Agreed.  I have been using dBASE IV version 1.1 on the palmtop for six months
now.  PCFile and dBASE III didn't cut it, as they didn't allow memo fields that
could be interchanged with modern databases such as Access, Paradox and
FoxPro.  But dBASE IV works quite well.  Now I can keep track of our large
inventory of equipment at work, and log my activities, directly on the
palmtop.  Then when I am done with updates I can import it into our Paradox 8
for Windows 95 network database.  I spent $50 for a used copy of Paradox 3.5
for DOS to see if it would work with v.8 for Windows 95, and to no avail... but
dBASE IV 1.1 worked fine!

I would be interested to hear if dBASE V has been tested on the palmtop, or if
other versions of dBASE IV have, and how they compare speed-wise,
disk-space-usage, etc.

Tim Morrison and I have been working for some time on his
problem. Frankly, I have no idea what is going there. I have
looked at his stuff, and short of trying his setup in my
machine we did everything - all to no avail. I had an idea
just the other night and emailed it to him,

He sounds skeptical that we have many customers who _do_ use
IBMNet, but I beg to differ with him with all due respect. In
our Beta, the first connection was direct connect, then came
CIS, then IBM Net. It has worked ever since. One or fellows
here, Tony Hutchins, uses Ibm Net and it does work for him. He
also set up several other customers straight, sometimes before
I get to them (well he lives in New Zealand and his day begins
when I begin to snore at night! :) I can probably think of at
least 10-15 customers right off the top of my head, and at one
point when I counted, it was many many times that...

I think IBM Net has done a good job in stability, but perhaps
the latest intro of PPP protocols and different numbers and
all that made the network a bit shaky. (I thought, in fact,
thet Tim's problems came from the PPP usage, and emailed him
last night about that.).

Anyway, thanks for emailing to him and inviting him. He will
DEFIBITELY benefit from the camaraderie and knowledge base of
this list! I know I learn something EVERY SINGLE TIME I login.

And _you_ personally know I care about my customers and look
high and low for solutions, even with you :)... (private
remark!)

That line IS in my C:\config.sys

But C: was unavailable, and D:\config.sys of course does NOT have that.

Would it work if a copy of C:\autoexec.bat and C:\config.sys were also
located on A: ? I wouldn't think so, if it can't read A: without the
config.sys, and the config.sys is _on_ A: .....

Hello,

I have some problems in transferring large files >20 Kbytes from
my C directory (I have a HP200LX - 2 Meg RAM) to A, a 16 Meg Flash
Disk Card made by Viking.

If I try to transfer the files directly to A, with CPACK I get the
prompt "...Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected..."
were the Flash Disk is almost empty. If I try to transfer the files
with the File Manager I then got the prompt I/O Error. I do not have
problems in transferring files that are approx. <20Kbyte

Do I have a too slow transmission rate?

Thanks in advance for your help
Regards

Raphael

Hi Raphael,

I've seen this problem before!!!!!!!!!!.

Do a fdisk on the card and then re-format.

But: they are opened units that obviously were shipped to other
customers first (OK, I only saw two, so 'research' on a probe with n=2
is not very valid...) Neither of the units worked! Thaddeus does not
support the modems - they just have a flexible policy for returns (I did
get my money back). The second modem they sent me whacked my C: drive...
I would not buy there (again).

I did order one at http://www.onsale.com for $17 dollars - it's a
brand-new AT&T modem. (I haven't had the time to test it yet, however.)

I also checked http://www.surplusdirect.com , but their index was not as
good.

Good luck!

Well, now that you mentioned it, I too had the same problem-C drive was
blown, but my a card was ok.  I was using the newton keyboard at the time.
 I found out that I needed to be using the -1 switch with the driver.  I
also have the 2x 8meg!!

     This is really weird! I had the same thing happen yesterday! I
spent most of today trying to find the exact cause of the problem, and
I'm still baffled!!!

- I placed my LX in my Smart Dock ~5:00pm EST, and it started to boot,
but failed to boot completely.

- Everything from CONFIG.SYS seemed to load OK, but when my AUTOEXEC
got to andrew2, the problems started:

     - the font loader appeared to load OK (but later I realized that
the font was not changed from the default.

     - EXKEY was the next program to load, which failed.

     - MOREEXM was next to load, but it stalled here.

Here are my observations after a few hours of investigation:

- both the EXKEY.ini & MOREEXM.ini files appeared to be intact.

- I finally ran CHKDSK, and my TREMM.SWP was corrupted as well as one
large .TXT file that was open in Vern Berg's LIST. ~carosel.tmp was
also corrupted. There were a few other files corrupted as well
which were not open, or related.

- Hilighting a file in FILER and ENTER gave an error msg ("cannot find
İMORE¨") even though FILER.ini & PNS200.ini appeared OK

- Software Carousel would not load, "Could not find CAROUSEL.PGM"
although that file appeared OK.


*** I had attributed this to a glitch in SC until now!!!

BTW: I also have a 1mB 200LX upgraded to 2x, 8mB.

- I have a STACked 4mB EXP1414LXM which appears to be OK.

Anybody Else Have a Problem?

     I find it hard to believe this is a coincidence!

This morning I was trying to call my ISP using WWW/LX and it totally froze
my palmtop after dialing and negotiating.  I was unable to Reset the
machine with any keyboard combinations.  I removed and restored power and
now my computer is TRASHED.  I have a blinking block video display and no
keyboard response.  I expect I will be sending the computer for repair
($$$) as a result.

I would like to hear, PRIVATELY (direct e-mail), from everyone else on the
list who has had to do hard reset and other risky operations on their 200LX
as a result of problems with the WWW/LX program suite.  I believe it is a
widespread phenomenon, and we should get together.

If you are talking about the C drive on your palmtop, just use filer, split
the screen with your f7 key, and use your menu, file, copy selections to
accomplish what you want.

If you are talking about the C drive on your PC, I have no problems to date
with 57,600 as the baud rate. I have had problems with faster speeds.

Good luck.

I've been using WWW/LX since it came out.  Upgraded to WWW/LX with
Post/LX when D&A released that.  I'm not gonna claim the software is
perfect, but what is??  It IS a damn good product for accessing the
'net with the palmtop.  I have had to do the 3-finger salute (soft
reboot) on very rare occasions, but the machine came back up without
problems.  This, like all my email, is being sent with my palmtop, using
you-know-what software.  And, no, I don't have any connection with D&A,
except as a satisfied customer.

I'm sorry to hear about your palmtop, but I doubt that it was caused=
 by
WWW/LX.  Were you by any chance trying to connect during a
thunderstorm?

If you assume that all your data is trashed anyway, try taking out ALL
the batteries and any card that's in the slot.  Leave everything out
overnight, put in fresh batteries, and see what happens.

If you are using MS-DOS 6.xx I would hihgly recommend to use
INTERLNK.EXE and INTERSVR.EXE which are both delivered with MS-DOS 6.xx.
With those Programms you can access the Drives of your HP200LX as if
they were drives of your desktop. You can even share them about a LAN.
On my Desktop I have INTERLNK.EXE (with is a TSR) always running, and
so I only have to plug the HP200LX to the serial cable and start
INTERSVR.EXE to copy files.

I just bought an XJ2144 for $20 at eBay.com.  Check under
Computers:Hardware:Modems and search for "PCMCIA".  You'll find a lot under

It may be too fast.

When I downloaded ZIP files to my A: (old Intel 4meg)
with Transfile 200, I would get corrupted ZIPs. Downloading
the same files to C:, then copying to A: fixed the problem.
I have also had no problem when the Flash card was plugged into
the PCMCIA socket on my laptop.

I assume its some interaction between the (relative) slow write speed
of all Flash cards and i/o error functions in the transfer software.

Hi Daniel, & List Members

I had INTERLNK set once and it work great, but since have lost the

Don't know if they still have any more but back in December I got an XJ1144

The latest that I have had success with was HACK 3.60. Nethack Lite does
not work well at all. On a similar note, most of the other Roguelike Games
that I have tried will work, after a fashion, if you get the right
versions. Angband 1.3.1 works, all of the Morias work, and Larn works.
Omega won't, as it uses 386 code. Mail me if you want URLs. Oh, let me
mention that all but Larn and Rogue like to swap to the disk, and often, so
be certain that you use a fast disk, or else you are going to be frustrated
bye the performance.

Try a İctrl¨ + İalt¨+ İdel¨, then as the palmtop is booting up hit

I would like to hear, PRIVATELY (direct e-mail), from everyone else on
the list who has had to do hard reset and other risky operations on their
200LX as a result of problems with the WWW/LX program suite.  I believe it
is
a widespread phenomenon, and we should get together.

Ian,

Thanks but the goal is to access the JAM'med volume on my Flash Card for
back-up, JMAX, transfer and reorganization purposes of the stored HP200LX
files.

I am willing to "restart the computer in MS-DOS mode?" to access the card
from plain DOS but how do I do to load the JAM.SYS driver then ?

Phil,

Thanks, I just tried that one also but it controls the same settings as the
ON and + or - key combination for contrast setting.

I was hoping that there is some kind of variable resistor in the HP that I
could tune with a screwdriver to bring the contrast mid-point back to normal.
Has anyone already witnessed such a phenomenon?

Do you happen to be using Software Carousel?  It works well on mine:=
 I
have the System Manager in area 1, WWW and Post/LX running in area 2.

> I could not get ANY response to any keyboard combo after WWW/LX locked

I had this problem once with my 200LX, the first week I had it.  I was
running one of the built-in apps (Datacomm) and suddenly the unit locked
up.  So I tried all the reset combinations, to no avail.  Finally I=
 took
out the batteries, and put them back in-- no response.  Nothing, from
fresh batteries to plugging it in, did anything to help.  Finally I=
 gave
up and drove into town to buy a new one.  By the time I got back (two
hours) I was pretty angry, and got my old 200LX ready to return, but
decided to try it just to make sure-- and it came back on and worked=
 fine.
 I've never had such a problem again except when doing battery
experiments.

I also do not accept the concept that a program hang should cause such=
 a
trouble as you reported.  To me it sounds like a hardware problem.
However, it is possible that a program could lock up the machine requiring =

a hardware reset.  In fact, somewhere around here I have a little program
designed to do just that, which I wrote to test the durability of the
200LX.

As far as WWW/LX goes: communications with the 200LX is an inherently
dangerous thing, due to the amount of current required for serial ports=
 to
operate reliably and especially if a PCMCIA modem is to be used.  Both=
 the
serial port and the PCMCIA socket are intimately tied into the power
supply on the motherboard, and if the hardware or connection is having
trouble, it is easy enough to crash the machine, or even wipe out the
memory.  WWW/LX is no safer from such hardware considerations than
NetTamer, Datacomm, or any other program that communicates.  You cannot
reasonably expect a program to be able to overcome a hardware problem--
error correction is only so good.

Personally, I have used WWW/LX for quite a while now and never had a
problem EXCEPT when I was having PCMCIA card or other serial port
trouble.  WWW/LX, and especially WWW/LX Plus, is a _WONDERFUL_ program
that, for many, makes the difference between buying a 200LX and a WinCE
handheld.

So please, before we go making accusations about WWW/LX, let's take=
 a
look at the hardware situation, which is the more likely cause of your
problems.  The purpose of this list is not to make accusations but to
help each other with what we need.  I would like to hear what modem=
 you
are using, your ISP, and what the line conditions are.

If anybody else has any comments, or suggestions, I welcome them.  Note
that I have no official connections, and receive no benefits whatsoever,
from D&A software, except that I am a very happy and grateful user of
WWW/LX and Post/LX.

I think this stuff has to be exposed to light to work for any time, but
you might just have to leave the unit open for a while to do this.

Maybe you should contact Mack from Times2Tech!!! If there's any technical background to your story, that would be a really nice upgrade that many people would wanna have!

The use of INTERLNK.EXE only requires a entry in your CONFIG.SYS
(on your desktop):

     DEVICE=C:\DOS\INTERLNK.EXE

on the palmtop you simply start INTERSVR.EXE

to see in what driveletters are used, type INTERLNK on the desktop.
After the first access, they are also shown on the palmtopscreen.

The system should als work vice versa (INTERLNK on HP200LX,
INTERSVR on the desktop).

Thats all....


There is one more options you have to write in the CONFIG.SYS entry
if required:

/DRIVES:n    number of redirected drives (default=3   A:,B:,C:)

Some more options, which are not as important, should be descibed
in your MS-DOS help file.

When I asked him about it a few months ago, he said that the only way to
get it and register it now was on Compuserve, in the HPHand forum, and on
the SWREG to register it.

A good link is: http://www.win.tue.nl/games/roguelike/

I think Rogue is availiable on SUPER. A similar game is the Epyx classic
"Temple of Apshai (Trilogy)". Granted it is a bit simple, but it runs well
on the palmtop and has great sentimental value if you ever played it on
your Atari/Colecovision/C64/other classic 8-bit system :-)


Cheers,

The version of Rogue that's up on SUPER is kind of buggy, being v1.0.  I
recently submitted version 1.1, which is kind of hard to find, to Mitch,
and hopefully it will get put up there.

It has a much better keyboard and screen, better software support, is
cheaper, has more storage and I sleep with it at night.

Yes, we have just started a thread about dBASE.  dBASE IV runs quite well on
the palmtop, and is probably just what you need.  FoxPro has just been reported
to work as well, but I've never used the DOS version, so I'm not sure if it
will import your files or not.  dBASE IV certainly will, though.

Of course, then you have the trouble of it being a DOS program (and fairly
large at that; a couple of megs at minimum) and not being very graphical, or
particularly simple to use, but it is menu driven in addition to the standard
dBASE dot prompt, which makes it a lot easier.

Subject:      Geos\win2.03
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi, I'm looking for some help in terms of adding either geos ensemble or
windows 2.03 to my 2meg 200lx (plus 8meg flash cord).

First question is - is either feasable ?
Is either worthwhile ?
I realize that I need to delete a number of the files from either
system, but with Geos, I appear to be deleting too many and it fails to
boot.
With windows the links I have found to D\L win2.03 all appear to be down
right now.

Could some kind soul pls e-mail me the files i need to get either
running, ie zip your flash drive !!! Also what do I need to add/change
in my autoexec and system startup files etc.


Thanks very much for all the help.
Brian

        I found the same results... Unfortunately, the P200 isn't quite as
portable...
        Anyway, with the right game, the speed might not matter so much... say a
puzzle/strategy type, perhaps.

How will you put them on the A: drive on EXP?! (even with the
LXMDRV loaded! That A: drive is not a storage you can write
into from the regular DOS programs.) if you had a regular
flash card, then you could boot from the A: drive.

I went by there today. I got a brand new 200lx for $254 and change. They did
not have the manual and the box was an old 1meg box. Got an A/C adapter for
$9.80. I am very pleased with myself.....

I just did try...and it worked!  Hats off you to Stefan.

Your documentation just mentions bmp,pcx,gif and jpg format support.

Is the kodak's .img format similar to one of these? Your doc didn't
explicitly mention support for the DC-20.

This will make picture viewing MUCH easier now....thanks!

I have been using Qua!lx (see SUPER page) for a year now without any
problems. However, a week or so ago my ISP changed the version of UQWK on
their UNIX shell. Now the uqwk command creates a 0000000.MSG file instead of
a messages.dat file. I thought a simple rename would bring things back to
normal, but Qua!lx doesn't recognize this format and simply deletes the
file. Does anyone know if Qua!lx could still be used, perhaps by changing a
command?

Thanks

He sounds skeptical that we have many customers who _do_ use
IBMNet, but I beg to differ with him with all due respect. In
our Beta, the first connection was direct connect, then came
CIS, then IBM Net. It has worked ever since. One or fellows
here, Tony Hutchins, uses Ibm Net and it does work for him. He
also set up several other customers straight, sometimes before
I get to them (well he lives in New Zealand and his day begins
when I begin to snore at night! :) I can probably think of at
least 10-15 customers right off the top of my head, and at one
point when I counted, it was many many times that...

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

I can confirm that I am using your product on IBM.net without
difficulty. Unfortunately I don't think I can be much help to your
customer, because the provided script worked for me out of the box, so I
wouldn't know where to begin troubleshooting.

I most frequently use the access # here in San Francisco, but I also
travel with the palmtop and have logged on successfully for both web and
e-mail access in San Diego, LA, Minneapolis, Des Moines, New York, and
Ft. Lauderdale.

I use an EXP flashmodem and a 200lx with speed and memory upgrades.

Hope an answer can be found, as WWW/LX and IBM Global Network have been
a very handy combination for me.

I rarely ever use it for swapping even though its setup for, it much
more than a "Swap" program for me.

I use it for the following reasons:

Change attributes
View and change hidden files
Associate files with programs
Copying and moving multiple files
View file contents
Laplink interface (PC - Palmtop).

BTW: I also have Software Carousel but prefer Dosshell because of the
reasons I stated above.

Also my main use for Software Carousel was for swapping to my phone
book and database while using POST/LX. But since PalEdit (2.1) now has=

database capabilities I no long use it.

I have a related question. For better readability I use helmoon.com on my

least the capital letter H has a small deformation (1 pixel I believe it is)
to the left. As far as I can see helvmoon.com  is an extension to helv.com.
Did anyone else notice such small (but sometimes a bit irritating)
imperfections in PAL fonts?


Can anybody tell, what fonts are used in the HP built-in calculator in the
lower line (larger font) and in other lines above? I'd like to use those
fonts in my own program (I use Borland C and PAL). Is it possible? Are those
fonts built-in or not?

You do have to experiment with the baud rate - I can zip along
most of the time on my desktop at work at 115,600 or whatever
the limit is, but on a Toshiba notebook (at home), I'm doing well to=
 get
37,600 (or whatever).  Most of the time, if it stalls, you're
pushing it too fast.  I've never been able to get it to run
FASTER when it hangs.

What makes you so sure the program locked up and took the hplx with it?
It sounds to me like it is much more likely that your pc has a hardware
problem which caused it lock up while you were running WWW/LX.  Software
isn't magic, it can't curse your pc and put a hex on it.  All it can do
is execute the instructions designed into the machine; the same code as
all the rest of your programs but in different order.

I've tried using this Windows phone list on Windows NT 4.0, but could
not get it to function with my modified phone database. Although, I am
able to run the program and create a new standard database.

Not sure if this in WNT 4.0 specific or not...

Wish I could get it running on my WNT box at work.

Hi:

     EXKey works OK for me. I have the exkey.ini in my c:\_dat. The
line in my autoexec.bat is:

exkey -fc:\_dat\exkey.ini

My exkey.ini looks like this:

{Alt+F3}=3D{Ctr+Alt+z}
{Fn+Phone}=3D{Fn+Copy}{Alt+Phone}

Well, did you try running LapLink 3 or 4 on Dos and Laplink 5 (or later) on 95/NT? I didn't but I'm interested in such a scenario. Maybe I'll try it...

On a different, but related note...has anyone used CPACK on say a Libretto
or PC 110, not as a connectivity tool, but as the main PIM apps?

Just wondered if the CPACK apps were close enough to the LX suite to
alleviate the stress of changing platforms (tho if they were really
successful, they're probably not monitoring this list :( )

Something to think about with the 32mb upgrade looming (and also the WinCE
DOS emulator, XT-CE). The time may come in a year or so, when Win9x
machines like Libretto/PC110 or WinCE machines improve in size and power
usage (compared to the 200LX) to the point where CPACK might serve as a
'transitional' tool...one that would let us use the (as yet non-existent)
machine like a 200LX, but also switchable to Win9x or WinCE.

Just a thought.

The only thing I have tried is running the current laplink that is on
the HP 200LX, and running Laplink 5 on my WNT 4.0 box... didn't work.

I believe the version of laplink on the HP 200LX is 2.{something}. I
don't have access to any other laplink versions for DOS, otherwise I
would try.

Would appreciate hearing of your results should you try.

I haven't run the CPack in a while, but if I'm not mistaken, one is
not able to have multiple apps open at the same time (ie. appt book,
phone, and notes), and switch between them... you have to exit one
before opening the other.

I could be wrong about this as its been awhile.

On the other hand, if this is the case, I suppose one could open up
multiple windows (say on the Libretto), and in each window, run CPack,
but have a different CPack app open, and Alt-Tab between them.

Not sure if it would work or not... I would tend to be careful not to
open any one of the apps in more than one window for fear of possible
data corruption.

Subject:      Survey Results

I received about 10 replies to my query regarding use of HPLX for email
access. Here
is a generalization of the results:
80% HP200LX's (1 HP100, 1 HP700)
5 of HP200LX's are doublespeed
Only 3 responses used an external modem - most used an internal.
Internal Modems Used: MegaHertz:3 , AT&T:1, Simple technologies:1, EXP:1
Software: NetTamer:5,  WWW/LX:2, Post/LX:2, DataComm:1, 1stReader:1

Based on this, I am going to do the following: I don't particularly like
swapping my flashdisk with the modem, and I have an external modem
readily available at my desk, so I will likely use an external modem,
except when traveling. I am going to give NetTamer another try (I didn't
have good luck with the first attempt, but I didn't try that hard.
Customer support was outstanding though, got a nice email with questions
for how to get it working, I just didn't follow through. I wasn't even a
customer yet).

On a related note, I found that DataComm works MUCH better as a terminal
program when WINSI.SYS is not installed. With the winsi.sys driver
installed, it was slow to the point of unusable, but when I rebooted
without it, it worked very well. If you gave up DataComm, that may be
why. As you see, one of the user responses I got was a gentleman who uses
DataComm to access a shell account.

I hope this information is of some use to everyone.

Brian

IMG support in LxPic is a typical 'undocumented feature'.
It is the only one I implemented, don't search for others!
You may guess the reason, why I did it: I own a DC20. The IMG
format is very similar to BMP, I only had to add a few bytes to
recognize the IMG extension and skip the IMG header, which is
completely different from BMP.

I bought a DC20 because it is cheap, small and the battery
seems to last forever. Picture quality is poor. But B&W
representation on the palmtop is also poor, so it fits
together.

IMG file size is not the choice for palmtops (130KB for one
picture). Comparable JPEG file size would only be 1/10 to 1/5.

I did not document IMG support of LxPic, because IMG is a
nonstandard format and I always stated not to implement any
nonstandard formats into LxPic. But I hope, you understand
that I made an exception for myself which will also be
useful for some of you ;-)

So please don't ask me to extend IMG support or to implement
any other digital camera format into LxPic.

Subject:      Software modem for the HP200LX?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Does anybody know of a software modem for DOS? I heard some
WinCE machines have a build in software modem. To my knowledge,
a software modem consists of a very fast serial port software
and a little piece of hardware.

Now I dream:

The little piece of hardware should fit into our 10-pin serial
port plug with a standard telephone outlet on the other side.
The software should allow us to connect at up to 2400 baud.
This would be a perfect traveling modem with low power
consumption and a free PCMCIA slot to download email.

Now I am awake:

If there is any chance to build such a modem for a (double
speed) HP200LX, I'm willing to write the software.

I have got a problem concerning Stacker 4.0.
I suddenly noticed that there are 0 bytes free on my stacked
A: drive. Days before I there were several hundred kb free.
I removed some files and did chkdsk, defrag (with -maxsize) and
check on it without success. Several normal and hard-resets did not
have any effect also. It seems to be ok but free space is too small.
Ok, I could create everything new but that is time consuming and
impossible when travelling without notebook.

Any help appreciated.

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

If this is confusing, maybe somebody more eloquent can explain...

I have APP200 (CPACK) running on my NT 4.0 machine at work. No
problem whatsoever reading my modified PHONE data base. I just tried
to modify my PHONE data base further, by adding a junk field called
JK. It worked just as expected.  I'm surprised at all these reports
of CPACK not working on NT machines.  I've been running it on my NT
machine for almost a year now without any problems, starting with
3.51 then changing to 4.0.

Can you provide any more details?

You have to buy it from HP, as far as I know.  There may be other
companies acting as distributors, however.

Subject:      32Meg RAM upgrade+Ideas for Mack
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I saw the BigGlobe site on Japan, and the 32Meg upgrade is about US$360 converted.
Thaddus is selling theirs for US$500. Can anyone justify the extra US$140?

Anyway, ideas for Mack of T2T.

1.) Since Simpletech 33.6 modem uses some kind of slot-out phone jack for their
modem (and the internals looks like a CompactFlash size), and the Hornet chip can
actually take 2 PCMCIA devices, why not have a special version of the Simpletech
modem EMBEDDED into the HP200LX? I am sure there will be some space above the
PCMCIA slot or somewhere else for a custom version of the modem, and current
modem parts are VERY small, and this would be VERY useful (no need for extra
modem card)

2.) A backlite solution (I heard Mack is developing a backlite which is a total
replacement of the LCD) which uses vampire power (meaning it takes power from the
HP200LX) and is able to be "on-able" by a switch on the LCD corner (notice the grey
plastic outline on the sides of the panel? Could be used for a simple slider/press
switch) or the switch can work like the Pilot kind. Press and hold the On button of the
HP200LX, and after 2-3 seconds, the backlight comes on, and when the system is
pressed off, the light goes off.

3.) A simple camera addon solution? The PC110 and Sharp WinCE v2.0 has a camera
option to take simple pictures. This, in conjunction with the 32Meg RAM upgrade (plus
Stacker, of course. :) ) makes a TRUELY compact DTP system.

4.) Enhancement to battery logic to take 3V Lithium ION batteries. These batteries will
BLOW the 200LX if placed directly (total of 6v and 2000amp) into it. Maybe there can be
a way to make the 200LX accept 6v (stepdown?) Lithium ION Batteries.

5.) Replacement ruggedised casing with G-shock kind of gel protection+waterproofing
of internal Hornet and RAM systems (meaning the 200LX can contact water, but NOT
submerged).

6.) BIOS replacement to DR-DOS or Linux Embedded (ELKS) version?

7.) Addon to screen to make it TOUCHSCREEN based serial mouse?

Think this is what I can see what would be useful now. This would certainly be new
avenues for Mack to venture into for 200LXes as 2x upgrades and memory upgrades
just come so far. There are other things that can be developed for this trusty machine.

Space remaining on a stacked drive is an estimate only - the actual results
depend on the types of files on the drive.  Some compress better than others.

I think he is talking about using a non-standard phone database with the
windows version of the phone book, that came standard with the Omnibook
sub-notebooks.  They will not recognize a non-standard phone book file (at
least, in my experience).

I hear the Thaddeus upgrade includes doubling the speed crystal ... that's
at least $75 accounted for. Other factors may be software drivers that may
be developed for (and delivered with) it and the kind of warranty offered.

Comparing them is probably premature till we know more specifics about
either.

Oh... yes. I see.  I was mis-led my the subject of the message
thread. Yes, I too wish the Omnibook windows version of Phone Book
would recognize my modified data base. OTOH, how about a just plain
windows version of the Data Base application?? That would fulfil
multiple needs, including this one under discussion.

     Opus 63 Design Lab appears to have dissolved.  When I last checked their
website (www.opus63.com), it no longer contained any references to the company
or its products, but had been taken over for promoting a musical group known
as "Jack Black".

     My experience with the company a few years back when I ordered my holster
was somewhat similar.  It was difficult to get anyone to answer the phone to
place an order, but at least I got through while they were still selling them.
The holster is very well made and has held up well to daily wear.

     Sorry, mine's not for sale.

Also, it seems someone uploaded some new files on my ftp site.  see files

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

This response has been somewhat delayed as I wasn't really sure how to
answer your questions.

1. Specific software... sorta.  I'm interested in the software that
would run a PCMCIA video acquisition card... I assume that this would be
a Windows 95 application at this point.. perhaps a WinCE item.

Data acquisition using PCM cards like Keithley MetraByte with Windows 95
software. Again possibly WinCE at some date....


2. Specific software....  Exchange or Outlook ... the only ways to bet
my e-mail under the current system here at my office...alas....I can't
use a POP3 server and must use dial-up networking of Windows 95.


3.  Yes..an expectation that there must be...
I can only assume that major players in the software game will support
and develop WinCE applications. I think that the days for DOS software
development are over, unless you and I do such development....

And for those of us with slightly more up-market DC25 cameras, it also
works!  What a fine chap you are. Speaking of the DC25, I have managed to
put together a *very* basic program to download image files to the HP, =3D
but
pressure of work and other things called a halt to development. I have to
get it better by the fall when I visit the US.

Igor,
The three built-in fonts small, medium and large can be used in programs
written with PAL.  I don't have the exact PAL functions off the top of my
head but they are in the PAL html documentation help files.

The calc bottom line looks larger than the large built-in font to me but
I'm not sure.  The numbers in the upper part of the display look like the
large built-in font.

As a matter of fact, I have installed CPACK on my PC110. I deleted the
Japanese software and installed CPACK on the internal (4meg) Flash Drive. It
is in color and works very well.

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

Best of all, both pieces are free and relatively small (35k-90k) and run
fast on a 2x LX.

Email me if you want specifics.

In case some folks missed it, Apple has announced that they're
discontinuing the whole Newton line. They'll sell off existing inventory
and provide another 120 days (117 now?) of support, and that's it.

So if you're hoping to get a Newton keyboard to use with K Adachi's HP
drivers, the "official" sources will probably dry up soon. All in all, it's
sad news, IMHO. http://www.apple.com/pr/library/1998/feb/27newton.html

But how well does it work as a PIM? Someone else recalls not being
able to jump from app to app (ie, ala More on the LX) without closing
the previous one or by running multiple CPACKs. Seems like this would be
inconvenient for anything but occassional use in entering PIM data.

Well, this has me confused.  I finally dug up this post from the
HP-LX archives, and then went to the SUPER site and read the
referenced article.  It doesn't appear to have anything whatsoever to
do with running the APP200 (CPACK) program from a windowed screen.

Perhaps this capability is a side effect of loading the LLRA driver,
but it certainly wasn't obvious from the article.

Can someone who is running LLRA on a Windows 95 computer please
explain further???

Hi Mack,

meanwhile I got the 8MB-Upgrade w. SpeedKit, well done! (Thanks Thomas
Rundel!) also with the tremm.sys V1.1b (EMM-Driver from Times2Tech). The
Instemm.exe says, that I can install up to 2048 EMS-Pages. I have still 4
mB of RAM free on my c: and tried (like the .doc-file says) to install 100
Pages. I got the error-message: "COULD'NT FIND A FREE BLOCK FOR
EMS-PAGES". I decreased step by step and suceeded finally at 33 Pages! How
can this be? Does anyone know a solution? And, Mack, is it possible to get
an useraccount for downloading new drivers for the emm and
speedupgrad-drivers? As far as I saw, Thomas Rundel has not this support
on his Homepage (sorry, if I'm wrong!).

Thanks a lot, bye,

Axel

To download the drivers, you should mail Mack directly at mack@times2tech.com.
You need to run a disk optimizer on your C: drive to make all the files
contiguous, as it needs one unbroken block of free space for the swap file.
Software Carousel has OPTIMIZE.EXE, and there are other programs available that
will do the job nicely.

Instemm needs to create emm space in contiguous disk space. At 100 pages,
you need to make sure there's 1,702,400 bytes of CONTIGUOUS space.

Most likely your C drive is somewhat fragmented from previous deletes. If
that's the case, you should pack the existing data using one of the
various 'defrag' utilities...or do it the old fashioned way: backup and
reformat the drive, build the emm area (using instemm) and reload all the
other files.

There's no good way (that I know of) to determine your current largest
contiguous space without using a 3rd party utility. Your 33 page success
seems to be saying you have about 1/2 mb of contiguous free space (33 * 16
* 1024 bytes).

I could probably justify the $360 upgrade.  The $500 is a little steep for
      me.
Not saying that others wouldn't get over $500 in value for this
improvement.
Hope the price reduces.  I saw the HP620LX and was unimpressed,
except that the color display was great.

I assume that the former version, prob 1.8 or 1.7, created QWK formatted
files by default (message.dat).  The new version 2.x of uqwk probably
creates SOUP packets by default (0000000.MSG).

Use the -L switch when running uqwk.

For example, if you have a script file that creates the uqwk, then edit it
so that the uqwk call now uses the -L switch.

Probably something like:

exec uqwk -f <file>=20

to=20

exec uqwk -L -f <file>



----=20

GPSCGA works well on the palmtop, and is shareware.  LXGPS is freeware.=

Both can do moving map displays, but you have to create the map and
calibrate it yourself.

Greetings,

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

Respectfully,

Colin

Thank you for your replies !

I think I did not point out my problem precisely, I am afraid.

More or less suddenly (I did not work with the machine for a few
days) I was faced with zero bytes free on my stacked drive, with
hardly any files being added or deleted on it. Moreover I deleted two
folders to free space. After that I got free space but only enough to
copy _one_ folder back. Space was simply gone. There was much to less
space for the second.

In the meantime I ran check /d and it showed up
no errors and a compression ratio of 1.4:1 and a degree of
fragmentation of 0% (I ran defrag several times).

I am lost... I guess I have to reinstall the whole stacker drive and
- more important - have to accept that 0 bytes free on a journey is
impossible to cure :-(

Regards,
Christof

Hello!

Sure, I know how to use those 3 built-in fonts. But look, what have I found:
- "Reg(0) = " is written using the medium font;
- numbers in the upper part are written using the large font;
- the bootom line is really larger than the large built-in font.

I'd like to know how to write those larger characters in the bottom line. If
you can suggest, if anybody can suggest, I'd be very grateful.

Thank you.

Yours ever, Igor Grabelnikov

Subject:      Stacker 3.0, is it effective?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hi,

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

Rob

Hmmm,  I had the same thing happen to me to.

Chkdsk shows 17752064 bytes free

I had also ran out of space and had to delete a few megs of programs on a

anyone have any ideas?

Subject:      Power for PC cards

Do PC cards need more battery power as they age or get older?

My 200 LX has been giving me "Esc - low main battery warning" when I turn
it on at alkaline battery levels of 2.62 and with buddy and filer showing
the battery to be 3/4 full.  Since this did not happen with my older 100LX
I thought there might be something wrong with the LX itself.

Today I ignored the warnings for a while and when I tried to turn the LX
on, it would flash on and immediately shut itself off.  With the LX off, I
then, on a hunch, removed my 3 year old stacked "DoubleFlash Plus" card
and now the LX turned on and ran just fine.  It would not however do so
when I re-inserted the flash card.

When I put in new batteries, everything was fine again.
................................................................................................
So it seems as if my 200 LX needs an extra-ordinary amount of battery
power to run with the stacked 10MB card in.  Could this be due to the card
needing more energy than it used to - because it is getting older, or the
connection in the newer 200 LX is different or defective?

Is there any way to test this or assess how much power the card is
needing?  Does the fact that the card is almost full or older make a
difference?

Thanks.

Jeff

Well, here is another lecture on the "Promise" of compression,
offered by stacker/doublespace/jam et al.

If one is putting a lot of executable files (*.exe & *.com) on
the compressed volume, there will be a definite pursing of lips
as the reported space simply vanishes!

Compression utilities work on a "Projected" average of possible
efficiency hoping that a lot of the files will be text or
spreadsheets. These have large areas of their structure totally
empty, but reserved. This means they compress well, some WFW
files can bo to 1/16th of the initial size, but executable code
is by nature dense and has very little "slack space" to compress.

Picture files, too, often have their own internal compression
routine, so do not compress at all.

Unfortunately, the size of your card also works against you, as
it is all to easy to fill as you have found.

i have two 5meg SanDisk cards (highly recommended!) and two
1.8meg Casio cards. i have experimented with stacker and do not
run it because of the overhead in memory, the loss/assignation of
drive letters, and the lack of stability of the machine under
repetitive reboots. i do a lot of software evaluation and need a
machine that can be hard restarted over and over without having
to worry about loading a special driver to access all my files.

On the other side of the coin, there are plenty of people out
there that use compression and have never (touch wood!) had a
heart-stopping moment...

imho, there is nothing like size! Beg, borrow, ste** the
necessary to get the biggest card you can! i am saving at the
moment for something like 40-45megs as i can put everything i use
in that space with room for data.

My list of programs goes like this:

XTree Gold          Essential!           .5-2.0meg
Fast Lynx 2.0       Essential!           .1meg

At one time, I had NetHack (real mode)running under Maxdos on my single-speed
200LX.  If I remember correctly, it was on my flash card, and ran pretty
decently.  But it did take about 2 minutes to load.

I have since stuck with Rogue 'cause it's smaller and faster.

Hi Peder:

     Did you receive my request for the "32mB Newsletter" ? I had also
requested info on pricing for an upgrade of my 2x 8mB(T2T) machine to
32mB.

Thanks!

All,

I recently purchased the Ultima Collection on CD which has all the Ultima
Games currently available on a single CD.  $29.   Exodus Ultima 3 takes up
about 230k and is CGA without sound card support. It works great on my
100lx, and looks good on its screen as well.

The game is set in the world of sosaria where your party of 4 adventurers
travel the continent, visit a number of cities (all in top view navigation)
and journey into dungeons (in 3d.)  The storyline develops as the game
progresses. I played this years ago on a C64 and its definitely addictive.

Thought with all the messages about hack / nethack etc. that this may be of
interest.  The combat system is turn based with your party of 4 adventurers
each getting an action in turn where they can attack with swords or ranged
weapons, cast spells to harm their enemies or to heal / cure other party
members.

Its been a blast so far.  Yet another reason my HP never leaves my side.
Nothing like an ongoing RPG that i can play whenever i have a few moments
then just turn off whereever i happen to be until later. :)

I also used to run Bard's Tale I on the LX... Matter of fact, I think I'll have
to dig it up when I get home.... It's been a long time since I played that
game.  It's truly amazing what the 200LX can do... Which is why is switched
*back* to it from the 320.  (I have been through the following PDA cycle: HP95
-> HP100 -> Zoomer(a fiasco) -> HP100 -> HPOmnigo100(another oopsie) -> HP100
-> HP200 -> HP320 -> HP200.  I think a pattern has developed... :)

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

        Speaking of RPG's... I always loved the old SSI D&D games such as Curse of
the Azure Bonds, Secret of the Silver Blades, Dark Queen of Krynn, etc.
Does anyone know if any of the older ones might work on the HP (and of so,
wher e to get a hold of a copy)?

        Ah... another great title I have been looking for for my little machine...
I never played the original much but know it was very nice, and it seems
like it would be perfect for the HP.

I've finally succeeded in getting my 200LX to work with an ethernet card
to connect to an FTP server.  However, I want to be able to make backups
with it, and in order to do that I'd have to be able to send the whole C:
drive, recursed into the subdirectories.  Does anybody have any info on
how to do this or a DOS ftp client that might work?  (I'd prefer not to
have to zip the whole drive up into a big zip file first either.)

I've mailed Mack and Thaddeus, but have not had a reply from Mack, and
peder_sweeney at Thaddeus passed me on to someone else who also does
not reply to email.

If you are a 32MB vendor reading this, then you have a customer ready
to have his HP200LX SG5* DoubleSpeed 1MB+4MB upgraded to 32MB
immediately.

Please email me if you can provide this upgrade to me.  I will be
reading email every day I am travelling.

Subject:      TECH : Stacker and unstacked portion
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi, on my hp200lx, I have a flash card which is partially stacked with
Stacker 3.0. On the unstacked portion, I have some programs which are just
too slow on the stacked part. Does anyone know how to make both the stacked
and unstacked portion of the card visible/available at the same time ?

When I have stacker activated, an F drive appears, but I cannot access it.
I have thought about partitioning the flash card, but fdisk100 does not
appear to allow this to be done. I copied fdisk (DOS 5.0) and tried that
but it does not recognise any of the 'disks' as fixed and quits.

At the moment, I have a script file which goes to DOS, switches off
stacker, runs the program I want. When it is done, it reverses this
procedure.

Does anyone have any experience/answers to this ? Ideally, to have the
unstacked portion appear as a separate drive (and I have lastdrive set to Z).

TIA

David BIRD

P.S. thanks to those who answered my wced query last week. I now have
it running successfully on my PT.

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

Help!

I am still attempting to get Post/LX running properly.  This has been an
ongoing process for some considerable time now, I'm due to take a
business trip very shortly, and I need to be able to get mail.

DAsoft says that I should be using a CHAP script, but if I do, When I
try to run either WWWLX or Post/LX, both programs will go as far as--

dialing
negotiating LCP... done
authentication... done
negotiating IPCP... done
PCP connection established

After this WWWLX locks the machine to where I must remove the batts and
reinstall every bit of software over.  Post/LX will churn for a while,
say 3-5 minutes, then give me a message "started Laplink Remote Access"
and some other such.  Never will actually do anything useful.  I have to
do a "hard" reset to get out of this, but dont have to reinstall
software.

I kind of see the CHAP script as less than desirable to use, at this
juncture...

If I use the ISP_PPP script and lengthen the wait times to 15-25, WWWLX
will run fine.  Can surf the net, all is well.  If I dont try to change
the Post/LX setup, can receive email, but not send, because my folder is
not yet set up right, I think.  If I go into the setup, (to tell Post/Lx
where my outgoing folder will be, etc.) then the program will get to the
point where it says "negotiating IPCP" then give me an "aborting, could
not establish connection" message and exit to the reader.

The POP3 and SMPT addresses, user name, password, and email address are
all correct.

I R dazed, confused, etc...

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It has been a while but isn't the @ sign in the config.sys line to replace
a drive. If you currently have

device=stacker.com @a:stacvol.dsk

and you remove the @ then you will have two drives, A: will be the
unstacked part and some other letter (e or f?) will be the stacked part.
This was how it worked in one of the versions of stacker I used but I used
several different versions so I won't swear to anything. :-)

I was reading the posts about the use of tremm earlier today and it's kinda

set-up instructions that come in the doccumentation, even though I have
approximately 4MB free on my C: drive. I never really thought about my ram
disk becoming fragmented. I do download a lot of stuff to my palmtop and
then find myself deleting it shortly thereafter. Can someone recommend a
good program to defrag it so I can try to reinstall tremm. Is there any good
freeware which will do the trick?

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

I would surmise your poor, abused, HP's crystal and/or cpu freq's became a bit
irregular as the voltage dropped out of spec--would explain all of the
symptoms you describe.  Some batteries can drop real fast--once they start to
go, they brickwall and you be done.  Thank your favorite deity you didn't lose
anything.

I had a crash and lost 1.5 months of notes, corrupted my phonebook, and
corrupted 1.5 YEARS of quicken data - most of which was, of course, not backed
up.  (BTW - I will ask again if anyone has a solution for a corrupted Pocket
Quicken file - the data are there, but the header (most likely) is dinged)

HALP!

Goin' Postal is my baby.  It's pretty functional, but there are still
a number of feature yet to be completed (thus the 0.0xalpha versions)

Jeff is my only alpha test site.  He's giving it a good workout, finding
the occasional bug, and doing a very excellent job checking the user
interface (considering that there is zero documentation in his hands!)

If the list doesn't mind then it's ok with me if he posts a bit of
information and his feelings about the program, what it does and such.
He's in a bit more of an objective position than me (and I don't
wish to toot my own horn about a not-yet-available product).  Basically
I've tried to make it user-friendly, support some traveller-friendly
features I've missed in other mailers (including Eudora), and most
important: make it fit a 1mb LX with room to spare.  Jeff can give
you his feelings on how well these targets are being met so far (with
the lists permission of course).

Please don't ask a release date, it depends on how long it takes me
to complete the documentation and the unfinished features in the
POP implementation.

        Like I said, I've popped out the batteries for a cold reboot many times so
far without problems.  I also just backed up my palmtop yesterday, after
reading about many tales of lost data and deciding I've pressed my luck far
enough already...

Steven,

Have you looked at LXPPP (see my web page for details) ?  It's got a
POP implementation that works with PNR (Palmtop News Reader).

It might be interesting to you to see what a "competing" (as far as
free software that includes source code can be competing)
implementation provides.

Will you be releasing source code for your program ?  If you do, let
me know and I'll add you to the LX source code hall of fame.

Subject:      Speed up database apps on HP200LX.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

This is a followup to a previous post I made within the past 1.5 weeks
regarding my slow access to my database apps.

For those who are interested, I found and tried a utility on SUPER
called FASTDB that supposedly attempts to speed data manipulation
actions.

My opinion... it works great. My new entries or modified entries into
my database apps used to take up near 8 seconds per save... now they
are at about 2 seconds!

You can read the accompanying doc file for more info, but in general
it works by preventing the file from defraging itself on every
database write action, thus the file will grow quite large during its
current use... but the file will ultimately defrag and shrink once
closed, which I do every so often for safety sake.

Just thought some may want to know.

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

I once used DOG (Disk OrGanizer) which was shareware (I think....been a
long time and could have been freeware). I use Norton's Speed Disk now.

You may be able to use DEFRAG which is an old version of Norton packaged
with DOS 6.x.

Qman,   A favor deserves another :)

You want to load INTERLNK in CONFIG.SYS in Desktop!

Intersvr runs fine on palmtop. Making the Desktop a server of
files, gives you the dubitable pleasure of waiting amazing
amounts of time while Filer on the Palmtop chokes on Gigabyte
size hard disks on the Desktop :)

So, In CONFIG.SYS in Desktop: Add a line:

device=3Dinterlnk.exe /baud=3D115200 (which I believe is default
anyway.

In palmtop I run the following batch file named SERVER.BAT:

  echo off
  a:
  d\utils
  SUBST e: a:\           <<--- Required, since INTERSVR wants E:
  REM ---=EBTurn off the shutdown timer in LX
  a:\utils\timeout d > nul
  REM --- Run INTERSVR, /b=3Db&w display,
  REM --- address drives A: C: D: on the LX as
  REM ---          ----> G: H: I: from the Desktop.
  a:\utils\intersvr.exe a: c: d: /b /v /baud:115200
  REM --- Restore shutdown timer on LX
  a:\utils\timeout s75 > nul
  SUBST e: /D
  echo on

The timeout defeats the tendency of palmtop to fall asleep on
the job.

That's it.

I rather doubt that the program trashed you computer. I
suspect that it froze for other reasons. You could, you know,
avail yourself to the support we offer, before you jump out
there and lay the blame at the door of the program. But then
again, maybe you would not! I would not know.

You may have locked up on lack of memory. If you ran it in
system manager, you may have had another application or two
open, leaving just enough for WWW/LX to get in and die, and
not even be able to get out. The particular component that
freezes on you is System Manager, not WWW/LX.

The design of the hardware, software and operating system is
out of your hands, and out of our hands, so there is nothing
to accept, or not accept, it is more like a given.

I take exception to your assertion that the program behaves
poorly. It has well known limitations, and it crashes under
constraints like any other program, including Windows 95,
W/NT etc.

What piece of shareware are you talking about?

Hi Longden,

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

Bye, Axel

This is true only if you depend on Filer... DOS commands work as fast as

The utility of running interlnk on the LX (on occassions), is when the
desktop belongs to someone else and they don't want you to foul-up (er, I
mean modify) their boot setups. Then running intersvr from the command
line on the desktop and booting the LX with interlnk is your other option
(aside from using Datacomm/Zmodem).=20

I add the parameters:
=09/com:1 /noprinter

otherwise interlnk sends a polling signal to all 'com' and 'lpt' ports to
look for a connection and this sometimes foul up other serial devices
and/or printers.

What is the "d\utils" on the 2nd line for? A typo?

I run "timeout ld" which disables light sleep. "timeout d" just disables
the display timeout. What's the relationship between light-sleep and
screen timeout?

Also, if you normally run your LX with "com1 port power in DOS: off", you
may need to add the serctl command. Following is what I use:

@echo off
timeout ld
rem select wired channel for com1 and then start intersvr
d:\bin\serctl /w
a:\msdos\intersvr.exe /baud:115200 /com:1 /b
d:\bin\serctl /o

I'm using Norton Utilities 4.5, and at least that version of SpeedDisk
works.

That may be, I've never tried it myself. It just looked DOS'ish so I
thought it might work.

As You could read on the list that OPTIMIZE, a tool included in

Yes OPTIMIZE is one of the grand-daddys of defraggers. DOG (dog316.zip)
appears to be available at Simtel (as of this minute at least). Search the
MS-DOS area for that filename. I've never used this updated version, so I
won't comment anymore on it.

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

Also, For you programmers, a copy of some little SDK for LHAPI-EXM
programming was put on my ftp dir too.  Called LX_SDL or something.  Check
it out.  It looks cool, if you understand C and C++.

Hi all,

I have to make a
correction, the DRDos-Defragmenter is not named OPTIMIZE, it's DISKOPT.

Hi:

     Does anyone know of a utility to CUT/PASTE between Software

     DOSClip only works bewteen SysMgr Apps & DOSShell.

Any Ideas?

Cut and paste to a simple file, ie "\a.txt", jump to another shell, read
the file back and paste it. Clunky, but simple.

You could also load an old TSR like Sidekick before SC and kick it up
anywhere, but then you still wouldn't really be using the cut-and-paste
buffer (just the Sidekick notepad)...and you'd be giving up alot of memory
to boot.

Sorry I don't have anything more elegant.

I've been playing with the key200 program to remap some keys and wondered
if anyone has a set of keymaps they found useful (that I might not have
thought of yet).

So far, I've remapped the following:

1) Memo starts NoteTaker (cuz I use it a lot more than Memo)
2) Ctrl-Memo starts Memo
3) Right-shift End      ; like Ctrl-Fn-End, but only 2 fingers needed
4) Right-shift Home     ; like Ctrl-Fn-Home, but "      "

and I was about to add:

5) Left-shift End       ; like Shift-Ctrl-Fn-End to select to the bottom
6) Left-shift Home      ; like Shift-Ctrl-Fn-Home to select to the top

Anyone has other useful remaps?

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

David, i tried to achieve this for quite sometime (w/stacker 3 & 4)
and have determined after countless unsuccessful attempts that it
cannot be done with a drive letter other tnan 'c'! Mind you i haven't

Subject:      Goin' Postal Mailer

Since I have been cleared to discuss the Goin' Postal email program by it's
author (Mr. Steve Lawson), here's my take on this nifty little mailer:

1) It is an extremely small, and easy to use program.

2) It provides for more than one mail host, which is great for someone like
   me who has two or three POP3 mail accounts on different servers.

3) The user interface is extremely "user friendly" and highly intuitive to
   use.

4) It currently supports the sending of attachments and the ability to
   decode .uue attachments. I also think that by the time it is available
   commercially it will do BASE64 decoding. The decoding does _not_
   require any additional software other than the email program itself.

5) It allows one to start writing an email, then save it and come back later
   to finish the particular email. This is quite handy for someone like me
   who is constantly getting interrupted.

6) The software allows you to attach a signature file (as you can see
   below).

7) Since the software allows more than one mail host, you can have more than
   one configuration for outgoing mail, i.e. return address, name, etc..

Although the software is in it's alpha state, it has matured into a very,
stable little set-up. I just learned this morning of some other neat
features which are going to be incorporated into the next version and I
suspect that it won't be too long before the software is released as
shareware. I think the advantage, for someone like myself, of this email
program versus the LXPPP set-up is the ease of configuration and how the
software handles the setting up of the packet driver. Basically, if you know
what number you dial into, the name of your POP & SMTP hosts, your login
name and password you can have it up and running in just a few minutes.

I have found a few quirks in helping Steve test the software as has he and
as of this latest alpha version everything works just like it should :-) I
really like this little program and I think that's the key, "little". It'll
run on a 1MB 100LX from an icon in App Manager without having to Terminate,
All Applictions. Stay tuned... I'm sure it won't be long before Steve
releases it to the masses :)

Anyone had the same problem, more interesting, does anyone know what=

Is the crystal bad, or did I blow my oscilator?

I have a version of Speedisk from an old copy of Norton Desktop for
Windows, circa 1992, that runs well on the palmtop.  There is no version

Let's add Wasteland to the list of great RPGs. Wasteland is set in the
Nevada desert after a nuclear war. Instead of Wizards and Ogres you fight
Mutants and robots :-)

The only problem with Wasteland is that a lot of the game's plot was
stored in paragraphs in the manual. Thus you may see messages such as
"Read paragraph 3". This is annoying since you need to have the paragraphs
on the LX (or have the original manual) and quit the game, read the
paragraph, and reenter. Even better would be to swap out of the game (SC
or similar program), read the paragraph and swap back again. I don't know
if swapping is possible, though.

I think this holds true for Bard's tale as well.


Cheers,

Laust

Subject:      Little text viewers...

i can not remember if i suggested this the last time we were all
discussing text editors and viewers, so here it is again?

i usually beat my XTree Gold drum as it has the most excellent
browser for a directory/drive full of *.txt & *.doc files, but
lately i have been using good old built-in Lotus 123 with the
Viewer add-in that comes with the full desktop install of version
2.4 and later.

The advantage of viewer is it will look into files much faster
than Memo can load them and even faster than F8 in Filer and
skipping from file to file is childs-play.

Putting the files:

viewer.adn
viewer.txt
viewer.sym
viewer.123

into the default directory that 123 looks in (where the file
123.cnf is kept) and loading it will allow you to browse *.txt
(as well as *.w* files) and see a decent amount in each file with
the arrow keys skipping from file to file and drive/directory to
drive/directory until you find the one you want.

As 123 is sysmanager based, you can have it open as a browser and
have Memo also open to read in the file you seek.

Mime-Version: 1.0

I've been asked by Martin Paul, owner of palmtop.com, to relay this message to
the list:
Palmtop.com is still alive and well.  Martin's willing to supply email service
to all palmtoppers *FOR FREE*.  Yes, that's Zero Cost!  He says that espmail
(the parent service of palmtop.com) is doing fine from providing ccmail ->
internet services for corporations, and he'd love to have palmtoppers use the
palmtop.com service, since it's established, and it wasn't a big moneymaker
anyway.

To sign up for service:
Go to the web page http://www.espmail.com/palmtop.htm.  He'd like everyone to
know that for free, he can't maintain the 800 number service, and the fax
gateway service has been defunct for some time, but if you want/need email on
the palmtop without taking up valuable RAM for programs, palmtop.com works
great!  This message was sent from there... I just have Martin put a reply-to
on my normal POP mail.

The downside to palmtop.com is that if you're not local to the Silicon Valley,
CA area, then it's a long-distance phone call from your location.  However, it
is free... You be the judge!

This wasn't meant to go postal on Goin' Postal... I think the LX has needed a
tiny, efficent POP mailer for a LONG time now...one that does nothing but
send/receive mail.

Anyway, enjoy having the most flexible palmtop around!

I set up Key200 to allow me to use Menu+(most of the letters on the left
side of the keyboard) in place of Alt+letter so that I can jump to menus
or fields quickly without having to stretch my right thumb over to the
left side of the keyboard to hit the letter while my left thumb presses
Alt.  This way, my right thumb holds Menu and my left thumb presses the
letter.

By the way, how did you specify right-shift versus left-shift?  I couldn't
find any examples of this in the Key200 docs.

Subject:      ANOTHER use for LXSTAT
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Well, I keep finding more and more uses for the LXSTAT utility...
If you're like me, you run lots of old DOS games that don't allow you to
exit the program without a hard reboot.  Well, this always messes up my
NiCad battery setting as well as my preferred contrast setting.  I now
have an LXSTAT line in my AUTOEXEC.BAT file to correct this:
lxstat N D C 17

N changes the battery setting to NiCads; D C 17 changes display contrast
to 17 (scale from 1-31, I think).

I also use LXSTAT in batch files before I run games which do not allow you
to turn off the sound effects/music.  Ex:
lxstat v 0   - turns off speaker
game.exe
lxstat v 1   - turns speaker back on to low volume (1-3 scale)

If you don't have it, LXSTAT is freeware available from eddie.mit.edu at:
ftp://eddie.mit.edu/pub/hp95lx/NEW/lxstat.zip

The viewer.sym file is only needed if you will be looking at Lotus
Symphony files.  Otherwise, you can delete it.  Just savin' you a little
space on your C: drive.  :)
I recently transferred the 123 viewer to my LX as well.  It's nice and
fast.  Also note that you can have 123 auto-attach the viewer add-in.  Go

I use Compress from my PCTools v4.6 Deluxe (original). It works just fine
on the LX. I run Compress regularly - not because it is really needed, but
out of old habit/boredom :-)

Subject:      Speeding up Disk access - an idea?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

I've been wondering...

Wouldn't it be possible to speed up disk access on the HP by installing a
disk-cache? I think it should work and since most cache-programs can use
EMS, little conventional memory need to be used. It should even speed up
access to the ram drive a little, since EMS is faster than disk access
(even though it is the same RAM).

A possible danger is that you remove your flash-card before everything is
written. However, most programs have a switch to force writing, so you
could just use that.

So, has anyone tried to do this? Will it work?


Regards,

Laust

On the last round of messages, I saw a few references to defragmenting
an HP palmtop. I'm wondering if it makes sense to do this on a flash
card.  On a disk, yes, it is good to have all the blocks in a file
adjacent to each other so you don't have to waste time moving the disk
heads around.

However, flash memory has no heads, nothing moves, and is solid-state.
So I assume that access time to a given block is fixed and not changed
by whatever block was referenced just before it.  Am I wrong on this, is
this not how flash cards work?

You're correct. But you've missed the item that started the thread.

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

We were all chiming in with suggestions, since there's no simple way
in DOS to do this aside from re-formatting the drive and starting with
a clean disk.

I have a Nokia 2110 GSM hooked into my 200LX 4Mb with the Psion GSM
PCMCIA card. (Note: that card has GSM _only_, not analog or other modems
on the card as that would draw too much current.)

You cannot use your EXP modem for the GSM phone as the technology is
incompatible (GSM is purely digital, a modem is made for digital comm
over analog lines).

I you have more questions (I had some problems dialing EUnet traveller
with Mobistar) - please contact me directly. I speak Dutch, too (but too
little French).

For anyone else: I have a list of Psion GSM cards and their power-rating
that was sent to me from Dacom (Psion). If you want it... drop me a
line.

In a message dated 98-03-04 19:14:25 EST, you write:

<<  I saw a few references to defragmenting
 an HP palmtop. I'm wondering if it makes sense to do this on a flash
 card.  >>

Actually, I have run a defrag utility on my 20/40 meg PC-Card and I believe it
does make sense.  The program I use is optimize.exe (69.2 kb) which came with
Software Carousel. It is fast and works very similar to the Norton and MS
defrag utilities which you are familiar with.  Remember, even though WE know
that the PC-Card is not the same as a regular Hard Drive with spinning silicon
disks and and read/write head, DOS is pretty ignorant to this fact. It treats
the storage medium the same way as far as clusters, reading, writing,
deleting...etc. Over a long period of time, files do get fragmented all over
the place.

I suppose if your flash card is not as large as mine, then the optimization
may not be noticable. I'm a little anal when it comes to my computer, so I
like to keep things as need and orderly as possible and 40 megs of flash RAM
gets a little too messy for my tastes every couple of months.

I just received a previously-owned XJ2144 modem in the mail and plugged it in.
 I have cic100 running from my autoexec.bat but I can't get it to work.

Datacomm seems to be configured okay.  I set the modem init to ATDT and put a
phone number in the proper place.  But when I push F10 to connect, I hear a
click and then shortly get a message box saying that I'm not connected.

Is there some other kind of configuration or driver that I need to deal with
to get this working?

Thanks a bunch!

You can set-up the password so that it is only activated when you turn off the unit by
holding down İON/OFF¨ and hitting İENTER¨.

The password only protects the data in system RAM.  Data in card RAM can be read by
simply moving the card to another unit.

The password can be bypassed by simply removing all the batteries and erasing all data
on C: drive.  This makes the unit available use, but the data you had stored on C: is
gone.  All data on A: is still available.

I've used it in the past. I'm not sure how solid it is. I suppose if it was
known where the password was stored (what file) then the HPCRACK utility
posted by someone on this list to the SUPER site might be able to crack it.

As far as I can remember, you have to re-enter the password each time you
power on. You also have to type it in after a reboot from your topcard.

        Actually, two of these programs can indeed be located on the net... a very
useful site for this type of thing is FTPSearch (http://ftpsearch.ntnu.no).
 For convenient, here's links to the search results for each program:

        dog316.zip      50k     Disk OrGanizer

mdom=&limpath=&f1=Count&f2=Mode&f3=Size&f4=Date&f5=Host&f6=Path&header=none&
sort=date&trlen=20

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

You can use a disk optimizer or do what I did. I backed up my c: drive
to a flash card and erased all the files. That makes the whole drive
contiguous. You can create your swap file to any size and put your
backed up files back.

Note:
Verify the backup.... twice!

When the HP reports a low battery it's not kidding. When I get this
message I usually don't use the unit until I can jack it in for power.
You're lucky it didn't get wiped. Sometimes when it gets low on
batteries it will complete wipe the c: drive and start all over as if
the unit is new.

If you run key200 without any parameters (assuming it's not already
loaded), key200 will display a keyboard map (a very nice one) with the
names of the appropriate keys.

I just installed SC on my palmtop (great program!), and I ran
optimize as part of the installation process on my C: drive.  I
wonder about running it on my compressed (Stacker, 30/60MB unit)
FLASH-RAM A: drive.  You seem to do so without remorse.  I am a bit
worried about doing this on a compressed volume - probably because I
am ignorant of the exact details of how Stacker works.  (I'm pretty
comfortable understanding the defrag operation).

Any additional reports/comments on defragmenting a compressed FLASH
volume would be appreciated.

Thanks for the heads-up. I pretty much don't use any other utilities
on my HP much less DBCALC. Hopefully there aren't any other side
effects when using this program... especially one's I could find out
the hard way.

I tried loading cpack onto my WNT 4.0 machine. It seems that when I
execute the app200.bat file, there is some reason that it will not run
in a window (ie. it has to be run in a full screen mode, otherwise the
process will be "frozen"). It will also not multitask in the background.

I kinda wish I could run multiple instances, and have each running a
different app (ie. appt manager, phone, and filer).

If anyone knows how to get this running in a regular window while
multitasking, I'd love to know.

Chris go to the stacker home page and ask them..  They will be able to
advise appropriately I think..

I did a speedisk(nortons 5.0) on a jam file and it worked ok..  Followed the
instructions step by step...  I made VERY sure of backup first though..

If you have the space and a PCMCIA slot in a laptop or can borrow the space
for an hour..ie 60 meg+  copy to the laptop..You'll need to back u anyway to
be careful first time.. Wipe files..then Copy back. It will prob be faster
than defragging on the palmtop..

Yes, files will get fragmented.  However, it doesn't matter that
they are fragmented, because there is no difference in overhead or speed
when reading blocks from a file that are adjacent, as opposed to reading
blocks that are scattered all over the flash card.  It's like there is
no difference in total access time when reading locations 1-5 from RAM
versus reading locations 1,93,12,142,44 (five arbitrary locations).

As a few others pointed out for me (thanks Cavendish and Longden!)
it does make sense for an EMS driver to want contiguous blocks.  It
bypasses the FAT file system to avoid the overhead of using it, i.e.
accessing directories, following free block list pointers, etc.
It accesses the flash (or disk) directly.

not at all! Laplink Pro and Laplink Remote Access are two
completely different products. They share in common a word in
the name, and the company that made both products. Otherwise
Llpro and Llra are about as compatible with each other as
AutoCad and the palmtop Phonebook! (yes, zero connection!)

I created the helvmoon. Well, at least the part of it which
has 4 characters that correspond to the moon phases. As far as
I know these were the only four characters in the set. I am
not sure where the other stuff was added, but it may be the
original built-in font.

In any case, I have no specific knowledge that that was use in
Pal library.

I think what you see is the effect stacker has on the disk. It
fools the system to believe it has _expected_ space, not real
space. If you tell stacker to compress, and you expect the
data to compress say 3-to-1, i.e. store 30mb on a 10mb stacked
device, then chkdsk will think it has 30mb. Check knows the
truth.

Neither is a good indication.

Chkdsk is fooled. Check gives the current condition. But:
Let's say you have 1MB left. and you think, oh good I can
store 3:1, i.e. a 3mb file there. But let's say it is a large
GIF. That will compress IN REALITY only by 1-2% to say 2.7mb.
so there will not be room for it, even though you _tol_
stacker to compress 3:1!

It is a case of slight miunderstanding: What you tell stacker
is one thing, what it can do for you is another. Some data
compresses well ("it is full of air") as spreadsheets. Other
data does not compress at all! Stacker will do what it can for
you.

You can also have tough situations that are confusing: Filer
reports say 3mb (really only 1mb for real in our example). You
copy some files in, and boom! you run out of space in what
seems to be premature time! Not so... It depends what you move
in! If it is executables, they compress very little, and the
compression ratio is closer to 1:1 than 1:3. OTOH,
spreadsheets you can move and move and move, and the space
seems to be unending :)....

Good luck.

Excellent point! I have several such situations, and I usually

I do not want the cpu to run full blast, it wears batteries
down. But When the screen times out comm stops. When the cpu
slows and then gets new work it accelerates again.

As long as you remember to enable light sleep again that is
fine, but if you don't the batteries go flat soon. With this
setting I get cpu when I need it.

If I recall, DOS 6.22 had a dir /c command that would give you the
compression ratio for the files you did the dir on, and also the overall
for those files.  Does Stacker have anything like that?  I'd like to find
out the average compression for things like NoteTaker files, databases,
phone books, Pocket Quicken files, etc.

Dave,
Use the SDIR command with stacker.  It's got all kinds of options on reporting
compression ratios for files or directories.

Hi,

I was wondering if someone has IR drivers for DOS on the HPLX200.
Does the HPLX200 Developer kit (is it still available btw? and where?)
gives some hints on how to use the IR port from dos?
Are the IR emitter and reciever connected to an UART?

Any info is more than appreciated.

For anyone who's interested in using the Accton PCMCIA card to do backups
to a desktop, I've figured out a way to do it.  This is excellent for
backing up a 32MB C: drive, since $89 for a PCMCIA Ethernet card is a lot
less expensive than a 32MB flash card and a desktop card reader.

If anyone is interested, I'll post details on the configuration.

Actually defragging, via sdefrag (which came with Stacker) or Speedisk, is
quite fast on the palmtop.  Much faster than transferring 60 mb of files
back and forth even via 115,000 or whatever that speed is.  Defragging on
the palmtop is much faster than on a normal hard drive.  At least, that's
been my experience.

If that's the case, then why do you get errors that only chkdsk can fix?
Perhaps it isn't related to how fast the drive runs, but maybe there are
other reasons to have the disk defragmented.

With respect to the AUTOEXEC.BAT example above, on line four, if you set
in your CONFIG.SYS the environment setting LASTDRIVE=G intersvr will
begin it's drive assignment after the "last drive" specified in the
config.sys.  I don't have the instructions for interlnk/intersvr right
here in front of me, but I'm sure that this or at least a switch on the
interlnk configuration line (config.sys) will allow you to "start" the
remote drive list after a set drive letter.

Hi

If anyone can shed some light on the questions below I would appreciate it.

What is the approximate pricing of a 200LX in 1/2/4/8/32 MB configs with no
tradein?

Is there a 95LX equivalent to GDBIO for import/export to the database etc?

Where can 95LX list and/or programs be found?

I use an 8meg Doublespeed 200LX (great!) and never used a 95LX  A friend
asked me what the major benefits of upgrading are? If you have used both
would you please advise?

As an aside Nortons SI (NU 5.0) reports the CPU on my doublespeed as an
80188 12 Mhz Same speed as a 286/8Mhz.. I recall the processor in the single
speed is supposed to be 80186. Has the processor been changed or is SI
fooled?  Any comments?

Thanks

Russell

A not-so-quick, but also no-so-needing-any-additional-software method to
defrag the storage on your palmtop is to use the CHKDSK command to
display any (all) of the files that are fragmented in the specified
directory.  Then by simply copying the file to a new "location" you can
defrag that file.

example:

d:\dos\CHKDSK c:\_dat\*.*

result:

   7681024 bytes total disk space
   <snip><snip>
    651264 total bytes memory
     95248 bytes free

C:\_DAT\APPT.ADB Contains 3 non-contiguous blocks
C:\_DAT\PHONE.PDB Contains 2 non-contiguous blocks
C:\_DAT\SITELOG.NDB Contains 2 non-contiguous blocks

So armed with this information, you just copy these files to someplace
else and them "move them back.  You will have to delete the original
fragmented file first.

Just my little bit on this defragmenting dicursion:

Try DOG (disk organizer) (look for DOG316.ZIP at simtelnet).

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

Regards. Nacho.

Subject:      File fragmentation and performance
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

At the risk of belaboring this point. Much has been made recently about
the questionable benefits of using disk defraggers on a flash card.

The argument against is usually that there are no moving parts in the
flash card and hence no performance gains to be had by consolidating the
file clusters in one area (since there's no head movement or spinning
platter to account for).

I don't know how DOS deals with files at the FAT level, but it's possible
that it treats contiguous entries differently (possibly affected by the
BUFFERS statement in config.sys?).

To test this out (groan...I know...ANOTHER test), I used chkdsk to locate
a 76k flash disk file that was in 15 non-contiguous fragments and made a
contiguous copy also. I ran a batch file that just read a given file 200
times in a single run (using the command "copy xxx.dat nul >nul", 200
times), and got these results:

Contiguous file: 41 sec
Non-contig file: 45 sec

I ran the test on each file 3 times, alternately and from outside SysMgr.

The times above are average figures, but in fact, they never deviated for
each of the 3 runs on each file (timed using Norton TimeMark). My
config.sys is set to the usual BUFFERS=20.

It appears there is some effect on performance due to fragmenting.

Comments are welcomed.

If you still have those files, could you try writing to (ie overwriting)
those two files. Should be revealing.

I think DOS writes 1 cluster at a time (ie allocation unit on chkdsk)
but that the lowest level, flash (including ATA) cards write a
different size (larger on older cards ??). As I remember, some
flash cards write 32K blocks, destroying what was there, so that
when DOS asks for a 1K write, the flash driver (or ATA card logic)
must read the other 31K before writing the 32K block.

Stan,

In my infamous disk performance batch file test, I basically copied a 100k
file over another specific file repeatedly 10 times. For that test, my
internal C drive took an average of 3.46 sec as compared to a 40mb Simple
Tech ATA drive which took 5.82 sec...really not that bad by comparison.

I doubt the C drive would have the flash file problems you mentioned
(being not a flash disk), so the write problems of which you speak of for
the flash card are either trivial or perhaps fixed for the newer cards.

Your explanation could account for some of the really slow times clocked
by some of the people reporting those test results (with times as long as
223 sec compared to my 5.82 sec).

You mentioned about overwriting my 2 test files from the fragmentation
test, but I'm not sure what that would serve to prove. I imagine a DOS
overwrite would likely be a delete, followed by create of a file...not
necessarily over the same area of disk either.

Try Malcolm Drury's VIEW 13.4   It can read/convert/print Word & RTF
(and a whole lot more formats) to ASCII, ANSI, or UNIX.

It's at:

Hello everyone

I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem
with Post/LX. I have a lot of emails to download (over 83)
and every time I get to the 84th email I get a error
message that says "problem during transfer- transfer

else had this problem? What did you do to overcome it?
Thanks.

P.S. I have tried using the maxsegmentsize=3D512 in the
www.cfg file. It doesn't change the problem at all.

Sometimes I have had this problem with messages that have no subject or body
(not just when read by READER, but actually on the POP server).  My solution is
usually to telnet to the pop server, which, if your server is mail.umn.edu, you
could do by going telnet mail.umn.edu:110 with www/lx's telnet package or
telnet mail.umn.edu 110 with most any UNIX telnet.  USER <user name> and PASS
<your password> commands get you logged in.  Then do a TOP command on the
offending message to see what it is, i.e. TOP 84 10 to display the first 10
lines (and the whole header) of the 84th message.  Usually it's garbage, so I
just do a DELE 84 and QUIT, and then can download the other messages fine.

If you can access your mailbox with Pine, from a shell account, it's even
easier: just go in and delete the message.  But most people aren't lucky enough
to have a shell account.

FYI, if you want to see the inner details of what's going on with WWW/LX and
Post/LX, start the programs with the -d9 option for maximum debugging level.
Then you'll get to see what's going on behind the scenes.

off. We checked Ralf Brown's Interrupt list at =

Any insight would be appreciated.

Does anyone really know what turning off light sleep *really* does? I
mean, not just "it appears to..", but what it is really doing to save
battery life/slow the unit?  It would be handy to know this to decide
exactly when and where to turn it off in a program.  Is this information
in the SDK, the Hornet spec, or a complete hush-hush from HP?

I can't answer your question but... I often put my flash card into my
laptop to download text files. After downloading 3-5 megs of text/source
files to the card, and before putting the card back into my HP200, I
usually invoke the Win95 defrag option. It often informs me that the
flash card is (usually only slightly) fragmented. The defragment
operation occurs very quickly, probably because of the small size of the
card, but mainly ( I feel ) because the memory pointer operations are
dealing with flash memory.

I bought two sets of Simtel DOS CDs. I paid 10$ for one and 15$ for the
other. The place I bought them still has them occasionaly. They do
advertise 6500+ programs on each. I like them because I can browse and
access them offline. Some of my friends think that even 10$ for two CDs
full of DOS stuff is a waste since ALL ( as far as I know ) of the
programs on the CD are available for free through ftp sites and the
Simtel, cdrom.com, etc sites. Still, I like to be able to go through
them offline, that's worth 10 bucks to me.

I use tv.com as a text viewer on my hp200lx. It can open up a 1 meg file
almost instantly. It will only allow reading of the file. Tv.com is only
2000 bytes + -. It is either freeware or shareware and does not require
an access code for full functionality. I use it on every computer, win

Hi All

I was wondering if someone could check my results please

I found a disc cache prog that SHOULD work on the LX and appears to...
Timing results however dont seem to justify the installation..

I have been using 90 sectors of 512 bytes..

The tests I did were Copy to nul from Flash card.. No difference

F4 Search through 1166 records in the database.. No difference
Sort on DB with different fields  No difference..
I did these with the DB on A: as well as C: different on the two drives but
same with/wout cache

The prog is QC420-1.zip and qc420-2.zip.  If someone plays with this or can
speed access to the DB especially I would like to hear of settings etc..

Disk caching is based in keeping frequently used disk sectors in memory.
It's efficient because memory is much faster than disk.

But in the case of the 200LX, the internal disk resides in memory too, so
both the disk sectors and the cached ones have the same access time.
Probably it would be even worse because of the overhead of the cache
program code.

For flashdisks in A, the same happens. Flash disks are slow for writing,
but for reading they're very fast, probably not as much as the internal
RAM, but I'm sure the difference is not worth the internal memory used for
caching.

Regards. Nacho.

Comments: cc: btorbik@earthlink.net
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

After having seen my first CompactFlash card yesterday, I
wonder if nobody else already had the same idea:

As we know, the palmtop can handle 2 PCMCIA cards via it's
single PCMCIA 2.0 card slot. The DoubleSlot Expander (Port
Replicator) prooves it. But this is a very unhandy solution.

Now if one could build a CompactFlash DoubleSlot Expander in
the PCMCIA adapter card for the CompactFlash, you could use two
CF cards in your palmtop. Should look like:

  +-----------------------\-+
  | PCMCIA Adapter Card   | |
  +-------+     +-------+ | |
  |       |     |       | | |
  |       |     |       | | |
  | CF b: |     | CF a: | | |
  |       |     |       | | |
  |       |     |       | | |
  +-------+     +-------+ | |
  |                       | |
  +-----------------------/-+

The usefulness of such an adapter card would be tremendous:
Your investment in a 10MB CF is not lost if you upgrade to a
64MB CF. Put both in the palmtop and use CF b also in your
digital camera. Think of the announced 128MB CF cards from
VIKING. Take two and Stacker them to 512MB flash memory in
your palmtop. And if we soon see CompactModems, this adapter
would be a perfect modem/flash combi card. You put the modem
in slot b and remove it if not used to save power. Your flash
remains in slot a.

I hope, one of the adapter manufacturers has a heart for
palmtop users and starts production of the:

  CF-DoubleSlot-PCMCIA-Adapter-Card

The SUPER team is not really a thing you join like a mailing list. We
formed it back in 1996 when the SUPER Site started and we were adding lots
and lots of apps quickly. Peter did the perl code which makes the site
manageable on a daily basis and has written some specialized apps. Jorgen,
Toshiki and Fong found (and continue to find) excellent apps that don't
appear anywhere else on the net. Toshiki also is invaluable when it comes
to making Japanese applications available to the world palmtop community.
He and Jorgen have also written several nice apps. I supply the web server
hardware, pay for the net connection, secure the advertising and make all
the updates. The SUPER Site is free for the HP Palmtop Community and will
always be.

The update mailing list is a good thing for the people who want to know
about the latest apps, but don't want to keep checking back to find that
the page has not changed for the last week. I only add things as they are
sent to me and they are definitely not on a schedule.

I hope this explains a bit...

I just bought a new digital camera (Kodak DC210) and have both 4MB and 15MB
compact flash cards for it. The 15MB card came with a PCMCIA adapter and
both cards work perfectly in my 200LX.

>Now if one could build a CompactFlash DoubleSlot Expander in

Your envisioned adapter would definitely have to hang out the end of the
palmtop. Two compact flash cards placed side by side exactly equal the
length of a regular PCMCIA card. To be exact, they are 1.433 long x 1.685
wide x .132 thick (36.40 x 42.80 x 3.35 mm).

Great idea though!

Actually, Pretec already does have a CompactModem.  56K, and according=
 to
their web site specs it doesn't look like it takes to much current.

I agree the dual CF adapter would be great, but how much current does=
 each
card require?  If we put two in there, might it not overwhelm the socket?

Just a thought.  I hope it can be done, as that would just be great.

I've been asked by Martin Paul, owner of palmtop.com, to relay this
message to the list: Palmtop.com is still alive and well.  Martin's
willing to supply email service to all palmtoppers *FOR FREE*.  Yes,
that's Zero Cost!  He says that espmail (the parent service of
palmtop.com) is doing fine from providing ccmail -> internet services for
corporations, and he'd love to have palmtoppers use the palmtop.com
service, since it's established, and it wasn't a big moneymaker anyway.

To sign up for service:
Go to the web page http://www.espmail.com/palmtop.htm.  He'd like everyone
to know that for free, he can't maintain the 800 number service, and the
fax gateway service has been defunct for some time, but if you want/need
email on the palmtop without taking up valuable RAM for programs,
palmtop.com works great!  This message was sent from there... I just have
Martin put a reply-to on my normal POP mail.

The downside to palmtop.com is that if you're not local to the Silicon
Valley, CA area, then it's a long-distance phone call from your location.
However, it is free... You be the judge!

This wasn't meant to go postal on Goin' Postal... I think the LX has
needed a tiny, efficent POP mailer for a LONG time now...one that does
nothing but send/receive mail.

Anyway, enjoy having the most flexible palmtop around!

I am but one of many. Mitch Hamm really put all this together,and
deserves the Lion's share of the credit.  I just (try to) maintain
the Mail-List.

Actually it is the LIST members who are willing to share their time=
 and
knowledge that make S.U.P.E.R. and this LIST a success.

I just "Drive the Bus" ;-)

How about using the 56K modem at 14400 baud. Would't that
reduce the power consumtion to an amount the palmtop can
handle?

Since EMS is faster than disk (when swapping), using a cache should also
make an improvement. (The EMS driver goes directly to the hardware, and
thus it is faster)

In any case, write-behind cache should make a difference, also on the
C-drive.

That's too bad. Original charge was $9 a month for 20 mins of free (800
service) time...I'm not sure how that would compare to 20 min of long
distance charges per month from Los Angeles (let alone East Coast or New
Zealand).

Might be worth a try for a one(or two)-time thrill (to see ccMail app
actually doing something).

Is the 9600k baud displayed on the sign-up the limiting speed? That would
make for longer connect times and phone charges.

Once you hook up initially at 9600, you can blast away at the fastest speed you
can.  I typically use 19200, 'cause I use a cellular modem sometimes.

Hi John,

Q: Are you using a 100LX or a 200LX?
Q: What rom version is your palmtop?
Q: What type of modem are you using?

also try adding Timeout=3D300 to the İMail¨ section of your

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

I'll second this. There are several of us who are "behind the scenes"

Also anyone have a copy of AskSam for DOS available for sale or know a

Maybe this is a dumb question, but why can't it be accessed via the Web,
sort of like Hotmail or Lycosemail?  That is, instead of going through an
800 number or direct dial?

Because if all you need is e-mail, why bother with a PPP connection?
Also, web-based e-mail requires you to be connected to your ISP while you
read and write your e-mail.  This means (depending on your ISP) you may
incur cost (long-distance charges or per minute charges) or at the very
least battery drain.  The final issue is that you can use cc:Mail without
having a memory-enhanced palmtop (since the client program is built into
ROM).

In addition, some people can't make their PPP clients work.

It is NOT AUTOEXEC.BAT! It is a batch file called server.bat

Lately, we have seen several such issues. It seems there is
some new Microsoft Email server which does some non-standard
treatment of email. This can cause the situation you see.

As a "maybe solution", try this: In the WWW.CFG file, look for
the Setup of the ISP you use. In that section add the
following line:

MaxSegmentSize=3D512

Use the capitalization I use. This is only a maybe solution,
not guaranteed to work. The next version we have coming out
very soon takes care of that. No, I do not have specific date
yet, but it measured in days, no I do not know how many :) ...

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

The programs usually have nothing to do with it. There are
somespecialized programs that mess with the setting.

It is in SDK, I believe, but don't ask me the page, I read it
4 years ago!

Hi People

Something I do is have Intersvr as a device in my config.sys with the /auto
switch at the end

Anytime I boot it checks if a connection is there and if so installs..if not
then no.

Just another way to make it auto..rather than bat file..

The 95LX doesn't have a database like "Database" on the İ12¨00LX. You
may be able to find a replacement on Eddie (see below), though.

> Where can 95LX list and/or programs be found?
"Eddie" is the largest collection, but it also includes İ12¨00LX programs,
so you'll have to look before you download.

The link is: http://eddie.mit.edu/ftp/pub/hp95lx/

I believe CompuServe has a lot of 95 programs in their HPHAND forum (at
least they used to), but alas they are only availiable to CS users :-(

CGA compatible display (the 95LX has a non-standard display), better
battery-life (although 95 battery life is not that bad), better
applications, a little faster, and DOS 5 (95LX has v3.3). For keeping
track of appointments and such, the 95LX could probably do, but for
text-editing, the display is too small - the built-in 95LX applications
only offer 40x16 characters!

Basically, the 200LX is a "scaled up" 95LX.

You can e-mail me if you have specific questions - I used the 95LX for
years, before recently upgrading to the 200LX.

WHAT??  Monopoly$oft doing something non-standard?? Egad! I thought
they WERE the standard.
</sarcasm>

Seriously, I think this is also behind the problem I had on another
account, running Pine.  Email messages showing up empty, when the list
showed contents. (No, there weren't any attachments).  The messages
also couldn't be forwarded.  When Forward Mail was selected, Pine
aborted.  When the problem finally got cleared up, it turned out the
sender was using new software from Guess Who!

For Post/LX, I put in the MaxSegmentSize=3D512, and so far, no problem

If they are providing an email service they sure better already have a
connection to the web or they aren't going to receive much mail.

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

Subject:      PGP via telnet?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Dear HPLX-L members;

I do most all of my Internet work from a shell account that I
telnet into.  I've been interested in using pgp, but obviously
can't use it in the shell account and haven't been willing
to go through the hassle of downloading, encrypting, and
uploading sequence to use it on my own computer.

With the ability of the LX's System Manager to cut and paste
between applications, I thought I could cut out much of the
hassle.  My plan was to cut from Data Comm, paste into Memo,
edit and save, run pgp to sign, reopen in Memo, cut and
paste back into Data Comm, and then post or mail using the
UNIX app I already had open.  I figured if it worked I
could automate many of the steps with macros.

In principle it seems to work, but there is (at least) one
major flaw.  When I cut from Data Comm, I get spaces at the
end of each line.  They run out to 80 characters and have
no line feed at the end.  I can automate WordPerfect to
reformat this into lines without the trailing spaces and with
the line feeds, but I don't really want to run WP on my
200LX until I get the speed upgrade.  Is there a workaround
using Memo?

I've looked at PAL Edit and suspect it may do what I want
too, but I don't have enough experience with it yet to say
for sure.

Any ideas or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Ted

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

What are you dialing to? How many other people are dialing in and daily moving several megs of e-mail? Who is paying for those lines and where is your e-mail when it's waiting for you to pick it up? What you are not telling us is that your PROVIDER has dedicated connection, or else your e-mail couldn't be delivered! And you are PAYING for that UUCP connection.

The argument here is that dedicated connection (256K) for Web based e-mail server is way less cheaper than paying for UUCP connection to the provider + paying for those incoming lines to the telco + paying for the equipment that sits on those lines and answers. I'm not even considering 1-800 number, that's way too expensive. And with Web you are not limited to one area but to the planet Earth!!!

Anyways, I'm not sure that this group is the right place for this discussion!

That of course can work on a small scale but I wouldn't want to run a
commercial venture based on that system. The way you are handling mail is
based on a system that was developed well before the internet as we know
it, when mail mainly only existed on large systems. I am glad it works for
you but I think you are probably on the trailing edge of the spectrum. :-)

As far as the original question, while the term "web" was misused in place
of internet the question is still valid. If this company supports email
access they are probably permanently connected to the internet and hosting
a pop mail server for remote access wouldn't be a big issue. A pop mail
server would probably be much easier to set up and administer than their
current dial in system.

Pete

PS. You are lucky to have such forgiving users, my people wouldn't stand
for a 3 hour turn around on mail.

Well of course.  Most providers are re-sellers, and not peered.
Who is paying? I am, and in turn, my customers.
How many?  That's proprietary, but more than 50, and less than 1000.

Again, the web is not the Internet; it's just a service that runs on it,
though many of the newbies to the online world don't realize it.  6
years or so ago there wasn't a www, but the most definitely was an
Internet. We've used it for about ten years and are far from pioneers in
that respect.  As to cost, I wish I COULD get a dedicated connection
256k for anything near what I pay for 2 uucp connections, but I can't,
at least not in the Phila. area.  I'll be glad to be proven wrong though
- email me privately the details - PLEASE!<G>
As to range, our Internet goes world-wide too, as does our PSTN.  We're
not limited to any one area either.

Absolutely Nedim, let's take it private from here on.  Let me just end
with one note that might be appreciated by 200LX'ers - our online
service and email servers are totally DOS-based, no windows.

I don't know if mine would or not, for, as I said, we connect three
times per hour, to move mail and news, more often than that during peak
periods. As to trailing edge, no more so than Palmtop users in general.
For, the whole system works without any need for a PPP connection and
the resulting overhead, either for our server connecting to our
provider, nor for our clients connecting to our BBS. On the user end,
all they need is their Palmtop and it's built in Datacom, plus a
modem, and if they wish to get fancy, an offline qwk reader.  One like
SLMR takes only less than 300k, much less than that if stepped on with
Pklite.  How does that compare to something like, Outlook, Eudora,
net-Tamer? Must it take up more RAM and storage to be superior?
As to throughput, we get faster rates on our direct uucp connect to our
provider, or our direct serial connects to our users, than I ever see
via PPP connection of the same bandwidth?  Must throughput be slower to
be superior?
As to content, the private data nets (Fidonet, Paul Revere Net,
Seeknet, for example) we carry in additon to Internet, are SPAM and
obscenity free.  Must SPAM and XXX be present for superior technology?

It works. It works WELL.  And a Palmtopper can grab his/her email
along with some enjoyable SPAM-free conferences, and be on/off in less
than 2 minutes. It's PROVEN technology, not trailing edge!

Does anyone know what Calvin (the vi clone) does to the fonts on
the system it runs on.  I hadn't noticed this on my 200LX (but I will
check), but when I run Calvin on an aging 286 monochrome laptop,
after I exit Calvin, the font is "bolder".  If I know what the magic is,
perhaps I can distill it into a small program -- starting and exiting
Calvin does it -- but that does lack something in convenience...

Sorry, don't know - just saying that I have not had this problem on
my 200lx or on a 386 or 486 (ie all the computers I use it on...)

There *are* some video controls mentioned in the doc - fiddling with
them might fix it.

Terry,

I have had strange experiences with my XJ2144. I even have stopped using it
for 6 months after having put it into my Win95 laptop. It refused to work
with the HP200LX while it was OK with the Win95 machine.

The thing with, I think, solved the problem was to reset the XJ2144 completely
by using the command AT&F and then AT&W. Maybe it will work for you.

Ian,

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

You need indeed get a copy of DOS 5 command.com to the C: drive and to add a

You can then run Snip'n Snap before loading SC. The main issue is that it
takes up a sizeable amount of conventional memory.

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

Light sleep on the palmtop is automatically enabled by calling
INT16H keyboard sevices, which every reasonable program does.

In light sleep, the CPU clock is OFF, but VCC, DISPLAY, TIMER
CLOCK and HFO is ON. After a configurable timeout value
(default is 3 minutes) the palmtop falls into deep sleep with
everything OFF. Any interrupt occuring during light sleep wakes
up the CPU and resets the timeout value to the configured
value.

Some programs (like Windows) bypass or through away the built
in INT16H interrupt handler and set up their own, which means,
that light sleep mode is never entered and special palmtop keys
are not recognized (like On/Off key). My TSR program
SLEEPON.COM tries to corrects this successfully with Windows
but obviously not with MS Word :-(

For further information about the palmtops power managment see
also the SDK pages 4-144 and 14-563.

My TSR program LXPRO allows you to change the timeout value in
a range of 1 to 60 minutes and you may also switch timeout OFF.
If you do that, light sleep and deep sleep are disabled, which
means, the CPU is running full speed until your batteriess die.

I use this feature of LXPRO to test my batteries. Yesterday I
tested my new T2T 1350 NIMH batteries. After their very first
charge (which you can do with LXPRO) they gave me 12 hours of
full speed CPU (no read/write operations) on my DoubleSpeed 8MB
palmtop. My old Panasonic 1100 NiMH only lasted for 9.5 hours
under the same test situation. This is a good step ahead in
battery technology!

Also note that "password" is built into the command.com that comes with
the HP200 and is not an external command.  I use 4DOS and was getting
pretty honked when I was playing around with the password stuff until
I figured that out.

I am trying to convert a .csv file to a phone.pdb file using gdbload. I
get an error message that "not enough fields specified."  But the number
of fields in both are the same.

I am using a 200LX. The .csv file has about 30 fields in it so the
phone.pdb I set up has 2 screens of fields.

I viewed the file that gdbload tries to create and the fields are there
and then there are some fields for the the Datacard (I don't know if all
the info is there) and ends.

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Is there a better program
to make the translation?

thanks

Chkdsk fixes errors in the FAT.  You can have errors in the FAT
on hard disk, flash, RAM, whatever.

What intrigues me are Longden's benchmarks that show that non
contiguous file access is somewhat slower in the HP200. Since
raw flash access speed is constant regardless of block address,
this would imply that there is extra work involved in accessing
non-contiguous files.

If contiguous files were marked as such in the FAT, the BIOS code for
computing the address of the 'next' block in a file could be much
simpler.   It would be 'add one to the last block address to get the
next block address'. If the file were not contiguous, you would have to
go through a table to find the next block address.  This table, which
lists the addresses of the blocks for the file, resides in the FAT on
the flash. This extra flash access to get at the table is the higher
overhead for non-contiguous files.  However, we would need to look at
the BIOS code to see if this was true.

If you use BATSET, available on SUPER, you can enter a statement in your AUTOEXEC.BAT
for NiCAD setting.  You can also change the total fast charge time, if you like.

I suspect you meant INTRLNK, not INTERSVR.

The interSVR runs as a program, not for CONFIG.SYS. InterSVR
locks up the keyboard, because it turns youe machine into a
passive SERVER machine being controller from the Client
machine (which runs inteLNK.

There is no average per se. It really depends on the data. A
disk full of GIFs will get 1:1.01, and a disk full of
spreadsheets may get 1:8 or as high as 1:16.

Stac used a "benchmark mix" of files, to evaluate Stacker 2.0,
3.0, and 4.0 etc. That is where the 2.0:1 for S3 and 2.5 for
S4 comes from. But that is like saying "what's the average gas
mileage on a a car?" Depends on car, and driver, and what you
do.

Oh, I see. Ok. If you run INTERSVR on a compustr then it is
the SERVER of files to the computer which runs INTERLNK. The
SERVER computer's keyboard is disabled, and only ALT-F4 works,
to kill INTERSVR.

Ok, I see now. The assignment in one computer has nothing to
do with the other computer. So my drives A, C, D on the
palmtop are known to the machine where INTERLNK runs as G,H,I,
if I have up to drive F assigned for other devices. Yes, the
INTERLNK-running machine needs a LASTDRIVE at least eqaual to
I in this example, because these drives are pretty real. I ran
interlnk in W95 config and the palmtop drives were right there
on the explorer. I then netwroked a desktop and laptop both
running W95, then added another machine to the network. Both
machines saw the palmtop drives. The third machine was remote
(actually in another country) and _it_ saw the palmtop drives
as network drives too!

Norton v6 could not analyze the drives across this link, but
almost everyting else I tried worked. Pretty neat! The third
machine was a server for a Website in another country, and the
files were on my palmtop, so my palmtop was actually a remote,
international, webserver? :) It was slow on the link to the
third machine, but ok on the local net. I never tried to hook
it up using a 10-base link, although I have the card but no
idea about drivers for it that run on the palmtop! That could
be interesting...

Hope all tis helps.

Peniel,

Microsoft invents new things and behaves like a gorilla out
there.

It is bad for us, but it is even more bad for others who must
constantly spend, spend spend money to catch up with the next
stupid nonsense!

Glad Post/LX works with MaxSegmentSize=3D512! I am even more
glad Andreas had the forethought to build it in, just incase,
which materialized.

You're serious, aren't you?

I believe tha SNAP generators for satellites are placed on the end of a
boom a meter or two from the electronics that are being powered, so as to
minimize radiation effects.

If you can live with that, and meet the requirements of the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (or the relevant agency in your country) perhaps you
can build a SNAP-palmtop.

I suppose the alternative would be heavy shielding. A 10kg palmtop....

30 fields is a lot. I'd read that csv file back into another system (ie,
Excel or whatever system created it) to confirm that someone else agrees
on the number and makeup of the fields.

Get a copy of LXSTAT (if it's not in SUPER, it should be) and add it
somewhere in the autoexec.bat as:

        lxstat N

That tells the system you have Nicads.

Let me know if you can't find it. One of the simple little utilities
that should be in every LX'ers toolbox.

Or the BUFFERS=20 statement in config.sys provides a measure of caching
performance that may only be evident for blocks that fall within the
cache buffer (namely the contiguous blocks). The next lookup for a block
would then find it in the buffer (in real memory) which is likely
optimized for access speed.

A test would be to rerun the eval with the buffers statement removed.

Interesting speculation. Let me know if you ever find out.

thanks.  FWIW, I'm an MCSE, and MCP+INTERNET, so I'm aware of where the
technology is, but I don't turn my back on proven, cheaper, faster,
smaller, more practical solutions, just because they are older.  I guess
that's why I own a 100LX and a 200LX.

yep, 30 fields. Excel can read the file easily.

The only thing I noticed was that in the file, some fields have quotes
around and some don't. Do all fields need to have quotes around them?

I also looked at the new file that I tried to create BEFORE trying to
open it with the Phone application. There are some records in it, I
guess that I get the error "not enough fields specified" on the 17th
entry because there is İ17¨ preceeding the error message (or perhaps that
is the error code). I deleted that record in my database (the one after
the last record that got written successfully to the new file) and then
I even deleted the previous one, but I still got the same error
message...  :-(

Has anyone used Intellisync with a 2X 200LX? A friend of mine had the
program so I decided to try it to see if it could import my data but the
software could not connect to the HP. It timed out too quickly. I notice
that when I use LL Remote it takes longer to connect but it always
connects. Anyone know if there is a way to increase the timeout setting
in the Intellisync software?

is there any other program I could try?

thanks

I use it daily to connect to my W95 box at work. I found it works
better if you start the desktop first, then Alt-Filer on the LX.

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

Hi all

I have had occasion to use FastlynX svr/lnk pair as well.. It has the
advantage of working in a Win95 window rather than tying up the whole machine.

I have used FXlnk on the palmtop and FXSVR on the Win95 machine. I prefer
Interlnk because it auto installs ONLY if there is a connection. FX seems to
grab memory always..ie link or not.  Same cabling for interlnk/laplink.  or
a special cable for max speeds. (need to solder one up)

Fastlynx 2.0 is on the Abandonware site.. Cant recall the www.address right
now.. If anyone wants it I can email attach or direct to the site.

Hi all

From a few messages here and also my own experience with a 2x 8 Meg
dying...ie opening up to find the machine DEAD..replacing batteries and all
ok except no C:data I want to Auto recover from such an event.

After my mishap I am backing up twice a day using Pkzip update option.

I was wondering if anyone has written a batch file/program that will allow
an automated resetting of stacker/jam drives and restore data onto
C:..Autoexec/config.sys etc.

I have a 10 Meg flash card stacked and Ram drive Jammed.. This gives me a
total of 37Meg to play with..

If someone has written something would you please share what you have
done..or ideas for auto recover util/batch file..ie restore settings from A:
so I can build on it.

ie how might it be possible to save the date to a file and then reset that
from A: in the event of ram drive being initialised?

Thx

Subject:      Waking Up LX at 2 am

One of my (minor) annoyances with my 200LX is the amount of time it takes to
get information out of it the first time I fire it up in the morning. I
would like to have it wake itself up at an optimal time (whenever the "Due
for today" macro has run) and then shut itself down, saving that "Due"
screen for when I press the power button. I don't mind it being on for 3
minutes (or whatever) and then powering down. I *do* want to see the
message.

1. Is there some way to modify the "Due" macro to add this, or other
functions such as a daily backup/reboot/refresh?
2. Failing that, how do I simply run a macro which turns the machine on and
then allows it to shut itself off? If I can also run a backup macro at the
same time, without losing the "Due today" display, that would be great!

Subject:      İTo cc:Mail users¨ Anyone know the cc:Mail file formats ?

I'm considering extending the functionality of the LXPOP program (part of the
HP200LX PPP Development Kit - available from my web site) to interface with
the in-built cc:Mail client on the palmtop.

What I need to be able to do all this is the formats for all the CC:Mail files.

If anyone has this information, could they please send it to me ?

You would then be able to download mail from your POP mailbox into cc:Mail on
the palmtop (removing the need for a separate mail reading cient like PNR),
and upload outgoing mail and news from cc:Mail to your SMTP and NNTP servers.
Depending on whether the newsgroup name can be passed into cc:Mail, this might
also work for incoming news articles from an NNTP server.

Note that LXPPP will work with Modem, Serial or Ethernet connections (most
other mail transport programs for the palmtop will not work with PCMCIA
ethernet cards cause they don't use a standard packet driver interface).

I hadn't connected in awhile and accumulated a good size file of quicken

my desktop Quicken program using Pocket Quicken Connect, but I keep
getting the error message: "Failed to transfer transactions." I never had
this problem in the past.  I am terminating all before I run HPXFER on the

Any ideas on why this is happening?

Just for grins I stopped in a Service Merchandise when I was
in Chicago today.  They had a 1M 200LX for $280 and a 2M for
$300.  They also had a *sign* in the case that AC adaptors
were closed out at $10, but when I tried to buy one, they
were out.

When I was running Stacker, I had the following procedure in place to recover
from "oopsies" on the LX c: drive:
1.  I installed stacker.exe in the uncompressed portion of the flash card,
allowing me to just type "stacker" at a a: prompt to mount the compressed
drive.
2.  I had a macro run a batch file each nite that used the command "xcopy
c:\*.* a:\bkup /s /e /m".  This dumped the c: drive to the a:\bkup directory
each nite, but only the files that had changed.  Pkzipping the files would have
done no good, since stacker was already compressing the files.

That combination kept me out of a lot of trouble.

This all may be slightly off-topic, but it's fun stuff nonetheless.=

Besides, it relates to palmtop batteries.

What about the plutonium batteries they use for some surgical implants,

I am just getting around to sending out a few messages that I have been
putting off.  My first point of business is to publically thank some
people who have been very helpful to me recently.

Thanks to...

Mack Baggette who recently supplied me with a tremendously inexpensive
fix for the sound on my 200LX.

David Sargeant, for supplying me with a HP200LX manual a tremendously
inexpensive price, participating in the getting my 200 to speak, and of
course his wonderful web site.

Ignacio Garc=EDa P=E9reze and Ken A Moore who also provided valuable
assistance in making my 200 speak.

Rod Whitby for LXPPP a great piece of glue for PNR and POP.

Andreas Garzotto, Edward Falk, and Peter Watkins for providing the
LX/UNIX connectivity tools, lxtools, lxbackup and LXFileman
respectively.

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

I had my 200 and 100 apart at various time this last week and thought I
would share my experience.

The actors:

100LX - 1 meg of black pristine HP palmtop, well loved but often
neglected for its larger brother.
200LX - 5 megs of portable storage and power, well used and it show,
especially with its scratched screen and missing verticle line.
Me - as the mad scientist.

It was a dark and stormy night...

I had my 200LX apart because Mack Baggette (Times 2 Tech) had sent me my
new NiMH batteries and a little microscopic transistor, diode or
whatever that I was missing from my 200 that was keeping it from
speaking. Let me tell you,  I am amazed at my own soldering ability, I
managed to neatly tack all three legs of that surface mount component
with my trusty standard issue Radio Shack soldering iron.  Must have
taken me 30 seconds max, and another ten minutes to dig out my loop so
that I could do a close up inspection of the joint.  Let me tell you, no
cold solder joints at my house.  Anyone willing to pay to watch me do it
again?  Didn't think so.

While I had my 200 apart, I thought I would swap the screen with my 100,
so that my 200 would be more pleasing to the eye.  Well despite the fact
that I had read the warnings on David Sargent's web site about taking
apart the clutch assembly in the right hinge, I did it anyway for the
sake of curiosity. Let me  make a suggestion, listen to David and DON'T
DISASSEMBLE THE RIGHT HINGE.  Well the parts are all sitting on top of
my printer, and probably will until I can figure out a good way to
reassemble the hinge.  I do have an idea on a tool to make the job
easier and am going to work on that tomorrow if I get the chance.

Well, with my 200 not all together in a portable state I pulled out my
100 loaded my appt book and used it for the remainder of the week.

Well it is now this weekend and I was staring as the mess of parts still
sitting atop my printer and stared at the 100 and reminded myself how
much I liked the 100's black case over the 200's blue/green. Then
suddenly it hit me, BRAIN TRANSPLANT.  Well ten minutes later and my 100
now thinks it is a 5meg 200LX.  I am mostly satisfied (except of course
the strewn parts that will make a 100 disguised as a 200).  The only
thing that I am still considering is swapping the 200's keyboard for the
100's but haven't decided if it would be worth the trouble.  Does anyone
have any experience pulling the LX keyboard apart?

Well if you have read this far you will probably have an idea about my
next message and the plea for dead LXs that it contains...He he haa HAAA
HAAAAAA!!!!!

Ended up being that L44 component that you and a couple other identified
for me.  After no one could actually find any data on it, I got around
to asking Mack Baggette what it would cost for him to pull one off of
his parts LXs.  Well he said he would be happy to and threw it in for
free with my order of a couple of NiMH batteries.  Gotta love it.

BTW, you probably just read my "Mad Scientist" message where I make a
comment about your comments.  I hope you didn't laugh to hard at that
point :-)

Are you ready to clean your closet of all of those dead LXs?  Just think
if you got rid of only one you would have space for at least 2 more
decks of cards!!!!!

Well let me know what ya got and how much you need.  I am especially
looking for a 100 case, a pristine screen (isn't everyone) and 200

I am having another problem with Post. Now when I use Memo
as my text editor with Post it won't obey th margins. It
sends out my emails in 1 or 2 lines which makes it very
difficult for the recipent to read. I tried resetting the
margins but it still does it. I looked in the users manual
but didn't see anything about turning wordwrap on or off.
Everything looks fine when I type out a message, it goes to
seventy (where I have the margin set now) and
automattically goes to the next line. But still sends the
email in 1 or 2 lines. I am using post on a 2 meg 200LX
with an EXP 4meg 144LXM card. Does anyone know how to fix
this? Thanks.

On another note has anyone tried using a solar panel to
trickle charge the batteries? I found some 3 volt solar
panels that will fit on the upper clamshell case and was
thinking of glueing one on and connecting it to the
batteries and seeing if it won't keep the batteries topped
off They were something like 3 volt 100mA max so I thought
they would work at about 50mA under luminesent lighting
which would be a good trickle charge for the batteries. Has
anyone considered or done anything like this?

6 DSR 7 Req. to Snd 8 CLR 9 RI 10 Shield

Its a standard DB9 connector

This is a known problem with WWW/LX and HV. Files on Palmtop.Net come from an
FTP site, but the URL you hit first does a HTTP transaction so the download can
be counted. This count lets us keep a semi-accurate count of the S.U.P.E.R. Top
20. WWW/LX is not able to handle the re-direction from HTTP to FTP within the
same transaction. We are considering a second set of pages just for WWW/LX so
you will get the FTP link and not the counter script. This will throw off the
count just a bit, but WWW/LX traffic is very low compared to the overall
Netscape/IE traffic.

For now, you can get any of the files via direct ftp from here:

ftp://ftp.one.net/pub/users/hamm

Hope this helps!

Hi John-

This is just guesswork, since I use PE, not MEMO.  AFAIK - MEMO saves
files without carraige return characters at the end of lines. It does
its own wordwrap which isn't saved.  This is probably whats causing
the problem.

I'm not sure if this will work, but try setting the OriLength variable
in reader.cfg to 70 or whatever you want to use in MEMO.  (It defaults
to 64). This is supposed to be for controlling the formatting of
downloaded files in your TempOriFile, but maybe it also effects
formatting of outgoing messages.

I run Post from raw DOS, not inside SysMgr, so haven't seen some of
the odd behaviour some folks have reported.  If you have room on your
palmtop, try installing PE.  The price is right (freeware) and there's
a spellchecker available (also free).  It has the advantage of being
written by Andreas Garzotto, who also wrote Post, so the two programs
work beautifully together.

Hope this helps.

I tried a test writing a 87K file to a Flash (old Intel) disk space
that was fragmented into 7 pieces, and another space with 2 pieces.
Writing to the seven segment space was 10% faster, but also inconsistent.
Copying the file once took 10 sec., immediately after it took 13 seconds
into the same space, at least as far as a FAT report went.
I assume there is a layer of stuff going on below the FAT level
that doesn't parse with FAT level thinking.

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

Speaking of UUCP, is anyone using any of the DOS-based UUCP stuff on their
LX?  On the Compaq Aero I had during my undergraduate days, I used to use
either fsuucp or nuucp (I don't remember which) to dial up and grab my mail
when I travelled.  MV Communications (http://www.mv.com) used to offer a
UUCP account for something like $4(US) per month plus a minimal connect
charge.  You can access the account via a NH-based (area code 603) dialup
number or connect over the Internet.  (I simply dialed to our local terminal
server and hopped out from there, avoiding all toll charges.)

There also used to be a program called (I think) NUPOP, which was a
DOS-based POPmail clinet that didn't require PPP - it could be scripted to
dial up serially and connect to a pop server via a termserver or by logging
in to a UNIX machine and using telnet.  Not the world's fanciest solution,
but it's great for those of us who don't ask for anything beyond email to
our LX.  I think NUPOP was written by Northwestern University.

Did your FAT report show the cluster numbers (so you can verify copying
into the same physical location)? What program is that?

Here is some news on the DOS emulator for Windows CE, direct from the

Subject: Some news on XTCE

Hi,

You have been sent this message because you have expressed interest=
 in
the XTCE PC emulator for Windows CE. If you wish to be removed from=
 this
mailing list please send a message with REMOVE in the subject line.

It is now nearing the end of Q1 '98, the projected release date for
XTCE. This deadline will be adhered to and you can expect a demo version
to be available from the website sometime in the next couple of weeks.

XTCE has been in a 90% complete state since November last year, but=
 has
been held back by two factors:
(1) It was too slow.
(2) I went on a 2 month holiday in Dec.

Since late October last year I having been trying very hard to get the
kind of speed out of it that I would deem 'usable'. Unfortunately I=
 have
not been able to get this speed on anything less than an HP620LX. It=
 is
for this reason that the initial release of XTCE will only target this
platform. At this point I wouldn't say it's impossible to get it to=
 go
fast enough on slower platforms, just that it would require hand-coding
the entire CPU emulation in Hitachi SH and MIPS assembly language. This
is a very large and complicated undertaking and may not result in a=
 big
enough speed increase anyway (the XTCE CPU emulation is currently coded
in highly-optimised C).

I will list below the speed of the emulation on the current H/PCs and
you will be able to see from that how slow XTCE is:

1) Casio/Compaq/HP320 1st generation machines - ~2Mhz 80186
2) Phillips/Hitachi 1st generation machines - ~3Mhz 80186
3) HP360 2nd generation machine - ~4Mhz 80186
4) HP620 2nd generation machine - ~6Mhz 80186

The HP620 version of XTCE will support colour. I will probably also
release a colour MIPS version (for use on the Sharp machine), as this
machine will probably be fast enough too (although I have no way of
testing this).

I would like to think that I'll come across some breakthrough that will
enable XTCE to perform adequately on all platforms, as I believe it
should be somewhere between the speed of a 6 and 8Mhz 80186 even on=
 the
Casio/Compaq/HP320 1st generation machines (based on other benchmarking
I've done on the various H/PCs). If I ever do come across a method to
speed up XTCE on all platforms I will not hesitate to release versions
for those platforms too.

If there is enough demand for an HP360 version I will release that too
as it is on the threshold of what can be deemed 'usable'.

I apologise to those people that this news disappoints, and will make=
 an
announcement to this list in the next couple of weeks when the demo=
 is
available...

Actually, I have not been able to log into ftp.one.net using either
WWW/LX's built-in FTP, or the external FTP client.  It gives me the=
 same
problem in WWW/LX when I try to download files straight from ftp.one.net,
and the external FTP client for www/lx keeps asking me for a password,=
 and
no matter what I enter it doesn't accept it.

I have used Interlink to connect my Palmtop to Windows 95 (Palmtop acting=

as server) and had no problem in establishing a connection, the Palmtop A=
:
to D: drives appearing as O: to R: drives in Windows Explorer. However I
have found one annoying problem with this configuration that prevents me
having this as a permanent setup, and that is that my Desktop PC is a lot=

slower to use because Windows Exploer appears to operate in the backgroun=
d
interrogating the Palmtop drives (presumably to check if they're still
there). If the Palmtop is not connected, or not responding (i.e. timed ou=
t
& powered down), then I assume the interrogation waits, and ultimately
times out, in the mean time slowing down normal operation. Has anybody
found this, does anybody know if  there is a cure. =


Currently I run a DOS batch file which reboots to MSDOS mode, loading
Interlink. I can then transfer the files between the Palmtop and Desktop
using the DOS COPY command and finally return to Windows - a bit tedious.=

Subject:      Looking for *palmtop* cc:Mail file formats (they're *not* on

İI sent a message asking for the cc:Mail formats for the palmtop.¨

Thanks to those folks who pointed to SUPER.  I'd already looked there, and
the files there only work with some cc:Mail export program on the desktop
and don't read or write the files that are found on the palmtop.

The Qualx! program seems to do something with the palmtop files, but it also
uses macros to start up the cc:Mail app to do some of the work (I presume).

I'd like LXPOP to do everything between your POP server and when you next start
the cc:Mail client yourself without having to call up cc:Mail in between (in
case you've already got it open).

So, I ask again, doeas anyone know the cc:Mail file formats on the palmtop ?
İPlease don't point me to the files on SUPER - they don't have the info.¨

Somebody *must* have this information - come on guys & gals, your hacker
shine is fading :-}  Do we know anyone who works at Lotus ?

Just enter anonymous for username and your entire email address for
password. I just logged in using the external ftp and that worked ok.

On a serious note....

New zinc air battery technology should be available in both rechargeable
and non-rechargable batteries in about 12 months.  The company that is
working on them reports 10 times the capablities of the current alkaline
cells.  They are already working with cell phone companies and the palmtop
companies for the next generation power cells.

This will allow much greater current draw with longer life.  Perhaps making
the WinCE handhelds viable.

This all may be slightly off-topic, but it's fun stuff nonetheless.
Besides, it relates to palmtop batteries.
What about the plutonium batteries they use for some surgical implants,

Yes, I did that.  But when I tried to change directories, or get a file,
it would ask me again, and not accept my password.

I have a 8MB c: drive and I partioned it to an unstacked 3MB
c: drive and a stacked 10MB f: drive. I didn't want to stack my
whole c: drive, because I want to leave the SC ~carousel.tmp
file unstacked for faster taskswitchs. I use Stacker 3.0.
Here is how I did it:

 STACPALM C:/S=3D5/R=3D2/C=3D8

creates a stacvol.dsk file on my c: drive of 5MB size, with a
compression ratio of 2:1 and a cluster size of 8KB. STACPALM
asks for a config.sys file. I answer d:\config.sys. At the disk
write error I answer İf¨ail.

 STACKER F:=3DC:\STACVOL.DSK

mounts stacvol.dsk as my 10MB f: drive.

The config.sys file on the unstacked portion of my a: drive has
the following line:

DEVICE=3DSTACKER.COM /P=3D9 A: B:

STACKER.COM is also on the unstacked a: drive. After booting,
my a: flash card is automatically mounted.

I keep STACKER and STACPALM also on my stacked flash card in a:

On my c: drive I only keep a large ~carousel.tmp file

Sounds complicated? Well, in fact it is!

Note: If you call the stacker files with the command line

I took care of a patient once with a nuclear battery in his pacer -- he
came into the hospital because the pacemaker WIRE had worn out....

I don't think these are used anymore; instead they use recgargables that
can be recharged inductively, through the skin.

Nope!

Unfortunately, these programs are making calls to the 286 and 386
chipset, so unless some fabulous programmer can write a patch to
make our LX emulate a 386, the short answer is no.

Older, more used sectors on PCMCIA take more time to write.
Perhaps that accounts for the discrepancy?

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

(Having said that, I can certainly feel this is logical :),
but I have no idea if it is correct - I never wrote a BIOS!

Yves, Nice useful redefines, although I won't use the AZERTY
change :)...

I have been interested in the DVORAK keyboard. The history is
that current keboard layout was designed to SLOW typists down,
because old typwriters' mechanism could not keep up with
typing speeds.

Dvorak researched and devised another arrangement of keys that
actually speeds one up.

Would you by chance have a redefition for this arrangement?

 These pgms are all on Simtel  (www.simtel.com)  in the DOS section:

      gdfrag.zip      1.5K  95/04/10
               Run unattended defragmentation on all drives
-  Looks promising:

-  You might also want to download this text file which

Thanks to Peniel for his recommendation of VIEW 13.4. It worked great as
a viewer for the rtf files and some doc files. However, I have other doc
files that it did not work on. I got a message "Unrecognized file
format" or something like that.

Any ideas what the format might be, and what might view it?

Thanks.

Try Malcolm Drury's VIEW 13.4   It can read/convert/print Word & RTF
(and a whole lot more formats) to ASCII, ANSI, or UNIX.

It's at:
http://www.nrcan.gc.ca/~mdrury/shware.html

Hope this helps

Hi there,
I just sent you TV.com and TV.txt, let me know if you don't get them. If
no one has the other file e-mail later in the week. I have some tests I
am currently studying for. I have some of those Simtel DOS compilation
disks as well as the CICA Win disks. One of them could have it. If you
want I can check them with a "dir GDFRAG.ZIP /s". Let me know if you
don't find them at bueker@sonoma.edu.

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

Thanks for your time,

Confirming you used WWW/LX and FTP.exe.

Because I got the same results as David listed below. (:-(

Why are equal signs '=3D' followed by their hex value 3D on this

lines hard to read.

I really hate todo this but I have a HP200 2 Meg PT with a EXP 8 meg/ 14.4
modem/fax card for Sale..  $350.00  Includes HP200 and the Exp Thinfax 8
meg/14.4 modem!!

The HP comes w/the following software!!!
Act 1.1.1
Alfie(Alphanumeric Paging software)
AOL
Bitfax
Black Jack
HV
LXPIC
PAL
WWW

The only reason for me selling this machine is because Symantec was not
including the HP200LX's Act version 1.1.1 in the new upgrades of the Act PC
versions(3.0.8)  I had to stop at version 2.0.6 on the PC!!!  I need to
upgrade on my PC which forced me to upgrade my HP unit to the HP360 w/8 meg
and I purchased 20 meg flash card..

So far I found the HP360 to be a very nice unit!  It's going to take me
awhile to get used to it.  Give me another week or so I will be able to tell
you a little more about the WinCe units!!!

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

        The book "PC in Your Pocket" shows screen shots of "JiniFonts" as used on
the HP200LX. I've searched every shareware site and palmtop page I can
find, with no luck. Anyone know where I can get this nifty sans-serif font?
They've named JiniFonts "after Jini Tinling-Scammel who designed it and
gives it away," according to the book . . . .

Thank you,

Go to the SUPER Site and search for fontstuf.zip; the Jini font is in that
archive. My favorite font of all is the helvsd by Stan Dobrowski also in
that file.

Laurence,

I use interlnk with Win95 and have a different experience. My IBM (166mhz
Pentium) boots to win95 with interlnk loaded in config.sys:

        device=c:\dos\interlnk.exe /com:1 /noprinter

I then launch intersvr on the 200LX using a batch file to disable
timeouts, enable the serial port, etc...the key line is:

        c:\dos\intersvr.exe /baud:115200 /com:1 /b

Using this setup, I don't notice anything unusually slow on the desktop
except the first access to Windows Explorer, during which I notice it
polls the LX drive A. Afterwards, there's no indicator that the desktop is
making any attempts to contact the LX in the background (unless I
specifically request it).

There are other if's and but's. Email me if you want more specifics.

David,

I can confirm your experience trying to get into ftp.one.net.
On CD it asks for password again, then loging id, then is in a
loop! What did you use for ftp? (I used ftp/lx and WWW/LX).

Happens all the time. They may never have gone out of
business, just went quiet for awhile. One example of
errorneous the whole concept of "abandonware" is! It makes a
totally unwarranted assumption.

Does not work. It takes login and password, and when you try
to change dirs it wants password again, then the login, and so
on... Nogo. I am confirming David Sargeant's experience.

With thanks to PktDem v2.1 by Pascal Urien, and also to S.U.P.E.R. for
providing said program, I now have an HP200LX packet "sniffer"!  (still
haven't figured out how to "Ping" yet...)
What I have is a PCMCIA Ethernet card sold through Computer City with
the label "U.S. Logic" (cat. no.: 22-10294) and a stock HP200LX.  I
installed the card and software, following the instructions for the
PktDem program.  It works and the battery life astonished me!  Using
Battlog, I recorded 1.4 hours of continuous operation at which time I
got tired of messing around and went to another project.  The palmtop
(via Battlog) reported a supply voltage of approx. 2.39 volts (down from
the "new set" voltage of 3.00).  The supply returned to 2.80 volts
(after two updates, about 10 minutes) when I removed the card.  The
voltage is currently 2.78 volts (last three updates).

Sure it works. Using www\lx and ftp.exe I just logged in again. Asked me
for the login name and password initally but not after that. Changed
directories with no problems.

Subject:      AskSAM vs. IS
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

AskSam and InfoSelect are both free form text databases. The differences
between the DOS versions are price, how they bring up documents, the size of
document and the metaphor they use.

Price is the most obvious difference. Because InfoSelect is no longer
supported Micro Logic sells old versions for $49. AskSam for DOS is still
supported (but I don't know when the last update was) and sells for $395 (but
you can get it slightly cheaper through a retailer).

When you do a search on AskSam you can make some pretty sophisticated queries
but the search doesn't take place until you actually enter it in. As you type
ever letter of your search you can see IS start to eliminate entries but the
search is strictly for the word (or part of the word that contains your word)
you are searching for (IS does have another search called neural which I think
will look for things that sound like your entry; I've never used the feature).

Where AskSAM seems to shine is size of documents. I really don't know if there
are practical limitations to the size of the AskSAM databases. While there
might not be size limitations on IS, you have to allocate additional memory
using an EMS driver. Practically most IS users for DOS don't use the database
to hold large documents. The prototypical AskSAM users is a lawyer or someone
who wants a hold of vast amounts of information at hand. The IS user is
someone who has all these post-it-notes on info and wants some place to put it.

AskSAM really feels like a word processor with fancy search tools. IS uses the
metaphor of stacks. You can have any number of stacks and it is very easy to
switch from one stack to another. If you want one entry in the stack to come
before another you can easily push one entry to the top of the stack so that
when you do a search it will come up before another. That gives it a slight
advantage to AskSAM for addresses and contacts because there are some contacts
that you might want to come up first in a search.

I'm in the same boat as the first user. I've played with the demo for AskSAM
and I liked it. If anyone has one for sale I'd like to buy it. However, saying
that I also like my IS.

BTW, there is a demo version of AskSAM out there at their web site. I think
you can add ten entries to it before it becomes read-only. I just don't see
why they don't drop the cost for the DOS version. I sent e-mail to their site
asking that question but I have never received an answer.

OK, I'm going to ask the stupid question that some are thinking but no one
wants to ask to look stupid. What is Interserv? I have Win95 and I am looking
for some automatic way of sychronizing only files that have been changed from
my HP200LX and my Win95 computer. Will Interserv do that?

Intersvr and Interlnk are a pair of programs (supplied with DOS 6.0 I
think) that provide a server / client configuration for the function of
"sharing" drive and printer resources between two computers.
The Intersvr side is an executable that hogs the server, locks out local
access (except for termination) and provides services to Interlnk,
running on the client PC.  The Interlnk side is a TSR that "finds" and
communicates with the server (Intersvr) program across a serial or
parallel connection.
A basic setup of the pair consists of a DEVICE= line in the client and
normal command-line execution in the server.  Look at the built-in help
on a PC running DOS 6.0.

Intersvr and interlnk are two companion programs that came with DOS 6.x
and appears they were provided to give you LapLink functionality within
DOS (for connecting PCs together to exchange data). After two PCs are
connected with either a serial or parallel cable, one machine runs the
intersvr program and the other runs interlnk. Then the interlnk machine
can access the drives on the intersvr machine (which kind of locks up
while its acting as a file server) as tho they were it's own drives.

Interlnk/intersvr were dropped by MS after DOS 6.22.

I have Win95 and I am looking

Intersvr and LapLink and several other solutions will probably work. I use
intersvr to copy files, but not really to sync them (tho I probably could
with a batch file and the DOS XCOPY command). If you find a copy of DOS
6.x, 'help' on intersvr, interlnk or interlnk.exe will tell you all you
need about how to use them.

Email me if you want more specifics.

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

        Just my 1/50th of a dollar,
                James

have
done no good, since stacker was already compressing the files.

<snip>


Stacker is good at some things and not so good at others.  You might try
using PKZIP for your backups, as you will save a considerable abount of
disk space over just using STACKER's compression algorithm.  STACKER
does just fine at recapturing the dead space at the end of a DOS file
(from the EOF byte to the end of a sector) and also some minimal
repeated character compression, but PKZIP beats it soundly in
real-world performance.

I tried the following test:

46 dos text files (each of approx 3-6k bytes each).

The dir command shows these files take a total of 222380 bytes,
and including the "trailing" dead space these files use 234496 bytes
(do a dir before and after deleting the files from an unstacked drive).
On a stacked drive it takes 334064 to store those same files.

For those who are unfamiliar with STACKER's operation, a stacked
drive shows approximately twice the free space, but may use up to
2x normal allocation to store a file, depending on how compressible
that file is.

Using PKZIP displayed compression averaging around 50% and the resulting
zip file showed a file size of 117943.  When stored on a stacked drive
this .zip file required 229376 bytes.  The individual files took up 45%
more space than the same files stored on the same drive in a .zip file.

I suggest that anyone who is feeling file space constraint should become
adept at using PKZIP.  Obviously YMMV, depending on many factors, including
compressibility and the annoyance of having to UNZIP.  But for situations
like backups and archiving it's a no-brainer.  ZIP is also handy for
reducing the size of large files that need to be sent out the dataport.

Just my two pennies worth.

Subject:      Key200!
Comments: cc: palmusoz@forensic.sa.gov.au

Hi gals 'n guys
i use key200 to remap two applications, the first one (chronologically)
is the Notetaker to Quicken. i use Quicken a lot, but use the Note-
taker even more!

the following is the file i called key.dat and called with key200:

Ctrl Quicken : ¬Ctrl Ctrl ¬Ctrl Quicken ¬Quicken
Quicken      : Ctrl Memo ¬Memo ¬Ctrl

This worked fine and dandy until i discovered Computer Math
Calculator, by Eugene Dorr <dorre@well.com> This freeware program
has the best of HexCalc and the HP Calc and some neat touches,
like the display of all four bases simultaneously and the ability
to switch between them with ease.

It is proving a boon to my school studies! the file is cmc100.exm
As it is an EXM program, it is 100% system manager compliant,
allowing hot-key switching and fn copy/paste between programs.

i assigned it the key Alt+Calc in the application manager. then i
delved once again into key200 and placed a pair of lines AFTER the
entry for Quicken/Notetaker thus:

Alt Calc     : ¬Alt Alt ¬Alt Calc ¬Calc
Calc         :  Alt Calc ¬Calc ¬Alt

Note that this is identical syntax to the earlier listing, but there
was a problem! It appeared the Alt key was being reported down when
entering the CMC100 program.

The symptoms of this were: switching to cmc100 and entering any key-
stroke got a "beep" and no more. i tried all keys with no success until
the Alt key, which freed the prog, but switching back in did it again!
i tried all kinds of mods to the file syntax with no success, until
i thought, "Sequence!" a dos udf...

Placing the entry with it's original syntax First, above the one
for Quicken, has proved perfect! Now when i press the Calc key, i
get my beloved Computer Math Calculator and the HP Calc is only
an Alt+Calc key-stroke away.

i hope this discussion is useful to someone!

Because it is too expensive, too dangerous, too large, and it cannot

But perhaps we will have a working hydrogen-battery in some years, as
the (i think) Frauenhofer-Institute suggested recently.

I have noticed similar effects in mail coming from Lotus Notes,
received on unix.  On receipt, mail appears to be wrapped at column 72
and an "=" is inserted at the end of the broken line.  The same mail
has the normal "=" replaced by the "=3D" sequence, while non-ascii
characters (such as accented character) are replaced by a similar
sequences.  E.g. the single characters "e¬", "e:" and "e`" are
transformed into =E8, =E9 and =EA (I am not sure about which accented
"e" character because I use a script on unix to read this type of
embellished mail, by simply piping the mail through a sed filter
and replace all accented characters (i.e. =xx sequences) by an
appropriate single ascii character.)

I have been unable to trace who is the culprit: Lotus Notes or
my MH mailer.

Mime-Version: 1.0

I have become confused as to where/what I have done.  The programs I'm
using are:

op2216.exe -  10696 bytes (commandline: op2216       )
pd2212.com -   8582 bytes (commandline: pd2212 0x62 5)
pktdem.exe - 202983 bytes (commandline: pktdem       )

The first two are part of a download package from super (or Simtel, this
is where I get confused), and the third one is found by the name of
PktDem and also comes from one of those two places.

Damn this sounds like the rambling of an idiot.

I will retrace my steps and report exactly where and what comes from
each site.  If you don't find this stuff yourself, count on me sending
you mail tomorrow.

The card did not need the "cardopen" enabler when used with this
software.

If you have some stuff that will do additional TCP/IP stuff (or
NetBEUI), please feel free to mail me whatever you think I might be
interested in.  :)

As to the NetWare thing, I have been playing around with NetWare (Duke
Nukem 3D requires an IPX network) and I'll try my "Duke" setup on the
palmtop.  Currently, the setup on the PC does not support client/server
stuff, just the basic support layer.

Okay.  OP2216 is the enabler, which makes the palmtop see the card.
PD2212 is the modified packet driver.  With those two pieces of software,
and the appropriate server running on the desktop (and a good cable / hub/
whatever hardware is needed to connect the two), you can run most any
package that needs a standard packet driver.  They are available at SUPER,
or at the ftp.one.net site under the name lxether3.zip.

OP2216 is the enabler, in this case, specifically for the LX.

If you want to do backups, you can run an NFS server on the desktop and a
client on the palmtop.  This allows you to map drives on the palmtop, to
drives on the desktop-- i.e., g: on the palmtop becomes the desktop's hard
drive.

SOSS, Son of Stan's Server, available at simtel.net, is a freeware DOS NFS
server that runs on the desktop.  There were two drawbacks to using it: 1)
it doesn't run under Windows 95 in a DOS box; it needs to be run in
straight DOS mode.  2) It would only allow a few files to be transported
before aborting.

I haven't found any freeware NFS servers for Windows 95, but www.xlink.com
has demo downloads on their 95/NT servers.  The one I'm using works QUITE
well, but expires after two weeks.

For the client on the palmtop, I recommend XFS180.ZIP.  It's a great
package of NFS tools; the other one I tried, NFS102-w.ZIP, on simtel,
allowed copying to the desktop, but wouldn't let me copy the files back to
the palmtop.  XFS can be found, according to the documention, via FTP to
lwfws1.uni-paderborn.de:/pub/xfs


On the subject of card enablers: does anybody know how to remove an
enabler?  The trouble with them is that once you run them, you have to
reboot in order to be able to use flash cards or modem cards in the LX.
Perhaps somebody could write a de-enabler to undo whatever it is that
OP2216 (and also SEHP, the Silicom card's enabler) do?  Now that the SDK
is available to the public, it shouldn't be too hard... (famous last
words!) :-)

Well I've been reading the list for a while and gotten some good info from
it. There are a lot of people that seem to know a "whole bunch of stuff"
about the 200LX answering questions out there.  I've had my 200LX for
almost 4 years and I have finally run into a problem I can't solve myself
or
by reading something.  I'm hoping that one of these persons can help me
now.

I've got a new Silicom Ethernet card and can't get it figured out.  I don't
know how to configure it, and I'm not sure how to set up the net.cfg for
it.  Can't run the setup wizard to set the interupts because the wizard
requires a 286 or better.  Tried running the msd program on the 200 and
everything runs OK except the iinterupt checker (locks the 200).

I've got a very early 1MEG 200 (Phoenix BIOS 1.00 A).  Can anyone who
has this their Silicom ethernet card working on their 200 help?  Maybe you
could email me a copy of your config.sys, autoexec.bat, & net.cfg.

Personal replies to: penickrh@iname.com

I think you'll find that Intersvr/Interlnk are also available on the
Windows 95 CD (in the OLDER directory).  I don't think they are installed=

by default, you need to copy them across by hand.

Thanks for your reply Longden, just for comparisons sake, my relevant lin=
es
are:

devicehigh=3Dc:\dos\interlnk.exe /noprinter /drives:3 /baud:115200

in CONFIG.SYS on the desktop and

c:\utils\intersvr /baud:115200

from within my batch file (similar function to yours) on the Palmtop

I do not think there is much that can be concluded from the differences.

I agree with your observation that when Explorer is opened, the drives ar=
e
scanned which generates a delay due to the time the Palmtop takes to
respond, this is the most obvious delay. However, I think certain actions=

also cause the drives to be scanned again generating further delays even
when you are not directly accessing the Palmtop. I suspect there is no
solution, and the problem I see is a side effect of some other
utility/driver or whatever that I have in Windows 95 if you are not aware=

of a similar problem. =

It's available at the FTP site for http://comports.com/hplx.  Let's see
here... the full address for the SDK is:

ftp://ftp.libertynet.org/site/graphiti/hplx/LX_SDL_SDK.zip

It's even usable on the palmtop.  There are some broken links, but there's
no author information to get ahold of the person who made it.  It's easy
enough to get to the information that's not linked, though.

Check out LXPPP on my web page.  All the TCP/IP stuff you could ever
want (including the "ping" you were after).  All runs on a standard
packet driver (which it looks like you have).  You'll also be able to
do POP (and NNTP in the next version), SMTP, DNS, Talk, RSH, LPR ...

Sorry, but I was offering an amusing article from the newsgroup
comp.sys.hp48 relating to the "weight" of binary ones, so I cannot supply
you with Software Carousel.

You can still get the article, though ;-)

Hi group-

Just tried the ftp.one.net site with www/lx.  Couldn't get the
directory either.  Goes as far as "Receiving data...", modem lights
flash (RD & SD), but counter stays at 0.

No problem with the palmtop.net ftp site.

Both sites & SUPER work fine from my FreeNet account (Unix) using Lynx.

I have no idea why the palmtop.net site works fine with www, but not
one.net

Haven't tried launching ftp.exe from www yet.  I have two versions of
this so I'll try both...

I finally got my Accton card to let me log into our Netware 3.12 server
using just the packet driver that is available on SUPER.  You must have
the 802.3 frame running on the server, and then you load:

OP2216.EXE (available on SUPER)
PD2212 0x62 5 (SUPER, same bundle as OP2216)
LSL (part of netware client software)
PDETHER (available on simtel)
PDIPX (available on simtel)
NETX or VLM (part of netware client software)

And it works fine.

To everyone who's having trouble with the WWW/LX FTP client and
ftp.one.net: check your version of FTP.EXE.  If it's 0.6, there is a bug
in it that causes problems with some ftp sites, ftp.one.net being one of
them.  :-)

The solution is to upgrade to 0.7, available on SUPER.

If you don't mind spending a few bucks, Walnut Creek CDROM has a CD with
about 350 Project Gutenberg texts on it. It seems to me that it was about
$30, but don't quote me. It might be more costly than downloading (then
again, maybe it isn't), but a heck of a lot more convenient. I'm sure
they've got a Web URL; I don't happen to know what it is. Their toll-free
number is 800-731-7177.

BTW, all Project Gutenberg texts I've toyed with, whether downloaded or
taken from the CD, have hard carriage returns at the end of every line.
This is a major annoyance, especially when using Vertical Reader. You may
wish to cast around for a program that removes these returns. There are a
number of them out there. Perhaps someone will chime in to let us know
their favorite.

HTH,

Thanks David.  Works for me.  Just tried it with the version of ftp.exe
now on D&A's web site.  Didn't see the version #, but the file date=
 is
Dec 25 1997.  This one works fine.

is this a better system than using LLremote? why not just make a floppy
with a folder of the necessary files to run LLremote. And when you want
to transfer put the folder with the files on it, on the desktop and run
it from there. You don't have to change any settings on the desktop
machine and you can connect at 115,200.

that seems accurate, but I see it at computer shows quite often. I paid
$10. I also purchased about 6 CDs that had nothing but C and C++ code as
well as other source code. 2 of the CDs have 4 books each which are
programming guides dealing with C++. Those can also be purchased for 10$
at computer shows or $30  (+ / - ) by mail.

It's not because I like to hear myself talk - after sending the message
below I realized that any equal sign would show up as =3D3D, making the
whole story very confusing. So, here it is, in 8-bit, _not_ in
quoted-printable:

It's a MIME code as it is used in "quoted-printable". At the end of each
line you will find an equal sign to signal a soft carriage return, i.e.
your mail user agent 'knows' that it may reformat the lines ending in
'=3D'. Further, an equal sign followed by a two-digit (thus readable) hex
code denotes that particular eight-bit code, using only printable
(7-bit) characters.=20

As usual for in-band signalling, one has to do something to keep mailers
from misinterpreting codes at the '=3D' in "device=3Dwhatever.sys" and
therefore we have to have a '=3D3D' sequence to denote the literal equal
sign.

A sed script would have to translate all those two-digit hex codes into
the corresponding chars (in the local character set - iso, ibm or
whatever the local machine uses), OR you could upgrade to another mail
user agent that is capable of dealing with these MIME-content-type
headers.

For more reading see the RFCs (UNIX grep helped me to RFC1521, which has
this explanation on equal signs). (RFCs are at internic.net and most of
the local universities. I have them on CD (the old ones, at least).)

To see if your mailer supports it: I sent this message in quoted
printable, and your mailer should print this without equal signs:

Fran=E7ois from Li=E8ge had a t=EAte-a-t=EAte with Ren=E9e.

Hi, palmtoppers:

Due to a sum of circumstances, I have an extra HP200LX SDK I wish to sell.
It's the package sold by Thaddeus Computing Inc. (see
http://www.thaddeus.com/ks-devel.htm for more info), still in the original
post envelope it came in, this is, has not been opened.

It's sold for $79+shipping, I'm asking $50+shipping.

Regards. Nacho.

I assume that the former version, prob 1.8 or 1.7, created QWK formatted
files by default (message.dat).  The new version 2.x of uqwk probably
creates SOUP packets by default (0000000.MSG).

Use the -L switch when running uqwk.

For example, if you have a script file that creates the uqwk, then edit it
so that the uqwk call now uses the -L switch.

Probably something like:

exec uqwk -f <file>

to

exec uqwk -L -f <file>

Well, THANKS!

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

Now I use the following: uqwk -L +m -h

The only drawback I still have is the fact that messages from the HPLX
Mailing List show up with my own name in the From: field. Messages from
elsewhere (non mailing list) show up correctly. So I suppose one of the
fields is being mixed up.

I can live with that but there might even be a command to repair this little
nuisance

Thanks again

It's just the users of these 'Mime-compliant' mailers, which stuff around
with 'extended' characters.  Most of them don't think to turn off the
encoding (At least most of them don't leave the HTML-extensions thing on
though..), so we get these awful looking messages.

Well I confess. I used to collect text viewers. On my palmtop I tend to
keep over over a thousand small text files (source file examples, etexts
etc. ) It seems that at least ten of you are also interested in text
viewers.
        I personally prefer TV.com because it is so small and fast. But it only
lets you scan text. No search etc. I have other file viewers that also
let you browse directories and if I remember correctly they let you
search for target strings. One of these is IBM's editor called 'e.exe'.
Some others ar "Ed" , "Dox" and "View" , I hope I haven't mangled their
names.

        Anyway, if you have read this far you may want a copy of these other
viewers. If so let me know at bueker@sonoma.edu. I would prefer to ZIP
all of the files together into one, but I don't have to. I also have to
find all of the files but I have them all archived.

I would like it, assuming it is freeware. If so, I'll put in
on my personal Web page, too.

Waldemar,

Laurence gave you the info on appt to wake up the palmtop.

Here is another macro to put in another, later appointment to
take both appointments and move them to the next day.

The reson for _moving_ them and not make a repeating daily
appointment is that repeaters tend to fill up and slow down
the palmtop.

Assumptions: Fn-3 is used for the ToDo macro, Fn-4  used for
this macro. All 4 lines are really one contiguous macro. I
split it to make it easier to explain.

{Appt}{F9}{F5}{F4}{Left}{F4}||3{Enter}{Enter}
{Alt+T}4.00{Alt+D}+{F10}{Menu}q
{Appt}{F9}{F5}{F4}{Left}{F4}||4{Enter}{Enter}
{Alt+T}4.30{Alt+D}+{F10}{Menu}q{Fn+F4}

Ok here is the step by step explanation:

{Appt}{F9}{F5}{F4}{Left}{F4}||3{Enter}{Enter}

Go to appt, make sure you are in Appointments. Goto, Today, Go
back one day. Search for string ||3, then enter that
appointment.

{Alt+T}2.30{Alt+D}+{F10}{Menu}q

Go to time of appt, enter time, in case it was changed by you.
Goto Date field, add one day, save. Quit. (menu quit is not
really needed here, and if so, take out the appt in next line.


{Appt}{F9}{F5}{F4}{Left}{F4}||4{Enter}{Enter}

Appointment book, appointment mode, goto today, go one day
back, search for string ||4 then enter that appt.

{Alt+T}2.45{Alt+D}+{F10}{Menu}q{Fn+F4}

Change  its time to a bit later (not significant, as long as
after the ||3 appt which fires up your list. Gogo date, add 1,
save, quit.

As I think about it, in our Web page I believe there is
something Andreas wrote which customizes the time when Daily
greeting message comes up. Look at http://www.dasoft.com
follow About D&A, then Faces, then Garzotto, then on that page
there is a link to Palmtops, I believe it is there...

Good luck.

Exactly right. The only difference is that Memo never really
puts anything in the file, it justwraps the lines on the
display at the right margin specified.

I think this will not have the effect. The file is saved by
Memo as say four records, one 140 bytes long (2 lines on the
70 byte margin in Memo) one record 2 bytes with CRLF, another
long record representing text entered, and a short CRLF.
Post/LX does not mess with the file you/Memo saved.

It is only odd if you think you get WYSIWYG from Memo! :) -- I
had the same thing before even before WWW/LX was born, when
I'd save long texts, then open them in some other
wordprocessor / texteditor (Xtree for example) and have these
long lines which were just long paragraphs. This has nothing
to do with Post/LX.

It also can open multiple files (even at once - like Menu Fie
Open and specify *.TXT). It also is lightning fast on
searching, esp. compared to Memo, and also it is not limited
by memory to file size. I regularly edit and use my 3Mb
message files with PE. Memo dies on anything over 400K, and
anything over 150K takes so long to open I am worried about
finishing my work in my own lifetime :) ... The latest version
is always on ftp://ftp.dasoft.com/pub/PE/pe.zip. It has other
neat features, study the docs, and the F1 - which you can edit
as it is a file, to suit your own personal quirks in
displaying help info, as well as add a few more tricks and
explanations. It also has macros, an can learn them directly,
and also ..... Forget it! Go read it yourself ;-)

Memo only WRAPS the lines at the right margin, rather than
putting a CRLF there. Use PE which DOES place a CRLF at the
wrap point. This is really a MEMO issue, not Post/LX. .

Yes, when you reset MEMO's margins you merely tell it where to
wrap the lines, not break them.

     How about sending the archive to Mitch for inclusion on S.U.P.E.R.
That should appease all the "Text-Philes".

Hi Tim & SC Cut/Paste wannabees,

     I tried the Snip 'n' Snap solution. It does work (such as it is)
with an MS DOS v5 command.com. It chews up alot of memory, and doesn't
work with any of the apps I use. Soooo....


Good morning Mr. Phelps. In the manila envelope in front of you is the
HP200LX palmtop computer. Note the purple Fn key on the left side and
the accompanying "Cut" & "Paste" keys on the right. Your mission,
should you decide to accept it, is to write a TSR that would mirror=
 the
contents of the clipboard so the information could pass between SC work
areas.

Any Takers? It would be great to have a DOSClip type TSR that would
pass data between Work Areas. Should be possible, Yes?

Do any of you palmtop experts use any of the various wireless
paging/e-mail wireless services that are offered?  I am considering
getting such a service, and wondered if I could get some testimonials
from a few real users.

Can someone familiar with the FAT system please answer the following
question. Is it possible to create a "linked" file, in the UNIX
sense, within the DOS FAT structure?  Clearly, a separate program
would need to be written to create and delete the link, but is it
even possible - would the FAT structure support two file names
pointing to the same disk areas?

My first LX modem was an ATT Keep-in-touch 14.4k. The power drain was
about 169ma, which caused the 'card battery low' msg everytime I inserted
the card (which also got quite warm during use). Worked OK, tho I got
tired of lugging around the custom cable it needed and eventually got the
more power miserly XJack 3144.

Wouldn't one of the TSR remove type utils on simtel work?  Specifically, on
the page:
http://www.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/msdos/tsrutil

I've seen TSR utils that remove tsr's loaded after the util.

If not, then perhaps others can find a use for these.
On that note, I tried the TSR removers on CIC100 -- the modem detection
driver on the LX, and while it does remove it, loading CIC100 in one area
while switching to another Software Carousel area, will freeze the machine.

Anyone know how to load CIC100 in a SC area  without it freezing when done?

Short answer: No.

Long answer:  Many operating systems, like unix and MacOS, have an extra
layer of disk mapping called inodes.  There is an inode allocation table,
which works like a file allocation table, but instead of filenames, a
unique inode number is stored.  A separate table maps inodes to file
names.  This schema allows an infinite number of filenames to point to the
same file.  DOS does not have this extra layer of abstraction.

Subject: FAT Question


Can someone familiar with the FAT system please answer the following
question. Is it possible to create a "linked" file, in the UNIX
sense, within the DOS FAT structure?  Clearly, a separate program
would need to be written to create and delete the link, but is it
even possible - would the FAT structure support two file names
pointing to the same disk areas?

Can you use one of those TSR "marker" programs?  I'm looking for it
right now, I have a tiny pair of programs (tsrin.com and tsrout.com)
that allow removal of a tsr by marking the memory the tsr loads into and
allowing it (the tsr) to be removed when you get tired of it.

I'll find a way to make tsrin/out.com available to whoever wants them.

David:

Well, I realize that DOS doesn't have support for inodes.  What I was
suggesting was that one could simulate this at the FAT level -
perhaps create a duplicate FAT entry which points to the same disk
area(s) as the linked-to file.  But I don't know enough about the FAT
structure or operation to evaluate how possible this is, what
potential complications I would find, etc...

Any help?

I should have clarified the problem.  OP2216, and the other card
enablers for the 200LX, are not TSR's.  They simply reconfigure the
unit to recognize the card they work with and exit.  Thus, they cannot
be unloaded, since they're not resident in the first place.

Perhaps someone more knowledgeable about the PCMCIA hardware than I=
 am
can tell us what the enablers do, and how to undo it.

yep, 30 fields. Excel can read the file easily.

The only thing I noticed was that in the file, some fields have quotes
around and some don't. Do all fields need to have quotes around them?

I also looked at the new file that I tried to create BEFORE trying to
open it with the Phone application. There are some records in it, I
guess that I get the error "not enough fields specified" on the 17th
entry because there is İ17¨ preceeding the error message (or perhaps =
that
is the error code). I deleted that record in my database (the one after
the last record that got written successfully to the new file) and then
I even deleted the previous one, but I still got the same error
message...  :-(

Has anyone used Intellisync with a 2X 200LX? A friend of mine had the
program so I decided to try it to see if it could import my data but the
software could not connect to the HP. It timed out too quickly. I notice
that when I use LL Remote it takes longer to connect but it always
connects. Anyone know if there is a way to increase the timeout setting
in the Intellisync software?

is there any other program I could try?

thanks

Subject:      Why is the equal sign MIME encoded?

I use POST/LX together with WWW/LX and I create my mails with
PE. But maybe I found the answer to my own question. I usually
have all my outgoing mail MIME encoded by default. Now for this
mail, you are just reading, I switched MIME encoding OFF. Now
let's see what happens if I write an equal sign '='.

From my understanding MIME should only care about 8 bit chars,
and the equal sign is a 6 bit char with the decimal value of
61, placed in the ASCII table between the numbers 0-9 and the
upper case letters A-Z. None of them is MIME encoded.

Subject:      WWW/LX: performance?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Having read a lot of comments and questions concerning WWW/LX I am very curious
about this program. I would like to know how much memory it takes up (including
its browser and email/news reader). Then there is speed. How does WWW/LX
perform (time needed to connnect to ISP) in comparison to dialing into a Unix
shell? Is it possible to use 2400 bps to fetch and send email? When downloading
html pages I suppose you must use at least 14k4 bps. Doing that how smooth is
the program; are wait times rather long or perhaps surprsingly short? I have
some experience with Nettamer in that respect and found it to be very slow.
Another point are graphics. I understand one can use LXPIC to view graphics
when using WWW/LX, but how (well) does this work? This graphics viewer is
fantastic but I still cannot visualize how browser and viewer can work
together. I hope these are not too basic questions. It would help me find out
whether WWW/LX will work for me or not.

Thanks

Frank

and allows long file names and "alias" file names. There is a 4DOS
directory on Simtel that contains 47 files. The basic patch is in
two 256K files.

I have a bad feeling that I'm about to ask a stupid question. Oh
well, I've been asking them since I was a boy...

Just bought a spare 200LX, a 2MB unit from Service Merchandise, as
they were closing out on them (as reported on this mailing list). It
arrived today.  I powered the unit on, and it seems to work fine.
(Boy, do I love the feel of that brand-new hinge!).

But... there's only 1MB of RAM that I can find on the computer.  When
I terminate the SYSMGR, I find the following:

C Drive:  42603 bytes of files in _DAT directory
         303616 bytes free
DOS mem: 651624 bytes of conventional Memory available to DOS
         ======
  Total: 997843 bytes

Where's the extra megabyte??? The unit is clearly labeled as a 2MB
model - it's silkscreened onto the case: "Palmtop PC - 2MB RAM"

Okay, please tell me what simple thing I've forgotten about.  It has
been years since I first unpacked a brand-new HP-200LX, so clearly
I've neglected something rudimentary.  Or maybe I've been taken...

There is 640K used up by the actual RAM; the memory used to run programs.
That leaves about 1300K free for the C: drive.  You can go into the SETUP
(Ctrl-Filer) System option to see how much is allocated for disk, and how
much for system memory.

The 1MB models only have about 300K free for disk!

For those who may be curious, Automap for DOS (version 3) works great in
640x200 CGA mode on my LX.  I installed it on a stacked 8mb flashcard, and
the performance is actually tolerable for the most part.  (Redrawing the
maps is fairly slow, but can be aborted by pressing ESC.)

I suggest that you edit your journey in the text based "Journey" screen and
then switch to map mode after calculating the routes, as the routes seem to
be calculated more quickly when the map is not being displayed.

Oh, and I don't want to see ANY of you trying to read maps on your little LX
screen while you drive!

Chris,

I just ran CHKDSK from the c:\ on my 2meg 200lx...

   1400320 total
           hidden files
           directories
           user files
           available on disk

       512 each allocation unit
      2735 total units
           available units

    651264 total bytes memory
    572592 bytes free

I shortened the output of CHKDSK but you should see something like this.

Phil

I don't recall the bytes being all that hard to find.

I assume you had to put the batteries in yourself, so the unit is probably
'clean'.

Exit SysMgr to DOS and run chkdsk. If the numbers are what you showed us
already, I'd be inclined to think someone goofed somewhere and you have a
1mb unit. Otherwise, I'd think you'd find a C drive with about 1.3mb.

I've been using WWW/LX since it came out, so I'll try to answer your
questions.

        Memory:  My installation takes up about 600K, but this includes
accessory programs, backup files, and some unrelated stuff that really
belongs in a different directory...   Without all this stuff, it would
be about 450K.  I also use my own, larger fonts for the browser, so
this also adds some.

        Speed:  I think its a good bit faster than NT, but then I
haven't used NT for a while.  Dialing into a Unix shell is a whole lot
faster.  But the shell is text-only, and probably connects to the net
with a T1 line, not by modem.  Connecting to a shell is also faster,
since it doesn't have to do PPP negotiations.  I never tried WWW with=
 a
2400 bps modem, but it would probably be painfully slow.  Remember,
with the shell account, you're only reading the mail; it's already on
the system - with WWW you transfer it all to your machine.  Speed
also depends greatly with your ISP, and phone service.  Some days it
flies, other times it seems slow.  The browser (HV) works very nicely.
Speed depends on whether in-line graphics ore on or off (you can
select this in the config file and from the menu).  With graphics on,
it can be slow, depending on the number and size of image files.  With
graphics off, HV will blow other browsers away (except Lynx on a Unix
shell + T1 line).

        Graphics:  HV (the browser for WWW) can display in-line GIF
images (not JPG) on its own.  This can be turned off for speed.  You
can easily use LXPIC for viewing by putting a line in the hv.cfg file
for each type of image file.  When browsing, you just move the
highlight to the image link & hit enter.  HV calls LXPIC to show the
picture.

BTW - HV is freeware, so you can grab it off SUPER or from D&A's web
page.  You can view either your own HTML or downloaded web pages.

Hope this helps.

Sorry, I forgot to finish that last message.  I've occasionally come up
with missing memory, usually after having it apart.  So if you can't
change the setup in the SETUP application, I'd do a CTRL-SHIFT-ON and
initialize the RAM disk and see if that fixes it.  If not... it sounds
like the unit has a problem.

I am fairly certain that 4DOS does not allow long filenames. It allows you
to have file descriptions, but they are merely descriptions (and shown
when you do "dir") and cannot be used instead of filenames.

Also, 4DOS doesn't allow symbolic links (as I believe was the original
question), as it doesn't change DOS it self, it merely replaces the shell
(command.com) with a better one with lots of features borrowed from Unix
shells (plus a few that are not!). It is quite good, but also rather
large. Expect a minimum installation to require ~400kb (200 for the shell
replacement and 200 for the swap file). Granted, this may not be large to
some palmtoppers, but it is to me :-)

If you just want the filename completion and commandline history features
then there are several programs availiable that take up much less space
than 4DOS. Wced is such a program and I believe it is availiable from
Simtel (wced18c.zip).

Hi,

1. go to the C: prompt (dos prompt)
2. type cd\
3. type dir /s

        This will generate a lengthy and COMPLETE C: drive directory listing
and then a summary of info. Your total memory will be included in the
information on screen. There are many other ways to check total memory,
but this should work fine..

Actually, VLM can use expanded memory, so it actually leaves about 500K
free memory even with it all loaded!  (If I recall correctly.)

Unfortunately, it appears I spoke too soon.  I can actually GET to the
Netware 3.12 server, and run the login command, but when I actually get to
the point of putting in a login name, it freezes the LX.  Any Netware
gurus on the list have any ideas?  I'm using the packet driver software
PDETHER and PDIPX to get to the server...

I have sucessfully used the AT&T Keep-in-touch 14.4 PCMCIA data/fax

I tried the usual suite of free fax programs for the HP, but it
never got all the way through the beginning fax protocol without
hanging up.

It doesn't seem to suck too much power. I ran it for
more than an hour once on batteries.

Hi,

I believe I once saw a utiltize that implemented Unix-style links on DOS =

A bigger problem is actually with chkdsk. Links created in the FAT is =
going to look like cross-linked files and chkdsk is gonna reported them =
as a problem.

Well, symbolic links would be nice, but I don't think in my wildest
dreams I could ever hope to so trick DOS.  More likely, if at all,
would be hard links.

A friend just forwarded me a copy of wced, but I haven't tried it.  I
have been using cmdedit, a PCTools program for several years.  I just
found on the web a new version that works on my palmtop/DOS, Windows
95 machine at home, and my NT machine at work.  (The older cmdedit
didn't work on NT).  Now I'm happy and satisifed...

Danny,

Somewhere I remember reading that a large temporary file is needed for
synchronizing data between Pocket Quicken and Quicken.  Perhaps the file
you're synchronizing is too large for your free space on the HPLX.

I apologize for the size, but it is an interesting use of a palmtop. If
something is 'Marine' proof, it surely is an amazing piece of equipment.

I too have seen Walnut Creek CDs at shows for about $10, but they're
usually last year's edition. I doubt though that one would miss much if the
CD in question were the Project Gutenberg one. Nothing that Samuel Clemens
or Richard Henry Dana wrote has changed all that much in the last year. ;-)
Good suggestion!

Hi,

Can anyone please tell whether "PCGLOBE" is able to run on 200LX or not
?

I have try PCGLOBE 5.0 long ago on a 486 machine, it was a very good
refernce tool for country facts,.but failed on a Pentium as it reported
"run time error 6003". I manage to find a copy from the net URL at
"ftp://ftp.fys.uio.no/pss/pc-prog/pcglobe5.zip" from a search at
"http://ftpsearch.ntnu.no/".

I try on my 200LX running from a 4meg EXP ram card, but it hung up.

Regards
jien hung

I believe the answer is "maybe".

CHKDSK wouldn't like it at all, but it is done all the time on CDROMs
(of course they don't have real FAT file systems either so maybe it can't
be done --- hence my maybe).  I'm on the CD writer list and a frequent
complaint is that some data CDs cannot be copied because they are "too
big", often appearing to have significantly more than the 630..650mB that
a CD can hold.  Large files are frequently made to appear to be present
in more than one directory to ease (one presumes) the installation process;
but there is really only one copy and multiple "links".

One suggestion I've heard (and I have no idea if this can be done), is to
make the links be zero sized files (a little tricky to make, but doable) so
they only occupy directory space, then insert a TSR into the "file open"
path of DOS, that when it finds such a zero length file, consults a
mapping file (that the link making program maintains), and causes the
actual file name to be opened (this would be like Unix symbolic links
vs. hard links).

But then again, maybe not :-)

Subject:      Re: CUT/PASTE in SC

Thanks for giving that work-around a go, Al.  I haven't had a chance to dig
out my DOS5 disks, and I figured the memory overhead might be too high to
make it worthwhile.

I hope the "IM Team" takes up your challenge, though.  It really would be
great to have that capability.

I have seen a few DOS cut-and-paste TSR utilities around varous BBSes over
the years.  I wonder if any of these could be loaded before SC and work
between sessions.

It's too bad the Sunshine Software/SC folks didn't supply something along
these lines, since their other palmtop customization features are pretty
nifty.

Hi Tim & SC Cut/Paste wannabees,

     I tried the Snip 'n' Snap solution. It does work (such as it is)
with an MS DOS v5 command.com. It chews up alot of memory, and doesn't
work with any of the apps I use. Soooo....


Good morning Mr. Phelps. In the manila envelope in front of you is the
HP200LX palmtop computer. Note the purple Fn key on the left side and
the accompanying "Cut" & "Paste" keys on the right. Your mission,
should you decide to accept it, is to write a TSR that would mirror the
contents of the clipboard so the information could pass between SC work
areas.

Any Takers? It would be great to have a DOSClip type TSR that would
pass data between Work Areas. Should be possible, Yes?

Here's an update on my FAT question.  I did a little research and
experimentation last night.  Turns out the FAT isn't what I need to
alter to simulate a link, but rather the directory file itself.  I
did an experiment with Norton Utilities, and was able to create such
a link - really just a duplicate entry in the directory file having a
different name but pointing to the same FAT entry.

This seems to work fine, with a couple of caviats.  First, as many
have pointed out, chkdsk will likely fuss about this situation
(although I didn't have time to personally check it out). Also, one
should only make this link after all editing has been done on the
file.  Otherwise, subsequent editing of one of the files will cause
it to "separate" into two different files.

Now to write a short program to perform the linking and
unlinking function for me, without resorting to the Norton Utilities
package...

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions.

Thanks for your response.  I had tried clearing a fair amount of disk

Since I didn't know if anyone had an answer for me, I called Intuit.  They
told me that sometimes the Pocket Quicken files are just too big (they
didn't know how that was defined) and sometimes over time they can become
corrupted.

Theyt suggested backing up all my Quicken and Pocket Quicken files,
exporting all my transactions fro each account as QIF files, and then
importing them to the desktop program.  I didn't care about
synchronization, since my primary entry of these transactions was on the
palmtop.

Then I backed everything up.  I trimmed all the transactions from each
account in the PQ file.  Then I tried entering a dummy transaction in 2
accounts and tried to use PQC.  It failed again, suggesting a deep seated
file corruption in my PQ file.  I deleted the file (in my case,
Sands.PDT) and started fresh.  I then did some test transactions and they
synchronized using PQC with no problem.

Claud,

I browsed  asu.com, but their website doesn't seem to mention any links
to the medical school.  I would appreciated it if you could dig up the
URL.

Thanks,

Hi all.

They recently switched us over to digital phone lines at work and my
XJ3144 modem no longer connects (still works fine at home tho).

Does anyone have a relatively cheap solution to making a connection on a
digital phone system?

My "PC Zone" catalog shows a "Konexx Mobile Konnector" as a $120
adapter for digital lines. Anyone know how this rates as a solution?

I might be much cheaper to get a handset line adapter (not an acoustic
coupler).  Only problem is you can no longer control the "hook switch"
with the modem, you have to get dial tone manually then begin dialing
with the modem.

Hi Longden-

Dunno about the Konexx device, but RasioShack has the "Fax/modem Mate"
Cat # 43-1242 - plugs between the handset and phone, supposed to work
on most any phone system...   Haven't tried it tho.  Costs  $49.99 (US)

I used this product about 3 years ago and did not find it reliable.  Had periodic
problems dialing out with it.

Called phone provider and had an analog line run to my office.

Dear Khun Suree,

Reading your question sent to the Palmtop Users group, may I take the
opportunity to ask you if it is possible to install Thai fonts or is
there a way to use LX200 to read Thai.

Would appreciate if you could share your experience.

Montri B.

actually Intellisync tech support helped me out and I was able to sync
my data today. Their program was only able to translate 26 of my 30
fields but hey...    Maybe (?) if I would have "played" with it longer I
could have gotten the whole thing transferred.
thanks.

Try the Monash FTP site mentioned in the FAQ. I think it's listed as
cmcal18b.zip.

Hi to everyone on the list!

I've been following other people's experiences with network cards and
some of theproblems encountered. I use the Silicom Ethernet card very
successfully for both IP and IPX network traffic.

I use PC/TCP's IP stack, using Silicom's ODI driver and Novell's NETX
for IPX, which uses a Net.CFG file.


The following is my net.bat file which loads up both IP and IPX:

        Net.bat:
        c:\silicom\sehp.exe   (to wake up the card)

The one problem I did have with Silicom was the RJ45 connector. Because
the cable used is very thin, out of three cards only one work straight
out the box.

I hope this helps, if you have any questions let me know.

Dvorak keyboards are optimized for touch-typing on a full-sized keyboard.
 What would be really interesting is a "thumbs-optimized" layout which
puts those frequently used characters near the edges of the machine.
After all, my home row on the 200 is vertical - not horizontal.

Hi Longden

I'm curious as to the technicalities of this.. If digital then an analogue
modem should still work as our (voices) are analogue...please explain..

Here in Australia All the central switches AFAIK are digital and comms
between them are also..just the lines from home to central switches are
copper wire technology.

Russell

Digital in this sense applies to the KSU or switch that serves the
handset base at the desk.  The handset base uses more than the normal
two (tip and ring) lines of a normal dial-up or POTS line. (POTS = Plain
Old Telephone Service)  A KSU served "phone" uses two (or more) lines
for data (hook switch, line activity, and other controls, indicators)
and as many pairs for audio as the manufacturer felt was required.  Some
"phones" can carry on a phone conversation and do full duplex intercom
at the same time. (two sets of voice lines)

I'm sure that this question has been asked a thousand times, but since I am
new to this list, I will ask it again.

What ethernet cards are compatible w/ the 200lx... I guess the standard
responce will be: any one that meets the power consumption requirements and
has drivers!

So, I guess that my questions should really be: does anyone know of a point
enabler for the kingston etherx KNE-PCM/T?

At the moment, the only cards known to work are:

Silicom
Accton EN2212
Accton EN2216
PLANET Credit Card Ethernet Adapter
MELCO LPC-TJ
Ethernet PCMCIA Card (with "UE2212" typed at the back)
Ethernet PCMCIA Card (with "UE2216" typed at the back)

All but the Silicom card work only because they are Accton
compatible.  Any card which works with the Accton drivers
will work.

The Silicom card is the ideal solution, but is hampered by
its usually higher cost and the fact that it will NOT work
with a double-speed palmtop.  The Accton cards will, but
there is no ODI driver for them, so you can't log into a
Netware server on the palmtop (the PCMMLID.COM file says
"Settings Error Occurred!" when run on the LX and doesn't
allow VLM or NETX to attach to the server).  I used the
packet driver ethernet card simulator, PDETHER, and the
packet driver IPX program PDIPX (from Intel) to "fake" an
ODI driver for VLM, and it attached fine to our Netware
3.12 server, but freezes when I login.

What would be great is if somebody could look in the SDK
and find out what / how the card enablers work, and make
one for other low-power network cards, and perhaps fix the
ODI driver for the Accton cards so we can login to Netware
servers more easily.  Many of us have networks at work and
would love to be able to access them on a double-speed
palmtop...

BTW, yesterday I stated that, after loading all the fake
Netware drivers, I had 500K free.  I was mistaken, it was
450K.

I have a U.S Logic (Computer City house brand) UE2212 compatible card.
(cat# 22-10294)  I have been playing around with the enabler and packet
drivers from Super and have this to report.

I Installed two new alkaline cells, installed PC card, turned on palmtop
(Battlog loaded in autoexec.bat) terminated system manager and loaded
op2216, loaded pd2212 and connected twisted pair to "dongle" on PC card
loaded PktDem (Simtel) and started watching "stuff" from the LAN roll
across the screen of the palmtop.  1.4 hours later I decided to do some
laundry and stopped the PktDem program, restarted the PIM on the palmtop
and ran Battlog's display EXM.  The cells had dropped from just over 3
volts to 2.39 volts.  I turned off the palmtop, removed the PC card and
within 10 minutes the batteries had returned to 2.80 volts where they
stayed for the next 20 minutes at which time I turned off the palmtop.

Sorry about the long breath.

Phil

Subject:      Re: CUT/PASTE in SC

Al,

Yes indeed you need to add the overhead of the original COMMAND.COM of DOS5.0
to the size of Snip'n Snap which makes it bulky.

I see two current options:

1) Gilles Kohl wrote an EXM prg to write and read the content of the clipboard
to/from a file (clipvue.exm). With a KEY200 combination, you could kind of
automate the process between SysMgr and some DOS apps by teaching KEY200 to
type File/Insert/clipvue.txt. This is fairly difficult to realize and even
more difficult to generalize to various non-standard DOS apps.

2) A number of free utilities have been written for DOS machines. DOSCLIP.COM
is only one example which only takes 2kb, an AltaVista search on DOS near
CLIP will certainly reveal a number of others. Some may be or may not be
compatible with SC and Sysmgr. I tried DOSCLIP.com in the past and it crashed
my HP under some circumstances so I did not proceed, but I am sure that one
of those little TSR will eventually work with the HP. It is just a matter of
testing them all.

Sterling,

My 32MB IBM Flash Disk has a 25MB Jammed File, a 1MB Secure Device file and
the remaining uncompresses.

You don't need Fdisk to partition a each volume (JAM, SecureDevice) are
indeed plain DOS files.

I know about Secure Device (not drive or am I wrong?) which works nicely on
the HP (albeit slow). It can even be loaded under a JAM disk. I tried SFS but
it did not work as it accesses the disk at a lower level.

Would it be too much "commercializing" to suggest the use of

Thanks to David Hart for his full comparision between AskSam and
InfoSelect. Someone has suggested that I also look at Lotus Agenda as its
free from Lotus.

I downloaded the image files and converted to floppies but loading it on my
desktop (Win 95), I'm told "not enough memory to install (same when tried
on the HP200LX of course). Anyone help with installation? And can anyone
comment whether it's worth bothering (essentially I'm looking for a text
based database that can run on the palmtop; I've got AskSam 2.0 on my
desktop and find it excellent for my needs there. But to have something
similar on the road would be great).

Thanks

Mine failed because I was using the older FTP/LX version. V0.7

Nothing weird w/WWW/LX! It was the use of an older version of

James,

Thanks for the monetary contribution, albeit its small size
(1/50th of $1).

I use the Palmtop a lot at the desk, and it means probably as
many as 6 fingers on the keys, and a thumb on the space bar.
That is why I thought Dvorak would be useful.

I have a Twiddler (http://www.handykey.com, BTW)... I like it
a great deal. Years ago, when employed at a traditional big
corporation, I used it extensively and developed an excellent
speed. Even used it in presentations. In one of them, I asked
for input from the audience and "twiddled" it into fields on
the screen, much to the surprise of the speakers, they thought
I held a simple "click forward and backward" device, and could
not imagine how I guessed in advance what they would say and
display it on the screen! :)

Well, this doesn't yield anymore information than I obtained with dir
_DAT and mem (or with chkdsk).  You see, as I mentioned, this is a
brand new unit straight out of the box, just powered up after I
inserted a battery for the first time.  There are no files on the C
drive except in the _DAT directory.  These get created automatically
from the hard reset process.

I have concluded, along with Service Merchandise, that this is a bum
unit.  I am currently negotiating with them to let me keep it (as a
1M unit) for a discount.  Otherwise, they are willing to exchange it
for a *real* 2M model.  Since I want this as a backup unit, I don't
mind whether it has 1M or 2M.  Were I to switch to this one, I would
swap out my X2 crystal and 4M memory card.  With the memory card, I
loose 1MB of internal RAM anyway...

Thanks for all the suggestions.  I never thought of how many ways
there were to check for free total memory!

Okay,

I am new on this list, and I appreciate the Service Merchandise heads up.
I the local stores in Columbus, OH are out of stock, but ... one can order
the HP200LX 2meg from the catalog.

The catalog number is hp200lx2azt.  Cost is 299.70 plus shipping and tax
(mine was 326.27 all together).

The phone number is 800-251-1212

The problem is a simple one, you saved the images to 1.44MB formatted floppies.

You need to format your floppies to 720KB to map the images correctly to your diskettes.

This is a great database for the management of a large number of small pieces of information in text format.
Extremely powerful and flexible.  If you have a real need for this program, there is nothing else like it.

The down side, because this program is so flexible, some people have problems getting a handle on how to use
the program.

Note - To run Agenda on a 200LX your need to 1) install it on your C: drive if you're using a flash RAM card
(speed!) and 2) run Agenda under MaxDOS.

If you decide to proceed with using Agenda, you might want to join the PIM-list listed below.

Go to Novell's web site and follow the links to support. I think the actual
URL for support is http://support.novell.com but I won't swear to it, start
at www.novell.com and you can find it. You may have to hunt through the
files but I think they still have the last version of the VLM client on
there, look for something like dosup9.exe.

Hi, Dave & List Member

There is a Demo version of AskSam DOS available at:
ftp://ftp.asksam.com/asksam/askdemo.exe

A few weeks ago I D/L it and it ran great on the palmtop.
But had no use for it.

My point was that you shouldn't be trying to read the map while you drive at
all, so I don't think magnifying it would help...

And I hate cell phones too.

A quick test (by setting my HP200 date to 2001) shows that
both DOS and the system manager see files created in 2001 as
newer than 1998 files.

Of course, this doesn't mean that any DOS applications you run
on the HPLX are Y2K compliant.  Programmers can store dates
any way they want (and do).

Long (cautionary) answer - Yes, but don't even think about running CHKDSK
or any other disk utility. Every directory entry contains a pointer to
the first cluster occupied by the file. From there, the OS reads the FAT
chain to find out the rest of the clusters used. So all you need to do is
create a directory entry for the alias, go in with a disk editor, and
change the starting cluster and size to point to the original file. But,
CHKDSK will report this as a cross-linked file, and try to fix it for
you. Then you can just hope that one of the two survives, and that you
can figure out which one it is. IOW, this is NOT A GOOD THING. Of course,
DOS 7 (WIN95) allows this in FAT with links. I haven't bothered studying
the details of the alterations to the directory structure which they use
for this.

Alternate answer - if it's all that important to be able to call a
utility by two names, why not create a batch file in the "alias" name to
call the original file. Just put placeholders for all the possible args &
switches. It'll tie up one cluster and a directory entry, but you can
achieve the needed results. It's also the _only_ way of handling internal
commands, such as aliasing "dir" with "list".

You'll need to create several small, permanent, files in the directory
you run your backup and restore operations from (I assume they are the
same directory, and you CD to it, not just include it to your path).
Format below is:
FILENAME.EXT
|       contents
|       contents
|       contents

/* comment about the file */

/* Just a carriage return. There are more elegant approaches, but this is
easy and obvious which some of the other stuff isn't. This file _must_ be

both, since it's a data file.

RESETDAT.BAT

BACKIT.BAT
|       xcopy c:\*.* a:\backdir /e /v
|       date < cr > backdate.bat

/* Use your regular backup routine. Xcopy is simple & straightforward,
except it doesn't do RHS files. The next line creates the batch file used
in RESETDAT.BAT. */

How it works:
Backit creates the batch file which will reset the date. This file will
consist of 2 lines:

BACKDATE.BAT (generated during backup process)

|       Current date is Wed 03-11-1998
|       Enter new date (mm-dd-yy):

When you execute the restore process and call RESETDAT.BAT, it invokes
BACKDATE.BAT as a child process (which will be returned from, so this
doesn't have to be the last line in your batch file). BACKDATE then
transfers (unconditional, but still in the child process) control to
CURRENT.BAT with the command string "date is Wed 03-11-1998". CURRENT
invokes the DATE command (%1 - argİ1¨) with the argument "03-11-1998" (%4
- argİ4¨), and returns control, not to BACKDATE (since we didn't "CALL"
CURRENT.BAT) but to RESETDAT.BAT, which can do any additional
housekeeping needed. Thus, we don't need an ENTER.BAT to keep from
getting a "Bad command of file name" message.

If you want this to also handle the time of your backup, you would need
to change directories, since the TIME command has only 4, not 5, words in
the first line. You would need to write a different CURRENT.BAT for time
(%1 %3). Note: it _is_ possible to prefix a path to the call to
CURRENT.BAT - requires another step, and is left as an exercise for the
reader (I'm too lazy to do it here - but I can think of at least 2 ways
which would work using only MS-DOS - one of which assumes access to a set
of DOS 5 diskettes).

The whole process assumes a nightly backup in the wee hours of the
morning since otherwise the date would be wrong. Sorry - I can't think of
an _easy_ way of keeping track of how old your backups are!

Was that what you were looking for?

Hi Randy!
I don't know if there is a one-step conversion from 200LX into Outlook. I
worked it out through the Connectivity Pack, with the translation utility.
The idea is to convert the contacts file (or files) into a CDF one, and t=
hen
take it from Outlook using the import/export assistant. However, this was=
n't
a simple and clean solution because the direct translation from the PDF i=
s
not recognized my the ConnPack (language conflict I guess). But saving th=
e
PDF as GDF and then converting works fine.
Of course, we're not talking about synchronization, just transfer. By the
way, I have to do this to transfer my contact files to my 620LX: the PIM
utility works with Schedule+, not with Outlook. (One step ahead, two step=
s
behind...)

Most (some) digital phone systems have provisions for what they call analog lines.  They can provide you with an
analog line which is transferred back to digital in the phone system hardware and then changed back again to
analog when it leaves your building.  The problem is bandwidth.  You lose some with every a-d conversion.  I can
only connect at work at 19,200 (at home I get the full 28.8).  See your in-house phone person and ask if they
have any spare "analog" connections you can use.

        Ok I'll bite.  Any idea how Magnify works with PC Study Bible?  The
200lx Zoom feature is a real pain with this program.  I would also be
interested in viewing maps on my GPS equiped LX.
        Garmin is now marketing a GPS with a tiny display specifically for
automotive use called the Street Pilot.  I think Garmin expects drivers
to try an look at the display and drive at the same time.

Haven't tried this one, but thought I remembered a utility that could
convert WinDoze .ico files to palmtop .icn format.  Finally found it
listed in the Nov/Dec 1995 Palmtop Paper.  It's on the '95 - '96
subscriber disk.  It is part of a program stored as IBRWS100.EXE (self
extracting file).  If you're interested & I can find the disk, I can
send it to you (or to Mitch for SUPER).

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

Please allow me to ask some basic questions about rechargeable
batteries.
- Is there a kind of formula to calculate the charging time needed by
200LX (by manual, it has 100mA of fast charging) if we have one pair of
-lets say 1100 mAh batteries ?  Assume that we start from brand new
batteries.  BTW how much is the voltage on-average of a brand new
battery?

- If we see NiCd or NiMH battery, it mentions that the voltage is 1.2V
so that 2 batteries in a series supposed to have 2.4V.  While 200lx will
start to report low battery if the voltage comes down to 2.4V but OTOH
we are still using these 1.2V rechargeable batteries in our palmtops
safely, so what is actually happening with this labelled-voltage?

- I am using Varta 1100mAH in my 200LX and by using BCC I found that max
voltage I could reach is 2.79V.  But as soon as I finish charging after
the voltage reach this figure, BCC reported lower voltage such as
2.62V.  And in fact without being plugged with adaptor, it will further
go down easily to around 2.51V.  And just at the level of 2.40-2.51V, my
batteries have more resistance which it should have =;)
My question is whether this is common situation or will vary to some
degree depend on battery or I still haven't found yet the optimum level
of charging.

------------Cut here------------

I have just finished converting the "1997 Griffith's 5
Minute Clinical Consultant" to HTML format for HP200LX palmtops.
This is a medical reference book with brief overviews of several
hundred medical conditions.  A demo is available at two
locations:

 www.palmtop.net
 www.dasoft.com

It is 5MCCDEMO.ZIP.  Extract it using the -d parameter to
preserve the directory structure.  It will create a directory
called 5MCCDEMO and install the files in there.  Once
installed, you may delete the 5MCCDEMO.ZIP file.  You will need
a HTML viewer to use this package.  A good freeware HTML viewer
is HV by Andreas Garzotto, which can be found at the D&A web
site (www.dasoft.com).  The package was designed for
HP200LX palmtops, but was briefly tested on a WinCE palmtop
as well.  Please look at the README.TXT file first.

Actually if you mean Win95 shortcuts, they don't exist in the FAT file system,
they are "DDE" (I think) objects that only Win95 knows about (talk about the
"wrong" way to do something).  Long file names, on the otherhand, do exist in
the file system tagged as Hidden, System, ReadOnly Volume labels (or
something like that), that must be "next to" the "real" 8.3 name entry .

Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit

Excuse me for pursuing this but I just don't see the flaw in my
suggestion. Perhaps I misunderstood the question. So.. I pulled out my 2
meg HP200LX and tried the suggestion I offered to you. My C: drive is
divided into 1376 K of drive space and 636 K Ram ( which gives 2 megs
total system memory resources). After executing the "dir /s" command on
my c drive the display informed me that I am using

509,970 bytes used for files and
858,624 bytes free which add up to

1,368,594 bytes total c: hard drive space.

When I add this to the 640 K or 655,360 bytes I get 2,023,954 bytes
which is roughly 2 megs (1976.5 K   + / -  ). Looking at these numbers I
feel re-assured that my unit is a 2 meg unit. I also ran chkdsk /f which
informed me that I have

532,992 bytes used for files and
858,624 bytes free which add up to

1,391,616 bytes total c: hard drive space.

The discrepency in file size between "dir" and "chkdsk" is a product of
the units "cluster size." I believe the directory listing reports the
actual size (logical size) of all the files and the chkdsk summary tells
how much space is actually consumed (the physical size, which is the
"actual" amount being used by the hard drive) to hold these files based
on the cluster size of drive c. (which I assume you are familar with)

I mention all of this because I have read the comments that you sent me
i.e.

> Well, this doesn't yield anymore information than I obtained with dir

True enough, but the numbers you get from a "dir" seem to be all you
need. The numbers will either add up to 2 megs or it won't thus
indicating whether your new unit is really a 2 meg unit. I still do not
see the problem with this method. Perhaps because of the midterms I have
been studying for ( 2 tomorrow ) I am just too numb to see the flaw in
my suggestion. In any event, it seems like you are getting a good deal
if it is a 2 meg unit and perhaps a better deal ( because of the extra
discount ) if it is not a true 2 meg unit.

There is no flaw.  It just seems that, despite numerous re-initializations of
the internal memory, his "2MB unit" is actually only a 1MB unit.  What it could
be is that a palmtop-savvy thief bought the unit in the first place, opened it
up, ripped out the 1MB memory module, closed up the unit, and returned it.
They probably wouldn't see the difference, and it's just repackaged and resold
to the next buyer.

Or, of course, it could just be a defective memory card or mislabeled machine.

This is for all of you who have asked for a copy of the text viewers
that I have. I didn't want you to think I was ignoring you. Because of
midterms I have not put them together yet. BUT, friday night after my
test in lab I will and then I will e-mail them to you. I was pleasantly
surprised at the response. Since they were all shareware or freeware
(except perhaps the IBM e-editor - but hey - sue me) I will also e-mail
a copy to the SUPER site so the site admistrator can consider posting
them there.

Thanks again for all the courteous requests,

The vi seems to be ripped out of the MKS toolkit and is probably as good
as you expect commercial product to be (back then :-). This holds true for
sh as well and they shouldn't really be distributed. There may be others
as well, I didn't check.

I couldn't find out which version it was.

What I *meant* was that I didn't think that dir /s would turn up a
missing megabyte that wasn't apparent with just dir or chkdsk on a
brand new, just reset, unit.  Thanks for pointing out the difference
between the dir and chkdsk results.  If only that would account for
the missing 1MB!!!

Well, they haven't yet offered me any discount.  But I was promised
that they would contact me by tomorrow, if not sooner.

During my discussions recently with the manager at my local Service
Merchandise store, I learned something interesting about how
defective merchandise is handled.

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

Frank,

I run the company that produces WWW/LX Plus, so I'll give you
as much facts as I know. Whete I have opinions, well... I am

I don't know how to tell you about dialling speed, mostly it
seems to me to be a function of the ISP, no?

Sure, you can use even 300, but watch paint dry is not a taks
for me. Also, there may be some timing problems with very slow
modems, since login depends to some extent on timing.

> html pages I suppose you must use at least 14k4 bps. Doing that how =
smooth is

We recommend at least 9600.

The wait times? for what? You mean for the ISP and the
clogging of Internet arteries? That is not a feature or
function of WWW/LX Plus, but of your communication lines, ISp,
how busiy the backbone is etc, nothing to do with WWW/LX!

It is slower to process GIFs than a Pentium 133MHz, naturally,
that chip in the palmtop pokes at 7.9MHz.

slow.

I have near Zero experience with NetTamer, but I have a lot of
respect for that program! Someone else can answer that.

GIFs we can do directly, i.e. you'll see text, images, text
mixed on the page. (it is called "inline images"). JPEGs we do
not do in HV (the HTML "painting" program) Instead, HV will
D/L the image, then ask you if you want to view it with LXPIC,
if you specified LXPIC as your external viewer. If you say
yes, display, LXPIC paints the picture on the screen. When you
are done, go back to HV.

BTW, I turned LXPIC v6.0 to also do GIFs. Then when LXPIC
kicked in on an animated GIF, I pressed V in LXPIC, and voila
- Animated GIFs on the palmtop! Works nicely! Our Web page has
a few, so you can try it. Try the one right below my picture!
:)

There is another way too. In this method we will have to be
licensed to utilise certain APIs to communicate directly from
HV to LXPIC. We have not done that licensing yet, although
Stefan and I talked about it at one point.

Hope all this helps.

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

Well -- unless you wait outside the factory gate for just-manufactured
& charged cells, there's really no such thing as brand new batteries!=

The ones you find on the retailer's shelf may have been there days or
weeks, and be partially discharged.  That's why the package says to
charge before use.

This is the nominal, average voltage of the cells in use.  The palmtop
works below this (mine gives the lo-bat warning at about 2.35 or a
little lower).

All batteries have some internal resistance.  When charging, the
measured voltage is the cell voltage + (charge current * internal
resistance).  The drop from 2.79 to 2.61 as soon as charging stops
seems way too high though.  My RS NiMH also stall at 2.79 V, but only
drop to 2.70 - 2.73 immediately after charge stops.  Without the
adapter, the measured voltage is the no-load voltage - (load current=
 *
internal resistance).

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

I tried the palmtop.com service being offered for free and just wanted to
pass a suggestion to anyone trying to connect using a Mhz XJ3144 modem
(the cellular model...I know you're out there).

Using the default modem settings (only Hayes.mdm is provided in d:\_dat),
the modem resets and dials apparently OK. With the speaker turned on, I
can hear the dialling, ringing and the connect...then a msg comes up 'call
not established'.

Tried the same thing using a spare XJ1144 modem and it worked.

Anyway, the XJ3144 reference guide suggests using the following init
string for ccMail Remote:

        AT&F&C1&D2&S1&MWS95=0

and this works. Email me if you need details on where to set the string.

The other thing is that the XJ1144 connects at 19200, but the XJ3144
connects at 14400.

Kinda neat being able to do email while running several other apps
(ccMail, Filer, Appt, Phone, NoteTaker, StopWatch, Memo, PQ, HPCalc...now
just watch it tumble down <g> ). I'll probably change my mind after the
next phone bill.

The only real problem I can see with Y2K is with Lotus spreadsheets.

Dates will require wider columns because years greater than 1999 with display in 4 digits.  Examples:

      12-Mar-98      Mar-98      03/12/98
      12-Mar-2001    Mar-2001    03/12/2001

Luckily, this is a minor adjustment that will only impact spreadsheet displays and not results.

Not true - you can hexedit command.com and replace all mentions of "DIR" with
"LST", for example. Of course, you can only use aliases with the same number of
letters. And make sure you type in caps, unless you want to disable the command
altogether.

I used this method in high school as a security measure to keep people from
tampering with DOS-based machines:

Give all dos commands cryptic names (DIR becomes QZX, COPY becomes PMFY, etc)
and then make batch files called TYPE.BAT, DIR.BAT, etc which run a program
that says, say, "Get out of here!¬G¬G¬G¬G¬G"

To let legit people use it, i called the original COMMAND.COM <password>.COM.
That way, legit people could open up a dos prompt, type the password, and get
access to all the normal dos commands.

Of cout
Of course, to keep people from seeing the password, i used a prompt with the
ansi escape sequence to make the text black on black. I also put in the ansi
escape sequence to remap ":" to ";" This prevented people from typing
"a:command.com"

By the way, if this message doesn't show up on the 200LX mailing list in an
hour or so, could you forward it there? I've been having difficulty posting.

Subject:      1000LX ROMS
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

        As someone who thinks in weird and fantastic ways, I find myself wondering
at the 1000LX.  I wonder at whether anyone has knowledge of a 'development
kit' or similar for writing 1000LX roms, and also whether or not there
would be any interest in third-party roms for the device.  Say something a
great deal like Mack's company, except rather than upgrades, you'd ask for
a certain ROM package or revision, send away your 1000LX, and they'd
install it and send it back to you...  Say with special versions of
different things.
        I've not the technical expertise to do such a thing, however, the idea
intrigues me, and I find myself wanting to purchase a 1000LX and a PROM
burner to play with.

Good question.  The internal resistance is only an effective measure,
not something like an actual resistor.

The effective resistance in use would be:
        (No-load V-loaded V)/load current   for example
No-load V  2.65
Loaded V   2.59
Load current 50 mA
        2.65-2.59=3D.06  .06/.05=3D1.2 ohms

BTW - the effective resistance may be different depending on the
direction of current (charging or discharging), and probably also
changes a little during use.

Just received my 32MB upgrade.  Very nice indeed.  LXPPP programming
should really speed up now that I can recompile with Borland C to fix
a protocol bug without having to disconnect from the TCP/IP connection
oor take the modem out of the slot :-)

Mack did a single day turn-around for me again (I sent it Monday, he
received it Tuesday, upgraded it Tuesday night and sent it back on
Wednesday, and I received it today). I received exactly the same
impeccable level of service last year when I did the 4MB upgrade
(which Mack allows you to trade in when you get the 32MB upgrade).

You just can't ask for better service !

That sounds fishy to me. If that was the case no retail outlet would accept
returns on defective items, they would tell you to send it back to the
factory. Also, when something is sent back to the factory they relace it
under warranty, they don't just give you 10-20% of the value. This sounds
like a manager trying to convince someone not to return something,
especially since they are discontinuing the item.

Pete

PS. This reminds me of the one about good returned products. They are not
supposed to be resold as new but you know that every store in the country
has a shrink wrap machine in the back and many products do end up back on
the shelf as new.

Be aware that even though the unit may indicate on the shell that it
is a "2MB RAM", this includes the drive space as well as the memory
used for running the applications.

If you go into the Setup screen in the System Manager by doing a
ctrl-filer key press combination, you'll see in the upper-left hand
corner a box showing 2 numerals, the "System RAM" and the "RAM Disk".
These two numbers should add up to 2MB.

You will only have a portion of the 2MB for your RAM disk, depending
on how much you indicate for system memory in which to run your apps.

Hi :-)

I am considering making small apps that will run on the 200LX. The will
be for my use but has anyone used dbase compiler (dbase 3 and 4) to make
an app for the 100 or 200 LX with success ?

Cheers

To all interested:

There is going to be another palmtop user's group meeting on Wednesday, April
1st, at 7:30pm.  The meeting location is Mountain Mike's Pizza, in Morgan Hill,
CA.  Please contact me at childers@garlic.com if you need directions or for
more information (Frank!) :).

The purpose of the meeting is to help other user's out by sharing information,
shareware, etc.  Any type of palmtop computer is welcome (even the WinCE
models!).  If anyone has anything interesting to bring for technical "show and
tell", please do!  Examples of the equipment that will be there:

The new "turbo" 32MB, 2x 200LX
320LX w/ WinCE 2.0
Megahertz Allpoints radio modem
HP 110 Portable Plus (the precursor to the 200LX, for an evolutionary example)

One word:  "WOW!"
I can't believe this is the same machine.  Not only do I have more disk storage
than my old 386 (it had a 20MB hard disk), but it runs at the same clock speed!
 I've loaded the machine full of everything I could get my hands on, and still
I have 10MB of C: available!  <big grin>  The speed upgrade really made a huge
difference in performance... Now I can load my 125K California Amateur Radio
database in a jiffy!

On a related note, I'd like to commend Mack and Times2Tech on a job well done.
I sent my machine off via 2nd day air, and Mack turned it around instantly.  I
had it back within four days.  A job well done!

I highly recommend the speed upgrade and a RAM expansion to anyone!  If you use
the palmtop for any applications other than basic PIM, you need this!

Yes - you turn out to be right :( I didn't realise at first.

Having had a look, I would like to buy it; but I've heard that the
Toolkit is $399... I think I'll just delete it.

I agree.

The other utilities are v good versions - they don't say "MKS"... but
may be.

Not true - you can hexedit command.com and replace all mentions of "DIR"
with
"LST", for example. Of course, you can only use aliases with the same
number of
letters. And make sure you type in caps, unless you want to disable the
command
altogether.

I used this method in high school as a security measure to keep people
from
tampering with DOS-based machines:

Give all dos commands cryptic names (DIR becomes QZX, COPY becomes PMFY,
etc)
and then make batch files called TYPE.BAT, DIR.BAT, etc which run a
program
that says, say, "Get out of here!¬G¬G¬G¬G¬G"

To let legit people use it, i called the original COMMAND.COM
<password>.COM.
That way, legit people could open up a dos prompt, type the password, and
get
access to all the normal dos commands.

Of cout
Of course, to keep people from seeing the password, i used a prompt with
the
ansi escape sequence to make the text black on black. I also put in the
ansi
escape sequence to remap ":" to ";" This prevented people from typing
"a:command.com"

By the way, if this message doesn't show up on the 200LX mailing list in
an
hour or so, could you forward it there? I've been having difficulty
posting.

OMG - Did I actually say "list"? I didn't think it was possible to be
away from Unix that long! Well, there's always hope.

I want to buy a 4MB Flash Card and cables for my HP 200LX.
If anybody know of any dealers in Canada for this please let me know.
I live in Ontario, near Toronto.

Also, does the Transfile program from HP allow you to add to view/edit the
database files ?

        I would be interested to know how the computer thinking times are for a
good match... I remember being impatient playing Chess games on my 486 so I
hope it wouldn't be too unbareable on the HP...

A buddy at work is trying to get a program to work and it fails
saying it needs a math co-processor, I could swear that I've seen
emulators that would enable him to use this program on his 200lx. If
you have any insight into this it would be much appreciated.

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

A couple of people have responded, but the EM87 program on
SUPER is the one verified to work.  Now, it may not be
FAST, but it allows you to run programs that need a
coprocessor.  I use it to run AutoSketch 1.0, and it works
great.

I am considering using Word 5.5 or WP 5.1 in the HP200LX. Does the print
preview function in either of these programs work on the HP?

I was using my single speed 200lx the other night. I was working in memo. I
received several beeps, but no messages. I closed the memo and checked the
batteries. They were OK. I tried to restart memo and was dropped to the DOS
prompt with the Divide overflow error message.

I searched the manual to no avail. I tried resetting the computer with the
three finger salute (ctrl-alt-del). I tried the ctrl-alt-on without resetting
the ram. Still the same message. I finally removed all batteries, which
corrected the problem.

What happened? Any ideas? Any way to prevent this?

Thanks,
Dennis Vest

BTW, 5meg 200lx, single speed, no Buddy, no TSRs.

I've done print preview in WP51 on the palmtop.  It was
QUITE handy.  Unfortunately, WP51 kept locking up for some
reason, so I removed it and am now using Works 3.0 for DOS
and/or Word 1.1 for Windows, depending on how GUI I want
it. :)

Anyone get Nettamer to work with Sprint's dial-up PPP service?  Mine keeps
disconnecting after the password is sent.  The sprint script which comes
with Nettamer looks like it was designed for their older service (FWIW, I'm
using Sprint Canada).

I've never gotten NetTamer to work, so I'm not qualified to
give suggestions, but...

Have you tried dialing your PPP number with a straight
terminal program like Datacomm or (from a desktop)
HyperTerminal in Win95?  Then you can SEE what happens and
put it in the script...

That's what I did with my bizarre BBS-PPP interfaced ISP,
with WWW/LX.

Look in shareware collections for EM87.  It's supposed to emulate an
80287 or 80387 math coprocessor, but it seems to work well with the HP's
pseudo 80187.

The ones on Word 5 and 5.5 work.  Word 5 is very fast, and  pretty easy,
once you get used to it, which doesn't take long.  There is a learning
program for Word 5 that came with the program, if you can find it.

DM-650/144
This is just days after I saw someone (David Sargeant?) post a list of
cards known to work with the 200lx and of course I can't find the
message despite the fact that I thought I filed it away.

So the point of this inquiry is to check and see if anyone has had any
experience with the D-Link data/fax/ethernet combo card (model:
DM-650/144).  I would like to buy one (found a hot deal) if it is known
to work.

Thanks,

Stan

Yes, I am/was aware of this.  That is why I added total RAM disk
capacity to DOS memory to compute the machine's total RAM.  It
only came out to 1MB.  No matter how I measured or added the
numbers.

The machine is packed up for return to Service Merchandise, who
is sending out a UPS call ticket (?) to have it returned pre-paid.
The new replacement unit was located yesterday and is in the mail.

I was told by the lady at Service that these sale units are getting
*very* hard to find now.  They no longer show up as in stock over
their mail order system, and they have to poll stores individually
to find the remaining stock.  If you guys want any, better ack quick.

Hi
I try to find a copy of Autosketch
at a swap meeting but I coudn't.
I thought it didn't need a coprocessor.
(am I wrong?)
is it faster than acad 2.6 or 10?
I try both but they are realy to slow.
regards
Alain

I'm excited here... are you implying that I can run ACAD 10 on my
palmtop??? Please advise fast!  Now I wouldn't be surprised about
2.6, but I have no idea as to its capabilities.  Is it available
anywhere for download?  I own version 10, but that's the earliest
version I have. (I run it on my desktop).

You sure are grumpy, and your email at <tom@LENIN.PAS.ROCHESTER.EDU>

To All:

In a recent post, (below), I am afraid I left an impression
that I use the Twiddler on the palmtop. I don't. The second
paragraph talked about "diddler" which I identified as
Twiddler, and posted abouy my experience with it on THE
DESKTOP!!!

Sorry for all the misunderstanding.

The problem with the Twiddler on palmtop is that it has to
connections: One to the game port and the other to serial, I
believe. It requires it for power and typing. So the problem
is obvious. There was a suggestion in HPHAND by Angelica
Wilson on how to create battery power for the device. I do not
have the detals, sorry.

In Handykey's web page, I believe there are some schematics
about the circuitry - maybe it can help someone more savvy
than I make an adaptation.

again, sorry if I mislead more than the two people who wrote
to ask for details.

I played with this a while ago. The LX200 is fully Y2K compliant, but won't
go past some odd future date, like 2056 or something odd. Sorry I don't
have the exact date on hand.

After running a couple of test programs on the LX, I was pleased to find that
the only trouble they ran into was that the real-time clock was not y2k
compatible.  This is okay; since the 200LX doesn't have a real one, there's not
much chance that it COULD be. :-)

To all interested:

There is going to be another palmtop user's group meeting on Wednesday, April
1st, at 7:30pm.  The meeting location is Mountain Mike's Pizza, in Morgan Hill,
CA.  Please contact me at childers@garlic.com if you need directions or for
more information (Frank!) :).

The purpose of the meeting is to help other user's out by sharing information,
shareware, etc.  Any type of palmtop computer is welcome (even the WinCE
models!).  If anyone has anything interesting to bring for technical "show and
tell", please do!  Examples of the equipment that will be there:

Looking forward to seeing you there!

I'm concerned that I've seen several people that had this same (or similar)
problem.  It seems to be happening with modified (that is increased memory
or increased clock speed ) machines.   Is there a timing problem that is
occuring with the 2X clock that is causing the lockups?  Does the increased
memory cause some increased power consumption?  Does the TSR's that come
with the machines cause some other problem when executing some code?

I've used my HP200LX-1Meg for over 2 years with no problem whatsoever.

Subject:  Help-Divide overflow




I was using my single speed 200lx the other night. I was working in memo. I
received several beeps, but no messages. I closed the memo and checked the
batteries. They were OK. I tried to restart memo and was dropped to the DOS
prompt with the Divide overflow error message.
I searched the manual to no avail. I tried resetting the computer with the
three finger salute (ctrl-alt-del). I tried the ctrl-alt-on without
resetting
the ram. Still the same message. I finally removed all batteries, which
corrected the problem.
What happened? Any ideas? Any way to prevent this?
Thanks,
Dennis Vest
BTW, 5meg 200lx, single speed, no Buddy, no TSRs.

Subject:      Looking for cc:Mail Remote Import/Export for DOS 1.0
Mime-Version: 1.0 (generated by tm-edit 7.108)
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

For the PPP <-> cc:Mail interface I'm developing for LXPPP (the
HP200LX PPP Development Kit available at my website listed below), I
need to access the cc:Mail files on the palmtop.

A respected member of this group has told me that his ex-partner was
sued by Lotus for reverse-engineering the file formats.

For this reason, I am investigating a more lawyer-friendly route by
using Lotus' own import/export programs (which should be available to
all palmtop users, as we have cc:Mail remote installed on the
palmtop).

Does anyone have the cc:Mail Remote Import/Export for DOS 1.0 package?

If so, could you please send it to me or send me a URL from which I
can download it?

It's supposed to be freely available on Lotus' support BBS (see
http://www.ccmail.com/overview/IMPEXP.HTM), but I can't find it there
under any of the file areas.

It should include at least the RIMPORT.EXE and REXPORT.EXE files to be
useful for me.

Once I have these files, then I can modify LXPOP to read and write the
files that RIMPORT.EXE and REXPORT.EXE require, thereby providing a
PPP to cc:Mail solution on the palmtop which should not upset Lotus.

All -

While web-surfing to Viking Components to learn about FlashRAM cards, I
found they have PCMCIA modems as well, including a 33k6 one that is
cellular-ready.

The web site claims ->>> 13ma <<<- current draw!!!

I e-mailed them:

        I was startled to see on your web site that you cite "13ma" for
        both the 33k6 and the 56k PCMCIA products: startled because this
        is 1/10 of what I would have expected.

        I would like to confirm this number with you: Is it true that your
        33k6 cellular-capable PCMCIA modem will draw only 13ma from the
        PCMCIA slot when *in use and on line*?

I received the following reply:

        The modems do draw only 13 mA of power.

This was from Neil Knack, Technical Support, Viking Components, Inc.

Right now, I have an EXP-LXM8, but I will eventually be getting a larger
FlashRAM card and a faster modem card. If anyone is in the market for a
fast modem NOW, and they decide to try _this_ one, PLEASE let the list
know how well it works, and (if you're one of those set up to make current
measurements) whether it REALLY is this good!

I saw it on WP5.1. Of course it all looks like dribbles of

John,

> How do they measure the internal resistance of the battery?

I don't know exactly, but there are fairly accurate methods.
There aome batteries that have more internal resistance than
others. MiCD's resistance grows as they are charged more, as
NiMH's.

Some alkalines are so resistant that they cannot service some
PCMCIA cards, due to the demand for current, which they
"refuse" to deliver, causing the voltage to drop so
precipitously as to be in danger of reset, I think these are
Duracells? HP used to send these in the BOX! After we told
them they changed batteries. (The batteries themselves were
excellent - but they were ill-suited to the palmtop!)

The drop in voltage  experienced varies from one set of
batteries to another. I have a set of NiMH that will go as
high as 2.99v, then drop to 2.80. The drop means ABSOLUTELY
nothing. miNH niminally are a 1.2v so they should operate
there (at 2.4v!)

The ONLY THING THAT IS IMPORTANT!!!! is this: Once your
battery drops to whereever, HOW LONG DOES IT STAY THERE?

The se I mentioned above will stay at 2.80 for maybe 1 hour,
then after 2-3 hours will settle at 2.43-2.45v and stay there
for about 9-10 hours, for a total service of 13-14 hours which
is great. The only important thing about a battery is how much
service it provides, at some tolerable voltage (for palmtops
over 2.40v to be safe.)

The rest of the stuff is a waste of time to concentrate on,
really!

This battery brand is good. BCC is an old freeware by my
company which is not a real good piece of software to use. I
recommend ABC/LX, but we also sell it, so let someone else
give you feedback on that program.

The drop in voltage is nothing to be concerned with. The most
important factor to be concerned with is HOW LONG the battery
stays in a service range i.e. over 2.40v or so. All the
calculations, and so on is meaningless, because your next set
of batteries will behave completely differently, in all
likelihood. Don't waste your time, get a decent battery
charging monitor (ours! :) of course, if you ask me) and
forget about it, use your time for something productive and
useful that charging and tracking minutes of service on your
batteries. Read a book or something, pet a dog, SOMETHING more
interesting than squeezing 2 minutes more out of the poor
little battery. Let's get real about this all: The cost is
minor compared to the palmtop cost, and all the gadgets around
it, but we spend more time on that than really important items
like a rigorous philosophy of backing up important,
irreplacable data! Does that make sense?

And I sell the software for that, phew... :)

This is a job for... IPX-Packet MAN!

All the mess I was in had to do with backing-up via network.

For those who are interested, the Accton ethernet cards can be found
at www.firstsource.com by searching for EN2216.  $60!  A
great price.

Now, if only someone would figure out how to make them log
into a Netware server, it would all be perfect.  (Hint
hint!)  :-)

Yep.. already got a backup plan in place... I put my 15MB flash in
the slot when I plug it in at nite, before I go to bed, and a macro runs
at 2:00am that uses PKZIP to compress/copy the c: contents to the
flash, and copies the contents of f: to the root of the flash card, uncompressed.
That way, if it does dump, I can insert my flash, and be back up and running
with a minimum of data loss and hassle.

Now that astonishment has worn off, start thinking seriously
about how to bak this up! You'll end up losing data unless it
is backed up. The 32MB v: drive is a different animal in that
sense.

Avi et. all,

        The most convient way is a 32 meg flash card.  It may very well be the
most cost effective.  Consider the posibility of loosing your data when
away from home.  Having a back up with you might just save your tail.
If you rely on your LX for business, a flash card is the cheap solution.

To connect to a Netware server you needed the following files per. the
PTP January / February 1997.

op2216.exe
pd2212.com
ne2000.com
netx.exe
pdipx.com

It states that you can use a batch file.
Example:

Netstart.bat =3D :

op2216.exe
pd2212.com -n 0x61 5
pdipx.cpm
netx.exe

According to the new Palmtop Paper, it's $375.

One of the unusual things about Times2 Tech's 32MB upgrade is that the
32MB drive uses much less power than the internal drive.  This is good
because, if your main batteries are removed or go dead, and your backup
battery is weak, your motherboard drive may be erased, but the 32MB drive
has a good chance of coming through with its data intact.  Of course,
TOTAL power failure will erase it, but I've had mine apart twice and had
the on-motherboard drive go blank each time, but the 32MB drive retained
its contents.

Now that I think about it, this may be confusing for people who don't have
the 32MB upgrade.  This is how it works: whatever ram you have built on
the motherboard (1mb or 2mb) becomes the only drive visible when you boot
clean, with no drivers.  Putting RD32.SYS in the config.sys file allows
access to the 32MB drive as drive F:, and RD32SWAP (or other disk swapping
utilities) can then be used to change the small C: drive for the 32MB
drive, and your small drive becomes F:.  There are two chief advantages to
this system over the way the 4MB and 8MB upgrades work (where it's
automatically added to the size of your C: drive).  One, RD32.SYS provides
much faster access than the built-in disk, on the order of twice as fast.
Two, when you do "Initialize RAM disk? Yes," it doesn't erase your 32MB
drive.

If I've confused anybody, please let me know.  :-)

Thanks for the tip!  I was running PDETHER and then PDIPX, which was causing
trouble.  Using the setup mentioned here, I was finally able to log into my
Netware 3.12 server.  However, it then freezes up after mapping two drives...

If the 32MB upgrade RAM is twice as fast as system RAM, will this make large databases run appreciably faster,
or is CPU speed the main culprit?

I read the Viking modem brochure and it claimed 144 mA operating and 13 mA
standby- still pretty good.

Hi,

        The phrase "they really cook" comes to mind.  Yes they run faster,
especially if you are used to running off a flash card.  For example it
takes 1 min, 20 seconds to search the Bible for Alpha and Omega (only in
the last book) on a standard LX running off a HP 20 meg flash card.  The
double speed 32 meg LX does this in 18 seconds with the program stored
in ram.  Wow!

Depends on what you're doing... CPU speed is critical for searching and what
not, but loading and saving will definitely go faster on the 32MB drive.

I have programs (Agenda) now that can not run off an ATA flash RAM card because of
speed.  Luckily I have a 4MB 200LX, so this has not become an issue.  This upgrade
seems to be really calling my name.  Now, if only the price was a little more
reasonable.

I agree. 449.00 for just the memory upgrade is really steep.

Good point Avi.

OTOH, an interesting aspect of the internal 32mb to consider is the added
security also (maybe).

Users with a large flash card have to generally password protect each
individual file to get some measure of protection.

Now, with a 32mb internal drive, you can just use a power-on password. The
only way to get past the password would be to initialize the internal
drive which I'm assuming will take out the big guy too....right or wrong?

The plan sounds good. Simple and workable. Now it is so much

No, initializing the internal RAM doesn't erase the 32MB drive.  It must be
erased using RD32INIT, a program provided with the upgrade.  It's tough to
kill.  Even low battery conditions that erase the on-motherboard RAM will leave
the 32MB drive untouched.  (Total power loss will destroy it, of course).

It might be possible for Mack to modify the RD32.SYS driver to include a
password protection feature, but that might not be practical.  Also it might
slow down the 32MB drive access, and oen of the bonuses of the 32MB upgrade is
its super-speed.  :-)

So if a fellow Nettamer user can offer some advice, I'd be tickled.

Ok...so from this post I know where to get mirc, and I know the channel to
tune into, but you gave no indication of what/where/when/how/who Dal net is.
I'm not a newbie around here, but I'm not so familiar with irc that I'd be
able to say, "Oh, Dal net! Wow, love that place. Think I'll visit!"

How about a little more information for the not so irc literate portion of our
brains.

Thanks, Alex

Wounderfull post. Tell me, did you take lessons in rudeness or did it
come naturaly. To answer your question, you get mirc, click on the
folder icon in the toolbar, scroll down the list of servers, and select
"Random dalnet server".

Dal net is one of the primary internet realy chat networks.

Back when 10mHz 8088's were a hot setup, specifying a STACKS value in

STACKS=0,0

or

What do you mean with the source? As far as I know, You can't buy PCGLOBE
5.0 anymore. The only source I know is MY source- my collection of DOS
programs. So if you want PCGLOBE 5.0, give me an offer which kind of
program you would like to trade...

The speed and having the memory internal is a great advantage.  I just
haven't been able
to justify the price in my mind for this upgrade.  A lower cost would
definately motivate me!
But there's a whole new batch of WinCE v2.0 units about ready to hit the
market and 3Com
(Palmpilot) and Microsoft are about to do major battle with the WinCE
units.  More features,
less money, more power....etc.

I have programs (Agenda) now that can not run off an ATA flash RAM card
because of
speed.  Luckily I have a 4MB 200LX, so this has not become an issue.  This
upgrade
seems to be really calling my name.  Now, if only the price was a little
more
reasonable.

Hi Thomas:

     I haven't been a serious nettamer user for a while, but have used
it in the past. Uncle Dave got married a while back, and since then,
his support has not been as prompt as in previouse years. Let me offer
the following suggestions though.

- Upgrade to the 10.1 revision. I think I recall the 1.09 rev being=
 a
bit buggy.

- Try sending your help request to MS.NETTTAMER@MCI2000.COM or
NETTAMER@CEI.NET rather than "Uncle Dave".

- There used to be a Mail List for Nettamer, I'm sure someone there
could help you.

Cheers,

Subject:      32 MB upgrade

Hey everyone -

Not being in the business of producing, repairing, or doing anything with
the Palmtops except use it for important data keeping, I have to disagree
with the people who have complained about the price for the 32MB upgrade.
I haven't done it yet, expect that I will, and when I do it will be based
on the response of the people who have done it. It seems like it will be
more than worth the price. I have a 10MB (stacked to 20MB), and just
going from 2 to 5 MB onboard was a big step up. I am pretty sure that
once I can swing it, I will buy the 32 MB upgrade just to have all that
hard drive space available. Right now, I still have room, but I did have
to make decisions about what to leave out, and I pay a time penalty for
stacker. I look forward to having 31 MB available for disk space and not
suffering a speed penalty and not having to choose what to load. I was
impressed with how fast doubling the speed of my HPLX had on its
performance, and I have also found it interesting that I have come to be
blase about it so quickly. Think of what you would have paid for 32 MB
plain old EDO RAM as recently as two years ago - and now add in the
engineering costs to make this work on an HPLX, and then throw in the
fact that if we want guys to continue to develop these upgrades, they
have to make a profit. I think it is a more than reasonable price right
now.

I don't the backup issue is all that big of a deal. Of course, if you
lose information the road, it would be a problem, but I could keep ALL
the data files I need, and several of the software programs that I would
want to use on my 10 MB Flash card, which would be impervious to data
loss due to a loss of power on the main unit. Right now, I have a
detailed appointment book schedule, phone book with over 300 entries,
database on the 130 people at my workplace, many (30) spreadsheets, a
years worth of quicken data, and many program source code files, but all
that put together probably doesn't come up to 3 MB of perishable data. I
back up my ram disk weekly to the flashdisk and the whole kit and
kaboodle monthly. I just don't see this as an issue.

Brian

     Hi!
     I just can not let this go. Did you say Win CE? This must be the
     slowest non conforming Op Sys in the universe. Just try convert a Word
     file to or from Win CE to the desktop. Try and have more then one
     phone book, try and put a data base file on flash card, and on and
     on.....  No thank you. I stay with my cracked 4MB single speed 200LX
     thank you.

Palmtop People,

        With all do respect, this continued whining about the cost of the 32
meg upgrade is uncalled for.  Mac is a business man and needs to stay in
business.  With out your support he will have a tougher time keeping his
opperation going.  There are not many folks left that give a damn about
our beloved 200LX.  The workman is worthy of his hire.
        For those of us that have been fortunate to experience the 32 meg
machine, the cost is not an objection at all.  The pure speed and
storage are only what's on the surface.  With the upgrade the LX finally
hits full stride as a full function PC.  It really has to be experienced
for an understanding of the value of the upgrade.
        For those of you that are still hoping for are real computer to emerge
from the WinCe stuff,  I think Microsoft is offering a new package deal
with stock in the Brooklyn Bridge.  There is a proven performer in the
200LX availble now.  Why don't the second generation WinCe machines
perform?  The second generation palmtop, the 100LX will still out
perform the WinCe 2.0 machines!
        I hope the enthusiasm for the 32 meg LX over shadows the bitterness
expressed in this note.  If you don't step up to the pump and support
the hardware and software providers for the 200LX, they will eventually
move on to other things.  What are you going to do with a pocket sized
Osborne?  Wake up and smell the coffee!

Off soapbox with flame shields at maximum,

Colin

Greetings Fellow Palmtoppers:

     Well, I've decided to take the 32mB bite. In order to soften the
financial blow, I am selling my EXP1414LXM 4mB. For those who are not
familiar with the product, it is a PCMCIA card with a 1440bps FAX/MODEM
and 4mB FLASH memory. The card has it's own FAX program built in whic
can take # from the LX phone directory. I have the original Box,
Manual & extra cable.

I am asking $180, but will consider other offers.

Cheers,

Hi Y'All!

I got HP 10Mb Flash Card (F1013A) w/o drivers, documentation, anything. I would like to format it, but I'm not sure how!

My other cards (Maxtor) have tool that formats the cards to TFFS. Does HP card support TFFS? Can I use DOS format (will it mess-up the card?), or I have to use some special utility for this?

Help,

Nedim.

Okay, I wasn't going to say anything, but I've heard enough.
Here is my opinion on the 32MB upgrade.  Five hundred dollars
is a lot of money, more than I paid for the 4M unit to begin
with.  But with the upgrade I believe I've got more than
twice the computer I had before.  The speed is doubled and
the memory is much more than doubled.  On top of this, the
improvements are seamlessly integrated into the elegant HP
package.  The computer now does *everything* I want it to.

To put this into some sort of perspective, let me tell you
my home desktop computer is a 16MHz 286 with a 60MB hard
drive.  The two computers are now really quite comparable.

I ask you  this: if all you are doing is text based, what
does anything over 16MHz gain for you?  I would also suggest
that the opinions of those who have not tried the upgrade
may not be as meaningful as the opinions of those who have.

On a final note, Mack did a *great* job, and very quickly too!

Palmtop People,

        With all do respect, this continued whining about the cost of the 32
meg upgrade is uncalled for.  Mac is a business man and needs to stay in
business.  With out your support he will have a tougher time keeping his
opperation going.  There are not many folks left that give a damn about
our beloved 200LX.  The workman is worthy of his hire.
        For those of us that have been fortunate to experience the 32 meg
machine, the cost is not an objection at all.  The pure speed and
storage are only what's on the surface.  With the upgrade the LX finally
hits full stride as a full function PC.  It really has to be experienced
for an understanding of the value of the upgrade.
        For those of you that are still hoping for are real computer to emerge
from the WinCe stuff,  I think Microsoft is offering a new package deal
with stock in the Brooklyn Bridge.  There is a proven performer in the
200LX availble now.  Why don't the second generation WinCe machines
perform?  The second generation palmtop, the 100LX will still out
perform the WinCe 2.0 machines!

It must be nice to have money coming out of your ears. I have to justify
the cost of my purchases. I have nothing against Mack making say a 10 or 20
percent profit and hope he continues to develop for the 200LX. I expected
the upgrade to cost more than a standard memory upgrade because of the
larger chip and having to develop a new driver but twice as much?

Thanks for saying the right thing!  Havining Mack as part of the picture is an
important part of the value of the 200LX.  Without him, this list, the
S.U.P.E.R., and a handfull of other valued assets, (sorry to the ones I did
not list individually) we would be much worse off, indeed.  If HP is through
supporting us, we must be greatful to those who do.

I'm now convinced.  My only open question is whether to have my current model
re-upgraded, or if I should get one of the Service Merchandise closeouts, and
end up with a back-up.

People,

        Wooooh there!  Where do any of us have the right to define someone
else's profit margin?  There are business's that survive on 6% margins
and some that need better than 45% to stay a float.  None of us have
access to Mack's balance sheet.  Given the way Mack conducts his
business, I can't imagine him being a price gouger.  If any of you think
you can do it for less then quit whining and start your own company!

Respectfully,

Colin

The second option is probably the best thing to do... who can't use an extra
200LX? :-)  But if it's too expensive, yes, your current model can be
re-upgraded, and they offer a trade-in depending on which upgrade you have.  I
think it's $125 for the 8MB upgrade and $50 for the 4MB.

It is NOT what it costs that counts, it is what it will do for you or
what you will do with it that counts. The return on your investment and
the cost of capital and cash flow, will it make you more productive and
/or your data more secure. Etc, etc,; cost is only part of the equation,
so don't fixate on only the cost, ok?

Hello:

What other upgrades are realistically possible for the 200lx in the near

I'm thinking about upgrading to 32mb/2x but if there is some new upgrade
in the near future, I may wait.

You have the line in Autoexec.bat that says:

a:\utils\exkey.com -fa:\utils\exkey.ini

or where you keep exkey.com.  Don't forget the "-f", I did the first time
around.

exkey.ini contains:

{Fn+Menu}={Alt+F9}         <-- I like Fn+Menu better than Alt-Menu, given
in the
                               documentation for 123g.

You have to install moreexm.com.  In the moreexm.ini file, on the same
drive as 123g, include the line:

a:\lotus\123g\123g.exm,7000,1,123g

or where you keep 123g.exm.  Don't forget th "1".

Finally, you start up 1-2-3, after re-booting, and hit Fn+Menu to bring up
the 123g menus.

Let me know if you can't get it to work, and I'll send you a copy of my
*.ini files.

Best regards,

Claud

Though I have yet to purchase the new 32 meg chip I can say that 2 years
ago I bought an unstacked 40 meg flashcard for $1,000 which has turned
out to be a real asset. I believe that Mack is offering an excellent
product, very reasonably priced with excellent support and double speed
to boot. I think this is a great step forward for the 200lx and we need
to praise individuals like Mack instead of talking profit margins. We
should be thanking Mack for helping to keep our 200lx on the market.
It's only a matter of time till I add hi 30 pls megs to my 200lx and
then have over 70 megs of storage. Where else can you get that kind of
power to fit in in your shirt pocket?

SanDisk flash cards are available at both Office Place
and Computer City; Computer City (Mississauga,
North York, and Markham) has a wider range
of sizes. Or, try a camera store.

Cables are harder to come by. Battery Plus used to
sell the 200LX, and head office might be willing to order
a cable for you: (905) 712-0297 or 1-800-693-7587.
Battery Plus also carries Simple flash cards and
wonderful GP NiMH AAs.

When I was looking for a flash card last fall, some
Compucentre stores had old 200LX stock, so one
might have a cable. No flash cards (and not much
willingness to order) at the time.

Another potential source is Computer Supply
Express of Mississauga ((905) 855-1230), which
was willing to order a flash card (and could
probably source the cable)

No. HP's connectivity pack does. (I think you can
get a cable pack with it too, but I'm not sure.)
IntelliSync includes the cable, and can export
to dbf, but not edit.

(Aside: I got a tremendous deal on a Zoom
PC 14.4 last week at the Office Place in
Oakville: $Cdn 19.88 + tax. Works great.)

I don't think there will be anything more in the way of speed upgrades.  And it
will probably be a while yet before we see any larger memory upgrades.  If you
have the money, I'd say DEFINITELY get the speed upgrade, and the 32MB upgrade
if you can afford it-- it makes the palmtop so much more useful it's definitely
worth it.

On a different note, you might try GNU Chess.  There's a DOS port
available, and
GNU Chess is a very well respected chess program.  You'll need to come up
with an
ANSI driver too, as it's a direct port from UNIX and as such expects a
smart terminal.

Look for the GNUish project at http://www.simtel.net/simtel.net/ for the
program.
Also, another wonderful GNUish port is GNU Plot, if you do any graphing at
all.
As with eeverything, these things run a whole bunch better on a double speed
processor.

Hi Alex et al.,

The OUR project was discontinued a while ago.  The reasons, which I have not
bothered to outline before, are:
        1) I mistakenly İa¨ insulted a quality piece of work (PNR);
        2) PNR turned out to have all the features I wanted to add;
        3) PNR was a better piece of software than I could write in any
           reasonable quantity of time, and
        4) Time constraints at the time prohibited me from doing any
           software development at all.

İa¨  I had confused PNR with LXDR.  Sorry, Rick.

Perhaps I will write a replacement for LXDR.  However, there are more pressing
projects being attended to right now, so don't hold your breath.

Sorry guys!

Hi Tom,

Long time since I saw you name on internet! :)

Re drivers: I suspect maybe your datacom is looking at COM1?
Could this be the confllict? You have another driver looking
at the same - the Newton driver.

Say Hi to Hafez :-) ...

Good luck.

John,

Sorry to hear that _your_ financial situation is such that
this upgrade is not warranted.

You are comparing apples and bananas. A standard memory
upgrade can be bought in quantities ranging to hundreds of
thousands and even more. The price at such quantites drops by
factors several fold more than what you assume (below 2 fold).
This allows large discounts. Mack does not deal with such
quantities.

I also find it exceptionally rude (and frankly, uninformed to
an amazing degree!) that you take upon yourself to dictate
what a "fair" profit for Mack should be. What do you know
about his business?

If you think you can do it better, do it, and beat him at
this game. If you cannot, don't smear his good name in our
community, please.

Last item: I can understand the hesitation in jumping and
buying it. It _is_ a lot of money. If you cannot see the
benfit to _you_ of taking $500 and putting it into the gadget,
that's fair! Many people do not even buy palmtops, because
they don't think it is useful to them. Can't argue with that.

But you go a step further, and that is uncalled for: You
offend and hurt a vendor that has been exceptional in this
community.

You owe Mack an apology IMHO.

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

I use HP's Connectivity Pack to actually transfer files between my
computer and my HP.  If you haven't got that, I'm sure that there
are other programs out there (Transfile?  Zip?) or if you can program,
you can homebrew your own with the PAL library.

Well, first of all I don't have the 32MB upgrade :(, but let me tell
everyone on the list something. Having seen Mack work his magic firsthand
on my 200LX by performing a speed upgrade and a 8MB upgrade while I
waited and watched, I can assure everyone that he has definately put a
lot of time and effort into devoloping both software drivers and harware
(crystals, etched PC boards & RAM chips) and I really don't understand
why someone in our little family here could possibly have anything bad to
say about Mack. You should see the large amount of late model test
equipment that he has in his possesion, some of which I would love to
have, which he uses in his developement process. Why would anyone gripe
about a price, if you don't like it, don't get it, just go buy a flash
card. Personally, I think the 32MB upgrade is awesome and I'm already
saving my pennies (I think I know what I might do with that IRS refund
check, hmmmm...).

I am surprised that you have no serial ports!  Which is what you will need.

Got the Palmtop Network and download Transfile Win 200.

Thanks David:

I was also wondering if there might be something more exotic in the near
future. I have no idea what it might be, but I would never dreamed of a
32mb upgrade 2 months ago.

Kiru -

HP Canada Supplies Direct stocks the cables and I expect other

Carpman (what is your real name, BTW)

I don't think that your description of logging onto Dalnet and the #hplx
"channel" IS sufficient information for most people.

I just fired up Mirc (used by my teenaged daughter) and was faced with a
very user-unfriendly interface :(

I found a Dalnet (which connected using my daughter's handle) and typed
in #hplx as you suggested - nothing. I think what you meant was, after
connecting to a Dalnet server, you must type in /join #hplx.  There's
more to it than that.  Don't you have to register on the server if on
for first time?

When I connected to #hplx, you weren't there!

If this chat thing is to work (I'm not sure that it's needed with the
speed and scope of this mailing list), you perhaps should set meeting

Hi,

Is there anyone that has the HP
dictionary -- thesaurus card?

Is it a sysman application (exm)?  Does
it work well with the internal apps?

How many words, how big of definitions?

Thanks.

Jeff, I agree. We have very few vendors in our community. My
personal experience is that it is lots and lots of caring, and
only a little bit of profit. Most of us seek other employment
and income sources, and do not rely on this market alone. We
stay in it because there is profit, no doubt, but also because
it is tremendous fun to interact with a (mostly) intelligent
group who use their brains for something other than driving
nails into the wall. (Sorry if you all think of something else
- My thoughts are private, even if you all think you know what
I am er... driving at! ;-) ... )

Right. It is a divine privilege to make choices. If John does
not tink the price is fair, he should utilize his powers of
choice.

When I read your Dal Net question I thought, "yeah, makes

don't often gripe using this forum however I really think the bashing or
flaming is infantile on both sides. I mean who cares. I like the idea of
diversity of opinion as much as anyone but I don't try to run another mans
business. this seems to be a bit of ego serving on both sides my mail box is
full enough as it is, now you can focus on me and give everyone else a break.

I have been using PCGLOBE 5.0 ver 1992 for years on my HP. It is very handy when you
land in a country and want to know basic indicators like population, GNP,
brief history, etc. You need to configure it for CGA mode and plenty of free
conventional memory (I use it in 512K).

Fellow Palmtoppers:

     I read "carpman's" post with inerest. I have never participated=
 in
chat rooms (although I used CIS forums many moons ago). I went over=
 to
TVDog's site (www.agate.net/~tvdog/internet.html) and found three DOS
IRC clients. I set up IRC101 on my LX and connected to DAL
(IRC.DAL.NET) and plugged into the #HPLX, but alas it was empty.

     Anyway is anyone interested is setting up some monthly / biweekly
meetings for a change of pace?

I wonder if somebody would enlighten me here.  What all would be necessary to
get a new newsgroup started specifically for the 200LX?  It seems that
comp.sys.palmtops and alt.comp.sys.palmtops.hp are almost totally concerned
with WinCE units now.  I know there are some sort of voting requirements...
could somebody clarify the matter?

A newsgroup dedicated to HP's DOS palmtops would definitely be a good resource
for people who don't like mailing lists, I think.

Perhaps.  But I don't want to leave the mailing list, for a few reasons:

1) Closed discussion group.  Only people that want to be here are here,
   as the sheer quantity of mail would be a burden for anyone else.
   Being closed, we're not constantly discussing newbie questions.  Look
   at comp.sys.hp48 archives from 4 years ago and 4 months ago; they'll
   be talking about the same stuff.  We actually get somewhere.
2) No spam.  Because of the above reason, we are shielded from spam.  This
   is definitely a Good Thing.
3) Activity.  A list encourages activity more than a newsgroup, because
   posting is as easy as replying to an email.
4) Access.  Anyone with an email account can use this list.  Arguably,
   anyone with access to DejaNews could use comp.sys.hp200 as well,
   but I feel Usenet just isn't the place to put this family.

Essentially, a closed list server is the next step up from a Usenet group.
We should be counting our blessings that we don't have to deal with Usenet.
Leave the carcass of comp.sys.palmtops.hp to be eaten by the CE crowd; we
got our own thing now.

Well, having a specialized newsgroup wouldn't necessitate leaving
the listserv, but I agree with Ian's points against such a group.
Also, I'm not sure the volume warrants it--the current number of
messages seems well within mailing list capabilities.

I just bought a Megahertz CC4144 modem (from a fellow list member!) and I
just downloaded Nettamer.  The modem works fine (I can connect to the US
Robotics 56K test line) but I can't seem to figure out Nettamer!  I did the
setup properly, I hear the modem dial (Mindspring is my ISP) but I just
seem to be dropped into a screen that has "archive/current mail file"
stuff, and I can't seem to be able to move around the software.  I want to
check my mail, get onto usenet, go to web pages, etc.

What am I not doing?  Can someone offer some quick tips?  Thanks in advance!

Hi Thomas

Are you running nettamer from maxdos or similar? Or is it under dos?

I used to get that message till I set up to use under maxdos..

Hi all

I have my 8x 2Sp Jammed and my 10M flash card stacked. this gives me
something around 40Meg total storage..

I was wondering if anyone who has the 32 Meg unit has Stacked/Jammed the new
drive?  Or if it can be done?

If this can be done it would give my particular combo around 110 Meg of
storage if/when I purchase the 32M... VERY impressive..  for me this would
help me justify price asked..

Anyone tried it?

Yes, I've used the HP Dictionary-Thesaurus card for about 4 years.  I
originally purchased it for my HP95LX, but it works fine in my HP200LX.  It
is a sysman app.  It works fine with the other sysman apps, except it
replaces memo with the old 40 char. memo.  I can still get to the 80 char.
memo, but have to go through "More Applications" to get to it.   Don't know
how many words are in it (a bunch?).  Has a nice size dictionary with brief
definitions.  It also gives variations on the word that you're looking up.
It will do anagrams (great for jumbles).    Mine will probably be shelved
when I get a flash memory card (which may be soon).  I use it about once a
week.

Hi,
Is there anyone that has the HP
dictionary -- thesaurus card?
Is it a sysman application (exm)?  Does
it work well with the internal apps?
How many words, how big of definitions?
Thanks.

Bill,
Very well said.  I love my HP200LX.  It is an invaluable tool in my
business and I would be severly handicapped if I didn't have it.  Several
times I've returned home to retrieve it after discovering that I didn't
have it once arriving at work.   I have over 1,100 names and addresses
loaded into it.  I use TRANSFILE to back it up onto my laptop pc.

Now that's said.  MY value (ROA-Return On Assets) is different than yours
as it is different than others.  I have a perspective that says if I spend
$500-$1,000 on a new organizer/computer that has a supported platform for
the next 5 years (an eternity in pc land) then I have received great ROA.
I have no problem with those that find great value for the current 32Mb
upgrade.  To those people, the HPLX has tremendous value that is far beyond
the $500. that the upgrade price represents.   I'm just saying that no one
can tell me that MY needs will be satisfied with an HPLX that cannot run
the next generation of new software and support some of the new graphical
standards that are being developed.   Today, it fits perfectly for what I
need.   Tomorrow, I'll need to assess what is on the market vs. my HPLX.
Isn't that rational?

I have not purchased anything from Mack.  However, from the testimonials
that I've seen, he deserves everyone's support.  He deserves a reasonable
profit (only he knows what percentage).   If there is room in the market,
then there will be competition.

Bottom line.  Determine what is best for your own individual needs and let
competition (and a good reputation) determine the fair market value for a
product or service that you spend your hard earned money on.  I think that
we can get beyond the name calling.
Rgds.....Jim J.

It is NOT what it costs that counts, it is what it will do for you or
what you will do with it that counts. The return on your investment and
the cost of capital and cash flow, will it make you more productive and
/or your data more secure. Etc, etc,; cost is only part of the equation,
so don't fixate on only the cost, ok?

MIME-Version: 1.0

Hi,

I've been looking for a utility called Trex, by Gilles Kohl (Of PAL fame).
It is mentioned in PalEdit's default configuration file, but I've not been
able to find it. Could someone tell me where to get it or send me a copy?
(providing it is free, of course).

BTW. In case anyone was wondering, Trex can search for regular
expressions. A bit like Unix Sed, I take it.

Regards,

Laust

I thought about doing this on my 32mb unit... But I really like the speed that
the palmtop's got now, and I don't want to undo any performance gains.  I've
got everything I need on the machine, anyway, and I still have 10mb free.

Hi all

I have my 8x 2Sp Jammed and my 10M flash card stacked. this gives me
something around 40Meg total storage..

I was wondering if anyone who has the 32 Meg unit has Stacked/Jammed the new
drive?  Or if it can be done?

If this can be done it would give my particular combo around 110 Meg of
storage if/when I purchase the 32M... VERY impressive..  for me this would
help me justify price asked..

Anyone tried it?

I use an old version of NT (1.08) so I don't know how much of this is
applicable to your (1.10-1.11) release.

Nettamer has a dialler component (nettamer.exe) and a reader component
(reader.exe). The "archive/current mail file" screen is the reader
component that's automatically invoked after dialling (whether that was
successful or not). I use the XJ3144, and dialler portion usually fills
the screen with dialling/connect info (including the IP address and
connect speed). Email me privately if you don't get a response from
a user of a more current version. I hadn't upgraded only cuz I keep
hearing about problems after 1.08. My ISP is ATT, so there may not be a
lot I can tell you that'd be useful.

Now my wife is convinced that I am crazy.

At Service Merchandise, I bought the last HP200LX  in stock for $300.
Somehow, she couldn't see this as saving $200 on valuable insurance against
downage of my central information system.  It seemed more like tossing away
$300 on a toy which I already had.

Besides, said she, there are newer models with bigger screens available.  I
did not drop into my defensive crouch and deliver the diatribe against
apparent progress that is really only change for its own sake that we have all
participated in here on the list.  I just said that they don't run the
programs I like.

The very idea that I am about to send the newly purchased redundent toy away
to Alabama to have the 32 Meg upgrade installed proved her point -- to her, at
least.  Just get a new one that does what you need.

Oh, well.  She is confirmed in her belief that the only difference between men
and boys is the price of their toys.

Ah, if only we could buy a new one that does what we need.  Don't we have
any wealthy entrepreneurs among us?  :-)

Dear Alex and Avi,

As most bartenders would say - take it outside, boys! If you have
disagreements, fine, but please keep these sorts of discussions to
yourselves, and don't force the rest of us to listen. Please post directly
to each other, not via the mail-list. I'm speaking for myself, but imagine
most would agree. I should add I have no thoughts about who is "right" or
wrong, and nor do I care. I just wish for:

minimum wasted bandwidth
maximum utility from this list.

Doric.

        My girl friend was concerned about my frivilous spending on a new 200LX
and then the 32 meg upgrade.  Now that she has seen it work, she wants
me to buy her one.  You win some and you loose some.

Golly Gee...you do have a good point here. Except you are a good example of
someone one doesn't pay attention to what is going on. Avi and I are not the

Better yet, lets have a few more beers first.

<Now for the part that makes this post useful to the List members>

Does anyone have that game called Bartender I think in which the object was to
keep the beer mugs full without dropping them on the floor? I wonder if that
would work on the 200lx?

Thanks.

Funny, I did about the same thing (new 200LX from Service Merchandise,
and it's going under Mack's knife).  And that is what I think I am
doing, getting a new one that does what I need.

I'm inventorying my computer collection.  I've been through about 2500
items and am guessing at this point that I have about 10,000.  The
database, using the 200LX built-in database software, is getting slow
and I am finding other things it doesn't do real well.

This is after having loaded FASTDB.TSR and moved the database off the
Stackered flash disk and into RAM just to see how much of a
performance hit I was taking from that.  This made a visible
difference, but it's still not as fast as I'd like (meaning I wait a
few seconds after adding or modifying a record, which may not seem
like much but it sure throws me off my data-entry stride) and it's
clear that I'm going to exceed what I can fit on my C: disk.

It's also clear that I'm going to exceed the suggested limits of the
built-in database library and I really don't want a lot of firsthand
experience with its catastrophic failure modes.  So now I'm looking at
a dBase III clone and figuring out how to move my data over to that.

>Oh, well.  She is confirmed in her belief that the only difference between men

Nah, there's also how fast the toys go and how big a bang they make.

But seriously: the ~$300 + ~$500 I am paying for this compares pretty
well with the Fry's ad in today's San Jose Mercury which offers the
620LX for $847 (and yes I know I can get cheaper 620LXs and other
WinCE machines).  What really makes it favorable from my point of view
is that I know the money I'm spending will yield something that works.
I looked at the 620LX and WinCE machines in general and couldn't
convince myself of that.

These are excellent reasons (ESP the spam!) but this closed list server is
difficult for all those lost, new hplx users - how about a monthly

Or is finding this mailing list a kind of initiation test - right of

I have a pinball DOS game i.e. pinball2.com, which is just nice for

How can I deactivate (or activate) the sticky function ?  Please help

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

I use HP's Connectivity Pack to actually transfer files between my
computer and my HP.  If you haven't got that, I'm sure that there
are other programs out there (Transfile?  Zip?) or if you can program,
you can homebrew your own with the PAL library.

I solved this problem with an external serial port switch box.  There
are a number of vendors of such things, but I located one at a local
electronics shop for a substantial discount (about $8) - seems like
normally they run $40-50 from a company like Black Box.

I have one at my office and one at home.  I can select between my
modem, my palmtop, or any other accessories (Packet Radio TNC, GPS
receiver, etc.).  This solution works great for me, and it is easier
than installing an expansion serial port card.  Now if you need
simultaneous access to the palmtop and the modem, then you have to go
with additional serial ports.

> also what program do you use?

I've used the HP Connectivity pack for over 3 years without any
problems.

Subject:      Clipboard problem
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Last night I was trying to cut and paste between Pal Edit and
Data Comm.  After blocking two screens of text, I got an error
message when I tried to copy (Fn-copy).  I don't recall the exact
message, but it said something like "unable to put into clipboard".

I have always used the default allocation (4k) and have never
seen this before.  I have *not* used Pal Edit much, and also
just had my 4MB 200LX upgraded to double speed and 32MB.  One
other interesting factor--copying to the clipboard from Data
Comm seems to more of a screen grab.  I.e., no selecting or
blocking of text is done first.

This morning I was again unable to use the clipboard until
I rebooted the LX.  I did *not* have Pal Edit open.  I am
troubled by this behavior and would like other thoughts on
it.  What I've done so far is to increase the clipboard size.
I'll try it some more tonight and see if that helps, but was
wondering if anyone else had seen anything like this?

I encourage you all to pubilcize this list as you see fit. I no longer

Dear Jim, Thank you for your kind reply.  One added thought, lets not
forget the resale value at the end of the 5 years.  And a minor note,
the light weight of the 200LX is a real plus in my mind. And the  all
time it takes to learn all of those "new and improved" programs, etc,
etc!!!

Hi

You might be interested in the "Gizmo of the week" on
http://www.halted.com
It seems you can get a GPS receiver there for $69 that is possible to
connect to the HP200 via a serial port. The software you can get for
free from the manufacturer (Trimble) and I can confirm that it does run on
the hp200. I will get the receiver this afternoon and will keep you
posted. The receiver is the
Trimble Placer 400, you can read more about it on http://www.trimble.com

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

Just curious.  Does anyone have an estimate of how many HPLX's (95, 100 &
200's) were sold by Hewlett Packard?  I am curious about a North American
distribution of users in major cities.  In other words, if one was to
assume that Indianapolis (where I live) has roughly 1M people.  What could
I assume as the number of HPLX users in this area?  Would 0.1% be too high?
It would be interesting data to determine if there are enough users in a
particular area to start a users group.
Rgds....Jim J.

Cathy,

        I hate to beat a dead horse, but email text cannot be used as a vector for
virus insertion.  email ATTATCHMENTS can be used as such, but ONLY IF YOU
RUN THEM.  This only applies to executables and certain kinds of formatted
text documents for a handful of word processor packages.  In other words,
you're commendable for practicing safe hex, but it seems you've fallen
victim to the 'Good Times' hoax.

Subject:      Agenda vs. InfoSelect & AskSAM
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Now when I compared IS and AskSAM I didn't compare Agenda. Agenda is it its
own class. It certainly is in theory a much better database that IS but there
are some problems with Agenda

1) It's slow! Almost everyone who uses it wants to get a speed upgrade.
However if you already have a speed upgrade the speed is probably no problem.
2) Data corruption is a real problem with this database. I've never had a data
corruption error on IS but Agenda users routinely say they have problems with
this problem. Like the first problem this is solved by running a routine
nightly to help with this problem.

However, everyone I know who has used Agenda says it's wonderful. Certainly it
is the most unusual of the other PIMs available for the HP. I don't have any
problems with someone picking Agenda over any other PIM. I think when we post
messages on the list about Agenda we should note the problems that it has,
just as we should do the same with IS and AskSAM.

Personally if I were going to switch to a database it would be AskSAM just
because I'd like the ability to sift through a vast amount of data without
having any size limit. More likely I'd keep IS (or if I were an Agenda user
I'd keep that PIM) for my addresses and odd notes. AskSAM is the kind of
product where you keep an archive of all your e-mail or long reference works.
Of course it would be great if AskSAM was a heck of a lot cheaper, too :-)

The problem is a simple one, you saved the images to 1.44MB formatted floppies.

You need to format your floppies to 720KB to map the images correctly to your
diskettes.

This is a great database for the management of a large number of small pieces
of information in text format.
Extremely powerful and flexible.  If you have a real need for this program,
there is nothing else like it.

The down side, because this program is so flexible, some people have problems
getting a handle on how to use
the program.

Note - To run Agenda on a 200LX your need to 1) install it on your C: drive if
you're using a flash RAM card
(speed!) and 2) run Agenda under MaxDOS.

If you decide to proceed with using Agenda, you might want to join the PIM-list
listed below.

Michael

This is just a note to let everyone know that Michael is no

over maintenance of PNR.  It will remain freeware, and has
already been enhanced to support PPP transfer via LXPPP.

While we're on subject, does anyone run any anti-virus software on their 200LX?
I was jamming my new 10Mb flash card with lots of "junk" so last night I decided to have it scanned and tried McAfee Scan for DOS (non protected mode). Although it required all the 640K memory, it worked. I was amazed. You can download it from Simtel and there's virus file update on McAfee site. I also might try f-prot, just to see if it will work.

Your internal modem shouldn't be using motherboard's com port, since internal modems come with com port!

Move your modem to let's say COM3 and you'll have free port for 200LX. On some models you'll have to move jumpers, but on later (pnp) you should be able to do it from Win95!

Actually, on my basic 4MB 200LX performance is acceptable, if Agenda resides in C: drive.

On a X2 32MB 200LX, performance should be great!

One way to help avoid corruption of Agenda data files on the 200LX is to close the database file periodically.

When you close the file, Agenda takes care of some house cleaning chores, which left undone long term can lead
to file corruption.

This was never a real problem with old DOS PC's, put with the 200LX's ability to never really turn-off, this
can become a problem.

Try ICNVU on you 100lx, it works on the 200lx but haven't tried it on the
100lx.

Daan,

What type of software is required?  I visited the trimble site but was
unable to find much except for a Windows application.  Also what power
source does the GPS use?  wired into a cars fuse panel or what?   Thanks,

Hi

I just got the $69 GPS receiver from Halted (http://www.halted.com , gizmo
of the week). I can confirm that it works both with the Toshiba Libretto
and the HP200 LX, using the software I got from Trimble. It takes about
2 minutes for it to find a few sattelites. I got signal from about 4
and it correctly told me I was about 55 km from New York.
I mailed Trimble this afternoon and they told me I was free to distribute
the software. If any of you order the device, be sure to only get the
receiver. The big blue box and computer + floppy are not required AT ALL.
Before ordering it, consider the down side: this is not a NEAM protocol
compatible receiver so a lot of the software out there will not work
(yet?).
Any questions, mail me.

Daan

In drive D: on your 200lx (drive D: is ROM) you will find ICN200LX.exe
an ICON editor program.  It's easy to use, but you should copy it to the
directory where your icon(s) are, the "open" command requires you to
know the full path and name of the icon you wish to edit.  You can also
create new icons for stuff you might want icons for.

The software came to me from Trimble via E-mail, let me know if you want
to have it. It seems to take power anywhere between 9 and 28v. I just got
it to work on a 12v adapter. I think it should be possible to connect
it directly to the car battery.

Hi all.  I put links to all these for the palmtop in my files section.  Enjoy.

If anyone else has old Windows programs, fonts, utils, viruses...<g>
Please send them so I can build a bigger Windows library for the LX on the
ftp site.

Hi Dan

No map, just coordinates, speed, time, direction, updated every 2
secs in a window on the screen. The protocol is pretty easy to decipher
(you can actually see the communication on the screen), so I think a
moving map should be possible in the future.

Hi
E-mail re: this subject is coming in at high volume, please read the
previous E-mails before asking anything.
For now, this device will only work with their software. (period)

This won't work, it uses the icon editor in the Rom on the 200LX,
which the 100LX is lacking.  It's the icon editor itself that I
need as I need to create a new icon for my mailer.

TWIMC:

*Finally* I have received my new backup palmtop from Service
Merchandise.  My attempts to negotiate a discount met without
success. Even though everyone admitted they would probably lose money
on the deal, they couldn't authorize any discount.  Seems that the
left hand and the right hand don't coordinate, even in the commercial
world (I thought such shenannigans were limited to the government
sector).

Anyway, the replacement unit has a full 2MB, just as expected.

One note:  I realized that there is a manufacturer's Warranty Seal
located inside the battery compartment.  It is present on my latest
unit, but was missing on the first one they sent.  Someone postulated
that a buyer stole the extra megabyte then returned the unit to the
store.  That's entirely likely.

Yes there is! Its called ICN100.EXE
(same as ICN200 that comes with the 200LX)

It came on the The HP Palmtop Paper Subscriber PowerDisk.
ICONS100.EXE, 44,561 bytes. There are a dozen or so sample icons that
came with it.

Drop me a line and I'll send you a copy.

I'll also forward a copy to Mich to place on the SUPER SITE0

We use Trimble receivers at my office, and I have information on the
TAIP.  I would be willing to work with the author of LXGPS (and any
other similar program, like GPSCGA) to provide information on it.  It
shouldn't be difficult at all to modify a program to use this
protocol.  I have used it on work-related projects, and it's pretty
simple to use.  All the same information is present that is available
over standard NMEA sentences.

You can download it from Simtel and there's virus file update on McAfee
site. I also might try f-prot, just to see if it will work.

I used my current road trip from Connecticut to Pittsburgh to try out the
ccMail connection offered by palmtop.com. The only thing that could be better
than this would be to get the 32MB upgrade! I slipped out my flashcard, put in
my PCMCIA modem, modified the dial up to include the access code for
1800CALLATT and my phone card number, and was on and off using a SysMgr
Compliant app in less than a minute. Sent a quick note to my boss and my family
while I was at it. I have had one of these buggers (HPLX'S) since 1993 and I am
still impressed with each day. What a truly magnificent piece of engineering
this thing is.

If any of you have the opportunity to use palmtop.com, I personally think its a
great service.

Now to budget in that 32MB upgrade - HOOYAH! (Contrary to what some believe, I
don't have money to burn but recognize VALUE when I see it)

Brian

P.S. Al Kind - your signature looks wierd on my desktop, but is picture perfect
on ccMAIL!

I'm willing to add support for it to LXGPS.  Just send me the info and
some sample output.

I've heard that the price has dropped on the Delorme Tripmate GPS
receiver (under $100?) so people looking for a low-priced GPS to use
with the 100/200lx should check that out as well.  It has the benefit
of already working with existing programs (LXGPS, included) as well as
coming bundled with Street Atlas which you can use to make maps.

For those of you (us?) in Northern California, one nice
place to get old software is the Software Outlet in the
Vacaville Outlet Mall outside of Sacramento.  They've got
a couple of tables of DOS games ($5/per or $10/3) and
some racks of older DOS applications/utilities.

Subject:      32 MB and MAXDOS

Does anyone know if Maxdos works with the 32 MB RAM upgrade and or the
double speeding?  I have some apps that need MaxDOS to run in.

What about Sofware Carousel?

I can't wait to get my 32 MB RAM!  What a guy Mack is to make it available
at all.  Forget the price.  If you need it it is worth whatever it costs -
well almost :-).

Thanks.

I would think that would slow down access to it and make you lose the
great speed it offers.  Of course everything in life is a tradeoff.  Can
you imagine 110 MB on your palmtop.  I remember when a 40 MB HD was a
large drive.  Actually I can even remember when my Apple IIe had no HD :-)

Russell,

Hmmm... Stacking the 32mb to approximately 64MB, stacking the
352K former C: drive to 0.6M, and stacking the 40MB PCMCIA to
approx. 80MB, total=3D144.6MB on board more or less. Quite a
scary thought :)...

I have not tried it, because I still have over 30MB free
between the two right now...

David, there is some voting process on a new newsgroup. I
really do NOT know the details. Recently there was such an
attempt in comp.sysy.handheld I believe. Maybe they know how.

But before you run out there, what is missing with this list?
Groups tend to attract also the porographers etc, taking up
huge bandwidth. Just asking questions...

Heck, I remember back when my parents were first getting a computer, in
1990, and they were looking at high-capacity machines like the Macintosh
LC with a whopping 40MB hard drive.  It was a toss-up between the 20MB
model and the 40MB.  "40MB is more than you'll ever need," all the
salespeople would say...

Eight years later, I'm not holding, in my hand, almost four times that
amount, and it cost far less...

Isn't it easier to set yourself up to get email? This seems a
very prevalent reason for people to get on internet. I think
newsgroups is more "esoteric". E.g. a question I almost always
get from customers: "Where is the newsgroup located?"

The newsgroups spend lots of bandwidth on invitations to open
an account to see women frolic! Distracting <g>

Software Carousel runs EXTREMELY well on the double-speed, 32MB LX.  I
believe MaxDOS does as well, but I haven't tried it for a long time.

I know the attempt to create a comp.sys.palmtops.advocacy newsgroup just
failed, with a Yes-No vote of 110-22 (yes votes had to outnumber no votes
by at least 100) but I don't know any other details on how newsgroups are
made.

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

On the other hand, perhaps finding this group SHOULD be a requirement for
getting help/etc. with the LX.  :-)

Subject:      700LX comm problems...
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hello all, my first posting here! :-)

My asumptions are that the cable I made for and that works on an Omnigo 100
without problems will work on a Omnigo 700LX and that comm programs for the
200LX will work on a 700LX, which is what I have! + a Nokia 2110. :-)

So... The HP Intellisync software works, I am able to backup and restore my
data, also because of problems I used it to send files to the 700 (copied
file to backup catalog and restored it). So the cable does seem to work, com
ports on pc and 700lx work.

But Transfile200 doesn't! No way I get it to work, although I have followed
instructions in the help file. Tried F6 Remote and F10 Connect. No
connection message both from pc and 700lx. Running 9600 or 19200, server
enabled. Handshaking problem? Where does one set up handshaking in Filer? In
Transfile200? I can't find that. Seems to be automatic or that each is
waiting for a special 200lx response...

Also set up Datacom on 700lx and Terminal in W95 to communicate. I can get
each computer to mirror typing on the other's keyboard, so communication is
ok. But I can not transfer files! Handshaking problem? Tried X, Y and
Zmodem, Kermit etc, played with hardware/software handshaking. Cable
problem?

Anyone have any ideas? Next step is to check/make a new cable, or buy an
infrared set for my pc! Thought I would ask here first... Could it be that
Intellisync is intelligent enough to handle a strange cable/handshaking bug?

Wonderfull thing this 700LX. No wonder people are enthusiastic about it, I
just love the screen, much better that my ogo. Anybody know about upgrading
RAM and speed? Same as the 200LX?

Goodnight!

Franklin

No, there are no genuine viruses that spread through READING of e-mail.
Attachments that are executed are a potential source of viruses, but, you
do have to execute them first.

There are, however, plenty of HOAXES floating around "warning" people
about e-mail viruses.  There are numerous web sites dealing with the
numerous hoax "warnings" floating around.  In fact a variant of one such
hoax was posted to this list a few weeks ago, though it was more of a joke
on Microsoft than a hoax... the "Bill Gates is tracking your e-mail and
will pay you $1000" letter.

Over the weekend, the time difference between Sydney and San Francisco
on my HP200LX became 6 hours rather than 5 hours (discounting the fact
that Australia is one day ahead of us). But when I called friends
there, I was told nothing has changed. So the 200LX is showing the
time there one hour later. Does anyone else have the same problem? I
didn't change any settings on the machine. Thanks.

YES,
I have sothing like that.
In fact 3 or 4 weeks  ago my LX said there is a day lite saving (in
Melbourne/Australia). and change the clock.
I don't know the solution.

Those of you who are in the silicon valley area should check out a place
called "Weird Stuff." It is next to "Fry's" electronics in Sunnyvale,
CA. They sell all kinds of 'older' unwanted software, books, monitors
etc. very cheap. I have bought sealed win3.1/dos 6.22 books (set of 2
books bound as one) for 1 or 2 dollars. Of course, there are many things
that are not as good of a deal, but most items are priced extremely low.
I have bought many new bags, cases, etc. that had company logos on
them.  Please note that they are a 'hit or miss' store. Many people,
like my brother-in-law, go there a couple times a week to snap up the
good stuff. The store needs to be checked frequently. I remember I saw
some of those shirt-pocket screwdrivers. They had a logo on them but the
tips were hardened so they really last; they cost a nickel each and all
my computer friends wanted one because they also had a phillips end
coming out of the top.

Hi, I have a SystemSoft Card Reader and have finally got around to
installing it on a PC. But it doesn't appear to have come with the
necessary files for Flash Card Support. The card beeps as it should when
I insert it, but I cannot access it. Has anyone had any experience with
these drives and have any suggestions ?

TIA

200LX newsgroup would be neat, but do you wander what would happen with this list? I mean, wouldn't that be kinda redundant? Would half of the people left The List and join The Group? Or would we all have to follow both (which I personally am not looking forward to)?

One more thing. The Group would have to be moderated and located somewhere, to prevent spam and junk e-mail. So somebody would have to run it! I'm prepared to volunteer (if somebody else doesn't want it bad), since I work for an ISP.

If there is enough interest, let's investigate more on how is it suppose to be done (creation etc.). It may seem like I would have to know (working for an ISP), but I have no clue, I'm just a programmer :-)

And maybe do some kind of voting/public opinion check!

Nedim.

Is there a way to make filer.ini and pns200 recognize a file that has NO
extension?  I mean a file named "file"    with no 3 letter extension.  The
system seems to need an extension and will not accept a "space" or "*".

Hi everyone

For those who have installed and use windows on their palmtops and
have been asking about Excel 2.1, you may now grab a copy at the
following url: ftp://libertynet.org/site/graphiti/hplx/LX_windows/

Also at that url is a copy of win2.03, a draw program for windows
(by Micrografix) that i believe works well on the 200lx but i haven't
actually tested this as yet and.... word for windows!

The processor also doubled as a black and white video controller (thus
losing 3/4 processing power). Really. And now painfully slow 1 Meg

Hey, what's all this "processor" and "K" business?  Back in my time, we
had to switch around the vacuum tubes to make the computer do anything.
 Once I wrote a program that solved Fermat's Last Theorem, created
faster-than-light travel, cured all the ills of humanity, and
mathematically proved the existence of God, all in four seconds or
less.  Ah, the memories...

Same place in Central Calif., in San Luis Obispo and I believe in
Bakersfield also. The SLO store had some HP95 Connectivity kits, the last

100/200).

Subject:      Re : Time difference between US and Australia
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

This is because Australia has changed its daylight savings rules since the
HP was set up. Daylight savings is now extended a few weeks longer than it
used to be (means I am going to work in the dark at 7 am at the moment).
It has changed a number of times and it seems my current setting is wrong as
when I ran World Time, it reset it, even though I had previously
modified timezone.dat.

After trawling the web for details, found the following information

                    Daylight Saving for 1997/1998

                     South Australia     26/10/97   To  29/3/98
                     Victoria            26/10/97   To  29/3/98
                     ACT                 26/10/97   To  29/3/98
                     NSW                 26/10/97   To  29/3/98
                     Tasmania             5/10/97   To  29/3/98

The other states and territories do not observe daylight time at all, so
you can change time zones by simply travelling north/south (don't ask
about Tasmania, they're just an embaressment to the rest of the
country :) )

So, you need to edit the file c:\_dat\timezone.dat.
Add the lines at the end of the file as follows:

Australia
3:29-4   6 0:00
10:25-31  6 1:00

(you can also put one in for Tasmania as well, but I think Hobart is the
only city there in the HP database ?)

I've checked and this format works OK.
The meaning should be self-explanatory (apart from the 6 - anyone ?).
When you fire up World Time again, it should now give you the
option of changing the Australian Time Zone.

Also remember that Australia (east coast) is up to 19 hours ahead of the U.S.
so it will generally be a day ahead. Hence if you call on a Saturday, it may
be Sunday in Aus and Daylight Savings will have changed there, but your HP
still thinks it is Saturday and so will not have made the change.

Hope this all makes sense.

  Sorry, but Weird Stuff hasn't been next to Frys for over a year. T-Zone
occupies the space Weird Stuff did next to Frys now.  However, Weird
Stuff still exists.  They are located at 384 West Carribbean Dr,
Sunnyvale (408-743-5650).  Open Mon-Sat 9am-5pm.  They have shifted their
operation to mostly mail-order.  Consequently, they have scaled down

As has been pointed out, Weird Stuff ain't there no more.  Fry's is
moving too.

The Caribbean Drive location is supposed to be the "hardware" Weird
Stuff, and there is supposed to be a "software" store somewhere in
Fremont.  I've never been there.  They've got a graphics-laden web
site at http://www.weirdstuff.com/ if you want to check it out.

Herb's Software is across Brokaw from Fry's San Jose location.
They've got what seems to be a slowly-emptying aisle or two of MS-DOS
applications, some kind of pricey, some very reasonable.  Lately
it is more Win 3.x stuff though.

The Computer Recycling Center takes donated computers and refurbishes
them for schools.  They also have sales of random old computer stuff
(books, hardware, software, most used) that I guess they figure they
can't place.  These sales are held from 0900-1300 every Saturday,
maybe modulo Big Holidays and other catastrophic events.  They're at
2971 Mead in Santa Clara, and I think have a web site at
http://www.crc.org/ .

OK, now y'all know most of my secrets for finding stuff like this, but
they don't work 100%.  For example: anybody got a legitimate Digitalk
Smalltalk for DOS package to sell?  There's something I'd like to dink
with on the palmtop and haven't been able to find.

If this is old news I apologize.  I noticed HP has drivers
to make the 200LX IR interface IrDA capable.  The URLs are:

HP 200LX IrDA Printer Drivers
ftp://hpcvbbs.cv.external.hp.com/dist/hp200lx/irda/irda200.zip

detailed information and installation (included below)
http://www.hp.com/handheld/getting_help/software/palmtops/irda200.html

Ted Heise    <theise@netins.net>    West Lafayette, IN, USA



                       HP 200LX IrDA Printer Drivers
                   Software File: irda200.zip (Size 24KB)

   While HP pioneered infrared communication with its calculator and
   Palmtop computer line, it joined with the IrDA (Infrared Data
   Association) to extend that technology into a high speed protocol
   standard that is beginning to be put into printers and accessory
   devices that work with the printers. The devices are commonly called
   IrDA compliant devices.

   The HP Palmtop built-in IR interface is HP proprietary SIR (serial
   infrared interface). IrDA evolved several years after HP developed
   SIR, and IrDA is not backward compatible to the HP proprietary SIR in
   these machines.

   However, now that IrDA is available in some printers and accessories
   that work with printers, the need for IrDA drivers for the Palmtop has
   come about. This set of files are IrDA printer drivers for the HP
   200LX. The drivers are not written for, and will not work on, the HP
   95LX or the HP 100LX.

   Once installed on the HP 200LX, they replace SIR printing capabilities
   of the HP 200LX. They do not affect the SIR file transfer capabilities
   in FILER.

   For detailed information and installation instructions, please unzip
   irda200.zip and read the README.TXT file.

Jeff, I have a program called AUTOCW. It works well on the palmtop, has
only one file autocw.exe and reproduces the code in random groups or from a
text file. Let me know if your interested in a copy, it's shareware.

I have a Lynksystems card thing kind of like what you have.  I had the

found a driver on the disk that was shipped with the PC card, but it
does not work under Weirdness95.

Hope some part of this is useful.

Some links at my site go to other sites, and I can not control them.  For
now, I have placed Word55 and TCPP 1.0 in the NEW folder at the ftp site.
(See files section URL below.)  Also, a new windows 2.x folder resides on
the ftp site.  Win 3.0, for those that want windows on the LX is not as
compact as 2.x and doesn't run any additional major apps.  Save disk space.

I can't get Windows 2.03 to work with emm200.  Do I need the
times2tech emm driver to do this?  I seem to remember people
accomplishing this, and Excel took advantage of the extra
mem.

Now that Windows 2.03 appears to work with Software Carousel,
I'd like to be able to swap between it and Lotus Agenda, which
I have configured to use EMM as well.  If I can get this working, I
think I'll finally upgrade my 1MB 200lx (with 10meg flash) to 32M.

If you're wondering how I can run several full sized SC areas, and
still have room for the system manager and 250K EMM on my tiny 1M LX,
here's how:   I use JAM to compress a large portion of my flash card,
and use the 'jswap' utility to make the JAMmed drive my C: drive.
Therefore, there is nothing on my internal memory except an EMM file.

Ted, does this mean that the jeteye printer interface would not work

   devices that work with the printers. The devices are commonly called
   IrDA compliant devices.

   The HP Palmtop built-in IR interface is HP proprietary SIR (serial
   infrared interface). IrDA evolved several years after HP developed
   SIR, and IrDA is not backward compatible to the HP proprietary SIR in
   these machines.

   However, now that IrDA is available in some printers and accessories
   that work with printers, the need for IrDA drivers for the Palmtop =
has
   come about. This set of files are IrDA printer drivers for the HP
   200LX. The drivers are not written for, and will not work on, the HP
   95LX or the HP 100LX.

   Once installed on the HP 200LX, they replace SIR printing =
capabilities
   of the HP 200LX. They do not affect the SIR file transfer =
capabilities
   in FILER.

   For detailed information and installation instructions, please unzip
   irda200.zip and read the README.TXT file.

Just thought I would let the list know about a program called ReadMail
whhich I recently downloaded from the SUPER site. It seems to be an ideal=

reader if you receive the list in digest from. Opening the digest file wi=
th
ReadMail provides a versatile front end allowing you to view list message=
s
in time order, by thread or by author, and the use of colour (on the
desktop) helps seperate the reply message from quoted sections.

There are loads of other functions I have not had time to look at yet, if=
 I
even know what they're for.

Take a look

Actually, I went ahead and took a look at it on my lunch
hour.  The reader (v 1.0 for DOS) quits during installation
with the message that it requires a 386 or better.

Hi,

        Try Shier Systems.  If the sales girls don't know, have them ask
David.  There were 70 copies he was trying to get from Germany.

Well when I started programming, we didn't have zeros.  We had to use the

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

Ha!
That's nothing. We had to use two STICKS with MARKS on them to
do calculations... and even then the answer was only good to
3 or 4 places! Any addition you did in your HEAD! And it didn't
track the decimal point, you tracked that in your HEAD too!

You got answers?  And they let you use your *head*?  I think I need
to have a little chat with my boss.

Ahhh, but that very fact gave these sticks an unlimited dynamic
range. Unlike all modern electronic calculators, which typically
limit you to 10¬127, 10¬499, or some similar arbitrary number.
True, this has never been a problem in my field, but I hear that in
some fields (like astronomy) they have to deal with huge numbers.

Hey Malcolm,

Get a life man...you are WAY too wrapped up in the small things in life. So
what if one message occasionally has a date older than the rest. Life does
go on, dude!  You know... my wife is a mental health therapist, and she has
successfully treated people with disorders similar to yours.

Let me give you a hint on how to deal with this until you get professional
help.

There are small things in life and there are big things in life. This is
one of those small little things that normal people just ignore and move on
with their lives.  Try to forget about the small things, take a deep
breath, eat some popcorn, maybe even have a beer. Count to ten, count
sheep, count your blessings that this is one of your problems and not
cancer, AIDS, blindness, or some terminal illness.  This way, you'll have
more energy to deal with the big things in life.

PS. It just so happens that I set my date intentionally back temporarily to
continue testing some beta software. It was pointed out to me today, and I
changed it back. NOW you can finally get some sleep!

imho i agree hundred percent with david sargeant's idea. after 3 days of
subscription to your actual team, i got more than 200 msgs and less than 1
percent is usefull.
sorry, i am not beeing rude, but that is a lot.
we should organize a new team, with people that want to hear specifically on
theyr model, in my case the hp 200 lx.
lets think about that ??
david, if you want, i am number two on your team.

i apologize for not updating the list about this project, but i
have recently started my three year NDBC and so have no time left
to pursue it with the vigour it needs.

Any takers? i emailed Shier Systems with no response, Hagstrom
www.hagstromelectronics.com said they were willing to make a
dedicated interface, but were not in the field of writing the
software.

The author of the Newton keyboard interface tsr (ntkpac05.zip on
SUPER) said i could modify his program (which includes the source
code) but i really don't have the time and being way, way down
here in the bottom of the world, NZ, access to things is a real
joke.

i freely give anybody the right to develop this concept for the
palmtop community.

Nedim, I use f-prot. The advantage is that I use it in the
interlnk/intersvr setup and it just runs on the
laptop/desktop, and checks the drives on the palmtop. I had
problems making MacAfee do that, if I recall right.

If you make the attachment a Wordperfect document or Word
document, you can place macros in it that have some pretty
amazing powers. If you then click on the document, the association
will open the relevant programs, and there is you virus
working through the macros.

Having said that, it never happened to me, so I am not really
good at this. I am also repeating here what I read in several
places about these nasty little buggers.

I did find an old DOS driver I had for the PDD/PDD2. It runs from the DOS
prompt.

The PDD is the long discontinued Portable Disk Drive for the Tandy Model 100
computer. It holds 100k on a single side. The PDD-2 is the updated, double
sided, drive for the Model 100. It can hold 200k of data.

After thinking about the very small amount of data that could be stored, I
abandoned the idea as nonproductive. I have a 2meg SRAM in my lx.
(2meg/200k=10)

I have the driver if anyone should want it, however.

A starting point would be the FAQ at:
        ftp://eddie.mit.edu/distrib/hp95lx/FAQ

I don't know of any 95LX specific NG or lists or whether memory expansion
is possible past 1mb.

Unfortunately there are no upgrades available for the 95LX, since the
speed crystal upgrade doesn't work and there's no place to add memory.
The 100LX can be speed upgraded, but not memory upgraded (again, no place
to add the memory).

Hi all

Is there a Macro Database?

I have read the manual and am at a loss as to how to start..

I want to run a macro to close all apps then do backups..

ie start at a particular time.

Any help would be appreciated.  For such a powerful feature the manual is
sadly lacking.

THIS IS A PUBLIC SERVICE MESSAGE ON BEHALF OF THOSE WHO ARE PRETTY DAMN TIRED
OF ALL THIS VICIOUS, UNPRODUCTIVE FLAME.  THANK YOU.

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

I like this list.  If you guys don't, send a polite email to the listserv
robot, listserv@UConnVM.UConn.Edu, and just say "unsubscribe hplx-l".  It
is interesting to me that those who "lurk" on the list are now coming out
of their caves to bitch about other people who bitch about bitching at
community heroes (mainly Mack, for trying to stay in business by selling
above cost).

>Count me as number 3. This list is full of whining morons that are much

I'm sure _that_ made _lots_ of friends, Alex!  Calm down!  And think.  This
list closes, and a new moderated newsgroup opens.  Who moderates it?  Probably
one of the "whining morons" from this list.  Who reads a moderated newsgroup?
Nobody.  Because they're run by "whining morons".  Pretty soon, all the
"whining morons" who had to move to the moderated newsgroup, open a list.
Where are we then?  Exactly where we are now.  So maybe all of us "whining
morons" should stay where we are, and be happy.

Nope, you aren't.  Just misinformed.  This list _is_ about the 200LX.  There
aren't any others here.  The 95LX and 100LX are very similar, if that threw

You might want to consider installing Buddy.  It adds the capability of closing all
APPS and saving all open files with two key strokes.  It alls the capability of
running many more macros on your 200LX.

BTW, a very simple way to write macros it to let the system record your key strokes.

Somehow it didn't ask me about changing the Australian Time Zone and

lines above are there in timezone.dat. When could be the reason?

Hi Ron-

Just checked in a back issue of the Palmtop Paper.  If you create a=
 new
timezone, you need to edit the entry for each city in the new zone.=

PTP's instructions:
"Start WorldTime, highlight the city you want to edit, and press
İENTER¨ to go to the individual city data screen.  Press İALT¨-M to
choose Automatic Daylight Savings and press İENTER¨ once to go to the
chioce box. Use the Down or UpArrow keys to scroll through the list=
 and
highlight the correct timezone. Press İF10¨ to save your selection."

You'll need to do this with all the Australian cities.

Hope this helps.

->I want to run a macro to close all apps then do backups..

I have used such a macro for years to backup my entire C: drive to my A:
(flashcard).  It was created by using the "record function" in the macro
feature and then fine tuned.  (Please note that I use Buddy on my HP which
as far as I am concerned is almost a must).

Here it is.  You can easily make your own using it as an example.

Although, that is a neat trick, I was looking for totally portable solution. But than again, how many times I'm gonna download something straight into the LX? Not enough to justify space on my flash card! So that might be overall best solution, and I'm already running McAfee VirusScan on my Win95, only interlnk/intersvr are missing.

Hi All-

I've heard mention of some of these large flash cards, but every URL

definitive answer to where I can find one (of the ~40 MB size range or
larger, uncompressed) and how much I should expect to pay?

Thanks in advance.

Hi All-

For anyone using Lotus Agenda, do you start the program with any
command line switches or is there a menu item that I can select once
running the program so that the display is more friendly to the grey
scale display of the 200LX?

Just to be able to read them, I have to continuously change the
contrast around for the various screens that Agenda pops up because I
suppose they're trying to come up in color and they are therefore
unreadable.

Is there a solution to this?

Thanks!

Go to www.isn.com and search for Simple Technologies 40MB card.  I believe the
part number is has STI40 in it.  It's only $270, and it's one of the best flash
cards around.  Sometimes they're out of stock though...

On the other hand, you might want to wait, as Bernie Torbik has said that they
will soon be coming out with cheaper, higher-capacity cards like 64MB cards for
not much more money.

I faced the problem that I was not able to switch to another SC
session without pressing an additional key in addition to the
standard switching key. So I have got to press FN+F2 (switching to
session 2) _and_ after that e.g. Cursor down; SC only reacts after
that Cursor down. That leads to the serious problem that
SysMan-Alarms do not come up without pressing buttons from time to
time while working with Excel. My workaround is the installation of
HP Alarm in the Excel-Session but that is not the optimum in my view.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Subject:      Failed IR bulb in 200LX?  How to fix?

Hi All-

I've recently been asking questions on why my IrDA print drivers don't
seem to work on my 200LX.  Thanks for all the kind answers.

Through some troubleshooting, however, I've come to the conclusion
that the problem is probably (I put the liklihood at ~95%) a failed IR
light bulb in the palmtop...

So, that leads to my wondering if I can replace this light bulb?  I've
had the 200LX open to install Mack's 2x speed upgrade and 4MB RAM
upgrade, and I'm guessing I'd have to open it again to replace the
light bulb, but I'm wondering if anyone here has any experience with
this.  Maybe all I need to do is just unscrew the old one and screw in
the new one, but I dunno.  And besides, where would I find the
replacement light bulb?

Thanks for any help.

 Spring fever?  Oversensitivity?  Jerks? ( snip)

I agree.  I am normally a passive reader of the list, but lately this has
really turned me off to the listing (but not the 200LX :)).  I can say that
between Alex, Carpman, anywhine that contributed to the 32MB
thread.............
I am glad that M$ OUTLOOK lets you group by topic.  It made the "group by"
and "delete" option easier to perform.  Some of it was crap, some
valid....but it lasted too long.

Hi
I followed your instructions and when I start windows from a dos prompt

Hi Kevin,

        If the IR light source is like any other I have delt with, they are
extremely robust LEDs.  Very hard to kill.  How did you determine that
yours is dead?  The Radio Shack infared cards probably won't show the
IR's output due to it's low levels.  If you can find someone with a
nightvision scope you can easily test your LED.  You might try demoing a
nightvision scope at a store like Big 5 (with your LX of course).

You need to load SETVER.EXE in config.sys and configure it to tell WIN.COM it
is running on DOS 3.3.  That will take care of the error.

I tried various ways of using the IR capability: Everything from
attempting to print to my IrDA compliant printer (I know the problem
is not with the printer, because this was successful with another
200LX), to running a program called Remote Commander (designed to turn
your 200LX into a remote control for your stereo - kinda slick), to
trying to link up two 200LX's via the IR interface.

In the latter case, with other palmtop sitting next to mine and me
having just pressed "connect" on the other palmtop, both say something
like: "attempting to establish connection", but the connection fails.
When I press "connect" on mine, the other palmtop doesn't acknowledge.
In other words, my 200LX can "hear" the other 200LX, but the other
200LX cannot "hear" mine.

When I factor in the fact that I've dropped mine on several occasions,
I figure it's probably not all that unlikely that the bulb filament
failed or something.  I dunno.  I just figure that it's probably that
because of all the evidence.  I have a x2 upgraded 200LX and
considered that this upgrade might have something to do with it, but
then someone else on the list told me that they have the IrDA print
drivers running on their x2 upgraded 200LX, so that's probably not it.
I can't come up with anything other than the bulb.  I'm open to ideas,
though.

Actually, there is no filament per se.  It's an LED, which works by sending
electrons across a junction of silicon; at the point the two dissimilar types
join, light photons are emitted when you pass electricity through it.

They're usually surrounded by a thick plastic shell, and for this reason are
almost IMPOSSIBLE to destroy.  You can kill them fairly quickly by reversing
polarity or by overvoltaging them, but they'll stand up to a LOT of physical
abuse.

Have you tried connecting with the wired serial port?  If that doesn't work,
it's likely something on the motherboard and not the LED itself that's failed.

I'll bet the solder conection to the motherboard broke.  I would look at
that.

     Hi!
     some time ago this was on the list and someone told us to get
     SETVERM.EXE. This works great for me and you do not have to tell it
     anything. Do not know any more where I got it though. Sorry.

SETVERM works great, and it ought to be posted to a web site, BUT, if you try
to run DOS programs from Windows, while running SETVERM, it will give you a
weird error about not running OS/2 programs.

How do I configure it to tell win.com it's running in dos 3.3. It's in my

Well, with a name like 'HPLX' you'd expect it to cover all HPLX palmtops,
which it does (doesn't it??)- it just happens to correspond to mainly the
200LX and occasionally the 100 and 95LX. The 100LX is very similar to the
200, so a lot of things apply to both series. The 95LX is different, yet I
couldn't think of a better place for a 95LX user to ask a question since
some of the readers (including myself) are former 95LX users.  Believe me,
I've tried asking 95LX related questions in the palmtop newsgroups and I
got no help at all. You'd have a much better chance on the list.

As for all the messages you don't find appropriate: "DELETE THEM!". When I
first joined the list I tried to read/browse through everything. It soon
became too much, however, and now I delete things depending on topic
(obviously if I'm not sure what the topic covers I read the message).

I think this "quick and dirty" selection can be justified - afterall if we
say that a discussion on using Lotus Agenda is going on (as it has several
times already) and I know I have no intentions of using Agenda on my LX
then the chances of me adding anything constructive to the discussion are
slim at best and thus I might as well delete the messages without reading
them.

I never saw the original message from David (must've deleted it ;-), but I
think things are working just fine right now. Surely, splitting things up
would only further weaken the LX community.

Before I installed Agenda I loaded it onto my desktop first.  Ran the program and set
the display to mono.  Then copied the relevant files to my 200LX.

Well, it probably wouldn't be too hard to make a program that does what
you want - all the information is stored on the HPLX-L HTML-pages anyway.

From a quick look I could tell (count) the following information:

Since 'Sat, 28 Feb 1998 21:16:59 -0800' you have posted 52 messages.
46 of those have been replies to other messages and the last 6 have been
new messages.

Since 'Mon, 2 Mar 1998 00:28:32 +0100' I have posted 11 messages.
9 of those have been replies to other messages and the last 2 have been
new messages.

(NOTE: these figures may be off by one, I didn't bother to check.)

It's not that hard to do - I merely copied from a Netscape window to a
text file and then ran grep a few times on that.

BTW. Some newsgroups have the policy not to publish such information,
because it usually "encourages" people to post more ("Gee, did he really
post that many messages? And I only posted three. Looks like I've got to
post some more...")

Some general SLEEPON remarks may help:

Use SLEEPON only with programs urgently needing it. As far as
I know, this is only Windows and Word >=3D Ver.5

SoftwareCarousel does not need SLEEPON. But if you run Windows
in a SC work area, Windows needs SLEEPON in this SC work area.

For example, if you run Word in a SC work area, you can task
switch without SLEEPON. Word only needs SLEEPON for light
sleep, not for keyboard support.

Never install SLEEPON in your autoexec.bat. Use it only for the
time, your critical program is running, as I described in the
DOC.

Don't install SLEEPON prior to SC. Install it only in the work
area where it is needed.

Russell,

> ie start at a particular time.

The start up time of a macro is simply an appointment. 200LX
manual page 3-15 Running a Program ot System Macro at a
certain time.

You enter in description

||3    to activate System Macro 3, Alarm ENABLED, Location=3D Q.

For program

|c:\programs\programx.exe   To start program X. Same stuff as
for macros.

As for Macros, there are 10 you can use at any one time, but
you can save macro files, and load others.

The macros are simply simulations of a human typing the
commands or pressing the keys on the keyboard.

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

It will work, though for anything that you can use system apps
for. Filer has a backup command, explore that.

To run a DOS program like PKZIP or whatever, use the other
type of appointment, and make it run a batch file that does
your bidding.

I am being quite general, because your request was very very
general too. But ask for more details...

You have a good point there! The challenge is not setting up,

What an understatement. It is my understanding that over a
million machines were sold (95,100,200,700,1000,and omnigo
100/120), but we know of maybe 30,000-40,000 of them among all
the mailing lists around (PTP, dealers, others).

Oy! I can see the contents: 22 identical questions, day after
day... But I agree that this is what it may take. I resist
however, the choice of comp.sys.handhelds.200LX, my preference
would be comp.sys.200LX maybe comp.sys.hp200lx. I know it is a
handheld, but it is not the intuitive thing a newbie goes for
- they would more likely look for hp200Lx than handhelds,
IMHO.

Yeah, 32MB only to those who can justify it, shocking indeed.
Well, I am sure the list WILL change and a lot, and fast once
lots of newbies come aboard the newsgroup and find out about
this place. But that is not necessarily bad.

I wonder what is the capacity of this list, perhaps it would
be good to increase the ranks here as a project for each of us
over the next 6 months, then let's see what we have and if
this is reaching more people and growing.

I would be willing to send an email to each of our customers
to explain briefly about this list, and how to sign on. I am
sure customers will gain from this. If each of us told
everyone who knows about this list, we could grow here quite a
bit. (Of course, not just EVERYONE, but interested parties, or
potentially interested parties...)

> One can always refuse the invitation <g>

Sure, but meantime you spend time and money and bandwidth on
this crap! That is the problem, it fills up mailboxes, and
forces you to delete, delete, delete the trash.

LOL! Someone promoted as a prank a fantastic compression
scheme. It took a 2mb file and made it 65 bytes or so, and
also it would compress and decompressed almost instantly!
Fantastic.

Turns out he copied the file to another location and gave it
name. That name was in the 65 bytes. *decompression" was just
moving the hapless file from the other location, and renaming
it. Good prank. Several people were fooled. Pointed them in
the right direction: Can't have miracles, it is a computer.

I am afraid you are naive! The Newsgroups will provide you

Some useless material is always there (and I contribute my

noise to content to useful content.

Scholar? I am about to get a lousy grade in my economics
class! Where did you get scholar? :-) I am sure one of these
days we'll meet and shake hands, and one of will get a special
buzz out of it (probably because of the little prank in the

I went ahead and installed it on the desktop then moved it to
palmtop, and made a series of changes to accomodate the
subdirectory structure. It then started but told me it uses
DOS protected mode - i.e. 286 and up! Sorry!

Sterling,

Please look for SECUREDEVICE VERSION 1.4. This is an extract from the manual:

Copyright (C) 1994 by Max Loewenthal and Arthur Helwig - see chapter 6
August 24th 1994

SecureDevice is a device-driver that will help you keep your private data
private. It creates 'extra drives' on your system that are accessible
just like normal disk drives, but everything you transfer to the volume
will be encrypted using the IDEA encryption algorithm, and when you
transfer data from the volume it will be automatically decrypted. The
encryption/decryption mechanism is transparant to DOS and other
application programs.

Just type SETVER WIN.COM 3.3 and then reboot and it will report version 3.3 to
Windows, and you will load fine.

By the way, to anybody running Windows, be sure you get SLEEPON at the SUPER
site.  It lets you use the ON/OFF key, switch between Software Carousel
sessions, and enables lite sleep mode so your batteries don't drain as fast.

Well said, Ian! I agree to every word.

I have started writing something similar but never felt I got the tone
right, so I doubly admire your message.

This is normal. Something's been said before about the charging circuit's
proximity to the display controller or something like that...and the heat
generated by the charging affects the contrast. For some people it gets
dark, but for most (including me) it gets light...I just darken (On +) the
screen and when charging is done, I lighten (On -).

I disagree.  I have a macro which runs a batch file which runs the zip
program to do backups.  If I call it directly as an appt entry, it runs
out of memory.  If I set it up as a macro which selects an entry on my
application list, it has enough memory.  I think memory allocation just
works differently when starting a macro from the appt application vs.
starting a program from the appt application.

Subject:      Any Sprint users?
MIME-version: 1.0
Content-type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=US-ASCII

Several weeks ago, I purchased a copy of Borland's Sprint Wordprocessor.
Sprint, a ten-year old product, is really an awesome word-processor.
What makes Sprint unique is that it is designed as a "modular"
application: the editing and formatting/printing fuctions are totally
separate.  This means that the text on the screen fits your screen, no
matter how small a font you are using for printing.  The formatting of
the text for a particular printer is done at the time of printing.

The editor is also highly configurable, has a powerful macro language,
and allows you to create and edit your own printer and screen drivers.

I wonder if anyone else on this list uses Sprint?  If so, can you tell
me how to configure the editor for the 64x18 screen display of the
200LX.

Thanks.

From DOS, use the command mono8025 or "mode bw80", or toggle the screen
zoom (Fn spacebar) till you get to the 80x25 display mode. There are a
couple of other ways too...but that's why this is THE LX.

Unless of course you WANT to run in the 64x18 screen mode...in which case,
sorry, I haven't a clue.

I'll second Danny's comments.

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

I'm really interested in this setup. I want to try out how well SC works
before commiting myself to an up-grade (I've only got the 1meg HP but with
a 20meg flash card).

Any further info you can give on your configuration would be great.

Thanks

My setup is based on a post from Amanda Walker a while ago.  I'll
see if I can dig up the post and send it to you directly.  Here
are a few more details:

- I'm using JAM to compress 7M of my 10M flashcard.

- My SC pool takes up much of the uncompressed portion of my flash.  The
  rest is used for things that are just too slow with the Jammed drive.

- My startup files are all on my flash card (A:)
        config.sys - loads emm driver, loads JAM driver, mounts jam drives,
                swaps C: (internal) with F: (first JAM drive) using
                'jswap' (included with JAM)
        autoexec.bat - among other things, has a pause in it that allows
                me to exit before SC and the System Manager is loaded, if
                necessary

- The first time I booted with this setup, I exited from autoexec.bat
  and moved F:_DAT (internal mem) to C: (Jammed drive).  This allows
  me to run System Manager running from the Jammed drive.  I also
  created an EMM file on the flash, but this required swapping the
  F: and C: drive back to normal, and then creating the file.  The
  emm200 program only seems to be able to create files on C: (not
  surprisingly).  Add the emm driver to config.sys, and it still
  is used after it is swapped to F:


So in the end, my A: drive is the uncompressed flash, C: is the Jammed
drive, and F: is the internal memory.  One bonus of this setup is that
I have _no_ data on the internal drive, so my system is virtually immune
to data loss from battery failure.  Downside it is is kinda slow.

I have one full sized SC area for the System Manager, one full sized
area for Agenda (using 250K expanded memory), and a few smaller areas
for other programs that require less memory.  It takes maybe 8-10 seconds
to swap between SC sessions (my flashcard is s..l..o..w..).

If you want more details I'll be glad to send you my config.sys and
autoexec.bat.

-Brian

To change video settings while in Lotus Agenda, key F10, U(tilities),
C(ustomize).

At this point the Color: X will be highlighted.  To get a list of
choices key F3 and scroll to MONO (or whatever works for you) then
ENTER.

You might have to quit Agenda and reload for the change to take effect.

BTW, check out the Agenda (+ other PIM) users web site and mail list

Hi,

Can you add "PCGLOBE" version 5.0 to the S.U.P.E.R. site ? It is an
excellent referencing software on countries' facts and maps, it even
plays national anthem and it works beautifully on the single speed
200lx.

It is available from ftp://ftp.fys.uio.no/pss/pc_prog/pcglobe5.zip.

I did a search through the net, but the web address hosted by the
software company is no longer reachable, I wonder since if it is
obtainable through the ftp site mentioned above, would it be possible
for SUPER to distribute as well ?

I have one proposition for you people to consider.

Every time some topic is completed, let's make it obligation to our little community, for the person that asked the question and gathered all the answers, to make a little FAQ file on that topic.

So next time somebody asks the same question we can point them to the FAQ file, and for everybody to have some technical reference.

I think that would be nice, and would leave some kind of meaningful trace of this community.

I know there are some personal pages out there with some stuff, but nothing "official"!

People already spend time answering questions anyway!

Let's think about that!

Nedim.

I don't want to start a new philosophical discussion or flame war; but,
do any of the new crop of handhelds (HP 620, 360; or other brands) have
the capability to run DOS programs (a la WIN 95). I have not seen that
capability mentioned in any of the sales stuff.

Thanks

That's because it ain't there (the capability). Someone's supposedly
promised a DOS emulator for several months, tho I haven't heard that
anyone (other than the author) has used it. Look at:
        http://www.pyram-id.demon.co.uk/XTCE.html

Supposed to make your 60mhz RISC processor into a 4.77mhz 80186, which is
about half the speed of an unboosted 200LX.

Sun is working on a product called JavaPC, a Java VM for DOS computers. Does
anybody know more details about this ? Will it run on DOS computers like the
palmtop with low resolution ?

Also, Check out http://www.caldera.com Their DR DOS platform it seems is very
popular in the embedded market. They also have a browser and email client for
this. Maybe we should check out this for use on the HP.

According to http://java.sun.com:81/pr/1997/april/pr970402-07.html

"JavaPC works with 486 or Pentium PCs."

Just thought you might be interested in some new technology coming out.  If
this note is inappropriate for this list, just let me know (I know that
there aren't too many folks who are shy on this list!).


Under an OEM agreement, SanDisk will supply MMCs (MutliMediaCard) to Nokia
for the new Nokia 9110 Communicator, a combination mobile phone and
handheld PC designed for the GSM 900 market. The announcement was made at
the annual CeBIT trade show in Hannover, Germany where SanDisk is
exhibiting products (Hall 13, Stand C35).

     The MMC, about the size of a postage stamp, is the world's smallest
removable data storage card and was designed to meet the unique
requirements of the portable communications and computing markets. With
broad industry support by leading telecommunications firms including
Ericsson, Motorola, Nokia, QUALCOMM and Siemens PN, MMC is the de-facto
industry-standard for removable storage in mobile telecommunications
products.

     By employing the MMC, the Nokia 9110 Communicator will be able to
store, for example, e-mails, faxes, sounds and audio, travel guides,
dictionaries, still images, application software, large telephone
directories and numerous documents on the MMC. SanDisk manufactures MMC in
capacities of 2, 4, and 8MB. A 4MB MMC will be sold under the Nokia brand
name and through Nokia sales channels.

Yes, HV will view HTML documents without WWW/LX.  But you would have to
download the pages to your LX first.  WWW/LX is required for online
browsing.  A normal DOS PPP stack won't work.

Hi Tony and List Members,

I have a suggestion, why not just install and use Windows 3.0. I've
been using it on my palmtop for over 2 years now without any problems.

Yea, it takes up a little more storage space than 2.0, but you also
have a better GUI.

Well thats my my 25 cents worth. (:-)

does anyone have the original CPACK? I bought it when I had the 95. I am
looking for one file called DCS95 which can be used (like Laplink) to
connect to a PC. I have the one file for the PC called DC95 but can't
locate the other runs in the HP. Would it be possible, if you have it, to
 send it to me?

thanks.

Subject:      How do I circumvent copy protection?

Hi,

        I have an old game that I found looking through my old programs
(being a pack rat does occasionally pay off) that I would like to try to
use on my 200LX. The trouble is that the program has a copy protection
scheme that requires you to have the original startup disk in order to
initiate the game. Besides the fact that the disk are 5.25" (working,
in-use drives for which are tough enough to find these days), I'd  rather
not have to carry around the disk in case I wish to play the game.

        This is for my own use and I will not be making copies available.

        The game is Space M*A*X from Final Frontier Software (c) 1986. It
is a simulation about building a working space station, with constraints
of time, money, safety, etc... using the space shuttle. There was a
hardcopy manual of about 90 pages (estimating from memory - it's not
right here in front of me) that was packed with information, which is
very useful in playing the game.

        Anyway, if someone could point me to information or (better yet)
software that circumvents the old copy protection scheme so that I can
make a copy of this program, I would appreciate it.

Thank you,

Rus

I think a couple of neat programs for the LX would be:

1) a program that, in a single key-combo, toggles the numeric keyboard into
a NON numlock keypad with arrows, home, pgup ....  Possibly a sysman
program, or a tsr?

2)  a Units Calc EXM program that works like the built in calc and does
conversions like the 48GX calculator, in that it can take any combo of
units in a string and a base number and convert to any other string of
units.  I can see how the function labels would work like those on the 48.

I am not that good a programmer. Who could help with the first, at least?
The last would take some good programming.

Hi all -

Check out the article in the mobilis Magazine about Kinston Technology
introducing new ATA cards (Type II).  Price seems alright if they work
with the HPLX.

Last I heard, it needs a 386 or better (not really surprising).

If the internet site is your own (ie in memory); just use HyperText viewer
from the SUPER site.

Of course, this may not be what you want.

Another way to test an IR emmitter is to look at its output in the
viewfinder of a video camera. Most video cameras are quite good at picking
up the output of remotes and other IR sources.

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

I was wondering if anyone got those wireless network card advertised a while
back?
If so, I wanted to know:
How far away from a base system (wireless->lan system) you could go
(assuming you bought one of those and are using it too)
How far away from another card you could go (assuming you bought more than
one card and are using both)
Whats the current draw?
Do you have to buy netware software?
any www urls?
Thanks

For those who like PC Globe 5.0 there is also a US Globe 4.0 which has
all of the same features but is limited in scope to the U.S.

I can connect to anything with the wired serial port.  I frequently
print with it, transfer files to and from the computer with it, etc.

Somebody just mentioned that the solder from the M/B to the LED may
have been broken.  Yikes.  What's the fix for that?  Break out the
soldering iron?  Hmmmm... I was nervous as all get out just soldering
out the old clock crystal and soldering in the new one (the times 2
clock).  Wonder how I'd do at resoldering a joint like that...

Allen,
    It is amazing the things one can find.  The good news is I found my
original CPACK disks and instructions.  The bad new is the 3.5 disk says bad
archive!  I have the 5 1/4 disks but don't have a drive handy.  If you don't
get it from another source, let me know and I'll find a 5 1/4 drive to get
the file.

David,

<<  A normal DOS PPP stack won't work. >>

I just want to add a small point to this: If you can coax the
DOS PPP Stack (non-WWW/LX) to cough up and save your Web page
on the palmtop, then it would work, but it is a two pass
operation no matter what, except if you use WWW/LX!

Easiest thing in the world! (I may exaggerate there a wee
bit!) Download the Web page in question. Then move it to the
Palmtop. Then open HV and point it to that Web page! Done!

Use F9 to open the file on the Palmtop.

Good luck

Right, they can't run DOS stuff. There is an effort underway
apparently to create an emulator for the 80186 chip that would
run on those machines, and that would allow a DOS of your
choice to run them.

Normal. The circuitry warms up, and the sensor for temperature
on the palmtop is nearby, so it is fooled to think there is a
lot of sun (higher temperature) and so it changes the lcd
orientation to reflect that. You can adjust it by pressing and
holding the on button, then pressing the plus button or minus
button.

Russell,

The old editors I remember from my youth ;) were always two
pass deals: You write your stuff and maybe get a chance to
embed formatting commands, then print as another pass. I found
these very capable, except the need to print multiple copies
to get it right. TeX is an extremely capable package just like
that.

I have run across some software that may be of interest.

   Thesaurus. Spreadsheet. Database. Comm. Takes about 1.3 meg
   of disk space with spell and thesaurus and help, but w/o tutorial and
   "encyclopedia".          $20 + $4 shipping.  I have several copies.

MS Word 5.0               $30  + $6 shipping.     2 copies avail.


Also available:
 Windows 3.0
 MASM  6.0

Netscape Communicator Calendar allows you to import HP200LX appointment
book into it. It works great with English but sometimes (often :-) I'm
using Cyrillic letters and of course it appears in Calendar (Win95) as
complete garbage. If it would be plain ASCII then I wouldn't have any
problem but I suppose that ADB file is a bit different.
Is there any way to pre convert ADB file?

Thanks in advance

Subject:      pcANYWHERE

Has somebody on the list experience with pcANYWHERE or free or
shareware look alikes? I often find myself far from my home or office
computer and there is just the file I need.
During daytime my computers are and also during some hours at night.
In my setup I load Dosfax so that the machines can receive faxes. I suppose
that when running a program such as pcAnywhere requires a different setup.
Any input is highly appreciated.

Subject:      Pairware from Webcorp

From Simtel I downloaded a program with the name Pairware  (webnt255.zip)
which is supposed to form a network from two computers without a
network card.
I just wonder if I could run programs from the HPLX (DOS 5) with my desk top
(DOS 6.2) so that I could find out if programs may run on the Palmtop
without transferring the programs first to the HPLX.
Has somebody the web address from WEBCORP? Or where could I look it up?


All computers wait at the same speed.

I've used pcANYWHERE for DOS on the 200LX to remotely control a desktop and do
file transfers.  It works fine, but of course the speed depends on your modem.
I doubt you'll be able to run Dosfax simultaneously though.

There's an electronic version that runs on the 200LX at
ftp://ftp.libertynet.org/site/graphiti/hplx/

Look for the lxref files.  I think there are two zip files.

I'm sure this has been addressed before, but what is considered the best
configuration for connecting to your ISP, and downloading email on a 1MB
HP200LX?

I know there are some good programs out there like pine but it seems to
me these require more space than is available on a 1MB machine. I have a
14.4 kbps PCMCIA modem but no memory flash cards.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Subject:      A good message of hope for HP palmtop users
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Here are a couple of reason why HP users shouldn't be too worried about our
seemingly abandonment by HP:

1) Other palmtops are improving. CE 2.0 is a big improvement over 1.0. Maybe
when 3.0 comes out they'll get it right. They still don't have a simple search
function like the 3Com has for its Pilots. Of course Pilot users constantly
complain that the graffiti recognition feature seems to degrade with age
(probably a problem with the touch screen). Psion Series 5 is much improved in
its database and address functions allowing you to search in all fields with
some decent speed. For those of us you use Info Select, the new Psion isn't
that bad an alternative (however they still have ignored adding serious
financial and solving functions to the calculator).

2) New power technology that could dramatically increase the hours that high
drain devices (like cellular phones, laptops, subnotebooks, ect) is miniature
fuel cell technology. The technology could mean a portable fuel cell that
could drive a cellular phone for 100 hours vs the standard 1-2 hours with
conventional batteries at just half the weight of standard batteries. Just
imagine a Toshiba Libretto with that kind of power life. Imagine how this kind
of power life could create even smaller devices. Check out
http://www.quad-net.com/archive/CELL1-26LANL

3) LEPs (light-emitting polymers)  promise plastic screens that take up less
power than TFTs or back-lighted LCD screens. In addition to taking less power
they are also flexible (just imagine no screen to break). Also the technology
is brighter and is viewable from any angle. The technology is still five years
away from being used widely. Check out:
http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/content/reut/0216/285255.html

In other words 3-5 years from now when our HP's break down I think you'll be
able to buy the next generation of the Toshiba Libretto,  that runs Windows
2001 and can be powered 50-100 hours with no problem. With a more powerful
energy technology I bet the next form factor will be similar to today's
portable CD player but with what then be then recordable DVD technology. So I
wouldn't worry about the future of our palmtops. Just hold onto our HP's and
wait for technology to give us what is on our desktops with us all the time.

subscription to your actual team, i got more than 200 msgs and less than 1
percent is usefull.
sorry, i am not beeing rude, but that is a lot.
we should organize a new team, with people that want to hear specifically on
theyr model, in my case the hp 200 lx.
lets think about that ??
david, if you want, i am number two on your team.

There is a fun and easy way to test the IR transmission if you have a
Camcorder.
First, connect the camcorder in recording mode to your television
set for display of the image.
Second, start a " Remote Comander" software on your palmtop and send a
IR command.
Third, point your HP to the camcorder and watch the IR signal being displayed
on the TV screen.

If you see the signal on the TV screen, then your IR led is still working.

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

Sorry about the rant,

Phil

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

Sure it's older technology (like the 100LX) but there are still some
30,000-50,000 BBSs world wide and many of them offer Internet email.
This solution is quick, tight, and efficient.

It's too early in the development phase of this product.  This will be a
$200.00 product when it is mature (probably in another year or two).  If
you want to be in the "bleeding" edge of technology, you typically pay for
it.   If you wait, you'll have all sorts of wireless network
devices.....computers, printers, fax machines, and so on.

My advice.....just wait awhile.  There are a whole set of new standards
being written right now for wireless networking.

Pine actually runs on the server.  You need a UNIX shell account to get =
to
it but you can use the built in Data Comm application on the local end.
Concentric Networks offers this type of access nationwide.

I tried it a while back but became spoiled with Agent running on my =
desktop
and canceled the account.

Has anyone heard of versions of pine or elm that I can run locally on
my DOS computer? (what about Windows 95 and/or NT?)

I uploaded a copy of Pine to SUPER... along with a PPP dialer and
script.  It works great on the 200, just make sure that your ISP support
IMAP, not POP3.  Pine doesn't actually download mail like Eudora or
POST/LX.  The mail remains on the server.

There's PC pine. It looks the same as Unix Pine. You can run it in DOS, but I'm not sure what kind of TCP/IP drivers would work with both 200LX and Pine.

Well then I don't see how this is any different/better than running
Datacomm (or PCPlus) and dialing up and getting into your shell
account and running pine or elm.  I must be missing something...

Anyway, I am interested in a program with a elm (pine would do)
interface that runs on my DOS computer (Win95 and NT also would be
great) and would download my mail over PPP *to my local computer*.

You might look at ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/pine/pcpine/  .  I think
that the version we have here runs under Linux.

     Hi!
     One thing the CPACK for the 100LX 200LX is NOT the same as the one for
     the 95LX.

Moore's Law states that computing power doubles every 1.5 years -
it's been pretty good so far. I think that there is a corrollary
for the cost. But there isn't one for power consumption.

I mean, when they start sticking fans on the CPU that are bigger than
it...

Consider modile phones: the electronics weigh virtually nothing. But
there's that battery. (an inexact anology, I know)

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

        Actually, Eudora can be configured to not delete mail from the server.  Go

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

Chris:

Yes, I have /do.  I avoid the kinds of problems you describe by setting
up my .elmrc file to specify vi as my default message editor/viewer.
Using vi, I can easily and efficiently manoeuvre myself around in any
message with very little effort/keystrokes.

I've heard some suggestions for a PC version of pine.... what about
elm? Anyone?

I've taken out the screws, unsnapped the battery compartment tabs, but
something's hung up in the area of the backup battery.

I couldn't see anything in the FAQ on opening the unit, or on palmtop.net.
I thought there was a writeup on this somewhere.

Subject:      Mail on the HP

I've been following the thread on the reading of mail on the HP and here are
my thoughts on the subject. For the longest time I used a combination of
Datacomm and Pine or Elm for reading mail, but the downside was that I had
to be online to do so. I then graduated to Qualx. That was quite an
adventure, I had to install uqwk on my isp's unix server (I learned a lot
about unix doing this). Qualx worked very well for me and I still have it on
my HP and occasionally use it if I'm logged onto my shell account and want
to grab some mail. The disadvantage was that Qualx doesn't allow for
signature files and Qualx disables the address book function of cc:Mail, but
it is a feasible set-up if you have access to a shell account. During the
Qualx period of palmtopping I got a bit more ambitious and started fooling
around with packet drivers and got a couple of the various DOS PPP email
programs to work on my palmtop. At this time I had not won my nifty speed
upgrade from a Mack Bagette via a contest on David Sargeant's web site and I
only had 2MB on my 200LX (I now have 8MB and a my speed had been doubled).
The DOS PPP email programs were quite large and I just couldn't spare the
memory 'real estate' they took on my c: drive. It's no fun to have a PPP DOS
email program if you don't have enough RAM left over in which to download
messages. The lack of RAM space led to me deleting the PPP set-up and go
back to Pine and Qualx.

Sometime last year I met another person via the internet who also was
interested in developing a ppp capable email program, he was even kind
enough to let me look at some of the screens he had in mind, even though
nothing was really functional at the time. Some time passed and one day I
got an email message that was asking me if I still had my HP and if I was
still looking for an email solution. I had to respond with a great big
"Yes!". Once again, I was introduced to the same program, some things had
changed, but best of all it was now functional! I volunteered to be an aplha
tester of the software and began my duties as such. after about a month to a
month and a half of testing, emailing files, ftping files and a couple of
cross country long distance telephone calls, the software, 'Goin Postal, has
gone from and alpha version to the latest version 1.0 beta. The software has
been performing flawlessly for me and I believe is reaching a point where it
will be realeased to the palmtop community as a shareware program. Set up of
the software is a breeze, it supports multiple mailhosts, does signature
files, will let you shell out to DOS while keeping a packet driver loaded so
you can do other nifty things like IRC, FTP, Telnet, etc.. and best of all
it's small. It was designed to operate on a 1MB 100LX, so those who have not
upgraded to a 200LX won't be left 'out in the rain'. Those people here on
the list who are still looking for an email solution will have another
option for sending and receiving mail in the near future. It was the answer
I was looking for and hopefully once available to the palmtop community will
also be the answer for others. I'm not a paid employee of the author of
'Goin Postal, but I'm an happy alpha/beta tester who simply wanted to share
his email views and experiences with the list. Happy palmtopping!!!

i appologise for not updating the list about this project, but i
have recently started my three year NDBC and so have no time left
to persue it with the vigour it needs.

Any takers? i emailed Shier Systems with no response, Hagstrom
www.hagstromelectronics.com said they were willing to make a
dedicated interface, but were not in the field of writing the
software.

The author of the Newton keyboard interface tsr (ntkpac05.zip on
SUPER) said i could modify his program (which includes the source
code) but i really don't have the time and being way, way down
here in the bottom of the world, NZ, access to things is a real
joke.

i freely give anybody the right to develop this concept for the
palmtop community.

i have Bitware Lite on my desktop machine, setup to receive
Voice, Fax and Data calls. i call in with Datacom on my LX and
append "D" to the number so the desktop software jumps to a bbs
kinda interface. i have a directory setup with my most needed
files all crammed in there.

You can't do any remote control stuff, but it is free software
with many modems and is stable and does what i need. The latest
version recognises Cirrus an Rockwell chips for voice on either.

     economically.  While waiting to hear from the printer I checked out
     binding machines tonight -ouch-.  Maybe a used office supply house?

2. Determine a final registration price and write up a registration form.

3. Set up a web page to help support it.  This won't be a big deal, I
     just activated my free page at AT&T tonight.

4. Need to find the author of RED.COM which I use for the default editor.
     Currently I use the one from Net-Tamer, and though it says it's
     freeware I'd like to get real permission from whomever I need.

Anyway, I don't want this to turn into a sales pitch on the list, just
sounded like a status report would be appropriate.  When it's ready I
will post a short note here with the web address (if that's ok with the
list)

But then you must have read these messages like a certain gentleman has
read the bible (as we say in Denmark). :)

As Ian Butler and several other people have pointed out, the vast
majority of the messages in this list are certainly about the 200LX.

The topics change all the time. I admit that there probably has been
less than 1 percent of interest to me personally the past month. However
once in a while, someone will bring up something that changes my life in
a small or big'ish way. That something is definitely worth waiting for.

Apart from the fact that I have yet to see a newsgroup that was not a
complete waste of time, I cannot see that one on the LX would fare any
better.

There are a lot of very knowledgeable people here and if you ask the
right questions or wait for one of them to get the golden inspiration,
you will get your pound of flesh out of this list. One reason that you
have to actually ask, is that we over the years have covered quite a lot
of ground; things already covered are not going to be repeated until
someone asks.

I doubt there wil come one with DOS unless something drastic happens.
The hardware manufacturers and software developers are (rightfully)
afraid that people stop buying new computers because they are happy with
what they have got. They will therefore continue the brainwashing
process:

  Big Bill has spoken: Freedom is slavery; ignorance is strength;
  GUI is doubleplusgood; character display is doubleplusungood.

Seen from the manufacturers and software developers viewpoint, it is
quite more fun trying to make new technology.

If I cannot get DOS when the time comes, I will anyway buy a Psion as
things stand. They have always been more than a step ahead. Or perhaps
I will just forget about palmtops and use a small laptop.

Thomas,
I'm in the same boat re: 1meg onboard.  Let me ad my $0.02
worth.... I tried several different combos and got good support from
list members (thanks Jeff), but I never got a ppp dialer to work with my
ISP as they do not speak DOS (or Amiga, 640xx mac........).
So, I jumped at the chance to try palmtop.com thanks to Martin Paul's
generous offer and have been happy. Dial in has been painless and is all
done in under a minute. Yes, I know it's not dialling into your isp but:
1) It uses no memory beyond the message directory.
2) You don't have to pay for it (you already have :)
My ISP offers mail fowarding free, so theorectically I'll be able to get
my mail on the road by dialing a long distance # via MCI for .05 to .10
a minute instead of the .12 a minute that my ISP wants for their "toll
free" number.

As an aside, let me urge you to get a memory card anyway possible even
if you sell the card modem to do so. I'm now running with a memory card
full time and connect with a Cardinal 14.4 external I picked up new for
$25. I was supposedly buying a Megahertz pocket modem from a list member
but he ducked out on me (thanks John!). For now, I'll use AC. Take this
all for what it's worth, but it's worked for me.

I spoke to a colleague at Adobe, and the DOS reader requires 286 or better
(for the virtual memory handling).  There never was a version that ran on
a 80186.

Rod:

Thanks for checking.  Does your buddy know of any other companies
besides Adobe that make PDF viewers?  From reading a little on their
website, it appears that the file format is an open specification,
and in theory other folks are encouraged to use it.

I have a Simple Tech 33.6 communicator in the 200LX, and it
has voice functions.  I wonder if there is any DOS software
that would allow the 200LX to take advantage of these
functions on the modem and perhaps use the 200LX as an
answering machine.  It probably wouldn't be useful for
much, but it sure would add more "Wow!" factor to the
palmtop.

I found an old copy of Norton Anti-Virus, version 2, and succeeded in

Does anyone know where to find updated versions of the files that contain

Hi there,
        I e-mailed out 10 or so text/directory editors/viewers recently. To
those who received it, I apologise for the 1600 K file size. The files
were zipped into one 1200 K file which, when encoded for e-mail
transmission, became 1600 K. As far as I know everyone I sent it to
received it EXCEPT for one person who has an 61 K e-mail filter. I have
already sent a note to this person.
        So... If you were expecting to get some text editors from me (or you
are interested in a copy of them) please send me a note. Thank you for
your time.

Yes.  It has an engine update, which I don't want (the later versions do
not run on the palmtop).

Download that file (I think it's called 03nav98a.exe) and run it like this:
03nav98a C:\tempdir /extract
That should give you all the files w/o updating the install, So you can choose which files to copy.

Friends,

 With the talk of editors lately, I thought I'd throw
my favorite in the hat. Its called  "ted.com".
Ted stands for "tiny editor".The complete editor
is only 3K in size and works great on the 200LX
and any other dos machine. I originally got it many
years ago off of a complimentary utilities disk that
came with a special issue of PC magazine.
If anyone would like to try it I could email it to you.

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

And it's not the question of being "happy with what you have got". It's a question of life or death for those companies!

What would happen to somebody if he/she was to invent water powered car?
a.) He/she would become the richest person on the planet.
b.) He/she would disappear w/o trace.

Now, I hope there aren't any naive souls who would pick a for an answer.

I've acquired a copy of WordPerfect 5.1/DOS, and am trying (unsuccessfully
thus far) to run it on the palmtop.  It is behaving rather badly.  Could
someone on the list give me some pointers?  I would very much appreciate it.



TIA,

Hello list,

I am trying to have an English-Japanese/Japanese-English Dictionary running
on the palmtop. I have downloaded EDICT and also Eng2Jap dictionary, but
don't really know how to get them working.
Also I think I will  need some kind of software which will display Japanese
fonts on the palmtop

Does anyone have any suggestions I could try?

Thanks in advance,

     I have a old 296/12 with 4 MB of RAM at home that runs on PCDOS 7.0

     was read to do things first. Right the 286 by a couple of miles. No I
     keep my 286 at home and curse this one every time it comes up and

Run linux! (or FreeBSD)

A friend's Pentium 200 MMX recently compiled 26 MB of *gzipped* source code
 - in 20 minutes (linux copiler). I am totally incredulous.



BTW. I firmly believe that _sed_ is the correct scripting language for the
hplx's. It's fast, small and its regular expressions are extremely powerful.

Of course not! He stole it, like Steve Jobs did.

WHAT?! Hardly!

I cannot speak from personal experience, because I avoid Windows like the
plague, but talk to some Amiga owners who are cursed to have to use W-95
or W-NT as well. Mostly they would MUCH rather be using AmigaDOS.

Lucy,

It's probably too sparse for your needs, but do you know about the
gdb database file with about 686 common words translated between
English and Japanese?

It's at the SUPER site in the database area.

Sorry, I don't know anything about those other programs.

My wife and I are going to the U.K. and Ireland this summer, and I intend on
bringing along my 200LX.  Have any of you "road warriors" out there had trouble
taking the little machine through customs?  I'd hate to have trouble... And
this is our first time outside the U.S.  Also, does anyone recommend the
acoustic type coupler for modem use?  I'm probably going to have to check my
mail pretty regularly, unfortuately (for work purposes).

If you downloaded Edict from the monash site at:
http://www.rdt.,onash.edu.au/~jwb/japanese.html, I'd first say that you need at
least 7 megs of free space at a minimum. If so. just unpack everything--the
edict file, edic.jdx, kanji files, etc, in a dir namely kanji. In you path in
sys mgr. have the line:
a:\kanji\jdic.exe -v -f -b16|250. Within the same program you can also have a
kanji reader in sys mgr. Add another app in you sys mgr path such as:
a:\kanji\jrbat.bat| and you can basically read any Japanese text with
kanji\kana lookup. By the way, it's all freeware and updated somewhat often. If
you need more help setting it up email me directly.

The best Japanese/English dictionary for the palmtop is at Monash
University in Australia
http://www.rdt.monash.edu.au/~jwb/japanese.html. aIt requires at lest 7
megs of free space and it's freeware. For further info email me directly.

You picked most fanatic group of users around. Maybe thay would give their life for Amiga, but that doesn't mean anything!

And why do you avoid Windows like a plague? You have something better? Or you don't like amounts of money that Bill is making?

     Hi!
     I just came back from two weeks in the good old UK, London. No
     problems whatsoever. Not with security, they would love to learn more
     but no time. Customs again not problems. Did not use my modem so in
     that area I can not speak. Have fun.

My wife and I are going to the U.K. and Ireland this summer, and I intend on
bringing along my 200LX.  Have any of you "road warriors" out there had trouble
taking the little machine through customs?  I'd hate to have trouble... And
this is our first time outside the U.S.  Also, does anyone recommend the
acoustic type coupler for modem use?  I'm probably going to have to check my
mail pretty regularly, unfortuately (for work purposes).

Thanks,
Bill

Michael-
Have to agree with you. I got TED from the same source and use it on my
HP200LX. Actually, that PC mag disc had a few useful things on it.

I cannot speak for Mr. Saklad, but I personaly avoid windows because I
believe that no one should have any sort of monopoly on anything,
especialy the disemination of information. I also have something better.
If you like NT, go look at X-Windows, WITH the enlightenment window
manager (http://www.enlightenment.org) it is FREE and will blow your
socks off.

Now that I have said that, I would like to make an observation. Do you
realize just how off topic this is? This is a list for HP PALMTOP
COMPUTERS, please take you holy wars outside.

My wife and I are also going to UK(near Liverpool) this summer. Taking my
HP200LX and complete ham station(TenTec Scout, switching power supply,
headphones, key, antennas etc. Did this 3 years ago and 5 years ago...had NO
problems...they hardly even looked at the gear...but I did have my license
and bill of sales, just in case.
Have a great trip! BTW, I'm also taking a AT&T 14400 modem but haven't cked
what cables
or adapters needed yet. Our relatives have a computer with AOL so could
probably use theirs if needed.

HI!
I am planning to use my 200LX to program Solutions cubed Pocket Watch B.
I will tell it a on date\time and a off date\time and it will load the timer.
Originally I was going to use the IR port till I found out how much more cost that
added.
Since I am funding this myself, I will program a unit by hard wire, unplug and connect
it on site.
Off the wall comment.
Have any luck E mail me.

Sorry if I started something here. Just as you don't like people babbling about something you don't wanna read, I don't like seeing some "smart" thoughts over and over again. And from people who have Windoze on their desktop!!! Put your mouth where your mouse is<g>! Stick to whatever you're using and leave others alone. I used *many* different OSes over the years including Mac and many X-windows variants, and never said anything about it, even though, I still think they are pretty crappy.

It's just that this trend is *so* in, that people can't stop and think about it for a moment. And even on 200LX list, that's suppose to have nothing to do with that!

What monopoly? Can you go out and buy Mac, Sun, SGI, HPUX, AIX??? Microsoft created Windows platform, it's theirs!!! Now that they've seceded, everyone wants a piece of cake! How many third party companies are making stuff for SGI? Those guys are far more monopolistic than MS!

Now, back to the topic. I red really fine thought in PC Magazine (or was it PC Computing), about the future of PC/Windows/GUI. Author said that best thing Microsoft could do is to isolate kernel from GUI, and concentrate on kernel, leaving GUI to GUI gurus (like Kai Kraus & Co.)
Number one on my wish list is OS with NT's kernel and StarTrek's GUI. That would be a treat! Now is it to SFish to ask for that in small (palmtop) packiging, let's say as a 2001 NewYear's present?

And sorry if I offended somebody. It's Friday anyway <g> !!!

Nedim.

Dear list,

This is definitely off-topic but I would to share with you that QNX ha
s
got a working demo of an OS+Web brower on a 1.44Mb disk complete with
GUI. It includes a personal web server as well.

Would it be nice to be able to run it off the palmtop? (Unfortunately,
to run the demo, it requires much higher spec.).

Surf over to www.qnx.com to find out more.

No, I don't work for qnx, just been told by a friend 'bout it.

<This story is not a WinCE flame, just thought the list would enjoy it.>

I bought a used 320LX some time ago, to learn the quirks of WinCE.  Overall,
it's not bad (compared to other M$ ventures, they actually made the code
somewhat tight).  But I wound up returning to my 200LX, especially after I got
the 2x 32MB upgrade from Mack.

However, I still use the 320 everyday...

The synthesized .WAV files make for a great alarm clock.  <grin>

Hi all -

At about rhe same time that Lotus came out with Agenda, one of its
leading products for DOS was Magellan - a file indexer/finder with
viewers for word processors, database and ASCII programs of the day.

As with Agenda, this program was dincontinued and many people in the
LOTUSB forum of CompuServe lamented the lack of viewer development.

Except for its size, it might be an excellent finder/viewer for the HPLX
and it is now made available for download by Lotus at
"ftp://ftp.support.lotus.com/pub/desktop/Magellan/2.x/misc/mg2inst.exe"
which is captioned by Lotus as"784K  Magellan 2.0 - Complete program
(ready for install)".

Viewers (perhaps updated from those in mg2inst.exe) are in the same
directory.

You shouldn't have any need for an acoustic coupler. We've had sockets in
the UK for longer than I care to remember! You will need an adaptor =
though,
because we use a far superior type of phone connector :-)  They are =
readily
available over here if you can't easily get one in the States. We often
have to buy them to deal with US originated telephones and modems. Any
largish town will have a phone shop or electronics dealer - Tandy, the UK
version of Radio Shack keep this sort of thing in stock.

The best Japanese/English dictionary for the palmtop is at Monash

http://www.rdt.monash.edu.au/~jwb/japanese.html. aIt requires at lest 7
megs of free space and it's freeware. For further info email me directly.

Subject:      good source of mini-DIN parts for Newton kb<->HP cable?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I'm looking for a female mini-DIN plug to put on the end of a 200lx serial
cable so I can use my Newton kb with the palmtop. I know that I could cut
off the mini-DIN male plug on the Newton kb and make it HP-only, but I'd
much rather make a small adapter cable. I've had no luck finding the female
mini-DIN at Radio Shack or local Macintosh dealers. Any other ideas? US
sources preferred.

Thanks.

Danif you can work your way around the Monash site, there is a palmtop archive someplace that
has a German/English dictionary--freeware. I no nothing else about it. I think the easiest way
to find the link to the archive is to go to the Palmtop Paper site and look through the links
until you find someone's link to Monash.

Hi Bill

I have travelled extensively through many countries.. There has never been
ANY hassle with customs anywhere.

One thing you may have to do is use ATX3 in your init string as your modem
may not recognise UK dialtone.  X3 tells the modem to dial without detecting
dialtone.

UK connector may need to be wired by you. To that end a cord with bell
connector and bare wires the other might be handy to take.

Hope this helps

Lots of comments about how it might slow the system... Has anyone ACTUALLY

Any comments from Mack?

Hi all

I have an 8meg doublespeed.  I have found it powered on every now and then
for no apparent reason.

Has anyone else had this happen?

I lost info once and almost on a second occasion.

I'm curious if this is a common occurrence or if I may have a fault here.

Any possible explanations/cuases would help.

Regards

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

Tony thanks for the Monash site suggestion.
I downloaded the file and the program seems to work good.

I was wondering if anybody has the German files mentioned in the Nov/Dec =
'97 PTP entitled "Using the HPLX and DBLearn as a Learning Tool"?  I =
wrote the author but have not yet heard from him.  The files I'm looking =
for are=20

Peter,

        Mouser Electronics at Mouser.com has them.  Buy two of insurance, as
they are difficult work with.

Russel,  you ask,

I asked a couple of weeks ago if anyone with a 32meg has it stacked/Jammed.
<snip>  Has anyone ACTUALLY tried it?

If you are contemplating a purchase (however remotely), drop Mack a line at:

         mack@times2tech.com

I expect that he can help.  From personal experience, I know that stacker 4.0
slows down flash card reads and writes "substantially."

For most things, even a 3 or 4 times slow down makes little difference, and I
remember the stacker differences as being in that range.  There was a thread
on speed testing flash cards which might interest you.

On my double speed, 6M HP, I currently use stacker for all but one of my
cards.  For On Line Bible files, disc compression is counter productive, so I
don't use it on my Bible card.  I seldom notice a time lag.  Writing large
files to disk may take a few seconds, but it takes time to boot and close my
desk computer, too.

I'm sending a 200LX to Mack on Monday for the 32M fix.  I expect that to be
the end of Stacker for me.  I will switch to Zipping seldom used text files,
but leaving the binaries and day to day files full size on either the 32M
onboard drive, or a newly un-stack'd card.

cordially,

lynn m. cavendish

Hi Ed,

Thanks for your useful tips on the undocumented filer feature regarding
creating a "filer.ini" file featured in current issue of HP Palmtop
Paper for direct running of programs within the filer program. I was
wondering where are all the built-in System Manager programs are stored
in the palmtop ?
For example,
how to launch 123 associated with WK1 extension ?
how to launch MEMO associated  with DOC extension ?
how to launch Notetaker and Database  in filer ?

Can you please kindly e-mail me a copy of your "Choice.LXB" ?

Thanks in advance.

there is also a tip if it is crashing:

Occasionally, when I sync with Transfile I get a message that I lost the
connection even though I am still connected and the file that was
transferring will not transfer. When I go back and try and transfer that
same file I get the same message at the same point in the transfer. It
doesn't matter what size the file is though it doesn't happen with all
files. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.

What you have is the config of your 123 set to "Manual
Calculation" so to get the correct results from your spreadsheet
without changing anything, press F9 {Calc} and 123 will rush
through and do all the pending calculations.

To reset the config to auto, press /wgra (Worksheet, Global,
Recalc, Automatic)

To save the state, press /wgdu

Yes, that was what I was trying to say: the "you" is the user.

Of course the companies should aim at making money and one can hardly
blame them from trying to create a monopoly.

The CE computers are following the same tendency as other software,
namely that we need next years hardware to run it comfortably.

To me a computer is a tool used for work and pleasure. The Oberon
language with built-in GUI operating system have shown that it is
possible to make an *efficient* GUI that is not top-heavy (IEEE Computer
1995,64) and therefore can run confortably on last years hardware.

I wonder what a screwdriver would look like if designed by Microsoft?

I concur.  I've tried a few DOS emailers but nothing compares to the advantages
of the built in cc:Mail.  The best part is "Cut & Paste."  Plus, it removes the
digest headers which were so anoying.

I keep a GDB file of email addresses which I use to generate ADE files and keep
a secondary listing.  I could not copy & paste addresses (easily) from my
custom list to a DOS app.

I have yet to buy WWW/LX to compare.  Has anyone used both?

Yes, you're right.  But I'm getting a "formula computation error" when I
hit F9 to manually recalc.  I guess I'll just have to search through the
sheet and try to find out why, since the software isn't telling me which
particular formula it's trying to compute.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Kiru-

1  The HP System Manager only allows about 90K for DOS programs,
unless you either change this in SETUP or add the "pipe" symbol
(İshift¨\) to the end of the path entry in the AppMgr "add
application" screen.  For example    c:\apps\hv.exe |   This will give
your app all remaining free memory to run in.  You can also add a
number after the "pipe" symbol and you will get that amount of memory
(in K).  Foe example   a:\vde.exe |250   will provide 250K for vde to
run (if there is 250K available).


2  In order for the icons to show up when adding new apps to AppMgr,
they must be in the same directory as the application, and have the
same name (except for the extension).  For example   for hv.exe  the
icon should be in the same directory and called  hv.icn

Check page 11 of The PTP July/August 1997.

It talks about using WWW/LX, HV, and GET.COM to DL and read Newspapers
offline. The batch file NEWS.DAT that was used can be found at:

I've been using Transfile 200 to synch and on occasion I will get a

You could try /ws which gives the worksheet status and will point
out any circular loops in your formulae...

Hi Tony and List Members,

What are you Remote settings?

I have my baud rate set at 38400 on both the palmtop and desktop.
Try setting yours at 38400 and see what happens.

If you computer is using resources for another program it will timeout on
Transfile. Have been able to duplicate the problem at most speeds for the
connection.

TED is one part of a MASM compatible program.

this is a freeware.
this is an exemple for this ASM and it come with the source.
to find it go to

I have the same problem, but only with large files.

Given the instability of Win95, I am not surprised.

Yes, that was what I was trying to say: the "you" is the user.

Of course the companies should aim at making money and one can hardly
blame them from trying to create a monopoly.

The CE computers are following the same tendency as other software,
namely that we need next years hardware to run it comfortably.

To me a computer is a tool used for work and pleasure. The Oberon
language with built-in GUI operating system have shown that it is
possible to make an *efficient* GUI that is not top-heavy (IEEE Computer
1995,64) and therefore can run confortably on last years hardware.

I wonder what a screwdriver would look like if designed by Microsoft?

Can you download unix mail (in whatever format elm uses for its folders)

Thanks!

Hello List,
Thanks for the help so far re:setting up a Japanese-English Dictionary on

Now I'm thinking of swapping my current 20MB flash disk for a larger

Does anyone know whether I can get  32MB or 40MB flash disk in Singapore
and who the supplier is?

Thanks in advance,

I tried to connect at 38,600 but Transfile only lets me connect at 19,200.
It's a pain because I have one file from a program that's 350k to sync over
and it keeps stopping at 40k. Is there a windows version of CpacK or just
Dos. I have the Dos version but there's something going on with my computer
that doesn't allow me to run Dos programs that's why I went to Transfile.
Thanks

Michael,

Like yourself i thought win95 was at fault also when the program kept
bombing out on my 486 satellite notebook but i now use it on a pentium
desktop machine also running win95 and it works flawlessly now! I have
transferred individual files that are quite large in size (like the
1519k q.exe from quicken 8) with no problems at all, even copied entire
directories in one go! It has _never_ bombed out on this particular
desktop (baud rate set at max.).

Seems that the program is rather choosy about its machines :-)

Hmmm...

Tony How fast is your desktop and where are you trying to put the file?

A or c?  Palmtop single or double speed?

if single try to go at 9600.. from what you are saying I would suggest a
slower speed even tho it takes longer.  If no luck I'll send
intersvr/interlnk for you then FX it across instead of transfile

I replaced mb's, going to a Cyrix P150 from a pentium 75.
Without reloading W95 or reformatting my disk. What you
need to do is update all the device drivers (by deleting them
and letting W95 autodetect and reinstall - maybe with the
help of your driver disks). I thought I'd done that.

But the system was flaky. Pgms that used to run in a
windowed DOS box required full screen to not lock up, etc. ......
The registry clean program said a device driver wasn't working
properly and quit. After much net cruising and hair pulling I got this:
Go into Control Panel, System, Device manager. If you see any
little yellow diamonds with a ! , (excalamation point), something
is wrong and you need to reinstall the device driver.
I needed to install the vidoe driver (new one from the net)
and things now are much better.

I actually tried the DOS version ON the palmtop. Confirm what
your enginner said. I also posted this a few days ago right
here. The installation was actually on the Laptop, then moved
it over to Palmtop and adjusted all the references to the
proper directories (great fun it wasn't :() And then fired it
up! It told me flat out it needs 286. I assume it needs the
protected mode instructions, since the 186 and 286 differe
only in that, as I understood it.

MIME-Version: 1.0

I'm having a bit of trouble finding a freeware or public domain DOS
editor to include with GP.  I'd like to use RED.COM which works very
well but so far I can't locate it outside of Net-Tamer and no word
from them if it's redistributable or not.  I've found EZEDIT but I'm
not as happy with it.  The TED series can't be used as PC Mag owns it.

Anyone know of a public domain DOS editor under 10k?  Several web
searches turned up mostly big or copyrighted stuff.  It doesn't need
any fancy features, just bare-bones text editing as small as possible.

If anyone knows more about the RED.COM editor this would be my choice.
Including an editor in the ZIP is the last hurdle I'm facing.

Look for a file starting with "htget" on www.simtel.net - this
is a batch web downloader that works with LXPPP (which you
can get from my web page).  One day, I hope to get the time
to create a version of htget which allows you to submit forms
and grab the results in batch mode (would be handy for looking
up stocks, or doing searches and downloading all the results).

Can you download unix mail (in whatever format elm uses for its folders)
and read it directly with cc:Mail? Or is some conversion needed?

The best solution for reading Email from a unix shell in CC:MAIL is still
Qua!lx (see SuperPage). This utility converts UQWK mail packages to the
builtin mail application. Qua!lx is freeware (or postcardware). Some
programming of macro's is needed to get it to work semi-automatically. The
program itself uses macro's to convert and import the messages.

Singaporeis is a very expensive place to get flash cards, I would not
recommends. However they are available at Challenger Superstore within
the airport transit terminal, and some Notebook specialist shops found
in Funan
Center. 40MB flash sells for S$1400- above (US$870 approx.) and CF 20MB
at
S$500 above (US$310 approx.).

I am considering an upgrade for my 200LX to 32meg or to purchase a large
CF 64mb card at approx. US379 excluding shipping, if someone in
Singapore is interested in sharing the shipping cost if we order
together, please let me know.

I've had no problems whatsoever, either domestic or international
flights.

I am currently residing in the Netherlands for 5 weeks, and had no
inquiry about my best friend at all. As a matter of fact, they were
more concerned about my laptop, making me remove it from the case and
seperately placing it on the x-ray conveyor belt.

I've also taken it to Cancun with me... again, no problems.

I usually have mine in a seperate waist pack that usually will be
required for x-ray as well... never had anyone ask me about it,
though. And for those interested, I've never had a problem with the
x-rays affecting it at all, either.

When my wife arrives at the end of this week, I suspect I will not
have any problems when we goto Germany for the week...

I have heard, however, that customs on the way back to the US is more
stringent... guess we'll find out in 4 weeks when I return to my
homeland of the US.

Sidenote: I have never been so glad to have purchased my HP than when
I travel... I've been logging my whole foreign experience while
abroad, and I'll tell you its very easy to do when you have a computer
on your hip. Imagine yourself at a bistro in a Holland city centrum
wanting to log and entry for posterity... I do it right then and
there! Invaluable.

If some people knew how many places to which my HP palmtop has been,
they would be envious of the machine alone 8¬).

Tony,

The only way I've found to alleviate this was to lower my baud rate of
transfer... I believe I ended up decreasing to a rate of 9600 for
non-interuptive transfers. I didn't really investigate any further.

Hope this helps.

Hi Tony and List Members,

Have you added any of the Windows 95 maintainace upgrades?

I remember have the same problems with Windows 95 and I think the
upgrades fixed it. I can zip the one that I have and send them If you
think that will help. also I can send you my LapLink setup for you
desktop.

Since it did not refuse to accept your formula when you entered it, it mu=
st
be something the affects the whole calculation.

I have never used the HP-123 but could it be a circular calculation (my D=
OS
123 gives the message "CIRCULAR" as far as I remember - does the HP do th=
e
same?) that causes an illegal calculation? İby "circular" I mean that one=

result depends on a cell that has not been calculated yet¨.

Try changing the recalc to go horizontally instead of vertically (or vice=

versa); this may of course result in other circular calculations but is
worth a try.

I haste to add: there is nothing wrong in circular calculations. Sometime=
s
it ahs to be done - I once made a spreadsheet that demanded something lik=

10 recalculations before it reached a stable stage where the numbers
stopped changing.

I can download just the stories I am interested in and read offline.
This does require some online picking and choosing though.

Comments: To: hartd@poboxes.com

Dave, Michael etc.

I had used IS in the HP200 and ISW in Desktop and both are in sync and
work wonderful for me. I had both programs running on one directory and
sharing data among them.  All I do is a the end of the week port my *.wd
to my palmtop and voila!!!, I can review my notes then load the *.wd back
to the desktop and enjoy a simple, flexible, and fast PIM.

The power and flexibility of IS against other PIMs is comparable to say;
Windows95 to DOS.

IS let you configure it as you please. The search speed is awesome and
the import/export is ASCII; hence you can take lots of small data and
organize them as you wish.

Note: Only thing you have to be aware is that ISW will create its own
userw.wd (can't be ported).

Isaias.

Now when I compared IS and AskSAM I didn't compare Agenda. Agenda is it
its
own class. It certainly is in theory a much better database that IS but
there
are some problems with Agenda

According to the information compiled by Chris De Herrera
<http://members.aol.com/pdcchrisd/pccrdpwr.htm> the XJ2288
draws 275 mA online, and 50 mA in both standby and sleep.

I'm trying to do the following with Lotus 1-2-3 on the HP200LX:
I have a column of data and would like the top cell to always
display the content of the last cell in the column
automatically. The idea is that every time I add new data to the
column at the bottom it's always reflected on the top cell. Is
it possible? Thanks for any pointers.

Cell:Content
  A1: An   <------ automatically copy content from bottom cell (An)
  --:------
  A2: data1

  A2: data2

  A3: data4

I don't think you can.  (I have been wrong in the past)
Also if you use the Quicken program for transferring your
palmtop's file to the desktop version of Quicken, you will
find that you lose the individual entries when you
transfer back.  The transactions are "combined" into one
transaction, they call an "adjustment".
Effectively you get to use the palmtop as a data collection
device and the desktop becomes the main repository for your
Quicken activities.

As long as you "insert" additional rows between
the cell referenced in the top cell, and the bottom
cell, the cell reference will "follow" the bottom cell.
example:

  |  a  |    b    |  c  |  d
--|------------------------
 1|       @sum(b5)
 2|          2
 3|          4
 4|          6
 5|          8
  |

now if you insert a row between 4 and 5, the formula in
B1 will get updated to point at the new cell B6.

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

Hello all,

I have recently acquired a 200LX. What a gem! I have a Sportster 1626
modem 28.8 upgraded to 33.6. It works fine in my toshiba laptop, but i
want to use it in my HP200LX. I have read and completed the instructions
that are in the documentation that supposedly allow it to woirk under
dos. It does not respond when reboot with the ENABLE.EXE command in the
config.sys. The communication program times out trying to connect to the
modem.

I have read that you need to contact USR directly to get the required
strings to make this modem work. Has anyone here done that? If so,
please post here to let us all know. The windoze scourge is upon us all,
and there are a lot of these 'windows' peripherals out there which are
still useful if they can work with proper hardware.

Thanks in advance,

Keith Grider

Assuming the modem has low-enough power requirements to be used in the
palmtop, you should just need d:\bin\cic100 /gen 1 in your AUTOEXEC.BAT to
get the modem to work.  It will then be on COM2.

I have not searched the web for refs to it..It may even be abandonware by
now.  Works great but not commandline suitable like red.  ie  The prog must
be started then enter a filename.

Let me know if you want more info and I'll try to get it.

Subject:      HPLX: Hinge crack fix, or new use for old AOL disk
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

My attempts to fix my hinge crack with glue alone were in vain, as the
problems reappeared within a few months (but then I use my 200LX
constantly, so this may not be surprising). I have made what I hope is a
better long-term repair, though I warn you that it isn't pretty. I took an
old AOL disk and removed the shutter. With a pair of tin snips I made two
1" by .25" strips. The first I glued over the crack on the top of the case;
the second I attached to the side of the lid, continuing from the center of
the hinge plate up along the lid (note that these are not at quite the same
height, so I had to bend the strip a little). I think that this will
redistribute some of the stress of openning and closing from the top to a
wider section of the machine, hopefully improving the overall lifespan. The
only drawback (besides painfully supergluing my fingers to my HPLX) is the
sight of the silver plates... But then, LittleGuy has been through much...

Steve: how anout terse?  The following is from their documentation.  I use it
as the notes editor with HISWORD.  Tom Hover's distribution strategy is to
require the end user to go pick his own editor, which makes sense, since most
people have at least 1 that they like.  He employs an INI file in which the
user specifies the name & path to the editor to be used.

Bill,

I've traveled to Israel, Korea, and Japan several times in the last few
years.  The most trouble I've ever had was U.S. Customs in Dallas (DFW).
They just wanted me to demonstrate that the HP200LX was REALLY a computer...
Otherwise, absolutely no problems with any customs of any country.

Have a pleasant trip.

Security at Seatac airport in Seattle once made me demonstrate that my HP
48GX was really a calculator.  Apparently the security guard was a real
math stickler, because he made me do addition, subtraction,
multiplication, division, sine, cosine, tangent, some exponents, and press
every button on the thing.  Eventually he was convinced, though.

It's working fine on my 200LX 2Mg.
What I like:
+very easy to set the alarm and the volume (juste type the hour)
+The F4 and F5 key
+Very easy to read the date, the alarm set,.. (and the time)

What you could change or add:
-automaticly set the alarm ON when you set the alarm time)
-add Shift F$ &F5 for decresing the hour and the minute
-add an option like today only in the section "Days in Week"
 I often use the alarm just for remember somthing like a parkink
 meter., and I don't like to use the apointment for it.
- quit with menu Q (not important)

Thanx for guiving a great program and your time to us.
I have installed your HPalarm on my LX
and I'm happy to use it.

Hi, Lucy:

I saw your email and offer the following info in response. FYI, we have sold
many cards to Singapore residents and can supply references:
>
Shore Systems Ltd. (btorbik@earthlink.net)  resells Viking Components
www.vikingcomponents.com CF cards for the Psion5/WinCE HPCs. Viking is
located a short distance from our Belmont Shore, CA office.
>
For your information, we have sold hundreds of CFs to WinCE and Psion users
worldwide,
including Psion's own Director of Mktg and Psion South Africa.
>
Viking's CF cards are superior to those made by SanDisk and other companies
for 3 reasons.
>
First, the read/write speeds are much faster due to Viking's use of the
Lexar www.lexr.com controller. Transfer speeds in burst mode are up to
10MB/second from host to interface for Viking vs. 6MB for SanDisk. Typical,
continuous write speeds are 750Kb/second for Viking vs. 450-500Kb for
SanDisk.
>
Second, power consumption is lower in sleep and write mode; about 30% less
than SanDisk.
Viking's power use is 20-32 mA in 3.3 volt write mode vs. 32-45 mA for
SanDisk. All Viking cards conform to the CFA's power spec, which calls for
CF cards to operate at dual voltage.
>
Third, we have much higher capacity cards than
SanDisk (32Mb at present; 48/64Mb in Q2'98) at a cost/MB that is 50% less
than SanDisk.
>
Our prices for Viking's cards are:  16MB/$125; 24Mb/$175 and 32Mb/$225. We
provide a 5-yr warranty from Viking and a 30-day money back exchange policy.
We can include an PC Card adapter for $15 that enable the CF to be used in a
notebook PC.
>
All cards are pretested before ship for Psion/HP compatibility. Overnight
ship is $11/US. Overseas: $15/ Australia/Singapore; $17/UK; $18/NZ; $23/EU
via USPS ExpressMail and takes 3-4 days to reach your door from LA.
>
VISA/MC accepted. Suggest you fax orders to 562.439.3678 or call
562.433.3987. You can e-mail orders, but pls break up msg into two

are using to view the mail, there are several character-sets
available for the interpolation of the characters held in the
post.

i should, by the way, expand on the brief macro in my last post,
as it is configured to run in the first column. If you have the
critical data column elsewhere, modify the {HOME}{END}{DOWN} to
read {GOTO}{INSERT CRITICAL-DATA COLUMN HERE}{END}{DOWN}/C~{INSERT
DESTINATION ADDRESS HERE}~

Pardon me, S Jobs didn't 'steal' it from PARC...  Surf over to
<www.mackido.com>. Check out under one of the article relating to who
stole what and from who.

It's working fine on my 200LX 2Mg.
What I like:
+very easy to set the alarm and the volume (juste type the hour)
+The F4 and F5 key
+Very easy to read the date, the alarm set,.. (and the time)

What you could change or add:
-automaticly set the alarm ON when you set the alarm time)
-add Shift F$ &F5 for decresing the hour and the minute
-add an option like today only in the section "Days in Week"
I often use the alarm just for remember somthing like a parkink
meter., and I don't like to use the apointment for it.
- quit with menu Q (not important)

Thanx for guiving a great program and your time to us.
I have installed your HPalarm on my LX
and I'm happy to use it.

I agree that this is a fine piece of work. I have noted that even when
terminating all programs and quitting SysMgr, you can get HPalarm to work
for you, provided you have installed the small (4k) TSR called HP Alarm
Watchdog by Harry Konstas (SUPER page)!

A small addition, modification to Alarm: quitting with Menu Q (I agree), or
at least have F9 as the quit key, like in other applications. Otherwise it
just looks great and works perfectly!

Thanks

Frank

Hi carpman,

yes there is I think, as usual on the super Super-Site. It's DBV
(DatabaseView). You can watch any .ndb, pdb and .gdb-file, but direct
printing is not possible. Instead of that You can dump single entries and
find them then as a dbv.sav-file in Your temp-dir, load it then in memo
and print it.

Bye, Axel

I use a program called OMNIPRINT which I got from an omnibook webpage. =
It is not perfect (and has a really ominous warning in the =
documentation), but I use it regularly to print thru my W95 PC (via =
serial cable) and had few problems. It's yours (or anyone elses) for the =

I'm interested, how do you have things configured on the desktop?

This is the first I've heard of a break re-appearing after a fix. Anyone

I have had this exact problem before.  To those who say that it is a
Windows95 problem, I had the problem running under Win3.1, which seems to
be the best OS for the program.  I have no idea why it occurs, but I do
know that whenever I had my LX plugged into an AC adapter, it never
occurred, but it has happened multiple times while running off batteries.
If it happens again while on battery power, I'll plug in the AC adapter
and see if it makes a difference.  BTW, I do Transfile transfers at 57600
baud using this setup (Times2Tech Doublespeed upgrade).

Hi all,

TransFileWin is not stable at all. I always have interrupted
transmissions, backup does'nt work. I tried it even down in 19200 bd.
This occurs either in win3.11 and windows95. A really not reliable
application. Does anybody know any solution?

    - GPS moving map display

2.  EZScope:
    - required the use of Analog Devices' 2181 EZ-KIT

Is the recommendation to add DEVICE=3Dc:\spd31.sys some
new magic?  My double speed works fine with DEVICE=c:\spd31.sys.
Is the '3D' part specific for the memory upgrade? Or just a
typo?

I think the '3D' was mentioned a few weeks back as a quirk of some email
handlers in dealing with equal signs. I forget the specifics, but for now
you just have to learn when to ignore them.

I have been shopping for 40 meg ata flashc ards for my 100lx.

Here is what I found

PC connection   40 Meg simple tech card     294 plus shipping and tax

MAgic ram       40 meg card                 299 plus shiipping and tax
                                                (may have a rebate)

shore systems   40 meg viking card          361 plus shipping and tax


What problems will I encounter using either the magic ram or the simple
technology cards since they are cheaper. I remember people studying
speed assocaited with larger cards. Can someone pooint me to the
results? Do any of them require special drivers to run in a 100LX?


                                Thanks,

I plan to upgrade my 200LX to 32 meg internal memory, and  keep a modem
in the slot, and therefore no longer need my MagicRam 64meg
(uncompressed) ATA flash card (purchased for $700 less than a year ago).
It comes with a lifetime warrantee and it has always operated
flawlessly. Best offer over 500.00 gets it.

The MagicRAM cards may suffer from the same problem as the Pretec cards,
namely, they function EXTREMELY slowly (on the order of 220 seconds to
copy 1MB) unless a key is held down.  In either case, go with the Simple
Tech or Viking card.  They're faster and offer higher quality.  The Viking
card should use less power.  Any such care may require the ACECARD driver
to be used in the 100LX, but I can't say for certain.

I use TransfileWin and only have problems (corrupted zips mostly) when
the target is an old Intel flash card (A:). If the target is C: or
a Maxtor flash card, no problems. Can you borrow another cable?
Or try this program on Simtel:

zip172.zip      41K  96/03/27  115K bps PC-to-PC serial file transfers!

I'll have to check the brand when I get home from work today. Don't recall
the specific name or that it was anything special (ie, it was superglue
from a drugstore).

I'll let you know later...

It runs out of memory internally. How large did you set up the
DOS in SETUP / System / Advanced? What App Mgr reports is
meaningless: What is allocated to your application is
meaningful. If you run from Icon, how much memory do you
allocate?

I am not sure how this related to HV. I am not quite sure I

I see now perhaps what Kiru means. Try this:

Add application. In the path name type in the path and name
of the _ICON_ you want to display, not the application! Tab
to the little window and show the icon. Keep tabbing to the
path again then type the application path and name. then F10.
The two DO NOT have to be in the same directory. In fact, once
the icon shows, you can delete it! Enjoy.

Let me see if it makes sense to pick it up. MS probably NEVER
invented aNYTHING, but mostly copied others, esp. the GUI
stuff. Remember the original they started with was Xerox', not
theirs.

True enough! It is now life or death for many companies,
because they latched themselves to the MS Upgrade spiral of
death! That is sad.

On mine, the epoxy glue is starting to come loose from the plastic case
after about 6 months. Have not figured out what to try next.

It might have been the glue that I used (a generic superglue). I am now
using KrazyGlue(tm). Also, please note that I am clumsy as all foo, so,
while I haven't actually dropped my HPLX, some of this Murphy may have
rubbed off. Also, my usage pattern may have a lot to do with it; I will use
the unit for 2-3 hours of continual use, and then pull it out of its bag
for a quick reference several dozen times a day. Lots of hinge action
there. If I liked Pilots or Newtons better, this might not be an issue,
however...

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

I'll send you the last results I have which includes the speed results for
the 32mb memory upgrade. If anyone else wants the results, email me. I'll
re-post the results if enough of you ask, to conserve bandwidth.

That's sad news indeed.  I used a cyanoacrylate type superglue (as I told
Helmut, I'll report on the brand name later), which is like water and
bonds very fast (in seconds or minutes).

Postings several months back seemed to indicate there were different
"thicknesses" or viscosity for this type of glue, with the most varieties
being available at special hobby stores, where people apparently use them
for jobs requiring thick to thin consistencies.

Mine was thin enough and slow drying enough that I was able to apply a
thin bead on the crack and work some of it into the crack with a pin. Then
I opened the lid and braced it in such a way as to close the crack and
left it that way for several hours.

Still, with only six months of heavy use, I may not be far behind you in
seeing a recurrence. I imagine a 2nd application of either types of glue
would be iffy, given the glue residue already on the crack.

Maybe Mack should design a metal reinforcement trim and add that to the
cost of the memory upgrades? All we need now are the Mag wheels <g>.

Again. What's with all the flavors of Unix? How about Sun or SGI? Why do you=
 *have to* use Windows? And, correct me if I'm wrong, there is at least one=

The question wasn't related to Bill Gates or Microsoft. It was merely a=
 reality check, that we don't live in land of bears and flowers, and the=
 correct answer was b. Bill didn't become rich by inventing the wheel, but=
 by having successful company for more then a decade.

Not really! NT's GUI is *good enough* for me, that's all. I look at the=
 entire product. And I (with clear conscience) say that NT is *so far* the=
 best OS around. Maybe somebody will make something better soon. I used DOS=
 from '84, Unix (many flavors) from '90, Mac during '93 and '94 and had=
 contact with Atari, Amiga and several other OS's/GUI's. Only Unix can run=
 what I run on NT, but NT is *much* more pleasant to work on!!!

Nobody is praising Bill Gates here. He is merely owner/chairman. Microsoft=
 has employed many fine and brilliant people from the industry. Chief=
 architect of NT was Dave Cutler, one of the original creators of VMS! One=
 of the gurus (I can't remember the name) of Borland and creator of Turbo=
 Pascal, is now employed by Microsoft. Graphics guru (worked for ID Soft on=
 Quake) Michael Abrash is Microsoft employee... And so on, and so on... I=
 believe I see Microsoft in different light than you! I don't have problem=
 with Bill being so rich or MS being ... (whatever you're saying it is),=
 because I know I have a choice to use whatever I want. And one more thing.=
 This whole "anti-Bill" campaign is nothing but a cheap try of Sun,=
 Netscape, IBM and similar, to remove MS from the throne and put themselves=
 on top. We (the users) have nothing to do with that! God help us if we ever=
 come to the point where we *have to* use *any* of the Sun's OS's, including=
 JavaOS(not), or (worst) some "WebTopThingOS" that Netscape is trying to=
 push... It's easy to bash MS, but do you ask yourself how many jobs are=
 created because of MS products in the entire industry?


I will be happy to move this debate privately, so if you post, maybe you=
 shouldn't post it to the list (unless the list wants to participate ;->)

I'll have to keep your previous posting on using the AOL disk shutter to
do a reinforcment if it happens to me again.

Now if we can only get someone qualified to do this consistently (like
Mack), we wouldn't have to worry about supergluing our fingers to the
LX...and combined with a bit of creativeness, we could end up with a
stylish "South-Western trimmed" model (sans horns of course <g>).

I'm not sure how practical this idea is, but it might be
possible to put the metal strips INSIDE the case... the
screen is easily (more or less) removable...

Is there a free (or awfully cheap) database program that works well with the
200lx? I do not like having to translate from the native database on the
200lx to other formats.
There was a thread sometime ago on dBaseIV, but I lost it.
Any comments? Give links, please.

I may do things the hard way but it works for me.  Yes, I do the data entry
on my HP since I aways have it with me.  That way I maintain current
balances.  Periodically I Export all transaction as QIF files to my desktop
-- I use the date of my last transfere and ALWAYS uncheck "Category" and
"Account" boxes.  On the desktop I Import the transaction into the
appropriate account and verify the balance.

When the qdata.pdt file on the HP gets too big I basically start over by
creating a new qdata file and importing a months worth of transaction from
the desktop -- and setting a starting balance.  I do this about once or
twice a year.

there is a new version of the Shark mass storage device called the Shark
Pro. The difference between it and the original version is that it comes
with 2 cables, PCMCIA card (for laptop ,palmtop) and parallel (for PC).
It weighs 10 ounces, doesn't need a battery or external power supply and
stores 250 MB on a disk. The MSRP is $300.
http://www.goavatar.com/products/shark250/shark_250_pro.asp
could be a good and versatile alternative to large, expensive ATA cards,
especially for those getting the 32MB upgrade.

Neil -

I am going to be visiting the UK in a couple of weeks and am looking
forward to an early spring in Cornwall. :)

I have been reading that household phones in the UK use a different pair
of wires than we do in North America and that one should make sure that
an adaptor purchased crosses the wires over to mate with a North
American modem.

Have you had experience with this type of adaptor?  What should I look
for?  By readily available, do you mean 'large centres' or should I be
able to get an adaptor almost anywhere?  All of our local Radio Shacks
seem to be out of stock of their apadtors for the UK.

Or should I be more diligent and get one before leaving this side of the
pond?

Another suggestion that I've read is to take a phone cord with plug on
one end and loose wires on the other and make my own from a phone cord
and UK plug set purchased there.

Cheers

In a message dated 98-03-24 12:13:55 EST, you write:

<<
 Can anyone advise me a way to transfer lotus .wk1 files to database format
like .gdb? >>
Sure.

There are three steps to the process.

First design your target data base.  4-7 and following of the manual is pretty
good at explaining that.

Second, you have to get the data out of the .wk1 file.  If you have a newer
version of Excel, quatropro, or lotus that will allow you to save as a csv
(comma seperated variable) file, open your .wk1 in that and save as a .csv
file.  You are 33% there.  If you don't, you will have to print to file & edit
out unwanted spaces and in commas.  This may be easy or tough, depending on
your data.

Third, you have to get your data into the data base.  A program like gbdbload
(which I use, and which is - I think - available on super will do that.

Since I don't know you or your data, I don't know if that is enough info or
not.  Take a look at the manual, fund the program & read the documentation,
and if you have more questions, e-mail me off the list & I'll be happy to help
with specific problems.  I have had good success doing this myself.

cordially,

Does anyone know of a stronger encryption solution for
the NoteTaker application than what it built in to it?
Something like a DOS app that asks for a password,
decrypts the NoteTaker database, fires up NoteTaker,
and then re-encrypts the database when NoteTaker
exits would fit the bill.

Or am I being silly for sticking with NoteTaker?  Are
there better programs for the purpose out there? I have
only about 150 small notes, so ease of use and security
are more important to me than full database functionality
and blazing speed.

Thanks very much,

I never heard of a trial version of carousel though recently someone
posted that shier systems might have some copies for sale. It's an
excellent program to have.

Related to that I just tried Zap's PolyZap and it is the best plastic super
glue I have ever seen. I found it at a hobby store that caters to rc cars
and planes. It is sold for lexan bodies that are found on rc cars, they
also still sell the older plastizap. This PolyZap is the only glue I have
ever seen that will stick to polyethelene plastic, the slightly waxy
plastic things are soemtimes made of. I don't have any idea how it owuld
work on the hinge crack but if mine was cracked I would hunt some up and
try it, I think it would work really well.

I have rare problems w/ Transfile 200 when the HP is running on the

75%.  This is also true using interlnk and intersvr.

This is possibly a power problem; do you have alkalines or rechargeables?
If you have alkalines, consider switching.  Rechargeables of any type have
a higher peak output level than alkalines do.  This may be what's shutting
the system down.

CIC weirdness.  Happens with everything.  Ignore it; the client usually

If you haven't already received sufficient answers, Hit "F9". or click on
the RECALC button, or go to / worksheet global default recalc automatic on
(or thereabouts)  it's a default selection; attaches to the worksheet; I
find it a useful tool to differentiate between updated ones and "not

Tried GDBIO.zip available from SUPER, is is much better than
gdbload.exe.

I downloaded an addin for 123 named 123dlm.zip from Lotus ftp site,
ftp://ftp.ccmail.com/pub/desktop/123/dos/2.x/utils/123dlm.zip
unzip and place it under your c:/_dat directory attach & invoke 123
addin, it was able to export comma delimited file for my WK1.(extension
of export file is DLM)


Importing date field is tricky, you should try to create a GDB file with
similar
field to your WK1 file and put some entry in it, run gdbio to export
this sample
gdb to see how is the date filed is written (eg. gdbio sample.gdb >
sample.doc),
open the sample.doc file you can then paste your DLM file to it (if
necessary
modify the date field structure to match).

I hope this will helps you.

OK, I found out that mine was just called "Superglue" by Duro (how
unimaginative). Nothing else on the tube except application instructions..
so it looks like a generic version of "KrazyGlue".

This means the card is drawing too much power. Remember that the card
socket on the LX is limited to about 150mA, tho some cards push that past
the limit sometimes... the symptoms are what you described.

Whow, that's it :-)

I'm sorry, but the handbook of my german edition of the 200LX describes
the DataComm F8-key as "Zeilenumbruchsignal", which means carriage
return signal in english =:-¨  Never trust a german translation of an
enlish manual ;-)

The other solution (easier, cheaper...) is to unplug the cord from the t=

the wall-end, the phone-end almost always uses the US (RJ11) plug.

Try running SecureDevice to create a new logical drive out of an encryp=

You would then keep your NoteTaker files in that encrypted drive.  One =

I'm glad to learn this myself.

Just a point of semantics that I found interesting awhile back... the
BREAK signal is not part of the ASCII definition.  Rather, it is
simply a condition on the line (a prolonged SPACE) that most
terminals and terminal emulators can generate.  I think it has its
origins from the days of mechanical teleprinters, when the data was
sent over a 60- or 20-mA current loop.  To BREAK the loop was in
effect sending a SPACE.  Apparently this BREAK signal was useful in
some manner.  (In my younger and more foolish days, I actually
interfaced a surplus Army TT-4 teletypwriter to my Commodore C-64.  I
had to sell them both when I got married, for some reason!)

I searched high and low last summer for an official definition of
the BREAK signal, and came up basically dry.  I was programming a
microprocessor that had an unusual (to me) definition of the BREAK
signal - it expected it to be exactly one character time long.  This
is *NOT* what most terminals generate.  It is usually 100's of
milliseconds long.  Some may even hold the line in the SPACE
condition for as long as you hold down the BREAK key.  If anyone has
measured or observed how the DATACOMM application behaves, I would
like to hear it.

Also, if any of you experts out there have a reference for an
official (ISO, ANSI, etc.) definition of the BREAK signal, I would
be most interested in it.

I have run into a serious problem and I suppose I have somehow done
something wrong. But perhaps someone can help me out. Using the new alarm
clock is quite easy and everything seems to work fine. I ran some tests,
closing my palmtop and waiting for it to wake up and flash the alarm clock
screen. Well, it DID. I tried the Alarm Watchdog and the clock worked even
with a sleeping palmtop in DOS-mode (so with SysMgr unloaded)! Fine. But
when I set my alarm for this morning at 7.05, nothing happened. I woke up
early and was waiting for it to chime, but I gave up at 7.10. So I must be
doing something wrong. Can anyone tell me what exactly?

Thanks

Frank

Checklist:

-Alarm volume (F2) is turned up?
-Alarm (F8)
        - Alarm on box is checked
        - Time set to AM
        - Days in Week..."Wednesday" box is checked

If all of the above are set correctly, then you should give other
specifics to the author (Jorgen)...maybe there's a bug.

HI,

Most probably you have not checked Wednesday as a day when the alarm should
sound- or you have not enabled the alarm. Please check and try again- it
has worked fine for me during 1 month time and I have tested it on 4
different palmtops. But if the alarm still doesn't work, then let me know
which other programs you are using.

Regards,

Jorgen

The point is that when testing it with the exact same configuration but now

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

Thanks to all the list members who responded to my question about what
email reader to use on a 1 MB HP200LX. I downloaded Goin' Postal last
night and am going to give that a shot.

One thing is kind of puzzling me. Looking at the memory allocation (in
Setup) on my machine, the system RAM takes up 636 KB and the RAM disk is
left with only 352 KB. When I look at my C drive in filer, it says I
have used up all but 82 KB and this leaves not even enough room to try
out this application.

When I look at the files under the D drive in Filer, it looks like the
files in the root directory combined with the files in the BIN, DOS,
_DAT, and _SYS directories take up a combined total of 891 KB. Also, all
my files in the C drive take up 249 KB of space.

Why wouldn't the amount of memory used in the D drive correspond to the
636 KB of system RAM shown in setup? And why does filer tell me I only
have 82 KB free on my C drive? Seems like it should be the difference
between 352 KB and 249 KB which is 103 KB.

Also, how many of the files in the D drive can you delete? It looks like
a lot of them are help files and the like.

I know these are pretty fundamental questions, but I would appreciate
any guidance anyone cares to offer.

Thanks.

The D drive is ROM. You can't delete anything off it, but then neither
do those files take away from your RAM allocation of 1mb, which are
affected solely by the system RAM use (your 636kb) and C drive use
(249kb).

The difference you spoke of (103kb theoretical vs 82kb actual
remaining free space) is due to the slack space in file allocation
clusters. Most C drives have a cluster size of 512 bytes, which means any
file that is an even multiple of 512 will efficiently use disk space,
otherwise there is a small amount of space usually remaining (called
slack) and that adds up to the discrepancy. Filer and other apps report
the logical file sizes (ie, a.txt = 403 bytes, tho actual disk usage would
be 512 bytes...and this difference is not noted by dir nor Filer).

Keep in mind that D: drive is ROM.  Yor can not delete any of these files.

RAM is located in C: (and A:) drive (assuming that you have not changed your drive
labels).

Hi everyone.

I am in need of a 28.8 (or 33.6) pc card modem to use with another of
my portable computers (not the 200lx <g>) and was wondering if anyone
on the list has one that's fairly new that they no longer use and wish
to sell.

If you do have one available please drop me a line off the list.

Thanks and regards,

OK, I took the bait and downloaded the beta for goin' postal.
It asks for a script file name for your ISP, though.  I didn't

supposedly the Shark drive can be used with DOS 5.0 and up. The drivers
are on their Web site. If that is the case, the only problem may be the
power consumption which is 380 mA. But they sell an AC adapter that plugs
into the wall and the drive, $30. According to their Web site they have a
special deal now that includes the SharkPro, cables, two 250 MB disks and
carrying case for $250.

Try a very old  MS project 4.0 for DOS
at:

ftp://ftp.libertynet.org/site/graphiti/hplx/NEW/msproj40.zip

I think it will do that, but no

Hi :-)

I am using version 1.0 and my serial port /modem supports high speed
serial transfers using a memory buffer. If you do not have this feature
then your file transfers may be reduced.

This is just guesswork but hope it helps.

Cheers

Look at GET.EXE, available as freeware in our Web site
http://www.dasoft.com (follow the path to WWW/LX then files
associated with it.

GET allows you to set up a list of URLs, then fire it up, and
it will run WWW/LX obtain these Web pages, modify the linkages
to suit the local palmtop environment, then logogg. You read
the stuff using HV off line.

No typo and no magic. You need to know a bout ISO
representation of letters. When You use a character set that
doen not acknowledge the rest of the world (e.g. Microsoft's
character sets believe there is not such thing as foreign
languages etc...) the symbols in that character set are
transleated. hexadecimal 3d happens to be the value of the
symbol '=3D' equal sign. When the email packages look at this
crap coming from the wordprocessors they attempt to make sure
you get the info, at all costs. So they translate in the body
of the message the appearance of an equal sign to the
heaxdecimal representation following an equal sign. So it is a
bit odd but you get a=3Db  to look like a=3D3Db but the equal sign
is not the original, it is part of the construct "=3Dhh" which
represents the symbol.

http://www.sandisk.com/products/type2.40mb_specs.htm
http://www.simpletech.com/pccard/cftech.htm

The above are the URLs for the spec sheets for both SanDisk and Simple
Technology.Simple Technology claims twice the speed of SanDisk. But I dont see
it borne out in the results here.

Another thing which I dont understand is the current requirement for
PowerSaving Read and Performance Read in the Simple Tech specs. The
currentrequirements are 20mA and 65mA whereas for SanDisk 32-45mA.
To me this kind of confirms Lawrenc Harvey's (footnote 11) suspicion that the
simple tech card drained his battery.


There is almost a $50 difference between Sandisk and Simple Tech for a 16mB
card. If Simple Tech is confirmed to drain more power I may go in for the higher
price SanDisk. (I have shortlisted these two brands because of their superior
performance).

The tests were done to get a rough measure of performance. Specific card
model numbers are shown only for listers who provided them. But otherwise,
there's no way to know if a 16mb card tested is the same part-number and
hence design that's now posted at the vendor's website.

Approach the test results with some caution before making a decision ...
we didn't apply any rigorous methodology in order to get a good
cross-sampling. You may even want to email the person who had the card to
get specifics before committing.

Hi Tony,

Confirming that from your Jam directory you ran:

jcreate a:first /a /s=3D (the amount that of the disk you what to jam)

also confirming that you placed jam in you autoexec.bat path and added=
 the
following lines to you config.sys:

device=3Dc:\jam\jam.sys
device=3Dc:jam\jmount.com a:\first

Looking forward to your reply,

I've done all that with JAM installed on my A or C drive and when I try and
use A as my JAM drive I get the invalid JAM drive message. I read in an
earlier post that someone had used F as the JAM drive but I don't quite know
how to create an F drive.

It's the actual connector which differs physically from the ones you use =

I have the opposite adaptor hanging out of the rear of my modem - it has =
a
US style socket so I needed to adapt that to a UK cable to connect to the
wall. As I said before, it should be fairly easy to pick one up at any
decent electronics or phone shop here, because people do use phones and

However I think you would be prudent to try and find one before you =
travel,
because it's guaranteed that you won't find one here if you don't :-)  =
You
are intending to visit one of our more rural areas, and that may compound
the problem.

You would certainly be more likely to find a UK style plug, rather than =
the
whole adaptor. They are easily obtainable in most DIY stores as well as =
the
phone shops.

Have a good trip - there are some very good breweries in Cornwall :-)

How so?  The Simple Tech cards seem to me to perform about twice as fast
when adjusted for palmtop speed (i.e. double speed will naturally perform
faster than single).  The Simple Tech card is LIGHTNING fast, trust me.
Much faster than a Sandisk and exponentially faster than a
non-key-held-down Pretec card (although the 128MB card seems to be
faster.)

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

I'd have to recommend Simple, if only for the performance gain.  Simple
was the first to offer a 40MB card for under $300, too, so it might be
worth looking into a larger card than 16...

Ok Tony,

Confirming that your C:\ is not jammed, but only the A:\.

Try running:

jdir a:first /a /q and see what it reports.

Jdir should verity that your jam A:\ drive was actually created. Also=
 how
much available memory do you have?

I found the couple messages on the digest web site WRT using the Cirque
EasyPad on the 200LX but I was wondering if anybody out there had had any
success using it on a 100LX ?
I've long wished for a scribbling capability on my 100LX and have been
considering getting a Pilot or something and putting the old beast out to
pasture because I find myself needing to draw diagrams/sketches more often
than not these days.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Quinton
This is what I originally did:
jcreate a:first /a /s=1000
Then
jdir a:first /a /q reports first.jam  1,023,488. I'm assuming this is my JAM
drive. If so, how do I move files over to it to run them in JAM and if I decided
I wanted to delete JAM how would I get my files back to my original A drive?

It will probably work. 98% of the time what runs on the 200lx will also
run on the 100lx.

I can confirm David's observations - I have a 10 mb HP Flashdisk and a 40
mb SimpleTech with my 100 LX, and have not noticed a difference in battery
performance between the two.

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

To me, this says the SimpleTech card is about as fast as the internal ram
(on-board).

If you write a working login script for a common provider I'd be happy
to include it in the LOOKHERE directory in a 'sample scripts' file.

BTW - I need to add this to the documentation, you may place comment
lines in your script file by starting the line with ;

Sorry to all for not already having some scripts, I've been burried
in the code and documentation instead.

I'm happy to report that it works scriptless with Earthlink.  It does
work with the weird Worldnet login too (they up and changed the login
at least here, it went from scriptless to needing the login name but
not password fed to it in a script).

I created the batch file and the message was jam driver not installed. If I go to
stacker will I have to copy all my programs to my desktop, stack my card and then
copy everything back? I'd appreciate stacker at this point. Once again, you've been

Hi Roy,

It appears that you're looking for Flash.zip. It creates a deck of up
to 20 flash cards on the palmtop. (see page 3 of the November / December
1996 PTP) also try DBlearn (see page 24 of the November / December 97
PTP)

Element: WOMAN
Symbol: Wo
Atomic Weight: 120 +/-

Physical Properties: Generally round in form. Boils at nothing and may
freeze anytime. Melts whenever treated properly. Very bitter if not used
well.

Chemical Properties: Very active. Possesses strong affinity to gold,
silver, platinum, and precious stones. Violent when left alone. Able to
absorb great amount of exotic food. Turns green when placed beside a
better specimen. Ages rapidly.

Usage: Highly ornamental. An extremely good catalyst for disintegration
of wealth. Probably the most powerful income reducing agent known.

Caution: Highly explosive in inexperienced hands.

-----

Element: MAN
Symbol: XY
Atomic Weight: 180 +/- 100

Physical Properties: Solid at room temperature but easily gets bent out
of shape. Fairly dense and sometimes flaky. Difficult to find a pure
sample. Due to rust, aging samples are unable to conduct electricity as
easily as young, fresh samples.

Chemical Properties: Attempt to bond with Wo any chance it can get.
Also, tends to form strong bonds with itself. Becomes explosive when
mixed with Kd (element Kid) for prolonged period of time. Pretty basic.
Neutralize by saturating with alcohol.

Usage: None really, except methane production. Good samples are able to
produce large quantities on command.

Caution: In the absence of WO, this element rapidly decomposes and
begins to smell.

Hi group.

I have just received from a friend of mine in the UK, his 95lx which he
has asked me to sell for him. I have the following items available:

* 95LX 1Mb Ram - US made. SN ABA3206A00824
  Screen, keyboard etc. perfect but it is missing two rubber legs
  and one screw. No bad pixels.

* HP Adapter F1011A (3-prong for use in the UK) - brand new

* 95LX Users Guide + 95LX Quick-start Guide,

* Grapevine Publications "Lotus in Minutes on the HP95LX Palmtop PC",

* Original 95LX Connectivity Pack software (on 2 5-1/4" floppies),

* Serial Cable (not yet in my possession),

* New Media HP95LX Palm Modem - includes 2400 modem + Palmterm and
  Palmfax software on the card (this is the only pc card modem
  ever made for the 95lx).

* Soft nylon case for palmtop + accessories.

The above items will be sold as a package only and i will ask anyone
interested to reply to me directly and not on the list. This package
will be sold to the highest bidder (no bids below $200.00 please).

Yesterday night I unloaded Buddy 3.0b just in case and that did the trick:
Alarm woke up my palmtop this morning and the alarm went off as configured.
So there must be some incompatibility or interference with Buddy.

Most probably you have not checked Wednesday as a day when the alarm should
sound- or you have not enabled the alarm. Please check and try again- it
has worked fine for me during 1 month time and I have tested it on 4
different palmtops. But if the alarm still doesn't work, then let me know
which other programs you are using.

I had this problem about 5 years ago. I ended up buying a US socket, a
UK connector on a length of phone wire and assembling the lot.
If you intend to use a US modem in the UK, be aware it may not recognise
an incoming call. Certainly, this was the case when I went to the UK
from the US. Maybe the standard has changed since
I am in Ireland now where there are no compatibility issues at all with
US phone connectors or signals

I have several users using Buddy together with HP Alarm Clock and they=
 have
not reported any problems with the alarm. However, if you are using=
 the
option Flashing Screen in HP Alarm Clock you have to dissable the same=
 option
in Buddy. Otherwise you will end with an inverted screen when you exit=

Hi all!

Is there any way to add or delete data from notetaker databases on the
PC?  I know you can use DBView to look at them but I want to be able to
add data to them.  What I am looking for is a free form database that I
can use on both my win 95 desktop and my plamtop. I ideally would like
to be able to merge or synchronize the data between the databases as
well but I know that is unlikely?

Yes, the 200LX will support the largest Type II flash cards available, i.e.,
220MB. The only theoretical limit on its ability to large cards should be a
function of DOS 5.x.

I've used it. It works well on an 2x lx w/ a flash card. It's pretty
fast and has good searching abilities. I stopped using it because other
programs I already had were as good or better for what I needed.

There have been questions about unanticipated failure of the HP ALARM CLOCK to
sound.

The most likely problem is that the person reporting the problem closed the
System Manager between setting the alarm and the failure of the alarm to sound.
As is noted in the documents, if you exit Systems Manager, you must at least
reopen HP ALARM CLOCK to reestablish the alarms.  The HP1/200LX is capable of
resetting it own alarms after closing and reopening SysMan, but since it does
not know about HP ALARM CLOCK, it can not reset that alarm.  You don't have to
do anything in the alarm program, but you must call it up to reactivate the
alarm.

As the person who noted the problem I have to disagree: Alarm Clock even
works when SysMgr is closed  (so the palmtop is in DOS) provided Alarm
Watchdog is enabled. No special action required! The palmtop even wakes up
to the alarm and flashes the bare DOS screen, though one cannot activate
snooze and has to hit Escape to stop the alarm. At least on my palmtop there
is some interference with Buddy (even without having set Buddy to 'flashing
screen').

**Thanks to all for responses on a suitable database application**
HOWEVER...
I found a database viewer (sharware.com dbfview.zip) which works well.
(older program 89? - cannot locate author)
Has anyone written a sys manager compliant VIEWER which views dbase format
files?
This would be the ticket for me! I actually only LOOK at my files on the HP,
the work is done on my notebook.

If noone is aware of a viewer, can anyone write code out there (dumb
question) *cheap?*

You might want to check out the LXREF program at http://comports.com/hplx
which has detailed information on the hardware of the palmtop and also
programming information.  It works on the palmtop or desktop both.  I put
it on my palmtop and have a wealth of technical info about the 200LX with
me at all times!

The LXSTAT program at the SUPER site may help. It's a DOS program that
reports on and optionally modifies a variety of settings on the 200LX.

This creates a circular reference.  Besides, if it worked, all it would
return is the value in the next row after the largest data value in the

I was one of the Beta Testers of The HP ALARM CLOCK during the testing
and I didn't experience any incompatibility or interference by Bubby=
 3.0b.

The only incompatibility or interference that I experienced was during=
 battery
charging.

While charging the batteries the Alarm would fail to go off.

Two (related) questions about Data Comm.

1.  When calling from a hotel room, sometimes its difficult to predict
the timing or responses necessary to dial.  Is it possible to dial
manually, and then get Data Comm to link up when I hear the computer
tones on the other side?  I know this is possible in Mini Fax.

2.  Is it possible to store longer phone numbers (i.e., more characters)

in Data Comm or use a prefix/suffix type of code that allows telephone
credit card numbers to be input as a single character?

Thanks,  Steve

Hi all,

Has anyone figured out a way to access the flash memory of an EXP card
under windows 95.  I guess I could load card & socket service drivers
but those would probably interfere with network card, etc.  It
recognises the modem part just fine (which I don't need) but I can not
think of a way to get it to access the memory.  Is there an alternative
flash driver one could use?

Thanks
Nick Fosteras

Is the serial port and power on the 200 LX referenced to the plus or minus
side of the adapter power?

Can I power two devices from one adapter, assuming it is capable of enough
power, without burning up my LX because the serial port is refenced to the
opposite side of the line?

Thanks,

If you shell out to DOS, SysMgr in not closed.  If you return to DOS by

Hi Bob,

This is how I have keystuff setup for Mileage.wk1.
I created a batch file called mileage.bat

Add the following line to Mileage.bat:

ks.com \&\mfr\emileage.wk1/\Z

System manager:
Name: MG&G
Path: a:\data\mileage.bat
Note: To get the icon to show I used ks.com first, and then changed=
 the path
to the above.

Add the following line to your config.sys:
device=3Dc:\kbuf128.sys


BTW: Ks.com and Kbuf128.sys are the only two files needed from the
Keystuff.zip.

Keystuff works great for running worksheets from an Icon, but to run
the other HP application (Notetaker, Database) from a Icon use SSMLX.=


SSMLX can be downloaded from:
http://www.thaddeus.com

look under the Japanese software.

I don't know if it meets your needs, but the HP Connectivity Pack includes

Hi List Members,

Any Air-conditioning Engineer out there ? I have written a few WK1
spreadsheets together for workiing out duct sizing friction loss, mix
air temperature dew point calculations, pipe sizing. I use recorded
system macros and the powerful HP Calc to solve for results. I would be
happy to upload them if anyone want to try out (for free ! ).

Hello Lynn,

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

Regards

Frank

Another thing crosses my mind - deep in the S registers for your modem it
will have one to set either Bell standard or CCITT standard signalling.  I
think you may have trouble with Bell standard signalling if you try to use
it in the UK (and it's illegal to do so - I think they worry that it may
send the wrong volts to the exchange and fry their kit).

I suspect it is not an issue now, as lots of travellers use US-purchased
modems over here with no changes.   But then down in Cornwall they just
might have an exchange that minds...it is a long way from the 20th century.

And there *are* good beers there.  Beware that while they don't have quite
the attitude of Quebec, they don't see themselves as particularly close to
England.   They have close ties to Brittany.   Back when the Angles, Saxons
& co invaded the Britons retired to the south-west and have been there ever
since.

Hy!

A simple question... what is the maximum number of applications that is
possible to install in the SysMgr? The reason I am asking this question is
that I have about 40 applications (I do not have with me my HPLX and I
cannot be more precise) in my SysMgr and when I try to add a new one with
the F2 key the palmtop beeps and refuses to add the application to the
SysMgr.

Any Idea?

You'll have to get hold of MOREEXM, a utility that is absolutely essential
for your palmtop. You can get it for free from the SUPER Page!

BTW the maximum number you can have under SysMgr would be 36 without
Moreexm. With this utility you can add more applications and link them to
hot keys but you can't add their icons to AppMgr (as for as I know).

Once you have moreexm, you must try Pocket Launcher!

This pops up a text menu of your exm and dos progs and macros and
can be configured easily in memo and is as far as i have taken
it, virtually unlimited in the number of programs one can add.

BTW, i have just got Quikmenu III working in my palmtop. It took
the marvelous sleepon by Stefan Peichl to make it worthwhile, as
Quikmenu reverses the screen every time it comes back.

Quikmenu is dos based, and allows about 895 apps to be added to
graphical pages with buttons and alternatively icons. One can add
menu files so you are not limited to 895, just load another file!

The best thing about Quikmenu is it will launch programs with
arguments and also do key stuffing. It has a macro language
built-in as well as a Phone database, dialer, calender,
calculator, screen saver, text viewer & editor, file manager, a
logging setup to tell you how many hours you spend in what app and
many other neat things. A really well written program.

When i launch the LX sysmanager from Quikmenu, i have 475k free
in the appmanager display.

As it is shareware, i may post it to Super after i get the setup
sorted, you need a string in the autoexec.bat specifying the
commspec and of course sleepon, and you need to modify the batch
file to run the program, but it is within reason, with the help
files and docs removed, it is about 750k, not too bad for the
functionality...

I have a file somewhere called ALARM.COM that beeps and reminds me of alarms

wake up the palmtop to do this.

It sounds like you have something that not only wakes up the palmtop but
restarts SysMgr and runs a particular program. How does this work??

Curious... (and sorry if I missed an earlier explanation)

I got it from SUPER and I think it you got it too since the executable is

I talked to the people at EXP (6 months ago) and was told that no W95

If anyone would like to begin a campaign to "bother" them into
production, the last address and phone number I had is:

EXP Computing Inc.
141 Eileen Way
Syosset, NY  11791
(516) 496-3703 (main)
(516) 496-7629 (support)

Good luck, I got the impression that the EXP people did not even create
the product, I believe that bought it from a 3rd party and are only
resellers.

Someplace along this thread, I think this might be relevant...
I have figured out a way to remove the "permanent" icons (and make
available the space).  If this sounds like something you want to do,
I'll round-up my instruction sheet and post it again.  You can always
replace the APPMGR.DAT file from a backup if you don't like the results.

Best shoping areas would be Truro and/or Penzance; or perhaps
Bodmin/St Austell depending on just what part of Cornwall you're
visiting.

Absolutely right about the great breweries; lots of what you call in
the States microbreweries (we just name them by the beer or the pub).
The Blue Anchor in Helston and the Bird of Paradise in Hayle are two
that I REALLY miss now I'm stuck up here in Hull so far away from
Cornwall (Blewitts in Hayle also sell the world's greatest pasties).
The Blue Anchor is fabulous if you like old pubs; last time I was
there their original skittle alley (WAY pre-dating bowling alleys)
was still usable.

You and your HP will have a great time!

Hi there!

Here in Singapore they are now selling a PCMCIA (type 2 card) called REX
with their software- TrueSync. With this software, you can sync your
desktop organizers, such as MS Schedule+, MS Outlook, Symantec ACT, Lotus
Organizer, ASCII, and so on- with a PC Card that can hold all your data
such as contact, appointments, alarms and much more. Since this card can
sync data with a Notebook and it fits into the slot of a HP 100/200LX, I
wonder if anyone out there with the knowledge can/working on it/are
interested in developing a Sync software for 200LX? I mean- it had been way
cool if 100/200LX could sync with this PCMCIA organizer!!!

For more information- check out: http://www.franklin.com/rex

JW

I think Carl Merkle of Shier Systems was soliciting for the same opinions
a few months back to see if there was a market for them to develop for.
You may want to drop them a note.

My understanding is that two signal lines are used for the phone
connection, which need to be swapped when connecting US RJ11 style
connectors to UK BT style connectors. I have seen two types of leads for =
US
to UK connectors available in the UK, one is an extension cord and provid=

a 1:1 connection, the other is an adaptor cord which swaps the necessary
signals - this is the lead you want. One end of the cord plugs into the
modem, the other plugs into the wall socket.

An alternative is an adaptor which wil take your existing lead, and simpl=

convert it to a UK style connector, but I am not sure if these perform th=
e
signal swap you require, sorry.

I am not sure that readily available is a fair assessment, most large tow=

will have a Tandy,  PC World, Byte store but Cornwall is a bit more off t=

beaten track so I suggest you try and get your adaptor at the airport whe=

you arrive. I know of a UK mail order outlet, so if you are in any one
place for a while, you could get one that way. Contact me directly if you=

want more info on this.

>Or should I be more diligent and get one before leaving this side of the=

Seems like the best idea if you can get one, really depends whether you
want to search around at home or when you get here.

>Another suggestion that I've read is to take a phone cord with plug on

This could be your backup solution,although you could end up with more
options than you want with 4 signal leads in each connector to mess with.=


Hope some of this helps

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

Hello,

I am the person that said would take over the pc keyboard project.  I would
like to know how much interest there is in this project.  What I envision
is a small black box with ps/2 connector and db9 connector.  The cable for
the hp200lx would connect to the PC would plug into the db9 and the
keyboard (blah, blah)

Power would possibly come from the db9 connect (hp) or from batteries or a
seperate power supply.

The application keys could be mapped to the function keys with an alt key
down, and the menu key could be the windows 95 menu key or some other key.

The tsr program would actually perform the keyboard mapping function.

Anyway, please let me know what you think.  This is in the design phase,
and I won't really get to build a prototype for a month or so.

I know you have been drifting towards a keyboard interface and I think
it's a good idea.  If you can stand me repeating myself, I think a
better project would be to write a software driver for the Keytronics IR
series of keyboards.  The project would require no additional hardware,
the keyboard has it's own power supply (4 AA cells) and the palmtop has
IR built-in.
I talked to a Keytronics tech and he said the keyboard needs no "return"
contact from the PC, that is, the keyboard "broadcasts" keystrokes,
battery status, and what-ever.
I am not a programmer.  My patience for programming was at it's limit
with the Basic in my old C64.  So I keep bringing this idea up in a hope
for someone to adopt it. :)

I send a similar query to the list almost a year ago, after having seen IR
keyboards at a computer show for around US$45.  One obstacle I thought of
was that the IR port is on the side, and if the IR port was facing the
keyboard then you wouldn't be able to read the screen, which would be
facing to your left.  I wonder if a small square of mirror would suffice.

Can you use the IR port and the com port at the same time?

Perhaps... But a more elegant solution (in my opinion) would be to make a small
adapter plate and use cheap fiber optic tubing to "conduct" the IR.

>Can you use the IR port and the com port at the same time?

No, the IR port and com1 share the same UART (unfortunately).

I don't know about the IR and serial at the same time.  I guess if you
write the program to use the Red Eye protocol side of the palmtop's IO
stuff, then the UART would be free to talk to the serial port.  As I
understand it, the UART, Redeye, and something else (failing memory) can
be switched to the IR sub-assembly to support what ever communications
might be going on.

As to the palmtop IR port being at right angles to the keyboard, I found
that almost anything short of charcoal will reflect enough IR for the
port to "see" the keyboard.  Also, the keyboard has two "power"
settings, one for the usual 3-4 feet of the desktop area (great battery
life) and one for long distance use, like walking around a classroom (50
feet or so, crappy battery life).

I must have missed an earlier post about this...is the purpose to use the
HP200 with
an external keyboard for cw operation? Or?
 I have TR-log contesting software in my HP200LX using the same standard
interface used for TR, NA and CT(2N2222 & 1K resistor). Just use the DB9 to
DB9 adapter that comes with the Connectivity Pack to connect the HP serial
cable to the rig keying interface.

You have the serial port on HP200LX to sync up with your PC. Get IntelliSync for

I'm having SYSMAN compatability problems with Goin' Postal, please
run it from plain DOS till I figure it out.  For some reason my test
site is not having any trouble, I need to find out why still.  It
appears to be working just fine from pure DOS.

I've assumed that the System Manager 'serial port interference' was
for COM1 only, should it affect the modem as well?  From DOS all looks
fine, but running under sysman it refuses to resolve hostnames, refuses
to connect to sites, and just plain acts like it isn't talking to the
other side worth beans.

Nope.  Stacker will give you the option of either converting free space
into a Stacker drive, or stacking everything (even stuff that was on the
flashcard before).  To get rid of Stacker, (WHY?!?!) it will give you
the option of decompressing everything too, although you can wipe your
drive if you want to.

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

I am new to this list, but not new to HP.  I bought a 200 2 years ago and
it was the greatest investment.  I made a stupid mistake and traded my HP
for a Zaurus.  Mainly because I liked the back light ... too many times I
was trying to look up a phone number while driving at night and couldn't
... Well like I said .. big BIG mistake.  In two months the Zaurus had a
broken LCD display.  I was no rougher on the Zaurus than the HP ... but the
HP is built to last.  That is why I just purchased a new one ... the 620
this time ... I only just got it today but I don't see any data base here
... Thought it would at least have access, maybe I haven't looked hard
enough ..=20

Does anyone else own one of these ?  If so, where are some good web pages
with the programs etc. ?

I got this mostly for my e-mail ... sometimes even a laptop is too big to
lug around with you ....

Steve,
Just downloaded Going Postal.. Hot Damn.  Looks great.

To get Postal going from sysman you must do the following:
Add the applicaton via the F3 key (edit), then on the path line use the =
more sign ( | ). This tells the sys that all remaining mem. is used.  If =
you want to allocate a certian amount of mem. then use the more sign =
then 256 or 512....
I have mine set up like this: Path c:\gp\gp.bat|

Good luck and GREAT WORK.
PS.  A check should be in the mail before the 30 days.

Hi there

I would like to try and use my HP200LX to pick up my internet email. Does
anyone know of an email client that runs on the HP and where I can get it?

Many thanks

That's one way, but it's not cool since since the 200LX has a PCMCIA slot.

Hi List,

Does anyone knows how to capture terminal scrren log while using Goin
Postal ? Using Goin Postal, I managed to go as far as established PPP
connection with packet driver recieved, suddenly it just jump out and
informed that it was terminated. The screen was too fast for me to read,
does anyone has a glue ?

Goin Postal seems to be a fine Email product, may I suggests that all
users to post their successful ISP script and configuration files to the
author or support@sdl.continet.com for inclusion into their setup file ?

If I can managed to get it working you can count on my contribution.

Thanks,

Subject:      Re: PC Keyboard project

Stacy,
I, for one, would very much like to see this Keyboard Project devolope into a reality as you described. I have intentionally held off on purchasing the Newton Keyboard because I think there must be a way to put to use all those unused PC keyboards that are destined for the garbage can. Call me a packrat if you want.
Additionally, I spend so much time away from my office, this is one way that I can refine and stay tuned up with my touch-typing skills, (or the lack thereof).
I may be wrong, but I tend to feel there are a lot of folks out there that would appreciate your efforts. Go for it.
Sincerely,
Ken Moore
-----------<snip>---------Stacy wrote-------<snip>-----
Hello,

I am the person that said would take over the pc keyboard project.  I would
like to know how much interest there is in this project.  What I envision
is a small black box with ps/2 connector and db9 connector.  The cable for
the hp200lx would connect to the PC would plug into the db9 and the
keyboard (blah, blah)

Power would possibly come from the db9 connect (hp) or from batteries or a
seperate power supply.

The application keys could be mapped to the function keys with an alt key
down, and the menu key could be the windows 95 menu key or some other key.

The tsr program would actually perform the keyboard mapping function.

Anyway, please let me know what you think.  This is in the design phase,
and I won't really get to build a prototype for a month or so.

I am still able to use it, (add appts, etc), but I cannot extract

garlic will run through successfully, but i still get the same error.

are there any better utilities which can strip out errors?

Anyone who ever wanted to write Hindi (devanagari script) on their HP-LX

(it does need the em87 utility as I discovered)

Once again I am totally amazed at the power and versatility of the

The update to 1.04beta is now on http://home.earthlink.net/~sdlsaginaw/

A few things have been cleaned up, there is now an icon, and the GP.TXT
has been updated to reflect proper setup under System Manager.

Thank you all for your feedback and patience.  I need to start a GP mailing
list of my own so I can take this topic off the HP list.  Anyone familiar
with running a mailing list on FreeBSD 2.1.7, or is there a public
machine one can run a list on?  I'm not too sure my dialup will handle a
mailing list very well.

I tried to use my Post/LX and WW/LX for the first time in about six months
today and had a problem. (I tried finding my manual and could not locate
it, and searched the archives of the list, so if this is covered
elsewhere...sorry!)

I can dial up with WWW/LX to the ISP (CServe) and it connects fine. I
wanted to use CSERVE to send mail from its SMTP server as I did for two
weeks last summer while in Israel.

I tried going into READER.EXE, and hit "Online (F5)" to send email and
nothing happens. No dialing, no dialtone, nothing. Post/LX appears to start
working, there is some screen activity, but no connection activity.

I changed the parameters in WWWSETUP so that READER, rather than HV, became
the default application to launch. I was able to dial in to CServe, conect,
launch READER and send a message (at least I think it was sent. I haven"t
received it yet in my mailbox to be sure).

Anyone have any ideas what I should be checking to make this work?

Also, if one dials in with WWWW/LX and sets either the browser or the
READER as the default, is there a way to switch to the other program
without having the connection broken and having to redial in.

Thanks

Alan

It's the latest Internet mail program for the 100/200LX.

>OK for 620 XL ?

Nope.  Actually, you're probably not going to find much for the 620LX here.
Nearly all of the discussion (probably over 99%) relates to the
95/100/200LXes;
since the 620 doesn't run DOS, it's not compatible with those.  If you have
access to Usenet, you'll probably find a lot more related stuff in
comp.sys.palmtops.hp.  It now primarily deals with HP's WinCE line.

This is only partially it, not only should you put a bar | after the
path, you should also put an inverted !, and possibly an inverted ? in
the comments field.  Figured I should clarify that here, in case
someone went off the message below and didn't check the updated doc file.

  I think i am the only Indian (as in from India) on this mailing list and
I never knew that CDAC was putting out its stuff for free.  Thank you very

One thing that has not been mentioned in this discussion is a service provider
-  I hope to be visiting the UK in about 6 weeks time and would like to know
what facilities exist for connecting to the net. I had planned to take my 200LX
but not intended to use it to access my mail as  I presumed that connecting to
phone lines  in hotels and B&B's would present a few problems, (also finding a
local service provider in each major city) howerever  judging by the amount of
discussion on this topic there are quite a few people who have sucessfully used
their palmtops  without too many tears -
I would welcome any advice on what I should do

Still struggling to figure out how to put the new programs I DL'd on my 620
LX but slowly getting the hang of it .... The main question I have right
now is about the voice recorder.  The volume on playback is very low and
scratchy.  Does this mean it is a factory defect ?  Or are there
adjustments ?  Even though I don't know why I would need this feature, for
$1000 I think it should work.  I hate to take it back to the store, I just
finished installing 3 new programs.

A relatively simple solution to the local ISP problem is to check if your ISP
offers global roaming.  My ISP does... Through a group know as GRIC.
(http://www.gric.com)

I know Netcom is a member of GRIC, as are quite a few local type ISPs.  Check
it out.  Usually an ISP will let you add roaming for a niminal charge.

Well, I received my 32 Meg Upgrade from Times2Tech on Friday, and I must say,
I am impressed.  The ability to run things like Agenda, Word 5.0, or the
American Heritage Electronic Dictionary directly from the super fast C: drive
changes the nature of the machine.

Using the speedtest batch file that has been discussed, my 6 meg LX took ~4
seconds to do the writes.  A SRAM card took about 5 sec.  This new machine
will consistently do it in 2.8!

I have had the AHED for quite a while, but could never quite make it
practical.  Even with 2x speed, it was pretty slow on a flash card -- not to
mention the time to switch flash cards.  Now, its a breeze.  Agenda is
similarly speeded up.  Quatropro 5.0 is another program that is much quicker.

I can recommend this modification without qualification to anyone who can
justify the price of the work.  For me, it is absolutely worth it.  I know
that you can get more megabites for the buck with flash cards, but the speed
here is really impressive.  Besides, I now have plenty of left over space on
my existing cards for back-ups, e-texts, and the like.  Since I have now
wished Stacker a fond farewell, I also speed up those cards quite a bit.

This may not do everything that my HP260LX post hoped for, but it is a major
step in the right direction.

As you know, I have no connection with Times2Tech, other than being an
extremely satisfied customer.

Cordially,

lynn m. cavendish

Well. I guess I didn't understand you fully.

But I dont know whether you want to use the 200LX as the primary PC. Actually,
we sync the 200LX with the PC right ??. IMO, 200LX and the REX are peers and so
this is not a real necessity. Maybe, this sync software can be used to exchange
info with a REX. But the REX owner should be willing to let you insert it into
the 200LX.

Subject:      Re: PC Keyboard project

  Stacy, glad to see someone is still considering the full keyboard option.

  Just one problem with your proposal...  You wrote:
  "The application keys could be mapped to the function keys with an alt key
down, and the menu key could be the windows 95 menu key or some other key..."

  If this approach was used, then:
  1.  How would one type an ALT-<function-key>?
  2.  How would one type an ALT-<application-key>?
  3.  How could this be used with older PC keyboards (without MENU keys)?

  I think the key mapping for the application keys may require a special
prefix keystroke rather than using the Fn keys with any of the normal
alt/shift/ctrl combinations since most of them are already used (both (shift
combo) with Fn and (shift combo) with application key) on the HP for various
expansion programs.

  Regards and good luck.
        ... JLS

  PS:  By all means, allow someone to use the Win95 Menu-key if it's there,
but include -some- way to simulate a menu keystroke on older keyboards too.

I do this using pocket launcher. It doesn't create an icon put launches
an exm that is a menu. The menu let's you run apps with specific files.
It's configured using an ascii file with examples. Pretty good proggy

I used to use ks but it requires a dos session. Sometimes I don't have
enuff mem to start dos session. Pocket launcher is a small exm and does
the keystrokes if you install exkey. It also works with moreexm.

Hi folks,
My apologies if this has come up recently and I've just missed it..... I
recently upgraded to a 200lx from the 100 and would like to activate the
global password as I often take notes on counselling appts and would
like to protect the info.
The problem lies in the fact that evidently the previous owner had
already setup a system password so that when I try to enter a new one,
it asks for the old one first.  Can anyone tell me where to find the
password file and its name to      the old one?
Thanks in advance!

In the program remkey, the blue application keys from the palmtop
are mapped to their equivalents on the pc keyboard, ie: filer is
Alt+1 on the typewriter key area, Alt+4 is the memo key etc...

create a:\ from the stacker propmt the message I received was that it can't create
a stacvol file. I only have about 3 megs free on my flashcard. Do you think it
won't create this file because the disk is not empty or do you think it's because
of something else?
Thanks

Can anyone on the list help me with my problem?  I'm using QFax
on a 2x 32MB 200LX.  I have it set up and working fine with a
Megahertz 9600 bps PCMCIA modem.  Recently I bought a used 14.4
kbps modem--a Megahertz XJ2144.  When I try to send a fax the
modem dials and connects fine.  It sets the speed at 14400 and
appears to send the fax okay (indicated by a slowly moving
cursor character).  QFax then sends me the message:

   PPM response not received.  Trying to resend PPM.

It repeats this twice and then hangs up without sending the fax.
I've looked at the documentation and learned that PPM means post
page message.  I can't find anything in the initialization string
that might correct this.  Does anyone have any ideas?

Does anyone know whether there exists a database (preferaby in .gdb or

the proper format for entering them?

And if so, where I could download it?

Your question started the hamster wheel to turning 'round in my mind.  I
opened the DOS prompt and typed format /? >foo.doc and then looked to
see what was in foo.doc with Memo.  Sure enough, a terse set of
instructions for format!  Now I'm not suggesting that a database of all
the commands would be useless, in fact I think such a database could be
built using a macro, one of the DOS to clipboard programs, and a little
"peeking" at the command.com file.  The command.com file would let you
"see" all the internal commands, and a list of the external commands
would be easy to get by looking in the d:\dos directory.  Other external
commands would have to be imported from a full DOS 5 disk set.
I'm going to play around with this, if it results in something useful,
I'll broadcast it to the list.

Go check out www.cknow.com for a neat, free, dos based
hypertext tutorial. (It runs fine on the palmtop) You can
configure it for b/w to get the best display.

Subject:      Removing fixed Sysman Apps
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi, have seen the questions about removing the built-in apps from sysman.
Don't know if the reply has been sent in full yet (only get the digest),
but I recently did this as follows.

Using a hex editor, change the 01 4 bytes before the start of the name
of the program to 00. This then allows the program to be deleted.

However, after doing this and trying to add more programs to Sysman,
I find that the lettering in the Add screen gets screwed up and I cannot add
any more anyway. So, I suspect the fundamental limit is not how many total
you can have in the basic Sysman menu, but how many you can add on top
of the built-in functions.

There are alternatives, such as MoreExm or DOS menu managers such as HDM
(both available from SUPER I believe).

P.S. For a quick response, email me directly, as I only receive the Digest of
this list.

I keep a text file with DOS commands up to DOS 6.0
I use List to view it. The file is around 270K.  I keep it zipped up until I need it.
Pkzip size is round 63K. If anyone wants it I'll send it to you.

World Travel 2.0 is now available for download
(www.palmtop.net/supernew.html).  If you haven't tried World Travel before,
here is the blurb from the SUPER page:

If you travel a lot, or if you just like maps, World Travel is the program
for you. World Travel presents a completely new view of the palmtop's
built-in database of 478 cities. You can perform graphical map operations
like plotting cities on a map, plotting great circle routes between cities,
and finding cities along a route. There is also a trip distance calculator
that allows you to compute travel distances. You can upgrade World Travel
with your own custom cities and maps. The new version includes a
sunrise/sunset calculator.

As the blurb indicates, the biggest addition is the sunrise/sunset
calculator (big thanks to Alfred Lee for this addition).  Other improvements
include a heading indicator, a better UI for moving the cursor, x/y and
lat/lon cursor indication, and a few bug fixes.

Enjoy!

Jim

I sure could be wrong...but I think the whole point of a global password
is (or should be) that it cannot be undone even by a person with a
detailed knowledge of the system. Of course anyone who designs such a
system may decide to create a 'secret' method (backdoor) that allows
them the bypass the security procedure. Otherwise... I thought the only
solution is to
1)      back all of the data that you would like to keep that is currently on
the HP200
2}      perform a complete/hard reset of the HP200, erasing all of its data
3)      then, upload the data files that were saved from the HP200 before the
reset unto the now 'clean' HP200

Before you try my suggestion please wait and see if someone else knows
how to de-code/find the existing password.

I know that there are some other Amiga users lurking out there.  Perhaps
someone can help me with my serial connections to my 200lx.

My 200lx is connected via serial cable (Thanks, Mark!) to my Amiga's serial
port.  I have them configured similarly so that I can successfully type
messages through the serial ports, which tells me that everything is connected
properly.  However, when I try do do a file transfer with ZMODEM, my Amiga
(using Term4.7) tells me that the transfer aborted, without anything having
been sent over the line.

What more do I need to do?

Thanks!

Why not just reach up and use the application keys on the 'LX?  Just
use the keyboard for text, etc.

  If this approach was used, then:
  1.  How would one type an ALT-<function-key>?
  2.  How would one type an ALT-<application-key>?
  3.  How could this be used with older PC keyboards (without
MENU keys)?

  I think the key mapping for the application keys may require
a special
prefix keystroke rather than using the Fn keys with any of the
normal
alt/shift/ctrl combinations since most of them are already used
(both (shift
combo) with Fn and (shift combo) with application key) on the
HP for various
expansion programs.

  Regards and good luck.

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

Hi Tony,

Stacker used the remaining space to create your stacked drive, that
space ( 6MB are so ) will become available as soon as you mount the=
 drive.

You mount the drive by adding
device=3Dc:\stacker\stacker.com a:\stacvol.dsk to your config.sys
and re-boot.

Have you tried using:

HPCRACK (8 K) added 12/02/97
Version 1.0 by Jan Brands

HPCRACK is a password recovery utility for HP 200LX files. It will find=
 the
password for Database, Note, Phonebook Appointment and World Time files.=
 This
program was written to show that the file password protection offered=
 by the
200LX is not sufficient to protect highly sensitive data. The C source=
 code is
included so that interested parties might learn more about the file=
 protection
algorithm and possibly write something that will improve it. This utility=
 is
not meant to be used for malicious purposes.
Use it at your own risk and please send comments to the author. Freeware.=

If the previous pw is set at the file level then how about just erasing=
 that
file?  It is the previous owner's data and you shouldn't miss it when i=
t is
gone.  Once it is gone you should be able to create your own data file =
and use
your own pw.

Also, take a look at HPCRACK on the SUPER site.  It claims it can crack=
 the
(supposedly weak) password protection that HP used on the built in apps=
.

okay. I understand that. But what if I want to stack my entire 40 meg carrd?
DO I have to delete all the files that are on it first?

Mike,

The simplest way to remove the global passowrd, and any other files from the PO, is to take all the
batteries out of the unit, including the backup battery.

This will erase all files in C: drive.

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

I'm not an Amiga user... yet, but I have had problems with Zmodem
transfers also.  It could be a processor overhead problem ,with the
200lx.  Try reducing the data rate and see if Zmodem transfers get more
stable.  I think this because my x2/8meg palmtop seems to be able to
transfer files faster (Zmodem) than my "old stand-by" 200lx.  In the end
I gave up on Zmodem and use Xmodem most of the time.

Bob , and list

I've got an extra Motorola Cellect pocket modem.
It hasn't been opened (New Old Stock)
14.4 data and fax and runs on 9v or ac adapter

I would take $ 125.00 plus shipping for it - not really too
interested in letting it go as I had a very hard time finding them
and wanted a spare.

It is neat to have a small modem to take with you - these work well
and are well made.

On the other hand - if you can use the modem in the same place you
could get by a lot cheaper by using a regular external modem.

If you decide you want more info let me know.

-Mike

What ever you do, do not try charging rechargeable alkaline cells using
the palmtop's charging circuit!

The charger that recharges the rechargeable alkaline cells uses a
totally different approach than that used for Ni-cads or Nickel-metal
cells.  If you attach a scope to one of the alkaline chargers, you will
see that it pulses the battery both positive and negative, with a very
short duty cycle.  In the time between the pulses the charger tests the
cell to determine if further pulsing is necessary.

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

I have just removed Stopwatch, Datacomm, and Lotus 123 from my
APPMGR.DAT file.
Here is how I did it.

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

If you could follow my instructions (more likely problems in my typing
style) you should now be able to remove any icon / application from the
desktop.

Please remember to do a backup of the APPMGR.DAT file, and it wouldn't
hurt to back-up the entire palmtop as well.

Good luck!

Phil

Hi great software. I've using version 1.0 with great enthusiasm. In the
excitement of copying the new version, I forget to save a way to register.
Can you send me the name of the file I have to make in order to get it to
work? Thanks much.

Thanks to the people that replied to my request for help a couple of weeks
ago and to the posting by David Cripps I've been able to get a little
closer to connecting my 200  to the LAN with a silicom ethernet card.  I've
run into another wall and maybe someone can help get past this one.

When loading speodi.com I get the following messages:
****************************************************************************


Socket Services software is detected
PCMCIA controller error CODE: 2 , USS error code: 0 Int 5, Port 300

Board 1, Frame ETHERNET_802.3 LSB Mode

SPEODI-DOS-6: The adapter did not initialize.  SPEODI did not load.
****************************************************************************


Of course nothing loads after this point.  The last line makes me wonder
about running SETVER but no one else has mentioned needing that.  Some
things are working because I can see a link light at the local hub and it
identifies that I am running at 10Mb.  Can anyone aim me in the right
direction to get my network connection working correctly?
Thanks,

Are you running SEHP before SPEODI?  (And of course LSL before SPEODI, but
after SEHP.)

Do you have NOENABLE in the "Link Driver" section of your NET.CFG?

Do you have a single-speed LX?

If the answer to all of the above is YES, you shouldn't be getting that
error.

I am into the FOREX market, and seeing that I use the Universal Currency Converter for
the 200LX, I was wondering if the Macro addon for it can be modified to do this.

Get all daily updates and place them into a seperate wk1 file.
Get a program to process the data to show trends, in graph format and possibly addon.

This is something I would pay for, but I am not certain about who can do this, if the
Stockchart programmer would like to do this, I would be glad to support it.

Hope someone can give some light on this,
... Why do I use OS/2 ... I like having a choice !!

Hi Quinton,

Yep, that's the one - the web site shows 9.1m, whatever that version is.

Once again, thanks, Quinton.

Best regards,

Saw a new Gateway 14.4 modem (model PC14.4SRXJ) which is an XJack by
Megahertz.  It was advertised as an XJack rather than a Gateway.  Does
anyone have any groups on the suitability of this modem with the
HP200/8meg?
As always,
Thanks very much!

Thanks to David Sargent (One of the ones that replied to me originally as
well), I am able to connect to my Novell server.  I had everything
right...almost.  I forgot to indent the noenable command in my net.cfg
file.  All works well and now I can use the 200 as a diagnostic tool on my
LAN.  I might even get that packet sniffer on SUPER going if all is well.

Several people emailed and asked where I got the Silicom card.  It came
from A Plus Computing  at  800-878-1354.  Cost was $117 plus shipping about
a month ago.  I found them by calling Silicom US and asking them for a
vendor that stocked the SPE/TP.  They were very nice and helpful (and I
think the price was right too).  They just don't know anything about the
200lx.
Thanks again to all for their support,
bob

Subject:      32 MB RAM and double speed - wow!

Well I now am in heaven.  Got my double speed and 32 MB ram combo by Mark
Baggette.  The only thing to say about it is wow! :-¨

The extra real-estate is wonderful, but I could have gotten that from a
larger flashcard.  The most impressive thing to me is the speed.  The
combination of storing and running your software from the C: drive
(essentially a super fast ram drive) and the double speed crystal has to
be seen to be believed.  Where I used to wait patiently, now things just
zoom up.  Database searches (and I have some large ones) happen in a
flash.

My advice, get one as soon as you can afford it.  It is the most useful
addition to you HP LX you can make and Mack is the person for it, both for
know-how (his drivers) and great service.  Besides he really is a nice guy
<g>.

Now, one of the advantages of the ram upgrade is the freeing up the
PC-card slot for a modem or whatever, but even though I no longer needed
my ACE double flash-Plus card for storage, I wanted to see if I could use
it as a stacked card for an additional 20MB dis space.  Using it unstacked
was not more complicated than simply putting the card in the slot, but
that way the compressed portions of the card were not visible or
accessible.  If you booted from the card, they were visible but the 32 MB
drivers were not loaded and the 32 MB ram was not available.  I wanted to
see the stacked portion of the card and the 32 ram.  That took a little
doing in getting both sets of drivers on the "proper" config.sys files
(the config.sys on the unmounted portion of the card).  I will soon write
up the specific steps on my HP website so other can have an easier job of
it.

One thing that stumped me for a while was another stupid error I made.
After copying my backed up files to my huge C: drive, I got quite
concerned when I found that double clicking from within FILER on many of
the executable files listed on my c: drive produced an ominous "file does
not exist" error message.  Oh-oh!  Yet these files would run fine from
DOS.  Turned out I forgot about modifying my filer.ini file which directed
these executables to my old PNS200 subdirectory which was located on the
stacked portion of my old A: card drive.  Editing that filer.ini file
solved that problem.

Thanks Mack.  Great job.

Jeff

Subject:      Accurite DoubleSlot for sale

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

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

I have just found a friend that has a store full of Old Software.
A lot of it would work on a DOS computer like the HP.
We even found some DOS 4.1 and 5.0 original manuals and Disks.
We are wondering if it would be of value to anyone in this group.
If you have a shopping list give me a shout and what it may be worth
to you.   It will take a lot of work on our part to surch for it and
find what you want..=20
Keep in mind shipping costs for the box and time it will take to hunt
it up when you tell us what it is worth to you...

This may very well be my last post to this group.  I have (had) a 200lx 6meg
(thanks, Julie) with MegaHertz2144 (thanks, Ralph) and 16meg Flashcard
(thanks, Mark).  My serial cable just arrived yesterday (thanks, other Mark)
and I had been successfully transferring files recommended through this
mailing list from my Amiga to the 200lx (thanks, Amiganauts).

Well, I was examining a patient today (a perfectly normal 2-week old baby boy)
who saw fit to pee all over me.  As I was looking into his ears and not at his
aim, I didn't notice that he was urinating until I began to feel wet.  He had
successfully urinated into my coat pocket, soaking my 200lx/flashcard.  I
tried to dry it off, but when I turned it on, the speaker started to emit a
high-pitched whine.  I took out the main batteries, but the whine only became
softer and did not stop until I took out the backup battery (so long, C:
drive!).  Urine is full of electrolytes and is a great (relatively speaking)
conductor.  After blowdrying the unit out and replacing the batteries, I get
the same whine and no screen.

No, I haven't backed anything up (the cable just arrived last night).  I lost
my phone directory, inpatient and outpatient databases, schedules, Harriet
Lane formulary (typed-in by hand), medical calculator, and medical databases
compiled from a variety of sources.

Sigh.

Any suggestions?  I live in the Los Angeles area, if anyone can suggest a
repair shop.  I'm not sure if it is possible/worth it to try to salvage this
little unit
(which I love).

Now I'm even more depressed.

Sincerely yours,
   Terry Chun, MD
