The plan seems to be licensing the Quicken name to 3rd party companies to
develop Pocket Quicken, as Landware has done for PalmOS:

Thanx to all who reply to me.
The answer was the Kodak 64Mg pc card should work.

Man, wish I had more time to do these fun ones <G>.  This isn't a hard
one, I can point you at where to go for this one.  Maybe can find
someone's existing code etc.  PICList would be a good place to join and
ask for help on this - I can program a PIC or Atmel part for you, also
have a local engineer friend who's looking for work and could do this in
a hurry.

It'd be good to know what your power source for this is - AC power?
Battery pack?  Right off the LX?

What I'd suggest are either just straight thermistors, or I2C
thermometer sensor IC's, several manufacturers make them, and a Pic chip
to run your choice of these.  You might have to run them off a battery,
might be able to run them off the HP200LX's serial port - I'd have to
look more, it's late & I'm tired.  You can connect up to 8 National
LM75's to one I2C bus, for example, and a $10 PIC16F84 chip can run
about 4 I2C busses, i.e. 36 thermometers.  Or could use a Scenix or
Atmel or other microcontroller.

Maxim has the MAX6575 and 6576 IIRC?  1-wire and duty cycle outputs, not
RS-232 though, so a Pic etc. would again be necessary.

Oh, also the Dallas 1-wire interface is good, perhaps pricey though,
maybe not.  They have a weather station at
http://www.ibutton.com/weather/index.html, $79 for an eval kit, that
should just plug into your serial cable off the 200LX and WORK, except
you get to port ftp://ftp.dalsemi.com/pub/auto_id/public/mlpb103.zip to
the LX - do-able, probably.

The Dallas SMBus parts could work (off a Pic.)

Also the DS1921 "thermocron" may do you or may not.

Bug me off-list if you want me to look more - it's late & I'm going to
bed =)

QB45 runs great on the Palmtop. I wrote a huge program using it.
I bought Powerbasic at the end of my programming, and didn't really have
a chance to use it. I installed it, and it ran, but I locked it up while
debugging. That's the extent of my experience with Powerbasic. If you
want to try it before you buy it, check out www.powerbasic.com.

BTW I just checked ebay. There is no quickbasic currently, but that
could change at
any time. A copy sold recently for... $42.00 on Jan 26, 2000.

Visual Basic for Dos also runs great on the palmtop. You would probably
want a pointing device though, unless all you want VB/Dos for is the
menu builder.

While the thought of a 56K modem is interesting, I thought

the 200 really made the increased transfer speed superfluous.
Is this true on the DS?  How much difference can 56K really

I tried again with a PCMCIA 56K modem which I did loan for testing. My
experience: the current which is drawn by the 56K modem is higher than
by a 33.6K modem

As reportet a few days ago, I could achieve reproduceable, connected to
the following ISPs COMPUSERVE, ATTGLOBAL.NET and T-ONLINE.DE

   38000 and 40000 DTE speed

on a hp200lx 96MB, DS.

Hm - yes, it probably is possible. You can of course run CHKDSK /F in a
batch file, but if CHKDSK finds errors, I think yiu have to press a
key, depending on if you wish CHKDSK to delete the wrong data or save
it. But I'm not sure here.
You could use SCANDISK instead of CHKDSK. That's fully automatic, if
you give the right parameters (/auto /all or similar - read docs!).

No problem ;-)
I have 10 WAs (WA=wark area), and my SC swap file on my CF card (only
have 6 MB of internal memory, so I use the card) takes 4.2 MB.
WA1: SysMgr
WA2: LXTeX
WA3: WWW/LX with Post/LX
WA4: Dicty (German-English dictionary)
WA5: LXTeL (Stefan's Least Cost Router for telephone calls)
WA6: Palmtop Circuit (circuit layout and analysis program)
WA7: Volkov Commander
WA8: Derive
WA9: Plain DOS (used for various purposes, e.g. programming)
WA10: Plain DOS (used for various purposes, e.g. trying out new or
self-written programs)

Down to the prompt.
If you kill he program in a WA, really only the program is killed and
you get the DOS prompt.
One disadvantage: Also TSRs are killed which were loaded in only this
WA.

...sounds a little bit complicated. If you lose the overview about
what's open or what's swapped out by MaxDOS, you could run into
trouble. But if it works for you, and if it fitsall your needs, you
don't need SC and can spare a lot of money.

:-) But one that doesn't provide many Work Areas.

That's one great advantage of SC. No matter what WA is open and if the
Palmtop is switched in, an appointment or other alarm will come up in
every case.
You even can choose if SC shall switch to the old WA after the alarm
(that comes up in the SysMgr WA), or if it shall stay in the SysMgr WA
after the alarm.

DO these work the same as pcmcia as far as the computer is concerned?

I looked through all the early Borland C compilers that I have and
the only one that offers this is BC++ 2.0.  This is also the last
borland compiler that runs on the palmtop.  However, it's a little
slow on the palmtop.  Not impossibly slow but slower than I like.

BCINST lets you enter whatever segment alignment you choose.  The
default is 512.  The IDE also allows this option.

TC++ 1.0, which runs faster on the palmtop, doesn't offer this
option.

I remember that the HP development kit was designed for Microsoft C
6.0, which uses link 5.1.  The default segment alignment is
paragraph alignment for this linker.  I have used the Microsoft
linker with Borland compilers and the tlink with Microsoft compilers
and never had a problem as long as the linker wasn't much older than
the compiler.

My suggestion would be to get a copy of MSC 6.0 and use the startup
files and other files provided by HP for exm development.

I just added in the S37=29 to my CHAT script like you mentioned in your docs.
It seemed to work great. My training coming through, I guess. You give me a

Sorry I did not reply earlier, but I am cleaning up
backlogs...

Yes, there is a way. I do it quite a bit in my Orders
database to prepare invoices etc.

I have clips in the database which contain the fields to be
replaced. Some of the clips are fairly long letters.

Then I mark the records in the database, and select the
clip I need, and presto! the stuff is created and placed
into the clipboard. Open Memo and paste.

There is a limitation of the clipboard, so for example I
cannot generate huge sets. However, you can by pass this by
creating a report. Menu, Print, then select say ALL
RECORDS, in the next box tab to Custom and select the clip
you want, then print to a file. In this way I could print a
report of all orders which matched some criterion, for
example, by selecting a subset of the database which
matched the creterion I needed, then print the report to a
file. The file would then contain the same clip over and
over again, but the merged values were taken from the
records and placed in the location where you defined the
field in the clip.

Works very well, albeit slow. In some cases I took the
database to the desktop and ran the whole thing there to
get some decent speed.

The merge works much like in Word or WP, but the document
is only ASCII, because you have to type it into the CLIP
definition. I have not tried to grab a fancy document with
formatting and pasting into the clip definition.

Hope this helps.

By pre-defined, do you mean they cannot be  modified on the
desktop?  I already knew the REX 3 is read-only.   Is that
what you meant?

There is something akin to subsets, but they are
pre-defined.  And there seems to be a limit of 5 maximum of
them.  By pre-defined, I mean you have to chose ahead of
time which 5 subsets you want loaded into the REX - and I
*think* that the all-inclusive subset called ALL counts
against your total of 5.  This may or may no meet your
needs.

No - perhaps that was a bad choice of words.  Obviously, the
REX is read-only, so anything loaded in is pre-defined.  Yes,
the subsets can be defined on the desktop.  While there are
five different subsets in the data file definition, I think
one of them is reserved for the ALL subset - so you really
only get four distinct ones.  Also, it appears that a single
entry can only belong in one subset.  For example, if your
Doctor was also in your Square Dancing class, you couldn't
have his entry defined as DOCTORS and SQUAREDANCING subsets.
You'd have to pick one or the other.

I don't know for sure that the ALL subset has to be there.
I'll probably try some experiments to see what happens when
you load five true subsets, and no ALL.

Hope this clarifies things...sorry for the confusion.

-Chris

Hi Folks,

 My first post to this list. A former Compuserve addict <g>.
Due to unfortunate circumstances (following someone's instructions) I
removed all batteries and did a hard reboot to my 200LX and didn't have a
proper backup to bring my system up to where it was.
My biggest problem now is that I can't get SC to load.
I have an 8M 200LX and here is my current SC Resource Pool:
 Expanded RAM 1600K
 Extended RAM    0K
 Disk         1488K

 When I boot SC starts initializing 3 of 4 work areas and then stops,
giving the following clues:
 Work area number 12 - 112K
a:\util\sc >a:\util\sc\sc_menu a:\util\sc\carousel.opt
Cannot execute a:\util\sc\sc_menu.exe
Work area num 12 - 112K
a:\util\sc>

 Any help would be appreciated.

  - Eric

As I PROMISE I will tell you how to check your wire serial port
take a paper clip bend it into a loop a 'U' shape so you have two
ends. facing your 9 pin serial plug top row has 5 holes botten has 4
take one end of your paper clip stick it into the second port hole
the other end of the paper clip into third port hold.counting
port hold one (1)starting from the right side end up on the far left
as port hold number (5) the results of the test is a "ctl line"
this tells you that input and output is working.

hi all (i'm back) :)

many countries in Europe charge import dutiy on electronic goods from
overseas, sometimes up to 30%

if we (Europeans) have a palmtop sent by them (Americans), and feel that
paying this tax is unfair, we can ask them to put on the package as value no
more than $50 for an "electronic organiser" and have it sent as a gift
(un-solicited)

here in France gifts are not taxed (anyone had a different experience?)

(and yes, i have my 200lx back)

i have the 6 files open for viewing using moreexm.ini and quickview in 6

i don't think SC will let me run 6 memos or let me cut-copy-paste between

any solution?

I think it will make a big difference, particularly on a DS.  My single speed gets 31200 reported connect speed with my Psion Dacom (Toshiba branded) V.34 33.6 modem - it goes very nicely thank you.   I think I would hesitate to try the 56k modem unless I went to a DS.    When I use the modem with the GSM phone and it goes now to 9600, then it gets painful if I have not cleared up the inbox on the POP server.   In europe where you pay for even local calls to the ISP the reduced connect time of a fast modem is very useful.   If I'm using the LX to see what mail I've got I'm usually on the move and want to check the mail quickly.

$99 seems very good for a 56k modem!

Hi!
I also have 95LX - aint it cool?
You must check BIOS in your IBM and find position about COM ports - if
you look good you will find that one of them you can set into infrared
mode.
Turn on DATACOM on 95LX and then:
menu<settings><config><port><interface>3(infrared)
If you still have problems - write to me.

Hello,

My experience in Spain is that spanish customs don't care items sent by
Mail but if they come by UPS, DHL.. or other courier, they can charge up to
80% (they recently did in a CF card I bought in USA).

Saludos.

I thought that a recent (last couple of years) agreement eliminated all
tariffs on computer goods. That said, VAT (sales tax) is still payable.

That's fine till it gets lost and you  claim on the insurance, you will
only get the $50 declared value.

He, he. My wife has ordered a bunch of things form USA to be shipped to
France. Sometimes we pay VAT, sometimes duty, sometimes both and
sometimes nothing at all!! I asked at the local customs office why and
got the reply that "it depends on the agent doing the paperwork", so
much for rule of law!

That's great, welcome back to the club.

Hi all, and sorry for the somewhat off-topicality.  I have
determined for sometime  that a good machine to go along
with my HPLX would be a Libretto 50CT.  The problem is the
prices are beyond my reach at this time.  I was hoping to
find something decent for about $200-$300, but they are
going on Ebay for between $560 -$1000.  Any tips on sales
somewhere?

Thanks.

I have a 10 meg type 2 card and several different sizes of compact
flash with adapaters.  All these are Sandisk.  The only difference
I've ever noticed is their size.  The compact flash cards all have
more capacity.

The little compact flash card fits into the adapter very nicely and
stays put until you want to remove it.  Then it's easily removed.
They've designed the adapters well.

I went to Sandisk's site and checked the specs before I bought my
first compact flash and the specs were the same and there were
several mentions of that fact on their site.

<<how do i use the 95lx infrared port w/ an ibm thinkpad?

i just cant figure it out>>

It's been a while since I've done this but I usedKermit in
Hyperterminal Private Edition on the Thinkpad and I used datacom on
the 95 to put it in Kermit server mode.  Of course I made sure the
params were the same on both ends. (baud, stop bits, parity,etc).

Hyperterminal Private Edition is a free upgrade to the Hyperterminal
that comes with windows.  The one with windows has a bug in Kermit
and won't work.  Just download HPE from www.hilgraeve.com and
install it.  You'll have to search for it among their ads for their
commercial product but it's not too hard to find.

I don't remember what I told Hyperterminal about what com port the
infra red was, but I found something in the manual or the setup that
made that obvious.  The settings in datacom on the 95lx let you
select the I/R port.

I've done this 2 or 3 times with a couple of different Thinkpads and
it's worked perfectly the first time each time.

I've NEVER had it work this way.

CTL-ALT-DEL reboots my whole machine -- I'd be interested in trying to boot
just one session some time.  Is there a setting I should enable?

Also, what is the best way or what are the best ways to enable Buddy in
one, two specific or all sessions and have some control over where it works
and where it doesn't work?

Is there a way to have Buddy act one way in one session and another way in
one of the other sessions while accurately tracking battery use the whole
while?

TIA,

The freeware program PalEdit (PE) will let you have multiple files open =
at
once.  It is easy to copy and paste between them.  You can download it at
www.dasoft.com and try it out.

I too found that items sent via  a snail mail system get a more favorable
treatment than via FedEx or DHL and the likes...But you cannot track the
shipment, and it may get lost.
But you should always - if you can or dare-  have the shipment labeled as
second hand equipment: in principle, there can be no Value Added Tax on
this. True,  very much depends on the custom's agent interpretation....

The Tiny Editor T from SUPER allows many text files open at the same
time. You can jump between them with F10, and cut and paste between
them very easily (whole lines only).

I still use IBM's Personal Editor (PE2) on my 200Lx. It has the
advantage of being < 74k, and although it is old (My copy is dated
August 1985) I still use it as my regular editor on all my systems
whether DOS or Windows.

PE will let you have lots of files `open' at the same time, all
within one execution of PE (one of the main reasons I never bother
to use my copy of SC)...

You need to run SCCONFIG and set it up to make SC's menu active.  There =
is an
option to have CTL-ALT-DEL reboot only one SC session.  I believe SC =
calls it
"kill a workarea"

Make seperate buddy.env files each with seperate settings.  When you run =
Buddy,
you can tell it which buddy.env file to use from the command line.  =
Something
like:

c:\BUDDY\BUDDY.COM c:\BUDDY\BUDDY.ENV
vs
c:\BUDDY\BUDDY.COM c:\_DAT\BUDDY.ENV

Once when my HP200LX returned from a warranty repair from
Thaddeus Spanish customs charged VAT on the freight cost,
another time it came through free (both sent by mail). This
time I have asked Rundel/Germany if they do warranty repairs
for Thaddeus, it would be much less hassle and insecurity.
They have not answered yet.

Yes here in Norway this is a "problem". I have to pay 23 % tax and also
custom fee dependent on what goods that are imported. The only thing
that can be imported without the custom fee is a nuclear reactor..:-))

This is what I have told the individual which is going to send me a
backup unit from the US soon. I have also used this "tactic" with md
players from Hong Kong and cf card from US.

> here in France gifts are not taxed (anyone had a different experience?)

We have a upper limit on gifts. I think it has to be below 500,-. But
you(they) can insure the package for the "full" amount and set the
customs value to be below 500,- Nok.

It is usually not a problem to use this tactic when receving things from
private persons, but from online stores it is another story. A Rex-3
for $32 would be about $72 delivered here in Narvik..

When Paypal is launched here in Norway maybe one of you guys on the
list could buy me one and send it in a envelope if I still want one..

It is the one that you sent away for upgrade or is it not?

I have created a font called i812, which is an improvement over my original
font i810 (Ian's 8x8/10x11, has nothing to do with the horrible Intel
810 chipset of ultimate doom and/or death) that I believe may have had
limited circulation for a while.  (i.e. a friend gave it to a friend.  ;-)

Anyone interested in it is free to spam the list for a few days asking for
it, or waiting until I post it (or gently reminding me with 3005 emails that
I've forgotten *grins*).  I can't really decide how legible it is in dim
light, but it has the advantage of looking good (somewhat like m.fnt in
Linux) and has italic numbers and good line-drawing characters.

You should really investigate into PalEdit by Andreas Garzotto. It lets
you scroll between open files with F7. You can implement filter macro's
and fast search/find functions. I stopped using Memo completely.

Availlable on Super and on www.dasoft.com.

Yes: Use Andreas' PE.EXE! That's the perfect solution, I think!
It lets you open as much files as you want (or is there a limit - I
don't know) and you can cut/copy/paste etc. between them.
With F7 you can switch from file to file, and there's even a shortcut
that shows you a menu of open files where you can choose to which one
you want to jump next.

Tomorrow is the last day for the Auction of my HPLX backup with
modem, flash card, conn kit, cable, ac adapter, book, manual, etc.
Because I made an error in posting it to ebay, the price is still
reasonable. You have to do a search for 200 lx (with a space) to
find it. (That was my mistake) You can also go directly to ebay item
248317062. If you can still use a backup, check it out.

There is a DOS program called QEdit that will allow you to open multiple
files and switch back and forth including cut and paste between files. It is
my favorite text editor, I even use it on window based systems. The newer
version has a spell checker included with the package.

Hi Bob,

The Wordperfect text editor ED.EXE supports editing
up to ten files at one time.  The last two accessed
are easily swapped by the F8 key.  Any file can be
swapped to by "Home" and a number, 1 for the first,
0 for the tenth.  And it does remember your position.
A URL for getting it by FTP (I think) was posted here
some time last year.  It uses many of the same editing
keys as WP5.1.  An older version was called PE.EXE
(Program Editor) if that shows up in a search instead
of ED.EXE.  Not an .exm, but a very good multi-purpose
editor.

No setting.
To boot _one_ work area, you have to call SC's menu by pressing the
hotkey (the default is CTRL-. (ctrl-dot). This menu lets you choose to
kill a WA.

I don't uuse buddy, so I din't know for sure, but usually it works this
way:

If oyu want a TSR to be available in all sessions you have to load it
_before_ SC.
If you want to use a TSR only in specific sessions you have to include
it in the startup bat file for these session(s).
But note that there may  be problems with TSRs loaded before SC which
are activated or controlled by hotkeys. If one hotkey of such a TSR is
the same as a hotkey of SC, SC is called by that hotkey!

A very good question.  If you delete transactions or
accounts, they are merely marked as deleted and left
untouched in the .pdt file.  There does not seem to
be any pack function that will flush all deleted
pieces out of the file.

The solution I have come up with is to export all
transactions, accounts, categories and groups to
.qif files, then create a new .pdt file and import
everything back into the new file.  This should not
change the balances, as you can set them by manually
creating them, rather than using the export/import
procedure.  Note: the import process is very slow.
Depending on the trx count, you may wish to do it
on a desktop.

As a matter of routine, I use a
slightly different tack on a monthly basis, capturing
all transactions on my lx, exporting each account to
a .qif file, downloading those files to my desktop,
importing to QWin (I am using version 1 of Q for Windows).
I can either import into a brand new account, or use
an existing account and import only new transactions.
Generally I use the former.  There are always categories
I have omitted on the desktop but QW warns me.  All of
this effort pays off because I get the reporting
functionality of QW and the convenience of PocketQ.

I have two 2xspeed 32MB LX's one is a 1MB and the other a 2MB Unit. 1 unit
is in pristeen condition and the other has cosmetic glue damage from a
self-repaired hinge crack. I'm curious to know what these units would go
for. I have not seen a 32MB unit for sale on Ebay. I know that prolink and
co. have driven the price over $300 for a 2MB unit. Has anyone seen a 32MB
unit go for sale on ebay yet? How much did it go for? They should have a
feature that let's you look at historical auction listings. I may consider
selling my units as I've recently started using a Wince palm device and have
found it pretty useful.

Go to www.honesty.com and use their Price Finder to see if it will come =

  I'm planning on buying my first 200LX in the next couple weeks, after
looking over ebay for a while, I've decided I want to get a refurbished 5 MB
DoubleSpeed 200LX for $358.50 from Thaddeus.

  I read the 200LX FAQ on palmtop.net, and it speaks of a buzz the screen
makes on a double speed unit, I was wondering if anyone has experienced this,
and if so how annoying is it?  It's not too high pitched is it?

  Is there any other problems I need to worry about that would stem from
either the doubled speed or memory upgrade in the way of physical
inconveniences or software incompatibilities?

This sight makes you register with them only to do completed Ebay searches.
It's probably  a sight that collects email addresses for spam.

You can use qedit (now known as TSE jr.) and available in a trial
version with a few nag screens from www.semware.com.  You can have 6
documents open in the same editor and navigate between them as easy
as you please.  You can also have 6 windows and see all documents at
once but this might be cumbersome.  Either way, cutting and pasting
between them is trivial.

This test "exercises" the screen in all different display modes and resolutions.
Your eyes are necessary to verify that nothing is obviously missing or
mis-displayed.

I've thought about this, but I don't think you can save the test results.

Pressing EscOn seems to re-boot you straight into the test, which loads
straight from ROM. I think you are not running even DOS at this point, so DOS
re-direction wouldn't work, let alone running a screen capture program like
Grabber.

The best I can suggest is that you ask the vendor if they would send you a
photograph the screen displaying the results. :-)

Nope, no spam. I have been using them for over a year with no increase in
spam levels. It was just a suggestion for you.

Unfortunately, we don't have any used units in stock. You can get on the

I already have a section in the updated FAQ about Quicken issues.  If
anybody has any info, let me know and I'll add that too.

I run Quicken 8 on the palmtop because it allows much better searching
than Pocket Quicken, and the reports and graphs that can be done right on
the palmtop are incredible.  It pulled up my salaried income for 1999 in
under a minute so could estimate my taxes.  Pocket Quicken starts a lot
faster, and takes up a lot less space on the palmtop, but the additional
power of Quicken 7 or 8 is just astounding.  I highly recommend it for
anybody who can spare the space and speed.

Could you help me off-list with reports?  I seem to remember that there
were quite limited in DOS v7 ... maybe I should obtain DOS v8 such as
you have.  Does it handle the TRIP-field - e.g., allow you to make a
report of all expenses/income from a particular TRIP?

Thanks,

I have a double speed that I upgraded myself, and I never heard the screen

My 32Meg DS palmtop does this sometimes.  I notice it mainly when I have =

Subject:      Hp200Lx vs Handspring Visor
MIME-Version: 1.0

Although an avid 200LX user, I was intrigued by the sight of a
Handspring Visor that a work colleague showed me yesterday. It's getting
excellent reviews as a Palm clone ++. It has a free slot for future
improvements such as GPS, voice notes, MP3 players, pager etc.etc. It's
like a "future - proof" palm. Was developed/commercialised by the
inventor of the Palm apparently. Demand is such that they can't fullfill
orders.

Price is excellent and much lower than the Palm equivalent. the DeLuxe
8Mb version is $249.

As a power Todo user on the 200LX (I've customised a master todo in
database by category heading with a macro to pull items over to today's
todo) I was impressed by the "to do" function on the Visor. You could
have multiple todo list according to category. I liked that!

But with the Palm and Visor, I see major deficiencies:-

No keyboard (although perhaps users find tapping the on - screen
keyboard with the pen OK, don't know)

No spreadsheet

(Obviously), no ability to run DOS programmes.

I run Info Select for DOS on my 200LX and wouldn't be without it! But, I
notice on www.miclog.com that Micro Logic has a version of Info Select
for the Palm out now.

Don't think I'll be swayed to change just now but I liked the unit.

Any comments from LX users who've switched to Palms or Visors and come
back or stayed?

One bad feature - the backlight was awful.

Finally, full marks to Curtis Cameron for his Outlook convertor. It'll
probably extend the life of my LX. We are moving over to Outlook in the
office and if I couldn't sync appointments from the LX to Outlook, I'd
be in trouble and might look for a replacement to the LX

As a new Visor owner, I find the lack of keyboard the most serious
drawback.  But I'm getting pretty good at Grafitti, which I never was
able to manage with the Omnigo or WinCE.  And most of the stuff I do
is read only.

There are several;  Look for Quicksheet?

I find I don't miss this as much as I thought - there are so many
programs out there for the Palm.  And most are affordable.  Anything
that can be put into HTML or CSV is pretty easy to move over to the
Visor.

<snipped>

> Any comments from LX users who've switched to Palms or Visors and

I'm carrying both now.  As soon as there is a Springboard module that
will hold a compact flash card I may have to decide which to keep,
since I can't afford 2 palmtops on a gadget budget.  I've promised my
husband that I'll sell one of them. :-)  (someday)

> One bad feature - the backlight was awful.

In partial light, yes - it is - but in darkness I don't have any
trouble reading the screen.  Font sizes are adjustable in most apps.
That helps.

Also, no Dos or Win 3.1 connectivity, although there are Mac and
Linux users out there.  I found out that the JetBeam for Dos is for
industrial use - they wanted $7,000 and royalties!!!!

Happy experimenting!

Funny you mentioned this.  My office switched to Outlook Exchange mail from
CC:mail.  I used the cc:mail built into the 200lx all the time.

I have a database of products that I keep inventory in the field.  When I
swap a unit the serial number has to be emailed back to the office so the
database there can reflect the change.  I had a macro that I just flagged
the items hit the macro which generated the cc:email automatically.  Then on
the next online run, they got the update.

Now, with exchange, I cannot do that.  I cannot even make a macro to make
post/lx send a pop3 email, which would work because they have an internet
gateway address.

So I asked for one of the Palm Pilot Pros the office had lying around to see
if I could us it for this purpose.  The lack of the keyboard is a real pain.
Something that I could do without thinking in ten seconds on the 200lx now
takes a few minutes of concentration (on making the letters right).  Very
irritating.

I have been searching for a database program.  But nothing seems even
remotely usable to me...

On the subject of the Handspring Visor and the springboard modules, I wonder:

What was wrong with PCMCIA that they needed to change the standard?

Sure does.  Although you can change the type, as I recall (Client, Class,

But sure, mail me off-list and I'll help out however I can.

It wasn't theirs. if they used pcmcia you could buy stuff from
anyone, this way you have to buy from them no matter what it
costs.

Thanks, Hal.  Yes, late Sunday night I came into the hospital with some
abdominal pain and ended up with surgery for appendicitis, and then the
surgery was botched and I ended up almost bleeding to death internally
before they realized it and rushed me back in for another surgery.  But
thanks to the miracle of modern medicine and modern palmtopping, I'm
recovering and able to comunicate from my hospital bed.  The really
amazing part is that the phone by my bed has an extra jack on the back of
it that says "Data Port" by it.  Pretty spiffy.

Anyway, thanks for the well wishes.  Unless anything else happens, I will
hopefully be able to leave in a couple of days and get back to work.

You know what might be interesting? Build a Palm OS device with the form
factor of the 200LX or Morphy One. Maybe you could have the standard Palm
screen offset to one side and the Graffiti area on the other side. (What the
heck... you could just ditch the Graffiti area, since you would have an
LX-like keyboard anyway). Have a CF slot on the side, and backlighting, and
you'd have a pretty nifty (well supported) little machine!
Even if such a gadget came out, I still don't know if I would be able to let
go of my beloved little LX though... I'm too dependent on PalEdit! <G>

Hi friends,

maybe you remember that I announced a few month ago that I planned to
write a program to track down blood sugar and some related values.

I already wrote a program, but this one only works in combination with
another (commercial) program 'Camit' by Boehringer Mannheim.
Does anyone of you fellow diabetics use Camit?
(I don't know if it's only sold in Germany or Europe or if it's also
available overseas).

Camit works AFAIK with all Accutrend blood glucose sensors that store
data. You can attach the sensor to the serial port and import the
stored data into Camit.
My program 'simulates' a sensor. You can enter the blood glucose and
several other things (like insuline, sports, meals etc.) and the
program stores the information in a file that can be read by Camit.

So you can use this program instead of taking the huge Accutrend DM
sensor with you. You only need a small sensor and the LX. :-)
Very handy for me!

If anyone's interested, please let me know. But don't expect too much,
since I wrote the program in C and I'm a total C beginner! ;-)
I surely will keep further development of the program, but right now,
my examination time begins and I don't have much time for such things.

Probably I'll NOT write a program that does the entire data management,
since I don't need it (I have Camit. That one does all data management
I need). Sorry. Too much trouble for me.

A friend at work informed me he had a 200LX he never used when he saw how
much I use mine.  I immediately offered to buy it from him, but it turns
out the unit is dead.  He apparently used a non-HP plug to plug in the
unit.  I don't know if he thought he had to charge it up or what.  Anyway,
I put in a pair of fresh AAs to test the unit, and it would not turn on.

Would that have killed the unit--(charging it with a non-standard AC
adaptor, I mean)?

If not, any other suggestions on what it might be?

The Only EXM editor that will do this is Freyja, which you can
get on SUPER.  It takes a little time to figure it all out,
but it is worth the effort.  Besides having multiple files open,
you can also split the screen and view 2 files at once.
One problem: it comes configured with a maximum buffer size of
32K, which means, if you use the default, all 6 files have to
fit in 32K.  You can change this to perhaps up to 256K,
depending on how much memory you have under sysmgr.  If you
want to do this I can send you instructions--they are there in
the documentation but you have to dig for it.

You might be able to run 6 memos but you would have to use
ClipVue to cut and paste between them, somewhat of a hassle
I think.

Heard this on the BBC tv news this morning (who announced that HP had won

email:

   "Amid rumours of big restructuring plans, FORD MOTOR COMPANY announced
   that it was to give all its 350,000 employees personal computers, as
   part of its plans to exploit the Internet to the full."

Presumably it's a WinCE/Jornada; the second-hand market will be

I think the Ford employees are getting desktop HP computers, not
palmtops.  The local news reported that they are getting "Home PCs" with
"$5 a month Internet access," which sounds a lot more like an HP Pavilion
or some other desktop, than a WinCE/Jornada.  Am I wrong?

You are right.Desktop is all they get.

"The base computer offered is a 500-megahertz HP
Pavilion with 64 megabytes of RAM, a 4.3 gigabyte hard
disk, CD-ROM, 15-inch monitor, speakers and a 56K
modem. The base printer is a color DeskJet 610.
Workers can upgrade both the PC and printer for an
undisclosed price. Notebook computers are not included
in the deal.

Hewlett-Packard officials declined to put a dollar
value on the PC and printer. The company's Web site
had similar base PCs and printers for about $1,000.

PeoplePC Inc. of San Francisco will manage the program
for Ford. According to PeoplePC Chairman Nick Grouf,
Ford is subsidizing the $5-a-month Internet fee, which
represents a substantial discount to the $24.95
PeoplePC typically charges to other customers as part
of a package when they buy less-sophisticated PCs and
no printer.

Ford, PeoplePC and Hewlett-Packard executives would
not disclose financial terms of the deal.

After signing on, the Internet connection will bring
users to a customized screen that will offer links to
other products and discounts, allowing Ford to benefit
from advertising revenues. Even so, the program will
not be supported exclusively by ads.

``We're not going to flood the screen with
advertising,'' said Ford Chief Information Officer
James Yost.

Executives said the arrangement would work like this
-- employees will get the PCs for three years, as well
as three-year parts and labor warranties. If they
leave the company, they would have to give the
computers back, though Ford may come up with a payment
plan allowing them to keep the machines. Details have
yet to be worked out.

Workers at Ford's Visteon parts unit could also
participate even after the subsidiary is spun off this
year. Workers at Ford's Mazda Motor Corp. (7261.T)
Japanese affiliate are not eligible.

Although Ford will have e-mail addresses for all of
its employees -- Nasser currently communicates with
Ford's white-collar employees via a weekly e-mail
newsletter -- the company will not be able to track
the Internet activity of its workers, Yost said.

Still, the company will control what employees first
see when they log on to the Internet. But that doesn't
bother Brenda Johnson, a member of UAW Local 900 and
worker at the Michigan Truck plant in Wayne, Mich.

Johnson, who does not currently own a PC, said she
especially welcomed the opportunity to get a computer
she can upgrade. ``I'm very excited by it,'' she said.

I've been following the threads regarding Act! on the 200lx, and it's lack
of leap year.  I'm using Act! V1 for Psion series 3a, which dose recognise
29th February 2000.  It was coded by Yellow software (who did Transfile) -
maybe this is a factor?  Anyway, if you need to use Act on a palmtop, you
might want to try a Psion 3a/c/mx

I might narrow it down to
WP 1, 5.1, PE, VDE.

WP5.1 is a wee big but lots of bells and whistles (if yu
need them).

WP 1 is verry small and commercial.

PE is good, vde is betta but bigga.

You are asking for the world, I use QEdit (TSR Jr.) with spell checker on a
floppy. I have it installed on my HP200LX  and use it without problem. The
program is 66 K The spell checker function adds another 160 K. It will do
word wrapping and remove soft returns. There are some add on programs that
can remove hard returns. Strip, I use it for removing extended characters in
documents.  QEdit (TSR Jr.) is strictly a text editor so uses standard
fonts. It would be nice to install a larger font. There are configuration
tools with it but you do not need them to use the program.

Anything fancy I use a full desktop and a word processor.

I don't think that there is a winner. Most of them do what you like.
Many of us stayed with Their Editor because they were used to it.

My choice is PalEdit as it integartes POST/LX, FIND/LX and PIM and will
help me one day, when SysMgr is gone and DOS is still availlable.

Have you tried a hard reset?

If you can backup your data and files, do that first

Then press all at the same time:  Ctrl-LEFTshift-ON and then answer NO
to the reinitialization question.

Good luck.

Did you change the timeoff time.  I once made mine so short it was
almost impossible to keep the unit on!

As they're making the Visor now, I don't think it's very
"future-proof".  It's rom is not in flash memory like the Palm's is
and it can't be upgraded.  I'm sure they'll have a later model with
the rom in flash and that will obsolete the ones that are selling
now.

Another one to look at, although it's much more expensive, is the
TRGPro, which is a Palm with flash memory (more than Palm's and user
available) and also a slot for a compact flash card.

Barry

<<Although an avid 200LX user, I was intrigued by the sight of a
Handspring Visor that a work colleague showed me yesterday. It's
getting
excellent reviews as a Palm clone ++. It has a free slot for future
improvements such as GPS, voice notes, MP3 players, pager etc.etc.
It's
like a "future - proof" palm. Was developed/commercialised by the
inventor of the Palm apparently. Demand is such that they can't
fullfill
orders.>>

<<Any comments from LX users who've switched to Palms or Visors and
come
back or stayed?>>

I'm an LX user and I bought a Palm 3x some time back.  It's
certainly much easier to carry.  Writing on it is harder and slower
than on the 200lx.  But when I was working my needs simple, a few
phone numbers and a few appointments, and I did switch to the Palm.
It was always in my pocket.  But the 200lx was always nearby.

While there is no keyboard, I do have a small keyboard for it called
the GoType.  I think it was $79.  I've hardly ever used it.  I don't
need it at home and I didn't carry it with me.  But if I had had to
do some serious typing it would have been fine for that.

Now that I'm retired I find the LX more useful and certainly more
fun.

Hello there

First of all you need WWW/LX from Dasoft..(but somebody already told
you that..:-)

You will not get your 6110 to work with your Hplx. 6110/6150 does not
have a built in modem. You need softwaremodem in addition to use it for
data. Nokia Cellular Data Suite is only for Win platform.

You could get a Tdk Global Puls(or plus) or something. This is a
pcmciacard with cabel which makes you able to use it as a modem. BUT I
have no idea if this works on the Hplx. Probaly not. Only for CE I
think.

Get one of these phones if you want to use it to connect it to the
Hplx:

Ericsson Sh888 Confirmed (According to Tomas Moberg on this list)
All Ericsson with Irda dongle DI27/28 (Not confirmed)
Ericsson R320 (not tested and not launched but have built in irda)

Nokia 8810 Confirmed (Andreas Garzotto(WWW/LX) have one)
Nokia 8210 Not tested but the same irda as 8810
Nokia 8850 Not tested but the same irda as 8810
Nokia 7110 Confirmed (I have one)
Siemens S25 (Problems with RF noise)
Siemens S35i (not tested/launched but have irda and internal arial)

Stefan did you get my mail with tests I did with Ring/7110? Is the 7110
better than the S25 when it comes to rf noise? It works very well..

This sounds interesting. My dad has a Psion 5MX and he has the ability
to have a "Work todo" on the left half of the screen and a "Private
Todo" on the right.. This is very okey for him..

Could you tell me more about the database/todo "trick" you do..

According to Pen Computing:
"To enable faster and easier acceptance of Springboard, it was designed
using the same 68 pin header of the PC Card (though the pinout is
different). This will make it easier for designers to build cards that are
compatible with Springboard, and enable them to use the same,
readily-available sockets that have become an industry standard."
So in fact the spring board slot is a PCMCIA Slot

Too bad what was placed under the hood wasn't equal to the concept.

You know what might be interesting? Build a Palm OS device with the form
factor of the 200LX or Morphy One. Maybe you could have the standard Palm
screen offset to one side and the Graffiti area on the other side. (What the
heck... you could just ditch the Graffiti area, since you would have an
LX-like keyboard anyway). Have a CF slot on the side, and backlighting, and
you'd have a pretty nifty (well supported) little machine!
Even if such a gadget came out, I still don't know if I would be able to let
go of my beloved little LX though... I'm too dependent on PalEdit! <G>

Jeff told us that it works very well. The money is drawn from your Visa
card. The only problem is that is not launched in Norway/Europe yet..

But when it is launched I could beam money to anybody with my wap
phone..(or by email with my LX).. But the main thing is that you have
to trust the individual that you are beaming money to.

BTW is there anybody on the list that lives in Hillsboro Orlando? I
have sent some money to somebody there for a used Hp200lx but he claims
that he has not gotten the money yet. Was sent 13 january.. I will wait
for a while before I raise hell with my bank to see if he have cashed
the check.. If somebody lives nearby they could smack him around if it
gets needed :-))

TIA

Glad it turned out well..

This would never have happend at Thaddeus if they ran a emergency

Thats great..but then again you could have used the Hp 700lx with your
cellular :-)? I used it when I was hospitaliezed last year.

I will go into hospital next month too to remove some metal, but I will
probably use my 7110/Hplx to access email and news. I'll have to do the
communicating under the carpet since it is not allowed with cellular
phones on the hospital.. :-))

Best wishes from me..I hope you are up and running againg in no time..

Nope.  It may be mechanically the same, but if the pinout is different,
it's NOT a PCMCIA slot, and won't work with PCMCIA cards.

I used to be a little jealous of people being able to pull
out a pilot out of nowhere, it seems, and sitting
confortably with a backlit screen (specially the Palm V's).
But then I noticed how long it took them to write anything .
. . 8-)

My hplx is bulkier, but I write anything on it anywhere in
no time at all.

Someone here mentioned a mini keyboard which covers the
graphity area of the palm pilot.  Anyone knows a URL?

InfoSelect is the main reason why I gave the Palm Pilot a
second look.

Bill Gates tried, but Palm seems to be the future of
palmtops.

But with the Palm and Visor, I see major deficiencies:-

No keyboard (although perhaps users find tapping the on -

keyboard with the pen OK, don't know)


I run Info Select for DOS on my 200LX and wouldn't be

  DON'T!  Hospitals frown on people using cell phones for a good reason...
The sensitive electronics in EEG/EKG machines have a very hard time dealing
with serious EMF like what comes off a cell phone.  Some heart monitors used
in emergency rooms and in cardiac wards can also be deafened by the EMF from
a cell phone.  Some new systems have filters that try to deal with the
problem, but many hospitals have to use the older equipment they already
have and ask cell-phone users to cooperate.

  If you happen to be cell-phone web-surfin' (or just chatting with someone)
at the same time that someone nearby on a monitor had a heart-attack or a
seizure, you could be responsible for someone not getting attention when
they BADLY need it...

  When I enter a hospital, I turn OFF my cell phone.

  Use the bedside data-port or a payphone....  It's not as "sexy", but it's
a lot more considerate of other patients.

  You're right...  But it also means it might be possible to create an
adapter that will swap the pins around to allow using a PCMCIA card...

  On the other hand, it's damn stupid (and shortsighted) of them to get that

I've been using my 8MB DS 200LX for a year and have never noticed a

Yes, and no... The handspring like palm has a Keep It Simple mentality,
handspring
modules automaticaly install/uninstall their drivers and additional software
when
inserted, so the Palm OS doesnt require any overhead for management of the
port.

If it was an open CF slot then it would require the PalmOS to have builtin
support for
it, which would complicate things. Im sure at some point their will be a
springboard
card that has a CF slot (I think the MP3 player does this) but by keeping
their springboard
slot simple they keep the palmOS from getting bloated with the need for
device drivers
an detection of modems, flash cards, network cards etc.

If you like the Palm, but want a CF solution you might want to check out the
TRG palm
clone... its basically an 8mb Palm IIIx with the IR port shifted over to the
side and a CF
slot added... Currently they have drivers for ATA flash and a few CF
modems... Its even
a Type II card slot which works with the IBM microdrive which is the largest
Palm data
solution ive seen yet. (340mb).

Unlike M$ and their WinCE mentality Palm goes out of their way to keep the
OS small,
and overhead low.   Overall its been a good strategy for them a it keeps
their OS easy
to develop for, and maintains a high level of compatibility in their
hardware.   It also lets
their licensees make themselves distinctive by offering different
'enhancements' to the
palm OS... CF support from TRG,  Springboard from Handspring, and soon Sony
Memory
Stick support in Sony's upcoming device, and im sure it won't end there.

Well enough of my babbling... back to your regularly scheduled list
messages. :)

The PCMCIA bus is just ISA in a different form factor. Since the Viso has a
non-Intel part inside, it probably would have cost them an extra part or two
to put a conversion from whatever they've got to regular PCMCIA signalling.
You'd probably need some kind of ASIC to do the conversion. The reason
CardBus cards don't work in PCMCIA slots is because cardbus took those pins
and defined a multiplexed address and data scheme (PCI). PCMCIA 2.1 defines
separate address and data (meaning less range to both).

Actually you find WWW/LX Plus on it home webpage
http://www.dasoft.com I maintain only the version on our
Webpage. Hopefully www.palmtop.net uses a link to our
webpage.

It is a commercial software, not shareware. You can
download a limited demo. It costs $89.00 and with payment
we send registration information which will remove the
limitation of the demo mode.

Re 6110 - I do not think it will work with IR, because that
unit has no IR AFAIK. It will work with PCMCIA Cellular
modem if you can find a low-power modem and the cable to
connect the modem and the phone..

I should say "maybe for sale."

I'm thinking of trying out an Omnibook 800, in order to do some of the
more demanding development stuff I'd like to try.  I can't afford an OB800
out of pocket right now, though, so I might be interested in selling the
LX to finance one.

--200LX. It's a 2MB unit, and has no hinge crack that I can see.
--Newton keyboard.  It has the original zippered case and the keyboard
cable is uncut; I've made a little adaptor (included) that plugs into the
keyboard cable at one end and the LX-to-serial cable at the other.
--Sparcom Drive100 external (serial) 3.5" floppy drive.  This thing cost
me quite a bit, but I don't use it nearly as much as I thought I would.
It's slow, and the batteries don't hold a charge that well, so it's pretty
much confined to the desktop.  It is handy, though, for transferring files
to a desktop machine that doesn't have an open serial port for the link
cable. Original docs, connector cable, and AC adaptor included.
--Original LX user's guide and quick start guide, LX-to-serial cable, and
Intellisync software.
--All of the software that I use is either freeware or beta stuff that
can't be released, so I will probably just initialize the RAM and you can
start from a clean slate.

I'd like to see $600 out of this kit so that I can comfortably get into an
Omnibook, but as I've never seen this combo for sale before I may be off
on my price.  In other words, make me your best offer and I might just go
for it.

Let me know if you have any questions at all.

By the way, I don't intend to leave the palmtop community for good, as I
think the 200LX is still unbeatable as a rugged, efficient, ultraportable
computing tool.  I'll be back before too long!

Is the PC connectivity cable the same as a regular serial cable, or is it
a null modem cable?

I actually need a null modem cable so I can use my palmtop
as a dumb terminal for a UNIX box, so would this do the trick?

Here is a link for the cable:

Some of those newer laptops could be 15" diagonal - a 9x12 screen is 15"
diagonal, and they have less and less border on newer machines.  They
could make a 9.5" x 12.5" x 3/4" laptop nowadays pretty easily, I don't
know if one such has been made, have been focusing on smaller machines
<G>

Probably just a desktop, though.

Subject:      100LX and 48MB FLASH Card
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello,

I just bought a 48MB pcmcia ATA flash card for my
100lx.  I checked to make sure the card is only 5
volts and the milli amps are well below the 150
milliamp limit.

But for some reason when I put the flash card in the
100LX it says "drive A: device not ready".  If I try
to format A: it says that device cannot be formatted.

Is there something special I need to do to get this
card working with my 100LX?

Any help would be appreciated.

Questor

I am using an Antec "Attache" It is very small, fits on top of my OB800
in a case, runs off a PCMIA card. I think it will work out OK for me.
Check the sites below. They all have small portable scanners. IOMagic
has USB and parallel scanners, the two thers have PCMCIA interfaces.

You can get an Antec at Micro Center.

Not is our area.  My wife works at Ford Motor Headquarters in
Dearborn Michigan, and they announced at 9:30 A yesterday that
all employees were going to receive a HP 500 Mhz desktop,
complete with HP printer, and for $5.00 a month, internet access.

She already has her own personal HP 620LX, which she loves, but
heard nothing about receiving a Jornada.  We of course are very
greatful for the gift.  It was stated they had this huge amount
left over in their training budget, so they decided to give all
employees a free home computer.

I am a contract employee for G.M., and there is a lot of rumors
here that Ford had another motive for giving the computers away,
such as making it easier to contact employees at home, a big tax
write off, and cheap training to sharpen employees computer
skills, but I think everyone here at G.M. is just jealous.

For example G.M. announced that their bonus this year was like
$700, and Ford announced a $8000.00 bonus this year, which I
might add is just for the average employee, and the higher up
you are, the more you may receive, like my wife, which got a
huge bonus again this year!

The keyboard needs no power since it's just a bunch of switches.
It's small and not too hard to carry with you but it's not portable
in the way the Palm or the 200lx is portable.  It's pretty easy to
type on even though it's a little smaller than full size.  They've
done a pretty fair job of making keys do the things you'd normally
do with the stylus but you can't really get rid of the styles.  You
need it to make menu selections unless their newer drivers have
dealt with this.  it was most complained about feature so they might
have fixed it.  I haven't ugraded my drivers in about a year.

It does require a driver in the form of a hack on the Palm and I
suggest also getting HackMaster if you use hacks.  It works fine
without it but you'll be glad if you get it.

If you don't know the Palm don't be thrown by the word "hack".
They're kind of like a TSR on a dos computer except that they're
supported by in the OS.

I only have a few of these left so am auctioning them off at cost:

Hope everyone is well. Sorry to be so absent as of late. Word is that a
SUPER update is coming. Jeff and Bill have been a bit busy.

I finally got ADSL service into my home. It's very impressive, but
unfortunately not a candidate for palmtop.net hosting due to the dynamic
IP architecture. It is literally 18 times faster than my 56K dialup.

My 200LX is off for repair and I'm looking forward to getting it back
from the fine folks at Thaddeus.

And finally, a get well soon shout out to David Sargeant!

Well, if you can't use it on a daily basis--then why bother?  Thanks for
the confirmation of its (lack of) utility.

I would say that is impossible to specify without inspecting the
unit, as a completely fried motherboard with a broken display might
have no value, while at the other extreme only a resistor or diode
may be blown and a fix might cost only a few dollars.

That's why I recommended it be sent to Thaddeus.

>Could you tell me more about the database/todo "trick" you do..

Martin, to answer your question:-

I use the following structure in the LX's built - in to do list for what
I want to do TODAY

1 TO DO TODAY
1------------------high priority----------------
A Item 1
A Item 2
A0-----------------medium priority--------------
B Item 1
B Item 2
B0-----------------lower priority---------------
C Item 1
C Item 2

I set up a database for my MASTER TO DO list. It's simply a text item
(to do category) and a note. An example could look something like this
where ">" in the database NOTE below is used to distinguish text
associated with its parent to do item:-

Administration (then in a note f3)

Sort out storage in office
Check invoices cleared

Budget (then in a note f3)

Do year 2000 budget
>
Need to get list of next year's objectives approved first

Car (then in note f3)

Arrange car service
>
Check calendar for best day
Make a list of faults

DIY
Miscellaneous
Personal
Project spending
Saturn Project
Travel
Venus project etc etc

In this way, the project heading categorises each list of to do's and
sorts them alphabetically

I created a macro for sending a database note to do item and its
associated note from the database into the today's to do (and back if I
change my mind). The macro for moving to do items from the database note
to today's to do works like this. You highlight all the text in the note
(typically a top line to do item and it's associated note). It takes the
text from database note into an appointment book note, the top line of
the note only is then cut and pasted into the to do field. This gives a
to today do item with its note. If today's to do gets too crowded,
another fn key is set up to send it back to the database.

BTW, I like to use the built - in diary as my primary to do management
centre because of it's features e.g. its ability to set recurring items
etc. etc.

To my mind, the benefits of this method are as follows:-

You have a truly separate "to do today" and master list. I like to just
focus in any one day what I have to do on that day (like the system in a
paper planner). This way, your daily to do list doesn't get drowned by a
list of all master items.

You get Faster loading and saving of the appointment book.

You can add new to do headings (like categories) in database on the fly
and they sort automatically.

Hope this helps, best regards

I'm not only new to the list, but have been using a 200lx for just over a
year.

I'm trying to get Borland's Turbo C++ 3.0 (DOS) to run on the palmtop. The
path
statement in the autoexec.bat file inculde a:\tc;a:\tc\bin (I'm running it
from a
memory card) but when I try to run the program (in DOS only, not with the
HP200
shell running) I get the error:

Failed to locate the DPMI server (DPMI16BI.OVL)

Now I know that this file is located in a:\tc\bin, and the path statement
points
to there already.

Can anyone help?

True, a habit, a refusal to change, like staying married to a useless
partner (no flames please)

And, just as you say, most of the editors miss one or two features i prefer.
By "large font" i did not mean for printing, but for the screen.

Most dos editors don't have large screen fonts because they were made for
desktops, except Laplink editor LE, which i have, but which has awful, pain
in the neck copy-paste features and only 2 files open.

no winner yet....

TC++ 3.0 will not run on the LX. It requires protected memory (DPMI),
something which the 80186 processor in the LX cannot provide. 286 (386?)
and above only, I'm afraid. Turbo C++ 2.0 is the latest version to run on
the LX.

You can't run version 3.0 on the palmtop.  Turbo C++ 3.0 requires a 286 or
386 (can't remember which) but will not run on the palmtop.  You need
Borland C++ 2.0 or Turbo C++ 1.0.

I apologize for taking this route - but Mr. Kelley has been

that the name is unknown. I left two messages on the
telephone number I had, but Mr. Kelley does not seem to
check the phone (I presume it is at work...)

So I am hoping Mr. Kelley reads this list. If so - I NEED

PE (PalEdit) can use all the built-in fonts, including the

PE!

:-)

I don't know HOW to remove hard returns, but I would be very surprised
if it was impossible.
All other things PE does very well. One great advantage is, that is
looks (and acts) like the built-in apps, so you can use the ZOOM-kay to
switch between fonts and use the F-keys for lots of other nice
features.

Martin, thank you for the list of "palmtop friendly mobiles".
I didn't receive your mail with the RING/7110 results. But let
me take the opportunity to put some things into order:

The Nokia phones seem to work with unmodified HP200LX.
You will still have RF noise, but below the critical number of
"serial frame errors", so that a connection can be made, but
instead of 9600, you will probably see something more like
4800 Baud.

With Siemens phones, you usually cannot connect, unless you
are close to the transmitter/receiver base station. The number
of serial frame errors is just too high.

I can only speculate, why this difference is between the Nokia
and Siemens mobiles: The Nokia mobiles seem to be better
shielded and they seem to use a stronger IR signal. The Nokia
IR signal has a range of about 1m, whereas the maximum S25
range is 20-30 cm, indeed resulting in a lower power
consumption of the S25. You may have IrDA always ON with the
S25 without additional power consumption. This is very handy,
because you don't have to manipulate the S25, if you want to go
online. Just put it besides the palmtop.

But as I said, the Siemens phones generally only work, if you
modify the hardware of your palmtop. The operation is
comparable to the speed upgrade. But it only works for about
50% of all palmtops, and there is no way to tell, if your
palmtop will work or not, unless you tried it. There is still
research going on to find an upgrade which will work with every
palmtop, but until now, everything failed.

There were rumors about palmtops which need no modification to
work with the S25, but it turned out to be not true. If you
check your palmtop with my test program RING.COM, and you call
it from within SysMgr, make sure, you have setup "serial power
on" in the DOS box, otherwise it will not work, fooling you to
think, your palmtop shows no RF noise.

Please also note, that you can always transfer SMS over IrDA.
This is no indication for a RF immunity, because the SMS are
transferred while the mobile is offline, but the RF noise
only occurs while the mobile is online.

Summary: The Nokia mobiles seem to be a better choice at the
moment, but they are also more expensive. If you want to buy a
S25, you should check, if your palmtop can be modified to
become RF immune. Look at

http://daniel.hplx.net/hplxir/index.html

for a detailed explanation of how this is done. But also with
a Nokia phone you will profit of this upgrade, because it
will remove the "serial frame errors", resulting in a higher
transfer rate.

I'm afraid it isn't going to work.  BC++ 2.0 is the last version of
Borland C++ that will work on the 200lx.  Beginning with 3.0 they
required a 386 or better cpu.

The 80186 in the 200lx will substitute for a 286 as long as
protected mode isn't used, but it can't fill in for a 386 with it's
memory management and in BC++ 3.0 wants protected mode anyway.

TC++ 1.0 and BC++ 2.0 are the only C++ compilers I know of that will
work on the 200lx.  The earlier C (not ++) compilers will work fine
and they're available for free download from Borland now.  But they
have no class. :)

I use TC 2.0 on mine.  By the way, the other limitation is neither
TD or the ide debugger will work reliably on the lx.

If not for the average, than at least for those living in the UK! To
relate the thread to the HPLX again: The others could do with the
Collins' on their LXs, supposed they kept these away from Luddites.
Thanks you culturally challenging American and Collins' I have the
concept now. Beyond survival, it remains a challenge to exchange
information really worth talking about, in whatever language!

Some translators and teachers apparently use an artificially inflexible
concept of English just to avoid confusion (and subtleties). The best
speaking Brits might have a hard time passing some of their tests!

I am Dutch, my work is with groundwater, and I have a long-standing
co-operation and friendship, and chats about language and terminology,
with Brits. To one of them (the purists' purist?) I owe the point that
we Dutch, proud as we are of our windmills, probably export much ground
water. Since I learned this, I often use the word wind pumps in English
texts, mainly in order to invoke native English speakers changing that
into windmills. One person, however, suggested 'usually called blowers
in technical English'. He must have understood our sailors need wind!
Like this person, average Europeans would possibly just not understand
the term wind pump for wind-driven water pump. I am convinced many
Dutch would be drown had they relied on English! Many Brits would
colloquially say windmill rather than wind pump though, I assume.

Indulged? Cheers!

Geert.

Did you try the all-batteries replacement?: Take out all batteries,

If you mean that the debuggers do not support the graphics modes used by PAL,
I agree. But what other problems are there with debugging. I do this quite a bit
(lots of bugs). You can also REMOTE debug on the palmtop using Borland C++ 3.1
Turbo debugger on a desktop, to debug a program running on the palmtop.

Try this person.  Jack Shimek <jack@globalmonitor.com>

He had a bunch of microcomms on E-bay. I got a 14400 for 7.00.
It's not as small as the worldport but it does run on 9 volts.

communication with the max nbr of peeple.  At this point in
history, it just happens to be eng. In Herald Tribune (NY
Times) article a koupla days ago, Japan and Korea both said
their eng wasn't good enough to deel effectively in world
trade, tech, finance, etc. and expect to spend more money
to improve their peeple's eng.  They ack that w/o eng they
wood slip behind. Another reeson is that most of the
world's developments are pub in eng.  Even if translated,
the translators gotta know eng.  I've always thought the
chinese were short changed bekause of bad translations
leeving out the good parts.

Do you know why the key's not working any more? Maybe there's just a
little bit of dust under the key. Try to blow it away with compressed
air!
Is the on key the only one that's not working?

You can use Stefan Peichl's LXPRO.
The key 5 sets the time out. If you set it to 'OFF', the palmtop will
not turn off. But note that the palmtop also won't fall into the light
sleep mode, so the batteries won't last long.

Try typing "Gallerz" rather than "Gallery". The easter egg might be

About PALM-LE editor
Removing Carriage Returns Utility menu

Use "Remove Carriage Returns" to selectively remove carriage returns (also
known as "CR/LFs," "paragraph markers," or "hard returns") from the file.

For example, when you open most ASCII files there is a carriage return at
the end of each line and paragraphs will not "flow" properly between the
margins.  If you remove the carriage returns, consecutive lines are
converted to one long paragraph which fits smoothly between the margins.

Returns are not removed if:

1  There are two returns in a row (like a
   typewriter, two returns usually separate
   paragraphs)

2  The next line starts with a space (this
   indention is usually a deliberate separation
   from the previous paragraph)

3  The next line starts with a tab (same reason as
   space)

I find this VERY useful, especially for formatting e-mail messages for
storage or pasting into other messages

If you don't get one, you can visit daniel.hplx.net/palmtop.html to see
how to make such a connector by yourself. :-)

<<If you mean that the debuggers do not support the graphics modes

(lots of bugs). You can also REMOTE debug on the palmtop using
Borland C++ 3.1
Turbo debugger on a desktop, to debug a program running on the

I've used remote debugging with a few problems but some success.
But the point of programming on a palmtop is to program wherever you
happen to be.  At least as I see it.

I use Microsoft's Symdeb for debugging either c or asm.  It and it's
accompanying Mapsym both work with Borland's mapfile and line number
information to give you symbolic and limited source level debugging.
It can also handle CGA graphics switches, which is what I always
use.  I don't see much advantage in using the LX only graphics modes
since they're non-standard and the functions in rom are too slow.
I've written most of my own functions and I've added some that I
didn't write myself such as bezier lines.

Symdeb is an upgraded version of Dos's debug that used to come with
Masm in the days before Codeview.  I've tried a lot of other
debuggers but this is the only source/symbolic one that works
reliably.  Some of the others I've tried are all versions of TD,
several versions of Codeview, D86, Power C Trace, the debugger whose
name I can't think of that comes with registered copies of PCC, TC
and QuickC ide debuggers and a several others I can't think of right
now.  They all have problems either with locking up or an inabilty
to handle graphics.  D86 is fine if you stay out of graphics modes
but locks up when you go into CGA modes.

If you've found something I've missed I'd love to know.  I haven't
been programming on the palmtop much lately but I will again.

Hi!

What for do I need a graphics cursor in PAL-applications, if I do not have a
pointing device?

Is the graphics cursor a standard DOS function, or is it HPLX specific? It's
created by such an int-function=2E How do I move it?!?

I can define a graphics cursor, but this does not seem to be a 1-depth bitmap=2E

I believe Thaddeus fixes palmtops for a set cost. I forget how much. Find out
the cost from them, then subtract that amount from what you would offer for a
*working* palmtop. The balance is what you should offer for a non-working
palmtop.

You still need a cursor when displaying text in graphics mode, and/or
for graphics apps.

No, and yes.

You need a copy of the LX ref.  There is (or was) a copy available
online, but I've forgotten the address.  Can look it up and post it
later.  I'm not a C programmer - prefer Forth, and have a set of Forth
extensions (for HP-Pygmy Forth) that handle the graphics cursor in 4
sizes.  If you can read Forth these might help.  Available on SUPER.

Thanks, I tried this already, but it really doesn't seem to be included
in the German version. Also tried to type in Galerie, the German
translation of gallery... nothing.
But one kind list member sent me the EXE file of the US version, and
now I'm happy! :-)

Electronic Dictionary. It's v1.01 , does definitions for over 116,000 =
words

original box has 5, 3-1/2" disks and includes the Modern Language
Association's 'Line By Line' 219 page book and includes the original
registration card that has not been filled out. I would like to get $20 =
for
it and can ship it however you may desire. It can ship via USPS Priority
Mail for $3.20. If no one is interested off to eBay it goes <grin>.

Hugo:

My partner here at work does this from Outlook 2000 by specifying CDF
format for Outlook to EXPORT, then he runs this file through the TrueSync
software to his Rex-3.

MIME-Version: 1.0

Hello all,

I'm trying to hook to a Netware 3.11 server (yes that old)
and also an NT 4.0 Server by using a Silicom card in the
200LX, I got as a loan for one week. It's a 1MB 1x speed
model, so C: storage is limited, but there is a 8MB ATA.

I can't figure out how to sequence the required programs
to successfully load all services to log into NW and to=FB
access NT40. If you have a working set of config.sys,
autoexec.bat, net.cfg, etc. then please share with me.

BTW, I will also install and try a DOS architect CAD
program, called ArCAD and report how its demo works
on the 200LX with ATA-flash.

Thank you in advance, Sincerely: Tamas Feher.

Yes, the 1000 series came out (I think) in the early 70's or so, and
sold through the late 80's. They were meant to be industrial equipment
controllers, and had 16+ switches on the front panel so they could be
loaded with a small program to boot up. They were very rugged and ran
a real-time OS called RTE.

It was different from the 3000, which was a business mini-computer
that ran MPE for its OS.

That's before my time then.

I've been toying with the idea to build a small packet interface with my

I figured something fairly small and in a case simular to an external mike,
with a infra-red link to my 200LX.


Has anyone seen something simular to this out in the world aready? Any
pros/cons to this set up?

I've stumbled across the packeteers site already and did not see anything
like this.

MIME-Version: 1.0

Hello all,

There was something called Bansai Microfax. It was essen-
tially a send-only tiny fax machine, hardly wider than a
LGL/A4 page. Resolution was 200 dpi or 100dpi in preview.

It came with a cross-over phone cable and software that
allowed it to be used as scanner, using the fax-modem of
your palmtop for receiving. It could send fax via own
scanner engine and built-in phoneplug socket. You recei-
ved incoming fax by your portable PC and its modem.

An older OCR (Recognita 1.25) was included in the pack.
I do not know if the scanner had full 256 grayscale (8-
bit) colordepth or only limited (16/64) but it was more
than pure black and white.

The URL used to be <www.bansai.com> but its gone. I
have thrown away the brochures just the last week...

Hi Lars,
   Before posting virus warnings, check them out on the web here...
http://kumite.com/myths/
You will find the "wobbler" "give a cat a colonic" hoax listed here...
http://www.datafellows.com/hoaxes/wobbhoax.htm
(I am not associated with that site or anything).

Most of these things are hoaxes, and it pays to check them out first
before sending out a warning.

Lars,

That "virus" is a hoax and the "message" from IBM, AOL, etc., is a part
of the hoax.  Chech the Semantic virus website at:

http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w97m.suppl.html

Do a search on "Wobbler" and you will see the report from last August.

Hi friends,

sorry that I take the bandwidth of this list for such a private
purpose..

me (I?) and my girlfriend are planning to visit Vancouver in August
2000. I know that some of you live in or near Vancouver, maybe some
others of you went there before - so my question:

Can anyone recommend a _cheap_ but good hotel (or youth hostel) in
Vancouver? Maybe any recommendations what has to be visited in
Vancouver? 8-)

Please answer off list, and thanks for your efforts,

daniel

Hi folks,

There were a couple of people interested a while back in a
space strategy game that I was writing for the LX. The bad
news is that I don't really have the time to continue
writing it. The good news, however, is that I have now
managed to find all the source code! <g>

Not much help, I know, but if there are any
talented/wannabe/useless C/C++ programmers out there who
fancy a challenge, you can grab the (really horrible) code
at http://games.hplx.net/games/downloads/source.zip (48
KB). Alternatively, feel free to start afresh and just use
the ideas for a totally new game - I'm not fussy! :-)

 -Mike http://games.hplx.net

P.S. Hope you're feeling better, David!

Hope I didn't insult you or otherwise offend you with my "offer" a few
days ago.  I haven't heard back from my message - I guess I can take
that as a no.  That's okay, just asking.

But can you comment on the cost of a memory upgrade (5/6 to 32MB) for
a unit that already has a x2 crystal?  Your price lists on the website
doesn't mention this.

Martin,
If you haven#t already, you could try the samples/utils directory in the
PAL distribution.

I seem to remember there is a dialog editor and a font editor.

THere are also sample applications that test/show each area of functionality of PAL.
E.g. A 'menu' app that just has lots of menus that don't do anything.


Hope that helps,
Mike

Geert,

OK.  Talk to you next week or whenever you have time.
Thanks.

Probably the easiest way to do it is just send me the whole
package (Manuals if you have them, power adaptor, laplink
cable, etc.) and I will try to see if I can fix it.

Let me know what is the best (least expensive) way the send
it to Richmond, VA & the best way for me to get you $$ to
cover you shipping and packing costs

Lars,

Sorry you fell vinctim to such a dumb thing. Sorry for the bandwidth this will
take, but perhaps the information will help people understand better what to do
with such "warnings". .

The proper place to check on viruses and hoaxes is http://www.datafellows.com
and click on Virus and Security Information, then on Hoax Warnings. The direct
URL: http://www.datafellows.com/hoaxes ...

The BEST recommendation is to NOT forward the warning - it is doing NO ONE any
favor. Spammers occasionally float such warnings on purpose because people who
do not better tend to send the warning on the their entire address book, and
invariably the spammer will get a new batch of addresses!

Besides, panic has worked against any cleanup efforts. And hoax perpetrators
have a grand time seeing their hoax take up 5-10% of the total email traffic on
the internet because people simply do know better...

So here is the text of hoax warning from Datafellows (who make F-Prot, one of
the best Virus fighters around!)

The URL for this hoax is http://www.datafellows.com/hoaxes/wobbhoax.htm and
your particular hoax version, the cat colonic, is mentioned specifically. This
was dated on Datafellows' page as 2000.01.26 ...

Check it out....

It is always a good idea to be wary about virus warnings, especially if the
alleged virus seems to combine just about any evil force that could be
imagined. It is also interesting to know that IBM sold its antivirus
operation to Symanctec at least a year ago; therefore, virus warnings from
IBM are not so terribly likely.

I am thinking of doing that so if someone really wants an itsy, you can

Tentative inquiry at the moment (waiting my finance
ministers consent 8-)  )

I would like to buy one of the IBM workpad z50
currently advertised on www.ecost.com for
$267.99.  However they will not export.  Does
any one on the list (regulars that I know preferred 8-) )
prepared to act as a go between.

Would anticipate transferring funds to a bank account
for PC+Printer cable+shipping plus a small handling
commission <grin>.

As I said tentative at the moment, subject to sucking
up to the business manageress 8-).  Income is down
this financial year, so guess who gets the blame, and
has to make cuts to his technology budget.

Really wanted a Psion 5mmx to play with.

By the way any comments on the z50?

Hi Chris Lott,

<<Hal, Hope I didn't insult you or otherwise offend you with my "offer" a
few
days ago.  I haven't heard back from my message - I guess I can take
that as a no.  That's okay, just asking.>>

No, you didn't insult me at all.  Actually, you are a man after my own
heart.  I am always looking for win-win situations.  I am so backed up in
email and other things going on, I didn't have time to respond.

Actually, in the case of your offer, we seldom, if ever, make deals on
non-volume orders. It creates a dangerous precedent.  Further, often
something gets screwed up on any "special case". Also, special cases take
more time to process. Finally, it sets a confusing example for other of our
staff who are offered "deals" -- what criteria should we set for excepting a
deal?

<<But can you comment on the cost of a memory upgrade (5/6 to 32MB) for
a unit that already has a x2 crystal?  Your price lists on the website
doesn't mention this.>>

When we set price we assume the person has a x2 crystal since all our
upgrades include doublespeed. So, if you didn't have the doublespeed,
technically we should charge extra.  The price is $360.

In general any virus that is supposed to infect your
system simply by opening an email is almost always a
hoax.  Now if an email has an attachment (other than
gif, jpg, bmp, etc) then you might want to be careful.

It is considered sound advice to only open attachments
from emails of people you know, and only if those
emails are not the pass-it-along type.  (Yes, I have
had friends send me funny little attachments that
turned out to be viruses. I don't open them myself,
but I invariably get a call from them saying "my
computer is giving me errors").

So....

Trust no one.

The truth is out there.

Just becuase you're paranoid, doesn't mean the world
isn't out to get you.

Talk quietly and carry a big anti-virus program.

Okay, these last four statments are a little over the
top.  Suffice it to say; use common sense.

Probably untrue, but because the OS is in ROM, the consequences of
any virus on the 200 would be quite limited (i.e. loss of data is
a distinct possibility, but not `destruction' of the machine...)

They are 1400mAH, 1.24 volt rated.  Bought them online around Christmas
time, folowed a link posted by someone here.

What kind of experience have any of you had with this chemistry
battery?  Any tips or comments on them?  How long do you typically go
between charges?  What voltages do you charge them to?  Declare them
expired?  I'm using ABC/LX...  any tips using it with NiMH?  Any
recommendations for charging them outside the LX - in a standalone
charger, for example?

I have played with it and have gotten it to work. I could give you some
pointers if you like. What exactly is the problem?

I have set up a lot of applications with moreexm and also in the
Applicationmanager. I have also used Exmbatch to have some
dosapplications in the Tblx. I do not use it much..only to show off
sometimes. But it looks cool, but I was to slow to use I think..

Just ask and I will try to answer.. :-)

I heard of a type that hides some executable code somehow
in the subjec and when you read the email, even without
opening the attachments, something happens. I am not sure
how this works, actually.

Nah. There are plenty of DOS viruses, and others for Macs
and other O/S... There is nothing in Windows that is more
inviting than other O/Ss to viruses other than a large
"customer base" :) ...

I received viruses by email on the palmtop, but they were
not effective because they tried to change the OS and it
was tough going, chiseling into that ROM on D: ... But I
did receive a virus that affected files, however indirectly
- it was an attached program. I ran it on another palmtop,
my backup and it damaged files immediately. It was an OLD
DOS virus.

David,

 I am not sure what 'destruction' of the machine
refers to in your post.  A virus's most agressive
impact would be loss of data and if they are very
good, perhaps a re-write of some CMOS firmware.  Now a
CMOS virus is pretty rare since it is specific to the
maker of the firmware itself.  Even a virus of this
nature does not irrevocably destroy a machine, it at
most requires a new CMOS chip, but let's face
it....loss of data (and spread of a virus) are the
real dangers of a virus.

So even though the OS is in ROM, the LX's are just as
prone to getting viruses (that are just as destructive
as almost any other machine. Granted, there is never a
need to re-install the OS, except to copy some files
from the D: drive, but an OS install is pretty simple
for DOS anyway.

I'd say the main factor in the LX's favor is that
there are very few individuals who would bother to
write a virus for a machine written in DOS, at least
not anymore (Some of the earliest PC viruses were
written as DOS Batch files)

By the way, someone earlier posted that viruses only
happen in windows (or something like that).  This is
not true.  Viruses can be written for any operating
system, even mainframe operating systems, or lowly DOS
operating systems.  They are most prevalent in Windows
becuase something like 80% of all PC's run windows.
Most virus writers are doing so to cause a major
impact on as many systems as possible....so the more
systems they can infect the more likely they will
target a given OS.

I also have *heard* fo things like this, but I
honestly believe they are more of the same Hoax BS
that gets passed around. (There is a group of people
out there that seem to  want everyone to be too afraid
to open thier email).

Think about it....if someone could embed executable
code directly into an email (and not as an attachment)
then every virus maker out there would write their
viruses using that method and we would all have them.

Chris,
 I have been using NiHM batteries for years and have found them to be
quite superior to all other rechargeable batteries. I have ABC/LX and
find it is very useful because one can create an optimum battery
charging profile.
 I would recommend getting using NiMH batteries in conjunction with
ABC/LX. It is a killer combination. If you decide to charge these
batteries outside the LX, don't use a fast charger. It wears out the
batteries quicker.

Hi Chris -

I get about 10 hours between charges with Panasonic 1500 mAHr cells
from DigiKey.  (It's getting a little less now, so maybe time to swap
sets & recondition this pair).  The maximum voltage during charging is
pretty much irrelevant.  The most important parameter is stall time
(maybe about 5 hours - I think that was recommended on Mack's page -
and it's what I use).  If you use a standalone charger, try to find one
that has an intelligent cycle - preferably one can detect the delta-V
at the end of the cycle.

Peniel

I have received one of the new 56K modems from Thaddeus, and have installed
DOSPPP (by Antonio Lopez Molero) and LXTCP (by Rod Whitby).

The setup was quite easy, thanks to the clear instructions from Antonio and Rod!

Problem: I am not able to access to hosts outside of the intranet, over the company's
firewall. When I use Netscape on my desktop, I get a pop-up window where I have
to supply my name and password, and only then do I gave access to the internet.
I suppose that this functionality is not implemented in DOSPPP. Am I right?
How difficult would it be to implement it?

Question: what HTML browsers can I use with DOSPPP/LXTCP. As far as I understood
HV (by D&A Software) is only for WWW/LX. Is this true?

Thanks in advance,
Paulo

Ok, it seems like people are more interested in the components than in the
whole package.  I've come up with some prices that I feel are ok for the
individual items.  It's all in US dollars, and it all includes shipping
(in the US).

I'm open to counter-offers.  I'd like to sell these things to a palmtopper
here on the list, so if you like the item but don't like the price just
drop me a line and we'll talk!

The system:

--200LX. It's a 2MB unit, and has no hinge crack that I can see.  $320

--Newton keyboard.  It has the original zippered case and the keyboard
cable is uncut; I've made a little adaptor (included) that plugs into the
keyboard cable at one end and the LX-to-serial cable at the other.  $100

--Sparcom Drive100 external (serial) 3.5" floppy drive.  This thing cost
me quite a bit, but I don't use it nearly as much as I thought I would.
It's slow, and the batteries don't hold a charge that well, so it's pretty
much confined to the desktop.  It is handy, though, for transferring files
to a desktop machine that doesn't have an open serial port for the link
cable. Original docs, connector cable, and AC adaptor included. $130

--Original LX user's guide and quick start guide, LX-to-serial cable, and
Intellisync software.  Included in the LX price, or $35 separate.

Unfortunately, Avi is right and you aren't. There are definitely
viruses out there which do not require an executable file in an
attachment to become active. If you don't believe, search the
Bugtraq archives.

The good news is that the HP 200 LX is unaffected by this type
of virus because you must run mail clients such as Outlook
Express for the virus to be able to come alive.

Ulrich,

I am admittedly not up on all the latest literature,
but I would think a virus of that type would be a
result of exploiting a bug in a given mail program.

Mail programs should not execute anything without the
users permission.  This is one of the many reasons why
there are such heavy security restrictions on Java
applets (no file IO on clients machine, etc).  Granted
java is not a mail program, but becuase it executes on
the clients machine the creators gave it very limited
access on the client-side machine.

Interesting to know that there are mail programs that
are inadvertantly allowing this behavior.  I will keep
this in mind and thanks for the info.

There was a widely publicized bug in the way MIME headers are handled,
about a year or so ago.  MIME is a popular format for e-mail attachments.
Some mail programs, if they received an e-mail with an attachment that had
a very long name, would experience a buffer overrun and execute code found
in the long MIME filename and compromise the security of the system,.
This could occur just from the user viewing the message and then (as I
recall) going to the File menu.  As far as I know, no actual viruses ever
took advantage of this bug, and most e-mail clients and e-mail servers now
handle MIME buffer overflows properly.

None of this applies to the 200LX, really.

What are the differences between 200LX and 100LX?

I only found out that the screen of the 100LX has no 60 zoom mode (only 80/40).
Is this true?

I would recommend the Nokia 7110. You can store 1000 names and for each
name you can store 5 numbers pr. name. "Normal", "Mobil", "Home",
"Office and "Fax". You can also add 3 textfields: "Email",
"Postaddress" and "Note"

You can ofcourse add 5 fax numbers or 5 officenumbers. The maximum is
5. The phone also stores a lot of calender notes (not sure how many).

It stores about 60 sms messages too. Batterycapacity is not bad. My
best is 60 hours with about 1 hour calltime.

I miss todolist and I still need the Hplx. And maybe a Rex for my
notebooks, but it is a great phone. It works via irda with the Hplx. I
have heard rumores that the Us model will have todolist and not the
autoejectslider because they will injure themself over there if they
have a autoeject :-))

No.  Zoom modes are the same.  The differences are (among others):

1 Pocket quicken on the 200LX
2 Lair of Squid and Hearts & Bones games on the 200
3 Datacard display and some cosmetic changes in the 200LX database apps
4 Newer PC card drivers in the 200

There are probably more, but until I have another cup of coffee and get
my brain in gear, I can't think of 'em...   8-)

Not only have I never had a virus on my 200lx, I've never had one on
my home computer even though I'm probably more at risk than most.

I often download pirated "warez" to try out programs before I buy
them.  Ninety percent of the software I've bought in the past 5 or
so years was tried out with downloaded pirate versions first.  Also
there was at least 20 times more that I downloaded and chose not to
buy. (Not because I stole it.  I didn't like it or find it useful)

I've been told that this puts me at great risk, but I've been using
Norton Antivirus (and before that, IBM antivirus) for years and
updating weekly but never a virus.

The FAQ maintained at David Sargeant's website lists the differences.  There's
      no mention of a change in the zoom mode.



Check it out at: http://www.hplx.net/faq.faq.html#04



Look for "Q. What's the difference between the 100LX and the 200LX?"

Comments: To: Chris Lott <rclott@ro.com>
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I've used several NiCad and NiMH batteries and my 6mb/2x 200LX has been running
for the past year on a set of Olympus Camedia B-01E 1.2v 1450mAh AA's I found at
a camera shop for $24 (pkg of 4).

Several people may have already mentioned that the charge/discharge
characteristics for NiMH differ from NiCad, and I've seen quite a variance even
between NiMH types (tried about 4-6 brands).

Most of my earlier NiMH's took a long time to charge (they typically took
upwards of 12-16 hours, including a LONG stall time of about 3-4 hours) and gave
me between 7-10 hours of ABC/LX measured usage time.

Note that ABC/LX usage measurements will vary greatly depending on how you use
the LX. Sitting with the LX in continuous use (ie, writing a term paper) will
result in longer measured usage times than if the LX were powered on and off
throughout the day.  This is obviously because the LX is using battery life even
while powered off (and is not measured by ABC/LX during those times).  An LX
with fully charged cells that sits on the shelf for a few weeks will show
drained batteries even tho ABC/LX shows zero usage time.

My recent experience is relative to my style of usage and the Olympus cells I
have now.

I charge them always in the LX ... that's the reason I got them (and ABC/LX) to
minimize the attention I need to give my LX.  Also puts less stress on the
battery cover.

I set ABC/LX to start charging at 2.35v (I use Mack's killmsg program to cut
down the battery warnings), but often manually initiate charging at just under
2.40v because my LX is plugged in at my desk at work every day anyway for 9
hours, and I hate being caught with an empty tank.

I set ABC/LX to stop charging after a stall time of 6 hours, or a peak voltage
of 2.90v.  I know that Mack and others have mentioned that this appears to be on
the low side, but I still get up to 12 hours of usage time (best time was 13 hrs
when I was using it continuously for classes, studying and writing papers)
despite the low peak voltage, which the LX usually reaches after about 8 hours.
I've rarely had the Olympus cells hit the 6 hr stall time ceiling, and the
charge curve is usually continously upward till it reaches 2.90v.

I could probably eke out some more usage time on the cells by upping the peak
voltage, but the current usage times are good (for me) and the advantage of not
having the LX tied up in a 16 hour charge is a big plus to me.  Plus a longer
charge time generates a lot of heat and that was a concern.

Since class ended, I'm typically only charging about once every 1.5-2  weeks
(between 7-11 hrs ABC/LX usage time).  During class, I'm sure it was at least
once a week, with usage times typically at 11 hrs.

After a year, I'm still on the first set of cells (two in a package of four ...
I gave Al Kind my other two).  Charge characteristics haven't changed in all
that time.  By comparison, the other NiMH cells I've tried seemed to "run down"
in the sense that longer times were required to reach peak (or stall limit).
But to be fair, those brands I always charged aggressively, usually pushing past
a 5 hour stall time to reach the peak voltage (which got harder to reach with
time).

Despite the aggressive charging, the ABC/LX measure usage times weren't
significantly better (if at all) with those cells than with my conservatively
charged Olympus'.

I also bought a set of 1500 mAh cells from a list member, mostly as a backup
set, but haven't seen the need to replace the exiting ones yet.

I'm experimenting with a few pairs of NiMH re-chargable batteries.
They are 1400mAH, 1.24 volt rated.  Bought them online around Christmas
time, folowed a link posted by someone here.

What kind of experience have any of you had with this chemistry
battery?  Any tips or comments on them?  How long do you typically go
between charges?  What voltages do you charge them to?  Declare them
expired?  I'm using ABC/LX...  any tips using it with NiMH?  Any
recommendations for charging them outside the LX - in a standalone
charger, for example?

Lately, people have begun to realize that HTML-enabled e-mail *can* contain
embedded malicious code (using Java, Javascript or VBScript hidden in a
comment.) which is activated by opening (even in the "preview" pane) the
message. In general, you want to disable scripts from running in your e-mail
or newsgroups to circumvent this.

These are specific to a given mail client (so you probably aren't a likely
target, Avi). What they do is rely on the same "buffer overflow" that so
many other attacks rely on. You send a Subject line which is longer than the
recipient's mail program is designed to handle, it misses it and loads  the
whole subject into memory, running past the end of the allotted space and
overwriting other data *or code*. Toward the end of the subject, the perp
has embedded a binary instruction sequence, which is then executed. As
buffer overflow problems are common programming errors (didn't check the
string length before moving it into storage) this kind of problem can arise
in virtually any program, triggered by virtually any kind of file (imagine a
graphic file where the image size is deliberately understated). The Morris
Internet Worm of 1988 relied, in part, on a buffer overflow in the UNIX
sendmail program. Web sites are vulnerable to buffer overflows hitting CGI
scripts.

to do anything on a computer requires executing a series of
instructions. This series of instructions is called a program, a macro,
a script, or some other name that often indicates something about the
environment the series of instructions expect or need to function
effectively.

A virus 'does' something on a computer therefore it executes a series of
instructions, i.e. it is a program. it executes. Let's not get too picky
about terminology when it doesn't matter!

there are several ways to 'execute' a program on a computer. All require
some environment that will 'launch' the program and execute the series
of instructions. One of the best ways to reduce the risk of an unwanted
virus is to avoid environments that are sloppy in their security. Java
in a Browser environment is very secure this way. MS Office in Windows
is very sloppy in its default configuration.

Most of the highly publicized virus programs lately have been macros (a
convenience program run in an application environment) that expect to
find a Microsoft Office environment and depend upon a convenient
autostart feature. This feature can make Email appear seamless with
other Office document types when used as intended.

If this autostart feature is turned off, then the attachment has to be
manually separated from the email and then it has to be 'launched' - in
Windows you do this by 'opening' the detached file.

Keep in mind that Browsers also run programs to help display web sites
or to handle forms and such things. These are usually reasonably secure
as the only machine access the Browsers usually let them have is to a
cookies file.

There are some simple steps that will help you avoid unwanted
intervention in your computer: (1) don't run Windows or Office, (2) turn
off automatic attachment handling features, (3) trash messages from
unknown sources, (4) make sure you have good backups so you can recover
if something does happen, (5) be very suspicious of any messages that
are from unfamiliar sources or have attachments.

If you are really paranoid, do all your messaging and downloading and
testing on a machine that is isolated and can be easily re-initialized
from scratch.

But I think people worry too much about this. A bit of reasonable
prudence is all I have found necessary.

My "Palmtop Adventure" page at http://www.hplx.net/hardware.apa.big.html
has instructions on swapping keyboards.

I had that happen on my old LX.
Take an xacto knife and carefully lift a corner of the keyboard mask.
Then use your fingers to carefully pull it all the way off.  Once you
get under there I think you'll see what the problem is. The space bar is
connected to a little plastic tab on both sides. Your space bar has
undoubtedly broken off one of those tabs. I was able to reconnect mine
with a dab of hot glue from my wifes hotglue gun. If I remember
correctly, I think I initially tried superglue but it wouldn't stay
stuck to the plastic. The hot glue worked like a champ though.

HTH,
Steve

Is there a DOS for 200lx or Win CE browser that supports cut and paste
of a numeric table on a web page into the built in spreadsheet?

Are there any third party browsers that might support this if the built in
Win CE browser or spreadsheet does not do it? GeoWorks perhaps

Steve,
Thanks for the tip. Both of my tabs are off and the
superglue did not work. Maybe I will try the glue gun.

Actually, had my first virus infected disk, well, disks within the last
few months.  It was a floppy boot virus, if I recall.  And it came on
disks I purchased from someone on this list - their old version of MS
Word 5.5.  That person did not no of the virus.

You can be sure I was surprised as hell, when that Norton virus message
appeared just after inserting the floppy.  Norton cleaned it and the
other disks in the set.

But I do have a more enjoyable "virus" story.  I had probably recently
installed some HP software from a floppy to my hp vis the desktop.  Went
about my busines forgetting about the floppy.  Somewhere along the line
I had to reboot.  I got this awful, gutteral message.  Nothing worked to
eliminate it.  I rebooted.  Samething.  I ran thru the bios and
rebooted.  Same thing.  I could not boot my computer without this
message appearing.

I will ask my German friends to fill in the blanks.  I was getting the
"this is not a bootable floppy, replace disk and press any key" message
but in GERMAN!!!!  It was a copy of Accis from Tom Rundel and the floppy
was a GERMAN floppy with that dos mesage appearing in German. (g)  I had
forgotten there was a disk in the a: drive.  And certainly that it was a
GERMAN disk!

It became funny about 10 minutes after the total panic!!! (G)

You responded to the quote I made of Questor Jones in my
own reply. I never thought about web-based email in my own
reply, but you are correct.

I think that is correct too. The known bugs were plugged, but
not the unknown ones :) Not knowing them won't stop these
viruses from their pernicious activity :) . No real reason
to get into panics but one cannot sleep on the watch,
either.

I agree that the likelihood of being attacked in my own
mail system (mostly Post/LX) is rather slim to none. The
point of the message Questor put in was that no virus can
attack by merely opening the email. I posted about the one
I knew. You added another. I believe there was an
implication in Ulrich Boche's post that there is another
"flavor" yet.

Oh how much fun! :-( ...

Thanks Jon for the edification. I am not sure I feel better
knowing more about all this :) but it is interesting at
least.

I think you'd agree that common sense behaviour helps stem
most of the problems in a practical sense. If one open
one's shirt and scribbles in large letters on one's chest -
HIT ME, VIRUS - I WANT TO BE HIT! - then such a request
might be answered.

So, in ANY email system, even ours, don't assume anything.
Assume that attachments may contain som undesirable
payload. Sure the architecture in the palmtop makes it
unlikely, but maybe someone (even a reader here) is now
"inspired" to do the "deed" and will create a palmtop
virus. So without panic and ridiculousness, just be
careful, don't assume the world is rosy, work on it, and
watch what you are doing. Check carefully on email you do
not know the author, set your emails systems to not
automatically open everything and play all the music,
animated gifs, etc. Watch for "html attachments" containing
Javascript or Java. basically, educate yourself and enjoy
life without too much paranoia. :-)

Chris,

Fantastic work!!

I wish I had more spare time to join in the fun!

Let me know if there's anything I/we can do. I have the REX5.

Thanks!

Not surprising. The manufacturing methods vary quite a bit,
as do the the qualities of materials, etc etc. I wish that
batteries were more uniform.

Very interesting point. It also observes that ABC/LX is a
program, and measures things when it is active, i.e. when
the cpu is running the program. The depletion you note does
not see to activate the cpu, so no program is running, no
ABC/LX and hence no measurements.

I wonder is this explains the occasional customer whose
batteries give very low service time, despite using the
best batteries and progrmas to aid in charging...

And less stress on the owner, too :-) ...

a lot of the energy pushed into the batteries at peak and
close to peak voltages tends to turn into heat, not charge
anyway.

I cannot imagine that an hour of pushing the batteries from
2.90V upwards would provide really significant additional
charge.

What about jacking the top number from 2.90 to 2.95V? See
if you can then get a stall. Supposedly the stall point is
where the battery is filled up to the max, or almost.

As long as the battery keeps charging mostly, the heat is
not an big issue. Once the stall is achieved, the battery
is really full and more current will just become mostly to
heat.

I agree with you that maybe you could get a bit more time
from the batteries, but it might be measured in (few)
minutes, not hours.

Thanks for the informative post!

On the other hand, the simplicity of the O/S also limits
the services it can provide. The opposite of this statement
is not necessarily true: See WinCE - large, cumbersome and

I based my price on what seems to be the going rate on Ebay, and keep in

to offers.  I'd like to sell it to a lister, so please drop me a line if
you're interested!

Good morning one and all,

I have been searching around trying to find plastic cases for pcmcia/PC
cards.
Sandisk and others do not offer them directly via their webpage catalogs. I
tried contacting Scott Moore but have not heard back, so he must be out
of town or on a well deserved vacation. Anyone on the list have any
resources for these elusive little storage units? Thanks.

I put a Megahertz pcmcia 14.4 modem card in my 200LX, loaded up Goin' Postal
and within 10 minutes was sending and receiving email. One question to those
who have used or are currently using Goin' Postal - Is there any way to toss
the headers from every message upon receipt while keeping the sender,
subject, date and body of the message? This would sure reduce the size of the
message files. Getting between 70 and 100 (sometimes more) emails a day
I have noticed that a lot of the time there are 20 or more lines of text in
the
header and one or two lines in the message body. If anyone has a suggestion
on how to strip the headers (routing info) it would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Dear Lxers;

I'm interested in using 200lx as Internet terminal without lan card or
modem.

My conceptual idea and configuration is below.

200LX <--(Serial)--> PPP SERVER(WIN98 or Linux) <--(Lan)-->Internet

Initially, I tried to setup win98 as PPP server but failed.

As second try, I'm studying the way to setup Linux as PPP server.

Of course, PPP module for 200LX can be found at SUPER site.

dosppp and lxtcp package can be used in that purpose.

Am I right?

Are there any comments or tips in this try?

The motivation to start this work is that I don't have lan-card nor
modem....:)

Well, this is my first mail to this list and gook luck to me, please.

Sincerely,

Hi Bob, Nice to talk to you again. The cases I have for the PCMCIA cards are
not actually hard plastic cases. I know which ones you are talking about but
the ones I have are a soft protector type. They look like vinyl and have a soft
cloth interior and a Velcro flip over to close them. If you are interested let
me know and I will see how many I have.   Thanks again!    Scott

A lot depends on the brand of NiMH cells.  Mine reached 3 V the first
couple of charge cycles, but now stall at 2.86...

True

Again, this may depend on the manufacturer.  The Panasonic NiMH
databook shows charge curves for different rates and temperatures.  At
low rates (still higher then in the 200LX) they appear dead flat for
about 1/3 or more of the charge cycle.  Another factor is the LX ADC
has only ~27mV resolution, so when the graph shows a stall, the voltage
may still be rising.

In which case they may be able to safely take quite a bit more charge.

The 100lx and 200lx are nearly the same from the user's point of
view.  They both have the same zoom modes.  With the 200lx they
added Quicken and Laplink and they spruced up the screens of a few
of the built-in apps.  They also made a 2 meg and later a 4 meg
model available.  The color was also changed.

As far as I'm aware, those are the only differences.

By the way, if you only could get 80x25 or 40x16 and couldn't get
60x18 you're probably in MDA mode instead of CGA text mode.  I've
run across a couple of programs that leave it that way.  You can fix
that by typing MODE CO80.  That restores the CGA text mode.

I think so. As long as the LX is unplugged and unused, the crystal is still
humming to battery power, and that usage is not "captured" by any measuring
program.  A serious complaintant can test the battery capacity against ABC/LX
only by continuously running the batteries to exhaustion, something that's
neither easy, safe nor convenient.

>What about jacking the top number from 2.90 to 2.95V? See

As I said, the current usage times (1.5-2 weeks between charge) and charging
times (about 8 hrs) suits me just fine.  Longer charge times usually means
having to interrupt the charge, since I'm rarely in one place that long.  True,
the charging cycle will properly resume when the unit is plugged back in, but I
got tired of fussing with the screen contrast whenever it turned out that the
cycle was incomplete.

Convenience is what it's all about, and I think everyone has a situation that's
probably unique to them.  People who sleep for 12 hours may be perfectly happy
with a 12 hour charge cycle.

Thanks.  Any amount of extra battery life would not compensate for the
inconvenience of a longer charge (in my case).

ABC/LX is a great product and it admirably fulfills the role for which I bought
it.  There were a lot of other alternatives, but this one (in concert with the
right choice of batteries) made my battery experience one less thing I have to
think about.

I had a chance to work on Derek's code. I'm not much of a programmer,
but I was thoroughly inpressed how well the code was laid out. There's a
central 'core engine' that reads in a PDF file. Then, with that engine,
you can put on whatever frontend you want. For a while, my company was
taking Derek's stuff to make a Windows PDF viewer. We needed a viewer
that could handle files that had more than 32,000 pages (which was
Acrobat 3's limitation at the time). The biggest challenge we were going
to handle was how to draw Adobe Type 1 and Type 3 fonts on a Windows
screen.

Unfortunatly, we were forced to drop the project due to other demands
and never finished it.

Bob,

I have no idea where to get the little hard plastic cases.  However I do
have a suggestion.  Both my daughter, when teenagers, worked for a place
called "Things Remembered".  The store sold 20 or so different metal
business card cases. Several of these were a perfect fit for a flashdisk
card. A couple of brands even had felt liners.

Has anyone used gps on an lx before?  I was reading up on the software and
it says you need maps in pcx format, but I couldn't find them on the market.
I admit I don't know much about gps though.

I do not use GP, but I agree, the size would be reduced
quite a bit.

I clip at about 200 to 250 messages per day, and the effect
is amazing. Add to this extensive quoting of the headers,
the footers, the signature lines bla bla and you have a
little monster on your hands.

But it seems to me that it would have to be done on the
email server, not in the Palmtop. In the palmtop, the
program that does the stripping actually physically has to
read all the email message, headers and all, then decide
what to strip and strip it, but by then, you already d/l
the info and the headers.

A real conundrum. I believe GP has a junk filter built-in,
eliminating messages that are deemed junk. But still the
message is downloaded, then the decision is made that it is
junk on the palmtop.That comes close to what you want, no?
(Steve, please chime in...)

In Post/LX, we provide a filter that will route the junk
message to a specific folder which you can then summarily
wipe out without reading, if you want.

One more difference: The Datacomm in the 100LX is all
graphics and incredibly slow to update, thus making it
nearly unusable. They rewrote it (Lotus did, actually)
andin the 200LX it is Version 2.0. I do not know what it is

Interesting point. Also replace the batts and let them
deplete without load would show much higher time before
they reach 2.35V for example.

Yes, what a silly location for the temp gauge, right near
the battery charging circuitry! I think this is one of the
few faults in the Palmtop design, no? (ooops,... this will
start a huge theological discussion! :-) ...)

ROFL, charging themselves AND the batteries. I think that's
the new twist in batteries, "They charge in tune with your
own circadian cycle!"... Hmmm. Circadian Batteries -
special charger, high prices, same old stuff inside, but
you pay more for the new name, new ads campaign, and new
packaging :-( ...

The datacomm in the 100lx also has speed problems above
9600 baud iirc. not sure if its because of the software or the

Lots of people have used GPS on their LX, particularly for data
logging via the serial port from the GPS.

The LX screen isn't conducive, IMO, to very nice maps, so I never
bother to use the 200LX for such things, preferring my Libretto or
my Vaio, both of which have high grade screens that make things
easy to follow.

Given the good maps that current GPS contain, I find that I never
bother to link my GPS to any of my machines anymore, except to
upload (routes) and download (waypoints and tracks), as the maps in
the GPS itself are easier to glance at and understand. Trying to
read a map on an LX in a moving car strikes me as a downright
dangerous occupation...

I would assume that there is no technical difficulty running a
`moving map' program on the 200 if you can find one that only
needs an 80185, but I don't think that it is likely to be a very
satisfying experience, i.e. I would _never_ bother to do it, even
though I have all of the necessary hardware to do so...

I have been using LXGps written by Greg Rhenda found on the Super Site.
The maps have to converted from another source for use with this fine
program.

I use topographic maps in the field to help me fix the position of
mineral deposits or fossils. The way I handle the conversion of these
maps is time consuming but works. I scan the maps into my laptop
computer, adjust the contrast and brightness and convert them to a
black and white PCX file. After all that I can place them on a CF card
in my laptop. I take the CF card to the palmtop, transfer them to the
LXGps directory and calibrate the map.

Depending on the type of maps you need, for instance street maps, there
is a program known as Street Atlas USA. I imagine there is a simular
product available for other countries if that is what your need. These
maps are more easily converted.

I use the Delorme Tripmate GPS. This is a very funtional device and
connects to the 200LX with ease through the serial cable that come with
the connectivity kit.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I am new to the group but have used the 200LX for years. I am glad to
have found this group. I am enjoying the discussions. It was in another
news group, comp.sys.palmtops that I met a number of people on the list
who provided reassurance and guidance regarding my wish to make a
purchase from Thaddeus. To those who did, I give you my thanks.

I just bought a 200LX 64mb DS palmtop from Thaddeus and want to say
that this is one really nice machine. The extra speed really helps. This is
the best new purchase I have made. I should have upgraded my 4mb 200LX years
ago. I will have to upgrade it to at least double speed with 8mb sometime in
the future. It would be nice to have DS backup to my new DS machine.

Folks,

I have a desire to be able to print a couple of sheets of notes every
Tuesday. These are tossed at the end of the evening. Not having much
money I can't afford a HP 340 Deskjet with IR adapter.

I though the HP 82240B IR printer would work. I picked one up on Ebay,
cheap and d/l the shareware program to make it work with my 200lx.  Not
good enough.

I then picked up a older POS printer the DPU-411. With the dip switches
I could make it print so so from the 200lx. But the paper is very hard
to find.

Just recently I picked up a older Thermal printer that can use regular
fax paper. This is an IBM PC Compact printer (1983!) still new in the
box.

I set the internal apps to com1 1200b 8 N 1 per the manual. Standard
200lx cable to null modem to printer. Thinks print but some lines get
messed up and  others are partly omitted.

So I need pointers to info on Serial printers and serial printing from
the 200lx.  Any ideas?

The printer is most likely using the handshaking lines of the serial
port to control data flow. I used to have a brother typewriter/printer
and it couldn't keep up at 1200 so it used handshaking. You need
to identify what lines the printer uses to control data and make
sure these are connected to the appropriate lines on the lx. You
might want to invest a few dollars in the little gadget that radio
shack sells to show the status of various signal lines, it isn't
expensive but helps alot in these situations.

Did you ever solve this problem? I assume that "Scramble" is
checked on the Global screen. Have you tried a reboot after
setting this feature? Does the line in autoexec.bat that starts
Buddy call the right buddy.env file? The format of the line in
my autoexec.bat is:

c:\bin\buddy.com c:\bin\buddy.env

I can't answer you question, but you may have a better chance
to get an answer if you ask if they have drivers for DOS, and
if so, will these drivers run on an 8086 or 186 processor? I
doubt many CD-ROM manufacturers know what a 200LX is.

In Japan, three kinds of high capacity NiH battery are available.

Sanyo     HR-3US   1600mAh min 1500mAh
Toshiba   TH-3G    1550mAh min 1500mAh
Panasonic HHR-3HPS 1400mAh   +-  50mAh

I tried them.
My conclusion is TH-3G is best choice for HP200LX.
Panasonic's is apparently less capacity than others.
HR-3US is difficult to decide the time for exchange,
Because at the end of the discharge, the voltage goes down suddenly.
When I used HR-3US, I lost data three times for the sudden death.

My HP200LX is 96MB X2 upgraded with 220MB Sandisk ATA card.
Using TH-3G, my HP200LX works about 12hours(the data of battlog).
I re-charge every week with Panasonic's HiH & NiCd charger.
I also use TAMIYA(famous model kit maker)'s discharger.
This is for the small race car using AA batteries.

Bye.

It is very nice to have in my car. I always know where I am now.
I used to get lost a lot before.

If I whant to go somewhere. I pick up my hp200lx and start lxgps.
I locate the place I whant to go to on the map and by doing that I get
the coordinates for that place.
Now there never will be any doubt if I am on the right track.

Use Paint Shop Pro or similar to convert and process Your maps in
desired format (be sure to save in the PCX version0 format if You save
them as PCX. )

Look at
http:\\www.gpss.co.uk
They have a lot of maps.
My other maps I have scaned and processed in Paint Shop Pro for size
and apperance.

Go for it. It has changed my life as much as the hp200lx did.

You have to add a    POPFirst=1    line into the relevant Mailbox

To the contrary, I found that the two such programs available have
outstanding appearance on the LX when drawing maps.  I'm referring
to LXGPS and CGAGPS.  There certainly is the readability concern,
and then at night you would be hard pressed to see it at all.
I have an arrangement, though I've never used while driving
(really) with two velcro strips on the center of my steering
wheel.  On the top of my HP, there are two matching strips that
I often use with the special palmtop light I bought years back.
But besides the hazard of using it while driving, I would be
terrified of the cable entanglement possibilities while steering!

I have observed that while CGA graphics normally appear "klunky"
and unattractive on a desktop monitor, when you run them on the
small palmtop screen, they look accetpable.  In my mind, what
matters for this is the pixel resolution per inch (or cm).  Of
course, with the smaller screen of the LX you get less information
on a screen than with a VGA, for example.  But I find it hard to
fault the appearance of CGA on this size screen - only the amount
of information.

Regarding these maps, it isn't clear at first glance whether they are

Interesting, I use Sanyo HR-3US and didn't experience any problem on my
hp200lx 96 DS and a 128MB CFlash Sandisk.

I set

   spd31.exe /M /C /B

which means the hp200lx switches off at 2 Volt. I replace the batteries
and that's it.

Currently, no.  The problem is, GP (as of V4beta) supports two files that
deal with the headers - the filter and routing files.  In these you can
put the name of any header you wish to act on.  I suppose I could pre
parse both files.

What about an external program, say GPSHRINK, which would process an
entire mailbox (or all mailboxes)?  It could clean the headers, perform
offline compression, possibly delete or only compress message older than
a set date?  It would then be able to do it during quiet times, such as
during recharging.

Yes, GP has a filter file which acts on the headers and can automate
whether a message is downloaded, skipped, or deleted.  The message
isn't read at that point, only the header.  It's only read if the filter
says it should be downloaded.

GP4 (in beta) also supports a routing file.  It uses much the same
syntax as the filter but acts offline and moves messages to user
defined mailboxes.

This is much like GP's "routing file".  The "filter file" does this
prior to downloading the message.  (there is a penalty, in that should
you download a message the header has to be read a second time - there
is no POP command to "skip header, get body")

Hi Natalie and List

Please check http://www.esafe.com/csrt/hoaxes.html for a great site for
Virus and Hoax info.

It even has a nice graphical representation of virus infections by category.

According to this site the Budwiser virus is a hoax.  Please check for

Well, since it dealing with an email server, it goes into
POST.CFG, in the section describing that emailbox. Those
sections are in the form of:

IBMNET
POPFirst=1

ATT
popfirst=1

etc. You will see parameters in thatose sections like
SMTP=xxxx.xxxx.xxxx or Login= Password= etc.

The syntax is shown above.

This parameter tells Post/LX to login to the POP3 server
first, and obtain email. This also means Post/LX will send
the login and password to identify and authenticate the
user. In some cases, this process also lets the user relay
email through the SMTP server, since the ISP knows the
customer. This is not a guarantee, though. Some ISPs are
strict. My own ISP opens a 10 minute window in which I can
relay, though in actuality is feels more like 3 minutes.

Ok, but then you have to perform another read (same
session? another session?) if the header is ok?

The "penalty" is in GP, not Post/LX. I am not sure it is a
penalty - my junk mail load has stedily increased and my
distaste of it is growing. Especially the Opt-ins and the
"You receive this email because you signed up. to be
removed..." and there is no removal, only a confirmation of
your email address and MORE crap.

In Post/LX there is a header only download. Combined with
the TopLines= parameter, I can d/l headers only and maybe a
few of the first lines of the junk. If it is junk, I can
delete it DIRECTLY on the SERVER, without haveing to deal
with that piece of ... again.

I wish my ISPs would employ extensive junkmail filters and
just nix the stuff at the server level. The more such
schemes proliferate, the less it would be worth sending the
junk, because it would simply not arrive. There is plenty
of smarts that can be built into email servers to recognize
the crap from the good stuff.

Headers are read with the POP3 "TOP" command, which is used to only
read the header (and optionally a portion of the message).  The message
itself (along with the headers) is read with the POP3
"RETR" command.  What POP3 needs is a "BODY" command, which could skip the
headers you already read with TOP.

If you are not filtering or using "headers-only" mode, then GP just does a
RETR command and puts the mail in the mailbox.  Otherwise, GP does a TOP
command to read the header.  If a filter rule indicates that the message
is one you want to download, GP then does a RETR on the message.  If the
message was to be deleted, GP does a DELE (no RETR, the message body
is never read).  If the message was to be skipped, GP just sticks the
header in the mailbox (allowing you to RETR or DELE it on a future
connection).  Raw message headers in GP are self-cleaning, meaning that
if GP goes online and finds the message is now gone, the header will be
deleted from the mailbox automatically.

> The "penalty" is in GP, not Post/LX.

In a way I meant that, but it's not entirely true (this is based on my
understanding of how Post/LX works from a prior conversation with either
Avi or Andreas).  AFAIK, POST/LX doesn't use TOP - it always RETR's the
message.

There is a penalty either way you do it, GP and POST/LX choose to incur
the penalty in different ways.

GP takes the penalty in seeing the header a second time (once via TOP,
then via RETR) if the message ends up getting downloaded.  If the message
is never read, GP wins by never downloading the message body.

AFAIK, Post/LX always downloads the message (RETR).  If the message is
tossed, Post/LX paid a penalty in downloading the now unread message
body.  OTOH, if the user really wanted the message then Post/LX wins by
avoiding getting the headers via TOP.

> "You receive this email because you signed up. to be

Yes, very annoying!  Naturally, I've never signed up for any of
these.  The removal is either an email address that bounces, or a stupid
web page where they want to show you ads.  Grr...

Hmm, this is contrary to what Andreas described.  If this is true, then GP
and Post/LX are doing pretty much the same thing (using TOP and RETR).

In a way this would be nice, but then they lose the clasification that the
telcos share (I forget the name, but basically as long as they ignore all
content they can't be held responsible for illegal stuff passing
through them.  As soon as they start to examine the content of messages
and filter them, they lose this protection).  This doesn't even get into
the case of junkmailers sueing the ISPs for interfering with their
"business"..

There is a file on S.U.P.E.R. you can download.  (food.gdb) and then you
could either use Smartclip to cut and paste the records into a Memo file and

The original C drive on the HP200lx becomes the F drive after rdswap.exe is
run. You need to use the EMS drivers that come with the 32 meg upgrade to
make the file that simulates expanded memory on the 32 meg drive and use the
tremm.exe driver that comes with the 32 upgrade.

Hello All,

I just wanted to let folks here know that after doing some power
measurements today, I found that using the MODE command to speed up
your keyboard repeat rate causes a huge increase in current
consumption during keystrokes as least on my palmtop.

I would like for someone else to independently verify this fact before
saying that it is a for sure power hog.

I am using the command in my AUTOEXEC.BAT as below:

  mode con: rate=32 delay=1

I also found that using BUDDY adds a small amount of extra current
draw during keystrokes as well.

I tested it by going into MEMO, holding down a key and using an analog
current meter which is located on my DC power supply. The power supply
is set at 3.0v and is being fed directly into the battery compartment.

Cheers,
 Mack

I use the identical command in AUTOEXEC.BAT. What does it
mean that the current increases dramatically? I have o way
to test it electrically. Any implication on battery life?
How much? I usually get 9-11 hours on the green NiMH.

I believe the classification is as carriers vs. publishers.
AOL is a publisher, because they DO LOOK at your email and
somehow reserve the right to stop certain things from going
through. Telcos are just "mules" they have no idea what
goes through...

Butit seems to me if the ISPs do not employ the filters,
just make them available to their customers to employ, then
they are immune. They remain carriers, and the junkmailers
cannot sue them, only the end-customer for the blockage. I
am sure this will go over like a lead balloon in court :)

The current on my palmtop goes from about 50ma during keystrokes to
90-100ma during keystrokes. When I run Buddy also it goes up to
110-115ma. If you type alot then I would say that it can affect
battery life significantly. I hope it is only my palmtop doing this
and I will be testing it on another palmtop hopefully tomorrow.

 Mack

I'm using SANYO 1500 NMh AA R6 without prob.
Is this the same as Sanyo HR-3US 1600mAh min 1500mAh

Do yu discharge?????  when?
I just rejuice them SLOW every night and they
last the whole next day (about 6 hrs) before
recharge.  They can get as much as 10+ i guess.

Any news on the Morphy One?
Is it out on the mkt?
What is it going for????

This is what my ISP does. Users can filter their mail through procmail.
The ISP also provides procmail recipes to block many known spam houses.
In addition, when a user complains about a spammer, this information is
added to a another recipe which can be included automatically in the
procmailrc file. If an address gets 10 complaints, it is just blocked
period. With all this I still get spam, but it's down to maybe 1 or 2 a
week, which I can tolerate.

Hi,

I am new to the group but have used the 200LX for years. I am glad to
have found this group. I am enjoying the discussions. It was in another
news group, comp.sys.palmtops that I met a number of people on the list
who provided reassurance and guidance regarding my wish to make a
purchase from Thaddeus. To those who did, I give you my thanks.

I just bought a 200LX 64mb DS palmtop from Thaddeus and want to say
that this is one really nice machine. The extra speed really helps. This is
the best new purchase I have made. I should have upgraded my 4mb 200LX years
ago. I will have to upgrade it to at least double speed with 8mb sometime in
the future. It would be nice to have DS backup to my new DS machine.

I have a 64MB, with double speed and a huge disk drive
(3.3V) all of which eats up batteries. I use it about 14
hours a day sometimes more, sometimes less. LOTS of writes
to disk.

I can run on a 96MB DS, and 128MB CFlash Sandisk about 17 - 19 hours.

This sounds very low in my experience.  I am running the "generic lime
green" 1500 mAh NiMHs from Mouser, and I average around 24 hours of run
time.  (My longest ever was 25.8 hours.)  I got similar times from the
DigiKey NiMHs.  Of course maybe our machines are different.  Mine's a
single-speed with 4MB internal and a 24MB CF card always in the slot.

I don't discharge.  I use Battlog in conjunction with some other utilities,
and run the cells down as close as I can get to 2.0V in normal operation.
I then run a full charge cycle on them.  I've been running the generics
since August and have noticed no discernable change in capacity.

It may be that you're not fully charging your cells.  I had that problem
when I first started, and was getting around 10 hours at a time.  Once I
figured out what I was doing wrong and got everything properly adjusted,
the times went way up.

Can't comment on whether the battery models you cited are the same.  No
comment on Morphy One, except that I'm curious to see what they come up
with!

The latest on the project is that it seems to be a little
behind schedule. I recently mailed Akinobu and he told me
that although the prototype should be built soon, the real
thing will be later because of a lack of parts. The
estimated price of the finished article is around $760 (Yen
80,000), although as of yet no overseas companies have been
in touch.

I'll put a copy of the full mail up along with the latest
news at http://games.hplx.net/features/morphyone.htm for
those interested.

Are there any error messages (or anything else) that might
indicate the cause of the problem? Is there any difference
when pressing the blue Memo key and running it by selecting
the icon in Application Manager?

The "&" sign is a marker in the name field to indicate that
the following letter is that application's "hotkey". For
example, "M&emo" indicates that "e" is the hotkey to load
Memo - thus, pressing "e" in Application Manager should run
Memo. Hotkeys are underlined in the names under the icons in
Application Manager. (By the way, "e" is the hotkey for Memo
in my 200LX as well, so that is normal).

You can set hotkeys for applications that you add yourself by
putting a "&" sign in the name field before the letter that
you wish to make the hotkey. Unfortunately, most letters are
already taken up by the built-in apps (like Memo), but this
can be got around by moving your application's icon *before*
those of the built-in apps.

> I cannot ammend this, only the comments field?

That's normal for the built-in apps.

> Is it possible to delete this application and re-instate

Nope. It's hard to tell what might have gone wrong without
more details - you might want to try deleting the
"appmgr.dat" file in C:\_DAT, reboot and see if that helps.
Note that you will lose any changes that you have made to
your Application Manager if you do this.

I hope this was of some help!

The results on my 2x speed 64mb are:

-No typematic mode changes:

             idle   keypress
MEMO         30mA     60mA
DOS prompt   40mA     90mA


-With mode con: rate=3D32 delay=3D1

             idle   keypress
MEMO         30mA     90mA
DOS prompt   40mA    100mA


It looks more like a MEMO (SysMgr?) effect than a general
problem. I wouldn't care much about additional 10mA power
consumption during keypresses in general. However if you do
most of your work under SysMgr, it might have an effect on your
batteries. (30mA additional consumption)

I'd be more concerned about old flash cards. I have a couple of
them which came with the backup units I bought. They constantly
suck additional 60-80mA, resulting in 100-120mA power
consumption on my idle machine.

However my one year old 96mb CF Sandisk card needs *NO*
additional power when idle. After access it goes to sleep
within 1 or 2 seconds.

To leave a "bad" flash card all the time in a palmtop needs as
much power as leaving a 14400 Megahertz XJ modem card always
plugged in. The XJ sucks about 50mA, if the card is configured
for I/O. An unconfigured card uses about 140mA. That means, you
should always have a driver like CIC100 or LXCIC running, if
you keep the modem plugged into the palmtop.

I cannot comment on this, because Buddy is not running on my
german version palmtop.

You could also try deleting c:\_dat\memoed.env  --  if the problem is
only with Memo, that's the most likely problem.  When you restart Memo,
the file should be recreated.

No they are not to be used in LXGPS out of the box. You have to convert =
them to
 .PCX files. Perferably with Paint Shop Pro (30 trial software).
Reduce color to 2-bit and use dither for best apperance and nearest color =
if You like a smal file.
Then save them as .PCX files (save them as V0 .pcx).
You have to calibrate the map Yourself.

spd31.txt, which is part of speed.zip:

   The follow options are available for SPD31.EXE:

      /B - kills the "MAIN BATTERY LOW" message
      /U - kills the "BKUP BATTERY LOW" message
      /C - kills the "CARD BATTERY LOW" message
      /E - kills the "*BATTERY ERROR*" message
      /V - kills the "MAIN BATT VERY LOW" message
      /M - short-circuits the charging related messages

Subject:      Light Sleep and LXTCP efficiency

A while a go I wrote to Rod Whitby about this, but he must be away or busy.

I use LXTCP extensively to up/download email. I find that occaisionally it
stalls during downloads, and even if the timeout delay is set very long,it
often doesnt recover. This is prevalent especially in the afternoons (here
in Israel) when the internet is very busy.

The following is based on feeling and not on any specific tests. My
"feeling" was that packets of info were getting "lost" and LXTCP was
requesing them again and was unable to recover.

Did I mention that I am connecting at 19200 on a single speed palmtop?

I thought that it would be worthwhile to do 2 experiments together:

1. I would deny the palmtop light sleep during online sessions. No dozing off
while at work! Using LXSTAT I disabled light sleep before dialing and
reenabled it after hanging up.

2. The DOSPPP package used by LXTCP is designed for an 8086 XT. Why not down
load the source code and recompile it for an 80816 (Using Borland C++ 3.1)
This reduced the size of epppd from 45638 bytes to 44406 bytes. I then
decided to go the "whole hog" and recompile the package using all the speed
optimizing parameters that BC allowed me. This resulst in epppd being 47830
bytes. This is the version that I decided to test.

The result is that I have had no more stalling problems since. Not once!

Before I get a flood of messages from list members asking me for copies of
LXTCP compiled specifically for a palmtop, I should check with Tony Lopez,
the copyright implications.

Actually appmgr.dat will destroy the applications menu with
any additions made to it in private programs disappearing.
Not sure this will fix the problem with Memo
misfunctioning. I suspect his problem is with a corrupted
MEMOED.ENV.

Hallo !

I am using an older digital camera, dc50 from kodak, which does photograph on flashcards. THe pictrures are saved in a special formt, which can be converted using a  programm (Kodak offers version for Win95/98, Win31 and Mac) to standard
grafic formats like tiff or jpg.
I wonder ifgthere is any tool for the hp200 (or a general XT runnable freeware porgramm) so I can convert and preview the files on my hp200 (the kodak dc50 does not have a LCD Dsiplay to preview the pictures)


Any idea?

But what would you aim the filter at???  I don't know everyone who is
going to write to me. For instance, today, some guy from this list wrote
me about calorie/gram data since he could not post a reply to the HPLIST
(email address problems).  I appreciated receiving it.  How would I not
wind up screening out that.  Or the time an old friend from Chicago sent
an email to a number of folks with my name - she did find ME!!! (G)

So I would have no idea how or whom to filter out.  But I'm very tired
of receiving email about my immediate new credit rating, that cruise I
have now won 12 times, at least, and the cd-rom which contains my name
and millions of others which I can use to generate my own spam!  And
frankly, (here goes a flame producer) I did not know there were any
Russian BABES!!! (gd&r)

Try deleting the c:\_dat\memoed.env file.  You may have to restore some
stuff like printer settings or format or font size but the file will be
recreated when you try reopening Memo.

If that does not work, you may also need to delete c:\_dat\appmgr.dat
file but you will lose any stuff you have installed in the &manager.  So
first copy any critical applications and their settings by pen/paper or
if cut/paste works to some other file for a while.

good luck

cclxpop does this if you decide to give it a try. You have the option to keep

You must not have the latest version of spd31.exe.  I just downloaded it =

the
features of Mack's killmsg program as well as a keyboard buffer expander =

Don't forget that a PCMCIA or Compact Flash card with adapter will drop
right in and run in a 200LX... no drivers needed as with the 100LX.  Seems
to me there are a couple other "fine points" like that as well.

I used to use MODE to set the typematic rate, but found it pretty
worthless because most apps on the palmtop (like the built-in apps) can't
keep up with it -- I'd hit backspace to delete a few words, for instance,
and it would keep backspacing for a few seconds after I'd let up on the
key.  Of course, that might also be a result of having my keystroke buffer
expanded, but it's still irritating.  Is there any way to speed up the
keyboard repeat rate without producing that kind of unwanted side-effect?

Seems there are two issues: Time to d/l stuff and space to
keep it.

Time to d/l is spent in any case, no? Unless you figured
out a tricky way to peek over and see the stuff, decide
about it and dump it, all without downloading into the
palmtop, a process that takes time.

The second issue is space. Removing headers sure saves LOTS
of space. But then the process adds more time to processing
because you have to check on it, and decide it, and then
compress it out of the message body.

Sounds like a very promising way to go.

You could also try deleting c:\_dat\memoed.env  --  if the problem is
only with Memo, that's the most likely problem.  When you restart Memo,
the file should be recreated.HTHPeniel

LXPIC supports the IMG format of the Kodak DC20. If this format
has not changed with the DC50 camera, it should work right out
of the box.

Yes! It's freeware, takes up virtually no memory and is very
easy to operate. It's called the Caps Lock key! ;-)

Perhaps it's not marked on your keyboard, but pressing
shift+0 should work.

In the process of porting the PAL library to X11 I have the following two
questions:

Is the SetClip routine ever beeing used by anybody for application purposes, or
is it just used by the library itself?

I got nearly all the graphics primites working now, except the font stuff=2E It
would be easy to use the X11 font routines, but you would have to convert every
font for your specific X11-server and to install it=2E=20=


It would be more portable and easier usable to use the fonts which come with the
200LX=2E These fonts are built in the 200LX - am I right? So I think I can conver=
t
these to HFN with the pfe font editor=2E (I think in the end I need to use own
fonts, because of HPs copyright=2E This would not be hard, because the internal
fonts are just monospaced - am I right?


Can anybody help me with documentation or (understandable) routines for these
HFN-fonts and its format? I think I need to write some routines for to display
fonts on one X11 window=2E These routines then could be used for other ports to,
if I have a basic set of graphics primitives=2E

Only an idea, but maybe the file format is already JPG or TIFF and only
has to be renamed. Try to rename such a file to and *.JPG try to open
it with LXPIC.

I have a DS unit from Thaddeus. I suppose I should probably get the
latest DS drivers. However, when I go to the Time2tech website, it asks
me for a userid and password. I've looked through the documentation I
got with my DS unit, and I don't see a user ID & password to use. Do I
need to call Thaddeus for that??

A part of the WordPerfect Office was "Repeat Performance".

"Repeat Performance is a keyboard enhancement product included
with WordPerfect Office that ..."

Features are
Repeat Speed    11 to 1000 caracters per second
Delay           pause before a key begins to repeat
Skid Squelch TM "eliminates cursor skid (cursor movement which
                continues after a key is released)"
Turbo Button    increased repeat rate
Quick Entry of Special Characters
Type-Ahead Buffer  15 to 10,000 characters
Disabling Reverse Caps Lock
Tone Frequency  of computer's beep
Tone Duration

I used it for speed, delay, Skid Squelch, buffer, and
fixing the caps lock bug for many years.  It conflicts
with windows, so haven't used it in a while.  The 200LX
keyboard is somewhat non-standard so I don't know if
it would work on the palmtop.

I'll throw in what I know... the DC 50 uses a proprietary format called
.KDC. There are a few Windows (tm, all hail Bill Gates) graphics
programs that support this file type (Vueprint, for example), but I am
not aware of anything for DOS, unfortunately. There might be something
out there, you will have to do a search. Once you convert them to a more
common file type, you can use LXPIC to look at them.

I have a 200lx and a 100lx and I have several compact flash disks
with adapaters and one of the older flash disks.  I use them
interchangably in the 100lx and 200lx and in my laptop all the time.
I've never needed a driver.

They are all Sandisk.  I've heard that some other brands need
drivers but I never remember which ones, so that keeps my buying
Sandisk.

I don't have my Radio Slack catalogue here, but they used to sell the "jewel

Or maybe your local Radio Slacker can point you in the direction of their

I have used an old Deskjet 500 with my 200LX
I noticed a D-25 port next to the Centronics port underneath the printer.
I'm not sure if all deskjet 500s have the serial input.
I connected the palmtop uing the connectivity cable and printer adaptor.
I can't remember what driver I used but it was one of the built in ones
e-mail me if you have any questions

So I need pointers to info on Serial printers and serial printing from
the 200lx.  Any ideas?

The Deskjet, Deskjet Plus, and Deskjet all have serial ports on them. The
drivers for the Deskjet printers with the serial port are built into the
200LX.

Look under the system icon.

Just Bought a palm v today, its a great unit but a little too fragile, even
though it has the aluminum case.  The screen is great much better contrast
than the 200lx, but much more glare.

I'm sure I'm missing something here, but here's my trouble:
I'm trying to write a macro... in this case to copy hilighted text from a
note file
and make a new To-Do item in my APPT book.
Everytime I try to record the macro, I get an error message saying:
"Macro file A (or C, D, etc.) not found"
Have I lost some files somewhere?
Thanks,

Hi
I am selling my mint, Microcom 14.4 Pocket Modem. Handles Fax too. About the
size of a thick deck of playing cards. Unit works perfectly, using a
rechargeable battery, built in, and a charger, included. There is a funky
serial connection cable too, whose purposes I have yet to figure out, and I
will include that---I just used the 200LX standard serial cable and the
appropriate adapter from the CPack instead.  $25 shipped(in the US).
My 32mb DS is also still for sale on Ebay

My DC50 has .KDC format files - I don't know if it's an IMG format but I
believe not.

I stuff 'em on this P133 machine and convert them there with the Kodak
utility, I'd love to be able to do this on the LX as well.

Richard & Patti Smith (Seronac) asked about a .GDB file (a database) for
E-bay info...

Just a suggestion: since E-bay is already a humongous database in HTML
format, why not use "File/Save As" the pages you're interested in and view
them with HV on the Ptop. With PE as the editor attached to HV's F3 key, you
could make changes as items come and go. The alternative (saving pages,
converting from HTML to text (CSV) and from CSV files to GDB) sounds like a
lot of work.

Hi!

Ok, I found some Dokumentation about HFN fonts and I think it will be quite easy
to get them working=2E I also got one resident font extracted with pfe=2E Does
anybody know, how I can do this for the two other fonts? I just get One resident
font=2E

Are there some three font which have exactly the same width and height as the
internal ones?

I think the glare is caused by screens that use backlighting. The best
screen I've seen so far is on the newer Compaq Aero plam devices. No
backlight but the display is the crispest LCD I've ever seen. The compaq
Aero's are also .5" thick which is nice.

More likely the glare is caused by a lousy touch screen layer.

There is so much glare that they even have a program called mirror where
you can use the screen as a mirror.

Yeah, it's a really silly program tho. All it does is make the contrast so
high that the screen goes black. Not a very good mirror. I think that, for
the cost, the palm v is way overrated. I think the palm OS based
alternatives look better (handspring and another one I can't remember). I
even like windows CE devices better than palm because they take memory
cards.

The ?00lx has a caps lock.  Shift 0 (zero) turns it on and back off.

Hi Tony.
I don't have the experience to use TREMM.EXE, so I can't answer about
TREMM.EXE. But if you use the JKIT on the swapped 32MB C drive, there
is another problem.

The LXFONT.EXE of the JKIT doesn't support over 8MB drive.
Japanese double byte characters can't be displayed rightly on the over
8MB drive. You must patch LXFONT.EXE using LXFNPAT3.LZH.
See http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA003628/jkitpat.html.

This patch is for the LXFONT.EXE Ver.1.10.

Good luck.

Subject:      I can get PCMCIA cases
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

I have found a supply of PCMCIA jewel cases locally that are selling for
$4/each. If I purchase in volume I think that I could get a substantial
discount. I don't want enough to make a volume purchase and I hate to pay
$4, so I was wondering if people on the list would be interested.

If there was enough interest, I could buy a large lot, then resell to the
list. So what I need are some estimates of how many, and what price I
should be willing to pay.

If you are interested please email me off list with:

1. How many you would be interested in.
2. What you think is a reasonable price per jewel case to pay.
3. The most you would be willing to pay per case for the number you are
interested in.

Shipping would be extra, for now just assume $3.20 per order for USPS
priority. For just one or two, it could probably be shipped in a padded
envelope for a couple bucks.

After that I'll see what kind of deal I can make, and if it fits what
people want to pay. I'll post my findings to the list.


I guess I should say that your response to this does not constitute an
order, and you are under no obligation to purchase any cases. I am also
not under any obligation to sell any cases.

The IR port on the 800 is on the back edge in the center (near the latch which
drops down the port cover).

I've never been able to get it to work with the 200LX, and my understanding was
that the 800 was using IRDA vs SIR on the 200LX.  This was while running Win95
on the 800 and trying LapLink,  Transfile and CPack.  Older models of the OB
(300, 400, ?) were supposedly designed with 200LX comm in mind, but the 800
seems a departure (and not sure about the 600).

OTOH, if anyone's done 200LX <-> 800CT via IR, I'd like to know also.  I know
there's been success with other notebooks, particularly as they seemed to have
been provided with alternative IR drivers (vs just IRDA for the 800).

It is difficult to compare my 200LX and your 200LX on battery life.
The current drain is much different, because speed and memory
configurations are quite different.
I think both result are reasonable.

After the charge, the voltage is over 2.6V.(battlog data)
I think it is fully charged.

I thought about that sort of thing, but that's not really what I want to
do.  I want some thing to help me keep track of buyers and sellers,
rather than stuff.  For instance: when I sell something, I want to put
the buyers name and vital info into a db and keep track of where we are
in the process.  Maybe I'll just go ahead and create one and share it
with everyone, I just didn't want to re-invent the wheel.  That's the
beauty of the 200lx database applet: it's so easy to create a database!

Richard & Patti Smith (Seronac) asked about a .GDB file (a database) for

E-bay info...

Just a suggestion: since E-bay is already a humongous database in HTML
format, why not use "File/Save As" the pages you're interested in and
view
them with HV on the Ptop. With PE as the editor attached to HV's F3 key,
you
could make changes as items come and go. The alternative (saving pages,
converting from HTML to text (CSV) and from CSV files to GDB) sounds
like a
lot of work.

Hi friends,

today I got an ebay newsletter that says that now there's a WAP gateway
for the German ebay. I'm just trying this out with netscape and it
looks quite simple - just right for HV!

If the ebay.com doesn't have it, too, you can try it at wap.ebay.de .

Now we're able to bid on ebay with HV, I think!

sorry, not right!
A page-down showed the contents of the site. Only the upper part on the
site was empty :-)
So it seems to work!!!

Hi again.  I am running into a weird problem.  I regularly test programs,
and occasionally that causes my palmtop's date to revert to 1980.   I can
handle that so far.   But lately I am running into the problem that my
palmtop will somehow change the date to July 1999!   And the weird part
is that I get no warning whatsoever, unlike with 1980.   The only way I
catch it is when I try to setup an appointment, and discover that the
date doesn't match the day of the week (I could almost swear that the day
of the month it's still correct, but I am not sure).  The only new
programs I have loaded are AutoCaps and X-Finder  R.11b.   I am assuming
AutoCaps could not do that.

Has anyone noticed this yet?

Someone pointed out the OB800 manuals available at

http://www.hp.com/cposupport/manindex/hpomnibook8375_eng_man.html

Trying to download files with Netscape 4.5, sometimes it brings up the
Adobe 4.0 plugin and puts it on the screen. I can then do a "save as"
and it has to go through the whole download process again. If I breath
right, the plugin does not boot and it just downloads into the Netscape
cache area and I can retrieve it that way saving time.

I looked also on

 ftp://ftp3.hp.com/pub/

but couldn't seem to find the files.

Anyone know an easier way to get the pdf files from HP. I would like to
collect all the files on all HP stuff that I have

OB800CT
HP200LX
HP6P
HP340C
HP41
HP42
HP694C

and probably others.

<<Yeah, it's a really silly program tho. All it does is make the
contrast so
high that the screen goes black. Not a very good mirror. I think
that, for
the cost, the palm v is way overrated. I think the palm OS based
alternatives look better (handspring and another one I can't
remember). I
even like windows CE devices better than palm because they take
memory
cards>>

I have a Palm 3x and even though the screen has more glare than the
200lx I've never found it to be a problem at all.  And I'm normally
very bothered by this glare.  I think the sharpness of the screen is
one of it's best points.

However, there are solutions if it does bother you.  There are a
number of screen protectors, some held on by static electricity and
others by adhesive.  A lot of them come with a matte finish.

I think the other PalmOS device that you're thinking about is the
TrgPro.  It's made by TRG, who has been making the memory upgrades
for the Palm.  It's a lot more expensive but it has more memory and
uses a standard compact flash card, where the Handspring uses a
proprietary card.  The TrgPro also has PalmOS in flash like the
Palms do, so it can be upgraded.  The handspring has PalmOS in rom
and you're stuck forever with the OS version it comes with.  This is
especially important since there's a major upgrade of PalmOS due out
in a couple of months.

I don't use my Palm enough now to get another one.  But if I did I'd
be looking pretty closely at the TrgPro.

I've used my IBM Thinkpad i/r to transfer files to the palmtop.  It

Hi Helge.

If you're running a Thaddeus or Rundel or Times2Tech speed/memory upgrade, the
unit should have come with the necessary utilities to run EMM (tremm.sys).

Look in your config.sys and if you're loading spd31.sys, then you have the
Times2Tech upgrades and tremm.sys should work for you.

I use NetTamer 1.08PT in conjunction with ntlserv.exe ... a $10 shareware
utility that breaks the inbound mail into separate "folders".

I'm not sure what's meant by "handles digests".  NT would probably read a digest
as a single email note.

1.08PT still works for me)

Does anyone know how I could use the HP to generate specific IR codes

from your existing remote control.

But I have a need to generate a set of specific, known codes in the
Philips RC5 format.  I do not have a suitable remote control, or else
I wouldn't have this need.

Can anyone help me?

Hi Mack,

I have put an (analog) Ampmeter between the adapter plug and
the LX at 12 Volts (instead of feeding 3 Volts directly to the battery
contacts) and found the following:

1.  Typing in Memo:
1.1 Without the mode statement:
    waiting for input: 26 mA
    typing: 35-40 depending on typing speed
    repeating a letter by holding a key down: 40 mA

1.2 With the mode con:rate=32 delay=1 statement:
    waiting for input: 26 mA
    typing: 35-40 depending on typing speed
    repeating a letter by holding a key down: 52 mA.

2. Typing in DOS (POST/LX as I do right now) consumes 58 mA,
   waiting or typing or holding a key down, all the same.

To compare these measurements with your results (50 mA idle
and 90-100 during keystrokes), at the same power consumption
(watts), with higher voltage the level of current must be
lower (if I remember well from school). As you worked with 3
Volts, it should be one fourth of what you reported in your
second Email. It is, however just half. Is there anybody who
could explain that ?

Conclusion: The higher power consumption (30% higher, or 12
mA, measured at 12 Volts) when holding a key down, for me,
is not too much for the higher editing speed. I will keep the
mode statement in my autoexcec.bat file. Thanks for the tip !

Regards
Winfried

Send the command SET HPLX-L NOMAIL to listserv@uconnvm.uconn.edu. it will
send you a confirmation that you will no longer receive messages from the
list, until you send a 'set
hplx-l mail' message to turn it back on.

Thanks for the reply, I also happened to get a note from an Omnibook 600
owner who reported that the 600 will talk to the 200 using LLRA and the IR
port. So it looks like a 600 is what I want (the 600 will run WIN95
right?).
For the record I can confirm that the Omnibook 300 and 425 would connect
to the palmtop using the IR port.

You can make it NOMAIL for a few days, and it will stop
sending you mail. Also, open a YAHOO.COM email address, and
tell it to go check on your email at the location where you
normally get email. You'll need to give login id at the
normal ISP, password, and the server name for that POP3.
Yahoo will then get your email on any internet connected
machine. You can either specify to delete messages on the
remote server or keep them.

Conider the following in your deliberations:

1. You will be entering your password into someone's
machine - both the Yahoo account and the regular email
account. You have little control about what happens to that
info.

2. Your email will be downloaded to the machine where you
view it, so you can view it. You need to worry about
caches, and what happens to data in that machine.

Don't panic, just consider this...

It works, and I used thi method before. I recommend to do
it and practice it at home, where you can learn what you
need to do.

One more item, I remove the remote isp from my Yahoo
account each time after usage. Prudence...

BTW, "handle digest" I assume means to take a digest apart
to its individual components making a bunch of emails out
of them. The newest Post/LX posted two three days ago can
now do this to MIME encoded digests.

You can not download wap pages and use Hv on them. Wap pages are
written in wml which is some sort of html. And Hv only understands
html. But there should not be a problem for anyone with experience to
modify Hv to understand wml.

Wap/wml is nice for palmtop's I think because they are "light"..no
graphics and stuff like that..only text, but there are support for
graphics.

I hope somebody with experience and source for Hv can make a wap plug
in for Hv..

Hmm I saw that you got it working..is it like surfing a normal html
page?

Wait a minute.  Didn't you recently tell us that, short of holding a gun
to his head,
you could not convince Andreas to add digest handling to the program?
8-)

Maybe I'll buy it after all . . . . seems like Steve will not change the
fonts in Goin' Postal.  :-)

OK, here is something else to annoy Andreas with:  8-)

How about making a Post/LX version in native DOS format?  Sort of like
Buddy/DOS.  The idea would be to save memory by not needing an extra TSR.
I for one would be interested in using it in another DOS palmtop, an XT.
Post/LX being the most expensive piece of LX palmtop software I know of,
I think this is
a reasonable request.
Nettamer has an XT version and a 386 version, as well as the palmtop
version.
That's also a thought (bigger client base).

I've only found one -- Hit the scancd key, and this version shows a
short form of the program name in addition to the code.  Nice to have

I can't - just found the one improvement by playing around.  There's

Some of you may be familiar with the CAMEDOS digital camera program by
TsuruZoh Tachibanaya. This program was written for the HP200LX.
Recently, Alfred Lee added some nice enhancements, including making the
CP200 go to sleep in between long time lapse shots. (This is so cool,
the palmtop wakes up, takes a shot, and goes back to sleep!) I have now
updated the program to add Nikon CP950 support. If anyone is interested
in testing/trying this 950 support out, send me an e-mail.

Unless things have changed, they discontinued palmtop support with V11,
directing people to use the XT version instead.

I thought  that was the last version.  I guess I am out of touch.  NT is
very pleasant to use,
but the connection seems *very* slow.

Did anyone ever use later versions succesfully?   Ver 11 looked very
sharp, but it did not work for
me last time I used it.

Post/LX explodes digests into separate messages *during* dowloading!
Hmmm  .   .  .   .    doesn't that defeat the purpose of subscribing to
the digest?
I though it would treat the digest like a file of email's, without
separating them,
except to answer.  Kind of like what the freeware digest reader does.

Someone I doubt that is Goin' Postal's approach.

Maybe I'll think about it some more.

That is the major reason I want to leave LA - too much gun
usage. I posted i jest that I used a bazooka. In truth, the
discussion here and the (strong) opinions in the beta
helped make the case.

I  used a bazooka this time, and it worked. Gun is not scary
enough... :-) ...

Actually you can thank the discussion here and the Beta

Try them before you buy. Then buy what you like best.

I think this won't annoy Andreas. It is already available!
All you need is to download PALRUN from our Webpage (ftp
link and look in the MISC subdirectory. Then to run WWW/LX
Plus on the desktop use

PALRUN www  !post

I use it on the notebook like this. One of our Betas, who
posts here often uses this as his regular mode of work.

Goin' Postal V4 does this.  It's in beta, I'm planning on officially
releasing it once I add some ram to me recently upgraded web server.

I believe Post/LX handles them via an external program.

I don't think I can change the fonts, since I'm a DOS program.  what
I could do is set a zoom mode and only write to a smaller screen area.
This is how I have VIEW setup as an attachment viewer under GP V4.

GP keeps the digest as a single file for storage.  When you select it,
GP creates a temporary inbox of individual messages to read, reply to,
or even save individual messages from.

That may be.  I never use it for web browsing, so I'm not aware of a slow
connection in that sense.  And during email downloads, I usually just start
it going and go get a cup of coffee ... mail's usually all ready to read by
the time I'm back from the kitchen.

I looked at V11 briefly, but I preferred to keep 1.08PT on the OB800 only
because I find a certain amount of synergy in running the same software on
multiple platform ... which is a nice way of saying I'm too lazy to install
and learn new features <g>.

This way you can treat each message as a separate email and
respond to it and it will have the proper subject.

When you download individual messages each of them has a
lot of "non-payload" in the form of headers. In the case of
a digest, there is only minimal headers attached to each
message and therefore is not downloaded.

I think Steve posted just recently something about how GP
handles digests.

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

Hi all, especially GPS fans,

please, excuse the bandwidth, however, I know there is
considerable wisdom in the LX community on GPS.

The other day I tried to employ GPS for survey work, to
measure the size of a plot of around 10 hectares. Results
were useless when compared to cadastral maps with deviation of
around 40% from topographic data.

I knew that GPS was not too exact with plus or minus 30 meters
tolerance but the deviation was just too large. So I
tested my GPS (Apollo Precedus) by placing it under the sky
programming one take every second, producing 1647 points in
about half an hour, with the GPS in a fixed position.

I read these points into the LX and produced a Lotus graph
that showed a track like that of a hen being chased around in
a cage. Maximum deviations from the center point (gravity)
were around 80 meters, with distances between corner points of
124 meters East-West and 100 meters North-South.

My question: The Apollo Precedus has a plug DGPS (differential
GPS). That is supposed to be exact. Does anybody have an idea
how that works, especially which kind of data go into that
plug and where to get them ?

Is there a GPS interest group somewhere which could be helpful?

Please, answer off-list not to bother the rest of the
community.

Thank you all.
Winfried

OK, it's not really nonsense.

ccLXPOP 2.0 will let set up rules for directing mail to folders that you
have created in ccMAIL. It will not explode digests. It is still free. If
you would like a copy, drop me a note. I will send to SUPER as soon as they
are update it again.

 Thanks for everyone's help on fixing my space bar.
The
 super glue ended up fixing the problem. At first I
did
 not think it would work but after about 6-8 hours the
 glue hardened enough to make the space bar good as
 new. The lesson I learned is that if you do a lot of
 typing,try to hit the space bar right in the middle.
 Otherwise you can wear out the left or right plastic
 connector tab. Instead of two tabs, they probably
 should have had three tabs because the key is so
 long.

I dropped my LX200 again.  This time it hit in such a way that it knocked=
 the
Flash card out of the connector.  After pushing the card back in and
rebooting,
everything seems to be functioning correctly.
Except... Now every time I plug in the power supply, the LX goes into=
 charging
mode.  When I go into battery setup and turn off the charging mode, after
waiting a few seconds, the charging mode comes back on.  Removing the flash
card fixes the problem.  Putting in any flash card causes the problem to
return.

This is something I can live with but, is this symptomatic of a more serious
problem and can it be repaired?

I have always received valuable assistance from this list and am looking

differential GPS uses a second GPS at a fixed known point for
comparison. Most of the GPS errors should be shared between two GPS's
located close to each other so if one is at a known point the other can
use its error to adjust its own reading.

Well, Avi does hail from the Los Angeles area, where they less excuse than
that to pull a gun.

Los Angeles is definetly not this bad, even the less desirable places of LA
have been cleaned up.  Violent crimes have dropped 18% in the past 3 years.

True. it's not the criminals we worry about anymore as much as the police.
Particularly if you live near Foothill Division (Rodney King) or Rampart
Division (Raphael Perez and the anti-gang thugs).

Be that as it may, I think Avi works/lives on the fringes of LA county (Westlake
Village) as I do (in Ventura).  Excuse my occasional pot-shots at LA.  As a long
time former resident (born and raised in South Central, the flashpoint for the
Rodney King riots) I think many "Angelenos" view the crime/police situation with
a mixture of cynicism and gallows humor.

When LAPD hires Jeff Johns, is when I'd pack my bags and head back to LA <g>.
Jeff, you listening?  We don't even have snapping turtles on our roads to worry
about!

This stalling problem sounds exactly what I was suffering from before I

I'm trying to get the RC200 program to run on my palmtop, which is a
x2 version.  In the documentation for this program, the author reports
that someone once "patched" it to work properly with the x2 palmtop,
and gave the byte sequences necessary.  Well, I can't find them, and
want to know if anyone here was the source of this patch information,
or knows where it came from.  I've contacted the author, and his
interest level is pretty low about being much help.  I guess he's
moved on and is no longer is actively using his palmtop for remote
control.

Thanks,

-Chris Lott

This is how the url came to me.  Obviously it doesn't work.  I'm
using Outlook Express so I don't know how other readers saw it, but
just in case I thought I'd pass on the url again.  It's
community.borland.com/museum/

I think you have to sign up now.  I don't remember for sure.  I've
been going there for a while.

You can get Turbo C 2.01 at this address, which works great on the
palmtop.

Borland is getting good about giving away compilers.  Just in case
anyone is interested, you can get Turbo C++ 3.01 at www.progar.com
Look under Compilers and then under C++.  They have a lot of other
stuff too.  It's been there a while and seems professionaly done so
I'd be surprised if this isn't legal.

Also now that Builder 5 is out, Borland is offering its underlying
command line compiler(BCC 5.5) and tools without the gui (but with
the optimizer) free to download on their site.  And, unlike builder,
this does dos and windows 16 bit apps as well as win32.  There's a
lot there.  Thats at www.inprise.com.

Of course both TC++ 3.01 and BCC 5.5 won't run on the palmtop.  But
they're good compilers and free.

On a Mac, at least, go to Netscape's "Edit/Preferences/Applications" and in the
dialog box, select "Description:Portable Document Format". Click Edit to change
this selection, then choose "Handled by:Save to Disk". Save your changes.
Thereafter, any time you click on a PDF, Netscape will save it as a file which
you can open manually with Acrobat and convert to HTML if you like.

Has anyone come across any such resources for the 200LX on HP's site?

The DGPS port on your GPS is a connection for a second receiver that
receives a landbased generated signal that sends the correction information.

Your gps receiver takes the two inputs, one from the satellites, and the
other from the landbased receiver ( I think the coast guard runs this) and
computes the correct location.

Check with marina stores, they maybe able to give you more help on getting
dgps receiver.

It is goofy that one government agency, department of defense?  puts
intentional errors in the gps signal, and another government agency, the
coast guard, send the correction....

I would like a copy.  Thanks.   That's half the battle at least (the
other is the limit on the size of the mail,
and the digest issue).    By the way, have you considered what was posted
recently about lxpop, concerning
recompiling for the 8186 processor?   The same could apply to ccLXPOP.

Glad to hear I have options.
I considered the larger omnibooks but apparently the OB800 will not read
the palmtop IR. The OB 600 will work with the palmtop but I'm not quite
ready to go from 90Mhz (current desktop) to 75 Mhx (OB600).

What model thinkpad do you have?
What IR mode do you select to comunicate with the palmtop?
What operating system do yo have?

     I have also had good success communicating via infrared with the 200LX
and my IBM ThinkPad.  This model is a 133 MHz Pentium ThinkPad 365XD.  Its
IR port is set up in 'Generic Mode' as COM4.  The operating system is
Windows 95 OSR2.

     It has worked well for speeds up to 57,600 bps with all of the
following applications:

- LapLink Remote Access
- HP 200LX Connectivity Pack
- TransFile Win 200

This is a nice stats to know!

My discomfort in LA is really many things, partly the level
of crime (still higher than other places, although, as you
point out, may be on the way down), the lifestyle is too
brusque and too rough, the almost total dependence on a car
to go anywhere and do anything, waaaaaaay too many people,
and more coming in all the time, and so on. I lived here
for over 30 years now and I definitely saw big changes, and
many are not so good, but many are good.

Yes, very true. And actually the potshots are perceived as

always surprised at someone from the Ventura county doing
so - it certainly requires that they be awake - how unusual
for a Ventura County resident! <G>...

I just installed WWW and HV on my 8meg/DS 200lx.  WWW is a registered
version with no transfer limitations.  I am running WWW in SC in a "window"
with 568K (the max I seem to be able to get).  WWW and Post work fine
together.  I can send and receive mail.  When I run www and HV to connect to
the web, it dials and connects no problem, leaving me in the opening screen
of HV.  However, when I try to switch to a web site, HV says sending
request, getting data and switches to a blank screen that has c:\hv_001.htm
as the header.  The footer does not show that it has linked to anything.
This happens for all pages on the HV opening screen (DASOFT, Yahoo, etc.).
Each time the file name in the header is incremented by one.


Help!  How do I get pages to show.

P.S.  I just tried it outside of SC, from the dos prompt with the same
results.

Having dnl/d the package, I'd be surprised if it is legal. It's apparently a
copy of a licensed version of the compiler. Note the 2M .SWP file in the
archive. (Indicates that the user crashed the compiler and left the swap
file behind.) This is not the way that Borland distributes their compilers.
Typically, with Borland stuff, you have to install it. The TC3.01 package,
from program.com, is already installed.

Is there a way to change the order of the different currencies in the
currency exchanger that is built in in the LX 200?  I am going to a country
whose currency is listed on the 3rd page.  It would be more convenient to
have it on the first with the dollar.

Hi friends,

as I wrote a few weeks ago, I'll visit Vancouver, Canada in August
2000. In the hotel, there'll be a telephone jack for modem.

So I thought it would be great if I could use my 200LX to do my email
also in Vancouver. But I really don't want to do calls to Germany for
that purpose to contact my ISP.

Is there any ISP in Canada that I could connect to and contact my mail
server (GMX, a free email service that's available from every ISP) from
the hotel?
One that I can connect to 'call by call', i.e. without any registration
and contract?

TNX
daniel

Well, I've added a new toy to the toybox.  I just got an Omnigo 700lx that I
bought off eBay.  (It took 44 days from end of sale to delivery from
Scotland according to my little database. <G>)  I read the narrative about a
year ago that Bill Childers wrote and was intriqued.   Finally saw one that
was selling on Christmas day at a very reasonable cost and I decided I had
to give it a try.
Now the questions.    I got a Nokia 2110 phone with the Omnigo but it of
course is GSM and the nearest GSM area is about 100 miles away.  Does anyone
know for sure if a different Nokia 21?? phone, analog or digital variation,
will work or not?  Also, does anybody know where I can get a IR cover for a
700?  This unit I bought came with a cover from a 200lx on it.  The 200
cover keeps the battery in, but it looks out of place on the case.  Maybe
one of our list members overseas has an extra battery cover they would mail
me at a reasonable price?
Thanks again,
bob

It has to be GSM phone.  The only other model I know of that works with it
is the 2190 which is the US 1900Mhz GSM phone.

ccLXPOP was compiled (mostly on the 200LX) with the 80186 option applied.
But thanks for the recommendation!

You should have received your copy under separate copy - can't send bino's

No.  You can only "type-over" the currencies and put them in any order you
wish.

Does anybody know what the beeps mean? I do not notice anything

Since unlimited access can be had for as little as $19.95/month in Canada,
there's not much call for "call by call" service. If you only want 5 hours,
I think sympatico.ca offers that much for $4.95. Check their site to see
about the details.

Just read the documentation. (I'm not the user.)

This software looks into appmgr and MoreExm data files, and displays
a table of available hotkeys for exm programs.

It can also launch an exm program as well.

Sooo, I guess it is for some of us who has more exms than on can
remenber the hotkeys for.

I live near Toronto, Canada. There are several Freenets in Canada and I
believe there is one in Vancouver (or Victoria, which may be free call from
Vanc.) you can check by doing a search on the net. The Freenets on the east
side of Canada let _anyone sign up for their service and so if there is one
in Vancouver I'd imagine it would be the same there. It takes several weeks
to process an application so I'd start the process rolling now. You
basically just send them your name, address, and sign a form, that's it.
Most of these Freenets are text-based, but then, that's all you'd need. I
still have a couple of accounts in Toronto. It's really quite easy.

The Vancouver freenet is at http://www.vcn.bc.ca/ but I doubt that this
service will meet your needs; I think that you are restricted to what you
can do from a connection on this service but feel free to browse the site
and find out for yourself. Victoria is not within Vancouver's local
calling area.

My suggestion is to go with a global ISP such as Compuserve. THis way you
can get everything set up and tested in Germany, then simply change a
phone number when you're in Vancouver, or anywhere else in the world for
that matter.

Those maps have to be saved as .PCX files.
But converting them to .PCX is one thing, to make them look good is
another.
After that You can use them with LXMAP.
A map for LXMAP can be used in LXGPS and vice versa.

The Stockholm map in the LXMAP section on SUPER is such a map.
My first use for it was with LXMAP. But when I got a Magellan315 GPS
I calibrated the map so it also can be used in LXGPS. The
calibration data is hiden in the image file so LXMAP will not have any
problem reading it.

Thanks,
I was not aware of that (I must admit I never have had to use the disk that

Subject:      SMS with 5110 and LX, Silicom, etc.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=ISO-8859-2

Hello all,

I have a few ideas/questions about the 200LX:

Does anyone use a Nokia 5110 with cable connection to
200LX for convenient SMS-sending (the target use would
be to send longer 120+ character SMS messages, where
the LX keyboard excels). Maybe Stefan's PDU is useful,
but I guess it's exclusively for the Siemens S25.

Do you know about HP NewWave software? It was around
1990 and promised to be some kind of a DOS power user
heaven; but I don't know if it was for Win or DOS or
even the OS/2. Is it any related to the palmtop?

Another software of interest: Hijaak. It's something
which is still alive and well, but now only for Win9x.
I'm looking for the older (circa 1989) version, which
was OK even for the XT (or palmtop). Hijaak is a gra-
phics format conversion package that supports about
120 filetypes and can be useful to view faxes, PS and
TIFF, etc. on the HPLX.

I am trying the IBM PCjr IR keyboard with the 200LX,
but Datacomm is not the best tool for the purpose, is
there something more convenient SW, where I can test
different baudrates and parities with IR?

If IR proves incompatible, cable option is still there
and it seems easy to modify, as the pinout is known.
It uses simple 4-wire RJ11 UTP phone cord.

I was suprised that Accurite Doubleslot works with the
Silicom card and 8MB Kingston CF. Really nice to copy
files, especially as the loan machine is 200LX/1MB/1x.

BTW, I found out that I can use the Silicom only with
PDIPX/NETX drivers for the Accton. The reason is that
we still use Netware 3.11, which predates ODI, but the
Silicom doesn't come with native IPX/Netx, only ODI.
Maybe my company should keep up with IT pace? However
anything is better that WinNt...

Also we'll have two new AS/400e, a model 720 and 170.
I hope it ensures another troublefree five-seven years
especially if we can introduce Domino on it, solving
LAN collaboration server needs without any PC at all.
The PC is nice, but not for everything. At least I can
run TN5250 emulation on the LX and log into OS/400...

Sorry for the long posting, Sincerely: Tamas Feher.

Hi there,

maybe I've missed some information, but what is with the SUPER-Site?
Since last year nothing has changed on

And since "Last modified on Wednesday, 9-Feb-2000", no files are left
there? What's the situation?

Sorry for the confusion.   No one from SUPER seems to have acknowledged
to the list
any problem about the updating (unless I missed something), so I would
suggest that,
if you are not confortable answering requests, try an FTP site, or a site
such as mydocuments.com,
where people can store files for latter retrieval.

Just a thought.

Yes - I have tried running it from DOS.  Actually that is the only way I
have tried.  When I push F8 and get information on the web page (which is
not showing) it always says that I have over 220K for DOS and over 25K for
HV.  It also ways that I am on the web page I want opened, even though  it

In W95 w/Acrobat 4.0, it appears that the config is handled by the "plug-in". I
haven't found in Adobe where to change it yet, but at least your suggestion gave me
a clue.

Hmmmm...Mark Twain said "there are lies, damn lies and statistics".

The LAPD (at least Rampart Division) seems to have taken over LA's violent
crime scene so it's pretty easy for the police to massage LA's crime
statistics and spin police perpetrated violent crime (via corruption and
death squads) into heroes upholding public safety doing society a big favor.
The liability compensation, especially with California jurists, for wrongful
imprisonment or death may even bankrupt LA as this scandal snowballs. Police
departments all over America reclassify crimes or "lose case files" while
under tacit/overt pressure to habitually under report crimes to keep their
communities (appearing) safe and attractive to tourists and taxpayers alike.
Now we understand why O.J. wasn't convicted.

For our international friends, and those who can't believe this (and a lot
else) could happen in an America which wags its nagging finger worldwide,
check out the LA Times website on the LAPD, planted evidence, wrongful
convictions, violence and murders for a real eye opener:

I have a 365XD, a 385ED and a 1412i.  I keep the old ones when I
upgrade.  I've used the IR on both the 365XD and 385ED a few times.
But I don't remember how I did it.  I found something that assigned
the serial port to the IR on the Thinkpad, I guess.  And of course
the same on the LX.   I do remember it didn't take much fumbling.
It worked the first or second time I tried it.

I'm sure I was using Windows 95 then.  I only upgraded everything to
Win 98 a few months ago.  I remember that I did test the IR transfer
with Win98 to make sure it worked.  I don't remember the results but
if it had been any problem I'm sure I would remember that.

As soon as I figured out how much easier with PCMCIA transfer I
began doing that and I haven't used the IR since.  In fact, I've had
the 1412i for only a few weeks and I just found out it has IR on a
laptop newsgroup.

By the way, the reason I can afford to get new laptops this often
(about every 18 months) even though they're only a convenience to
me, is that I watch for closouts when they change models.  And then
I argue about the price.  I was tempted to get the 1412i at $1995
but decided not to spend that much.  Three weeks later the new
models came out and I saw it for $1395 and with a little negotiating
I got it for $1300 including the extended warranty.

The deals I got on the other ones were even better since stores used
to have more room to negotiate.  It's not hard to find these deals
at the big computer stores if you look about every week or two.
Negotiating usually has to be done with the manager.

I hadn't noticed thw .swp file.  What you say makes sense.  However
that has been on that site for a few weeks and they tell how many
downloads it's had.  It's been pretty popular.  You'd think Borland
would know by now.  Maybe they don't.  or maybe they don't really
care.  They are giving away the underlying compiler for their new
version of Builder, just released last week.

Borland just merged with Corel and will become a subsidiary of
Corel.  Corel is getting very much into the open source thing.  I
wonder if that has anything to do with this?  They might not care,
or they might be too busy to notice. :)

I had responded to this question also, both on and off-list, but the email to

helgeholm@HOTMAIL.COM; Action: Failed; Status: 5.3.0 (other or undefined mail

This has happened on several other occassions, and always with HOTMAIL.COM.

Does anyone know what the dope is on how to send to that email service?  Or is
this a local restriction of some sort on my own email handler (I'm running Lotus

I was not aware of that (I must admit I never have had to use the disk that

Hello Longden and list,

The last 2 days there seems to be some sort of problem with Hotmail -again.
First I thought the listsvr. was down, but when I received the digest
version on another address, I realised it was Hotmail. It seems like I have
to move away from Hotmail sooner than I planned. (I can't access Hotmail
from my HP anyway). Again, tanks for your help EMM works super now.

Hi Gary.

I'm not sure about the hppim apps, but cpack pims had some problems under NT
that was fixed by making more environment space.

Maybe a long shot, but if you have nothing else to try...

This was posted by Geert van Wirdum October of last year (subject: CPack vs
Transfile (was: CPack Question and others) ):

To recap the earlier discussion, an important issue with
running cpack under NT is the use of environment resource,
which is devoted to maintaining variables accessed by other
apps.

These variables and their values can be displayed using the
DOS SET command, or by using ControlPanel/System/Environment.

If you're having trouble with functions in cpack (Filer
wouldn't work for me), try using
ControlPanel/System/Environment to remove extraneous
variables and/or values to gain back environment space, which
cpack appears to need.

Just the other day my 200LX slipped out of my hand while I was using it. I
deftly snatched it out of the air before it hit the floor (whew!) but in doing
so, I squeezed the PC-Card slider and partially ejected the flash card. My 200LX
emitted the same pattern of beeps as you asked about (one long then two short).

I pushed the flash card back into the 200LX, and everything is working fine (and
quietly!) ...so I suspect this sound means that a 200LX is having problems
accessing a flash card.

I hope this helps,

I have pin-down the problem: If I have an application lauched
by moreexm open, then turn off the palmtop, then switch
PCMCIA cards, and then turn it on again, I get the beeps.
If I then close the moreexm-lauched application, and turn the
palmtop off-on, the beeps no longer happen.

I suppose it is moreexm trying to get at the a:\moreexm.ini
file.

Tomas,

In the HP's Lotus 123, try defining the lines as records in a database table
(see instructions under the command /DATA QUERY). Establish the INPUT,
CRITERIA and OUTPUT RANGEs (include all fields).  Leave the CRITERIA RANGE
blank to allow all records (less unique ones) to copy to the output range.
Use the /DATA QUERY UNIQUE command to copy unique records to the OUTPUT RANGE.

I haven't messed with unique records in a while, so you may want to
experiment on a smaller scale first.

Good Luck, Harb

Sms is limited to max 160 characters..but I guess you know that.
Regarding 5110..I know that you can not use it for data because it has
the same internal solution as the 6110. It needs a software modem
(Nokia Cellular Data Suite.)

If sms will work..hmm I would think so. I have not tested this of
course. But I think that the 5110 "talks" irda language on the cable.

So it should be possible to use Andreas Garzotto's sms.scr/Robot/Lx to
work if you have a cableconnection. Stefan's PDU does not work via irda
on my 7110. I can download sms from 7110->Hplx but not send. Stefan
told me that they do not know why. It should work, but does not Work
with Nokiaphones..

The cable you need is a Daup9 I think. It is possible to get cheap.
This cable will work with Logonanager for a lot of things..Nokia
Cellular Data Suite 2.0/3.0 can also be found out there somewhere..

If you get it to work with the Hp you can only use it for sms and not
data So it is more useful with a desktop/Windowssystem.

Regarding the rest of your posting I have nothing to add..

Hello Tomas,

My suggestion, of which I hope for a "second opinion" is as follows;
1. Assuming you have your problem lines starting in cell A1
2. Copy the macro below to an area below the problem lines. (In this
example the macro is located in range A100..B110)
3. With the cursor in cell A110 "name" the ranges of the macro with the
command: /RNLR{DOWN 10}<Enter>
4. Start the macro with <Alt>+A (or <Ctrl>+A if you run Windows)

Voila, this should delete duplicate lines (cells)

\A      {goto}A1~{let celltest_1,(@cellpointer("contents"))}{d}
again   {let celltest_2,(@cellpointer("contents"))}
        {if @cellpointer("type")="b"}{quit}
        {if celltest_1=celltest_2}/wdr~{again}
        {let celltest_1,(@cellpointer("contents"))}{d}
        {let celltest_2,(@cellpointer("contents"))}
        {if celltest_1=celltest_2}/wdr~{again}
        {again}

celltest_1
celltest_2

As I mentioned I would like a "second opinion" on whether or not this could
be done more elegantly. So, list..........?

Alberto Wong <albertowh@NETSCAPE.NET> asked about an external keyboard for
the Palmtop.

I've been testing the Jornada keyboard for the past couple of weeks. The
first few days I fought with it because it's a slightly different keyboard
(I go through that struggle with each new keyboard, so no big deal.)  Once I
got used to the layout of the keys and how the Windows key works with the
other keys, I began to like it and use it much more. I even composed the
last couple of Email Newsletters using the Palmtop... one was written while
waiting in an appropriately called hospital waiting room. The keyboard is
very fast and responsive. The "feel" is also quite good. I really like it.
Granted, the Jornada keyboard is a bit pricey, but the other external
keyboards built for the PDA market are in the same price range.

Hello,

First of all, welcome to the group.

Years ago, I purchased a Newton keyboard from Shier Systems and
Software. I don't think they sell it anymore. The nice feature
about this Newton keyboard is it requires no adapter to
plug it into the HP 200LX. Shier Systems & Software replaced
the original Newton keyboard cable with one that will work with
the 200LX. All you do is plug it in, run the driver, press a
hot keys sequence to activate the keyboard and start typing. If
you can find one of these, get it. You will like it. It was a
little pricey when I ordered it from Shier and I have no idea
what a used one would cost, if you can even find one. It is a
great desktop companion.

Thaddeus.com has the Jornada keyboard. This keyboard cost
$139.00 and requires the HP connectivity cable. They sell both
so this may be your only option. I hope you find one used.

If you use your 200LX as much as I do, it is really nice to
fly over the keyboard instead of using a couple of fingers and
a thumb to input data on the 200LX keys. An external keyboard
is really handy for large projects.

Hello All,

I have a newer version of the Volkov Commander patch available for
those that wish to test it out. It should work with several different
versions as well as patch the VCSETUP.COM program. Please email me
directly for a copy.

The one advantage to the above is that you can still use the Jornada
keyboard with the Jornada CE machines since the keyboard now has a
standard serial port on it. You will of course need the Jornada cable
to plug into the keyboard, but they all come with one fortunately.

 Mack

Well, I did not mean to start a holy war about gun usage in
LA, or crime statistics. I think there is violence
everywhere in more or less amounts.

I don't like LA anymore because I feel there is more
violence here. But that is a subjective observation.
Perhaps I am less tolerant, perhaps I happen to be more
aware, perhaps the are where I live is more affected. To
state from my personal experience that LA is not so bad, or
that is, seems ludicrous.

One picture makes it sound like Los Angeles is a blissful
place where people are all friends, help each other out,
and love one another. That is not the case.

The other picture would make you feel that policemen on the
street prowl the neighbourhoods looking for some dumb,
innocent citizen to arrest, rob, torture, whatever.
Clearly, that is not the case either.

The stats can indeed be massaged. BOTH ways. The media is
hungry for something to publish. Readers look for something
to read. It is an unfortunate human trait that looks for
the sensationalist. I suspect that the LA Times, while very
good about sources and accuracy, will find it hard to
report on how a cop stopped me the other day, and was very
pleasant - still gave me a ticket, mind you! :-) - but was
very courteous, explained things, accomodated two of my
requests with no problems. That's a lousy story for the
paper!

Are there nasty cops in LA? Surely! I am sure there are bad
cops EVERYWHERE in the world. Remember? they are humans. I
have no doubts, and I even know one bad one. To implicate
all several thousand cops because within the Rampart
Division there was nasty, evil group of cops, is really not
fair.

Finally, Sidney, I would like to ask you where you live
most of the time, and when you are in SoCal where are you
staying usually. :-)  (I am guessing the answer based on our
off-line email exchanges, but it seems that you should
disclose that in the context of Bad Los Angeles Cops! :)...
)

Anyway, I still want to leave LA, and increasingly wanted
to do it for several years, but I am still here. Because it
is not as desparate as the picture painted by LA Times, at
least I do not perceive it as so.

I d/l it just this week. It installed nicely but the very first program
I tried it on started up but failed within a minute. It was keeptime.exe
A Field Service tracker
It runs fine on my 200lx I set the memory on the 200lx to 256 and it
doesn't even need maxdos. But on the velo1 running pocketdos, splat.

I have had this happen when running EXM programs from a PCMCIA card and
removing the PCMCIA card. If the application is currently active, you are ok
as it's code segment is still resident, but if it has been swapped out, you
willl likely crash if you try to swap back into it. Don't know if this
explains what you are seeing or not.

My understanding is that GPS is within plus or minus 100 meters. Your
observation of 80 seems to confirm this.

It works fine for me. I think I recall seeing this error once when
trying to open a corrupt ADB file. Have you run DBCHECK on the file?

Hi.
I have had this problem before.  I don't remember exactly what the problem
was, but I think it does have something to do with the moreexm.ini file.
Try copying the file to the root directory of the flash card.  I think
that's what I did.

Good luck.

Yep,

I've had it for a few weeks now... runs ok on my HP680... so far.  I've not really spent alot of time using it though, basically tried out a few games (kinda neat to see colors rather than grey-scale on some of these!), skyglobe, word5.5, and wordperfect.  No problems with any of those.  I tried to run PREDICT, a satellite tracking program, but received "divide" errors... so thats at least one that won't run.  I hope to try out Post/LX this week... as I prefer that interface to WinCE's Pocket Mail.

The DOS functions work flawlessly as far as i can tell :O)

I did have the opportunity to test a NOKIA 8210 for a couple of hours.

I use POST/LX and HV/LX. For setup I used SETCOM which is available in
the www section at ftp.dasoft.com. This sets the necessary www
parameters automatically; like plug and play.

The only thing I had to do, was to select IrDA on the Nokia 8210. I
placed it next to the hp200lx infrared port.

I did start POST/LX and pressed F5. The Nokia was detected
automatically, the connection established and POST/LX did download my
latest emails.

I did download "ring" from Stefan Peichls web page using this infrared
connection via the NOKIA 8210.

When I quit POST/LX or HV/LX, the IrDA was disable after a minutes on
the NOKIA automatically.

"Ring" used according the docs displays EMI errors/sec 162, the other
values were zero.

Result: it works and is easy to use. Nice and handy solution.

Regards

Helmuth

Hi all DOS palmtop users out there!

I think that MS Excel is one of the problems we have to face. I have
heard that MS Excel 2.1c can be installed under DOS and it will work
well.......

So now I would like to have some feedback from you users out there-
do you have a copy of Excel 2.1c running and is it OK?

If you are a proud owner of MS Excel 2.1c English version- then please
contact me, in order to tell me how you use it.


Regards,


Jorgen

True, but considerably less in the EU countries (and Switzerland) where
crime rates have risen because of the influx from the former East bloc after
the fall of the Iron Curtain. So right wing extremism, unfortunately, is
also on the rise as a reaction but this is also part of the democratic
process.

The scary thing viewing the USA from outside the USA is the sheer randomness
of the violence, and that it can happen at any time, anywhere, to anyone by
anybody of nearly any age under any circumstance.

Like Serbian history and Orthodox Christianity in the heart of Europe.
Doesn't make a good story or sell newspapers here either. In America (and
maybe even in Europe) most people don't know that 800.000 Serbs were
liquidated in WWII by an unholy alliance of Croats, Nazis and the Vatican,
that 40,000 of the best Allied partisans including many of the
intelligentsia were executed in Slovenia right after WWII, that 3-400,000
Serbs were ethnically cleansed out of Croatia during the Bosnian war, that
Serbia has 1 million refugees and is by far the most ethnically diverse of
the Balkan countries, that the infamous shell in a Sarajevo market was fired
by Muslims on their own people to incite the West to act (but falsely blamed
on the Serbs and never corrected because it was bad politics), that the KLA
are the biggest drug dealers in Europe, that Albanians run 90 pct of the
northern Italy drug trade and that violent crime has increased drastically
all over Europe as a result of perspicacious western policies. Corruption?
It really is everywhere. Look at would be lily-white Germany today (not that
it doesn't happen in Switzerland, Italy or France or elsewhere).

I'm cynical enough to believe the practice is more widespread than
alleged, admitted or can be admitted. That is truly scary. But I'm
constantly appalled, as an American, at how much the USA points its finger
worldwide for political ends and (laudably) human rights while
hypocritically allowing its own chain gangs, prison labor, excessive human
rights violations in Waco TX, NYC, LA and within FBI ranks--same things. You
are partly right but it is fair because there has long been an exceptionally
difficult to break and easy to exploit "code of silence" among the
police--everywhere, and it is surely not just confined to the Rampart
Division. This is just the proverbial tip of the iceberg.

I live full time in Switzerland but often visit my folks in Irvine, CA
(Orange County) or close friends Beverly Hills / West LA (haven't been back
in over a year). Both, BTW, are fairly safe, rigorously policed (as in
mini-police state) communities. I know LA and much of USA well and also feel
quite safe when I'm there. But this is easily explained because when you're
American you (generally) know where you can safely go, by experience and
instinct. Unfortunately, and sometimes terminally, this is usually not true
for foreign visitors. There are many big USA cities where crossing the wrong
street already puts you in a literally VERY dangerous and different world,
instantly.

I agree, when I'm there. I rarely even think about violence while stateside
unless there's a big story at that moment. There are many nice places and
much to do. At a distance from outside, the sheer randomness and scale of
violence in the USA is rather more worrisome.

Incidentally, although this won't be of much consolation to

Oops!, I didn't know that we weren't supposed to beat
Lars' score.

But had I known, I don't know if I could have
resisted, because it was sooooo easy.

(Just kidding, it took me quite a bit of time to beat
Lars' score, and I am sure my victory will be short
lived. :-)

As for tetris, my best was about 6,000 so I don't know
how I'll ever even come close to challenging the
51,000+ high score.  I guess I'll have to leave it to
those with quicker reflexes than me...perhaps Lars or
Matt will be able to offer better competition for that
one.

Sidney:

I have completed the decoding of the CONTACTS memory section, one of
the biggest gaps in the existing documentation of the Rex format.
Right now I'm working on a program to convert a CDF file from my
phone book into REX format.  Ultimately I hope to have a program
that will do all types of REX data, and one that will read directly
from the palmtop's data bases (e.g., not require an intermediate
step of a CDF file).

It doesn't run under DOS per se, but includes a runtime version of Windows
so you don't have to have Windows installed to run it.

You may want to take a look at the S.U.P.E.R. site. They used to have a

Or are the numbers manipulated by extremists to justify
their message? We saw this rise in Switzerland in the last
election in October (Herr Blocher) and more recently in
Austria (Herr Haider). France has not had a terribly
stellar record in the past either!

The scary thing for me about Zurich, Winterthur, _anywhere_
in Switzerland actually, is "the sheer randomness of the
violence, and that it can happen at any time, anywhere, to
anyone by anybody of nearly any age under any
circumstance."

I acknowledge the lower likelihood of such an event in
Switzerland vs. USA, but your scary view speaks of
randomness of violence. USA does not have all the
randomness in the world! :-) ...

You made no such distinctions before about LA bad cops! :)

   ...snip many atrocities cites! ...

Yes, exactly. You cited the LA times as a reliable source
for condemnation of LA Cops. I think LA Times is guilty as
any of selectivity in stats, citations, and so on. It is a
newspaper and they look for stories that sells. The
selectivity of the stories creates the tension they want:
The story is true, all substantiated. But it is provided on
a a blank background, with no perspective, and thus it
tends to represent the "whole" reality. And that is false.

I have a close friend who lives in Switzerland and lived in
the USA. Despises Velveeta. He speaks about it so much that
it seems like the ONLY cheese in the USA is Velveeta.
Needless to say, he had other, good cheeses here, and where
not, he simply was looking in the wrong places :-) ...

The story about the bad cops is awful, and terribly painful
for the whole police department - and for good reason. But
we are talking about maybe 10, 20 cops out of I think
9,000! So 0.25% of the policeforce is corrupt. I suspect
there is an equal percentage in other, places in the EU,
specifically. (Yes I know it is just _those_ 20 and there
are more... Same argument applies.)

> I'm cynical enough to believe the practice is more widespread than

Agreed. So what? Get the perspective straight, and it is
still scary, but you are talking about a tiny number. Bad
apples are everywhere...

I am not sure it is _more_ violent. It is a much much
larger country than european countries, and maybe the whole
continent (?). It is well connected, and the media has huge
coverage. Therefore you hear more about things like this. I
am not sure that the Swiss crime stats are a lot better
than USA proportinately, but frankly I do not know. Also,
are they measuring the same way?

(And don't anyone think please that I dislike Switzerland -
on the contrary, it is a jewel of a country!)

Same here. Confirm that it was easy as something to connect to the WWW
with 8210 and the WWW/LX suite. I had the same (good) experience when I first
used the 8810.

Most likely (99.9999%) the 8850 will work flawlessly as well.

As the owner of that score :), here are a few tips:
Like the original Tetris, Curtis Cameron's version correctly gives big
bonuses for clearing four rows at a time (with the straight piece).  Also,
you get a lot more points by quickly starting at a higher level.

Good luck!

Do the games play at higher speeds on a double speed LX? I have
an unmodified 4MB 200LX and my high score for Tetris is 458,813
and 508 for Snake.

Wow!

508 for Snake!  At 186 the snake was practically
impossible to avoid, at 508 it must fill the screen!

Bummer :-(  It was there last week. I downloaded it.
I can send it to you if you want, but it's 4 meg. Contact me offline.
Same for anyone else who wants it.
It's very nice.

In response to your email, I have a Nokia 5110 and have just built a cable
to connect it to a PC.   Circuit details are available at
http://www.hut.fi/~ptuomine/nokia/  for those interested.   I have trialled
it under Win98 and it works fine and my next step is to see if it can be
interfaced to an HP200LX.   I can't see why there should be a problem as I
understand the protocol is RS232 at 115K (this has been gleaned through
posted info to various web sites).   If that is the case then it SHOULD be
possible to use an HP200LX to control a Nokia for SMS, data and fax.   The
trick is obviosly to understand the protocol they use.   Can anyone shed
any light on this? Is anyone doing any work in this area?

Leon Phillips

Sms is limited to max 160 characters..but I guess you know that.
Regarding 5110..I know that you can not use it for data because it has
the same internal solution as the 6110. It needs a software modem
(Nokia Cellular Data Suite.)

If sms will work..hmm I would think so. I have not tested this of
course. But I think that the 5110 "talks" irda language on the cable.

So it should be possible to use Andreas Garzotto's sms.scr/Robot/Lx to
work if you have a cableconnection. Stefan's PDU does not work via irda
on my 7110. I can download sms from 7110->Hplx but not send. Stefan
told me that they do not know why. It should work, but does not Work
with Nokiaphones..

The cable you need is a Daup9 I think. It is possible to get cheap.
This cable will work with Logonanager for a lot of things..Nokia
Cellular Data Suite 2.0/3.0 can also be found out there somewhere..

If you get it to work with the Hp you can only use it for sms and not
data So it is more useful with a desktop/Windowssystem.

Regarding the rest of your posting I have nothing to add..

Hi Alberto,

I have been using a Newton keyboard with my 200LX and it works great.
  Admittedly I did have to make up a custom connector (details are
available at www.palmtop.net) to replace the original 6 pin DIN plug (I
think it was 6 pin?).   All that aside, the keyboard works great and you
should be able to pick one up quite cheaply off Ebay.   I paid about $40US
mid last year.   You will also need to download a keyboard program of
www.palmtop.net as well.

Hi friends,

I also had this problem a few months ago, and I solved it by removing
the proxy setting line out of my www.cfg.

Now the problem reappeared again (only sometimes!), and I couldn't
find out why. Maybe it's really because I now use several ISPs instead
of just one, depending on which is the cheapest at the moment I want to
go online.

Hi friends,

recently someone (I think it was Philippe?) posted a message to the
list reganrding 'Digitalpaths', a service that strips all 'bells and
whistles' from web sites and forwards these sites to your browser (s
oit would be ideal for browsing the web with HV).

I tried to access the web via digitalpaths (www.digitalpath.com), but
without success. Now I wrote to the people over there about how to
access the web and here is their answer.

I think I'll point the people to HV and then they can downoad HV and
see if they can get their service to work with HV.

HP has discontinued support for the HP 200LX. We have been having trouble
getting the
browser version that is installed on that device.

If you can find out the browser version, I am sure we can get you access to

Dear Digitalpahts team,

I'm using a palmtop HP 200LX (DOS 5.0) and it would be great for me to
be able to view internet pages without images, frames etc, because the
browser that exists for that machine (HV) doesn't support all these
bells and whistles.

On your "How to use" page (/support/#how) you say that I should point
my browser to www.digitalpaths.net and then enter the URL I want to see
and hit the access button.
Which access button? There is none on www.digitalpaths.net. And there's
also no field to enter an URL. Just a link that links to
www.digitalpath.com.

So, how can I use you great service?

Thanks,

daniel hertrich

I'm currently using a keyboard for the Palm called the PDA Keyboard Pro from
Tec Parts Ltd in Taiwan. It connects to the HP200lx with the HP standard
serial cable and works with the Newton Keyboard driver available on Super or
Mac Baggette's new driver. Anyway, it's available in Japan and I assume
elsewhere. It's pretty equivalent to the Newton keyboard in terms of touch
and I can type on about as fast as I can on a standard keyboard. So far I
had no problems with it. It's available for about $75US at current exchange
rates.

Well,I start with tetlix and try to get back my number one position =
there.

Actually I thought my highscore on the galactic battle  should be more =
longlived,it took quite some time to reach that level.

The score you get for each meal eaten depends on the
level you're on. I played at level 4 so that's only
127 meals. (127*4=508)

Hi Roger and list

I converted the file to txt and then zipped it.. goes down to about a meg..
had it on my LX for quite a while.  I'll post the TXT version to anyone who
wants it.  Or if HTML needed then someone with the PDF version could convert
using the adobe disabled site and post HTML..  I decided on TXT cause it was
a little smaller in size..If my memory serves me well.

I dont think I kept a PDF version.

Cheers

Russell

Hi



Guys,I wonder how on earth is it possible to reach 1600 in tetlix??

My program goes so fast at that level so it is impossible to catch up!

Speaking of the connectivity kit, which has passed to me, so it may not

can't figure the application of this cable.

You can acomplish this by creating a SmartClip in the format you
desire, and then printing all items to  a file using the SmartClip
as the style.

Sounds like you need to point CPack PhoneBook to a different
directory--phone.pdb must not be in the directory CPack is
expecting.

I'm logged in with my old 286, so there's no convenient way
to send you my dir listing.  I'll type it in.  :)


 Volume in drive B has no label
 Directory of  B:\

WNSET_US ARJ   256440   1-17-95   6:21p
WNSET_SP ARJ   272918   1-17-95   6:21p

        4 File(s)    375808 bytes free

So, except for the dates, times, and files sizes, the contents
match pretty well.  I'd say you have the right files.

The most often used browser on the HP200LX is HV (by Andreas Garzotto),
in conjunction with WWW/LX, a TCP/IP engine, also made by Andreas
Garzotto. Both WWW/LX and HV can be downloaded at www.dasoft.com.

It would be great if your service was also usable by the HP200LX
community (which is still large!).

FOR SALE -

EXP Thinfax 1414LXM-8

14k4 bps modem, 14k4 bps FAX, 8 MB Flash RAM on PCMCIA card

I used to have acCIS and other software on the card, but I have
expanded my internal memory, have a larger Flash RAM card, and now
have a 33k6 modem card, So this is sitting around languishing. I have
NEVER had ANY problem with it!

EXP lists it for $239.
1-Stop Palmtop shop offers it for, apparently, $60 OVER list!
Mobile Planet offers it for $220.
I couldn't find anyone else selling it.

I would prefer to sell it to someone close enough that we could meet,
you could see it work, and we could then exchange product and money.
That would be most of Maryland, Delaware, northern Virginia, parts of
Pennsylvania, New Jersey.

If there's no takers that close, we can do C.O.D.

How does $200 sound?

The cable, without any adapters, is a null modem cable and is intended
to connect the HP directly to a desktop/laptop computer.  Now depending
on your desktop, you might need a 9-25 pin adapter or even a gender
changer but not anything that switches electrical lines.

To use that cable with an external modem, you do need to add a null
modem adapter and again, any size or gender changes depending on your
external modem.

The adapters are meant to connect to a modem or other devices.  There
was also a printer adapter (9-25 pins plus probably a line switch or
two).

That's a good question.  Both my LXes are 2x speed, so I can't compare.

Anyone tried using a HTML version with HV?   I tried using it with
Explorer, and
the indexing and links worked very well, but with HV it did not work.
Is there a limit on the
size of HTML files in HV?
The text version is difficult to use because of the size.  And of course
the PDF
version can only be used on a Windows machine.

<<The one advantage to the above is that you can still use the Jornada
keyboard with the Jornada CE machines since the keyboard now has a
standard serial port on it. You will of course need the Jornada cable
to plug into the keyboard, but they all come with one fortunately.>>

Actually, Mack, we decided not to remove the original Jornada cable that
comes with the unit.  So when someone buys a upgraded Jornada keyboard from
us they get:

1.  Your great software that allows the keyboard to be used
2.  Keyboard with Jornada cable and serial cable (that we added).  Then you
plug in a 200LX connectivity cable into the serial cable.

The final version of the software makes the keyboard very easy to use. There
is a FN key on the Jornada that supports all the 200LX functions except cut,
copy, and paste.  Cut, copy, and paste are generated by Windows key X,
Windows C, and Windows V.

Alt serves as the MENU key in system manager.

There are 12 function keys on the Jornada keyboard.

Windows A goes to Appt, Windows P to Phone, Windows M to Memo, Windows & to
MORE, etc.

Unfortunately, we have not been able to obtain 200LX connectivity cables
cheaply in quantity or we would put the 200LX connectivity end as with David
Shier's solution. I spoke with David, but unfortunately, the company he used
to buy 200LX connectivity ends won't do it any more. We're still looking.

The keyboard has a great feel.  Actually, it is the Jornada 820 keyboard,
repackaged.

We sell the solution (without Connectivity cable) for $139 at 800-373-6114,

Perry,
I have the same files on disk 3. I must have a earlier version since my disk
3 files are different sizes and dated 1/17/95.

I've got it up at http://www.hplx.net/david/lxpdf.zip.  If it's a
copyright violation or something, I'll take it down, so anybody who wants
it had better get it soon.

I want to store the backup of my Palm IIIx on my 200lx.  Of course, that
is a meaningless exercise unless I can get the data back to the Palm.  I
know I can't hot-synch but has anyone had success just moving the files
over to the Palm via either the serial cable or IR?

While we are off topic:  anyone knows what happened to the inventory of
Prolinear when
they went out of business?  (Prolinear made several DOS palmtops,
including a 386
model.   Much larger than the HPLX, about the size of a Poqet or a
LIbretto 50).

  *  I thought you could use the Outlook. Synchronise your PalmIIIx to
Outlook, and use the Outlook coverter for 200LX to synchronise with your
200LX. My friend did it and it worked.
The Outlook converter I think is downloadable from S.U.P.E.R
good luck

Thanks Roger,
Nice to have your copy of LX manual. It's good to share with all 200LX
user. I don't think it's copyright violation as every LX came with this
manual. At least I can print a proper one as my original one was broken.
thanks again.
Joe

Hi Folks,

 I heard someone mention a little while ago that they prefer to use Quicken
for DOS v. 7.0 or 8.0 on their 200LX over the built-in Quicken. Can someone
please tell me if there is a fix for the Y2K for v. 7.0? Although you can
still make entries in the register you can't do a report containing dates
prior to 2000 + after (just either prior, or after).
Also dates are reported as: 01/25'00 instead of 01/25/00.

 Thanks.


 -Eric

both of you, just put a FLUFF at the beginning of the subject line and
everyone will be happy

the list does get a bit dry with all the technical stuff, which i must
admit, has helped me a lot in my work, but the human face to the lx users is
what has given me the most pleasure. There are alot!! (learned that from
Scott)  of intelligent and kind members here, and some of them need answers
to life's non-technical complexities. Those usually start on the list, and
then are better to be moved off-list.

there is off course the option of starting a LX-FLUFF-L ;))

as to my palmtop needs, everything is running well, and i have enough new
software to last me a lifetime  -  now i am waiting for HP to come up with a
hands-free version (as in voice recognition).....
so i don't have to pull my bike to the side of the road, or pull the needle

This may indeed be the problem.  I am up for renewal at my current provider
in a couple months, so will probably switch and see if that solves the
problem.  Have you been happy with compuserve?

Myself and other people observed the "blank page display" depending on

While CIS connection displayed the webpages fine with WWW and HV I got
empty pages when I browsed to the same URL with my second ISP. The issue

Ah, that's a nice feature, the PDA Keyboard Pro only has 6 function keys.
Otherwise it works pretty much the same as noted above. Construction quality
may be bit tacky on the one that I have as one of the keycaps fell off
yesterday but it popped back in with no problems.

Hi all.

I did some weekend driving after doing my taxes and hit a small software
shop in SLO that I always check on for old stuff (Software Outlet).

I bought a nice Wetsuit carrying case for the Omnibook 800CT for $10. Price
was marked at $15, so I'm not sure if that was a sale item or if it was a
mistake.

Also saw an infra-red network port by HP which sold for $50. It has both an
IR sensor and a 10baseT connector that I think links it with a LAN.  You're
then supposed to use the IR on your notebook whenever you want to connect.
Pretty neat ... no wires to plug in, but I'm not sure if it works with the
800CT.  Anyone know about this item?

Other things ... I bought some items from a rummage bin:

- 95LX Connectivity kit, by Nuvotech. Contains 1.5 meter cable, software.
  Since the 95LX's port is different from the 200LX, I'm pretty sure this
  won't work on the 100/200LX.

- BitFax/BitCom for DOS V 4.0: looks like basic fax/communications software
  and says it automatically captures HP Laserjet printer output for fax
  transmissions. Works with DOS 3.0 or later.

I haven't opened either shrink-wrapped package, so if anyone knows anything
about these or are interested in buying 'em from me, let me know.  I bought
them mostly to save from the refuse pile, I think.  $10 for either one
(that includes shipping, in the US). Please respond off-list if you're
interested.

They also had Lotus Freelance Graphics, Perspective, Quattro Pro 1.0 SE
for DOS, and Applause... some old presentation graphics stuff.

Also had several nice Dauphin keyboards for $15, tho it came with a PS/2
type connector.  Had a nice feel, tho I don't know how it compares to the
Jornada external keyboard, or if the PS/2 connector can even be made to
work with the 200LX serial port.

You will also find info here about flashmsg for those interested in
that. Also Netmonitor is described on this site..

Well you should be able to use it for something with the Hplx.

Yes so far no problems I guess. (But I do not know, but it seems
logical)

Well its here you run into problems. As I wrote below the 5110 does not
contain any "modem". It needs a softwaremodem to work. Softwaremodems
are either Nokia Cellular Data Suite(winsoftware) or Pcmica Tdk Global
Pulse (which has CE/Palm drivers)

>   The

You should be able to send sms. But what trick you can use to insert a
"modem" into the 5110 I do not know. But good luck. I could be wrong
about my info on the 5110. But what I understand about the 51xx series
is that it has the same internals(or at least the same solution
inside) as the 61** series. That means that it can not be used as modem
eventhough you can connect a cable to it. The cable is for sms and
softwaremodem(+logos/ringtones and stuff like that..)

   Can anyone shed
> any light on this? Is anyone doing any work in this area?

I hope I did. You could probably find some more info on the Nokia
website about what the different models can be used for. But I think
that you may be succesfull with sms/5110. But I do not think that you
will get your 5110 to work as a "modem" as I use the 7110(/8210/8850 +
Sh888 and S25/S35)

Just installed a registered version of WWW and PostLx.  Both seem to be
working great in general.  Have been unable to download a list of newsgroups
from my news server however.  I use the "external Commands" button to
download, it shells to dos and runs NEWS2, and immediately tells me to press
a key to go back to post.  This happens both when I am online and off.  Any
ideas? If I do get a list downloaded, where would I see it?

I do not know why you don't get to download it.. But I would suggest
that you use your desktop pc to download the availible newsgroups. Use
any kind of newsreader. This because the file with all availbe
newsgroups is over 1.5 mb with the provider I used before. The only
thing you need to know is what groups are availible and how they are
spelled. Then you just enter them into Post/lx.

This is the way I have done it, and I use Post/lx as my main computer
for mail/news/+everything else..

I have no idea..but the tip above would "cure" this problem :-))

Thanks, did as you suggested below and can get to the groups.  Just seems

Subject:      Binary file attachements to the List - A solution
MIME-Version: 1.0

On numerous occasions, someone has or produces a nice little program and
wants to share it with list members.

As it is forbidden to post binaries to the list and that SUPER can take some
time to update its site, he usually invites list members to request the file
from him off-list on an individual basis. While this is mostly OK, the
generous list member run the risk of an e-mail overload.

An easy alternative could be to :

  1) upload the file to the free service www.mydocsonline.com
  2) give the file to oneself (see example below)
  3) post the authorization to the list.

The result is easy to use, low bandwith usage, immediate availability of
files and no additional e-mail for the person sharing the file.

Use the link below to give it a try on the HP200LX User manual.

Okay gang,

I finally got my 200LX logged in to the Netware network
at work.  I used the procedure by Nori on hplx.net, with
OP2216, PD2212, PDIPX, and NETX.

So far, I've gotten LXFTP, LXMTA, LXDNS, LXPING, and
LXgFTP to work.  FTP is fast! (825 Kbytes in 46 seconds)

LXMTA only works for POP so far, but that's due to my
network server being closed to relaying and my (remote)
news server not accepting remote logins.

I have had no luck getting LXTELNET to work.  Apparently
I don't have everything configured properly.  It *does*
work just dandy over a dial-up connection, and has for
quite some time.  Any suggestions?

Ted

Hi all

I just sent Zipped txt version of manual (185k Zipped and 617k open) to all
that asked.  I have a lot of email so if I missed you please send me another
message off list with the subject "HPLXMAN" and I'll send to you.

As a project that would be useful I was wondering if this could be put into
a Notes or DB format for use on the LX?

Any comments/volunteers?

Regards

Russell

Have you looked into FlashPro?  It lets you backup about 850k into
the part of the flash that isnt being used by the rom.  I've used it
a lot and so have a lot of other people and it's totally reliable.
After a crash or a screwup or dead battery you just need to be able
to put a copy of FlashPro back on the Palm to copy those files back
to ram.

Also, TRG, who makes FlashPro has an upgrade to 8 meg that also adds
2 meg of flash, giving you almost 3 meg for backup.  Unfortunately
that came out right after I bought my ram upgrade.

You need to add it to www.cfg - something like this (for PPP

ISP_PPP
HTTP_Proxy=3D(your proxy server name)

Hello,

> Have been unable to download a list of newsgroups
> from my news server however..

The first thing I do is set up a newgroup I know is found on
the server I want a list from. I have always been able to set
up the newsgroup: alt.fantasy.er-burroughs. I use this
newsgroup because I enjoy his Mars books and it is a newsgroup
that has a low volume of weekly posts. It is perfect for my
needs to pull down news group list without getting involved in
grabbing all the headers in a much larger newsgroup.

1. Set up a news group you are familiar with.

2. Highlight it using the arrow keys to scroll down to it.

3. Press spacebar to select it.

4. Select ALT-Externals-externals.

5. Choose Download &List of Newsgroups

   At this point if the news group you selected has been setup
   properly, the following message will be displayed.

News2/LX
Internet News Client for HP*00LX

(c) 1999 Alexander Gutfeldt
    Liscensed to D&A Software Inc.

Pal-Libraries: (c), 1996, The Palgroup

News2/LX will be downloading a list of all newgroups
for the server, news.your server.com, in the next online run.

Press a key to return to Post/LX

6. When you return to Post/LX you will see a message in under
   alt.fantasy.er-burroughs, i.e.
   News/LX 2.3   |  **** List of Newsgroups ***
   (this is the request to pull down from the server a list)

7. Go online by pressing F5 key.

8. When this list is finally and completely pulled down,
   there will be another message, for this example, in the
   alt.fantasy.er-burroughs folder reading:
   News/LX 2.3   |  ****  List of Newsgroups ***
   Open this message to find out the filename of the list and
   its path.

9. Close the Post/LX program or shell to DOS and pull up the
   list in your favorite viewer.

I hope I didn't confuse you to much.

Thanks for the great reply and instructions, but it still does not quite
work.  Everything is as you have listed, I do external commmands and hit the
one for down load newsgroups, it goes out to NEWS2 as you list, but noemail
request is generated.

One difference, when I highlight the newsgroup and push the space bar, it
turns the group on or off but does not appear to "select" per se.

When you press the spacebar, the up and download arrows apear. If the
arrows are visible, the newgroup is selected. Once the newsgroup is
selected, choose the Menu calls to download the server's news group
list. then look in the marked newsgroup for the News/LX 2.3 message.
There should be one, which is the request. Now, press online and you
will start to get the list.

I recently had to remove, then reinstall Office 97 including MS Outlook.
When I did, my address book for Outlook and Outlook Express had vanished.
My HP200 portion of the address book is easy to recover using Curis
Cameron's Outlook to HP conversion utility, however, I'm wondering where to
begin looking to restore the other portion of my address book.

I do have backups, but am unsure how or where Outlook (Express) stores their
address books.

Thanks in advance.

Look for the directory c:\Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Address Book.
If it contains a .WAB file, that's your address book file from Outlook
Express.  It's named after the account profile you first created.

If you have any files named *.WA~, then I think they are the backup of the
current file.

Microsoft Outlook is an entirely different matter, and you may find files
for its offline operations stored in the directory C:\WINDOWS\Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook (maybe).  It's possible you will
find files with .OST and .PST extensions from Outlook almost anywhere on the
disk.  If so, they can be opened directly by using Outlook's File|Open
dialog.

Can't do it like this!  But...

You need to specify it in the correct location for this
information. HV "paints" Web documents on the screen. It
does not deal with connections. This is described in the
documentation.

WWW.EXE is the program which connects to the Internet, and
thus it has information about connections. This is stored
in WWW.CFG. Check WWWDOC.TXT.

Hope this makes sense...

What would be the advantage of having it as ?db. If you want to search
the manual I recommed to keep it as text file and to use it with PalEdit
 - directly if you know the exact search string (F4 Find)
 - or together with FIND/LX from www.dasoft.com to do approximate
searches in case you are not sure about the search string. Works neat
and fast :-)

Well - it was OK while I didn't have cell phone acces due to it's

use my Nokia 8810 and simply any of the 3 ISP's I have.

1600? No problems! My highest ever Tetlix score is just over
1800 (amazing what you can accomplish on a seven hour train
journey!) and what I want to know is: Is it actually
possible to get over 2000 points, and does anything special
happen if you do? You're completely right about the speed -
after a certain point, the pieces start whizzing down so
fast, you can't move them more than a couple of times before
they hit the bottom.

Incidentally, I would really love to credit the author of
Tetlix on the site, but unfortunately I've never been able
to find out who wrote the game (I have no idea where I found
it, either) - if anyone does know, please write in.

I may have been the last person to Buy APL-11 for Dos from STSC
next
day they made version 10 available for free.

I purchased it to run on my  hp/100lx. I also have an early version of
"J" on the palmtop, though I seldom run it as no-one has yet
written "J
Interactive" and the astonishingly intuitive and well organized "APL
Interactive" ruined me (i.e. made me lazy), as far as the effort/time
I'm willing to expend to learn a new language, a phenomenon that
also
applies to the nonexistent "K Interactive"

Sure, I miss nested arrays not available on the DOS version ` but
the
hp/lx series is so small and so usable that I can solve a lot of
problems on a train or a plane and transfer the code to Dyalog and
then
just do a couple of "bested array edits" to "pretty up" the code

I just tried the 4MB file. Sent it to the Adobe site, and
saved the result. It was about 880K. Not big for HV :) I
fired it up and it works just fine with HV. It shows
indexing 1489 HV-pages.

Problems with this version of the manual:

1. The keys are nicely imaged in the PDF file, but come out
useless in the HTML, not as images, so it is tough to see.
Someone will have to go through this manaul version and
replace each occurence of K with Up-Arrow or whatever,
to make it understandable... Big job.

2. There are references on each page to the next page, and
it is a bit distracting.

3. There is an index to the pages, at the end, no idea how
this is useful.

Good things: Very detailed index, I believe better than the
manual itself, but not sure.

If this is not a violation of copyrights, this could be a
nice addition to reference information on the palmtop.
Either add small images of the keys or just "textualize"
them :) --- instead of an image of the Enter key, put in
Enter or some other typographical construct.

If images are used for the keys, HV will not flow the text
around them, i.e. the following will happen:


  this is a sentence with and image here of a key cap.

In HV you will see this:

  this is a sentence with and
  image here
  of a key cap.

The sentence will break on both sides sides of the image.
Makes it harder to read.

Screen images would be terrific, but finding them, and
uploading them is a big job.

I am no lawyer, but this is probably a violation of the
copyright. One reason is that if you give it to someone,
you have no way of knowing if that person actually has
purchased a legal copy of the palmtop and manual. I suspect
you probably also don't want to get into that type of
investigation, anyway...

The second reason, much more compelling IMHO, is that the
copyright protects the person/entity which owns the
copyright from anyone making any copy of this material and
re-publishing it. Making another copy of the manual in PDF
format violates the copyright right there. Making it
available to anyone else is a violation of the copyright
because it is tantamount to publishing the same material
(albeit in another format).

Imagine you write a great song and copyright it. It is only
printed in a book somewhere, but is very popular among
readers. Someone copies the words and puts the music, and
the song becomes an instant success. The violation is that
material was taken that does not belong to the taker, its
format was changed, and it was published.

As to whether HP will go after someone who publishes this
material or not is probably a tough call. Their case is
somewhat diminished because they announced officially they
will cease manufacturing the 200LX, and so this limits the
extent of their claim to damages. So they may win a lawsuit
and get 1 penny in damages. But defending against such a
suit will cost a nice chunk of change.

Again, I am no lawyer, so it is wise to find out from a
professional, not from me! :-) ...

Prepare a clip definition for the format of the text file, then use
print to file with that clip definition to export your phone book data.

To activate your existing phone book file, in the file-open menu check =
the
(sub)directory you copied the file to, or just fill in the complete
path with the filename.

Subject:      DOS Gate 1.14
Content-Type: text/plain
Mime-Version: 1.0

I've been trying to get DOS Gate 1.14 to work with my palmtop and 486 PC.  I got this program from a DOS file archive, garbo or simtel I think.  I'm not sure how widespread this program is or was, but if you aren't familar with it, it's a program that allows you to control a DOS machine remotely via serial port.  I've been trying to set it up to allow me to use my Palmtop as a terminal to issue remote commands and all the other things it seems to be capable of doing, but I haven't had much luck.  I'm having problems understanding what exactly needs to be done, there is quite a bit of documentation that comes in the zip file, but there seems to be no start or end point to the explaination of it all.  I don't know if I need to run a client program on the palmtop or what, I haven't seen one, and it makes no mention of exactly how the connectivity is set up in the docs.  Has anyone used this program before, or can anyone offer help otherwise?
Thanks,
CT

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

Dear fellow LXers,

I want to thank everybody who has contributed to enlighten me
about DGPS. It was such a wealth of information that I could
narrow this gap considerably in a matter of hours.

For my survey problem I searched for and found a shop that
hires out GPS receivers for survey purposes. The renter takes
a GPS and walks the plot to establish a track. During the same
period, the shop creates another series of data at their
location which are compared to their known geographical
position. When returning the unit the GPS data are downloaded
and confronted with the shop's series and corrected
accordingly. The renter takes a diskette with the corrected
series home and can then process those data, e.g. calculate
surface areas etc. Error is supposed to be one meter only.

The thread on the list was very interesting. I learned in the
process that errors for normal GPS reception are indeed plus
minus 100 meters (thanks, Curtis!), due to the Department of
Defense invoked "Selective Availability" (SA). It is indeed
"goofy" as Tim Shephard says, that one US government agency
spoils the signal and the other (Coast Guard) sends a
correction.

However, I also read in one of the sources on the WEB
(www.tapr.org/tapr/html/w3iwidgpstuorial.html), that if the
DoD turned off Selective Availability performance would not be
better than 10 to 20 meters accuracy anyway, and that DGPS
performance is, in fact, better than can be achieved by
undisturbed GPS alone. But then, of course, the military would
have to correct too, is this the case or do they have access
to "better" data ? Still mysterious for me. And when they have
to correct as well, why do they maintain SA, when a
correction signal from a landbased radio, from satellites and
even from the Internet can compensate and even improve every
user's accuracy ?

And, more to the LX-topic,

(1) can anybody tell me how I can download data from my Apollo
Precedus with a DOS program directly to the LX instead of
having to go via the windows program that came with the GPS ?
I will, of course, check with the manufacturer as well.

(2) Another interesting question is if it is possible to make
the LX, combined with a mobile phone, a base station to
receive DGPS correction signals from the INTERNET and feed
these to the GPS into its DGPS socket instead of the "windows
computer" that is required currently or the staggered process
of two data series which are later compared ? The INTERNET
signal, of course, would have to come from a source that is
not too far away from users, that is, in my case, it cannot
come from San Francisco but from Europe somewhere..

Thanks again for the experience !
Best regards
Winfried

I'm using the TopSpeed C compiler, which produces pure small model code for
8086 compatibles (I programme mostly for the Psion 3 series).  I assume that
the small model is used for .exm (AppManager) programmes.  Do I need special
headers, and are these included in the SDK?  Is it worth buying, and/or does
someone have it for sale?
Thanks
Stuart

for those interested in this topic, there was a Scientific American article
about it, describing IIRC an accuracy up to 2cm-(<1 in.
Feb, 96 I think

HP has placed all their manuals for the Omnibook 800CT on their web
site. I don't see how the 200LX manuals would be any different. I would
reason similarly that HP would put them on their site since it is out of
production.

Terry,

I would try to loosen up that hinge a bit.  Experience has
taught me to keep the hinge just tight enough to stay in
place while open.  On tight ones I have added a drop of
household 3 & 1 oil to the right hinge (after removing the
hinge cap).  You might have to do this more than once to get
loose enough.  If it gets too loose a drop or two of
Isopropyl (Rubbing Alcohol) can reverse the process.  =Bob=

There has been much discussion on the subject. I think Robert Hocking
(are you listening?) has given the most input indicating a bit of WD40
to loosen and alcohol to tighten. My warranty replacement hinge was very
tight. Worked for me. If it seems too loose, will probably tighten to
just right after a day or so.

My original unit (sent back to HP built in '97 as I recall) had the
nicest screen. My current one and new spare is not quite as nice.

Subject:      Fluff: QNXDEMO

Hi All,

Many moons ago, someone posted about their experience with QNXDEMO, which
is a whole operating system and web browser on a single floppy disk. I
can't remember who posted about it or what website held that zip file for
download, but his report on it was that it worked for him and that it was
truly amazing..

Anyway, today I decided to make a QNXDEMO disk from those stored files
and check it out for myself on my desktop computer. The makedisk process
seemed to work fine and it's check function showed no errors, but when I
booted up with that disk, I got:

OS Checksum bad

OS failed

I've tried to build a new QNXDEMO disk and boot from it many times but I
keep getting the same error.

Does anyone know where I could find that web site so I can try
downloading the qnxdemo.zip file again and/or write to it's author?

Thanks in advance,

John Vander Stel
Grand Rapids, Michigan

Express 4 to Outlook Express 5 and from Win95 to Win98 and I wasn't
able to restore.  I called Microsoft support (free for 90 days with
my new Win98 OEM) and he talked me through handling the version
changes.  It worked out just fine.

Hi John

I played with this after my son showed it to me (seems like a  loooong time ago).

I just did a search and found the following link for the current 1.44meg demo.

http://www.qnx.com/iat/index.html

The earlier file worked for me and was pretty amazing to see what they packed into a
single floppy.  I haven't tried the new file, but will probably do it since being
reminded of it, Thanks!  It's not like I don't already burn too much time on the
internet.

It seems that Excel ver. 2.1c requires run-time Windows, and cannot run in pure
DOS.

It appears that the only change between 2.1b and 2.1c was the addition of Win
3.0 compatibility, and the only change between 2.1 and 2.1b was the inclusion of
run-time Win 2.11.

This information is from Microsoft:
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q66/9/13.asp

BTW, does anyone know where I might find Excel 2.1? I have 2.01, which uses an
extra 40k of RAM (which I don't have to spare when launching Excel from
XFinder).

I do not know if these include the runtime version of Window$. If they
do then You can run any window$3.0 file from there.
Just have the directory in Your path and make sure You run DosVer from
super from Your Autoexec.bat.
You also have to run it from MaxDos if You dont whant to close sysMgr.

Realy - Stick with Lotus 123 and Memo. They are kind to Your hp.

I have mixed feelings and reactions about the 200LX manual, and I hesitated
to say anything.

HP has not relinquished the copyright, and without their permission, no one
has the right to reproduce it or make it available.

From a businessman's point of view we (Thaddeus Computing) worked long and
hard to get permission from HP and then scan in the 200LX manual for our CD
Infobase.

On the other hand, HP has always been very liberal about allowing manuals to
be reprinted after a product has been discontinued. Through the years both
Educalc and we had permission to do so on various HP products.

Yes I had posted on this subject quite a while back.  Great
memory though, what did you do, record this in your LX?  :-)  I
have not had anything to comment on for quite sometime now,
bummer!

I went through a wave of bad used (refurbished) 200LX's that I
received from HP's express exchange program.  I had received
about five units, that each had something different wrong with
them, that had to be sent back to HP, until finally HP agreed to
send me a brand new one.

Once they even accidently sent me someone elses LX that was sent
in for repair.  The whole bottom was covered in velcro, and that
is when I knew there was something not right with this unit.  It
still had all their personal data on it.  I even got the paid
receipt for their repair, showing which credit card they used to
pay for it.  Woops!

Of the many units I had received, each had different hinge
tensions.  Some were just right, some were too loose, and some
were too tight.  One of the units had a hinge way too tight.  I
decided that this unit would be a good one to experiment on,
because I knew that this unit was going back to HP, because it
had other problems with it.

I removed the right side hinge cap, and examined the make up of
the right side hinge.  It is a steel pin, in the center, that is
fixed to the base of the LX, surrounded by a rubber bushing,
that rotates around the steel pin, connected to the lid.  The
left side hinge is just plastic rotating around plastic, and
offers only a pivot, without any resistance.

The right side hinge cap can easily be removed by having the lid
open about half way, and then using the finger nails of your
thumb and forefinger (index, pointer), to pop the hinge cap off.
Once the right side hinge cap is removed, you will see the steel
pin, and the rubber bushing.

I put the LX up on edge, with the AC jack facing upwards.  I
then sprayed some WD-40 into the cap of the WD-40 can, until I
got enough liquid in the cap, to stick something into the liquid
in the cap.  If I recall, I used a toothpick, to form a very
small droplet, on the end of the toothpick, and then dropped the
droplet, in between the steel pin, and the rubber bushing.

Still keeping the LX on its edge, I worked the lid, by opening
and closing the lid, until the WD-40 worked its way in.  It made
closing the lid much easier.  In my opinion, one of the main
contributing factors of the hinge crack forming, is units that
have hinges that require excessive pressure to close the lid, in
which the plastic case surrounding the hinge, just can't take
the excessive repeated stress, and then gives way.

I would be willing to bet, that if there was a gauge that could
be made, that would measure the force required to close all the
lids, of all the people, who have had their LX's for years, but
have never developed a hinge crack, and then compared those
baseline measurements, to all the people who have developed a
hinge crack, that their hinges are just too tight.

The real problem is a lot of users only have one unit, so they
have nothing to compare the hinge tension in their unit to.  It
was only when I had my hands on the many LX's, that had to be
returned, that I discovered the difference in hinge tensions.  I
even had one unit who's lid was so loose, that it would close, or
open, all by itself.

To experiment on the unit with the loose hinge, I did the
opposite of using oil, and used a tiny drop of rubbing alcohol.
It worked like a charm.  It put the tension of the lid just
where I feel it should have been.  I feel the correct tension,
is just enough to keep the lid from closing or opening, by
itself.  Anything more could lead to a hinge crack.  Anything
less is only a slight inconvience
.

I now own three LX's, but really only use one.  I bought a spare
in case my primary unit ever failed, and then a co-worker had
another unit for sale, that I just couldn't turn down the price
of, so now I have three.  All three of my current units have
perfect hinge tensions, so I don't fear the dreaded hinge crack,
and have been lucky enough not to ever have had one.  Hope this
helps.

Perhaps you could include the PDF and HTML versions on the Infobase CD as

Hello,

As Avi reminds me from time to time <bg>, the documentation is
accessed by pressing the F1 key for context sensitive help or
CTRL+F1 keys to access the Index of all topics. There is
another way to access the document. I used the docify.exe
program that is located in the WWW directory to create an html
version of the entire document which I have read in its
entirety. At the prompt, type:

 docify posthelp.I html (this will produce HV HTML document)
                             or
 docify posthelp.I 58 (this will create a printable txt file)

It really helped me to have the HTML document loaded in HV. I
actually read the entire manual <g>.

Hi Eric,

The above URL gives Intuit's position regarding Quicken for DOS Y2K
issues.  It also points to where you can get the latest Quicken for DOS,
Version 8, Release 7 for free.

As far as the reporting problem, I ran into that too when I tried to
export data from last year to do my taxes.  Although I haven't tried it
yet, I thought I would reset the date on my PC to 12/31/99 and try the
export again.

Hi John,

 Thanks very much, I'll check it out.

 I discovered a fix for the problem, it's not pretty but it seems to work.

 You can do a report from 1999-2000. Here's how:

 Choose Custom date for the report and enter the following:
  From 6/30/99  To 6/30'00   (adjust to dates needed)

 In other words if you replace the last "/" with an "'" it will work.

 For all future reports (2000 and on) just insert "'" before  the year 00 or,
  From 6/30'00  To 6/30'01    (etc.)

A BIG SORRY to everyone whom I sent Excel to.  I personally have never
tried out this package until today (I run Excel under Win3.0 on the
200LX).  It seems it doesn't work!!!  I'll fiddle around with it some more
to see if I can get it going.  So, don't waste your time with it.

Yes -- that's what Intuit says about year 2000 dates in the DOS versions
of Quicken at that site.  Use the ' notation for dates in the 2000's.

Well, being that the error that I and others got when running Excel was
"Incorrect DOS version" I figured that I needed to run SETVER.EXE.  There
is a copy of SETVER in the .zip archive I sent out.  In your CONFIG.SYS
file, add the line:
device=a:\excel21\setver.exe
Change the pathname as necessary.  Once you do this, you're set to go!
You may need to use MAXDOS or terminate the system manager, depending on
how much DOS memory you have available.

Cheers.

If any of you use EndNote on your desktop, there is a free DOS program
which will let you read your library files on the palmtop.  Here is a nice
story about how someone uses it:
http://www.isiresearchsoft.com/en/App_Note6.htm
If you don't know what EndNote is, go to:
http://www.endnote.com
Basically, it's a bibliography tool for research papers.  It also lets you
create libraries of references from web literature searches.  It
automatically plugs into your word processor to insert references as
needed.  I used it a lot on some scientific publications as well as on my
PhD thesis.
I am currently talking with the ISI Research people who make EndNote to
see if they can release the full DOS version of EndNote.  I'll let you
know if I get a positive response.
The viewer file (EN_VIEW.EXE) and (EN_VIEW.TXT) are available via FTP at:
ftp://ftp.endnote.com/pub/pc/utilities/

Thanks for the detail info Robert, makes me think that perhaps I should look

I want to keep this unit because of the better screen, so it's worth taking

Hi, All.

I have a DS 8MB HP200LX and I want to transfer SMS message to Ericsson GSM
Phone CF768 + DI 27.

I tried several ways.

1) IR.EXE

2) WWW/LX2.1a+Robot/LX1.1d+Post/LX2.2+phone.scr, sms.scr

3) WWW/LX2.1a+Robot/LX1.1d+Post/LX2.2+PDU.COM

Unfortunately, I didn't get any successful result with them.

Does anyone know what is the best way to transfer SMS message with my phone?

My carrier is Omnipoint and I can send and receive regular e-mail in SMS
format.

Thanks

IZU

What about the links?  Do they work for you?

By keys do you mean links?  They look just fine on Explorer, but look
like a mess of codes on HV (not the nice underlined links I expected to
see).

I seldom use HV, so maybe I am missing something.

I have a copy of Spanish Assistant v5.1 for DOS for sale. It comes
complete with box, user's guid, 3-1/2" & 5-1/4" disks. It is pretty slick
software and will translate from English to Spanish or Spanish to English
by reading ASCII files. It also has a pop-up TSR program that acts as a
dictionary and has conjugations for over 3,000 verbs which is a BIG help
if you are ever having to write something in Spanish. I would like to get
$20 for it and I'll pay the Priority Mail shipping (CONUS).

I'm researching alternatives to HTML for reference material on the
palmtop.  So far the only real alternatives I've found are Folio Views and
Norton Guides.  Of these, Views seems to have smaller files and faster
search times, but the viewer isn't really great for the palmtop.  Oh, and
the Online Bible format might be useful, and it has a viewer for the
palmtop already, but I haven't been able to find any information on the
format of the OLB files.  Does anybody have any other ideas for
reference-material software?

I have the original IBM APL installed on my HP200.  I haven't done a lot

Did you get the free STSC version of APL working on the HP200?

You may be running out of memory.  Some folks use it under Software
Carousel and others under Maxdos.

You you will need to terminate sysmgr before trying to run the suite.


Save open files in sysmgr like phone, appt, etc.  Then press:

&,menu,a,t, okay

then try running it.

good luck

Hi David,
I think the best choice is "norton guide".
There are a lot of programs available for reading and
compiling.
Also, with the NG you have a lot of option, like
resident or non resident reader.
I just found a 123lotus NG.

Has Norton (or Symantec) ever released Norton Guides as freeware, or is it
just unavailable?  From what I've seen, it's not very good with searching.

Yes - you have full functionality. The only limitation is the 16k
transfer limit.

First try to check the doc's and Help files included, then come back
and ask giving us more detail.

Hi friends,

regarding the Digitalpaths service, I got the following answer from the
digitalpaths support:

Daniel,

I need to know how the browser used by the HP200LX identifies itself to web
servers. Once we know that, we may be able to provide some support. We do
not have access to an HP200 to load the browser and run it against our
server in order to find out this information. Could you take your HP200 and
go to http://www.digitalpaths.net? Then let me know what day you did this. I
will look at our logs for that day and see how the browser identifies
itself. I'm assuming you are running the HV browser. Once I capture this
information, I'll see what we can do.

Thanks,
Bernie Aua

I'll visit their site with HV now. Since we all probably have got the
same version of HV, please do not visit this site now, because this
could confuse them. I'll do it with version 2.2a. If anyone has another
version, you could visit the site with that version.

If you don't know what digitalpaths is, read about it on
www.digitalpaths.com. Seems to be a real promising service for browsing
the web with HV!

Hi!

Is there somewhere a feature-list of the norton guide format? For example: The
windows expertguide-reader switches to other hypertext-pages by pressing enter
on a line (on a line by line basis), not on a link (one or a few words) like in
HTML=2E I think this could be a limitation=2E=20=


Also it seems, that you have no structure in it, except the main menu tree and
its childs=2E=20=
But I have to say, that HTML has no structure at all=2E Is this more flexible, or
bad?!?

Graphics are not possible=2E

What I like is, that it is easy to browse and that the pages are bundeled (even
you cannot link to another guide)=2E The guides are very small=2E

It seems, that we have to develope one more new hypertext system=2E   ;-)

Yup. It was a loooong time ago when that was posted. Thanks for the URL,

<<As to whether HP will go after someone who publishes this
material or not is probably a tough call. Their case is
somewhat diminished because they announced officially they
will cease manufacturing the 200LX, and so this limits the
extent of their claim to damages. So they may win a lawsuit
and get 1 penny in damages. But defending against such a
suit will cost a nice chunk of change.>>

As I understand it, mostly from newsgroup posts over the years, a
copright holder is forced to protect against copyright infringements
even that it might not care about.  If they don't, that can be used
as evidence against them in cases they do care about.  I think it
can be used to show that they don't object to other people using
things they have copyrighted, or something like that.

On the ubiquitious other hand, some of it gets a little silly.  I
wouldn't hesitate to make a copy of a manual and giving it to
someone who I thought was entitled, if I wanted to.  But no wanting
to get in trouble, I wouldn't normally make the offer in a newsgroup
or mailing list.  I'd do it in private mail.

Just guessing, but I suspect that most people at HP would be happy
that a deserving person got a manual and they weren't bothered, as
long as they don't know about it.  On the other hand, if they don't
know about it how happy can it make them?  :)

I've had that worry about every new HP palmtop I ever got.  I've had

When I get a new one the hinge always seems dangerously tight.  Then
in a few weeks it's normal.  I get used to it that way and then when
I get a new one again, it seems really tight.

I'd give it a little time.

Subject:      Simple Macro question - ToDo to Appt
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hi all.

This is a simple one.  I typically have things on my ToDo list (including
F3/notes for each item) and when I get around to doing them, I like to move the
item to Appt and log the time it was done.

The problem is that simple Fn-Cut(or Copy) and Fn-Paste between ToDo and Appt
don't really work well, so I tried to write a macro to do so.  It assumes that
I'm in ToDo and the item I want moved is already highlighted.  What I try to do
is:

- Grab the Description line, goto Appt, open a new appt and paste in the
Description

- Go back to the ToDo item, grab the note, go to the Appt and paste the note in
there

- The new appt is left as an event because most of the time I do this transfer
way after the time when the item was done and didn't want to just plug in the
current time as the "Start Time" because it'd be wrong anyway.

- After the entry is done, I manually enter the start time.

<< My problem >>: I can't seem to grab the note from the ToDo using what I'd
normally do (Shift-Ctrl-End to select all of the text) ... the macros don't seem
to allow the Shift-Ctrl combo.  When I try to use the macro "record" feature
(F8), it records my Shift-Ctrl-End as simply {Ctrl+End} which selects nothing.

My kluge is to copy the entire item (highlight the Todo and Fn-Copy) and paste
it into the note of the appt, then delete the headers in the note which are a
fixed number of lines each time.

Does anyone else have a better "generic" macro to do this (Buddy is NOT
allowed).

My current kluge macro is programmed as Fn-F4:

{Enter}{Copy}{F9}n{F9}{F2}{Paste}{Tab}{Del}{F10}{F10}{
Copy}{F9}{F3}{Paste}{Ctrl+Home}{Shift+Down}{Shift+
Down}{Shift+Down}{Shift+Down}{Shift+Down}{Shift+Down}{
Shift+Down}{Shift+Down}{Del}{F10}

The breakdown:

{Enter}             ; puts the todo into edit mode with all text in description
highlighted
{Copy}              ; copy the text
{F9}n{F9}      ; cancel edit, respond "no" to warning prompt, go to Appt
{F2}{Paste}{Tab}{Del}    ; create a new appt, paste in the description, clear
the start time
{F10}{F10}          ; save the entry, go back to ToDo
{Copy}{F9}{F3}{Paste}    ; copy the entire todo, go to Appt, edit the note,
paste in the entire todo

{Ctrl+Home}{Shift+Down} ; all the rest just deletes the header that got copied
over and saves it
{Shift+Down}{Shift+Down}
{Shift+Down}{Shift+Down}
{Shift+Down}{Shift+Down}
{Shift+Down}{Del}{F10}

More elegant solutions are eagerly awaited.  Thanks.

My apologies to those who went to the Intuit site and could not find
Q/DOS V8.  Apparently, they are now only offering Quicken Deluxe 98 for
Windows.  When I visited this site before the end of the year, Q/DOS V8
was being offered, too.  Sorry.

I've been using Expert Help from Sofsolutions for a while. From what I
can tell it is free. It works with NG files and also comes with a
compiler, decompiler etc. to make your own files. Works much better than
the NG clones I have found. The complaints I have are screen colors
(which you can change, but I haven't found a way to show all attributes),
and the simple linking structure, just like NG.

On simtel (http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/hypertxt.html) there
are a number of hypertext programs available which I've looked at some.

I tried NGX10d and AXGD??? some time ago but had problems with both. I
seem to recall they worked with small files, but couldn't handle big ones.

One package that seemed very promising was HLPDK but the screen colors are
also a problem. I haven't found a way to adjust them at all.

I've been looking at Blackmagic a lately. The install didn't work for me,
but I was able to install manually. It does have some nice features
including several types of links: normal links (that can appear anywhere
in the text) and that jump to another section, note links which pop up
a small window of information on the screen, and links to other files. It
also supports inline graphics. Commands are not very intuitive, but the
features may make up for this. I need to look at it more.

If you try any of the others, I'd like to hear your comments.

My macro saves the note to a temp file, and then inserts it
into the new note.  Definitely a kluge, relative elegance
open for speculation.

{Enter}{Copy}{F3}{F2}c:\_dat\tmp-note.txt{Enter}{F10}{F10}{Del}
{Enter}{F9}{F2}{Paste}{F3}{F3}c:\_dat\tmp-note.txt{Enter}{F10}{Tab}

This macro leaves the cursor at the Start Time field, as I
am generally converting a ToDo to an appointment once I've
scheduled it.  It *does* leave an extra file (tmp-note.txt)
hanging around, but that doesn't bother me.     Too much.

I stole the note-copying logic and wrote the temp note to the directory that I

Daniel,

This is how your browser appears to have identified itself:

WWW/LX 2.1e

Try going to www.digitalpaths.net again. I have added the browser to one of
our Palm configurations. This time you should get a start page that allows
you to enter a URL. Try it out and see if you can browse web pages. It is
possible you may have a problem and I may have to use a different
configuration. Please let me know how it goes.

Dear Digital Paths support team,

I just visited www.digitalpaths.net with HV version 2.2a. Version 2.2a
ist the latest version of HV, but I think there are also other versions
used, and maybe they identifiy themselves in another way. Wo I wrote to
the mailing list that cares about the palmtop and its hard- and
software and told the people who have other versions of HV to also
visit www.digitalpaths.net.
Hope that they are not too much ;-)

It's now 10:03 am MET (=09:03 GMT; see date line of this email).
I visited digitalpaths.net approx. 2 minutes ago.

Thanks for your efforts,
I'm looking forward to hear from you

19 units, HP LAN to IRDA  check out E-bay Item #266710959
I'm hoping that if I get some of you guys interested in this that someone
will figure out how to make it work with my 200LX.

technology is the answer, what was the question?


     Establishing the connection is as simple as placing the
     portable PC within three feet of NetBeamIR LAN access point:
     The connection is made in seconds.

     "HP's NetBeamIR LAN access point is the easiest solution for
     connecting a laptop to a network," said Nick Lippis, president
     of Strategic Networks Consulting, Inc. "It is so hassle-free that
     mobile users will want to connect to the LAN the minute they
     get into the office."

     "We're making life easy for mobile professionals by
     eliminating the need for cables to access the network," said
     Gary McAnally, general manager of HP's Roseville (Calif.)
     Networks Division. "And, for network administrators, we've
     eliminated the complexities associated with current solutions
     such as PCMCIA cards, parallel adapters and wireless LANs."

     NetBeamIR LAN access point connects directly to any 10Base-T
     or 10Base-2 Ethernet network at speeds up to 4
     megabits-per-second (Mbps). The software needed to
     establish an infrared connection from the portable PC to
     NetBeamIR LAN access point is built into Windows 95. Any
     Windows 95-compatible network operating system works with
     NetBeamIR LAN access point, including Novell NetWare,
     Windows NT and LAN Manager, and IBM LAN Server.

     Using NetBeamIR LAN access point for LAN access has two
     secondary benefits for portable PC users. First, the infrared
     port on the portable PC needs minimal power to operate.
     Mobile professionals can stay connected to the network with
     very little additional drain on battery power. Second, using
     NetBeamIR LAN access point frees a PCMCIA slot on the
     portable for other uses.

     Infrared Standard Brings Compatibility, Reliability and Speed
     Because NetBeamIR LAN access point complies with the
     Infrared Data Association (IrDA) standard, it can be used with
     any brand of portable PC equipped with an IrDA-compliant
     infrared port. Leading industry analysts say that more than 75
     percent of mobile computers shipped in the United States in
     1996 include an infrared port. Now it's 1999, you do the math!

     IrDA compliance also delivers a high degree of reliability as
     data is being transferred. NetBeamIR LAN access point
     monitors for interruptions in the link and ensures data integrity
     if the link is broken.

     Under the IrDA standard, NetBeamIR LAN access point
     operates at 4Mbps, 1Mbps or 115Kbps. Like a modem,
     NetBeamIR LAN access point negotiates to the highest
     common speed with the portable PC upon connection. At
     4Mbps, NetBeamIR LAN access point can send a 1MB file in
     approximately three seconds.

  1) You don't show when you're loading the extended C: driver to support
the 32meg C: drive.  It needs to be loaded before the lines shown in your
sample.

  2) Do you have a "lastdrive=???" line in your config.sys file?  If not,
try adding a line with "lastdrive=i" (minus the quotes) before loading the
jam.sys driver.

  Does that help any?

Me too. I jam about 13mb of a 24 mb card and about 3.5 mb of the

Well good so far..

Hmm since you have a 32mb version there is some swapping going on. Your
orginal c drive is swapped to F drive and the 32 mb fdrive is swapped
to C is that correct?

Here is mine:

device=c:\progs\jam\jam.sys /m=2
device=c:\progs\jam\jmount.com c:\pack1
rem device=c:\progs\jam\jmount.com a:\pack2
Lastdrive=G

What does the /m do In your setup? I do not think that you need to tell
jam what drive you want that jamdrive to be. I have never done it like
that anyway, but maybe it works..

The jamdrive on the Cdrive is G: and the jam drive on A is F.


Maybe you need a Lastdrive statment in your config.sys? Try to increase
it to Lastdrive=i. I am not sure if this is done automaticly if not
set..

I agree.  I'd be interested also as to whether there's a macro repository of
some sort.

I didn't see one in palmtop.net's database nor in SUPER.

Could be that Buddy fulfills most people's needs, or that many macros are unique
to the habits of their authors.

I don't use many myself, and don't have "chained" macro files for different
apps.  Mine are:

1) Indent text with a tab  (I do this all the time, and also use it to check
things off a list)

2) Mark Quicken transactions as "cleared" (when I'm balancing my check book)

3) Close all applications and present a clean AppMgr screen (gets me back to
maximum memory)

4) Copy ToDo item to Appt  (vs Ted's which does a Move)

5) Imprint date in YY/MM/DD format  (vs the default MM/DD/YY .... I use both,
othewise I'd just set the format in Setup to YY-MM-DD)

6) <unused>

7) Close all applications and begin nightly backup

8) City-1 (used with GCIRCLE.WK1 to calculate city distances. Designates the
"from" city)

9) City-2 (used with GCIRCLE.WK1 to calculate city distances. Designates the
"to" city)

10) Terminate Application manager and go to DOS

I presume they're applying corrections based on the individual satellite
signal errors not on the resolved known position, since you may not be
receiving all the same satellites due to various forms of interference and
signal blockage.

The Coast Guard isn't part of DoD, but of Department of Transportation,
except in time of war. Coast Guard's DGPS correction signals are only
available locally around navigable waters in the US. The WAAS (Wide Area
Augmentation System) which the FAA (also part of DoT) will provide signals
usable for en-route navigation across the country.

The remaining uncertainty is due to atmospheric, topographic, and
ionospheric conditions affecting the signals from the different satellites.

DoD and other authorized users have access to the encrypted "P" Primary
code. Basic GPS receivers available to the civilian market can only receive
the unencrypted "C/A" Coarse/Acquisition code. As the name implies, it is
intended to give a rough fix, which the "P" code will narrow down to a
couple of meters. The "P" code is also more resistant to jamming than the
C/A code is.

Set the Apollo to NMEA 0183 output 4800 bps and connect it to the 200LX,
using the DataComm application to capture the data in real time. There
should be some documentation available from Apollo discussing signals needed
to up/download waypoints and tracks after the fact.

You may be running out of ports to do all that. You need a port for the
signal from the base to the LX and an additional one from the LX to the GPS.
Then there's the question of processor overhead in formatting the signal
correctly and the signal delay of the base - internet - ISP - cell
provider - towers - cell phone signal path. Add in all the cables you'll be
harnessed with, too and it may not be worth it except as a dancing dog.
Unless you really need real-time precision, I'd rely on post-processing.

Gentlemen,

This is my shameless plug of the month, not altogether different from the Paypal
we saw a few weeks ago. BTW, thanks for the tip: Paypal works really great!

This one is about Free DSL service. If I get ten people to register and download
the news ticker app that comes with it, I'll get a free DSL modem too. Take a
look at it, and if that sounds good to you, you can register and do the
download/install. I don't believe there are any commitment at any time. If you
see anything that leads you to believe this is not a good deal, please let me
know and I'll post a retraction.

You might want to see if they can make that www/lx reference a bit more
generic, if they copied that exactly, so that slight changes in version
number do not throw it off???

As I may have been the last person to buy version 11 just before
version 10 was released as freeware) I did manage to get version
11 working

not  much of a difference twixt versions 10 and 11

some one had a utility to turn MSDOS *.fon files into fonts on the
200lx .. and if I could find the utility  i could use the APL "softfont"
instead of being forced to use the "graphics" font

Does it work?  I have that too, v1.00, and the manual claims that it
needs an IBM Personal Computer Math Co-Processor, which I take to
mean an 8087.  So I haven't yet tried installing it on the palmtop.

Hmm I have said on this group that all Ericsson models that can use the
ir dongle (Di27/Di28) should work. But I think that you have just
proven me wrong.

Can you use the Hplx/Ericsson for data to connect to your isp? Do you
get "Talking with Ericsson CF768" or something like that at all?

You have ofcourse ran WwW.exe with a irconfiguration before you ran
ir.exe? You will not be able to talk with any irdaphone if you have not
ran a ir setup in the Ww.cfg. But I guess you have added one?

> 2) WWW/LX2.1a+Robot/LX1.1d+Post/LX2.2+phone.scr, sms.scr

Same here..if you run Www.exe with a ir setup it should work.(if not it
will not work :-)

If you are sure you have a correct ir setup in Www.cfg and everything
else is okey, then maybe the Ericsson uses other AT commands to send
sms. You could try to find a AT command set file for the Ericsson you
have. There you could read and compare the sms.scr.

Well using the hplx is one way..but if you can not use it you could
have a look at Ericsson's Chatboard which is a small keyboard that you
connect at the bottom of your phone. I have no idea if it can be fitted
to your phone. It is just realesed here in Norwa/Europe. Pretty cheap
about $30.

I have understanded that sms/gsm technology is quit new over there?
Pagers and carphones are "in", but portable phones are not widespread,
is this true?

Good luck with your Ericsson/Hplx.

Hi! I also have 95LX 1MB Ram :-))
You can use TERM 95 from Norton Commander.
Check ftpsearch.lycoos.com , you'll find few ftp sites with 95LX software.
For example:    ftp://wu-wien.ac.at /pub/systems/hp200lx/super/95LX

Daniel,

Great job to have made digitalpaths accessible with WWW/LX.

Nettamer is the other 200LX compliant browser. It is very good for E-mail
but not very appropriate for web browsing. Do you think that digitalpaths
could make it more usable ?

If you have Nettamer, are you willing to take on the task of contacting
digitalpaths again or do you prefer somebody else to do it ?

From HELP.PIM
+. Not Yet Confirmed Items

If you want to mark an appointment as temporary, i.e. not yet
confirmed, add a line such as "+?". Such items are rendered
specially within the PIM.EXE GUI.


If there are two or more appointments overlapping the time slice will
be black.

If you have a repeating appointment it will have "dots" in the GUI.

It's just to give better visibility.

Subject:      LX max mem, PCMCIA FPU, ArCAD, etc.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; CHARSET=ISO-8859-2

Hello all,

About GPS: one seeking enhanced accuracy with civilian
grade devices should try a "dual-band" receiver, one
which also knows Glonass. This is soviet equivalent of
Navstar. Of course both satellite systems restrict ci-
vilian users from high-precision signals, but comparing
the two results on-the-fly may help reducing the error.

BTW, russians still operate a number of things, already
withdraw in "free world", like a version of LORAN and
regular morse transmissions.

Other: I made a trial with the IBM PCjr infrared keyboard
and the 200LX. Although the PCjr keyboard uses IR biphase
encoding, which should be unreadable to a UART, if fed to
it directly; looks like, at 4800bps every keystroke send
different unique series of characters (4-6 chars) to the
200LX. So maybe it could be used with a driver. I used
DataComm for the trial. BTW, there is wired option for the
keyboard, which uses standard 4-wire phone cord socket at
the keyboard side, thus a custom cable would be easy to
home-make.

Other: I remember Mack once mentioned the theoretical max
for RAM upgrade on the 200LX was 128MB. However the Deve-
loper Guide says the max is 320MB and there's hardware
support for LIM-EMS 3.2 So can we expect more RAM?

Also, any chance for getting Adlib-like functionality with
some soldering on the 3-channel 6-bit DAC for batteries?

Have you heard of FPU add-on card in PCMCIA format? I mean
even MorphyOne will not provide ample floating point capa-
city, as the 486SX will be acommpanied by a DSP-based add-
on for MP3 play, not good for any generic math. And poor
200LX really sucks at number crunching. A Weitek or Intel
i960 based approach would be ideal, these devices can be
handled in I/O oriented way, just like any peripheral. Of
course power draw is the main issue, but FPU on PCMCIA
means you can remove it when not doing CAD.

BTW, I tried DesignSoft's Arcad DOS v5.6 demo on 1x 200LX.
It's an architectural and office interior designer CAD
software. This version was last to run on XT w/o numeric
coprocessor. It works, but 3D is incredibly slow for
"realistic display" (when screening off hidden lines). It
is OK for 2D and mouseless operation is quite useable.
Sorry, but they only gave me a Hungarian language demo
version, so there is no point in putting it on the web.
The retail exits in english and german as well.

Sorry for the long posting, Sincerely: Tamas Feher

<<I agree.  I'd be interested also as to whether there's a macro

some sort.>>

I wonder how useful this would really be.  LX keystroke macros
aren't very flexible and since we all have somewhat different setups
my guess is a lot of them would just be frustrating.

Another idea might be a repository of ideas and how-to-do it
descriptions.  Then everyone could try them out and create their own
macros that fit their setup.

Just a thought.

The response I've gotten from my earlier post about PCMCIA cases is almost
enough to get the price down to $2 each. So I've decided to take orders
now and if the total is close I'll make up the rest.

The cases are PCMCIA Type 2 Cases, made of crystal styrene (same as CD
cases). These will hold Type 1 and Type 2 cards. Type 3 cards (like hard
disks) are too thick and will not fit.

No, the Developer's Guide says 320MBs including the 64MB's of space
that can be addressed on both NCS (PCMCIA) signals and the NRCE (ROM)
signal. You can only have 32MBs of space per each of the 4 NRAS (RAM)
signals as they only have 24bit addressing in a 16bit wide data path.

 Mack

Subject:      Some options for connecting HPLX to the internet

Found an interesting program today for sharing your desktop modem with
another deivce connected to the desktop.  The program is called
PassThur32 and works under Win95/98.  I did a real simple test and it
worked fine with my HP200.  The program is located at:
http://kevin.millican.net/Home

I also came across a page that documents how to connect a Psion
palmtop to the Internet through your desktop internet connection.  I
have not tried it with my HP200 but from the looks of it I think it
should work.  The process uses a null modem driver on your desktop
along with some Proxy software to act as a gateway to the Internet.  I
know someone asked about doing this type of thing before so I thought
I would pass it along.
 Check it out at:

Is this a program like NAT32? Does it require network cards or a serial
connection?

Jeff,

A while back you posted a message that stated you were able to
display you modem speed on your palmtop, while going online.  You
posted your AT command was: atw2dt with the phone number after
it.  I tried this with my APEX Mobile Plus Cellular modem, using
WWW/LX to fire up either POST/LX or HV.  I don't get anything on
the screen indicating what my connect speed was.

Could you better describe what program you are using while this
connection speed gets displayed, and what modem are you using?
Has this worked with any other modems, other than the one you are
currently using?  Thanks.

It works with my X-Jack modem, my ACE modem and the Thaddeus modem and works
with WWW/LX, GP, lxtcp and DataComm. I would be willing to bet that the Apex
doesn't support the W2 command.

Hi all,

Would anybody know why my Apointment Alarm, set to Custom and
the Widor tune, has slowed down this morning to about 1/46th
its normal speed ? Widor set the Toccata from his 5th organ
symphony to 100 quarter notes=400 semiquavers per minute
(Allegro). Widor woke me up to-day with 1 semiquaver per seven
seconds or 8.57 semiquavers per minute, that is 1/46th about.

What happened ?

Robert,

It works for me with the Apex Data Mobile Plus Cellular V.34
Model# 011-20641.  Most of the time I connect around 24000.
I don't have the best phone here at home, even with the
OB800CT & a 56K unit I only connect at 26400 or 28800.  =Bob=

Do you know some ISP that can offer this free conditions

digitalpaths strips all unneeded things from a website, such as images,
frames etc. So the sites appear in a better readable format in HV.

I haven't tried it very frequently by now, just a few times, in order
to verify that it works. So I have no big experience.

I'll ask the support what digitalpaths exactly does with a website.

If the list of newsgroups has been successfully downloaded
it will be saved as a text file *.lst . It should be in
the same directory as your newsgroup files live in. If you
get session reports for your newsgroups it will tell you
the full name and location of the *.lst file. Or you could
open filer and filter for *.lst files. At least thats how
mine is set up.

Does it ask if other copies of WP are running?  If so, it's because WP
was not exited properly and still has some of its temporary overflow
files files in the directory that it used.  Try answering No, and it
should delete the old ones and create new ones.  If you answer Yes you
get the message below, then you can enter a different directory name

Or, use the /d parameter to specifiy an empty directory.  Maybe write a
batch file to create a new directory, run Wp in that directory, then
delete the directory and any files.

Also, try running it with the /x parameter to have it run with all
default settings.

In each case above; make sure that the directory you specify is not
read-only.  If none of these works then it a bug or software
incompatibility.

Good luck!

I'm trying to run WordPerfect 5.1 under PocketDOS and XT-CE, and under
both of them it keeps telling me that the directory is in use and I need

to specify a new directory.  But regardless of which directory I
specify,
it won't start.  This is probably just some simple configuration problem

-- does anybody know what the problem is?

It does ask if other copies are running, but answering "No" doesn't help,
and neither does answering "Yes" and choosing a different directory.
Neither does manually deleting the temp files.  I'll try your other
suggestions.

Exactly when and where does this get displayed.  I am using the
exact same modem model number, and I don't see any text on the

WWW/LX to connect?

I don't use many either, and the other macros I have are very
simple.  I have 3 that start up applications--one of these (F5,
above 123) fires up a MaxDos session.  F1 and F2 are assigned
to macros that change the priority of ToDo items.  F1 is as
follows:

 {Enter}{Alt+P}-{F10}

I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader to deduce the
incrementing version.   :)

Four of my macro slots are unused.  I guess I feel the same
about it as I do disk space--I like having some to spare.

Robert,

After you start WWW/LX and the local # is dialed there is a
short wait until it connects to the ISP.  Then the connect
speed is displayed before the handshaking (up & down arrows)
occurs.  BTW, this does NOT happen with ACcis4 on Compuserve.

You can specify the directory from the command line

wp /d-x:\directory

where x is the drive letter you want.

However it sounds as if PocketDOS / XT-CE is not
returning a file status correctly.  In this event
a bug report will be necessary.  "The Undocumented
PC" comes with a program that can show the results
of DOS functions calls made during a session.

The following is GENERAL troubleshooting advice.

wp /nk  "Disables enhanced keyboard calls ..."
        "This option is especially useful if you are
        having trouble getting WordPerfect to start
        up ..."

wp /nf  "Must be used with some compatibles and
        windowing systems..." "... if screen goes
        blank from time to time."

wp /nc  "Disables Cursor Speed and Alt Key Selects
        Pull Down Menu features."  For TSR conflict.

Hi Nathalie & group -

AFAIK - there's no way for the LX to measure the card battery voltage.
It can only report a low/OK signal from the card.  The LX internal ADC
is only set to measure the main and backup batteries.

Probably the only way to be safe is to replace the SRAM card battery
every year.

Daniel,

Right now, I've placed the HP200 in a plain, text only configuration. We
remove images, colors, Java, Javascript, embedded files, and tables. Images
are replaced with their alt tags. Images and image maps that are links are
replaced with their alt tag and if they do not have an alt tag, we use a *
or the URL of the link depending on the situation.

The purpose of this is to allow better access to sites that have content
which may cause problems for a handheld browser or cannot be viewed very
well on the handheld. Of course there are tradeoffs, but there are times our
service can give better access to information on a web site.

With this said, I can direct you to different configurations. Some keep
color, images, and tables. Try these out and see which works the best. In
all of them, Java and Javascript are removed. Take your HP and go to each of
these start pages and see which one seems to be best for you:

http://www.digitalpaths.net/wince/pie10.htm (text only, no tables)
http://www.digitalpaths.net/wince/pie11.htm (text only, tables, color)
http://www.digitalpaths.net/wince/pie20.htm (images, text, tables, color)

Let me know if one of these is better than the current configuration, and
I'll make the change.

Sincerely,
Bernie Aua
Digital Paths

I don't have nettamer. So please would you contact them and ask if they
can make it work?
They will ask you to visit the www.digitalpath.net site and then to
tell them _when_ you did this. Then they will look in their logs in
order to see how the browser identifies itself. After that procedure,
they can make it work.

Please mention that the nettamer also runs on the HP 200LX, as WWW/LX /
HV does, then they should know how to setup their service.

It's very simple:

You go on the digitalpaths gateway site
www.digitalpath.net

(not www.digitalpaths.com, that's their homepage!) and then you get a
form where you can enter the URL of the page you want to see. Then you
only have to 'click' the access button, and digitalpaths forwards the
requested website to your browser, without all these bells and whistles
which most of the websites have. Read my other posting about what the
digitalpaths service does exactly.

By now it only works with WWW/LX / HV, but maybe it's also possible to
use it with other browsers soon.
I think it is in progress to make it work with nettamer, and if
there's anyone using another browser, please contact the digitalpaths
support at support@digitalpaths.com .

hi Nat I don't think LXPRO is design for checking the voltage of a Sram card.
In fact I don't  think it is possible follow this lik about The poqet PC, they will
probably have sone information about this problem.

I think you're right.  Has anybody been ABLE to run WP51 under XT-CE or

I have not tried it with HV yet, but I tried the Palm demo thingy on
their website.. I am very optimistic. I have some sites I would like to
access with HV, but I have not been able because of all the frames and shit on
it. But with digitalpaths it showed up on the Palm screen very nice..

I am looking forward to access the site with HV this weekend..

This is a great service and extends my Hplx life and use a great deal..

Are you sure it's the curly bracket and not the "Greater Than" angle
bracket?  I use Post/LX, and your post reads OK.  The angle bracket is
the mark for quoted lines, and you turn qouted lines on or off with
the Q key.  Try that and see if they reappear.

You need to terminate the system manager and then  run an 8087 emulation
program, em87.com as a tsr before you run the apl program. It seems to
work, although I have only gotten as far as mapping the HP200 keyboard an=

APL symbols and some playing with the function.  I will have to dig out t=

manual again.

em87.com is available on SUPER Site.

I seem to remember that,  there used to be a couple of patches for the ex=

file on a Compuserve forum.  I can do some digging through the stacks of
diskettes on the shelves if you really want to know. =

The system (not LXPRO)  must have warned you with the message
"card battery low" in the first line of the screen after power
on or after insertion of the sram card. If not, you have another
TSR running, which short circuits the card battery low warning.

Some TSRs (I don't know which) behave that way and suppress the
warning, because it is also issued every time you plug in a
network card, which indeed has no battery, and this is really
annoying.

I never owned a sram card and don't know, if it is already too
late at the time the warning appears. But LXPRO is only
informative. It does not issue a warning. It's up to the system
to do that job.

If you have EMS installed, LXPROMIN only uses 4KB resident.
It is included in http://peichl.hplx.net/lxpro.zip

Actually, those are just links to the text-only pages for the various

text-only sites, even on the desktop, because they are so much faster to

Things I like are:
More versatile printing (change fonts, sizes, paper orientation).
Scrolls very quickly (which really surprised me).
Graphs look better and are easier to make.
More intuitive to me, since I used Excel before I learned Lotus.

Hmm,  I can understand this point. It is why I still lean towards 123. I

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

APL is a language based largely on Ken Iverson's original great book `A Programming Language'.
APL was widely taught in the late 60s and early 70s, but now is used mostly by a shrinking
(if you believe SIG membership figures) population of people who like to use vectors and
matricies in their problem formulations. If you think that way it is a very nice language,
and versions of Manuguistics/STSC APL run quite nicely on the 200, though the characterset
is quite off-putting to novices.

Iverson himself continued to develop the language, and now has produced (with Roger Hui and
others) the `J' language which, while it looks quite different physically, is a very productive
follow on to APL. The early public domain versions of J run quite well on the 200, but are too
early (for my taste) to be of much use.

This past week, I rented a Hertz car with their "NeverLost" GPS unit
(which is made by Magellan). I had always assumed that they were DGPS,
since they demonstrate much better than 100-meter accuracy while
navigating. However, as I studied what it was telling me, it became
apparent that they use software to correct for the errors instead.

When I would first start driving, the little triangle indicating my
car might be off away from a road. After a short while (less than a
minute), it would jump exactly onto the road. When I would come to a
red light and stop, the indicator would be on the road, but might be
in the wrong position on the road, such as past the intersection I'm
sitting in front of. After I made a turn, it was off the road again,
and then in a few seconds it would figure this out and would stay
calibrated for the rest of my journey.

So apparently it was figuring out that I was actually driving on the
road, and compensated for its error. In order to do this, it has to
have pretty exact road maps, including the locations of both sides of
divided roads, and freeway entrance/exit ramps. But it had all this,
and worked great.

O.K. I was wrong.  It does display the modem speed, however I am
was not fast enough to read it many times I went online, but
once it displayed for a few seconds, 28800/ARQ.  Most of the
times it displayed for less than one second.  Does anyone know
how to delay this for a few seconds, before it finishes the
handshaking stuff?  Avi?  Thanks.

Nice work, Daniel! I tried it out and it certainly looks
like a very useful tool; it's a bit like the much hyped (but
little seen) WAP service, only for the entire Internet.

Greetings all,

I just recieved my new 56K PCMCIA modem from Thaddeus.  This is the same type
mentioned here by Jeff as well as being mentioned in the most recent Palmtop
Paper.  The documentation mentions an init string including w2s37=29.  I
believe the w2 tells the modem to display the connection speed.  I don't know
what the s37=29 does.  Can anyone here explain it?

I did find that my system does MUCH better if I change it to w2s37=28.  With
=29 on the end I could only connect about half of the time.  When I tried =30 I
couldn't connect at all.  With =28 I haven't had any trouble.  So, if you get
one of these nice modems, be sure to adjust the init string if you have any
trouble.

I got the line above using my HP200LX running WWW/LX and Post/LX.  Could you
explain more about what happens to you?  Is the whole line gone?  Is there
anything, like garbage characters, in place of the line?

Interesting :) I had the exact opposite effect. I guess it's related to
the modem to which you are trying to connect. The Thaddeus modem is a
great little modem and by purchasing it you can use it with notebooks
also. It's a win-win situation!

What you say is certainly largely true. My first `Neverlost Hertz' was rented at Christmas more
than two years ago, and it works pretty much as you describe, although discussions in
sci.geo-satellite.nav year or two ago would indicate that there is also some feedback to the
`position computation' from the physical movement of the car (i.e. the unit  `knows' when the car
is stopped---after all the wheels aren't moving). All in all, I was impressed  enough with the
capabilities of the `NeverLost' back then to buy my own first GPS, which has since
been followed by lots of `enhancements'.

All in all, my Hertz rental back in 97 or 98 proves to have been one of the most expensive
(but also one of the most pleasant) in my history...

all my macros, except F10 are used to back up applications or notes to A
drive

for example F1, being located above the appt key, is assigned to copying
apt.adb to A.  F2, located above phone, copies phone.pdb, and so on

F10 opens a note (F3) and puts the cursor at the end (for adding new text)

all other macros run via Andreas's quick-lx

c'est tout :)

Hello all;

I might be moving (returning, after 14 yrs.) to Dallas, Texas pretty
soon and  I would like to know who on the list lives in that Dallas-Ft.
Worth metroplex area.  Also, I was wondering if those list members in
the Dallas area could recommend a good ISP and computer shop there.  For
an ISP, I would prefer not to spend more than $15-20 per month, and,
more importantly, I want *excellent* customer service.  Thanks!

Richard Smith

To this I can add that Excel 2.1 on the 200LX can open and handle big
files which the built-in Lotus 1-2-3 can't- not enough memory!
My major reason for using Excel 2.1 on the palmtop is becuase we use MS
Office in my work. So I can easiely save spreadsheets as Win 2.1 format
on my desktop PC and it will keep the formatting (at least so far..).
Then when I send out a file from my palmtop, the person who receive it
just need to double click on the file.

Regards,

Jorgen

I suppose a variation on this could include the Fn-Date and/or Fn-Time if
someone wanted to use the note function to log events with a date/time

I also just tried www.digitalpaths.net with my trusty HP200LX and my brand new
56K modem from Thaddeus.  This makes web browsing on the palmtop a lot of fun
(and useful too of course).

Hello!

On another mailinglist in Sweden one guy there emailed me offlist and =
said "look what I got" and he had enclosed one of the mails from this =
list,an email with a discussion I had with Martin in Norway.

First I just thought he had searched on my name in different discussionsgr=
oups,but then I looked in my LX folder and I still had that email!!!!

But I know for sure that I have not open any attachments from that =
mailinglist or from this guy,could he still in some way have hacked =
himself into my LX??

I have already reported him to my ISP's abusedepartment,but what can I do =
to protect myself?Is it not enough only to not open any attachments?

And how can I discover if I have a hidden Netbusprogram in my LX?

I have been recomended to use powermenu to start lxmap with different

But I am having problems with it. Some programs whont start.

Only Norton commander and lxgps works.

Ideas? I guess that files like the Units.exe is to memory hungry. But =
lxmap I think should work.

After much behind-the-scenes work, palmtop.net is moving to a new, FASTER
server. A very special thanks to the efforts of Paulo Custodio, Laust
Brock-Nannestad and Peter Watkins for making it happen.

The DNS move order has been completed at Network Solutions and the DNS folks
at one.net have been notified. Things should start propogating to the new
server within a few days.

Most likely, some things will be broken or weird so bear with us as we get
all the bugs squashed.

If you would like to sample the speed now, point your browsers to:

http://64.33.5.108

I am hoping to get the SUPER updates back into gear after this server move
completes.

Thanks.

Do you mean that you had not sent the E-mail yet, or that you still had the
sent E-mail saved on your machine?  If you had already sent the E-mail, then I
woudl assume that the person just searched on your name.  The last time I put
my own name into a web search engine I got a list that included messages from
me in the HPLX archives.

Greetings all,

I just recieved my new 56K PCMCIA modem from Thaddeus.  This is the same
type
mentioned here by Jeff as well as being mentioned in the most recent
Palmtop
Paper.  The documentation mentions an init string including w2s37=29.  I
believe the w2 tells the modem to display the connection speed.  I don't
know
what the s37=29 does.  Can anyone here explain it?

I did find that my system does MUCH better if I change it to w2s37=28.
With
=29 on the end I could only connect about half of the time.  When I tried
=30 I
couldn't connect at all.  With =28 I haven't had any trouble.  So, if you
get
one of these nice modems, be sure to adjust the init string if you have any
trouble.

Just a few questions...

1)  What is the going price (US$) for the pocket modems of 9600 - 28.8
speed?

2)  Any good sources for mint-condition used or refurbished models?

3)  Most I've seen are 9V battery; do any use 2 AAs instead?

4)  Are these compatible with Palm IIIx using the serial out cable?

I'm looking for a modem that will work well with both my HP200lx and the
Palm IIIx but which can power itself.  I like the Palm modem but find it
terribly high at $130 new and, as far as I can recall, requires
warranty-busting modifications to work with the HP.  Alternative
suggestions welcomed.

arrays. Some cool features though, like the user command processor, that

I run version 11 of PC/APL, (purchased just days before ver. 10 went
public domain :-( .  Have had no problems. I use garphics driven fonts.
There are 2 versions of the fonts, a truly cruddy 40 char wide version,
and a quite good 64 character wide version. The 40 character version
precludes use of any full screen quad functions.

Jim Weigang offers something called APL Notes for about $25., It
includes a tutorial manual, the version 10 interpreter, and some cool utils,
including a full screen step thru debugger, a good graphics workspace,
etc. I've been meaning to purchase it for a while now, just to get the
graphics ws and the debugger. check out the APL FAQ or comp.lang.apl.

The 200lx manual says that if you have a *.fon file, you can use keybez
to load it.
I've tried to load the various APL.fon files, but it hasn't worked out. If I
can figure it out then I'll be able to use the zoom key on the 200LX.

Both versions 10 & 11 of PC-APL can use EMM memory above 640k,
and have a kind of virtual memory swap file capability to a hard, (or in the
case of 00lx, flash card) drive. I say "kind of virtual memory" because a
64K limit is still imposed on each object.

I've often thought that if I had a 200k disk cache above the dos5 640k
limit, and had that feed into an EMM on disk emulator on my flash card,
I'd have 80 percent of the throughput of real EMS, and I could have it up
to 15 or 20 MB. Any suggestions as to how I might do it?

Tony

If you search around the Web (use APL as the search term) you can find a
crippled demo for PC/APL ver 10.  The demo contains extensive
documentation, especially of the "library functions the manufacturer /
version specific information.  I believe there is a  tutorial workspace p=

This would be an excellent free DOS package.

I am trying to help someone install the Collins100 Language Dictionary
Windows' Version of the program on a Win98 laptop.  I have the dos
version on my palmtop as does this person.

I also installed the WINDOWS' Version on my desktop without any hitches.

But on the laptop, the window you normally type your Search word into,
does not show the word being typed.  As a matter of fact the entire left
side window for the SEARCH and the drop down list appears squished with
the scroll arrow overlapping a portion of the window.  But it is odd
typing and see the cursor move but NO LETTERS show as they are being
typed.  (by the way, the dos version appears to run okay on the laptop)


The FIND RESULTS in the right window is okay and displays correctly.

It is just the input side.  I am wondering if it might be a FONT issue
(the Font menu in Collins seems directed at the output results windows
and not input)

Any help appreciated or has anyone else run into this problem?

To this I can add that Excel 2.1 on the 200LX can open and handle big
files which the built-in Lotus 1-2-3 can't- not enough memory!
My major reason for using Excel 2.1 on the palmtop is becuase we use MS
Office in my work. So I can easiely save spreadsheets as Win 2.1 format
on my desktop PC and it will keep the formatting (at least so far..).
Then when I send out a file from my palmtop, the person who receive it
just need to double click on the file.

Regards,

Jorgen

Etienne

 S37 - Desired Line Connection Speed:
      Default: 0
         Bit 0-3 -   Desired line connection speed.  This is interlinked
with
                     the Fn command.  If an invalid number is entered, the
                     number is accepted into the register, but S37 will act
as
                     if the default value has been entered.
            0  =   Attempt auto mode connection (F0).  Default
            1-3=   Attempt to connect at 300 bps (F1).
            4  =   Reserved.
            5  =   Attempt to connect at 1200 bps (F4).
            6  =   Attempt to connect at 2400 bps (F5).
            7  =   Attempt to connect at V.23 (F3).
            8  =   Attempt to connect at 4800 bps (F6).
            9  =   Attempt to connect at 9600 bps (F8).
            10 =   Attempt to connect at 12000 bps (F9).
            11 =   Attempt to connect at 14400 bps (F10).
            12 =   Attempt to connect at 7200 bps (F7).
         Bit 4-7 - Reserved

and:

Fn      Select Line Modulation

This command selects the line modulation according to the parameter
supplied.  The line modulation is fixed unless automode is selected.
   This command interacts with the S37 and the "N" command.  The parameter
   value, if valid, is written to S37 bit 0-3.  To select line modulation,
   it is recommended that either the "F" command, or a combination of the
   S37 and the "N" command, be used, but not both.

    F0      Selects auto-detect mode.  Sets N1 and sets S31 bit 1.  In this
            mode, the modem configures for auto mode operation.  All
connect
            speeds are possible according the remote modem's preference.
The
            contents of S37 are ignored as is the sensed DTE speed.
Default

    F1      Selects V.21 or Bell 103 according to the "B" setting as the
only
            acceptable line speed resulting in a subsequent connection.
Sets
            N0, sets S37 to 1, and clears S31 bit 1.  This command is
            equivalent to the command string: ATN0S37=1.

    F2      Not supported (other products use this setting for 600 bps).

    F3      Selects V.23 as the only acceptable line modulation for a
            subsequent connection.  Originator is at 75 bps and answerer is
            at 1200 bps.  Sets N0, sets S37 to 7, and clears S31 bit 1.
This
            command is equivalent to the command string: ATN0S37=7.

    F4      Selects V.22 1200 bps or Bell 212A according to the "B" command
            setting as the only acceptable line speed for a subsequent
            connection.  Sets N0, sets S37 to 5, and clears S31 bit 1.
This
            command is equivalent to the command string:  ATN0S37=5.

    F5      Selects V.22bis as the only acceptable line modulation for a
            subsequent connection.  Sets N0, sets S37 to 6, and clears S31
            bit 1.  This command is equivalent to the command string:
            ATN0S37=6.

    F6      Select V.32bis 4800 bps or V.32 4800 bps as the only acceptable
            line modulation for a subsequent connection.  Sets N0, sets S37
            to 8, and clears S31 bit 1.  This command is equivalent to the
            command string:  ATN0S37=8.

    F7      Selects V.32bis 7200 bps as the only acceptable line modulation
            for a subsequent connection.  Sets N0, sets S37 to 12, and
clears
            S31 bit 1.  This command is equivalent to the command string:
            ATN0S37=12.

    F8      Selects V.32bis 9600 bps or V.32 9600 bps as the only
acceptable
            line modulation for a subsequent connection.  Sets N0, sets S37
            to 9, and clears S31 bit 1.  This command is equivalent to the
            command string:  ATN0S37=9.

    F9      Selects V.32bis 12000 bps as the only acceptable line
modulation
            for a subsequent connection.  Sets N0, sets S37 to 10, and
clears
            S31 bit 1.  This command is equivalent to the command string:
            ATN0S37=10.

    F10     Selects V.32bis 14400 bps as the only acceptable line
modulation
            for a subsequent connection.  Sets N0, sets S37 to 11, and
clears
            S31 bit 1.  This command is equivalent to the command string:
            ATN0S37=11.

We are clearing out all our old software and

The old Lotus Symphony 1.1 Suite is on eBay.
Should run on the 200LX.  Is there any interest
in the outliner Ready!, IBM SlideWrite, PC
Storyboard, old DOSes, or old BASICs?  He also
has a fairly complete suite of the GEM programs.
Should that go as a Group?

Steve - thanks for the great advice! WP 5.1 on my 200LX always stalled at the
title screen upon startup, until I tapped the spacebar a couple of times. The
"/nk" switch eliminates that perfectly. And if I'm not mistaken, WP seems to run
a bit faster!

Now, do you have another magic switch for the WP 5.1 SPELLER.EXE? I like to run
this separately on occasion to look up the spelling of an individual word.
However, on startup it always stalls with a blank screen until I press a key two
times. I tried speller with the above switches, but no joy.

Also, is there a switch to force the SPELLER display to be monochrome or B&W so
I don't have to use CGAHELP?

Thanks!

In our Windows CE publication, HANDHELD PC MAGAZINE, www.hpcmag.com, editor
Rich Hall reviewed Pocket DOS. He came up against the WordPerfect issue.
Here is what Rich says,

---------

Rich: The initial release of PocketDOS does not support it for some reason.
They said they were going to fix the problem in the next release. Here's the
message they sent me.

Dear Mr. Hall,

We have not managed to get WordPerfect installed using the current
version of PocketDOS. However, it has highlighted a need for the
application to provide some means of emulating a hard disk in future
versions. We have made a test version which emulates a hard disk using a
large file and have gotten WordPerfect to work correctly when installed
to this "hard disk". We are currently looking into methods to add this
functionality to the next version of PocketDOS (available in the next
few weeks) without complicating its configuration too much. Our prime
goal for this application is to make it as simple to use as possible.

Thank you for your input.

Hi Bill,

The program that you've describe sounds like Numlock By Stefan Peichl.

Numlock is a TSR that allows you to use the NumPad of your HP 100/200LX
as a separate cursor key block. Allows single keystrokes for PgUp,
PgDn, Home and End. Works under SysMgr. Copyrighted freeware.

Dear Mr. Hall,

We have not managed to get WordPerfect installed using the current
version of PocketDOS. However, it has highlighted a need for the
application to provide some means of emulating a hard disk in future
versions. We have made a test version which emulates a hard disk using a
large file and have gotten WordPerfect to work correctly when installed
to this "hard disk". We are currently looking into methods to add this
functionality to the next version of PocketDOS (available in the next
few weeks) without complicating its configuration too much. Our prime
goal for this application is to make it as simple to use as possible.

Thank you for your input.

<<Any update on backlighting upgrades?>>

Murphy has reared it's head over and over. Without going into too many
details (you wouldn't believe it), things are inching forward. David S.
continues to have serious complications from an operation; John M. has
dropped out. Mack is building boards waiting on some parts. Hopefully, we
should be able to build some beta units in another week or so if David is up
to it.  If our beta testers like it, and if we can get parts, Late April or
May is probably a realistic time frame.

(I will be emailing beta testers and those who ordered new palmtops soon to
update you specifically).

Again, let's wish David a fast recovery.

I find this question unclear.
  (1) `I have DOS 5.0 on disk ...' What kind of disk?  How do you read them on your 200?
  (2) `I want to extract some files ...' Extract? are they Zipped or do you simply mean
      `copy' instead of `extract'?
  (3) Why would you expect this to `mess up' Windows 98? And where are your running Win 98?
  (4) Does this have anything to do with 200Lxs?

Usually the DOS install disks are compressed in some manner.  It may not
be as simple as copying off a desired file.  The latest version of DOS
(PC DOS 7.0/2000, is a good example of this).

The installation of DOS 5.0 on the palmtop is missing some normally
provided DOS utilities.  Many users obtain these missing utilities
and copy them over to their palmtop.

I don't see anything inappropriate about the post, contrary to your
implication that it wasn't 200LX-related.  Alas, I can't answer the
specific original questions, apart from noting that I have since
dedicated an old 486-based PC that we were about to discard to be
exclusively a DOS machine here at work.  It has both sizes of floppy
disks, and allows me easy testing of DOS stuff.

The only files I can think of which would require setup are
the boot files.  I am assuming you just want the files
missing from the palmtop.  If so, get EXPAND.EXE from your
DOS 5.0 disk, give it the file name you are trying to get as
the first argument (spell it just like it's found on the
disk), and give the opened file name as the second argument.
Example: EXPAND UNDELETE.EX_ UNDELETE.EXE (note the file
extention). Of course, files must be in the same directory.
Other extentions you might find on your disk: CO_ to COM,
DL_ to DLL, IN_ to INI, TX_ to TXT, etc.

I hope that answers your question.

Domingo

P.S.  Never run a DOS setup program unless you are trying to
install the whole thing!

Has the laptop got a default printer assigned? I know that
this is necessary for a newer Windows version that I use to
display correctly.

Handled on prevous replies to this post (the EXPAND command). The normal
DOS 5.0 installation would extract compressed files much like Win 95 cab
files.

The simple method of obtaining these files is to install DOS 5.0 on a
desktop system. Doing this may wipe out the Win 95 system files (IO.SYS,
MSDOS.SYS and COMMAND.COM). This could be rather messy for the
uninitiated.

The 200LX runs on DOS 5.0

Maybe try running MODE BW80 right before you run SPELL.EXE, that should
help the color problem.  But, you may be out of luck on the keyboard
problem

From:  Bruce Martin <Bruce_Martin@MANULIFE.COM>
Subject:  Re: Running WP51 under PocketDOS / XT-CE

Steve - thanks for the great advice! WP 5.1 on my 200LX always stalled
at the
title screen upon startup, until I tapped the spacebar a couple of
times. The
"/nk" switch eliminates that perfectly. And if I'm not mistaken, WP
seems to run
a bit faster!

Now, do you have another magic switch for the WP 5.1 SPELLER.EXE? I like
to run
this separately on occasion to look up the spelling of an individual
word.
However, on startup it always stalls with a blank screen until I press a
key two
times. I tried speller with the above switches, but no joy.

Also, is there a switch to force the SPELLER display to be monochrome or
B&W so
I don't have to use CGAHELP?

Thanks!

There's probably an EXTRACT.EXE (or maybe EXPAND.EXE) that you can use
to uncompress the files.  It's not exactly user-friendly, but it works.

Sounds like the Drive E: issue. Some software in the past
assumed that drive A was a floppy and would not install on
it. This is probably the reason the HP embedded
AUTOEXEC.BAT in ROM has the Assign E: A:. The user manual
also discusses this point in the chapter dedicated to
installing DOS software.

The file you had asked for earlier, that I sent you, was
compressed, before I sent them to you, and I keep them stored on
one of my spare flash cards.  In all the compressed files, there
is also a file to uncompress the rest of the files called,
expand.exe, and it is not compressed.

All you have to do is to have both the expand.exe file, and what
ever else file you wish to decompress, or expand, in the same
location, and run the expand command on that file.  To learn how
to use expand, just like any other dos command, type expand /?,
this will display help on how to use the command.

This is what is displayed for the help on expand:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Expands one or more compressed files.

EXPAND drive:pathfilename drive1:path1filename ... destination

  drive:pathfilename  Specifies the location and/or name of a file or
                          set of files to be expanded. You cannot use
                          wildcards.
  destination             Specifies the new location and/or name of an
                          expanded file or set of files. Destination can be
                          a drive letter and colon, directory name,
                          filename, or combination.

The destination can only be a filename if you have specified a single
filename for the source filename parameter. To expand multiple files to a
different directory and keep the original filenames, specify only a
directory as the destination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
So basically all you need to do is type the command, space,
source file, space, destination file.  Example:

expand sort.ex_ sort.exe

I keep all the files that came with my DOS 5.0 disks, just like
they came, compressed, and if I ever need a single file,
expanding them is very easy.  It would not make sense to expand
them all, if only you need one single file.  Hope this helps,

I _think_ Tony means a MS DOS 5.0 on a Diskette (the
operating system on it.) I do not recall, but it may have
taken 3 diskettes?

The distribution of MS DOS 5.0 was in a compressed format.
I believe they managed somehow to squeeze 1.7MB on a
hi-density diskette and it took some special program called
EXTRACT to "unpack" the real program. The naming convention
- from my unreliable memory of it - was something like
SUBST.EX_ or such ...

LATER:::::::::::::  I just found some relevant info. My
MSDOS manual explains about something called EXPAND, not
EXTRACT. "Expand - Expands a compressed MS-DOS version 5.0
file. You can use htis command to retrieve one or more
files from the installation or update disks that accompany
MS-DOS version 5.0. There files are not usable unless you
expand them."

So that is one piece...

Syntax:

expand drive:pathfilename drive:pathfilename... destination

Destination is where on disk you want the file.

"Note: Most of the file on the installation or update disk provided with MS-DOS
version 5.0 are compressed. Wach of these compressed files has a file extension
that ends with and underscore character (_). When you installed MS-DOS, you ran
the Setup program, which expanded thses files before copying them to your
system. However, if you need to retrieve just one or a few of these files from
the original didks, you can use the expand command."

(Ueahh... I remembered some of this... :) ...)

Example: expand a:\sort.ex_ c:\dos50\sort.exe


>   (3) Why would you expect this to `mess up' Windows 98? And where are your running Win 98?

I have no guess on this one. I speculate that he worries
about runing the SETUP.EXE which is on that diskette.
Perhaps he worries that that will somehow unload MS DOS 5.0
on top of Win 98 and maybe mess things up. (Privately, I
think overlaying Win98 with DOS 5.0 is an _improvement_ -
but that is just a private opinion :-) ...)

>   (4) Does this have anything to do with 200Lxs?

This is the best place for information even on unrelated
items :-) Maybe he is trying to extract some relevant
programs, such as SORT, SUBST etc.? I dunno... The O/S on
the Palmtop is DOS 5.0, of course...

Sort.exe is OK and may do what you want. It has a 64K limit for the file to
be sorted. I prefer Vernon Buerg's SORTF.EXE program (available from SIMTEL
on the net). Sortf.exe doesn't have this limitation and has some other
options that may be useful.

Ed - thanks for the tip on SORTF - I've not heard of this variation.  I've
always used another sort-improvement program called QSORT.  It has the
added benefit of handling multi-line data records.  But I'll download
your recommendation and give it a try.

Just go into monochrome mode 7 before starting, and SPELL

Mode BW80 will work.

I have XT-CE working on an HP 820, I am not using Word Perfect but I do use
Word Star 4.0. I setup the image as a "C" drive. I use it to boot XT-CE and
run a few DOS apps (WS 4.0, ACCIS 4). I do not have a copy of WordPerfect
but do not see where there should be any difference between the install
routine and running the software.

Aware Electronics is the company that makes radiation detectors that work

Hi all

Here is a puzzle.

The following text is included in the electronic HPLX200 Manual(see second
para of the excerpt below). Is this in the front of the printed manual?
Havent got mine handy.

I searched for Datalight Inc (As mentioned below) and seem to get to the
right company. Wrote to them and got someone who didnt even know what a
200LX was.  Hence no surprise at his claim that unless "ROM-DOS comes onto
the screen on boot that it wasnt their product.

I believe it would be wonderful to have the actual software development
Company as an info source for HPLX as well as/or for the new product our
Japanese friends are developing. All of Mack's tweaks etc would/should be
easier.  :)

Anyone in the US able to phone Datalight and get some info on the
possibilities?=20

I searched on the net..think it was www.datalight.com came up.

Regards

Russell

Our company owns a Datalight ROM-DOS license, which we use to put into
embedded producs we sell.  True, I always see the Datalight copyright
notice on boot-up.... but maybe a company like HP has enough clout to
negotiate some special agreement.

I don't see any mention of Datalight in my printed manual.  Can you
tell us more about where you got this extracted text from in the
electronic version of the manual?

On my doublespeed LX, I found it so slow as to be pretty much
unuseable, unfortunately. You might have more luck with the
older, less demanding games, but I doubt it. A shame, because
Mario on the LX would have been something special!

I agree. So far Prolink has 55 feedbacks on ebay, so he/she has bought
at least 55 200LX's - could be double that number. Paying stupid prices
too, so presumably would jump at the chance to buy new ones if they were
available.

My manual includes the parts before and after the dashed lines
with a copyright date of 1994, rather than 1996.  The other
bits are not included.

It's my understanding that the DOS on the hp100lx and hp200lx is
made by microsoft.  The Datalight rom-dos  product has  no  code
derived from  microsoft. =20
I've never touche an omnigo 700lx, but between the geoworks=20

The OG700LX is actually pretty much the same as the 200LX, but with a cell
phone docking cradle added on and some other interesting things like data
LEDs on the front, a built-in PCS datacard, and some new software.
Anyway, it uses the same DOS as the 200LX does; I don't see any
differences.

OTOH, they might not really care about the demand for the 200LX.

It may be that profit margins and support issues make the WinCE units more
attractive in terms of marketing.

Killing off the 200LX may just have been figuratively like the execution of
the czar in the Russian revolution... so that there'd be no turning back.
