It works!" :-)
This will make you a hero to your fellow palmtoppers! :-) ...

Frankly, I also learn from your questions and the answers you
get - so thank you.

Vic, I prepared a nicely organised reply, but decided not to
post it. I think the pursuit of additional minutes from
battery is simply a ludcrous expenditure of time and energy. I
should not have posted before and just kept my stupid "mouth"
shut. I learned and will keep my stupid (maybe slightly wiser)
"mouth" shut this time, and will not rise to the bait.

Go for it, enjoy it, research it, but sheesh - what a waste of
a good mind like your only to get some small x additional
minutes per charge cycle! Sorry, I won't participate in the
waste of time - I want to enjoy my life.

The list's line limit is frustrating me sometimes :) This is a
repost in two parts now. The first post was rejected.

----------


I have been quite busy and had no time to write about this.
But here is a partial writeup of my quick notes:

Physical: The camera is is very small and realtively ergonomic. It
is  boxy and no fancy stuff on it. Easy for me to operate with
one hand. There is a lanyard anchor point on the right side
and the loop that comes with the camera works fine for me to
help secure that hold on the camera.

There is a group of knobs and controls obviously designed for
right-handers (I am not one of them). On the top the is a
flush button whch serves to to the autofocusing as well as the
trigger. Another round button with a knurled side that sticks
out from the back (convenient) is the mode knob. Two buttons
on the top control various functions, depending on the mode.
On the back of the camera, operable with the thumb, there are
two more buttons that handle the zoom. On the right side, on
the top of the camera is an LCD screen that contain quite a
lot of information. On the back side, top left,  are three
buttons that manage menus, setting and some other
functionality.

The viewer is on the back, about a third of the way from the
left and right next to it is a recessed button that lights the
large viewing color LCD. The color LCD to view pictures is
located on the back occupying a good third of it on the left
side. Under the zoom buttons is a small slider that pops open
the CF compartment lid.

On the bottom there is a threadmount for a tripod and next to
it another slider that locks the battery compartment lid.

The front is really simple: The lens in about in the middle
and covered by a cover except when camera is in picture taking
mode. Above the lens is viewer and next to it is the AF lens.
On the top right (as viewd head on) is the flash lense.

The weight is very small including the lithium battery.

The battery: Lithium 6V Duracell type DL245 and the more
generic nomenclature is 2CR5. Inside the battery compartment
is also a small flat battery to maintain the clock. There is a
NiMH available too.

Battery lasts about a week of heavy picture taking and
viewing, I would say about 200 to 350 pictures. The batteries
are not cheap - anyewhere from $7.50 to $15.00.

Picture Storage: JPEGs. Three main formats: RAW (not JPEG)
which are huge!, large and small. The large is 1078 by 780
pixels. the small is one quarter that, i.e. half of the width
and half of the height. The storage requirements you can find
on www.canon.com - and it varies somewhat depending on the
picture being taken, since JPEG uses the content in
determining how to store. Then there are two more modes: Fine
and Normal. Fine is simply less lossy and stores more details
(and picture is larger).

I use a 80MB CF which lets me take 375+ picture in large and
fine mode. The capacity of that card is huge if I went to the
smallest size, something in the thousands of pictures, I
believe... If I recall right, the normal small pics take about
25-35K and the 80MB can contain about 3000 such pics.

I believe this format is sufficient for showing things on the
Webpage!

My personal choice for more quality was driven by the fact I
like to take pictures of flowers and I want a lot of details
and colors.

Features: I won't go through them all - too many and it is
boring, you can find it on Canon's Webpage anyway. I'll tell
you what I used and found good/bad.

- Macro: Excellent. I could "inside the flower" so to speak -
really close up. It is simply pressing one of the three
buttons on the top left corner of the back of the camera. On
off button.

Part 2 of 2 on Canon Powershot A5 Zoom Experiences:

----------

- Manual vs. Automatic picture mode: I used the P mode, where
I set the size and all the white balance and over- /
underexposure myself. I though the automode was a bit too
simplistic - a bit like the choices Redmond's product
designers pick for Windows.

- Stitch: This mode helps you take these panoramic shots where
you take a bunch of pics moving just a bit each time. Well it
is only useful if you use the clumsy Windows program that
comes on CD so I ignored it.

- PC mode also uses the climsy Windows product. Not
interesting. But there is one item which interested me: I
could take my PowerPoint presentations, grab their images on
my notebook, save the images as JPEGS and then copy them to
the camera. Later, I could connect the video cable to the
camera and a TV screen, and conduct my presentation in that
manner. Good back up.

I found the provided software to be clumsy and
counterintuitive but adequate.

Of course it was simpler and faster for me to use PaintShopPro
to make the JPEGs, then just copy them to the CF which was
plugged into my Notebook (with the CF/PCMCIA adapter).

I needed to name the pics like the camera wants them named,
but that is an easy task.

Viewing: You can view an individual picture or 9 at a time
(thumbnails). The thumbnails are quite small and really are
only good for quick orientation. PLAY displays individual
pictures (on the color LCD, or the TV screen) and MULTI mode
plays the thumbnails on same.

Flash: Uses the red eye eliminator. This means a quick flash
then immediately the real flash and the exposure. The purpose
for the first flash is to cause the irises of people to shut
and that prevents the camera from seeing the retina of the
eyes when it takes the picture. The retinas are red from the
many capillaries that are all over the retina. Instead of
seeing a red spot in people's eyes, you will see a tiny white
dot. This is useful. Flash is strong and good.

Over and undeexposure: I used this setting to bracket
pictures, since I have no speed control. It helped me change
the exposure and experiment with several shots on the same
subject. Quite helpful, but it is a slow process on the
camera. It won't work well taking pictures of race cars! :-)

White Balance: This changes the way the camera sees the
ambient light. You all have seen the yellowish haze when you
take pictures in house lights. That can be eliminated. Mostly
I used the daylight skew.

STORAGE ORGANIZATION: The pics are stored up to fifty in a
folder (subdirectory). Each picture has also a thumbnail, and
I am not sure the thumbnails are terribly useful for me. I
experiemtned in eliminating them from the CF and the camera
did not protest too loudly, just showed an empty frame where a
thumbnail should have been (it knows this by the presence of
the real picture).

An annoying "feature" is that you get a new folder created
when you change the battery.

I did not experiment with moving more than 50 pics into one
folder or shoving them all into one subdirectory.

Well, that's about it. I took hundreds of pictures, and will
slowly get them all on a webpage and post here what the URL
is. I think the quality is excellent (not just the subjects
and the artistry of the photographer :-) ...) and I am happy
with camera.

Now for you technogeeks: The camera is not the latest, hottest
thing! Its CCD is only about 900,000 pixlels, not the 2.1
million or more that's out there. The price of the Canon was
something like 315-400 when I bought it in mid June. The price
of the 2.1Million CCD cameras, Such as Nikon CoolPix and
another (hmmm... which was it?) was on the order of $1000. I
chose the Canon because it had a metallic body, covered the
lense, did most of what the other cameras did and I could put
my own JPEGs on it. And the price was terrific.

Well, that's it. I'll be glad to answer questions if you post
them here. TIA.

Thanks Lynn.  Unfortunately, adding extra data points doesn't seem to help.

I added one and then two points with the same result.  The FIT function
perhaps doesn't work with exponential functions..tho that seems
far-fetched.

I tried the original points Ý1,6¨, Ý3,24¨ and also added Ý0,3¨ and Ý5,96¨.

FIT doesn't return an exponential function (it looks like it just returns
the same matrix points provided as input). No error msg either.

The built in database is not as good as the LX, but a third party product
called POWERBASE is available and it runs on the Psion system, not DOS. I
recently started using it and it is definitely more powerful than the LX.
Powerbase is also
relational. I've now switched all my LX database operations over to Powerbase
and am well satisfied with the program. As I said it is a very powerful
program with unlimited possibilities for use. You can create as many subsets
as you wish for your data. Powerbase is only about $79 and truly a good
investment. I've heard of someone using Paradox, but am not sure how it
performed for them. Why isn't everybody switching to the Psion? Since the
psion is manufactured in England, it has been a well kept secret here in the
states.

I'll write more later, but I've got to run to supper now.

Sounds great.  I've used Paradox with DOS and DB III.
I prefer DOS since I'm also doing grafix.
...and I've got more than a hundred databases.
Is the a convertion pgm?
If I remeber right this Psion is about the same size as
the LX huh?   Tell me more, I just might give it a try.

Has anyone checked the archives on the Psion V. I think I remember
some rather negative reviews late last year or early this year, but
since I wasn't interested, I didn't pay much attention. I seem to
remember comments about people `returning' to the 200 from both
the Palm and the Psion V...

There was, but it doesn't hurt to look at the positive side
of things once in a while.   A lot of people don't like the
PC110 either but I see some good points about it.
Some people don't like the small keys and the short batt life.
I can live with both.

Right enough. I'm not interested in this one, but I just seemed to
recall a discrepancy between what was now being said and what was
said some while back.

There's probably `truth' in both parts...

Part of the perspective we have to keep is that someone who may think
highly of a product may have a different set of priorities. Also, sometimes
in all the excitement about a product, we may overlook some aspects that
we've come to take for granted.

For example, as a group, we place a high premium on durability and it'd be
interesting to hear what kinds of torture tests the Psion has endured.
Proponents may argue (rightly so) that they would never drop their Psion
onto a cement floor or stuff like that..but then they probably don't have
an auto-destruct hinge corner also <g>.

I agree that products always merit re-visiting as things change all the
time (witness the 64mb double-speed LX with rumored backlighting).

Dear Group,
        All this talk about pison makes me scared I might give up the 200LX. I
still have not gotten my Com 2 connection up on my new motherboard and
realize how easily the 200LX is expendable if it cannot be connected. I
will find out the answer but in the mean time it did survive a drop into
the Little Miami River!
        Thanks for a great group. TL

Al or somebody once told us that there are approx 500 (?) members of this

of the globe.

Nope.  Maybe there's an incompatibility between SC and the

using ipx-up/ipx-down ?

Does anyone here own a Nokia 8810 phone and uses it with any other

online run? I ask because it does not go off with WWW/LX and I don't
know if this is a general problem with the 8810 or if there might be
some way to *really* disconnect the IR connection properly.

I installed JKIT following procedure.

1.If your C drive are swapped(32meg), remove the swapping device driver(RDSWAP
.EXE) on the CONFIG.SYS of the F drive and re-start. So the C drive become uns
wapped drive(2meg) and the F drive is 32meg.

2.Install JKIT to the A drive(flash drive). You must operate same as the manua
l. Do you have the installation manual?

3.Copy the following directory and the files from the A drive to the C drive.
\JKIT, \FONT, \WX2, CONFIG.SYS, AUTOEXEC.BAT, WX2.EXE, WX2S.DIC

4.Change the path of the JKIT device driver of the C:\CONFIG.SYS from A: to C:
.

5.Copy a hidden file(JKIT.ID) from A:\JKIT\ to C:\JKIT\. You may change the at
tribute, >attrib -h a:\jkit\jkit.id.

That's all.
If you don't go wrong, please tell me the message of the screen.

Good luck!

I'll keep it up and running for the time being, but if the
demand just isn't there, then there seems little point in
keeping it up. Once again, all suggestions and comments on

Well I guess I'll give you that one .... I think. What got "fixed," I

I think my LX is mystical ;-)

I guess by wanting to "peek" at the headers, while they were on the other
machine(s), I wanted a "live" look at the headers, while connected, that I
wasn't downloading and storing.

Since that's a "no" I'll think about your advice to

Oops, used a communications word in a tech world... I meant "figure out"

Couldn't do that before; may have a chance at it now, BUT I don't intend to
paint myself into that corner again; so .....

It's mentally filed. I could *always* find myself w/ a need to "figure this

This is nothing new under the sun. There exist third party products
for the LX too (database e.g. PC-File) which are relational.

>Powerbase is only about $79

Those for the LX are free.

>Why isn't everybody switching to the Psion?

Perhaps after my LX dies. But for the moment it gives me no advantage over
the LX.

How many DOS programs can it run at a time?  What is the DOS emulation
equivalent to? What is the resolution of the DOS screen?   How much
*useful* freeware is written for this specific machine?  Can it run
Windows 3.0 or 3.1?

Is this as  difficult to use as a typical DOS relational database
program, or does it really take advantage of the Psion interface for ease
of use?  Just wondering.

WWW/LX is very good at email and newsgroups.  The fact that it can also
be used as a web browser is sort of amazing but that doesn't make it a
good one.  The small b/w cga screen is too limiting to ever make it the
browser of choice if a desktop or laptop could be used.

I've been unable to spend a lot of time on the computer in the past few
weeks, so I've been unable to read the list much, but just coming in on
this conversation/idea, I would think that there has been a perfectly
acceptable chat solution available for years; irc.

There are surely IRC clients available in CGI form for use on webpages,
so that brave souls can use the 200 to chat.  Also, those with shell
accounts can use ircii, which is most likely installed.  And of course,
those using bigger computers can pick their favorite irc client.

Picking the network might be the big thing, but all from there is to
register a channel, and go..  Dalnet and Galaxynet both definately have
channel servers to keep channels open.

Dosclip for DOS from Simtel is my favorite, but, even though it's the
most stable one, it does freeze eventually.   Dosclip from SUPER is a
half-step move towards what we need, but it only selects the whole screen
in DOS (though you can specify the elimination of top and/or bottom lines
from the clipping.  It works beautifully in Sysmgr, and pastes to DOS
just fine.   Clipvue requires that the DOS program be able to copy
to/from the clipvue.txt file; not an automated process by any means.

This question has come up for the last 3-4 years I have been a
palmtopper, and no solution so far.  Is this technically impossible to
do?  Do programmers just not see a real need for it?  This is probably
one of the main things on which WINCE has the upper hand (yet).

I do it individually only. You may sort by date via Ctrl+T and then save
via Shift+F10.

If you safe to the same filename the individual messages will be APPENDED
to this file - so you end up with one file per topic.

Hi Jerome & List,

I suggest that you give them all a try and then choose the one that best suites
you. Visit my site and look under "Email & News Reader Links".

If I remember right the old DOS version of Sidekick had a clipper on it.
Has anyone tried it on the LX?

Powerbase is powerful, but very easy to use. There is an ongoing online
tutorial that is a free download. You can also try out Powerbase for FREE as
a download from the net for 30 days with no functions disabled. As I
mentioned before it uses the Psion interface and is very easy to navigate.
What I missed most about the LX database was the ability to create subsets.
Powerbase lets you create an unlimited number of subsets and what equally as
neat is the ability to create as many different views and layouts of your
data as you wish. The interface sports a CARD view and a LIST view very
similar to the LX. There's also a PAGE view which I just started using as a
DATA ENTRY form. Try it, you might just grow to love it as I have.

Any more questions?

I've been using REMKEY at work and find it very useful. But to take it one
step further, I was wondering if there is any software available that would
allow you to bring up your LX screen in a DOS window on the desktop and let
you control your palmtop from there?

TIA,

Hi Domingo

Sunday, August 22, 1999, you wrote to the list:

dd> I think zip.com from SUPER will do what you want.

dd> Domingo

I downloaded a copy of ZIP.COM from S.U.P.E.R. and read the MSWord
file that comes with it. It seems to be a very powerful program which
would do everything I wanted to do and much more but, alas, the
documentation states ZIP won't work using the IR port.

Sadly, I prefer to use the IR port for this operation so I can't use
it but thank you for the information.

For networking I used LXCIC which is part of the zip file. For the
daily use I did test parallel another lxcic, which allowed to initialize
the pcmcia modem which is equivalent to switch off/on. As a result the
modem stops draining the batteries.

Stefan presently puts all together into one lxcic.

I have no IPX running at the moment. The testing I did, before I left
Munich for Boston, was based on NETBEUI with NT 4.0 SP 4. I will do
further testing when I will be back after September 4th.

Helmuth

Indeed.  Is the Psion 5 widely available in the United States?  What is the
"general" benchmark price?  How does it rate in terms of durability and
size via the 200LX?

Psion 5, which is now the Psion 5mx just recently upgraded with a 32 MHz
speed and a 16Meg Ram is available in the states for $549. It is roughly the
size of the LX; I still carry it in my belt loop case and it seems to be a
very durable machine. It has never crashed once on me in over 8 months of
use. The keyboard is really unique, but you would have to see it to believe
it. There's lot of data on the net and literally thousands of third party
software programs available for it.

If you want site locations, please email me and I'll provide you with a list
to check out.

Subject:      LXMNC - The HP200LX Microsoft Network Connectivity Kit
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

After a couple of weeks of alpha and beta testing, it gives me great
pleasure to announce the release of LXMNC (The HP200LX Microsoft
Network Connectivity Kit) for general use.

LXMNC is a collection of information, open source utilities,
proprietary (but freely available) programs, and hand-crafted
configuration files for the HP200LX palmtop that provide connectivity
with Microsoft networks.

The January/February 1997 Palmtop Paper article "Connecting Your
Palmtop to a LAN with the Accton EN2212/2216 Ethernet Card" detailed
how to enable your palmtop as a NetWare client, a Windows 95 client
and a TCP/IP client.  Note that these are all clients, not servers.

More recently, the HP200LX TCP/IP Development Kit has provided TCP/IP
connectivity using standard Internet protocols (including an FTP
server which allows the palmtop to be accessed from any web browser or
FTP client anywhere on the Internet).

However, there has always been a lack of information and development
concerning how to connect the palmtop to "The Dark Side" (better known
as Microsoft networks) so that it can be mapped as a network drive on
the desktop machine (i.e. with the palmtop as a SERVER, not a CLIENT).

LXMNC provides two capabilities that have never previously been available:

1/ A Client-Only Persistent Connection which is impervious to turning
the palmtop on and off.

2/ A Non-Persistent Client/Server Connection which allows the palmtop
to be mapped as a network drive on a Windows 95 or Windows 98 machine.

How many DOS programs can it run at a time?  What is the DOS emulation
equivalent to? What is the resolution of the DOS screen?   How much
*useful* freeware is written for this specific machine?  Can it run
Windows 3.0 or 3.1?

I resemble all of the above, except the deputized part.  I'm
Happy to live in the only county in the entire state of Michigan
that allows that right.

> It is a terrible thing to do to your palmtop! In a gun battle,

I meant to say in my original post, I whip out my LX (draw it),
spit out the info I need (fire off a few rounds), and put it
back away (holster it), as quickly as possible.  Just like the
cowboy's would do in the old days, in a challenge, using their
weapon, as a necessary tool of survival.  To take three or more
seconds to secure your weapon (close the lid), would be in
today's world in a PPC match, valuable points lost, right Jeff?

You do present an interesting situation though, your taking on gun
fire, and your with your wife, and of course you have your LX
with you.  You need to protect your valuables (wife &
LX).....and.....and.....what do you do?

Well seeing that I do nightly back-ups, which get stored onto my
one of my flash cards, and then I take that flash card out in
the morning when I leave the house, so the data therefore gets
stored at a "hot site", my wife would be covered.

I always have my back-up LX (that I'm gonna get upgraded to the
newly available backlit, doublespeed LX, with either the 32, the
64 or the 96 meg drive, with the 64 meg upgrade being O.K. <g>,
and mack is trying to make it better <G>) to fall back on.  Not
to be confused with fall on!

So my important stuff should be safe, and so today she lives!  The
wife, that is <g>.  That god for the back-ups!  Although I
probably am large enough to cover my wife, and my LX. :-)

I have had a similar issue.  I download a jokes newsgroup daily,
and move the messages I like to a saved folder.  Then I like to
send all the jokes (each a separate message) to my work email
address, and I have only been able to do them one at a time.  I
have often meant to post a message asking if there was a way to
mark all the ones I want to send, and send them all at once, but
never asked yet.

A quick-draw competition between an LX and a CE unit might be amusing.
See who would be fastest at drawing their unit, turning it on, finding a
phone number, turning it off, and re-holstering.

The LX'er could probably have the number before the CE'er could even get
the stylus out.  : )

You must have another TSR or driver that is loading after
Buddy and before SysMgr.  Since there is some other program
loaded after Buddy, it cannot unload itself.  It must be the
last TSR loaded before the  200  command that loads SysMgr.

Check your AUTOEXEC.BAT and edit it a bit if you can.  It
should end something like this:

 a:\buddy\buddy.com  a:\buddy\buddy.env
 c:
 cd \_dat
 200

If you are using Software Carousel, then this stuff would be
in the BATch file you have to launch the SysMgr session.

Steve,

It is funny that you mention that.  My wife and I have had
similar contests.  See who could create a spreadsheet, and come
up with an answer to a problem.  She uses a 620, and it is very
funny watching her fumble trying to get the answer.  I can
really truly do circles around her operating her 620.  Plus if
it takes more than a few hours she all done, sorry low battery!

We try to once a week coordinate our schedules using our built
in calendar programs.  Every time I ask her what she has going
on on this particular day or night, it takes her awhile get the
answer.  Then if she has to enter something, that takes even
longer.  I can be off doing something else, while she pokes
around entering the appointment.  For me to enter something it
is seconds, for her minutes.

I have no desire at all to use a 620 or any other CE unit.  I
would not take one if someone gave to me, I have enough junk
laying around, not to be confused with the LX stuff that I have,
never enough of that!

About 60% of the list traffic these days is about replacing the LX.  I
see this as a "One day even my LX will die, so I need to have a
replacement in mind, because I can't live without SOME external brain
for very long" thjing, not a "The LX no longer suits my needs and I'm

about this.  Of course there will be disagreements about pros and cons
and what features are important.

I, for one, would like to see all discussions about alternative palmtops
kept online.  The Psion is my leading candidate too, and would
appreciate any comparisons or info offered.

If you disagree, I would appreciate you emailing me the list of sites
too.

TIA.

PS- I'm mostly read-only on this list because the new and innovative
stuff I do with mine is not of a general interest or all that innovative
(mostly home control through IR), but I've had my 1993 2MB 100LX for
over five years, and have fixed my hinge crack about three times.

Morning all;
Hmmmm The Psion to be a replacement huh?  I don't know
as I've never tried it.  I might like it though, if I did.  I hope
my new super ultra upgraded LX will last me at least five +
more years and by then, surely a viable replacement will arise.
Always the optimest.  In the mean between time I acquired a
PC110 with color etc.  Mainy because of its color, easier comm,
grafix, W95, and its ability to do the LX connectivity pack for BU
while I'm on the road. It shows (gee whiz type) sho and tel pix
just great.  Since it spends most of its time (as a REMF) in a
support role at the hotel room, pwr is not a major concern.
'course my LX is always wit me.

Steve:

It's nothing fancy - I have a write-up I prepared last year or so that
describes it in detail.  I'll dig it up and send it to you off-list
(seems like I've posted it here before, so I'll spare the bandwidth
on the list this time).  Basically it lets you run DOS commands and
a few editors over the serial port, allowing you to operate your palmtop
from a terminal or a PC running terminal emulation software (like the
Hyperterm application provided with most PCs these days).

Subject:      CTTY Command
Content-Type: text

Sorry if this is a duplicate, but I accidentally deleted Steve's e-mail
address (I was going to reply off-list).  Here's my hint about using the
CTTY command to operate your palmtop from a terminal (or PC)...


HP200 File Editing Hint

A common situation arises in my usage of my HP-200LX - I want to
edit a text file or source code that resides on my palmtop while
I'm at my home or office desktop computer.   I used to transfer
the file to the desktop computer, edit it, the copy it back to
the palmtop when done, overwriting the original.

Well, I just re-discovered recently an old DOS command that makes this
process much easier - the CTTY (Change TTY) command.  This command
instructs the command processor to begin accepting commands from, and
sending output to, the specified COM port.  For example, the command
That I issued was:

CTTY COM1

Now on the desktop, you have to open a terminal emulation program (or
alternatively use a real terminal). From a DOS desktop system, you
can use a program like Procomm Plus (PCPLUS). On a Windows system,
you would use the TERMINAL program supplied with the OS. Or on a
Windows 95 or NT system, you have the HyperTerm program that is
supplied with the OS.  Of course, you can run a DOS terminal program
in a DOS box - I regularly run PCPLUS from a DOS box on my NT 4.0
system at work.

At this point, you should be talking to your palmtop's command line
processor, command.com.  The DOS prompt (c:\) should show up, and you
can issue DIR commands, as well as many other ones.  A word of caution:
only certain programs will function well or at all over the serial
port in this manner.  Many graphics-like programs (like 123) access
the computer's video RAM directly and hence won't work over the com
port.  But simple editing can be done with the DOS EDLIN (yuk!!)
program.  I once used this exclusiively for a week while my monitor
was out for servicing, and learned to hate EDLIN.

However, it recently occured to me that my favorite vi-clone editors
ought to work over the serial port - after all, that's how they work
on UNIX-based systems from whence vi came.  After a little experimenting,
I found that the Elvis vi-clone will function in this mode just as
expected.  You have to set the TERM environment variable to ANSI,
then it's set to go.  You can edit your files from the desktop's
full size keyboard, without shuffling a file back and forth.  As
a bonus, you can do all the various DOS file management commands,
such as COPY, RENAME, DEL, MKDIR, CD, etc. from within this mode.
Also file filter techniques work, You can use file re-direction and
piping in conjunction with DOS's SORT and others' UNIX-like filter
programs such as GREP, SED and AWK.  Your own programs that
run on the palmtop in a command-line mode (such as a custom filter)
should also work in this mode, as well.

To exit this mode of operation, issue the following command:

  CTTY CON

From the remote terminal.  Feel free to experiment - the worst that I've
seen happen is that I have to type commands on the palmtop and/or look
to it for output if a program didn't work as expected.  If you're not an
Elvis vi user, I tried the popular vim editor.  It almost worked - I got
the screen display redirected, but not the keyboard commands.  But the
author of vim seemed willing to investigate and incorporate any
modifications in a later release.  I also tried the popular and
small vi-clone Calvin.  It didn't work in this mode, either, but I
haven't yet contacted the author to inquire. Other text editors, if
they're can run over a serial port in other implementations, might well
be coaxed into operating in this mode.  I suggest you contact the author.

As for me, I'll be happily editing away on my palmtop-based ASCII
files, and spending less time transfering them back and forth.

-Chris Lott

I posted something a year or two ago about how I returned
my Psion V.  I had it for a week or two and wasn't happy
with it for a few reasons:

1. The screen was way too reflective, making it difficult to
   read in low-light conditions while my 100LX was far more
   readable.  Part of the problem was the fact that the
   screen was designed to flip open to a certain angle
   instead of a range of angles as on the HP.
2. The database wasn't nearly as good as the LX's.  I was
   only comparing the built-in s/w so I did not look at
   Powerbase.
3. I had an early version of the system which had a fair
   number of bugs.

My 100LX continues to be my faithful companion although I
wish it were faster and had more memory. Yeah, I know those
options are available for the right amount of $$ but they're
very expensive when converted to Canadian dollars.  For that
kind of cash, I might re-consider the Psion V now that many
of the bugs have been cleaned-up and the screen has been
improved.  Actually, I think a Psion V w/o a touch screen
would be best since it would have an easy-to-read LCD
display like the Series III and backlighting.  Pen input is
useful sometimes but I consider a great display screen far
more important.

If I remember things correctly, one drawback of the Psion
that nobody has mentioned in this last round of discussion
is the lack of a numeric keypad.

I agree with one of the prior posts regarding the need for a clear screen
being greater than a touch-sensitive screen.

Can the Psion touch-sensitive panel be easily removed?  Are there some
things (as with CE) which can only be accessed with the stylus?

Larry Zimmerman

PS - I opened my 200lx last week to discover a completely black screen.
Nothing I did would restore it.  I was starting to cry when I took off my
polarized sunglasses...

      Hello all,

I heard the following info at Orbitrade Ltd.'s office at Budapest,
Hungary; they are the local distributor of HP Calculators and Palm-
tops. The name of the person is Zoltan Matok.

After Nov. 1999 the HP 200LX/1000CX will continue to be available,
but not to individuals. If a distributor or a corporate purchaser
orders at least 100 pcs, the order will be served. Practically any
3rd party buyer is welcome, as long as the quantity is > 100pcs.

Can anyone confirm / deny the above info?

Also, do the Socket Communications PCMCIA/CF size LPE Ethernet
cards work in the 200LX? The leaflet I was given says 35/175mA
current load. I know that 175mA is just pushing it a bit, but
these cards are said to be NE2000 compatible, which should help
with driver problems tremendously. Also many would likely prefer
a CF-sized ethernet card with CF-adapter in the 200LX, so that
it can be used with other more recent CF-only devices, too.

Could someone please tell me the differences between EN2212 and
newer EN2216? How is the EN2216 better, are there any drawbacks
known of this newer model compared to the old EN2212?

Thank you in advance, Sincerely: Tamas Feher.

You are right, that's what I'm doing.
But, judging from the number of queries and the type of queries posted
about PE/PIM I get the feeling it is in early stages yet compared to
Agenda.
I was lucky to get hold of the manuals, and must say that the features and
depth of vison in the product impresses me no end.
The only problem I have is the speed of the LX, realistic databases consume
computing power, especially if you use Notes. (Pun intended - this is
Version 0.1 of Lotus Notes)

But, hey, I'm willing to give PE a try!
I'm ignorant, so I ask:
Can I print out a manual for it? (I'm too old to read online doc's!!)
Does it do automatic category assignments?
Can I attach notes & documents to the items?
Does it allow for dependencies between items?
Does it do arithmetic on dates and numeric fields?
Does it allow views with filters?
Can I perform actions automatically on items satisfying given conditions at
entry and at some future date?

If yes, then I'll get on with it. If not, then I suppose it is just a
half-way step towards Agenda.
What I miss in Agenda:
The ability to share *.ag files on a network
The ability to integrate communication as an action,
The ability to do a decent job of contact management (but I am assured that
"Beyond 2.0" will let me do just that, so I'm ordering one soon...
but then if agenda had all these features it would probably be called Notes
v.4 <G>

Cheers,
Paul

Subject:      Fluff PC110

For PC110 owners and wanna be's.
While it's now well-known among PC110ers that the Microdrive
works in the PC110's PCMCIA slot (with an adaptor) but not in
the CF slot, it is nonetheless nice to know what the problem is.
(There is three flash slots on the PC110.)

Bill Frank, the CompactFlash Association's director has said,
the following re IBM using the Microdrive in the PC110.

>Response from IBM's test lab that they confirmed that the
>PC110's CF slot can not provide the current required for the
>microdrive and the PCMCIA slot can.  At the time the PC110
>was designed there was no higher current power mode 1 in
>the CF specification.

So to fix the PC110 for Microdrive in the CF slot, it should be
enough to boost the current to the two VCC pins in the center.
 At some point it'll get done.

Meanwhile the Microdrive works just dandy in the Matchbox PC,
        http://wearables.stanford.edu

Maybe it can be done for the LX knowing what the problem may be.

Semper mobilis,

Hi
Anyone know if this specific card will work with the 200LX
Accton 33.6k PCMCIA Modem + 10BT Ethernet, Part#EN 2218-5
It apparently works with DOS, but is the current draw too high ??

I used SLMR, Silly Little Mail Reader ('Slimer'),  Qmodem
eventually bought it and incorporated it into Qmodem.
I assume it would run on the LX as a DOS program.

with the newer, Windows versions of Quicken.  I was told by someone (I
lost the e-mail) that there had been extensive discussion of this on

Ed et al,
I bought one of these from this individual several months ago.  I'm pleased.
It is the "Yellow Computing" CD from Germany.  The content is not
earthshaking, but the multimedia displays were really interesting.  There is
a "TV" type ad for the 700 and a video of the 200 on the MIR.  It makes me
wonder where these commercials originally aired.  (Never in the USA I'll
bet.)  I guess that is probably the biggest reason to buy one.  Where else
will you get to watch a TV ad for a HP palmtop?
The applications are similar to the ones on S.U.P.E.R. and/or Thaddeus'
wonderful CD Infobase but seem to be a little older of course.  The Infobase
really  has MUCH greater content, but this has a smoother interface.  And
yes Hal, I think I did hear you say that you were working on it for next
year. <G>
Later,
bob
PS - I also bought one of his cables.  It was kinda like the one that came
with Intellisync.  Well made but a little heavier and stiffer than the
original HP cables.

What I remember is that is worked up to version 4 (?)on Quicken for Windows,
but the data structure was changed after that.  Intuit said you are SOL
after that.      =Bob=

If you are looking for these please be advised: J&R has
several hundred 200LX 4MB. They sell at $579 (not exactly
cheap). If you can organize a group you may be able to
negotiate a sharp reduction in price, IMHO.

Call Gabriel Torres, J&R 17 Park Row, NYC, NY 10038 212 238
9020.

I met him when Jun Ikeda and I met in NYC last week and we
talked awhile. Gabriel is a nice guy, and was interested in
the machine and what we do etc. I believe he will be able to
move on the price, but it'll have to be on group purchases
(probably 25 or more.) I am unconnected to this deal in any
beneficial way, other than helping the community grow :-) ...

Good luck.

Help! I really dodn't mean to offend anyone, especially not Andreas!
I was merely reasoning that Agenda might be a more diverse product, but as
the post shows I am merely displaying my ignorance as far as PE/PIM is
concerned.

I would be delighted if Andreas' s/w turns out to be a full-fledged
information management system, but if it wasn't meant to be, then he
wouldn't have reason to be offended now would he? <g>

Whilst on the subject, I hope someone well versed in both packages would
come out and offer us some advice to resolve the issue...

I've now tried all the above, and quite simply I can't get them to work.
They work fine in a DOS window, but not when I try to hot-key into them
inside Filer for example. They simply refuse to pop up!
The DOSCLIP I got (I found two) is the one written by Douglas Boling.

I load maxdos, but that's the only non-standard item in my autoexec.bat
file.

How do you make them work for you?

Yes and no. While Agenda is beyond its very last development step.
There won't ever be any modification in Agenda (e.g. clipboard support,
alarm support, import/export, GUI display for appointment book etc.)
while PE/PIM is still in development and your suggestions might flow
into the product. However, I use it for 3/4 years now and it works well
for me (and for some other people), so I don't think it is "too early".

> I was lucky to get hold of the manuals, and must say that the features and
> depth of vison in the product impresses me no end.

Same here. I love Agenda and at the same time, it is too clumsy for me
to use it in my daily work. Just sheduling an appointment is a big task
in Agenda. That's why I wrote PIM/PE. It is *much* simpler than Agenda
and really focusses on the "daily business" (appointments, tasks,
notes) instead of Agenda, which I rather would call "general knowledge
base management tool".

> Can I print out a manual for it?

There is PIM.DOC and HELP.PIM. Both is plain ASCII (as everything in
PIM/PE) and therefore printable. A really good tutorial is missing yet
(we are working on it). And I guess it would be helpful. As Agenda,
PIM/PE is not on the "easy to use" side, but on the "functionality
side".

> Does it do automatic category assignments?

To a certain extend. If you are in a view that only shows, say private,
appointments and push "Add", an appointment with category "private"
will be created. However, if the views are complex (this and that or
that but not that), PIM cannot resolve it. As opposed to Agenda, only
AND between categories is supported for automatic assignment.

> Can I attach notes & documents to the items?

You can freely mix it. In that respect, PIM/PE is much more powerful
than Agenda.

> Does it allow for dependencies between items?

Items may refer to parent items (and children) and you can move from
one to the others - if this is what you mean.

> Does it do arithmetic on dates and numeric fields?

No. (What do you use that for? I use the built-in calculator for such
stuff). Or do you mean: you say goto, then you say +37 and it places
you to the current day + 37 days. That's supported.

> Does it allow views with filters?

Yes. You can combine filters based on categories with predefined
"views" (appointments only, tasks only, overdue tasks only, etc., etc.)
and assign such combined views to a key so that one key stroke leads to
that view.

> Can I perform actions automatically on items satisfying given conditions at
> entry and at some future date?

Apart from alarms, no. If you really need that kind of sophistication,
you might want to stick with Agenda. If you need some tool that mostly
helps you manage your personal appointments, tasks and notes, you might
want to try PIM/PE.

Not at all! I understood your message as a question list trying to find

Definitely - and Agenda is a nice piece of software. Many are unhappy that
there are no upgrades and that lotus does not sell the rights on this
program.

That's one of the reason why I dumped it. If you have action items in your
agenda file you'll grow long beards watching the HP200LX ;-)

> But, hey, I'm willing to give PE a try!
> I'm ignorant, so I ask:

I can't answer all your questions. PIM/PE includes in depth Help and Doc files. They are
pure ASCII - make a hardcopy and read them 17 times. Then you should have a
good idea about the package.

Yes.

No.

Yes.

Yes.

No - don't think so.

Yes - customizable.

> Can I perform actions automatically on items satisfying given conditions at

No - you can create queries, filters and do search and replace for text
strings.

> What I miss in Agenda:

PIM/PE is ASCII text based.

Don't understand what you mean there.

> The ability to do a decent job of contact managemen

This very much depends on individual habbits.


Some mor things to consider :

Agenda is > 1.2 meg and slow. Good printing and categorisation. No GUI.
PIM/PE is ~ 200 kB and fast. Limited printing within the package. Has to be
done through a word processor. GUI
Learning curve is equivalent for both.

HPHAND, and that the group of Quicken users there had arrived at a
recommended solution/procedure.  Alas, I can't find that individual
to ask for more information.  Help!"

Chris,
I wrote the message below back in March.    I believe it will answer your
questions.
If not let me know.  I have used Pocket Quicken Connect with Quicken 5, 6 ...
Quicken 98 and 99.

"Pocket Quicken is one of the great features I love about the 200LX.    I hate
to
enter individual transactions to the desktop so the 200LX really fits the bill.
At first I used the connectivity pack to upload the data to the desktop but
found it tiring.      Then Pocket Quicken Connect came along and I was set.
It will not synchronize the two computers - but I did not want to in the first
place.    The 200LX holds the information until I upload it to the desktop.
Connect does send
back a transaction called a sync balance adjustment so  when you are finished
the balances on the two machines are the same.      Also I learned the hard way
that the data file on the 200LX should be trimmed regularly because it's size
can only grow (or at least I can't  figure how to make it smaller).     If you
trim it enters a balance forward figure which does not get sent to the desktop.
Also when you trim (from the account view, file, trim) you should clear the keep
uncleared transactions - if you balance on your desktop.       When I balance on
the desktop Connect does NOT send that information back to the 200LX so you
could have a very large data file with many uncleared transactions - again from
experience.

Not sure why Intuit is not selling it but you could try CompUSA.     They were
able to locate copy of a program that I was unable to obtain elsewhere"

Is it just me, or does $20 for "shipping and handling" for a 1 lb. keyboard
seem just a tad outrageous?

Yes, probably, but maybe it is being shipped from outside the U.S. and =
that
would account for the abnormally high shipping charges.

A few months ago I used REMKEY and had a problem with it but couldn't
remember what the problem was. A couple of days ago I started using it
again, and was having no problems. Then yesterday while I had REMKEY
active on my desktop and was actually typing on the LX, an alarm went
off on the LX. The alarm went off for quite a while, and then my LX
froze up. I remembered then why I had stopped using it before! <g>

Has anyone else experienced this using REMKEY? And do you know if there
is a work-around for it?

I agree that this can be confusing sometimes.  When I use
LapLink or Zip or Filer with ACElink,  I set the COM1 baud rate
to 115200 and it works fine.  I know that I am not getting
11520 characters per second transfer rate, but it goes as fast
at it can.

But when I use acCIS and WWW/LX Plus, I set the COM1 baud rate
to only 19200 when using the external modem.  If I turn it up
faster, there can be lots of errors and lost data.

Why is this?  The built-in COM1 serial port does not use a
buffered UART, so that it cannot store characters coming it
and hand several at a time to the software.  The applications
I mentioned above that I run at 115200 bps are optimized to
run at those much higher data rates and don't have much work
to do in between characters and so they can work much faster.
Programs like acCIS and WWW/LX Plus, have a great deal more
work to do in between characters and so that cannot sustain
such a high data rate without getting behind and losing
stuff.

The vast majority of PCMCIA modems use a buffered UART to
create the COM2 serial port on the palmtop.  Since this can
store and pass along multiple characters to the software, it
is able to sustain a higher data rate than the HP'sbuilt in
serial port.  I set my port speed to 38400 with acCIS and
WWW/LX Plus when using the PCMCIA modem.

I have a double speed 200LX and use the 19200 (COM1) and 38400
(COM2) baud rates.  I have heard of some people using higher
speeds, but I have not experimented with them myself - I tend
to play it safe.  I believe it is recommend to use 9600 (COM1)
and 19200 (COM1) as the max baud settings for a single speed
palmtop.

I have noticed that most of my connections with my 56K modem
on my desktop are only at 24000 to 33000 bps anyway, the 38400
port speed I am using on COM2 should be plenty fast enough.

I currently have a Socket Comminations LP+E card. The new card driver
LXCIC and LXEN2216 Ethernet driver allows the card to work correctly.
I could not get it to work with the Acton EN2216 drivers. I have found
a couple of other card drivers that will work but not reliably.

Yes it does cost more (2 x Acton) but I enjoy the low power draw for the
card,
it is definitely battery friendly. Besides it is the only card the has
proven
reliable to install on laptops using either Windows CE or Windows 95/98.

This works for me. I normally keep the "Unload Buddy" box
unchecked, but if I start up BUDDY.EXM, go to the Other screen,
check the Unload Buddy box and then Quit Buddy, the next time I
use Menu-Right Shift-DEL to terminate System Manager, I get a
"Buddy Exit" message. I assume you are using Buddy to terminate
System Manager or doing it manually? (But it should not
matter.)

My wish list: I define categories, and with them the keywords that trigger
an item to be automatically assigned to it, no matter what view I'm in.

What you describe I would label a collapsible outline function. What I'm
after is dependencies, ie. item A has to be completed before item B. Useful
for doing things in the right order. (Yes, some of us need to be reminded!)

I mean the ability to have a property like time or money of an item
countable. I use that for totalling timesheets for customer billings, for
expense accounts, for total travel times, for project costs and time, etc
etc. Yes, I can do all those things in 1-2-3, but if you have wrestled with
@datevalue for a few years, you're ready to move on!

Why? I reckon' you're 1/2 way there! For example - you often need to assign
a duration to a task, and at some date either mark it as "I goofed on that
one!" or give yourself some extra time.
Also, I am (haven't you guessed!) trying to describe some key Lotus Notes
concepts. Actions would include mailing an item to a recipient after a
certain time if it remained unanswered, etc.

I also (for the same reason) asked about the ability to share databases
(replication) and integrate mail. That would mean that I could manage my
e-mail from within PIM/PE and follow up on items, share views with
co-workers by mailing them the filtered view, etc.

None of the above is especially hard to do if you accept some limitations
and asume a certain amount of intelligence on the part of the user. Most
bloat is IMHO due to user interface and "safety net" code.

Yes, but is file/record locking implemented, and can you update the
diffeneces in index files and supplement the missing datafiles from one
user to another over a network or via mail? If you could do those things,
then you would have moved BEYOND Agenda and far into Lotus Notes land.
Imagine, ASCII compatible groupware on a palmtop!!

I mean the ability to send mail from within PIM/PE. Se post to Andreas G on
same topic.

Dead-board 95's need not apply as I'm pretty sure what I have is a

I installed PGP 2.6.2 on my 200LX.  When I try to run it I get "Cannot

I'm not sure, but I don't think this is a memory problem.  I've tried
MaxDos to no avail.  In an earlier post someone mentioned that 2.6 was
the latest version that would work on the LX. I'm wondering if I'm
missing a file.  I have the following files in my A:\PGP26 directory:
KEYS.ASC, PGP.EXE, PGP.HLP, PGP262I.ASC.

My AUTOEXEC.BAT includes the following lines:
set PGPPATH=A:\PGP26
set PATH=A:\PGP26;%PATH%

I'd appreciate any help.

Doctor Ginsberg, is PGP installed on your c: drive or your a: drive =
(flash
card)? If it's on c: then change the above listed items to reflect this. =
If
it's on the flash card, let us know and we'll walk you through it. I use
v2.6.2 on my 200LX.

No.  System macros in SysMgr are simple recordings of
keystrokes.  They cannot pause or make any kind of decisions
or loop around.

You can have one macro call another, though.  So, if A calls B
and then B calls A, I suppose that could be an infinite loop.

Are you using an external modem or a PCMCIA modem?  If a slot
modem, then there is nothing you can do except prevent the
power off.

But with an external modem, I am assuming the trouble comes
from this because the palmtop powering off causes the modem to
see the DTR go down and therefore the modem drops the phone
connection.  You can send an AT string to the modem to have it
ignore (force on all the time) the DTR and therefore the modem
should not drop the phone line when the palmtop is turned off.
 So, if you do then just turn it back on again.

The new feature of this program now is that it runs the
processor backwards so that it actually generates energy
instead of consuming it.  Therefore, you set this program to
run each night and it will recharge the batteries without
having to plug into the AC adapter. <grin>

Looks like someone on ebay has a supply of automap for dos. I've seen at
least two separate auctions by this person selling this item. It says 'dos
2.2 or higher' so I'm assuming it's the same one that'll work on the LX.

Ashwin,
How can I help you? What else is running in your palmtop? Is your ipex.com within the directory that is within the PATH?
What I did was following the doc that comes with it, nothing special.

al chin,
do you want to try the CPack I hv? or try my Win98? I'd installed it serveral times cause I hv to re-install win98. No problem found.
Let me know if you want a copy of my CPack.

I do not need this as I do not want anybody mess around with my appointments
and tasks. My secretary recieves a regular updat of my file through our
intranet and everybody may have a look at it. I remain the only one in
command of additions and alterations :-)

Andreas might answer however.

Not to my knowledge but I may be wrong. I use PE to edit my messages with
POST/LX and acCIS.

I'm using POST/LX for e-mail and PE for editing mails. From within PE
you can do what you want to do with some keystrokes. Maybe a customized macro will
improve that task.

PE uses a file locking mechansim. But that one only works if everybody
is using PE. You can still edit the file with a different editor though
as it won't notice the PE lock.

Via email it works as described in the other message. In principle, it
could work over a network too (users could share a PIM directory on the
same drive. But I seriously wonder how useful "groupware" on a mobile
computer such as the palmtop is. How many people work on your palmtop?

Ah, I see. This is something I am thinking about. That might be useful

That's an illusion. It would be 1/2 way to death. If the functionality
of Agenda would be copied, it would get at least as sluggish and big as
Agenda and if would not be possible to use it with anything else (as
Agenda is now), so you can use Agenda directly. Note that Agenda is a
pre-Windows product. It is not as big because it is bloated but because
it is a piece of highly sophisticated software. PIM/PE tries to
implement those parts of Agenda that are most often used while keeping
the whole thing small enough so that it can work with other programs
loaded at the same time and fixing some disadvantages of Agenda on the
palmtop (alarms, GUI appointment view, multiple files etc.)

Uff! I would hate that. I want to be reminded that I have to send an
email to somebody, but under *no* cercumstances I want to do the
computer do this for me automatically. I just fancy trying to explain
the board of directors that I did not want to push them but that I had
set the date wrongly on my computer and that it therefore automatically
sent that inappropriate and cryptic message. <G>

Note the "P" in PIM. It is not meant to be a groupware tool.

With email it integrates well (at least with POST/LX). Actually, I
right now answer this email using PE which *is* the central part of
PIM/PE. If your email includes a task for me, I just copy and paste it
into the file I want it in (just did that a minute ago with your
suggestion of dependent tasks). Also if your email includes contact
information in vCard format or appointments/events/tasks in vCalendar
format, I can convert them into PIM/PE items with a few keystrokes (3
to be accurate).


> That would mean that I could manage my

I do that with POST/PIM/PE.

If your co-worker uses PIM/PE, you can just copy and paste a task and
send it:

+( 26-AUG-1999 11:15
+a M=FCntener: Communication Center
+@ SA 2312
+) 12:15

Copied and pasted that from my main appointment file (remember that it
is all ASCII). If your co-worker uses a mailer that supports vCalendar,
PIM/PE supports converting it into vCalendar:

There was no agenda the last time. How was it the last time:

It is a *nonfromal* meeting, where we start with coffee in the afternoon =
and
then we enjoyed talking one to each other. Some of us demonstrated the
latest news, like networking, WINCE palmtops, parallel port use, PIM/PE
etc.

So looking forward to meet you there.

Hello friends,

I recently took advantage of the Borland URL posted to the
list and downloaded Turbo Pascal 5.5.  I've used it on my
2X 200LX to compile a fairly simple program I wrote some
time ago, and it seems to run fine.

I am considering trying to write some routines for using
the serial port to acquire data.  Can anyone recommend a
reference book that would be helpful for me?  I have the
Turbo Pascal v3 manual, but would like something with more
detail on serial port functions.

Thanks for any suggestions!

I think I solved the problem.  I was tinkering with my autoexec.bat file
and when some changes didn't have any affect, I remembered how DOS looks
at the drives on startup.  I had PGP on my A: drive, but I was making
changes to the autoexec.bat on my C: drive.  After making the
appropriate changes to the autoexec.bat on the A: drive and rebooting, I
was able to get PGP to run.  I also had to copy the config.txt file to
the HPLX as well to prevent a configuration error.  Thanks anyways.

I don't think so.  I think that card will draw too much power
to work in the 100LX.  Check the specs, though.  The 100LX can
supply no more than 150 ma to a card in the PCMCIA slot.

Even if it can be powered by the palmtop, the issue of drivers
and all of that stuff will come up.  So far, I have only heard
of success with a NIC made by Accton.

I don't know for sure, but I suspect the current draw will be
too high.  Many 33.6 modems by themselves draw too much
current.  Some are low power enough to work in the 150 ma
limit of the 100/200LX.  And there are even fewer Ethernet
cards that are low power enough to work in the palmtop.
Accton model 2216 is a NIC only and works in the palmtop.

Try putting in new AA batteries and then press the Ctrl, Shift
key on the left side and On all at the same time.  This is a
hard reset and will wake it up if there is nothing wrong with
it.  If this doesn't work, then it is probably bad.

640x200, black and white, PCX format, and invert it if you create it on
the desktop, so it'll look normal as a topcard.

Hi,

The result of searching a string in all *.PIM files
is reported in a temp file with the belonging filenames
and line numbers.

Although look at it in the docs but not found, but
is it possible to jump to the file/line nr by a special
command directly or something like that ?

This is easy in the vi editor.  You can even open a file at a
specified line number:

vi +nnn filename.txt

Or, if you already have the file open,

:nnn

Sorry, but I don't use PE enough to know it's line number jumping
commands.

At my place of work I noticed that several (in fact most) top management
had 200LXes. They were all sitting on their desktops whilst their newer CE
machines, PalmPilots and miniature Windows machines were being put to good
use. So in a work environment, the ability to share info is a good thing,
in fact so desirable that LX'es are being put out to pasture prematurely
because their'e perceived as not being able to exchange data!

Palms and CE machines share via their easy linking to Outlook. We could go
one better by both linking to Outlook (albeit not as elegantly as the CE
software) and share our native PIM/PE files amongst ourselves.

Also, the LX can hook up to a network, but lack any useful application that
can take advantage of this fact. We have a nice task switcking environment
in the EXM apps, and it would be a pitty if forward looking developers did
not exploit this new opportunity. In fact the new drivers allow us to log
on to the network, unplug, take our LX to a meeting, and continue where we
left of! This is one better than Win98!

So you see, my vision on behalf of your software is that it slowly evolves
into a usefull suite of applications to increase the usefulness of the LX
in an office environment.

I don't consider myself a lone wolf with my LX, but rather a missionary
showing my co-workers how to be more productive by exploiting soundly
engineered software and hardware solutions.

Be a realist. Change the world!

Cheers,
Paul.

I create a category called "School", with synonyms "education" and

The I type an item like:
Remember School tomorow.

It gets assigned to the "School" category without more ado on my part.

No, Andreas, I don't care for my life to be spread amongst too many apps.
If I enter the todo items and the customers details and the meetings and
the minutes from the meeting in PE/PIM, why not also track the expenditures
and the time taken??? It seems the logical thing to do, to have a small
extra feature in an already comprehensive app, rather than using a diferent
one?

Paul:
I disagree. Agenda version 2.0 tries to be the "end-all" of PIMS. It is the
embodiment of Mitch Kapors vision of making a new "killer app" that was to
be to unstructured data what 1-2-3 was to number crunching.
That's also its major failing. I am sure you could add highly functional
core capabilities to PE/PIM without trying to solve everything.
The mental picture I have is that of incorporating core functionality in
small modules without uneccessary "features" and "user friendly"
interfaces.

Paul:
As I understand it, PIM/PE is a first step towards "Agenda on the LX", but
lacks some core Agenda functionality that would make Agenda superfluous.
Also, ten years have passed since Agenda was released, and we have now have
a chance of copying some of the better ideas of Lotus Notes.
This would make PIM/PE not only a "poor mans Agenda" but a highly desirable
product with unique functionality. (After all, you cannot use Notes on any
palmtop at present, no matter how battery-hungry.)

Thats my point exactly. You're more than half-way there!
And using ASCII is a lesson learned from the unix/web community, and offers
greater scope for development than proprietary file formats ala Agenda.

Also, create it at 640x240 so that it looks normal on the PC (the
right aspect, or width/height ratio), then shrink it to 640x200,
reduce colors to two, then make it a negative.

Jeff,

Are you dialing into a "shell" account and using lynx from there or are you
running lynx software on the palmtop? ÝI've seen lynx for DOS in the past¨

My ISP let me have a shell account and I can use Pine on my Win98 machine
because I have a PPP dial-up set up.

Is there a program out there that'll do a PPP dial-up for me and then let me
have a terminal window?  I'd like to use Pine w/ the account I'm 'talking'
about, and not have to rely on a laptop to do it!

<< there may be some SIMPLE setting in WWW and Post/LX that'll let me do
this as I see it get a PPP link before starting HV or Post/LX ..... "gentle
list folk" feel free to chastise me for not reading deeper into the manual
on this one ;-)   >>

tia!

That's easy!  First of all, to answer your specific question, both the
WWW/LX package and the LXTCP package have ways of establishing a PPP
connection, the allowing you to to fire up a telnet session to your
shell account.  I did this just yesterday afternoon using LXTCP and
my cellphone from the soccer field while my son was practicing!
(I prefer "elm" - I hear "pine" stands for "Pine Is Not Elm").

Note also that you may well be able to simply use DATACOMM (or some
other favorite terminal emulation software) and just dial up your ISP
and establish a simple terminal-style connection to your shell account.
I can still do this with my ISP, and I believe many of them still support
this mode of operation.

<ASIDE> I flabbergasted an introductory UNIX class I taught a couple of
years ago by demnstrating to them how I could surf the web, read news and
e-mail, all from a $10 surplus terminal and a modem! </ASIDE>

You can use Rod Whitby's awsome LXTelnet along with the same dialer from =
his
web site (http://lxtcp.hplx.net) to do everything you request. LXTelnet =

to your account. Telnet/LX is a functional telnet client, but isn't quite =
as
mature as LXTelnet and in order to move files back and forth you'll have =
to
leave the Telnet/LX program and use FTP/LX.

A more simple solution may be to check and see if you even need a PPP =
telnet
client at all. Many ISP's (mine included) allow you to dial directly into
the shell using the same number as you normally dial to form a PPP
connection. In the case of my ISP, if I want to form a PPP connection I =
use
a login name of jeffj.ppp if I just want to dial into the shell using the
built in DataComm software I just dial the same number and when presented
with the login: prompt I just eneter jeffj and the my password when =
prompted
to do so  and then I am directly on the shell. You may want to try
BananaCom which is available on S.U.P.E.R. . It's a nice little terminal
program. Even though I can dial directly into the shell I usually still =
use
LXTelnet because it is so powerful. It's nice to have two or three
simultaneous connections to different places all at the same time and
LXTelnet will allow you to do just that.

Good luck!

The Dosclip from SUPER is by Hiroyuki Sekiya.  It's a TSR, and it allows
you to paste to DOS whatever you copied or cut from Sysmgr using the
usual keys.  It does the same from Dos to Sysmgr, except you can only
select the whole screen, with some modifications from the command line
before you load it.  I know of no special requirement for running it.

Dosclip from Simtel (the Douglas Boling one) is problematic.  To remove
from memory you have to reboot, and it does not interact with Sysmgr *at
all*.   I would not be surprised if it is giving you trouble.

Clipvue is just an .exm with no special requirements that I know of.  It
can cut and paste to/from Dos via a text file.  The problem is finding an
*easy* way to get the DOS program to cut and paste to/from that text
file.  Some people here find it quite sufficient with SC, but I find it
very annoying (I don't use SC).  I know I could use EXKEY to trick the
DOS program into submission, but I already have too many TSR's running.

Subject:      Re: Modem Speeds (Useful & Otherwise)
Comments: To: stanleyd@CARROLL.COM

Using a single speed 4Mb palmtop and an external modem, I normally connect
using LXTCP at 19200, with no problems. I use this here in Israel, and recently in Australia, and Thailand. Only once in Thailand I had to reduce
speed to 9600 because of connection problems. So as far as the palmtop side
of things is concerned, the speed of connection IS dependant mainly on the
software being used to connect, but it is also dependant on the ISP and the
quality of the telephone connection.

Final conclusion: what works for you where you currently are is the right
speed. The previous mail in this thread is a good guideline, but it is worth
experimenting.

From HELP.PIM:

+. How to search all PIM files for a certain text?

A very handy utility is "grep". It quickly searches through
files. I recommend xgrep for the palmtop. You can find it, for
example, at
ftp://sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch/mirror/simtelnet/msdos/txtutl/xgrep103.zip

I renamed xgrep.com to grep.com and use the following entry in
the ÝFilter¨ section of PE.CFG:

Grep &PIM = grep -in "@@" c:\pim\data\*.* >SCRATCH

This command (you can activate it using Ctrl-X R P) asks for a
string, then searches all files in the directory
c:\pim\data\*.* for the string and creates a list that is saved
in the file SCRATCH. That file is automatically loaded upon
return to PE.

I then can go from one place to the next by repeatedly
pressing Ctrl-X G. Actually, I have two macros in PE.MAC,
assigned to Alt-G (for grep) and Alt-N (for next):

;Alt-G Grep all PIM files
#2200=#2d18#1372#1970
;Alt-N Go to next occurrence
#3100=#2d18#2267

PE does not parse the text and tries to understand the semantics as
Agenda does. This is one of the really great features of Agenda - and I
believe it makes up at least half of its code size.

Because the overlap is almost zero, so why have a huge, monolithic
program that combines two things that have almost nothing in common? I
prefer to have them spearated (and one keystroke away). A possibility
to make TimeTracker use the data in PIM/PE would be an interesting
option though, I believe.

You must be joking when saying "small extra feature"! I might be wrong,
but I think TimeTracker is bigger than PIM.

I hope it was understandable this time. <G>

I don't want to copy Agenda. If you want Agenda, use Agenda. It is not
the intention behind PIM/PE to rewrite that application.

The LXEN2216 packet driver is available, and is reported to
work well with at least two other non-Accton Ethernet cards
that work in the HP200LX.  The main thing is that it must be
NE2000 compatible (and most PCMCIA ethernet cards are).

So as long as the power restrictions are met, there's a good
chance that our open source packet drivers will work with it.

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

I have uploaded version 3.2 of the Palmtop News Reader to my Software
Library (http://rwhitby.hplx.net/download.html).  Please see
http://pnr.hplx.net for more details on PNR.  All file formats,
folders and configuration settings (apart from the "nomailsort" and
"nonewssort" options detailed below) are unchanged.

The DOS executables (PNR.EXE and PNRTI.EXE) are now compiled in large
mode, which effectively removes the memory limits that were present in
version 3.1 and earlier.  The capacity of the DOS version of PNR is
now practically limited by the amount of free disk space to store the
messages (unless you've got *lots* of *really* small messages).  Note
that the System Manager compatible PNR.EXM still has the limits
present in version 3.1 (the memory limit is due to the 64k data limit
imposed on EXM programs), so if you wish to use PNR.EXM, you should
limit the number of articles per folder to about 400 (you can still
have *lots* of folders with 400 articles each).

PNRTI now "properly" threads mail and news instead of sorting
alphabetically.  This means that the order in which the articles were
received is retained, except that articles with the same subject
(excluding a single "Re: " prefix) are grouped together.  The
nomailsort and nonewssort configuration options have been renamed to
nomailthread and nonewsthread, and will turn off the default threading
behaviour.  Note that the threading is only based on the subject line,
and does not take the References header into account.

Coming soon is a new version of LXTCP which will combine LXPOP, LXSMTP
and LXNNTP into a single LXMTA (HP200LX Message Transfer Agent) which
handles POP, SMTP & NNTP in a single executable which is smaller in
disk space that two or three executables, each containing an embedded
TCP/IP stack.  It will also support changing the order in which things
are done (in case your ISP requires you to access your POP mailbox
before outgoing messages are accepted).  Look out for a beta testing
announcement next week sometime if you are interested.

What are the latest news on HP stopping the production of the 200LX?.
Our organisation uses the palmtops as instrument interfaces. A production stop would require some action.

As I learned, Switzerland is using the same new telephone
system as Germany: You select the provider you want to use by
predialing its 5-digit number code.

That is, my telephone least cost router LXTEL also works for
Switzerland if someone volunteers to edit the database for
Switzerland. For german users I've set up a mailing list.

Those who have subscribed to the LXTEL mailing list receive
an updated database about every two weeks for free. Please
contact me if you want to be put on the german mailing list.

The latest version and database of LXTEL is on my homepage:

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement "end cap" for my

Thanks in advance for any help.

I was going to suggest the excellent Wotsit at www.wotsit.org ...but I checked
it out first and the oldest spec sheet they have for Word .DOC file formats is
ver. 6.0 (which I imagine is completely different than 5.5).

Hi Tony
I want to reply better answer to you, so I want to know what you want, exactly
.
Why do you want to swap?
Are there any problems JKIT on A: drive ?
Do you want to use Japanese without A: drive?
Which drive configration do you want?
        1. C:32MB        F:3.5MB(JKIT)
        2..C:32MB(JKIT)  F:3.5MB
        3. C:3.5MB(JKIT) F:32MB    $B!c!¨ (B-  my configration.

I use JKIT on T2T 64MB 200LX with #3 configration.

A: 160MB Flash ATA drive  <--  dictionaries and data.
C: 3.5MB RAM drive (JKIT) free area 861KB
F:  64MB RAM drive  <--  almost application software hire

I use this configration over 8 months.
But I've never met any troubles concerning JKIT.
And I think #1 and #2 configrations are difficult to install.
I've tried #2 configration several times, but I could not.
Also I've never heard anyone succeed to install these configration in Japan.

Another question.
Why do you want to use JKIT?
For your business or study?

Sorry. Many questons.

Today I received T2T 94MB 200LX (upgrade from 64MB to 94MB)!!

Hi Cliff.

I have tried many programs, but always come back to Personal Ancestral
File (PAF) when using DOS. I believe it's the best all-round DOS
software for the job. It's rock-solid and cheap, and runs perfectly on
the 200LX. Last I heard it's $30 from any LDS (Mormon) Family History
Centre, normally located in one of their churches.
Don't be put off by the fact that it was developed by Mormons - these
guys are really into it and know what they are doing. There are no
religious overtones involved, and the few extra fields they use for
their own religious purposes can be easily switched off for your use if
you wish.

And by the way, it's geneAlogy, pronounced like gene-allergy, which is what
it quickly becomes!! Welcome aboard.

Cheers, Roger

The older version, 2.x, doesn't look nearly as pretty as the 3.0 version,
but the 3.0 version claims to need at least a 286.  Fortunately, this is
not correct, and you can run PAF 3.0 on the palmtop just fine.  Don't
believe the box. <g>

It can be ordered online for $19.30 at
http://www.deseretbook.com/~DBP36675~ .

_exactly_ this!

I use www/lx for _all_ my email and newss group reading. only for web
surfing I use the Netscape on my desktop PC, because HV don't do all
the new internet standards.
With a 14.4 pcmcia modem www/lx works wuite fast.

For example, the idle voltage of pins 3 and 5 is around 6 V.
I used it for my "LED lights" I made a few months ago.
pin 5 is the ground pin and pin 3 is the send data pin (TxD).

For what do you need this information?

Try Brothers Keeper by John Steed... (not the one from the Avengers <G>)
It has DOS and Windows versions and works pretty well. I believe palmtop

It can also be ordered for $15 (don't know about shipping) from

http://www.familysearch.com/OtherResources/Paf_3.0.asp

directly. They also have a free download of Paf 4.0 for windows, and a
free upgrade to Paf 3.01M from previous versions (which also seems to
work if you have 4.0 installed).

Note that LXTELNET is part of the beta version of LXTCP
available in the beta testing section of my web site.  Also
note that all the things that make it "awesome" were done by
other folks at NCSA well before I got my hands on the source
code.  I just made it a bit more useable for our palmtop.

And not only LXTELNET alond with the other LXTCP programs, also the =
latest
network package became very useable for my palmtop.

I hope Rod will put his hands on the DOS RAS client to make it complete.

All my respect!

That is great news, Rod.   Thanks to you and the others who
have helped you made this happen.  I just wish I had more time

Hi All,

I just came across an article about a new Organic Light-Emitting Diode
(OLED) technology for computer screens. Someone here who knows a little
bit about screen technology may want to check this out to see if it's a
possible way to get back lighting for the HP200LX.

You can find it on the web at:

Also, are there standard file formats?

Are there programs that can use DOS that are compatible with W95 programs?

PAF 4.0 (Win95/98/NT) data files are the same format as PAF 3.0 for DOS.
This makes things quite simple. I have my data on a CF card. I run PAF 3
on my LX at the library, or wherever. When I get home, I can pop the card
in my CF reader on my desktop and access the same database with PAF4.

You did not offend me in any way. I just had the impression there was a
very basic misunderstanding about the purpose of PIM/PE and tried to be
VERY clear to break our discussion loop. PIM/PE is *not* something to
replace Agenda. It is a program to handle appointments, tasks and notes
of a single person on a palmtop. If you need the functionality of
Agenda, you need Agenda and not PIM/PE. I also have Agenda on my
palmtop. I use PIM/PE for my daily stuff and Agenda for some more
sophisticated stuff.

My old LX200 has died...
Fortunately I have a backup of my data files on my PC. One of them (an

How can I export this file to CSV? Adbio and gdbio have no facility for
entering the password, I don't have another LX200.

Does anyone know what algorithm is used for passwords on the LX200?

Hi Tony

C drive do I put the swap driver back or not?

You shouldn't put back the swap driver. Perhaps if you put back the swap drive
r, your 200LX will freeze.

By the way, which JKIT version do you have? 1.0 or 1.1?
If you have ver.1.0, you have to get a patch software from http://www.osw.co.j
p/products/mobile/200lxju.htm. Some bugs are fixed.

>I will be coming back to work in Tokyo on September 15.
Good!!
In Japan, many 200LX users join the FHPPC of @Nifty. Similar to the HPHAND of
Compuserve. Recentry the FHPPC made CD named "All that FHPPC".
There are many softwares, data, know-hows in this CD.
But almost texts are written in Japanese.
You can buy it at Akihabara soon!!

I know the algorithm, but I think there are easier ways to do what you
want. The easiest would be to e-mail the file and the password to
someone who still has a 200LX (the LX200 is a telescope). They could
unencrypt your file and send it back to you, then you could use
GDBDUMP to get it to a CSV file. If you e-mail me the file, I can do
it.

If you have the connectivity pack software, or if you could have it on
loan, you could access your file on your desktop with your password, and
export it.
Or am I missing something?

Dear List,

On a UK-spec 200LX, the pound sign can be typed by doing
fn+Ýphone¨. When I have software carousel v7.00 loaded,
this activates the phone app in work area one, ignoring the
function key press. Anyone have a workaround, apart from
Alt+Menu+156 combo?

Thanks

This is because while SysMgr has control, it uses a different
keyboard interrupt than the DOS standard.  So, those popup
TSR's are busy watching the wrong interrupt for their hot key.
 So they never pop up.

YES!!  Occassionaly I use my palmtop in the car with a GPS and
moving map display while driving, but I have to take my Eagle
Eye sunglasses off to see the palmtop's screen.

HP palmtop lore: I remember an interesting discussion about
this in CompuServe's HPHAND forum way back when the 100LX came
out.  We asked the designers of the 95LX & 100LX why the
screen polarization was such that it was not visible with
sunglasses.  They were suprised to learn this and offered the
explanation that "nobody thought to check".  They could just
as easily had the polarization the other direction which would
allow viewing the screen with sunglasses, but they just didn't
realize it made any difference. <grin>

Hi friends,

I recently installed LaTeX 2e on the palmtop and it seems to work.

But I have one problem:

Everytime MFJOB creates a font, I get an error message (don't know if
from the program, from DOS or from the BIOS services):

'A program started an invalid indtruction without registering an
invalid opcode exception handler'.
Than the system hung up.

Does anyone know what could cause such a problem and how I can work
around this?

hello!  I've got a question for those of you who use Docread and
filini.exm.

Is there a way to get the program to read it's .cfg file if you hot-key
open a .prc file from filer?  I tried adding docread to my path
statement - that didn't help...any ideas?

FWIW, I don't think it reads the .cfg file if I open the docread.exe
from filer, either - only when I start it in Dos.

Thanks,

Terry Owen

p.s. Filini is a *super* program. Very, very handy.

Same here Chris. So I get the =A3 by pressing Alt-P, using PE.
Just paste this into your PE.MAC and the same will work for you:)

Thanks Joe... I remembered your helpful mail.  However, the one I was
in search of was from someone who had previously (maybe currently)
participatedin HPHAND.  There was reference to a discussion or FAQ on
that forum where the various techniques for syncing the palmtop to
the newer Windows version of Quicken were dicussed/solved.  I think
I was told that a rough set of instructions were cobbled together,
explaining all the techniques.  Do you remember such a message?

in anything else I have, or in either of my chargers, so I have some

It's FREE on Microsoft's web site (Word for DOS v. 5.5).  Don't remember the
exact URL but I downloaded from there last month.  And it runs on the HP.
Might try searching the site.

from Office97 to the LX).  Anyone know of sources or
resources?
Thanks.

Cliff - I've been using PAF Ver 2.2 for a number of years on my HP200LX as well as my desktop. Recently switched to the Windows Version on the
desktop but still use 2.2 on the LX. If you're interested send me a note on e-mail.

I don't know if checking would have helped. I can read the screen
perfectly well with my sun glasses - unless I try vertical reader <G>.
Seems that either the sun glasses are not all polarised the same or the
screens are not.

Interesting! I just tried an old 100LX and with that one, the screen
turns black when I put on the sunglasses. So maybe they changed the
screen polarisation at some point.

I was just pondering over what would be neat to go along with our newly

Someone should come up with some rockin' replacements for the keyboard
mask and the frame around the screen!  Something in brushed aluminum
would be cool! : )

I think you may have stumbled onto something, Andreas.  My
100LX and my 200LX are both polarized the same way - I cannot
see either of them with my sunglasses because the screen goes
black.  When I use Vertical Reader, I can see the screen fine
with my Eagle Eye sunglasses.

I wonder if HP did change the screen design at some point in
the production run or maybe just from a second source vendor.
Very interesting.  I have not heard anything about this.

Lets do some more testing.  List, members, see if you can
notice a difference in screen polarization between different
100LX and 200LX's and other LCD devices.

When I look at the LCD screens on both of my cel phones, I can
read them normally with the phone straight up, but they turn
black when I rotate them 90 degrees.

Because I'm virus shy,  I don't like downloading any *.exe or *.com files

That file is *much* too large to be an MS-DOS .com file (which have a
limit of 64kb), so you can rest assured that it is not a virus. Actually,
I still think it is the log file, although for some reason it has been
renamed. I just tried the same command, "get HPLX-L LOG9906", and got a
file about the same size.

Try looking at the file with a text-editor and see if it isn't the log,
despite the odd name.

Incidentally, there was quite a bit of talk about a program called
boot.com back then, and Longden Loo did imitate posting a 16 byte boot.com
binary to the list (tsk tsk), in UUENCODED form and that might be what
confused your mail program.


Cheers,

Laust

I recall a Japanese 200lx page with several images of custom

These are not San Disk Cards
I ordered 4 and they work well but....

Windows reports them to be used as a Standard IDE Controller
similar to the IBM Cards
The label on them says

International Game Technology
Part # 76804990

They work well with the 200lx and my OB430 but will not work with the 100lx
or the 95lx

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

To optimize my uses of the built in DB capabilities, I've looked at
Ed's Palmtop Paper articles and his 'GENERAL.GDB' (Hi Ed, thanks for
putting it all together).

I'd like to point out one thing about Option-Fields:

Ed states in the 'Group Buttons' entry of the 'GENERAL.GDB':

"1. You can't use something like '1_Option', '2_Option' because the
Database Engine will tell you that these two are equivalent. ..."

That's right, but '1_Opt-1', '2_Opt-2',...,'A_Opt-A' aren't
equivalent; the Database Engine uses 'Opt1','Opt2',...,'AOptA' to
handle the fields.

The rule seems to be something like: "Remove leading digit 0,..,9 and
remove all special characters like '_,-,....'.
(I din't try to find out the set of 'special characters' yet.)

To define a subset you may select the option '1-Opt-1' or you may
enter '{1_Opt-1}' or '(Opt1)' etc. directly into the SSL-Screen.

For data entry 'Alt+1'-key can be used to set the '1_Opt-1'-option.
This is useful to me, sine I'm using options
'1_xxx', '2_yyyy',...,'A_zzzz',... which will be redefined from time
to time, except for the leading two letters '1_','2_',....
To redefine, the DB is changed (Munu/File/Change DB...).

I've gotten one of these card with 20 megs capacity, but I can't get it

to format it, it complains about the card not being erasable. The write

Family Tree Maker ver 4.0 works great.  It's no longer being
sold by it's owners.  Copies are probably available used,
though.

I don't try to sync data with the Windows version on my
desktop.  I make all changes on the palmtop and then import
that file into the Windows version (prettier printouts).

I wrote to this guy a week ago asking about age/PN for these cards so
that I could determine if they would work in my OB300. Told him I would
take three cards if they did. Never received a reply.

Someone mentioned that they saw a custom keyboard mask and screen frame on a
japanese page. So I've been browsing a BUNCH of japanese pages looking for
it. (whew!)  I finally found a page showing 3 shots of an LX with what looks
like a woodgrain keyboard mask and screen frame.
http://www.na.rim.or.jp/~ykumano/100lx.htm
(They're down near the bottom of the page)

This is exactly what I was thinking about! Although woodgrain is pretty nice
(especially a walnut burl), I still think brushed aluminum would give the LX
a more modern look.

Where would one look to find a small thin sheet of brushed aluminum to play
with?

Hi all,

I was wondering if someone could give me a suggestion.  I find
that often that when I am reading email using POST/LX, I come
across an URL of a website that I would like to visit.  The only
way I have figured out how to remember the URL of the website is
as follows:

- write the URL address down on a piece of paper
- exit POST/LX
- start up WWW/LX
- manually type in URL address

Has anyone figured out an easier way of doing this.  I would
like not to have to write the URL address down on a piece of
paper.  I have tried to copy and paste it, but that doesn't
work.  It seems that there should be an easier way, and I just
don't know it.  I would appreciate any suggestions.  Thanks in
advance.

You might want to search for "grab" in the online help of POST/LX.

As my HP original charger ha some loose contact it does not charge every
time I expect it. I have opened the charger but do not see any loose ends
:-) and there ends my expertise.
Having had some hand phones leaves me a whole bunch of chargers and although
I know, it was discussed in some detail on the list in the past I would
still like to know:
can I use charger 1 input 100-240 V,50-60Hz, 180 mA, output DC 10 V, 740 mA
can I use charger 2 input 100-240 V,50-60Hz, 150 mA, output 7,6 VDC, 600 mA
(both above, I think regulated because they are quit light)
or should I try charger 3 from the heavier type, input 240 V, 50 Hz, output
13,5 V DC 1A.
As I am packing for a short holiday, I would like to choose between one of
them and of course would like to know why.
As I reading the index/ list could anybody who is answering give me a cc?

I have something like this:

My first 200lx developed the hinge crack and it got bad.  I had this roll
of thin metal tape which i applied around the right hinge to prevent the
crack from completely seperating the two parts of the shell.  After a
while, I got bored with having the silver stripe along the right so I
covered the whole top half of the case.

It looks better from the outside as that was what I was trying to make
look better.  I don't have pictures but I'll try to get some.

BTW- I no longer use this 200lx as it fell face first onto some tiles
and the screen didn't survive :'Ý

I haven't been able to find similar tape anywhere, and I unfoirrtunately
don't know how I came across it.  The roll is approximately 2 inches
wide and stays in place once it's settled.  Due to the width, you can see
seems where the pieces meet.  The tape itself is durable but can tear
if snagged, it also gets a nice shine when polished.  It's much like a
thick foil with a glue backing.

This same tape can be applied to give the hplx a complete new look,
though I didn't quite go that far.

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Hi friends,

recently I posted about my strange error message
'a program started an invalid instruction without registering an
invalid opcode exception handler'.

Now I have news about it and a question to all of you software gurus
(Stefan ;-), Andreas ;-)......):

As I said, this message appeared everytime I tried to compute TeX fonts
with METAFONT. I tested it hour by hour and made an interesting
experience:
The message came up _only_ when the palmtop ran on batteries. When it
was connected to the adapter, the message _never_ appeared!

I thought about what is different between running on batteries and
running on AC adapter, what could cause a _software_ error and only one
thing came in my mind: The light sleep mode.

So I disconnected the adapter, switched off the light sleep mode (with
'setit lf') and started METAFONT.... it worked!

So my question is: Does anyone know what exactly could cause this
software error message and how I could work around it (now I use 'setit
lf' and 'setit lo' to switch ls mode on and off in a batch file before
METAFONT and after METAFONT, but this is a little bit dangerous,
because sometimes METAFONT takes about 1 hour to compute all needed
fonts, and that's draining batteries!)

Any ideas?

TNX
daniel

P.S.: If anyone wants to use LaTeX2e on his palmtop, I now have a
working configuration, so I could let Mitch place it on Super or I
could email an installation guide (in German only!) to the list or
to several people!
Just email me if you're interested...

I think just about all sunglasses should be polorized the same
way because they are designed to cut down on glare and glare
is polarized a certain way.  The only thing that might be
different are special glasses for fishing, but I am not sure.

But Andreas's findings were interesting that one pair of
sunglasses showed different results between his 100LX's screen
and his 200LX's screen.  But I don't see the same difference
between my 100LX and 200LX.

This message never made it back to me, so I am re-sending (apologies

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

After just getting one daughter setup with a 100lx, the youngest is
now feeling a little left out.  So I am looking for a 95lx/100lx
either (real) cheap <g> or in trade for some old Dos software.  A
mixed cash-trade might be okay, too.

Possible trade items:

Clipper (old, old Summer 87 I think) (w\a binder\manual?)
Dbase III + (box w\original manuals)
Windows 3.0 (w\manual)
WP 5.1 disks only
Word 5.5 Dos (box w\original manuals)
Visual Basic for Dos Standard Edition (in box was academic but not
crippled) and several VBDos tutorial-type books

or

Zaurus 5000 w\box

some of the software above comes on 5 1/4 disks.  I could probably use
WinImage to transfer the disk images to 3 1/2 disks or cd-rom if that
is a problem.

If no one has a spare LX, I'll probably be putting the above items on
Ebay, so I can get a 95 from Thaddeus for her.

Thanks,

Terry Owen

p.s. My ID on Ebay is Sandstar if you would like to check out my
feedback before proceeding.  I have also bought stuff from HPLX list

I thought reflected light was mostly vertically polerized.  For this
reason I think sun glasses are usually horizontally polerized to cut the
reflected glare.

I'm not positive about these 'facts'(?); it's just something I (think I)
remember reading somewhere.

Sorry, but none of those meet the specs required by the HP
palmtop.  The external power needs to be 12 volts DC.  the 7.6
volts from charger 2 and 10 volts from charger 1 are not
enough and the 13,5 volts from charger 3 is too much.

The other important part of the charger is the polarity of the
plug on the end.  The palmtop has a symbol on the bottom by
the power plug to indicate which parts of the plug should be
plus and which should be minus.  This is very import because
if it is backwards, then you could damage the palmtop.

As far as your HP adapter is concerned, the loose connection
is probably in the wire just as it leaves the box or near the
plug end.  Perhaps you have a friend with enough experience to
try to repair the wire.

Jim,

Thanks for the correction. This is an important point. I
purchased one and it was a "San Disk" brand card. Scott
simply said pcmcia cards and I must have misunderstood.

Yep! Definitely a wishful thought! :-) Of course, you never

Oh great, see what I get for trying to be a nice guy?  So if I
did get sent to Levenworth, I could still use my LX?  I would
most likely need the soon available backlit version, because
those cells (or cribs that is) are most likely poorly lit.  I
would have to get my family to send me cigarettes (or squares
that is), so that I could trade them for batteries.  :-)

Steve,

How about just a clear sticker or gray sticker with
8,32,64,or 96MB printed on it in gold lettering to match the
current case where it says Palmtop PC-2MB RAM in the upper
right hand corner of the Screen Bezel.    =Bob=

can plug it into my PC, and use the built in infared on the Palmtop to

 I've been researching serial-to-IR interfaces for a remote control
 project on my Linux box.  Typically there are also some other passive
 electronics in there, but not much.  Not that it would be hard to do,
 but even if you saved $10 (after all, it's only $30) would it be worth
 it to risk making a mistake and not having a nice compact case for the
 project?  >>

Enter to go to the site.  It works for me with AOL and Internet Explorer.

<< I was wondering if someone could give me a suggestion.  I find

 as follows:

 - write the URL address down on a piece of paper
 - exit POST/LX

 - manually type in URL address

I bought one.  It is powered from the desktop serial port; no external power
adapter.  Works beautifully with Transfile Win200 but I'm not sure it works
with Filer/CPack.  Running Transfile on the desktop, just point the HP at it
when filer is running and away you go

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I've been reading about PIM/PE for a while now, and it's really got me
wondering what the best way is for handling my stuff.  I still don't
have a good system.  What I need is a system that I can use to keep a
journal in.  At the same time, I need to be able to have ToDo items
enterred and retrieved easily.

I work as a Commissioning Engineer and so I need to keep track of what
work we have been doing, and what has been going on - a journal.  At
the same time I need to keep track of milestone dates; unit trips;
parts to order; new items that need work; etc - databases.  I have a
few appointments, but they are mostly meetings that are of a daily
bases.  (I also need to keep performance related things handy - like
the predicted performance; calculations; conversions - but these are
the reason I keep the Palmtop and are not pertainent to this
disscussion).

i had been using NoteTaker files to keep up a journal, and several
different Databases for keeping track of the other things.  But when I
couldn't find some information I was looking for, I changed to trying
FlexPad for a daily journal - and using the ToDo categories to try to
manage my work items.  But FlexPad is not really suited (I don't
think) for a good ToDo list/Management.  Lately I have gone to
writing everything in my FlexPad journal, and then every few days
seperating out what needs to go into databases.  It works, but it
means I have to enter it twice.

This discussion got me to thinking that maybe I need to try Agenda, or
at least look deeper into PIM/PE.  I think that when Agenda first came
out, it was supposed to be designed to work the way that we do - not
force us to work the way that a program does.

Could someone give me a quick description/explaination of how Agenda,
PIM/PE, FlexPad, and FFDB, are the same, different, and how they best
handle database items.

Thanks in advance,
Steve Soper

I can't remember how I converted a Lotus 1-2-3 file to a 200LX DataBase
before.  I think I saved the wk1 file to a prn file and then somehow
imported it into a databae.  Could someone give me some quick tips on
how to do it?

TIA,

Hi Blah...Just

Sunday, August 29, 1999, you wrote to the list:

I'm pretty sure the tape in question is that which is used in the HVAC

tape and we all know duct tape can fix anything :-)

Does anyone know if the Aegis IR-HP5  (http://www.palmtop.net/ir-hp5.html)
has a power cord, or is it powered from the PC.  Am I correct in assuming I
can plug it into my PC, and use the built in infared on the Palmtop to
communication between the two.  Does anyone know if this is correct?

Has anyone had and experience using the Aegis?  Any problems with it?

 I've been researching serial-to-IR interfaces for a remote control
 project on my Linux box.  Typically there are also some other passive
 electronics in there, but not much.  Not that it would be hard to do,
 but even if you saved $10 (after all, it's only $30) would it be worth
 it to risk making a mistake and not having a nice compact case for the
 project?  >>

I can't think of a direct way. If you can get the file in
comma-separated-value text format, you can use GDBIO to load it in. If
you print from the 1-2-3 program, the values are just separated by
spaces and not commas or quotes.

If you can get your hands on a copy of Excel, you could load the 1-2-3
file, then save it in CSV format, and import that into the LX file
using GDBLOAD (in the GDBIO package). You might have to be careful
because Excel doesn't normally enclose fields in quotes unless the
field contains certain characters that have to be quoted, and GDBLOAD
expects everything to be in quotes IIRC. If you run into this problem,
let me know because I have a little program which will take an Excel
CSV file and put all the fields in quotes.

Good luck,

Curtis Cameron

Steve,

How about just a clear sticker or gray sticker with
8,32,64,or 96MB printed on it in gold lettering to match the
current case where it says Palmtop PC-2MB RAM in the upper
right hand corner of the Screen Bezel.    =Bob=

I have had several 95's, 10's and 200's and was about to conclude that all were
polorized to block light when held normally. And the oly thing I could do with my
sunglasses on was use VR <grin>. However the 200 I bought to replace a stolen one
is polorized so I can use it horizontaly -- and that's great. Just how many are
that way I don't know.

You mean a sticker on the brushed aluminum bezel? Yes, that probably would
look pretty good.

Work is going to keep me very busy for the next couple of weeks, but I like
someone's idea of using the brushed aluminum lid from radio shack. Sometime
in the next month I think I'll swing by there and get one to see what I can
come up with for the LX. The screen bezel should be reasonably easy to do,
but cutting all those holes for the keyboard looks quite daunting! : )

To get the file into csv grab this file from the supersite:

123CLIP allows you to transfer data between a 1-2-3

I use Info Select on my HP100LX and would like to share with others who
use the same.  In fact, Info Select is the only program I regularly use
on the Palmtop.  How have you integrated the Info-Select into your
life?  I use mine for phone lists, todo lists, projects, goals, it is
great for stashing information.  I am thinking that there may be
advanced ways for storing information that some of you might have
discovered and could share.  Particularly, I am interested in
--Selection of stacks--  How do you organize your stacks?

It works with CPACK, too.  That's the only way I use it (don't like
TransFile - it leaves off too many handy features of CPACK, not to mention
it's lack of speed).

I *did* try to use the IR adaptor for plain, character-at-a-time serial
communications, and gave up.  I decided that the device must work on some
block format, and wasn't suited to byte at a time protocols.  If anyone
know more, or otherwise, please let me know.

That's the plan... but it still looks daunting! <g>
If I used a metallic paper like you suggested, it wouldn't be too hard.
But I think I'm going to try using an actual thin sheet of brushed

If I succeed at this, I'll try to get a picture of it posted somewhere.

Does anyone know of a way to power down the PCMCIA slot with a card STILL
installed?

I have a 45MB Simple Tech Flash card that, when installed gives me a battery
life (1100mah NiCad's of 7-8 hrs.

W/O the CF card installed I get ~20hrs on my 6MB DS 200lx. What I am looking for
is a way to "Turn Off" the CF card without removing it from the PCMCIA Slot. Is
this possible and/or advisable?

TIA

Stefan's LXcic will do the trick.... or at least it will power down some
modems if they support the feature.

There is a 1-2-3 add-in program on S.U.P.E.R. called, "123dlm" that gives
Lotus the ability to export CSV formatted data.  Its simple & well documented.

Has anybody ran debug on this program per. the readme so that it can be used
on a double speed palmtop. If so, can you forward me a copy.


<snip>

I have heard of a hardware hack performed on some HPs whereby a crystal
is changed to make them faster (please do not ask me about it, I have
no idea how to do it, nor a pointer to someone who does).  The
the program does not have any timing loops; it simply stores the high
and low pulse lengths EXCEPT for a low- pass filter which is used to filter
out the 40KHz remote carrier frequency.  This filter is implemented as a
loop which should kill time between successive high edges of the incoming
signal.  A faster machine could cause the loop to execute faster  and
thus make it fall inside a low signal edge.  The result would be very
long and high frequency remote codes which would fail to correctly modulate
the internal carrier used for replay.  The constant I am using is 8 and
it can be found by loading the program in DEBUG and searching for the
sequence "7E FE 08 FC".  I have been told that after changing the 8s to
12s (the person who told me did not mention whether 12 was decimal or
hexadecimal) the program can be used with the faster machine.

Stephan, you flatter me, but I don't think anyone needs my 123-file to see
how to "Multiply C2 by C3" and "Add C4 to D4." :)

I did some more looking and came up with a couple of programs that worked,
but none as well as I'd like.

While I was trying to figure out an other problem in Quicken, though, I
discovered that Quicken has investment tracking features built into it. It
seems to be just what I'm looking for. The answer was right under my nose
all along.=20

NOTE: I'm referring to Quicken 8 for DOS, NOT the Quicken that comes with
the LX.

Thanks,
Don

Paul,

What a great thread to start.  I would love to hear the details of how you
use it.  I have had a copy for many years but only use it for a few things.

The primary use I have is for filing.  Before implementing this system I had
trouble finding files.  Should I put info about my car under auto, car,
celica, or toyota.  Problem was I would think differently over time.  It was
hard to find information filed.

I use it as an electronic index to all of my files.  Each physical file has
a number 1001, 1002,..... I then have a small form with file number(auto
numbering) name, and keywords.  Now I have four different account at Bank of
America.  I just search for 'bofa' and pull up all four.  Takes me seconds
to find a file.  Also, starting to add keywords like...TAX98 if a file has
tax information.  Just wait for tax time.  This system works because I do
not have to remember the exact term.

One thing that I would like to learn how to do.  I remember I had read about
it on a post on Compuserve a long long time ago. My vision is poor.  I would
like to setup info select to work in other resolutions.  I believe there is
a way to tell infoselect to use less screen space and hence have it work
well in lower resolution.

If any one knows how to do this, I would love to know.

I use Info Select on my HP100LX and would like to share with others who
use the same.  In fact, Info Select is the only program I regularly use
on the Palmtop.  How have you integrated the Info-Select into your
life?  I use mine for phone lists, todo lists, projects, goals, it is
great for stashing information.  I am thinking that there may be
advanced ways for storing information that some of you might have
discovered and could share.  Particularly, I am interested in
--Selection of stacks--  How do you organize your stacks?

Thanks,

Paul C.

I've just got my Accton EN2216-2 (Yes it does work, but it was sent in error, so I'm
going to return it) and installed lxtcp and the other bits to get TCP/IP to/from my
HP200LX.
So far so good, I can telnet into my Linux box, I can ftp into my linux box. I
haven't tried pop3/news yet, BUT...
I cannot telnet into my HP200LX nor FTP to it.

I have run lxpasswd passwd.cfg which sets up a username and password.
I run telnet which starts in server mode.
I try to telnet into my hp200lx and get the message
        "Packet received for invalid port -- reset sent"
When I try to ftp into my hp200lx i get the messages
        "user mike login request"
        "password failure"

I KNOW I'm typing the correct password!

Help!
There does not seem to be a manual for telnet. Nor any mention of the telnet or ftp
servers.
I know they are there; I wouldn't get these messages if they weren't.

Can anyone help?
I would really like to backup using the ftp server.

Apart from that -- great package Rod.
I've yet to try the Windows connectivity, as I cannot get Windows NT 4.0 to run
sharing! I get the message
        "The Server service terminated with the following error:
Not enough server storage is available to process this command"

Can anyone help with this one too? I know it's off-topic.

I got my first 200LX 3-4 years ago it was polarized the wrong way.  I got a
replace 4M 200LX earlier this year and it is polarized the right way.  Looks
like HP fixed it:)

There's something else.  The two hinges have different feel.  The old one
feels mushy, with no difference in resistance between starting and moving.
The new one seems to require a slightly bigger effort to get it to move; once
it starts moving, it seems to take less effort to keep it moving.  Also, it seems
to give a squeaky noise when it starts to move.  Sorry I cannot describe it better.

Regards,
Alfred

I think you may have stumbled onto something, Andreas.  My
100LX and my 200LX are both polarized the same way - I cannot
see either of them with my sunglasses because the screen goes
black.  When I use Vertical Reader, I can see the screen fine
with my Eagle Eye sunglasses.

I wonder if HP did change the screen design at some point in
the production run or maybe just from a second source vendor.
Very interesting.  I have not heard anything about this.

Lets do some more testing.  List, members, see if you can
notice a difference in screen polarization between different
100LX and 200LX's and other LCD devices.

When I look at the LCD screens on both of my cel phones, I can
read them normally with the phone straight up, but they turn
black when I rotate them 90 degrees.

Subject:      newbie questions
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

I've just purchased a 200lx and am looking forward to putting it to work.
Browsing the SUPER site has opened my eyes to the possibilities out there
for these little devices, but a couple of questions have come up for me.
Bear with me as these are no doubt real "beginner" problems.

I'm downloading to a desktop at present, as I don't have the necessary
equipment to download directly to the LX yet.  My first question is about
the .zip format: how do I use, for example, the unzip utility found on the
SUPER site to open these files?  The unzip utility downloads as an .exe
file, but when it opens itself there are a couple of .exe files to choose
from and I'm unsure how to set it up to unzip, say, the Newton keyboard
file when I download that.

My second question regards transferring this stuff to my LX.  I have a
modem on the way, and I will be subscribing to palmtop.com shortly.  I see
that CC:MAIL allows me to attach files; is this a workable way to transfer
stuff to and from my desktop (which is at work)?  I could email a couple
of LapLink files to the desktop and then connect the LX via the serial
port to transfer the rest, could I not?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer (like I said-- real
"beginner" stuff!).

0x60 should not be used for a packet driver on the palmtop (as
it's used by the system manager).  Try 0x66 to be safe.

You might also want to look at LXETH in my software library:

        http://rwhitby.hplx.net/download.html

Version 2.0 of LXCIC (still in beta testing) replaces op2216,
and LXEN2216 replaces pd2216, and the combination allows you
to power-cycle the palmtop and still keep the TCP/IP connection.

Interesting.  It seems that there are a few 100LX's and
200LX's with different displays.  I have no idea what that
percentage could be.

There is a pgm w2000 or a connectivity pack to transfer files between
the PC and LX.  Yu will need a special serial null cable.
Alt yu could use a PC flash disk reade/drv.
PCUNZIP off of the www will unzip files on the PC, then transfer.

That used to be the case for me also, before I started using my lx (I
used to use a Poqet, which I still have).

I mainly still use in its random style, but I have used forms before, and
still use them at times
A tip I would share is  the use of the Fn keys to remind you of the forms
you use (very easy to forget, since the program doesn't force anything on
you).  You use the USER stack for that effect. (I also use the Fn keys to
remind me of all kinds of things, including frequently used commands, key
codes, my weekly schedule, etc.).

I use the palmtop's built-in programs for organized information, because
of those program's ability to display just the need information from each
record, rather than the whole record.  But nothing beats IS for search
speed!
I wish there was a semi-automatic way of putting organization on the
random notes.  I have been experimenting with hypertext, but cannot get
it to work just right.

I have the advantage of speaking several languages, which allows me to
rename a stack to another language other than English, when I run out of
unique first letters in English.  :-)
I think I know what you mean, though.   I vaguely remember a way to sort
groups of stacks together on the USER stack, so that it would look
neater.  Is that what you mean?  I dismissed it at the time because I was
more concerned with being able to press a single key to access a stack,
and adding the layer of organization  meant pressing more keys to select
a stack (because of the abundance of words that start with the same
letter, whether or not it referred to a stack).

How do you use the hypertext command?  That's my last frontier with IS.

I guess you are aware of the use of the USER stack to get the Fn keys to
remind you of things.

Are these disk files, or windows  in an IS stack?  I find it much easier
to just store all such information inside an IS stack.

Xtra-Frame, should do it for you.

Don't forget to turn off cursor tracking, so you can zoom in on what you
want.   The command is 'dispctl -c'

I began using Flexpad several months ago after I read a newsgroup posting
from a HP200 LX user who said it was one of their favorite programs.

I use it every day at work (all day long).  All in one file I have  (1) my
todo lists (which are simple to access and enter info to...  I have several
categories, and I jump instantly to any of them just by typing the first few
letters of the category.  You add whatever categories you want, and you can
add and delete them at any time).  I USE THE SECTION marks for each item.

I also have a section I call  (2) ARCHIVE where I paste items I no longer
need in front of my face, but may want to refer to at a later date.  I have a
section for  (3) PROJECTS where I enter progects (with the date and time).
Click two buttons and the view changes to a monthly calendar, or a weekly
calendar, or a preview of the next seven days.  Click two more keys and
you're back at the TODO lists.

It is powerful and very quick.  I downloaded a 88 page text research document
last night to my Palmtop (single spaced in MS Word), and opened it with
Flexpad.  Press two keys, enter a search word, and in seconds I have a list
of every instance of the word in the document.  Click on any one and hit
Enter, and you're at that place in the document.  VERY SLICK,  VERY FAST,
VERY POWERFUL.  The only thing I miss is the ability to use the clipboard to
easily cut and paste to the HP Applications on the Palmtop.  NOTE:  You can
cut and paste within a document in Flexpad,  just can't copy someting in
Flexpad, then open the PIM Database and paste it there.

The S.U.P.E.R. Site has the shareware program, so you can drive the program
around a bit, and kick the tires -- and check it out for yourself.

I'd be lost without it.

The Calvin editor (vi clone) is on the SUPER site, and it's a small and
capable clone, tho lacking in some features.

You may also want to look at VIM 3.0, tho I'm not sure if that's at SUPER
or not. Bigger but very full featured.

        Hello,

        I am selling my Sparcom Drive100. It's a portable floppy disk drive
for 720kb & 1.44Mb disks. I don't use it anymore. It is almost new (very,
very little used, really) and works as the first day.

        I have no original box for it, but I keep it's manual and drivers
disk.

        I am asking US$100 for it.

        This is the second time I post this ad, so you may have seen it before
(although it was some months ago). I hope this time I get a real customer ;)

        In short:

        I ask US$100, and you get:

        -The drive
        -It's original cable, manual and driver (even the original bill if
         you want it)

        You do NOT get:

        -The original box (sorry)
        -The transformer needed to recharge it's internal batteries (unless
        you are an european, the one I use will be unuseable for you). Any
        transformer from 9V to 18V will work (AC or DC, that does not matter).
        -Shipping is not included. Postal Service will be some $20 to US
        from Spain. FedEx/UPS are more expensive.


                Bye,
                                Alberto

Also available is the ELVIS vi editor clone.  It falls mid-way between
CALVIN and VIM.  I find that I use all three in various situations.  And
ELVIS is the only one that properly routes I/O when one uses the CTTY
command...

I use Boot Commander (written by the same folks as System Commander).  It's
out of print, but is still being legally sold by MIX software.  Works just
fine for me - I use it on my palmtop all the time.

My original post of 8/30 did not show in the Digest so.....Here it is again! My
apologies for the waste of bandwidth:(

Does anyone know of a way to power down the PCMCIA slot with a card STILL
installed?

I have a 45MB Simple Tech Flash card that, when installed gives me a battery
life (1100mah NiCad's of 7-8 hrs.

W/O the CF card installed I get ~20hrs on my 6MB DS 200lx. What I am looking for
is a way to "Turn Off" the CF card without removing it from the PCMCIA Slot. Is
this possible and/or advisable?

TIA

Yes it is possible. You can use LXcic and if the card suppports the =
feature,
you can power it down with it still in the slot. If you have trouble =
finding
the file, drop me a line and I'll mail it to you.

Sandisk now has a device that will read compact flash and plugs into the USB
port.  They also have a parallel port model.  There is another device by
another company that will read compact flash, full size flash and smart
media cards.  They also have both USB and Parallel models.  I can't recall
it's name but I saw it at Microcenter (after I had already bought and
installed the Sandisk compact flash one.)

They're all about $100 and the one I got works very well.  Backing up is now
trivial.  I zip c: to a:\cdrive.zip and copy the card to my desktop using
this device.  I recomend it highly.

Before this i was doing pretty much the same thing on my laptop with it's
built in PCMCIA and then copying to a Zip disk.

Put pkunzip.exe somewhere in your path.  If you're not sure what the path
is, type PATH and hit enter and it will give you a list of directories
seperated by semi-colons.  Put pkunzip.exe in one of those directories.
That way you can always use it by typing it's name wherever you might be.

Put the target file (the one you want to unzip) in a directory by itself and
type:
PKUNZIP -d TARGET.ZIP.

The reason it should be in a directory by itself is that a large number of
files might be extracted from it and it's nice to have them all together.
The -d (make sure it's lower case) tells pkunzip to maintain the directory
structure that is indicated in the zip file, if there is a directory
structure.  Some zip files have them.  Others don't.  If target.zip doesn't
have one that parameter is ignored.

Pkzip is able to compress files in a directory and in all directories below
it and pkunzip can recreate that same directory structure.  That's what this
is about.

You can get a cable to connect to the 200lx.  I believe they have a link to
some on the Super Site.   Thaddeus at www.palmtoppaper.com also sells them.
There are a variety of software options available once you get the cable.

After the discussion about adding MP3 playback to the 200, I checked out the
philips site where they have a chipset to do MP3 playback that could work
thru the PCMCIA slot and would be within the capabilities of the HP as far
as speed and power requirements, and inquired as to pricing. Here's the
answer I got back. I won't include the .pdf file with pricing, but the
hilites are:

1000 pcs board is $405 (then add cabling, case, software)
5000 pcs components $88 (then add board, labour, cabling, case, software)

Definitely cheaper to use duct tape and a RIO until you can sell 25000 pcs
or more.

Subject:      Golf game update (Was Accolade Mean18)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-2"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hello all,

(Bad news follow here, good news at the end)
Almost a DOZEN people have sent me e-mail, asking for a copy of
old golf simulator game, called Mean18 by Accolade/MicroSmiths.

I can send you this, but you can't use it! It is on an original
360kb, 5-1/4 inch floppy and label says: copy protected.
In a desktopPC it only runs if original floppy is placed in the
big 5,25 drive, which must be assigned drive letter A: If you
copy it with VGA-Copy, DOS or any tool, duplicate won't work.

You can run it from hard disk, but it checks if the orig. floppy
is in the A: drive, before continue, which I presume prohibits
using it on the 200LX as is.

I have tried to make disk images with DiskDupe, but it failed as
some sectors of the disk are marked as bad, according to Norton
Disk Doctor. Obviously there is some dark trick hidden there.

Using my desktop XT, I tried it from the floppy and the game works!
It has a single screen setup suitable for CGA: 320x200x4 color,
using the red, brown, green palette. I don't know how it would
translate to LCD shades (regarding readablity) maybe some util
can help with this issue. Simulation itself looks reasonable.

Considering the amount of interest in this game, probably some-
one over there in the USA should check if there is any person
or company who owns this software and contact them to have it
released unprotected and for free; just like M$, Borland, Lotus
and others give away legacy programs over the Net.

If there is noone in charge of the game, a skilled programmer
may be able to crack and remove copy protection/hardware key
features from the game, so then all LXers could enjoy doing
something useful instead of work. If there is a volunteer, I
can send him the original floppy disk so he can experiment.

I found another old DOS game, called Pure-Stat Football by
Software Simulations Inc., which you CAN run on the LX. It is
an american football simulator, which appears to be really
sophisticated. I will send it to SUPER site for download.

                 Sincerely: Tamas Feher.

        I use a batch file & Jorgen Dybdahl's BOOT.COM...for instance
        if I wanted to boot my LAN setup (before Rod's latest effort) I
        had a 2 line file called BOOTLAN.BAT:

This is a job posting for a volunteer position on the SUPER Team that
maintains the collections at www.palmtop.net. I have been working to
keep the software collections semi up to date for going on three years
now and I find that I am just swamped with other ventures. Each update
seems to get farther and farther apart which is not fair to the HPLXers
of the world.

Here's the type of person I'm looking for:

* Knows their way around a bash shell account (Red Hat Linux)
* Can determine distribution rights of software (no commercial or
  restricted stuff can go up)
* Is very adept at 100LX/200LX usage
* Knows how to make both DOS and System Manager screen caps
* Trustworthy (don't need hackers)
* Can commit to making regular updates
* Can maintain the SUPER.GDB and keep it updated on the SUPER Site

This job is totally volunteer with the only payment being the accolades
of HPLX community and your name in lights on the SUPER pages.

It's not easy so if you have doubts, don't apply.

Email your qualifications to me if interested in becoming one of the
chosen few. :)

Bob,

Read your internet news within POST/LX and press the "g" button whenever you
see an interesting link, e-mail adress or text. The program asks you to append
the line to a file which you can specify in POST.CFG

When you are finished you start WWW/LX and load the links from the grebfile
that holds the previously saved links :-)

Hi John & list

I dont know about pdf directly, however there is a translation section under
the adobe web site.  Its under special disabilities (LX a disability :))

You can do RT translation PDF>HTML or PDF>TXT  There is also an email option
if I recall correctly.

I used it to TLate the 200LX Manual from PDF> Read on my LX.

Worked well.

I trust this is of benefit and will do what you want.  Sorry but dont have
the URL handy and am typing from offline.  Its www.adobe.com I think.

PGP will refuse to run if the documentation is not available.  Both
pgpdoc1.txt and pgpdoc2.txt must be present (although they may be empty
if you want to save disk space.)

However, I don't think that's your problem.  If you're running PGP from
within the PIM software, you need to go to "Setup => System => Advanced" and
set the memory reserved for Dos to 380K or better.

If you could show us the exact error message, it would help.

Subject:      Info-Select / making it easier to view
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=US-ASCII

          This is what you need to do to make Info-Select default to a
          larger font and have only one window at a time fill the screen.
          I find that this makes Info Select much easier to view and use.

          1. i.bat file
             a) d:\bin dispctl -c        rem: turns cursor tracking off
             b) setit g2                 rem: g = cga 2 = 40 X 16
                                         rem: (get from SUPER)
             c) cd c:\is
             d) is n lphone              rem: n=non-resident l=load file
             e) d:\bin dispctl +c        rem: turns cursor tracking on

          2. Adjustments to Info Select from the "adjustment" menu

             a) A = adjustment menu
             b) W = window adjustments
             c) <DOWN ARROW>
             d) show window position on frame: choice does not matter
             e) <DOWN ARROW>
             f) maximum visible windows: 1
             g) <DOWN ARROW>
             h) post edit frame fit: no
             i) <DOWN ARROW>
             j) pre-edit frame fit: no

           3. Adjustments to the frame of each window

             a) create a window manually that is 15 X 39
                1) N = open and edit a new window
                2) scroll down to line # 15 and type any character
                3) <ESC> = changes the arrow keys to window sizing control
                   keys
                4) use down arrow to set bottom frame to 16 by pressing it
                   twice
                5) use right arrow to set left frame to 40 by pressing it
                   once
                6) <ESC> to leave window size mode
             b) X = xtra
             c) F = frame
             d) 1 = make future new windows the same size as the current
                    window
             e) Y = yes to confirm
             f) X = xtra
             g) F = frame
             h) 2 = change all windows to match shape of current window
             i) Y = yes to confirm
             j) Y = yes again to confirm

I also use the Disabled Access plug-in ; one thing to be aware of is that
if the PDF file is secured, as in not being able to copy text, the option
to export to TXT or HTML will not work.  Oddly enough, you can select and
copy text page by page in that case.  Too much work for a large pdf but one
that was just a few pages shouldn't be a big problem.

Has anyone ever tried to use Acrobat this way from a command line?

How about an encyclopedia for the 200lx with Pictures and thing off
that sort.  Just a simple encyclopedia with a search and browse
function.  Any one know of a software like this?

Most polarized glasses are horizontally polarized only.  Maui Jims are an
exception.  There is no way you can use a LX while wearing them.  I
recommend Revo's H2O series as superb glasses that are also LX compatible
unless you use vertical reader.

This is so much like DOS/Unix... a tool or option for every obscure purpose
<g>.

BTW, there's also a clone called "xvi" that'll run on the LX, but
inadvertent editing of large files can lock up your LX, mucho grande.

Hum.  If the glasses are polarized both horizontally and vertically, they

If your desktop or laptop has a PCMCIA slot, the best answer is a flash
memory card.  You are going to want one soon anyway.  I've seen 48 meg cards
under $150, so mass storage for the 200LX in now very affordable.  The card
is recognized on the Windoze machine or the 200LX as an ATA Hard Drive, so
transfer is both very easy, and much faster than any other solution.

I have four disks that I got several years ago from Public Brand Software
about uncopy protecting software. Suppose I could upload somewhere in any
interest.

I also have a shareware program that uncopy protects additional software. I
need to get rid of looking up info in Sargon IV's manual which one has to pay
to get that patch. I could also dig out the reference if any interest. I think
info is on the web somewhere.

Really? how does SysMgr use that interrupt vector?

The reason I ask is becuse I've been using 0x60 for my slip packet driver,
pppd, and for the past few months my lpe net card, all from within SysMgr,
and have not noticed any problems.

Usually when an interrupt vector is in use, the packet driver notices and
won't load.  However, I know from experience with desqview on my desktop
that seperate DOS windows don't always see int vecs in use in other windows
which has been the source of quite a bit of frustration in the past.  That
said, I wouldn't hold it past SysMgr to fool the packet driver into seeing
an unsued vec.

OK Lynn,  I don't have the technical specs on the Maui Jims.  Trust me, they
are not sleep masks.  Next time I visit my favorite sunglass vendor, I will
send you there specs.  Perhaps I can get them via email sooner.  Needless to
say,  I had to return a wonderfull pair of Maui Jims and spend an extra $150
on a pair of Revos so I could use my 200LX in the sun.  Money well spent!!

Regards,

Colin

My understanding is that 0x60 is the software interrupt used to access
200LX system manager functions from EXM programs.
