Longden,
I think you have done it before, but would you mind sharing your macro
and batch file again?
I just lost an appointment file by corruption for one too many times.
Thanks to the great dbcheck I got the file cleaned up, but really must
do
an automatic daily backup.

By the way, from a way old thread, the corruption to the appt file is
when it is open during a re-boot.

Thanks
Bob

Now I need to find my original Collins Dictionary. Maybe someone can

Hello!

Now I'm trying to combine the set, execute und reset kb-buffer in
one asm-prog, 'cause SysMgr is complaining about not enough memory.
But Without a reset it's working and with a reset there is no
kb-buffer execution (in the new buffer).
Who has a hint?

I keep a backup of my C: drive on the A: drive (a compact flash
card) and when backup time comes I update it with pkzip, remove the
card and insert it in my PC reader and copy it to a folder on the pc
and to a Zip disk.

Before I had a compact flash reader on my desktop I did the same
thing with my laptop.

This whole procedure takes about 2 minutes and it backs up
everything.  It's also a simple matter to keep the last several
backups just in case.

Unless it's damaged the jpg and mp3 files there should be no
problem.  Worst case, it makes them fail some crc check but I'm sure
lots of programs won't make that check if it exists.  You can always
fall back on converting it to a wav file and then back to an mp3.
Jpg's can be converted to bmp's or png's or whatever is easiest.

Jpg and mp3 files are data.  They're never executed.  They never
have control of the cpu or anything else.  Viruses attached to them
are harmless.

But if the virus is more than just attached;  if it's actually
corrupted the file, then I suppose it's lost.

The process is mainly to assign a program to run using the appt app late at
night, and this is simple enough to do with a batch file that pkzips all your
data into a backup on the flash card (or on a network if you regularly leave it
connected).

The main gotcha is that you should close all apps before running the backup,
otherwise you may not be getting a copy of the latest updated information.
Doing this manually (closing the apps) is obviously trivial, but a bit more
convoluted using automation and built-in features.

My backup is primarily handled by a batch file (bak.bat) that pkzips my entire C
drive to a zip file on the flash card, and also archives selected data areas on
the zip card.  The batch file also deletes and recreates my c:\tmp directory
(kind of like emptying the trash).

An entry in the Appt app is set to trigger at 1am, which starts a system macro
(#7 for me) which closes all apps and then starts the batch file.  The Appt
entry is a recurring appointment:

<<
Description: ||7 Close Apps & backup
Start time: 1:00am
Location: Q
Alarm: (enabled)  Leadtime: 0
>>

The double vertical bar is needed for invoking system macros.

The system macro (#7) is:

<<
{Filer}{Filer}{More}{Menu}{Enter}L{More}L
>>

The double {Filer} entry is needed if you use the trick that normally closes
Filer.  It turned out that if Filer was closed when the macro ran, then "Close
all" would somehow fail. The first "L" is the "Close all".  The 2nd "L" refers
to an icon in App Mgr, which I call "LX-Backup" ... ("L" is the hotkey) and this
icon is setup as follows:

<<
Name: &LX-Backup
Path: a:\utl\maxdos.com a:\utl\bak.bat |
Comments:  (inverted ?)
>>

I had tried invoking the batch file directly from the macro with no success ...
I forget the details, but I believe it just quits when invoking a program.

In case a full restore is needed on the C drive (internal), I normally run a
batch file (on my flash card, of course) called zero_c.bat which does:

<<
c:
cd \
deltree /y c:\
>>

and then run a batch file called restore_c.bat:

<<
rem run cmd from drive c
rem first restore all files
a:\utl\pkunzip -d -Jhrs -o a:\_bak\cdrive.zip *.*

rem now bebuild emm swap area. 64 16k blocks=1mb
a:\utl\instemm 64
>>

Both of the above are simple enough that batch files are hardly needed, but I've
found that when disaster strikes, the simplest recovery scheme is the least
frustrating.

The backup batch file is shown below ... I'll explain it if anyone has
questions, it's just too painful otherwise.

<<
@echo off
rem the following pkzip cmds to backup requires about 256k to work
pkzip -a+ a:\_bak\_dat.zip a:\_dat\appt.adb
pkzip -i a:\_bak\_dat.zip a:\_dat\*.*
pkzip -i a:\_bak\data.zip a:\data\*.*
xcopy a:\quicken\qdata.pdt a:\_bak /m
rem
rem (flush out the tmp directory before backing up)
rem

I run Orcad occassionally on my 200LX.  I think it is version 3.x,
however.  But if your manual says it works on an XT, give it a try!

I believe Laust mentioned that this was a variation of the "I Love you" virus.
If so, the jpg/mp3 files are completely replaced by the vbs script and the files
are renamed (appending .vbs to the filename) such that clicking on them will
execute them (assuming normal file associations are set for the computer).

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

I've had to part with my recent Canon A50 (my daughter needed a digicam), so I'm
looking for another camera.

The A50 is a better companion to the 200LX, but it's hard to find, especially at
the $199 (new, from Office Max) that I paid for the last one.  However, the
serial connection (vs USB for most newer cameras) is a minor issue, since it's
easier/faster anyway to just swap the CF card.

Do any of you remaining US digicam list members know of any clearances or sales,
specifically for the Canon S10?  I'm looking for a price below $300 (since $337
seems available on the web).

While partial to the S10, I'll entertain any great buy, as long as it's under
$300 and comparable to the S10.

Thanks.

Something is turning off the Light sleep mode and this diables the =

someone else will see an answer.

Here is my backup appointment.  It runs the macro assigned to Fn-F9

Description: ||9
Start Date : 11/02/2000
Start Time : 11:00pm
End Time   : 11:05pm
Location   : q
X Alarm
Leadtime: 0
#Consecutive Days: 1
Repeat Status:  None
X Shows in Week View
X Shows in Month View
Note:

My Fn-F9 macro looks like this (it all goes on one line with no spaces, =
it may
be word wraped by your E-mail reader):

{Appt}{F9}{F5}{F4}{Right}{Right}{F4}||9{F3}{Enter}{Alt+D}{Date}+{F10}{Menu=
}q{More}{Menu}AL{More}n

Here is the same macro broken down with explanations of each part.  The =
part
after the colon is the explanation

{Appt}{F9}: Opens Appt and sets it to daily appt view (ie not ToDo mode)

{F5}{F4}:  Goto Today (in case you left it looking at another day)

{Right}{Right}:  Go forward two days to the day after tomorrow

{F4}||9{F3}: Search backwards for the appointment that runs this macro.
 This way, if the appointment didn't get moved foreward to today like it =
should
 have, the search will still find it.  The search also works even if the
appointment has already been moved forward to tomorrow.

{Enter}: Edit the appointment we just found with the search.

{Alt+D}{Date}:  Jump to the start date field and put in today's date.  =
This
moves the appointment to today.

+{F10}:  This adds one day, so the appointment is now for tomorrow.

{Menu}q:  Close Appt.  We have gone through all of this to move the =
appointment
that ran this macro ahead to tomorrow.  This allows us to have an appointm=
ent
activate the macro every day, but not have the Appt book cluttered up =
with a
repeating appointment.

{More}{Menu}AL:  Go to &...More and close all open applications.  This =
makes
sure there is enough memory to run the backup batch file.  If you have an
unsaved file in Memo this portion with hang up.

{More}n:  Runs the application in &...More assigned to the letter N hot =
key.

My entry in &...More has a description line: &Night Batch

The batch file itself looks generally like

cls
xcopy c:\ACCIS4 a:\c\ACCIS4 /m /s
xcopy c:\DOS a:\c\DOS /m /s
xcopy c:\DP23 a:\c\DP23 /m /s
xcopy c:\GAMES a:\c\GAMES /m /s
xcopy c:\PIM a:\c\PIM /m /s
xcopy c:\QUICKEN a:\c\QUICKEN /m /s
xcopy c:\UTIL a:\c\UTIL /m /s
xcopy c:\_DAT a:\c\_DAT /m /s
xcopy c:\WWW a:\c\WWW /m /s
xcopy c:\a a:\a /m /s
xcopy c:\f a:\f /m /s
xcopy c:\ a:\c /m

This copies parts of my C: drive to the a:\c a:\a and a:\f subdirectories =
of my
flash card. The /m flag tells xcopy to do only modified files.  The /s =
flag
tells xcopy to do all of the subdirectories under the listed directory.  =
I
don't use this to backup all of my subdirectories since some parts of it =
are
just reference material that doesn't change.  I also skip subdirectories =
that
just have index files and other similar data.  If I wanted to do every
subdirectory, I could simplify the whole batch file to:

xcopy c:\ a:\c /m /s

isn't possible, cause DOS is evaluating the buff 'after all'.
So I'm wondering about the fact, that pocket launcher transfers
long file-name-strings to f.i. 123. The tested buf-pointers
afterwards are the same.
Is it a special exm-toll funtion or is it a trick, which I could
use in my simple assembler progs?

HP is selling yet:
HP 95LX/100LX Cable for IBM/IBM PC/AT compatible PCs.
Part # F1015A
$24.951
I'd bought it and it's right one.

Martin,

I, too, don't see anything that might cause this problem upon first
glance of your Autoexec.bat and Config.sys files. Have you a clean
backup. If you do, I would remove the batteries and let it sit for a
couple of days. Then restore all your files with fresh copies. Once in a
while something gets corrupted and needs to be reinstalled. I'm a little
embarrassed that this is the best I can come up with but I'm at a total
loss. The only other thing would be to send it to Thaddeus or at least
contact them to see what they say.

Hello Folks,

I thought this was posted, but I did not actually see it on
the list. If this is a duplicate, please forgive me.

D&A Software released WWW.EXE Version 3.0a, POST.EXE version
3.0a, and RoboNews/LX Version 2.0. This is an update of the
recent major version change. The details are on the Webpage at
http://www.dasoft.com - click on the date at the top of the
page for the announcements page, and the links it provides to
the rest of the information.

The files are now available on the ftp sites: WWW3.ZIP,
POST3.ZIP, and ROBONEWS.ZIP. These files are also available
as self-extracting archives with the .EXE extension.

The D&A Software FTP site was "mirrored" because it was
unfriendly to some customers. The two sites are:

  ftp://ftp.dasoft.com
  http://www.alwaysafe.con/dasoft/public_ftp

Both sites have the latest, shiniest, most up-to-date stuff. I
do not load ANYTHING to any other site, so we do not know what
is out there in other sites. We have had some inquiries, and I
regret that we cannot help with these issues. Please use our
sites if you need the "authoritative" copy.

The WWW/LX Version 3 files are in

  ftp://ftp.dasoft.com/pub/WWW

  and in

  http://www.alwaysafe.com/dasoft/public_ftp/WWW

Note, the letter case makes a difference.

Lastly, the README files in the WWW directory was stale and
therefore reworked. There is now READMEV2.TXT and
READMEV3.TXT.

If there are any questions on this announcement, please direct
them to

    info@dasoft.com

Support issues for D&A Software products, please write to

    support@dasoft.com

Thank you!

All the best,

My copy (from Thaddeus) came on a CD-ROM with both Windows and
DOS versions of the software. Black with the word "Collins"
and a large red stripe across it.

Tony Kan mentioned Lotus Agenda. You may also like to take a
look at FlexPad at www.jps.net/flexpad. It's shareware.
Outlinining isn't its no.1 strength, but it's an awesome
program and was designed to run on the LX, including support
for zooming.

Think Tank can be had at
http://www.outliners.com/


I happen across a 3rd party book called
"The Think Tank Book" 260 pages
by Jonathan Kamin
Sybex copyright 1984
isbn 0-89588-224-8
Never got around to using Think Tank or the book.
Anyone want to buy it?

shipping plus ?

I also have the Webster's "New World Outliner+" disks
and manual for sale comes as part of a set with the
Webster's "New World writter II", which has mail
merge, spell checker and Thesaurus.  I planned to use
this and never did as I ended up going with
WordPerfect 5.1

found the hard drive space hit was worth avoiding the
learning curve on this other stuff.

Again shipping plus ?

This problem can be solved by adding an enter after the AL

This saves the open memo (ruining it if you didn't really want to save
it, but probably you do) which then allows all to be cLosed.

After posting to this list, I get a rejected message from the
listserver.
It seems that a 2nd e-mail message is being sent without my knowledge,
about 2 minutes later. This message has an attached file called
"MATRiX_Screen_Saver.SCR".

This file is not on my computer (that I am aware of) so I don't know who
is sending it (although it says it is sent by me) or how.

Fortunately, or list filters messages with too many lines. It looks
binary.

Any ideas?

With LXSTAT you can set lightsleep and alarm modes of palmi. Put a line
with your preferred settings into autoexec.bat. I have e.g.:

%lw%:\tools\lxstat.com B Nicad D contrast 19 Serial off T 1

which defines batteries, contrast, comport and timeout. There are many
more parameters possible.

I use the latest version of PE, which is freeware and available at

It really does all I need. Maybe you will give it a try.

I believe that Think Tank is the program that starts prompting the user
for the date. If it is, then beware. It is not y2k compliant. Running the
exe will set your system date all the way back in the bios on both the LX
and the other machines I tried it on. I couldn't find a work around. The
program is unusable unless you enjoy changing the system date every time
you finish with it.

I use WordPerfect 5.1 for outlining on the LX and then import into WP
6.1-DOS on the laptop. 6.1 has a really powerful outliner that can be
worked without reaching for the mouse. 5.1's is basic, but useful. If you
need to expand and collapse, then Tony Kan is right: use Lotus Agenda.

> Hi - What is the brand and part number of

> connected reader available?  thanks

I use a Sandisk Image-mate compact flash reader.  There part number
is SDDR-05.  I got mine at Best Buy but I've seen them all over.  I
think mine was $69 but I'm not sure.  I think they've gone down to
about $49 but again, I'm not sure.  Mine is USB.  I think they also
come in parallel models.  They did when I got mine.

They're all over the place.

Recently I've seen what looks like a new model, smaller and flatter.
Mine is shaped like half an egg.  I'm not sure if the flatter ones
are different or just the new model.  I still see both, often in the
same store.

I've also seen them on the web in a number of places.  I'm sure I've
seen them at CDW and at Sandisk's own site.

By the way, I was at Sandisk's site following a link to check
compatibility for a compact flash card at Yahoo auctions, and I
noticed they no longer mention that it's 200lx compatible.  It does
mention all the WinCE HP's and others, so I'm sure it is, but I
guess they didn't think it was worth mentioning anymore.

I don't understand what you're saying.  Would you exlpain what
you're trying to do in  more detail.  I'm not sure what "set,
execute and reset" mean.  I can see setting the keyboard buffer to a
different size/location, and resetting it back to what it was.  Is
that what you're referring to?  What do you mean by "execute"?

Are you turning off interrupts when you move the buffer pointers?
Are you handling the head and tail pointer correctly?  These are a
couple of areas to check for problems.

There's another approach that works in some cases, rather than
moving the buffer.  It's fairly easy to write a TSR that watches the
timer and slowly pumps text into the keyboard buffer, waiting if the
buffer is full.  It's also easy to pass text to the tsr from another
program, if you are writing the other program.  If you aren't it's
easy to write a program that passes the text to the tsr and then
runs the other program.  In this case you make the tsr delay as long
as needed to let the other program load before it begins stuffing
the buffer.  You can even have it watch for certain things to appear
on the screen before it activates.

This is a fairly simple TSR because it doesn't have to pop up.  It's
really more like an ISR.  It does take some familiarity with
interrupt level programming.

If you think this might be useful, send me a private email and in
the reply I can send you a couple of samples that do things similar
to both techniques, both in C and asm.

Hi.  Have you found a way to avoid cluttering the appointment
book with a call to your backup script every day?
>>

No. I unset the appt item so it wouldn't show on the week or month views, but it
still displays on the daily.  Then I just basically delete the entry every day.
If I forget a few days, it's just a matter of specifying a range of days to
delete, so it's not a much of a problem for me.

I was thinking of automating the entry to copy itself forward such as someone
already posted, but decided that I could live with the small inconvenience
rather than increasing the complexity and risk.

BTW, my backup script puts the results of the backup in

a nice way to see if there were any problems, or if the

A nice touch! Tho I'd rather be informed only when a problem occurs, otherwise I

I try to do what I can with the basic tools, tho I admit even pkzip is a
compromise.  If I had MKS, I'd probably be using it too, but it's hard for me to
invest money in tools to maintain my tools (ie, the LX) unless there's a
compelling reason.

Hello!

TO END THE THREAD:
1.) I've found the fault; some times ago I implemented in my
    script-util a reset of the kb-pointers for some (forgotten
    reason); this(!) interferes with the widened kb-buffs. I
    erased this element from my *.asm. Now it works.
2.) It was YOU, who brought me the deciding hint (indirectly!),
    by testing and verifying the vi! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
3.) Do you know the fealing, which erases after having done
    so much 'nonsense' on the net (-?

Unless it's damaged the jpg and mp3 files there should be no
problem.  Worst case, it makes them fail some crc check but I'm sure
lots of programs won't make that check if it exists.  You can always
fall back on converting it to a wav file and then back to an mp3.
Jpg's can be converted to bmp's or png's or whatever is easiest.

Jpg and mp3 files are data.  They're never executed.  They never
have control of the cpu or anything else.  Viruses attached to them
are harmless.

But if the virus is more than just attached;  if it's actually
corrupted the file, then I suppose it's lost.

Here is an useful tool i wrote, to make backup-appointments reliable,
even if battery-operated.
Especially Flash-Card-writes are kind of powerconsuming,
so that longer battery-powered writes to your Flash-Card
could end up in a damage of your data if the power goes out
before the write is finished.
With this tool you can decide, under what condition you want allow
backup by appointment.

you can download it here

http://www.eu-vorteile/hplx/voltchck.zip

It checks for Adapter-Powered-Mode.
If Battery-Operated it checks for an appropriate Voltage,
that you can set yourself via Commandline-Parameter.

Thanks to Stefan Peichl, who supported the
address and interrupt for adapter and voltagecheck.

I'm also using PalEdit which integrates well with the WWW/LX suite. It
has PIM and outline features and even supports simple project
management together with PRO/LX.

Together with GREP and FIND/LX there are good text string search
possibilities - it is a nice, handsome and useful package.

Nathalie,

> What is the code for the shift key on the desktop?;

I just tried PE with Palrun on a Libretto and the shift key on it's own
doesn't seem to have a scan code. ESC K shift c worked OK though.

> esc-k and shift locks
> and scrambles the monitor and i wouldn't want my boss to notice.

My monitor did look dead after the ESC-K and shift (BTW I press ESC,
take my finger off, then wait to make sure I see the little "ESC" on
the status line, then press the K - but using the CTRL key I hold it
while pressing the next key) .. but pressing another key brought it
alive again :)

> EMACs keys don't seem to work on a pc.

They have worked for me but I've only got old deaktops.

Subject:      vCalendar v1.0 - ADB2VCAL?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I'm trying to get a vCalendar v1.0 output from my Appointment Book.  I'm
trying to use it to send appointments to my Nokia 7110 (by using IR.EXE),
but ADB2VCAL outputs vCalendar v2.0 files out.  I've tried making a macro,
but I can't seem to format the start date/time correctly, ie:

DTSTART:YYYYMMDDTHHMMSS

where YYYY = year
MM = month
DD= day
HH = hour
MM = minute
SS = second

ie 2 Jan 2001 1:15pm =
DTSTART:20010102T131500

Also, the way repeating rules are written in vCalendar v1.0 isn't as
complex, since it requires:

RRULE:W1 #0  (Once every week)
RRULE:D1 #0  (Once every day)

etc.

Does have any suggestions for creating such a complex macro?

Or would it be possible for me to get the source of ADB2VCAL and modify it?
Or would Andreas like to do it?

Ideally, I'd like to be able to export a single particular appointment, and
just send that to my Nokia 7110, or my entire appointment book.

Perhaps, we can add a couple of parameters to ADB2VCAL?
 -version
-date
-appointment

Otherwise, has anyone had any luck sending vCalendar files to Nokia Phones,
using the Appointment Book?  I know PIM/LX outputs vCal, but is that
compatible with the Nokia 7110?

Thanks everybody

There is no start window from within READ/LX. You have to quit READ}LX
and start again - then you'll get the start window with the possibility
to pick a file if you have PICK in your path.

That's an unnecessary attempt to start a flame war.

First, I'd like to know if it's ok to post this kind of thing on
this list.  Will it get the owners/operators of the list in any
trouble?  Will it cause bad feelings among anyone?

If it's ok, I think this is exactly the kind of information that
will be useful in keeping the 200lx useful.  More and more
abandoware sites are popping up on the net.  Many are legal and
totally legitimate.  Most are not, but are not pirate sites in the
usual sense, dealing only with old programs that haven't been sold
for years.

I personally think this is a good thing.  Good software is a
terrible thing to waste.  But not if it causes hurt feelings or
causes trouble for the people that own the list.

I'm pretty serious about respecting the rights of authors to be paid
for their work.  I've been a programmer for a long time and I've
depended on that for my income most of my life, even though it was
in the form of salary.

But when that ceases to be an issue, I have no concern for ownership
rights if they become the means to deny us the use of good ideas.
Civilization moves forward by collecting and combining good ideas.
Not by hiding them.

What about it?

I remember using Word 3 for DOS back in 1992. It was pretty good for a non-WYSIWYG software!

If Mark or anyone is interested, I have READY "From the makers of
ThinkTank"
unused with the manual in new condition which you can have for $10 +
postage - To UK, Sterling #1.00 priority; To Europe $3.50 priority; To
US and rest of world, $7.70 priority or $3.21 economy.

It is limited to 32K per outline. I never used it so I don't know how
well it works.

The manual states outlines can be transferred to other programs,
specifically mentioning 123, Supercalc, Thinktank, Framework, Symphony,
Multimate, dBase ll & lll, Multiplan, Turbo Pascal, Sidekick, text
programs, e.g., wordstar, Wordperfect.

Tell me more, it sounds interesting.  Would the 486 be on the card?
How would  this interact with the LX?

Thank you !! Exactly what I need to accomplish my new
appointment-driven nightly backup! :-)

BTW another idea:

I set up my nihgtly backup this way, that it creates every other day a
backup called a.zip and every "other other" day a backup called b.zip.
(Monday: a.zip, Tuesday: b.zip, Wednesday: a.zip, Thursday: b.zip....)
I do this by creating two different appointments that call the
backup.bat with parameter a and the other day with parameter b.
Everytime it creates a new backup, it deletes the old one with the same
name.

So I can be sure that I everytime have a backup available, even if
one nightly backup failed for any reason.

Tony,

None to my knowledge. I use them all and they all have a good
documentation.

You can't do color presentations with each of them but you are truely
mobile with the palmtop and these programs.

BTW you should include FIND/LX, GREP and PGP in this package to have a
full fledged business suite :)

Hi all,

Trying to make my LX into a "speed demon" again <grin>.

My Post/LX, etc. (the whole package) hadn't been "talking" to the modem,
etc. Been working w/ Avi and reinstalled all (my own idea, his idea was
going to be easier <grin>)... It works fine w/ my older 14.4 "Creative Labs"
PC-Card modem, but doesn't work with the newer, Thaddeus bought, 56K,
low-power modem, many members on the list have used.

I made it work before(!) using the recommended "init." string with it but in
(perhaps) an unusual way.

They recommend the init. string of: ATW2537=29DT

<the paragraph below is all w/ WWW/LX and Post/LX>
The first time I tried this (back when I got the modem) in the "Modem Init"
field of "wwwsetup" and got dial tone too soon. So, I "moved" that string to
the "Dial" field and it worked fine, as long as I added the dial-up number
at the end of the string (I figured it interpreted the "DT" as "dial tone"
and dialed out, no matter where the string was. I left the "AT&F" in the
"Modem Init" field and that seemed OK.

Now, trying the same technique doesn't work.....maybe I've forgotten a step.

Anyone else on the list using WWW and Post -/LX and the low-power, 56K
modem? If you look at the setup screen in wwwsetup, what do you have in the
"Modem Init" and "Dial" fields?

TIA,

--tim

PS. I'll "accept" <grin> lines from your .cfg files, just trying to use the
setup interface to keep from accidentally messing things up.

Hello!

I use (the undocumented feature of) Launcher in filer.ini
with success. But it's annoying, that every time filer is
started, one has to climp up from the a:- and c:-root.
Is there a way, to bring filer in a new start to the last
dir(s)?

Hello!

I don't know, but I found an interesting behaviour of filer:
As known, you can jump to a file-name by pressing the first
letter-key.
I now have a batch with keyin-prog, which takes over %1 a
string(!) to filer, and there selects (and executes) the appropriate
file:
        09-klo.wk1
        09_ga.wk1
        09_in.wk1

I can f.i. select the third by executing
        2 09_i
on the DOS-prompt-line.

                Klaus.

All these discussions about backing up remind me of the reason why I
don't do automated backups:   the risk of low battery during an unattended
backup, resulting in flash disk corruption.   Is there a way test the
battery
level in a batch file?   I am aware of the utilities available, I am just
not
aware about testing with a batch file.

hi Jeff :)
i miss your reply to my nice letter i sent to you a few weeks ago :)

Maybe what I am talking about is indeed not what I intend to, because I
REALLY intended to talk about Novus ordo Seclorum: New Order of the Ages

 From: Jeff Johns <jeffj@scott.net>
 Date: Sun, 10 Oct 1999 20:44
 Subject: New World Order

Hi gang! I'm glad that I have piqued the curiosity of at least a few people.
First of all let me state that I am a Christian. I'm probably not the best
example of a Christian and constantly struggle to 'do the right thing.' I
know that there are many things for which I will have to answer on judgement
day but at least I'm trying.
 I am a normal guy with a wife and two kids. I am a blue collar guy who
works for a living. I am not some freak who lives on the fringes of society
but I am what many would consider to be 'right wing'. I believe in God,
Jesus Christ and my rights as an American and as a human being. I know a
couple of you are not Americans, but the events that are occuring all around
us affect all of us in the global community.
 I truly believe that the is a worldwide conspiracy involving factions of
the U.S. goverment and other world goverments to form a global alliance
which many of us call the New World Order. Heck, it's even printed on our
U.S. Currency. I believe that the Bible, speaks of these events and that it
is up to people like me to warn others of the impending dangers which we
face.
 I have thought long and hard what to say to you guys and where to point you
for information. I belong to a mailing list called TheWatchmen. We are a
group of Christians and we discuss the many conspiracy theories which seem
to be so numerous in today's society. I would like to extend an invitation
to each of you to join the mailing list, Bob Myers of the hplx-l list is
already a member. Tom Hoover, I believe you would make an excellent member
because God has already chosen you by giving you the talents to create the
HisWord software so that others may be able to experience His teachings in a
'high tech' manner. Neil & Chris, we would welcome your insights since you
live under a different goverment than those of us on The Watchmen list. I
must forewarn all of you, that on this list we are not afraid of expressing
our faith in God and there is a lot of information which many of the more
knowledgeable members present that you may consider to be radical. Many of
these discussions are about things such as the Waco incident and other
events such as this. Everything we discuss are things that the liberal media
will not dare report and all things we talk about we do so that we may
become better informed and spread the Lord's word when the Goverment tells
people things which are unholy and possibly done in Satan's name.
 If any of you are interested in joing the mailing list, I would be happy to
send you an electronic invitation. I am sicere when I say, that if you are a
Christian and if you are concerned with the current state of affairs in
today's society we would love to have you. I truly feel as if the Lord is
using me in a manner to spread His word and to warn others of the evils
being spread by the evil factions of the soon to be worldwide goverment. I
encourage all of you to read Numbers 10:9, I have somewhat taken this verso
to be my personal motto as I try to warn others.
 I used to worry about what others might think of my strong biblical beliefs
and some of the fears that I have. I no longer care because I believe in our
Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and I believe that as long as I spread His
word, I will be protected Him and His love.
 I appreciate the time that you have taken to read this letter. I do truly
believe that because all of you took the time to ask about my beliefs that
the Lord has somwhat spoken to each of you. Some of you may think that
sounds crazy, but if you will just allow yourself to listen, it is amazing
what the Lord will both show and tell you. May God bless you all and I once
again would welcome you to join TheWatchmen and educate yourselves in the
ways in which Satan is trying to infiltrate our everyday lives through the
New World Order which is being forced upon all of us.

Is this message one of the ways Satan is trying to infiltrate our everyday
lives?  This is an hp200lx group...personally my religion is the 200lx

I wrote a little utility (5k) a while ago that does just what you need I
think. I used it to warn me if my batteries were low before dialing up
with a modem.

Called with no arguments, it returns the main battery voltage as a
whole number, i.e. 2.43V will be displayed as 243

If you specify a voltage as an argument (again a whole number), it returns
0 for the errorlevel if the battery voltage is equal or greater than the
argument, and returns 1 if the battery voltage is lower.

In a batch file it can be used something like this

REM Want at least 2.40V
battchk 240
if errorlevel 1 goto toolow

REM do stuff
...
goto end

:toolow
echo Batteries too low

:end


If you're interested, let me know and I'll send it.

So it's lack of math that causes one to believe that cancer,
allergies, and ear infections are caused by misaligned spinal bones?

I use a 56K modem from Thaddeus along with some 14.4 modems.  I found it =

better if I tinkered with the s37=3D parameter.  The one suggested by =

s37=3D29 and this allowed me to connect only about 1/3 of the time.  When =
I tried
s37=3D30 it wouldn't connect at all.  With s37=3D28 everything works =
well.  I know
some people do best with s37=3D30 so try several ways.  Here are my Modem =
Init
and Dial entries:

ModemInit=3DAT&Fx3m0w2s37=3D28

Dial=3DATDT2213817

You could just leave Filer open all of the time.  If you are closing =
Filer with
the normal Menu Quit sequence, then Filer is staying in memory anyway.  =
So
leaving it open may not affect the amount of memory you have available =

A few days ago I offered exactly what you=B4re looking for:

Here is an useful tool i wrote, to make backup-appointments reliable,
even if battery-operated.
Especially Flash-Card-writes are kind of powerconsuming,
so that longer battery-powered writes to your Flash-Card
could end up in a damage of your data if the power goes out
before the write is finished.
With this tool you can decide, under what condition you want allow
backup by appointment.

you can download it here

http://www.eu-vorteile.de/hplx/voltchck.zip

It checks for Adapter-Powered-Mode.
In this case Battery-Voltage is irrelevant. Errorlevel =3D 0
If Battery-Operated it checks for an appropriate Voltage,
that you can set yourself via Commandline-Parameter.
If OK Errorlevel =3D 0 else you get Errorlevel 1

Happy LXingin
Juergen.

Hey -
    I CAN'T STAND THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I know I'm new to the list and basically a "lurker" because I am an end
user not
a programmer like many of you thus I don't have anything of value to
contribute, but
definitely pick up many helpful ideas ...............but why even under
"fluff" should ANYONE
be subjected to this type of
insanity?????????????????????????????????????????????

    I can usually ignore this type of stuff --- but it doesn't seem to end,
on what at first
blush appeared to be a very active and HIGHLY helpful group, is fast
becoming more of
another attempt by "god's" people to spread their insanity where it isn't
wanted!!!

    Whomever is the actual moderator of this list I ask a question of you,
Will this type of
drivel be allowed to continue? If so I shall gladly cut my nose off to spite
my face and remove
myself from this list at the cost of losing very valuable helpful
information.

    Many THANKS - and somewhat sorry for wasting the bandwidth with this
post.
terry

Terry (and others with similar feelings),
Sometimes the noise on this list exceeds the useful information.  We have
already lost two important guys to this community Andres (who is really
gone) and Avi (who now lurks as you and I do, and only answers in bulk.)
It would be a shame to lose more of us, because then what is the point of
the list.

However, just before you sign off, there are a few alternatives:
1.  Set your membership to filter out the FLUFF messages.  Al has
graciously set it up so that is possible.  The folks on the list don't
always cooperate but generally they are good about putting the word fluff
in the subject line.

2.  Set up a separate email account to receive the list.  I have
personally chosen this method, and it cut down my frustration level
tremendously.  I set it up with Juno, because of how easily the messages
can be deleted.

3.  Don't even read the mail from certain senders.  As you are on the
list for a time the ones to delete without reading get more and more
obvious.

Please don't leave without first trying one or more of the above.  The
list is really full of wonderful people, but as with any family a few of
the more alpha types tend to dominate.  It is always best to just pat
them on the head, pretend to understand what they are saying and move on.

Super!

It's working(!).

I'll try all of the suggestions I've received. Thanks to all who've sent me
on and off list suggestions (one of which was to CHECK my own handwriting
.... I'd written the Thaddeus-provided init. string down and .... <sigh> ...
here it comes .... I'd replaced the "S" w/ a "5" <ACK! It does look like I
rewrote the instructions with my left foot>).

I'd read about s-registers a long time ago, when I was really trying to
"tweak" the old, slower modems of yesteryear. Didn't even SEE the 5, even
though I knew better.

So, thanks to the list for being a second set of eyes AND for providing me a
number of new init. strings, etc. to tinker with!

Did Jeff send this?  Why then are the original message and headers
from Natalie?  Did I miss something?  It just looks so strange.
I have known Jeff to be very careful about these things, that's

Thanks for your program.  I think you may have restored my faith in
doing things unattended on my LX.   I probably missed it before
because of my skepticism after losing important files in the past.

Hello again.  As I contemplate the posibility of going
back to unattented backups (currently I use a batch file,
but i watch the whole time) I wonder if anyone knows of
any utility which allows one to check quickly for ANY file
with the Archive bit on.    Xcopy does this slowly file by
file, but since it iterates back and forth with the batch file,
the process is a bit slow.  Ditto for pkzip.    I would like a
way to check all my data files in one fell swoop, very quickly,
and if no files are changed, abort the backup, thus saving
time.    i am thinking of the speed with which the ATTRIB
program does its thing.   A program that only checks
for changes should be just as fast, I think.

Any thoughts?

I concur with Rev. Schultz.  Set up filters, or otherwise ignore the
"FLUFF".  It's not being "forced" upon anyone when its sent in this
manner.  The reciever has to "open" the actual message... in most
cases.

Personally... I enjoy these little jaunts into OT-land.  Gives me a
greater insight to the community herein... and to a much lesser degree,
the world.

The list is valuable.  I would highly advise you to stay and get very
comfortable with your DELETE key or whatever function allows you to
quickly kill off an email that you don't want.

Clearly, a few weeks ago, it got pretty hot but there was still go
information flowing (even if I did not care about Big Iron Old
computers! (G))

"STUFF" will inevitably crop up as it does in everyday life.  Sometimes
it pays to be part of the silent majority and DELETE it, sometimes you
can fight it.  Do your part to fight it off the list if necessary.

PayPal Now International!
=========================

A businessman in Rio de Janeiro needs to send money to his family in
Seoul.  No problem.  A web surfer in Venice, Italy, wants to buy an
item from an auction seller in Venice, California.  Thanks to
PayPal, it's as easy as email.

People from 26 countries around the world can now send and receive
money online with PayPal.  PayPal is already the #1 online payments
service in the US -- over 4 million users have signed up since we
launched our service one year ago.  And now users from all over the
globe will be able to take advantage of the world's fastest,
easiest, and safest way to move money.

It's simple to sign up for an international PayPal account.  Just
complete a brief registration form, confirm your email address, and
add a credit or debit card to fund your payments.  Registration is
completely free, and all transactions are conducted in US dollars.
PayPal is faster than mailing a cashier's check, and much cheaper
than sending an expensive money wire.

Also, all PayPal users in the US have automatically had their
accounts upgraded to be 100% compatible with international users.

Residents in the following countries are now eligible for PayPal
accounts:

          Australia                  Mexico
          Austria                    Netherlands
          Belgium                    New Zealand
          Brazil                     Norway
          Canada                     Portugal
          Denmark                    Singapore
          France                     South Africa
          Germany                    South Korea
          Hong Kong                  Spain
          Ireland                    Sweden
          Israel                     Switzerland
          Italy                      United Kingdom
          Japan

Whether you're online with a personal computer or on the go with a
Web-enabled cell phone, PayPal gives you the power to send payments
to just about anyone in the world.  PayPal is already accepted for
purchases on over 2.5 million auctions on eBay(tm) and on hundreds
of sites all over the Internet.  And with our advanced security
technology keeping your money safe, PayPal isn't just the easiest
way to send money around the globe, it's also the most secure.

PayPal is available for both international consumers and businesses --
just register for the type of account that's right for you.

To complete the simple international registration process, just fill
out our short registration form that includes your name, address,
and email:

  https://secure.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_international-register

A confirmation link will be sent to your email address; by clicking
on the link and confirming your password at the PayPal website, you
will enable others to send money to you at this email address.

Finally, you'll be asked to register either a credit card or debit
card to fund your payments.  PayPal will then send two credits to
your card (at our expense) that are labeled with unique PayPal
merchant number identifiers; when you call your card company to
learn the number identifiers of these debits and enter them on our
website, it proves to us that you are the card's owner and we will
allow you to start making payments using your card.

If you have any questions about PayPal's new international service
or registration process, please be sure to visit our online
International Help Center for more information:

  http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/hlp/help_global_intl-outside

Thank you for your interest in PayPal's international service, the
fastest, easiest, and safest way to send money in the world!

Beware...if you use paypal you may be screwed.  People on Ebay have used
paypal only to find out that if they have a problem they don't have they the
ususal remedy of lodging a complain with the credit card issuer.  Apparently
pay pal represents the seller on ebay and can do nothing to help buyers if
there is a problem.  Use pay pal at your own risk.

No, Jeff didn't send it. The female who proclaims herself to me be a
doctor sent it. I don't really understand half the stuff she sends and
apparently she got hold of an old email of mine and send it to the list.
Personally, I can't figure here out.... maybe someone else can.

I have received several thousand dollars thru PayPal with absolutely no
problems either from a seller's point of view and with no complaints from
buyers.

Is Read.exe the same software as READ/LX that can be downloaded from

I have tried READ/LX previously, and find that it is quite difficult to
read etext, as it displays one line at a time, and forces you to read at a
continuous pace.

In order for a PayPal transaction to be protected, it is my understanding
that the seller needs to be "verified" a process which depends too much on
third-party bankers, IMHO.

because apparently this letter had been privately sent a year ago and was
never meant for
the board at all.

I will try as some of you suggested about how to ignore certain postings -
Many THANKS.
--The ironic part is I believe in certain conspiracy theories / and have a
rather strong conviction
about religion :::::: but those things have plenty of places to be viewed on
the NET and there are
very few LX sites / discussions, and after the heated discussions of a month
ago I personally
couldn't stand more of the same whether I agree with the ideas presented or
disagree. Everything has
a place and this place is for LX related items.

Many Thanks to those again for suggestions both on the board and privately.
And again to each and everyone of you Please accept my APOLOGY and Please
Mr. Jeff Johns
accept my APOLOGY for not correctly "catching" the clues that the email in
question was never
meant for public viewing.

Sincerely,
Terry

The verification process serves as proof that you are actually who you say
you are thereby reducing the chance of credit card fraud.

I know people who have "bought" and "sold" thousands of dollars worth of
collectibles on ebay only to get screwed.  There are scam artists on ebay
and paypal provides none of the protections mandated by the FTC for credit
card transactions.

Then perhaps Al Kind needs to look into this.   This is an act of subversion
if I ever saw one.    It reminds me of the fake Avi and Peter posts of long
ago, except that this time it is apparently traceable.

I don't remember if I ever sent it to the list or not. If I did it had to
have been about a year ago when the referenced email list, The Watchmen,
was founded.

I know a couple of our members here on HPLX-L are Watchmen members. I do,
however, find it extremely odd that she would dig it out of the archives
and repost the entire thing to the list.

I don't apologize for my religious or political views. I am just baffled
about this message.....

For what is worth, I did not find it on either hplx-l search engine.

I have run into activist atheists before on the Internet before, but never
on this list, until now.   To me this is a deliberate attempt at fanning the
antireligious feelings on the list in order to prove a point.  The two
annoyed (but misguided) responses prove what she intended, as far
as I am concerned.   Those of us who respect the feelings of the list
have managed to tone down the subject of religion, so what you wrote
before about her knowing what buttons to push speaks volumes.
I hope it doesn't go any further   .  .   .

I guess it is obvious that I do believe in a certain amount of conspiracy
theory.  :-|

All,

Any suggestions for an ISP connection for my HP200LX?  I've used my LX for
years with WWW/LX and Brightnet (in Ohio).  After some recent changes, I've
had to cancel my Brightnet connection.  I've tried some local ISP's but I
guess I'll have to enlist DA's help to alter my logon scripts as it appears
most of the ISP's in Columbus, Ohio add "welcome messages" and other
garbage.  Anyhow, I got to thinking, what about this "free internet" stuff?
Anybody using a 200LX with any element of success with this?

Any help will be DEEPLY appreciated!

David

No, the macro language is very un-flexable.  It is just for recording and

I don't believe the ATA flash will work in the 95LX.  These systems can
handle SRAM and linear flash (Type 1), but have no means of handling the
later specification cards.  Unless someone has written special software
drivers that perform some kind of magic, these are not right for you.

Its relevance is that it has a lot to do with why we find MD types=20

SanDisk states that the following card series will work on the 95LX, with
the proper drivers:

SDP5-XX
SDPL5-XX
SDP5A-XX (except XX= 80, 110, or 175, which are Type III cards).

SanDisk has an HP FAQ at
http://www.sandisk.com/support/main_technical_support.html.

Because the 95LX has DOS 3.22, the maximum size would be 32MB (even with
Stacker), unless there is a way to partition the card into several drives.

I have just purchased a flash card from Scott, but haven't gotten it yet. I
will let you know how it works in my 95LX as soon as I have a chance to test
it.

I have heard, though, that you need to remove flash cards from the 95LX when
not in use, or the battery will drain. More on that when I have a chance to
do some testing.

Interesting.  "Q" is to "quiet" the DOS messages, and I was thinking that the
German version with "s" was something like "silent" .. maybe it should be "r"
for ruhe <g>?

Glad it worked for you, whatever the doc.

Hi, everyone.

I'm a newcomer to the list - it's great to see such international cooperation!
I've been using an old HP95LX for a while now, and hope to obtain a 200LX when
finances/opportunity permits...

Someone just described a 20MB ATA type-II PCMCIA card as 'perfect for HP95LX' -
does the '95 support ATA then? I always thought only SRAM & some FLASH cards
could be used.
AFAIK, the 95's slot can only physically take type-I (3.3mm thick), anyway!

Hans,

I would question that. More and more of us have pocket Digital Cameras. =
These
can easily be connected to the video port of a Datashow. A number of them
take Compact Flash cards ... so does the HP200LX.

Imagine this :
 1. Prepare a presentation with any text or graphic software on the 200LX
 2. Save it as JPG images on the CF card
 3. Put the CF card in the Digital Camera for it to read and display the
    slides on the DataShow

This would be the most portable presentation set in existence. The only
problem I have so far is to save the images as JPG images compatible with =
my
Nikon Coolpix 950. Maybe Stephan Peichl can give a suggestion on the =
proper
image format.

The 95LX has a Type II slot physically, but I believe there are restrictions
on what it can handle (such as modems and network cards). Can anyone give us
more information on what the 95LX can and can't use?

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

Hi Everyone,

I could use solid private or public advice. As most of you are aware there
is a problem with the HP 200LX hinge which results in the cracking of the
top case, the side that has the HP logo.  It turned out that a significant
percentage of the units we received from Holland have at least a hairline
crack. In the meantime over half the repairs we do involve replacing the
cracked case.

Fortunately, HP is willing to send us the mold -- otherwise, manufacturing
the case would have been prohibitively expensive.  I have asked for an Asia
manufacturer HP would recommend, but they seem to want me to handle it in
the U.S.  Here is what they emailed me:

"We are pleased to ship you the mold. The mold will be prepared for
shipment,
greased and properly crated together with any relevant inserts. Some
servicing may be required at your molding vendor to deploy the mold."

The problem is we have never worked with a molding vendor. We want to work
with someone that we can be sure offers us quality, fair pricing, and a
reasonable turn-around time.  Does anyone on the list know of a good vendor
or where to start looking.

THANK YOU.

Check the FAQ -> http://www.hplx.net/faq.faq.html#04

Says MSD shows the 100LX CPU as 80186, and I believe the 100 and 200 share
identical processor types and native speeds.

I think the native speed is something on the order of 7mhz, and and double speed
is something like 15mhz.  I just know for sure that the native speed is faster
than a plain IBM XT (4.77mhz), but maybe someone else on the list has the exact
numbers (when the fluff dies down).

I had a client friend who called me in March that his WinFax Lite (Win

his transmission log and found that the last trasmission was in Nov 99
and all the other transmissions (after 1/1/00) were "pending"

If you were using C and PAL, it would be available, but I think you've
been talking about ASM programs. Here is the relevant code from PAL. You
should be able to figure out what you need.

/* --------------------------------------------------------------------
   Module:  CHECKSM.C

   Subject: Check if SysMgr is loaded.
   -------------------------------------------------------------------- */
#define IRET_CODE 0xCF
typedef unsigned char far *VECTOR;

VECTOR far *IntVectors = (VECTOR far *)0L;

/* --------------------------------------------------------------------
   CheckSysMgr:
   Checks if the System Manager is loaded. Returns TRUE if SysMgr is
   present, FALSE when it is not available.
   -------------------------------------------------------------------- */
int CheckSysMgr(void)
{
   return IntVectors0x7e != NULL && *IntVectors0x7e != IRET_CODE &&
          IntVectors0x7f != NULL && *IntVectors0x7f != IRET_CODE;
}

who lives in France forwarded something to the list, nor do I care to hear

insist on spamming me in private email will find themselves reported to
their ISP and possibly have harassment charges filed against them. If you
think I won't do so, then try me. Geesh.......

To those that sent me private email that was positive about the posting of
something by this particular French person, thank you.

I am not trying to add fuel to any fire.... but I simply will not accept
anymore hate mail from anyone on this subject or any other subject.

I am dropping this subject, which I didn't start. If someone else keeps it

Hi Hal,

Is it injection molding you are looking for, or some other type?
If it is injection, I may have a name or two in Omaha and Lincoln.

Hi again!

There is one small problem with the weatherfax software which you guys =
might be able to help me with. The graphic display of the downloaded =
weatherfax always comes up in white on black which makes it difficult to =
read. I can toggle the display with "On" and "/" of course, but the next =
time I go back to the graphic display, it's reversed again. This isn't a =
major problem, but it is rather annoying.

I tried changing the reverse video setting with LXSTAT in a batch file. =
WeFax then came up with the menus (text mode) in reverse video, but as soon =
as I entered the graphic screen the screen mode was reset, and when I =
returned to the menus they were in normal video again.

If there is no more "permanent" way of reversing the video than whatever =
LXSTAT does, it seems the only way would be to have a small TSR which keeps =
changing to reverse video once every second. I'm not sure if this would =
cause problems for weatherfax reception though, as timing is rather =
critical in WeFax software. (That's the reason there is no such software =
for EPOC. It's a multi tasking OS, so it won't give the software sufficient =
control of the CPU for weatherfax.)

Hi again!

My heartfelt thanks to Werner Furlan in particular, and also to several =
other users on the list for useful suggestions.

I now have weatherfax reception running smoothly on the HP200LX. In the end =
it turned out TarFax just wouldn't run on the HP, but Werner found another =
program which works very well. I have, however found I probably need a =
better antenna on the yacht to get the quality I would like. The =
propagation leaves a bit to be desired this far north. So far, I've had =
reasonable success with Bracknell on 8040kHz. Any suggestions from other =
weatherfax users for which other stations might be worth trying?

I haven't been able to find a RTTY program that will work on the LX. A =
search on S.U.P.E.R. came up blank, and all I found on download.com and =
shareware.com was one program for WindoZzzze and one for CP/M (!!!).

Apart from the RTTY problems, the main problem now is printing the =
weatherfax images. The WeFax software supports the following printers:

Diconix 150
OkiData
Epson 120dpi
Epson 240dpi
Epson 24 pin
HP Laser 150 DPI
HP Laser 300 DPI

I have a Canon BJC80, but even though the Canon can be set to Epson LQ =
mode, I have been unable to print to the it from the WeFax software. To =
keep the variables at a minimum, I've been trying to do this by cable from =
the PC, but I get is beeps, form-feeds and garbage. I have tried all three =
different Epson settings in the software. On the HP (via IR), the program =
seemingly goes through the motions of sending the image to the printer, but =
the printer stays silent, so I may have a different (or additional) problem =
there.

If I can't get the program to print direct to the BJC80, could you guys =
please suggest a small DOS utility which would be able to print a .GIF to =
the BJC80, preferably in the native BJC80 mode?

PS. I'm very impressed with the level of knowledge on this list! I've been =
an EPOC user for the past couple of years, and before that a WindoZzzze =
user for several years, so DOS is a long time ago, but thanks to this list =
and my HP, I'm having quite a Deja Vue experience...

Howdy!

I could do with a time display on the HP while running my weatherfax =
software. I seem to remember from my DOS days that there was a small TSR =
which would display the time in one (user defineable?) corner of the =
screen. Any ideas?

Another nice little pair of utilities I remember were MARK.COM and =
RELEASE.COM. I ran MARK.COM before loading a TSR and RELEASE.COM to get rid =
of it again. I also remember using WARM.COM and COLD.COM. I had different =
AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files for different environments, and used =
batch files to copy the correct files to the root and then automatically =
reboot the computer. Oh, and there was FAKEY.COM. When run in a batch file, =
the command "FAKEY hello" would send the keystrokes "hello" to the next =
program in the batchfile. Of course some programs would flush the buffer so =
FAKEY wouldn't work... Now that I have a 200LX, I sure wish I'd taken =
better care of all those old DOS tweaks...

PS. As I use my Ericsson MC218 and GSM phone for all my Internet access, =
I'd be REALLY grateful for direct URLs to the TSR clock if at all possible. =
Searching the net can be rather tedious at 9600 baud... There have been =
numerous occasions when I've wanted a software upgrade for the MC218 and =
have spent 10 - 15 minutes wading through all the nice graphics on the =
site, and then 15 seconds downloading the actual file. I wish they'd =
understand that an established user looking for the latest upgrade has =
already been convinced their software is the best thing since sliced bread =
and doesn't need to read all the hype!

Gripe mode off...

That is exactly what I've been trying to do! Unfortunately, I have not =

the MC218, but once the file has been edited and saved back to the CF, the =
camera refuses to recognise it. I believe this is because the Nikon files =
contain some extra information (shutter speed, f-stop etc.) which is not =

I have also experienced some problems with the camera when files have been =
saved back to the disk from the PC. I would therefore suppose that the best =
idea would be to use a different CF card from the one you normally use for =
taking pictures, and save all the images to the card in one go.

Now, if some nice programmer out there would write a little utility that =
converts jpegs from other sources to the special jpeg format the Nikon =
uses, I'd be a very happy camper!

Hello!

Well, I tried it and found the source in the misc dir, but my checks
give no difference.
0000:007c-7f are in both situations equal, so the pointed to arrays.
1. without 200 loaded, 2. with 200 in an DOS-shell.
Have I understood the c-source right?

Hello!

This brought me to the check of the whole interrupt-table in both
situations. So I found a workaround, probably uncertain:
The Print Screen Vectors differ:
Plain DOS: 0000:0014 54 ff 00 f0 = f000:ff54
200   DOS: 0000:0014 65 1c b4 11 = 11b4:1c65.
I will test the reliability.

Domingo,

if you use LXBATCH for your backup batch files, you can have the same
flexibility and control over battery voltage (and a bunch of other
things, like free disk space, presence of the memory card, etc).

PMFJI, I assume that your are using an HP LX with DS upgrade.
If so, what is the connection speed with the 56K modem? Can ou
get up to 28.8? Any potential pitfalls to watch out for?

Basically I just should like to know if it worth it to buy one.

Thanks for any info.

I compiled the function as a standalone program and tested it before
posting earlier. It does return 1 if SysMgr is loaded (from a DOS shell),
and 0 if it isn't. So maybe there is a problem in your interpretation.
I don't have the source at the moment, but I believe IntVector was a far
pointer to far pointer to char, so make sure you are looking at the right
spot for differences.

Hal,
Unless it's cheap and easy I wonder if it's worth the bother to
manufacturer a replacement case versus coming up with a reliable patch
to fix the crack?

Will a change in case material prevent future cracks or will changes to
the case design be required?

It is encouraging (and surprising) to hear that HP is willing to help by
providing the old case molds.  I'll have to revise my opinion of an evil
corporation that abandoned us to a fate of Palms and WinCEs.

Cheers... Russ

Hal,

  This is wonderful news - keep us informed of the progress.  Gee, what
color(s) should I order?      Will some stronger material be available?  Will a
fix for the hinge problem be far behind??

take care,
john

Hi Klaus,

I think you're looking too low. These are interrupt vectors or far
pointers, so 4 bytes long. In lxref I found System Manager Services uses
7E and 7F for all services, so the tests in the source code make sense.
Multiplying by 4 I get 1F8 and 1FC.

Using debug to look at the interrupt table I find:

Plain DOS:  0000:01F8           00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
200 DOS:    0000:01F8           68 37 B5 14 6D 24 B5 14

In plain DOS the vectors are both null, so SYSMGR is not loaded.

I don't know what the test against CF would be for in the checksm.c
source. When the system manager is exited, the above vectors are both
cleared.

Hope this helps,
Mike

7.91 MHz according to Qman's home page. The 186 also supports some
additional instructions compared to the 8086, which can give better
performance (assuming the program was written to support the 186/286 of
course!). What those instructions are precisely escapes me at the moment,
but I'm sure someone (Barry?, Stefan?) can fill in the blanks...

It looks to me as though a minor modification could be made to the mold to
add material to the finished cover in the hinge area. The slots in the end
caps would have to be widened to accommodate the change, but that's easy.
Fortunately, adding material to the cover means removing material from the
mold tooling, which is also easy.

Such a change would erase the crack problem for good. The tooling or a
drawing of it would have to be examined to make sure there's no
complicating factor I'm overlooking, though.

Esthetics would be slightly worse, as the line formed by the edge of the
cylindrical portion of the cover would be interrupted in the area of the
end caps. This seems to me a small price to pay for permanent elimination
of the problem. HP jettisoned good engineering practice in favor of style,
I'm afraid. Having said that, though, I'm impressed that HP is willing to
part with the tooling.

Hal, if you can get me a photo or a drawing of the tool and tell me what
specific material the cover is made from, I may be able to help you select
a vendor. I'm in Southern California and there are many potential vendors
here, but you may prefer to use one near you. I can't be as much help in
the latter case, but I can work at a distance if you can't find local help.

Hal;
Here is a local manufacture where I live here in New Castle PA.
They do custom plastic injection molding.
WEST PENN PLASTIC INC
Phone, 724-654-2081

Maybe they can help, or recommend someone who can.

If yor gonna make new cases from the original molds
Why not improve upon them by using better strength of
materials?  Wen yu find a vendor workshop ask about types
of plastic.  Have yu checked Thomas Register?   Another
product to sell.

That is great news.

Hopefully, maybe you can find an outfit that can do something to
reinforce the hinge area - thicken that area of plastic or a strip of
kevlar tape or some steel rebar, perhaps!!!

Good luck.

PS - maybe in another year they will allow you to manufacture the whole
unit!

Hi Hal & list

Further to my earlier email Hal

The material shrinks slightly as it cools so its important a "same shrink"
material is used if you want to look at changing materials else it wont
fit.  Even 0.5% difference may not be tolerable.

As far as fixing the hinge crack, it is probably caused by "flow lines" in
the plastic.  If you alter it ie make thicker then you risk causing a
weakness somewhere else in the product. A rework with a new injection point
on right hinge would solve the best if feasible. Depends on the mold design.

As an alternative once you have the mold you "may" be able to use the mold
to pressure die cast in aluminium or zink.  WAY KEWL..  at only a small
premium to plastic case. No broken hinges then  :))))

Regards

Russell

IMO, the design is flawed. Eliminate the flaw, which looks easy at first
blush, and a stronger material won't be required.

S should stand for "still" (=silent).
Seems that the software developers have forgotten to translate

<VBG>

seriously though "crooked back syndrome" is only common in HPLX solver
users, Jornada slide show users, XFinder users and Thaddeus technicians:

Five surgeons are discussing who makes the best patients on whom to
operate.
 The first surgeon says, "I like to see HPLX solver users on my operating
table, because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered."
 The second responds, "Yeah, but you should try Jornada slide show users!
Everything inside them is color coded."
 The third surgeon says, "No, I really think XFinder users are the best;
everything inside them is in alphabetical order."
 The fourth surgeon chimes in: "You know, I like Thaddeus
technicians...those guys always understand when you have a few parts left
over at the end, and when the job takes longer than you said it would."
 But the fifth surgeon shut them all up when he observed: "You're all
wrong. Politicians and conspiracy theorists are the easiest to operate on.
There
are no guts, no heart, no spine, and the head and butt are interchangeable."

I apologise for sending the conspiracy theory to the list - it was meant for
Jeff personally. I have so much work and e-mail to do - my address book
(adr.csv) is bulging to have a vasectomy. Jeff and I have Alot in common, in
fact 99.99% of our genetic material is the same - Now, if we would just

Use the palmtops "mailbox service" to find out, if SysMgr is
loaded or not:

...
mov ax,5101h   ;mailbox service: read index 1
int 15h
cmp ax,7072h   ;if index 1=7072h then...
je  loaded     ;...SysMgr is loaded (SDK page 106)
...

The mailbox service provides storage and retrieval of any of 8
words in extended BIOS RAM. These can be used to pass
information from one program to another.

to get an idea, which JPEG format Nikon uses, you should
display an image with LXPIC and then press the 'f' key to get
the file information.

On the 3rd line of the file information box you will find,
which JPEG compression is used in this file. It should be
something like S0_411 or S0_111. Anyway, if the JPEG you
created by a graphics software uses another compression,
it is likely, that the built in software of the camera cannot
handle it.

Some graphics software allows you to select JPEG parameters
used for "...saving as JPEG".

Good software allows the selection of

-compression method
-compression ratio
-sampling rate
-chromatic weighting

In my LXPIC notation, the first 2 characters represent the
compression method:

S0 = SOF0 (baseline DCT)
S1 = SOF1 (extended sequential DCT)
S2 = SOF2 (progressive DCT)
S3 = SOF3 (sequential lossless)

the last three numbers represent the color space, sampling rate
and chromatic weighting:

411 = 3 components with chrominace subsampling: Four times more
      luminance values than Cb and Cr values
421 = 3 components with chrominace subsampling: Four times more
      luminance values than Cr and twice as much Cb than Cr values
111 = 3 components with no subsampling: Y, Cb, Cr
100 = only one luminance component (usually grayscale)

Conversions from one format to another are far from trivial.
Just make sure, the output of your software uses the same
format as the Nikon. Use LXPIC to check it.

Another point could be image dimensions but should be no
problem, because almost every software allows for resizing
of the output.

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

The HP 95LX conforms to PCMCIA Release 1.0 electrically and physically
accomodates the thicker Type II card size permitted by Release 2.0 (Type I
cards are limited to 3.3 mm in thickness, Type II cards are up to 5.0 mm
thick).

Release 1.0 was only intended for memory cards, although some tricky special
cards were created that gave the 95LX a modem that fit in the slot.  The
only one I ever used myself was the New Media PalmModem which came with a
2400 Baud modem and looked to the system like a ROM card with fax and
terminal emulation software on it.

PC Card Release 2.0 added quite a lot to the functions of the PCMCIA
standard - beyond the physical aspects.  Without a chipset that supports the
added functions of Release 2.0, the HP 95LX cannot use the advanced I/O
cards (modems, SCSI adapters, network interfaces,...) and it cannot offer
support for card and socket services.  ATA flash cards (Compact Flash cards
also appear as ATA flash cards) require advanced features that are not
present in the 95LX.

That defines the limits for the 95LX: static RAM cards, linear flash cards,
and specialty modem cards.

By the way, the 100LX/200LX is not fully compliant with PCMCIA Release 2.0
either.  The first standard was released in September, 1990.  The standard
was updated in September, 1991, but did not include the full description of
Card Services until September, 1992 - by which time it was probably too late
to get everything into the ROM and chipset.

They both use an 80186.  This is about half way between the 8086 and
the 80286.  It has all the opcodes of the 286 except those involving
protected mode.  It's a little less than halfway between the speed
of the 8086 and the 80286.

Because it has all the 286 opcodes it will run software written for
the 286 as long as it doesn't try to go into protected mode.

Nathalie,

I believe the appropriate scan codes (different for each shift key) are:-
  Left Shift  = #2a00
  Right Shift = #3600

For anyone 'playing' with this subject, there's a nice little DOS program
called SCANCODE - it comes with the SCANTEST utility, which works at a low-
level, and prints scancodes of *any* keypress on *any* system. The SCANCODE
TSR can do all sorts of interesting things, like 'faking' a scancode sequence
at a given time, or when a certain string appears onscreen. It can also cause
any keypress to produce an arbitary series of faked keypresses!. I obtained my
copy from the authors website:-

I sent you a private email when I read that yesterday, thinking it
was you who sent it.  After reading further into the digest and
finding out you weren't responsible I thought of sending an
explanation, but I realized that I had sent it to the email address
that was in your purported post and that was no longer the address
you were using.  So I wasn't sure you got it.

I did use the word spam and I wonder if your use of the word spam
indicates that you are responding to my letter after all.  If so, I
think you should read it again.

It was a request not to send such things to the list, thinking at
that time that you had.  But it was polite and, I think, good
natured and respectful and not at all insulting.  If anything it was
a friendly letter.  I don't believe it could be thought of even
remotely as hate mail.

Please let me know (in private email) if mine is the one you are
responding to.  Some of your wording makes me think maybe it was.

If you do this will you get some spares to make them available as
replacement parts?  If the price isn't too high, I'd like to buy one
or two to have in case they're needed someday.

If the price is too high for speculation it still would be nice to
know it's there if it's really needed.

A stronger kase, if done right would eliminate the

also a stronger kase wood retard the screen LINEs that

Maybe a cheaper solution could be to epoxy a thin brass corner piece to
cover/reinforce the crack, perhaps with a Thaddeus logo.

This would be cheap, functional and perhaps stylish (if done right) and would
give Thaddeus greater visibility/identity.  Make it the same color as the HP
logo plate (and same font if you add a Thaddeus logo).

As was pointed out previously, shrinkage is a significant factor. Casting
first in wax, then in metal probably won't work, because of the shrinkage of
the castings.

Be this as it may, why don't we let Hal talk to experts and decide what he
can do in terms of available materials and costs.

Hal should be commended for going to the trouble of securing the mold (as
well as all of the other things he has done to keep the LX's going).

The 80186/188 support all 286 commands not related to
protected mode.

New over the 8086 set are:
BOUND  ENTER  INS  LEAVE  OUTS  POPA  PUSHA

The 186/188/286 extend the functionality of:
IMUL  PUSH  RCL  RCR  ROL  ROR  SAL  SAR  SHL  SHR

Instruction timing is changed as well, with some 80186
instructions executing faster than on an 8086.  So a
stock 200LX should perform significantly better than
a PC/XT.

idea of having a 486-based, AA-powered DOS machine in an LX case sounds
interesting, but the information on their Web site is getting old.

Does anyone have any current information?

With the case die in-hand, how far away are we from a "Thaddeus-LX" w/ the
486-ish processor, color touch-screen, USB support and other goodies, all w/
our favorite form factor and keyboard?

The mod I'm thinking of would eliminate a stress concentration and increase
hinge strength at least threefold. But your point, if I understand it
correctly, is well taken. It wouldn't hurt to use a stronger material as
well, provided it doesn't introduce a new problem, like brittleness, and
provided it doesn't necessitate a significant change to the tooling.

Yes, it would make a classic case study (no pun intended) for an industrial
design class.

If the HPLX mold is in thaddeus possession what is the poss of getting
spares at reasonable prices I wonder?

The battery cover should be no more than a Dollar US.   IR cover same...

Or..As a marketing ploy..

How bout X dollars a year for 100% servicing/insurance.  I'd pay it..

IE pay $X/year and after 90 days have 100% cover for..broken screen/ lost
bits VIP pricing on upgrades etc. The 90 days is to stop "opportunistic"
joining..

Any comments?

There are a number of programs/hardware that use interrupts 7Eh or 7Fh
which could be conflicting.

Some examples are IBM 3270 emulators, the G8BPQ AX25 Networking
package, IBM 8514/A Adapter Interface, TIGA Communications Driver,
Multilink, Multiware, SBS WinRun, Canon IXHND2 Scanner Interface, DJGPP
GO32.EXE DOS extender, yterm, Telebit, Clustershare, Halo88 graphics, etc.

If you can figure out what program is using the interrupts, run the
connectivity pack before, the offending program is loaded. It might take
trial and error to find which one it is if the above don't sound familiar.

There is a company in the UK which seems to be able to make a profit making =

Well, as mentioned, when viewing the images on the camera I can find =

I have saved the images in the same sizes the camera supports.

This information is the root of the problem. The 950 won't display a
picture that doesn't have the EXIF header in the jpg. It probably has to
be named DSCN...jpg also. Editors generally remove the EXIF info. I've
read of some programs which retain or can be used to put the EXIF header
in, like Camedia software from Olympus, Uleads Photoimpact, and JPEG
Wizard from Pegasus (none of which have I used).

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

I used to run ACCIS4, PE, WWW/LX and Post/LX under HDM, which
is a gui for DOS, with SYSMGR terminated. It worked very well,
though it gets annoying when I had to toggle between SYSMGR
and HDM.

Now than I have upgraded the palmtop to 32MB, I have a lot of
disk space and I want to try out MAXDOS. I had no problem
setting it up, and now the programs are all running smoothly,
but I have a feeling that it could be better.

Originally, I thought I can run the programs under SYSMGR, and
use MAXDOS only when I have to go online. But now I have to
run all 4 programs under MAXDOS because when I tried to start
any of the programs under SYSMGR, I got a message "Can not run
program XXX", which I interpret to mean that there is not
enough memory. But when I checked the <MORE> screen, it say
"410K free /512K total". There seems to be a lot of memory.

I have used HDM for so long, I have forgotten if PE and ACCIS4
runs under SYSMGR before. It seems strange that they can not,
especially PE since it is such a small program.

I have set up MAXDOS strictly according to the intructions
given, ie, include the lines "maxdos -l -wf:\tmp", where f:\tmp
is the swap directory, before any TSR's, which are just ABCTSR
and BATTLOG, and "maxdos -r" after the line "200".

Now, when the programs are called under MAXDOS, I do not see
the battery voltage on the F1 label anymore. I think it is
because ABCTSR has been swapped out. And I suspect BATTLOG is
too, so that the log display is probably no longer accurate.

Have I missed something? What I should like to know is how
others set up MAXDOS and whether they have any or all of the
programs working under SYSMGR.

Thanks for any info.

Hi,

Turbo C (or somebody else) had a clock TSR sample program.  I still have
its
source code (and TC 1.0)  I have a modified version which displays local
and
UTC time in the upper right corner and then shell to DOS (command.com).
You can do anything thing (almost) then exit to unload.  I'l be glad to
send
the source and exe to you.

Best Regards,

Subject:        TSR Clock and MARK and RELEASE

Howdy!

I could do with a time display on the HP while running my weatherfax
software. I seem to remember from my DOS days that there was a small TSR
which would display the time in one (user defineable?) corner of the
screen. Any ideas?

Another nice little pair of utilities I remember were MARK.COM and
RELEASE.COM. I ran MARK.COM before loading a TSR and RELEASE.COM to get rid
of it again. I also remember using WARM.COM and COLD.COM. I had different
AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files for different environments, and used
batch files to copy the correct files to the root and then automatically
reboot the computer. Oh, and there was FAKEY.COM. When run in a batch file,
the command "FAKEY hello" would send the keystrokes "hello" to the next
program in the batchfile. Of course some programs would flush the buffer so
FAKEY wouldn't work... Now that I have a 200LX, I sure wish I'd taken
better care of all those old DOS tweaks...

PS. As I use my Ericsson MC218 and GSM phone for all my Internet access,
I'd be REALLY grateful for direct URLs to the TSR clock if at all possible.
Searching the net can be rather tedious at 9600 baud... There have been
numerous occasions when I've wanted a software upgrade for the MC218 and
have spent 10 - 15 minutes wading through all the nice graphics on the
site, and then 15 seconds downloading the actual file. I wish they'd
understand that an established user looking for the latest upgrade has
already been convinced their software is the best thing since sliced bread
and doesn't need to read all the hype!

Gripe mode off...

:o)

The 80186/188 support all 286 commands not related to
protected mode.

New over the 8086 set are:
BOUND  ENTER  INS  LEAVE  OUTS  POPA  PUSHA

The 186/188/286 extend the functionality of:
IMUL  PUSH  RCL  RCR  ROL  ROR  SAL  SAR  SHL  SHR

Instruction timing is changed as well, with some 80186
instructions executing faster than on an 8086.  So a
stock 200LX should perform significantly better than
a PC/XT.

What is great improvement.  READ can be considered as Horizontal Reader.

It is nice to know that READ can be started in full screen mode by twigging
the READ.CFG file.

In READ.CFG, the stated alternative font is BOLD.HFN - where can this be
found?  I cheated by copying and renaming one of the HV (HTML Viewer) fonts
to BOLD.HFN

As was pointed out previously, shrinkage is a significant factor. Casting
first in wax, then in metal probably won't work, because of the shrinkage of
the castings.

Be this as it may, why don't we let Hal talk to experts and decide what he
can do in terms of available materials and costs.

Hal should be commended for going to the trouble of securing the mold (as
well as all of the other things he has done to keep the LX's going).

Or, as I proposed last year, you could cast wax cases and then
cast brass or bronze cases using the lost wax process.

CS support told me to enter "CSI" (without quotes) here - I never tried it,
because I set up the CSI-Script of WWW/LX and it worked without

The suggestion that Hal might be able to get more than the case mold from HP
brings up the question of what is the current status of the Morphy 1? The
idea of having a 486-based, AA-powered DOS machine in an LX case sounds
interesting, but the information on their Web site is getting old.

Does anyone have any current information?

Maybe a cheaper solution could be to epoxy a thin brass corner piece to
cover/reinforce the crack, perhaps with a Thaddeus logo.

This would be cheap, functional and perhaps stylish (if done right) and would
give Thaddeus greater visibility/identity.  Make it the same color as the HP
logo plate (and same font if you add a Thaddeus logo).

As I recall, my sequence at this prompt always used <Ctrl>-X <Ctrl>-C (or
maybe it was <Ctrl>-X <Ctrl>R> before hitting <Enter>.  The precise reason
escapes me at the moment, but it was probably to indicate that my terminal
supported X-on/X-off and that my display was ANSI or that the delete key
should be treated as a destructive backspace.  Something like that.  The
original documentation is probably still somewhere at my house.  I'll have
to look it up again.

Thanks for the suggestion.   The only thing is that LXBATCH batch files =

About all you can really say is the 80186 is faster.  There's no
good way to judge how much faster.  Even comparing this with an XT
using Norton SI, the result would change significantly if they chose
a different opcode mix.  They gave a reason for the mix they chose
and I can't remember what it was.  But other mixes could have been
chosen and good reasons given for them, too, but with different
results.

Also the IBM XT runs at 4.77 mHz and the LX runs at 7.? mHz.  Norton
SI uses a raw speed test and is affected by clock speed.

The opcodes and pre-fetch were optimized on the 80186 beyond what
they were on the 8088.  In fact the pre-fetch on the 8088 was really
designed for the 8086 and isnt very efficient on the 8088, according
to Michael Abrash.  Also the 80186 has a 16 bit bus and the 8088 has
an 8 bit bus.

The 80186 is faster at the same clock speed but how much faster
depends on the application.

At a certain point Norton changed their SI test to include 386
opcodes if they were present.  They also changed the mix of opcodes
in other ways.  At that point the ability to compare with past CPU's
was essentially lost, but they said it was more important to be able
to compare 386's and 486's, etc.

I can't remember the version number of Norton at the time but I'm
pretty sure that's what you're seeing here.

Verson 4 of TSE Jr. (formerly quedit) can be configured to do this.
It's available at www.semware.com.

This is shareware with nag screens but it's well worth registering.
It's the best editor there is.  Others who disagree with this
statement are showing their prejudice.

Hello!

When I'm really programming, my favorite editor for more than
20 years is the vim - free for many platforms.

Now thinking about the marking problem: It seems that in pe and edit
the scan-asci-combination for shi+cursor(s) isn't produced; against
we can mark in memo and the most other 200-apps. Perhaps we can -
for using the mentioned edit - 'patch' temporarily with exkey...

Hello!

For cursors the shift isn't stored in the scan-asci-pair; so the
editors have to check the key-status-byte. But why doesn't this
work on the lx?

Another: Some times ago I heard from some tool, which enables using
the memo on lx-200 from DOS. Knows somebody what it is and where
    =======================
it is to get?

Great idea, specially at $125 a pop (Thadeus' minimum labor charge). :-b

You have the molds of the top and the bottom?

Then i would like to have a transparant iMac colored palmtop, then i can
finaly show the internals of my palmtop  ;)

Meantime, I'm busy to design and build a replacement CPU board using a 486
AMD CPU, which will fit nicely in a new case.

Using a new casing it will really be new machine (only the keyboard,
display-panel and cables are used).

That comment is particularly true today - a cliffhanger Presidential

MIME-Version: 1.0

Thanks to EVERYONE who responded to me publicly and privately. What follows
is a response to some of the issues and points raised and an explanation of
where we are at.

1. I am still waiting for HP's response. I am hoping they decide to help us
out getting the part manufactured in Asia.

2. I agree that it is to HP's credit that HP is willing to send us the mold.
I've always found that HP people want to do the right thing. However, HP is
a BIG company and there are LOTS of beaurocratic constraints. It helps that
we have a 15 year relationship with HP. There is also a bit of HP
self-interest in sending us the mold that I won't go into.

3. I appreciate the credit given to me publicly here, and it is true it is a
labor of love working with the HP 200LX and the exceptional people who are
our customers and have remained loyal to this platform.  However, as I have
always made clear, I am running a business. I have responsibility to my
employees and our stockholders (my wife and I<g>) As long as we make a
reasonable profit, we will continue supporting HP 200LX users. The good news
is that my guess is that we should be profitable at least until  2002 and
probably longer.

Furthermore, if credit is properly given, Mack, his tech, Avi, Andreas, Al
Kind, Ed Keefe, Stefan, Mike K, many others, those active and supportive on
this list, etc, etc deserve much of the credit for keeping the HP 200LX
alive. We (me) just happens to be the most visible. Fortunately, most
people's positive experience dealing with Thaddeus Computing is based on
that fact that our company is small and made up of sincere, hard-working
people at every level.

4. If we do receive the mold, it is unlikely we will try to improve on
things. It is purely a business decision. We can sell more palmtops and make
more repairs if we can get those cases made at a reasonable price. I am open
to ideas, but I would have to see clearly that additional investment in an
improved design would make good business sense. It is EXTREMELY unlikely
that HP would be interested in give us the molds for the entire case.

5. We created the $125 repair fee to keep things simple. Expensive repairs
(keyboards and motherboards) are normally priced the same as cracked cases.
What we do is cannibalize units and if we're luck we can use lots of parts
from one palmtop and it all evens out.  In fact since we just use
cannibalized parts, the original cost (screen or case) isn't as important to
us as if we have to use a lot of one part such as the case, lowering the
number of palmtops for resale. This is a long way of saying, it is possible,
I'll think about it, but we probably will not sell cases individually for
you do-it-your-selfers. Repairs are an important and profitable part of our
business that allow us to continue, while at the same time it normally
provides customers with an excellent value.

6. A number of you of suggested companies to do the manufacturing. Thank
you. Also, some of you have requested information that I just don't have an
answer. I may have to check with HP. I know nothing of the process involved
in making the cases. What I have learned is that the whole thing isn't as
easy as I had hoped -- "here's the mold, make me cases, how much will it
cost? when can I get them?"

7.  Thanks again for your many public and private responses. This truly is a
great list! (And Jeff, I like you no matter what anybody says about you<g>).

I haven't had a chance to put Read/LX on my palmtop but when I ran it on my
PC, the screen kinda dissolved at the end of the text file.  Granted I was
using int5f at the time - and that may have had an unpredictable effect.
Still, it looks great to me and I can't wait to put it to use.

9-pin-to-9-pin gender changer/null modem.

Used wwwsetup to set up a connection using Com1, 19200 baud, and I just
used the basic modem init string ATX2.  Put in your normal ISP
access phone number.

With the phone showing DIGITAL service (the StarTac is a tri mode phone
which drops to analog if the digital signal is not strong enough), just
type www as usual from the command prompt on the HP200.

The StarTac acts just like an external modem ont he serial port of the
HP200LX.

I connected the first time I tried.  Ran post.exe just as if using an
internal (PCMCIA).  Logged off as usual.

SIMPLE, STRAIGHT FORWARD, AND AMAZING!

Thanks to all for sharing your experiences so that I would know what to
buy and how to make it work.

What I advised earlier is probably true of Tymnet connections to CompuServe.
I don't know if that holds for direct dialups to their own network.

The material attached below is from mid-year 1992 and may not reflect
current conditions entirely.

Alan

The recommended settings for your terminal and modem are 8 bit, no parity,
1 stop bit.  If your call gets no response from the network (see below) and
you have checked that all your settings are correct, try a setting of 7 bit,
space or mark parity, 1 stop bit.
(I always found it to work best with 7 bit, space parity, 1 stop bit)

Set your equipment up to operate at the same communications rate as the
network (300, 1200, 2400 or 9600 baud).

Dial Tymnet with your modem

Using your favorite software to communicate with your modem, instruct the
modem to dial the TYMNET local phone number you obtained above.  You should
soon get a CONNECT message from your modem.

Type your Terminal Identifier

During 300 or 1200 baud communications you may see garbled characters or the
following prompt displayed on your terminal.  At 2400 or 9600, you may or
may not see this message; you may just have a blank screen beyond the
CONNECT message:

              please type your terminal identifier:

If you don't see the prompt and wish to, you may press <RETURN> after three
seconds, and the above prompt (or a garbled version) should display.

Your terminal identifier is a single letter.  You do not need to press
<RETURN> after entering it.

- If your setup is 8 bit, no parity, 1 stop bit use the terminal identifier
"o".
(Same is used for 7 bit, space parity, 1 stop bit)

- If your setup is 7 bits, even or no parity, 1 stop bit, use the terminal
identifier "a".

If you have typed your terminal identifier and the "Please log in" prompt is
garbled and cannot be read, you must reconfigure your equipment.  Return to
step 1 and do the following:

.  If you originally configured your equipment with no parity, try changing
your parity setting to mark parity.

.  Make sure that your equipment is operating at the same bps rate as the
network node and port.

Type your login string, preceded by any needed TYMNET control information

A port number and prompt should now display (the digits below are just
examples).  You may wish to write down the port number in case you have
TYMNET trouble.  TYMNET Customer Service (see "If You Have Trouble," below)
will want to know it.

-4117:01-003-

please log in:

The simplest case is to type

CIS

and press <RETURN>.

Before you type CIS, you may wish to type one or more of the following
control characters, which instruct TYMNET to do some special things with
your session:

Control-X Transmit data flow control.  Enables the network to halt and
restart the flow of data transmitted from your equipment.  Insert Control-X
when sending data files. Do not use when transmitting binary files.

Control-R Receive data flow control.  Enables your equipment to halt and
restart the flow of data received from the network.  Insert Control-R when
receiving data files.  Do not use when receiving binary files.

Control-I Interactive data session request.  Results in the shortest circuit
path to your destination equipment.  Enables faster response time for a low
characters-per-second interactive data session.

Do not use Control-I for a file transfer data session.  It may significantly
lower throughput.  Do no use Control-I with Control-V.

Control-V Volume bandwidth request.  Increases bandwidth in the circuit to
you destination and enable faster file transfers. Use of Control-V will
increase file transfer speed, but may decrease interactive response.

Do not use Control-V during an interactive data session.  It may
significantly reduce throughput speed.

Control-H Half-duplex request.  Set the port to which you are connected to
half-duplex.  The use of half-duplex prevents double images on your terminal
display.  The default is full-duplex.

Control-P Even parity request.  Sets the port to which you are connect to
even parity.  Enables even parity for data incoming to your equipment that
requires even parity.  The default is mark parity.

Control-W Wipe login string.  Allows you to retype a segment of the login
string.  You cannot use Control-W to edit your password.  Your cursor does
not move when you use Control-W.

I have two HP200LX's one I have had since 1994 (2Mb) and the other
(4Mb) since 1997.  Neither show signs of stress fractures near the
hinge area; Questions for those who have stress fractures:  How
old were the units before they started to show signs of damage?
Are there tips that might help ensure that the problem can be
delayed or if not avoided altogether?
Cheers
Tony.

Hi All,

Can someone give me some pointer, I've been having some trouble with the
syncronisation part of OL2LX with outlook 2000.  The Transfer in either
direction works fine, but the syncronise gets things all messed up, and sees
differences where there arent any.  I have version 2.15, does anyone know
anything about this?

Hi All,

Can't seem to see the original post; so I've gotta send this to the list.

Type "CIS" and hit "Enter" ... then follow the prompts.

This should work fine for some text-based access; but there's not much left
that you can "see" and use. I've "reverted" to a CompuServe "Classic"
account ( Nnnnn.nnnn@compuserve.com address ), but still have my email set
up for the POP3 access. I was able to log on w/ the CIS, my user id (the
numbers only, w/ a *comma,* not a period) and my password.

I looked into my old mail area and got a "warning." If I type "go mail" from
a terminal session, it basically tells me I won't be able to get to my mail
anymore. I knew this, when I went to the POP3.  BUT, it does say I can
"SEND" somehow, from a terminal window. I haven't tried it, but I imagine
it's with the old and cranky CIS line editor. It was a pain in the neck to
edit, you had to list all your lines and then ask to edit specific lines, by
line number, etc. I'm glad for POP3 and other forms of access!! If nothing
else, this could be an "emergency" send-only area for compuserve members who
accidentally dump whichever LX or DOS -based email software they're using.

HTH,

--tim

PS. I don't EVEN know what would happen, if you've "totally" switched over
to CIS 2000 ( xxxxxx@cs.com address )...... "Terminal" access may give even
less. And, I imagine it's all soon to die anyway, in favor of using their,
proprietary software to access (AOL bought CIS; now it's anyone's guess).
FLUFF ON: Can anyone say Monopoly!?!?!?! AOL (esp. w/ it's pending
Time-Warner deal) beats Microsoft on monopolizing any day. The DOJ missed
its mark ... Heck, ever notice how loading AOL's software even modifies
Internet Explorer (without giving you a choice!)??  All IMOHO /fluff off. I
hope some of CompuServe's original "brain trust" and wealth of knowledge
survives, I found a LOT of tech-help there in the 80's and beyond.

I would like to tell you something about the hinge crack:

abt. one year ago I bought a used palmtop as a spare unit.
My original one was quite new because of a warranty exchange.
But due to a less clicking keyboard (better for use in the university
;-) ) I decided to use the "new" (bought) unit as my main unit and put
the better one aside as a spare one.
When I bought this second unit, I realized that it showed the hair crack
at the right hinge. Only hardly seeable, but it was there.
Until now (1 year of heavy use) it didn't get worse. Still the little
hair crack, but nothing more.
I don't care in any way about this crack (I even tightened the hinge a
little bit with isopropyl alcohol). And I think this palmtop case will
survive a long time to come.

So not every hinge crack has to be a death sentence for a palmtop.

Hi friends,

I have a little problem using WWW/LX with Post/LX, HV and LXPIC (WWW/LX
v2):

I use the following setup:

WWW/LX starts withhout going online and invoking Post/LX, so that I can
press F5 in Post/LX to go online.
When online, I can press Menu-x-x-h to invoke HV from the Post/LX's
externals menu to browse the web. So far everything's fine.

But I realized a problem when trying to use LXMapBlast, for example:

When there is an image that I want to view, I d/l it and HV asks me
"view" or "save as". I choose "view" and HV says "not enough memory to
run viewer" or similar.

I tried to enlarge the SC Work Area in which all this runs, I tried to
leave TSRs out of the setup, I tried to use maxdos, which unfortunately
doesn"t work because it prevents HV from using the TCP/IP connection..

Does anyone of you have a clue?

Thanks
daniel

that's not true. Shift-cursor keys result in a different
scancode than simple cursor keystrokes. Everything works
like on desktops. Use LXPRO or SCANCODE from my homepage
to find out the scancodes for any key or keycombination.

Text selection in an editor with shift-cursor keys must be
programmed in the editor in order to work. This is no DOS or
BIOS feature, available for every application.

You need to install Maxdos for those purposes.

There is no low-power Pentium available.
My design will be on avarage ten times the speed of an original 200LX.
And you can finaly run BIG programs in memory, there is no DOS program which
will not run on a 486DX.

It will be still a DOS machine (MCGA now) so don't think about running

LXPIC reports S0_211 for a sample Nikon Coolpix 950 picture. I will now =

I have a 1994 unit that just cracked about 1 year ago, it now has a wide gap
but is still hanging in there. I was told my hinge was too tight and would
crack the first time Bob N opened my machine and he was right, it seems the
best preventive thing to do is to make sure the hinge is not too tight

I finally got Read installed, so just to comment on what I wrote before - I
think that program doesn't like paging back up at the end of file.  I get a
message button telling me it's at the end of the file and each time I page
up I get it again.  So I have resorted to doing Jump to line 0 to
reposition the file.  Other than that, I love it.  I have lots of fonts and
it's great.

Are you serious?

I thought the reason the Japanese guys turned to the Morphy One had to do
with not being able to simply slip a 486 chip into the 200LX.

You have captured our attention Thomas, please keep us informed on your

I just received the following as part of a notification from Pay Pal:

"
PayPal is revising its Buyer Protection Policy to focus on promoting
security for online auctions.  Starting Nov. 10, purchases made on
eBay (TM) from a Verified seller using PayPal that qualify for
eBay's insurance policy may also qualify for additional compensation
from PayPal.

Fraud claims from all other purchases from Verified sellers will be
investigated, and in cases of fraud any recovered funds will be
returned to the buyer.  However, recovery is not guaranteed.
"

Note that "recovery is not guaranteed", meaning don't hold your breath that
you will see any recovery.

I have read on the web that _both_ buyers and sellers have been scammed
using Pay Pal. The biggest problem is that Pay Pal does _very little_ to
verify that the person opening the account is who they say they are. Also,
as was pointed out in another post, normal credit card fraud rules do not
apply to Pay Pal.

I still use Pay Pal, though. However, I have not raised my "credit limit"
above the original low one, as I do not plan on using it for large
purchases, only small ones in the $5-$50 range.

When I bought this second unit, I realized that it showed the hair crack

Until now (1 year of heavy use) it didn't get worse. Still the little

I don't care in any way about this crack (I even tightened the hinge a
little bit with isopropyl alcohol). And I think this palmtop case will
survive a long time to come.

So not every hinge crack has to be a death sentence for a palmtop.

I second Daniel's remarks ... my case has been cracked for four years but is
still going strong after some epoxy and some good advice from list member Robert
Hocking ages ago.  Basically, he extended the hinge adjustment with a
combination of alcohol (to tighten) and oil (to loosen).

I'll repeat that posting here, as I've used it to adjust all three of my LX's
(and my wife's) to the exact tension I need (loose, but just tight enough for
the screen to hold its position at an angle).  It also has an excellent
description of the hinge cap assembly and removal.

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.

Hello!

I had(!) used your lxpro and got the mentioned results. Today
I booted my lx200 in 'raw mode' and found the byte-pairs, as

is working under DOS-edit and 200-memo; but edit doesn't
show any marking, and ctr-c|v are ignored.

PayPal may not be as secure as using a credit card directly, but it is still
better than mailing off a check or money order that the seller can claim never
arrived (true or not).  Even if the check is signed by the payee when cashed, it
is necessary to prove that the person who signed it is the person who you sent
it to.  If they deny it, proving fraud and prosecuting across state lines will
be difficult, and if the amount is small the authorities will be reluctant to
pursue the case.  At least with PayPal there is some verification that the
payment went to the seller.  With snail mail payments, the time delay can make
recovery harder.  By the time it is sorted out, it may be difficult to use
Ebay's processes and too late to even leave feedback.

Been there, done that, I now prefer PayPal.

I'm not sure of the context you're asking about but checking the
key-status-byte passed by int 16h does work fine on the LX.  Int 16h
offers functions 2h and 12h for this.  Function 2h is for the XT
keyboard and 12h is for the AT keyboard.

Both functions work well on the LX but 12h should be used because of
the odd arrangement of keys on the LX.

edit.com
If I press shft-down it marks the line and if I press shft-right it
marks from present position to the right.

Now text is marked, if I press Ctrl-C, <end>, Ctrl-V, the marked text
is inserted at cursor position.

Forget about it, if I misunderstood your message.

Kind regards

Hello!

Cause I'm using vim, I'm not using for years the MS edit.com. But
for marking and printing reasons I use it in school as a second
editor for my pupils, cause tp 5.5 lack both features.

Therefore I tried it on lx without success, as posted. One reason
I like edit on lx-200 is the speed of loading in comparison to
having activated memo through a kestroke series. But a disadvantage
of edit, even if marking and copying were Ok, is that then the
one and only DOS-process is occupied.

Therefore we can end this thread, if you agree.

                Klaus.

Hello!

I can't believe it, really on lx-200? I have tested two modes, the
absolute raw-boot-mode and my normal with some tsrs.
My edit.com is a german(!?) version 2.0.026 1995.

<<
I don't believe the ATA flash will work in the 95LX.

Last time I posted on this subject, I had not yet received the flash card I
had ordered from Scott. Well, I have it now, and it doesn't work in my
HP95LX. The card itself is OK, as I can use it in a pentium-based Toshiba
laptop. When I try to use it in the 95LX, however, either the unit will not
turn on (if I put the card in when it is off) or it will immediately blank
the screen except for one horizontal line across the screen (if I insert the
card when the unit is on). In this latter case, the screen reappears as soon
as I remove the flash card.

I was able to get copies of two SanDisk flash card drivers for the HP95LX
(HP95SDP.SYS and SDPDRV.SYS, "SUNDISK SDP PCMCIA-ATA Device Driver",
Versions 1.00 and 1.1, vintage 1992), but they do not make any difference:
the screen still blanks when I have the flash card inserted. I have tried
booting with the card out and the card inserted, both without luck.

The card I have is branded for "International Game Technology". I have gone
to their web site, but most of their technical information is restricted
access. The card has "SM9FLATA20TIGT" on it, so I believe it is an ATA card,
but I do not know who manufactured it.

So...

Is anyone using one of these cards in their HP95LX (Scott says that there
are)? If so, what drivers are you using. Also, is the blanking of the screen
on my 95LX just a problem with my unit, or have other users experienced it
when trying to use an ATA flash card?

Thanks in advance for any input.

I think that was a short-coming of the early versions of 123 .... being unable
to have 2 spreadsheets opened at the same time.

One ugly solution is to install desktop version of 123 and have Maxdos swap the
123 sessions, but unfortunately the swap is limited since you have to exit the
Maxdos session in order to get back to the first 123 session (ie you can't
toggle between them).

There may be later desktop versions of 123 that still work on the LX that
support multiple sheets.  Or another spreadsheet program altogether, tho they
won't look nor feel like 123 ( for which we can thank Mitch Kapor ).

From 1979 until the early 1990s my company was extensively involved in
supplying plants/machinery/equipment to the P.R. China plastics industry (to
where even a number of Japanese, Taiwanese and Hong Kong injection molders
have moved their operations). We worked mainly with Italian, Swiss and
German machinery factories on highly sophisticated plastics processing
plants. If you want to use an Asian molder, probably South China is now one
of the world's leading volume producers and they have excellent equipment.
The problems are consistent resin quality and finished product quality.
Reliable delivery is possible, even with outstanding quality, but
preformulated resins should be specified and imported. We are not talking
about a large quantity here. A stronger polymer alloy can be used,
especially if aesthetics and surface finish are not critical.

Hear! Hear! Perfectly fair and understood. But smaller product runs are
probably more easily run in the USA at not much greater cost at the end of
the day. Probably you can negotiate a non-rushed special time available
price. Molded parts can be bulky in shipping.

This is candid and makes perfect business sense. The mold probably could be
readily modified in the hinge area (if drawings or CAD/CAM files were
available), but honestly, I think the HPLX community would be very satisfied
just to be able to get cost effective replacements. Modifications are not
reversible. However, if the mold cavities were 2/4/6/8 up at a time, then
one of the cavities could be modified for trials. The drawback would be that
cavity would always be producing an off-spec case so my inclination (from
Hal's perspective and not as J.Q. Enduser) would be to leave all alone.

Combining points from other posts here, it is unlikely other materials can
be easily substituted for plastics. Glass fiber reinforced engineered
compounds (Nylon, ABS, or PP type compounds) could be used with enhanced
properties, possibly with some less attractive surface finish. Transparent
iMac type resins could also be used but only with significant sacrifice in
the physical/mechanical properties of the case--such as impact/crack/scratch
resistance. However, a clear or tinted case could be appealing to a number
of users but such a run would have to be pre-sold from a business
standpoint.

If the entire mold set is available, that raises more interesting
possibilities. As an enduser, I'd like to be able to replace the front
hinge. More importantly, and possibly not too far out of line with Hal's
backlighting project, what I'd really like to see is a slightly larger
backlit screen solution within the existing case. This means maintaining the
mold for the screen bezel, but trimming it back (by CNC) so that only a 2-3
mm border exists. Pop in a larger backlit screen and charge what the market
will bear. That kit will make money.

Finally, continuing a theme I raised maybe a year ago, would HP transfer the
entire project to a responsible party to re-engineer, update CPU power, all
under license and a different brand? There are probably enough diehards to
be linked/networked who would do it just for a good supply of the finished
product. Maybe TransMeta can provide a compatible low power chipset and DOS
8-"X" could be used to overcome the 640k limitation? Other ideas?

Just thinkin' out loud.

Not necessarily....I have had checks forged and the bank replaced the funds
If that happens with paypal you may not have any recourse.  Remember pay pal
does not issue a credit card...it is only a middle man between the seller
and the credit card company.  All of the rules governing credit card
transactions apply to credit card issueers,  Since paypal issues no credit
cards it is bound by none of these rules.

Tried to do the same thing...was never successful.  You can however link one
spreadsheet cell with another cell in a second spreadsheet.

Why would you want to?  Wouldn't the better solution be to link one
spreadsheet cell with the cell on another spreadsheet?  Another "solution"
would be to save you spreadsheets and use the system macros to switch from
one spreadsheet to another.

Yes I see where Paypal is not secure. But I plan to use it to pay
people I know or "know" through this list or similar. Then I should be
almost okey. I know I can not screw anyone here because I would like to

I also seemed to constantly encounter the "End of text reached" message
when I first used READ/LX with only one file loaded, but the problem
appears to be solved when I added more text files using the PICK.EXE (d/l
from SUPER) mentioned in READ.DOC

Actually, instead of using PICK to add one file at a time, it is possible
to just edit the READ.CFG and use copy-and-paste-then-amend to add more
text file names to the Pick list.

When end of file is reached, I could just clear the dialog box and use the
Up-arrow key to move back a page at a time.  It is also possible to use
Fn-Home to move to the beginning of the file.

How many font files did you add to the READ.CFG file ?  Any good ones (with
large fonts) to share ?

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

Problem:  (well Ok, a minor problem)
When you open a DB file in the builtin DB manager the file's
timestamp gets updated; even when you didn't make any changes.

What I want is a way to make a DB file readonly to preserve its file
timestamp and also to protect its data from accidental modofication.

Obviously I don't want to do this for some DBs like the appointment and
phone books.  I do want to protect DBs that I download from places like
SUPER.  Their timestamp lets me know how old the file and its data is
and that is useful to know when you're wondering if you should look for
an update or newer version.

I've come up with a solution by using a BAT file to copy the DB file to
a temp directory and then calling SOPEN.EXE to view the copy.  While the
copy gets updated the original is left alone.  This works but it is
slower to start due the copy; also you need enough disk space for the
copy (a potential problem for large DBs).

Is there a better solution that isn't quite such a (slow) kluge?

Cheers... Russ

I'd go for the kit, as the cost of assembling all the bit is very likely to
exceed the retail price of all. That assumes you have a need/interest/desire
to obtain most (if not all) the bits included in the purchase...

Believe the idea was how to prevent kracks
Then again dropping it won't guarantee a krack
Then again you may not have dropped it on a hinge.

If at furst ya don succeed, try try again, and again.

Hi,

I have a serious problem! :-( I have to use DHCP.EXE and get an IP
address before I download my office mail using a ethernet card and
POST/LX. But I get an 'out of environment space' message and
therefore I have tried to increase it with:
'shell=3Dd:\dos\command.com /e:2048 /p' in config.sys and I have also
configured 2048 as the environment space override in Software Carousel.
But it doesn't help!??? That reminds me that I have never been able to
increase the DOS environment space on 200LX- so maybe it's not
possible- or am I doing something wrong???

Please advice what to do. To clean up my "path and set stuff" in
autoexec.bat is not a good idea since I need it (but I tried and then
it works fine).

Jorgen

Maybe you just don't see the markings due to a bad color setting in
edit.com (if it's possible to adjust the colors - I doon't know...)?

Since you said urgent, here's an off the top of my head reply. Are you
shelling to dos for this? If so, I seem to recall that you get a copy of
the environment space when shelling, but only of the actual environment in
use. So if your only using say 700bytes out of the 2048, when you shell,
that's all you get, not 2048. I had a problem with this years ago with
some setup. My solution was in autoexec.bat have a line setting a variable
to a long string, example

set junk=blahblahblahblahblahblahblakjlkjhsdfkhsdfhsdfkhfashdffhjdfjdfjhdh

etc. up to the line length limit. This increased the amount of
environment used, and thus, how much was passed to the copy in the new
shell. Then in the command shell I cleared it,

set junk=

thereby freeing up all that space in the copy of the environment.

Anyway, I think that's what I recall. It was about 12-13 years ago.

Hope this helps,
Mike Kopplin

Hi all,

In the past you may have requested a map from LX-MapBlast for some address
and gotten nothing, a blank map, or a gif that said the address was
ambiguous, or something similar. Now, if the address is ambiguous, you
should see a second page allowing you a selection of the best matches, or
if the address is just too bad for mapblast to figure out, you should get
an error message.

For example, I tested it by asking for a map of Berlin, USA and I get a
selection of cities in 11 states. It also works with ambiguous street
addresses, but I have not tested this much.

I had to change a lot of things, so hopefully this won't introduce other
problems.

That's right, you cannot simply replace the chip. It is a complete new PCB
with memory, invertor, PCCARD interface, and 16550 compatible serial port.
It just fits in the casing of a 200LX and makes use of the old screen and
keyboard.

hobchi wrote, wrt to hinge crack.

>>NEVER drop it

I've owned and used several Palmtops over the past 10 years and have opened
and closed them, ten to twelve times a day, at least. I've yet to see a
hinge stress fracture. What am I doing wrong/right?

The only thing I can think of, that _may_ be different, is that I'm left
handed. I typically hold the Ptop in my left hand and open it with my right
hand. Would that make any difference?

The other variables in the mix would be the tightness or looseness of the
right hinge and how one handles the Ptop. (carefully to roughly)

Is this worth investigating?

You seem to become a power user. Did you ever consider to get a

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

Hi friends,

is it possible to setup the combination of WWW//LX and Post/LX this
way, that

1. I start www -d !post.exe so that I press F5 to connect from out of
Post/LX

2. when the connection is established and all mail is down-/uploaded, I
can leave Post/LX WITHOUT WWW/LX to disconnect so that I can launch HV
with the same connection and without a redial.

Background (if you didn't read my other postings from the last few
days):
Due to memory issues there seems to be no way to launch HV from within
Post/LX (under a DOS shell or from the externals menu) with the ability
to use LXPIC as GIF viewer, so I have to quit Post/LX first and then
launch HV.

TNX

Why would you want to?  Wouldn't the better solution be to link one
spreadsheet cell with the cell on another spreadsheet?  Another "solution"
would be to save you spreadsheets and use the system macros to switch from
one spreadsheet to another.

Sometimes you just want to look at two things at once (no, not your wife and the
gal that just walked past her).

Like working on an expense report and wanting to see what the numbers were like
on a previous one.  Spreadsheet linking and system macros are circumventions
that are sometimes more painful than the problem.  Same with running a 2nd copy
of 123.

I use Framework, which lets me work with multiple sheets, but it's not
everybody's cup of tea either.

That depends on what you call low power.  Some Pentiums
are sold as low power for laptops.  And if a static
Pentium is run at a lower clock rate, its power should
drop.  But the ones I have heard about probably wouldn't
fit anyway.

Okay, high resolution graphics, a math coprocessor, and a
486 can run OS/2, the ultimate DOS program swapper.  The
dream palmtop come true if you can maintain the instant on.

Best of luck!

Thanks Longden, Robert, good advice.

Hmm...  Should/Does Thaddeus adjust the hinge tension on
its repaired units?  BTW I loosened the hinge on mine.
Unfortunately after the crack started.  I would encourage
owners with stiff palmtops to seriously consider adjusting
their hinges.

Doubtless they're worth more than I'd pay.

I'm sure you've looked at the completed sales on ebay to gauge the selling
prices.  2mb 200LX's by themselves appear to sell for about $255, and a 5mb
200LX with a modest amount of additional gear sold for $325 (#471042370).

By comparison, earlier this year I bought a 2mb 200LX in mint condition with all
manuals, Cpack, Thinfax modem, flash card, serial/parallel convertor, and a
bunch of other gear (the guy was the network specialist for his church) for
$200.

Many of the members here have more than one LX and can generally wait for the
occasional steal/deal, so I'd think that the going rate in this group is lower
than on ebay (except for the newbie who just dropped/broke/lost his/her only LX
who'll sell their first-born child to get a replacement), tho I don't want to
speculate on what others here would pay.

With list members, I've sold items for below the market rate, and I've paid more
than market price on some items, so call me a bottom-feeder with some sense of
community feeling.

All,

Any suggestions for an ISP connection for my HP200LX?  I've used my LX for
years with WWW/LX and Brightnet (in Ohio).  After some recent changes, I've
had to cancel my Brightnet connection.  I've tried some local ISP's but I
guess I'll have to enlist DA's help to alter my logon scripts as it appears
most of the ISP's in Columbus, Ohio add "welcome messages" and other
garbage.  Anyhow, I got to thinking, what about this "free internet" stuff?
Anybody using a 200LX with any element of success with this?

Any help will be DEEPLY appreciated

HP200LX - 6 meg doublespeed, 14.4 pcmcia modem, 16mb Sandisk Compact Flash

new), connectivity cable (brand new), manual, quick guide, radio shack ac

email and newsgroups off of my RoadRunner cable modem account using WWW/LX.
It also has everything set up to attach to a Win95 or Win98 network.  If
interested please contact me.  I will probably ask a reserve price of $350
on ebay.

(3) IBMKEY.EXE compatible function

Keyboard of 100LX has a compatibility problem such as shift key
plus arrow keys, which makes number keys output.  This makes it
not compatible with software based on general PC keyboard.

IBMKEY.EXE, created by Kazoo, fixed this problem.  IBMKEY,
however, hooked int16h for key conversion, therefore cannot
handle the CTRL plus arrow keys.  EXkey solved all these
problematic conversions.

This function is always OFF on System Manager and always ON
otherwise.

 POST.EXE accepts the following arguments on the command line:

  <file name>    configuration file to be used
                 (e.g. MY_POST.CFG)
  -o             go online immediately

Subject:      Robonews setup difficulties
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

I had some difficulties setting up Robonews for the first time. When I
tried to go online, I would get an error message saying couldn't find
news2.exe. I eventually figured out that the latest setup.exe for Post/LX
still puts references to news2.exe in the config files. Once I got rid of
these settings robonews worked fine.

I don't know if this is a bug, or if I wasn't following the directions
exactly. I reinstalled everything several times from scratch with the same
results.

Also, the update for Post.exe says that F7 (Edit) should work on X-Boxes,
but it doesn't seem to work for the X-Boxes installed by Robonews. If I
have an X-Box named palmtop for example, I get an error message saying
There is no newsgroup "palmtop". Have I botched the install, or does it
not work with this kind of xbox?

Hello!

I found the causes:

1.) As D.Hertrich supposed - and this special case I hadn't
    tested - I can copy (in edit) whithout seeable marking.
    This came forward, as I could test an edit.com of the same
    version and german, too, but - typical computer - there are
    some bytes different: at 44 DEU (mine with blind marking)
    and the other at 44 ENU with real marking!
2.) All the above is only working without exkey loaded; this is
    the second heavy disadvantage of exkey beneath the y-x-swapping,
    which I regret, 'cause I'm establishing my environment with
    this utility.

                Klaus.

That sounds like the card may need too much power.  If the 95LX can't =

Try the card with the palmtop plugged into the AC adaptor.  This might =

a bit more power depending on your batteries.

I forgot to mention that I tried that, and it made no difference. The
batteries were at 2.8V. I must say that my power supply is not a regulation
one -- it's 9V DC @ 500ma. However, I _would_ like to be able to use the
flash card without having to trail a power cord behind me.

I just tried it on a password-protected Memo file and it didn't find the

I don't think so. It COULD make a difference if the stress of both
hinges were equivalent if all forces act symmetrically.
But that's not the case, because the right hinge is the one that
contains the mechanics that holds the lid open and the left hinge don't
get any stress.

I think you simply have had luck. :-)

Hi friends,

is anyone of you able to reassamble disassembled right hinges?
I have parts for two of them (screen cases, the springs, the two
plastic parts, the metal ring and the metal axis). But unfortunately I
don't get it all together.

I would be willing to pay all shipping costs and additionally a little
bit for the work itself.

Who wants to do the job?? :-

Mike,

> I had some difficulties setting up Robonews for the first time.

The "old" POST/LX used an "internal" setup procedure which you did
access through Menu/External/Setup or Ctrl-E from the main screen.

Robonews is setup using an "external" program, a ROBOT script routine
from Menu/External/External or Ctrl-x. this will guide you through the
complete setup as well as the modification of the existing setup.

A more risky alternative is to edit robot.cfg and post.cfg manually. I
trust that you should be able to do this also - keep a hardcopy of the
RN docs at hand.

I used both methods and had hardly any problems.

Maybe that's it.  I too am left handed but do many things right handed. I
guess using my Palmtop is one of the things I do right handed, for I
typically open it opposite handed from you. My 100LX and my 200LX both
suffered the hinge crack.

I wasn't clear before. The actual setup of Robonews worked fine. The
problem I had was that when using the setup program for Post/LX (in
post3.zip) to set up email, it also did some configuration for news,
putting in a sample newsgroup, and also it puts in an external program
link which uses news2.exe (It was for downloading a list of newsgroups).
After deleting the sample newsgroup, and that link, I could connect and
download newsgroups ok.

At first I thought it was finding an old configuration file and using
those settings, but if you use a viewer to look at setup.exe, at the end
you'll find data for a configuration file, and one of the lines in the
EXTERNAL section has a reference to news2.exe.

So, it's not really a problem with Robonews setup, but the setup.exe for
Post/LX needs updating I think.

collect e-mail with the HP? As previously mentioned, I bought the HP to do =
a specific job which my MC218 EPOC machine can't do (because of the =
multitasking OS), but as long as I have the HP, it would make sense to set =
it up for e-mail so that I can use it to stay connected if the MC218 gets =
stolen or broken.

* This e-mail was acellerated by EPOC and REM *
* Then it was brought to it's knees by the Internet and GSM *

Related tip;

SuperKey has "sticky key" options and is very configurable with a small
footprint.  (it bagan back in the 64k days)

I had a friend who used them to allow single handed laptop use while
driving with one of those 8 pound early ones... and, surprisingly, he
survives today)

Hope this Helps...

My "postlx.bat" looks like this now:

C:\DFU\WWWLX\WWW.EXE -d !C:\DFU\WWWLX\POST.EXE -n

But if I go online with F5 and then leave Post/LX it still hangs up the
modem...

What am I doing wrong??

PE. ;-)

I just guessed about EDIT.COM.

Okay, I'll copy me edit.com from Win95 to the palmtop and see......
This is version 2.0.026 of edit.com and marking and copying etc. works
fine - just as it should.

Shall I send you this copy of edit.com?

I use PGP.
I have set it up that I can do the following:
(names changed for security ;-) )


At a DOS prompt I call a batch file in my path, say "anything.bat"
If I called "anything" then PGP starts and asks me for my Mantra.
I enter the Mantra, then PGP decrypts the file "anything.pgp" lying in
my \bin folder on the flash card and attributed "hidden" (so nobody
would ever see it with a normal DIR, and nobody expects to find a pgp
file in a bin folder) to "anything.txt". Then the Batch invokes pe with
the txt file.

When I'm done with PE (viewing and/or editing the file), the batch
calls PGP to re-encrypt anything.txt and wipe out the txt contents from
the flash card entirely.

This is a very comfortable setup and I think also a quite safe one.
I use a 768 bit PGP key, and decryption of my 10kB PIN and password
file takes about 15 seconds. Encryption only takes a few seconds (on
double speed, of course).

If someone steals the palmtop, he has to have luck that I didn't remove
the flash card.
Then he has to find the hidden file in the uncommon folder. Then he has
to crack the PGP key.

And then he will be VERY disappointed, because all the PINs are already
changed by me.... and in addition to that I don't have much money on my
accounts, so it's probably not worth the hard work to crack the PGP
file... ;-)

Thanks for the report, and your patience Mike!

I just downloaded the latest POST3.ZIP and indeed it does put a
reference to news.exe in one of the externals and also creates a
news2 newsgroup folder called palmtops.

So I imagine what happened was you selected the palmtops folder for
visit and POST/LX said there was no news2.exe.

It should work - it treats X-boxes like folders.

This is what it used to do - whoops I just checked the version at
www.dasoft and you are so right!! I will look into this!

If you can transfer the file to a desktop machine with Word97... you
can open the file there.  It will not prompt you for the password.

Dunno... works for me.

Check the SUPER site for DBView (Database Viewer).  It is a seperate =

that will read a database file without changing it.  It will do just what =
you
are asking for.

I can E-mail a copy if you can't find it.

That won't be the case for a password-protected MEMO file.  If you open
it in another application, all you get is scrambled text.  It looks like
gibberish.

I recently encountered this problem with an old password-protected MEMO
file, but I was fortunately able to recall the password after about a
week of not thinking about it 8-)

I do not see a problem doing it with a Sh888. It has a irda"modem"

with minor trouble(rf noise problem)

I use the Hplx with Www/Lx 3.0 as my main mail/news'er. The Hplx is
actually my main machine and it has been so for a long time. My desktop
has been broken for months and I do not miss it.

SecureDevice on SUPER, look for SECDEV14.ZIP.  This is what I use and I
believe it to be very secure.

Just because HPCrack can't open it doesn't mean the data is safe.
I wouldn't trust it with anything important because the cipher it is
based on is unknown.

Only trust encryption that uses known, strong, ciphers.  Even then the
implementation may weaken its strength.

I'm left handed but seem to open it by holding the bottom in the right
hand and lifting the lid with the left.  It could be there is a slight
off-angle levering and therefore, pressure as the lid is lifted open.

I've had a hairline hinge crack on a 200.  And it really was "hairline"
as it looked more like a scratch until I examined under a magnifying
glass and opened and closed and noticed just a fractional change in the
"line" - alas it was the crack.

I tend to think this is the key.  When I got my 32 meg (from
Thaddeus, just for plug sake! (G)), I oiled the hinge to loosen what
seemed overtight to me.

I am one of those who still needs the PIMs or I will have to carry
around another device.  Having both a dos computer and a PIM (which
wakes up the computer) in one case is still what I'm after.

If I recall, the other day you were saying you did not want to load a
whole bunch of stuff on the 200 and now you are learning how versatile it
really is! (G)

I don't use the IR function but do use Post/www which is what I think
most irda users are using.  See www.DASOFT.com for more info and demo.

Keep enjoying it.

OK folks, I'm away from home and my 32 meg 200 burped bad.  I lost my C: and
now can't access the 32 partition.  I've gotten the drivers from Mack but I
can't remember how to set them up.  Luckily, I can read the screen without
having the double speed driver loaded and I backed up my data this morning.
Will someone email me a quick "get started" message.

1) copy Macks drivers to the small drive
2) run spd31 from the dos prompt
3) run rd2t2 from the dos prompt
4) add spd31 and rd2t2 to your config.sys
5) reboot and reinstall from your backup

Before you do that you might wand to read the doc's of the drivers :
2a) type 200 enter   and open memo in order to read the docs.

FWIW, I'm a great believer in KISS and I always do the following:
Find a single and simple procedure that I can perform quickly in my head,
and then just write down my passwords .( much like ROTC)
Example:
substract 1 on all even positions, add2 on all uneven. Once you are used to
it, it's quick
Example:
16BT27 becomes 08av19.

You can make it as complicated as your brain gym permits, always filled my
needs,but I do wonder how safe this is?

this reminds me of a question which is quite important for me: How do you

that couldn't be recovered if one loses the password?

How safe is the encryption pe uses?

I've had about 6 palmtops over the years and used them about as much
as you have and I've also never had a hinge crack and I'm right
handed.  Maybe the key is to either be left handed or right handed.
Everybody else has problems.

A couple of them did have pretty tight hinges when I got them and I
worried about them.  But they loosened up in time and have been
fine.

I've also dropped whichever palmtop I'm using at the time at least
several times.  I can't say that all of them have been dropped but,
if not, some have been dropped more than once.

I always open them holding them in my left hand and press and lift
the top from the front center.  This is just the habit I've
developed.  I don't just pull up.  I rotate the top up.  I've
intentionally developed that habit because of reading about cracked
hinges over the years.  Maybe it works.

You want simple (and secure)?

I use SecDev to create a 32k encrypted drive.  I remember ONE good pw
that gives me access to the drive contents.  On the drive is a file that
contains all my other accounts info including the pw to each.
(DON'T use the same pw everywhere.)

I configured SecDev to automatically logout a couple of minutes later so
it doesn't remain 'open'.

Security?  You can't be too safe.  The strength of your security
techniques doesn't guarentee your data is secure; it just takes longer
to break in.

The following line in config.sys will cause your envirionment to be
2048 bytes in your initial dos shell:

SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /E:2048 /P

COMMAND /E:2048 will shell to dos with a 2048 environment, also.

Actually I thought I remembered that all shells had the same amount
of environment space as the initial shell.  But it's been a while.
Also what was true in earlier versions might not be true in later
versions.  In any case, you can force the environment on any shell
by using the /e parameter.

I don't do Usenet newsgroups anymore, as it's too darned slow/expensive by =

Well, I won't be using it for e-mail unless the MC218 breaks down or is =
stolen, but I'd prefer to know how to set it up for e-mail via my SH888 =

I'd like to see any of you beat me on your HP.

The HP is excellent for what I bought it for, but as a writers tool, it =

Then I even think that a normal file viewer on the LX should work.
Memo doesn't encrypt the file, just prevents itself from opening it
without password, right?

...


sorry, I was wrong. Memo DOES encrypt the file, I just tried viewing
a password-protected file with VOlkov Commander's viewer. No luck.

Then Word97 has to have a decryption algorithm built-in that's
compatible with Memo's... WOW.....

Don't think I did (read on to find out why)...many spammers get email
addresses by monitoring news groups.  An easy way around that is to list
your email address as me@remove.email.add, and instruct others to remove
"remove" from the address to respond.  Spammers will not take the time try
and figure this out.

My personal policy on SPAM is that I ignore it, and as you say, I have ne=
ver
confirmed my email address by responding/asking for my name to be removed.

I find I may get 4-5 pieces of useless email (SPAM) a day, but I am also =
a
member of about 6-8 maillists, maybe more, so I think that is doing prett=
y
good. They are all easy to spot ads that I simply delete, but of course I=
 am
on a DSL line, not a 9600 baud modem!

What you could do, if you have a PC running something like outlook, would=
 be
to have your mail client forward a copy of all email that meets certain
rules to your "private" email account, and let the others simply accumula=
te
on the PC to be be removed. This maillist always originates from the same
server, so you could establish a rule that says all mail from this server
should be forwarded to your "private" email address...

Just a thought, hope this helps - I have my main PC copy all the mail for=
 a
few of my maillists to individual folders on the PC, so that I can easily
review maillist emails in one sitting...

Hello HPLXers,

Although neither one of my two 200LXs has this problem, I remembered a
cement from years ago which was used to "weld" acrylic plastic. I
searched the HPLX archives and could come up only with this one
reference to the use of acrylic anything:

http://www.technoir.nu/cgi-bin/search.cgi?query=acrylic&ichoice=1998&results=25

This person used "acrylic glue" with no further description of the
"glue". The product I am familiar with is sold by a company called
"TAP PLASTICS" which I think is based out of Dublin California. "TAP
PLASTICS" is a chain in California which sells all manner of things
related to acrylic plastic for the hobbyist. The "glue" comes in
small, 2 ounce glass bottles. The bottle label says the ingredients
are *Methylene Chloride, PM Glycol Ether*. They also sold applicators
for this stuff which consisted of a small polyethylene bottle with a
blunt hypodermic needle protruding from it's cap. I don't recommend
the applicator bottle because it assumes you're gluing a long joint
and allows way too much cement to come out.

The label says this stuff is called *ACRYLIC CEMENT*. It is a free
flowing (extremely low viscosity), volatile (rapid evaporation)
liquid. In use, the parts to be joined are put in position and clamped
in some way to hold them in place under pressure. The cement is
usually applied with a hypodermic syringe to allow careful control of
the amount used. A small amount will spread by capillary action to all
surfaces of the joint. The cement attacks (liquifies) the plastic on
both sides of the break and the clamp pressure forces the two, now
molten, edges of the plastic to flow together. Shortly thereafter the
cement evaporates leaving no residue. Once the cement has evaporated
there is nothing to keep the plastic molten anymore and so it
re-solidifies.

Since I wasn't sure if the plastic used to mold the 200's case was an
acrylic, I removed the battery cover and applied a tiny amount to the
underside of the cover and swirled it around. Sure enough, it
"attacks" the plastic so it should work on the 200's cover.

Since neither one of my 200's has the dreaded crack, I can't test this
procedure but if I could, I would try to somehow horizontally clamp (a
vise?) the cover with enough pressure to see the gap narrow as the
pressure is applied. Once I had the gap as narrow as possible I would
carefully apply one or two SMALL drops of cement to the crack,
applying enough so that I was sure it flowed the entire length of the
crack. I wouldn't disturb the assembly until the cement evaporated to
minimize the possible surface disfigurement. If I were to use too much
cement and the outer surface of the lid became disfigured during
evaporation, I would probably try rubbing it hard with my finger
first. Failing that I would then try something like a pencil eraser.


Best regards,
 Jack                          mailto:jlarosa@bellsouth.net

I am quite sure that setup.exe was not updated from version 2 to
version 3. It still contains stuff which was used only in version
2, and the new "Robonews" newsgroups can't be modified at all.

Hi Tom, yup and it is now fixed :)

The POST.CFG entries for all X-boxes (of which Robonews newsgroups are
a subset) can now be modified as if they were folders. The main
newsgroup-specific CFG items are in ROBOT.CFG which is probably best
modified using an editor.

I learned about usenet newsgroups the hard way several years ago, so my
current address has never been posted to a newsgroup. in fact, I don't even
give it in computer readable / clickable format on my website, but it has
happened in the past that other people have put my address on the www when
quoting something I have written. Personally, I never post other peoples
e-mail addresses in a public place without prior consent.

Bear in mind that if you don't put your email address in the body of the
email,. someone can find your address by just looking at the properties in
outlook express.

Bob,

First run spd31.exe from the prompt. This is the screen driver.

Then on the C: drive (this is the drive that will be changed to the F:
drive after drivers are loaded - the small partition not the 32 meg one)
copy the following files:

spd31.exe
rdt2t.exe
tremm.exe (if you use expanded memory)
rdswap.exe (this file swaps the C: drive smaller partition to F:)

Then create with Memo the following file:

Config.sys (contents below)

device=C:\spd31.exe
device=C:\rdt2t.exe
device=C:\rdswap.exe

Then reboot.

If you want expanded memory run the instemm.exe file and set the number
of pages you need then insert the following line into your config.sys
file on the F: drive.

device=c:\tremm.exe

I had this "feature" with my first desktop computer (a 286 with a
heavy 20MB disk and 1 MB RAM). When I was working to long on
 programming my adress program, any changes I made in the
code did not work in the executable, until I found out that the date
in the files had not changed after midnight.
The reason for my compiling problem was that I used a make
utility that compiled the program only if the object file was older
than the program. It took a while until I found out what was going
on  <grrrh>

Hello Folks:

Today we announced a special limited discount offer on WWW/LX
Version 3 licenses, and the establishement of a mailing list
to help our customers get updates on our products, offers and
any updates we make.

Two days ago we released a new version of READ/LX. This
program helps you in reading texts rapidly. Another part of
the product is a horizontal version of VR.

Also, Helmuth Guenther contributed an excellent addon program
which identifies the modem attached to a port and initializes
it appropriately. COM-ID works with Robot/LX.

Please check our webpage at http://www.dasoft.com for more
details.

Thank you!

I have successfully re-assembled a right hinge by fully compressing the
spring in a vice and used strong thread tie the spring closed so that when
removed from the vice, the spring stays compressed. I used a thin "button
thread" although there are many alternatives.

The hinge can then be re-assembled with the compressed spring, and when
complete, it is possible to use a very sharp knife to cut the thread and
release the spring. The thread will remain inside the hinge but does not
stop it operating.

I was just wondering. Does anyone know of a mailing list (similar to this
one) for users of digital cameras? I'm particularly interested in a list for
Nikon users, but failing that, a general digicam list would do.
-----------

No mailing list, but the following quotes:

-Web-site with links to all software that will run on an
Olympus and compatible camera's:

http://huizen.dds.nl/~kropveld/olympus.html#sw

-If I could watch (monitor) the serial port of my PC having the camera
connected with the W95/Camera-Connection prgr, I could figure out what
has to be sent.

Does somebody know such a monitoring prgr for the PC? Use READ.EXE written
by Mr. Mamoru Terauchi.  Mr.Kazuhiko Shinozawa is
the original author of the program for Linux platform.  Mr.Terauchi
ported it to DOS.

Download it from his homepage.
http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~mp4m-truc/

In case you have difficulty to read Japanese pages, the program is at
http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~mp4m-truc/digicame/rxx_com1.lzh

- digital cameras from SANYO, EPSON and AGFA, which uses the same LSI as a
controler.  See his report at: http://www.itojun.org/itojun.html

-I have succesfully used photopc with my Olympus 500.
Look at http://www.average.org/digicam/

- the pc-photo forum. Here's
the website for their quick pick comparison page.

http://www.dcforum.com/cgi-bin/dc/new/quick_pick/quick_pick.cgi

maybe some of these will link to what you are looking for?

You need the Www/Lx package from Dasoft. It is the only emailer that

Not sure what the standard is. I just think it is a bit cumbersome to
either scroll your long line to see what I should reply or wrap'em
myself when I reply.

Yes it is expencive. But I use either a V34 modem or a
ethernetconnection with my Hplx to connect to mail/newsservers. I
sometimes use irda/gsm too.

Hehe.. I know what you mean. I used(used because my desktop pc is
screwed up at the moment) to connect to internet and have the Hplx
cnnected via homenetwork. Also to surf and play some games on. My main
machine has been the Hplx for years.

Not sure I would beat you but I am pretty fast on the keyboard on the
Hplx. I did not like the keyboard on the 5Mx/Mc218. It felt like I had
to hit the keys right on/down to make it work. My father has a 5Mx and
I could not get used to holding it with my hands and writing with my
thumbs like I do with my Hplx. Do you use a table when writing on the
Mc218

I do not use the Hplx for surfing the web. But I do use it for anything
else. I would rather writer something on the Hplx while watching tv
than sit infront of the desktop pc. But I guess I could do that with
the Mc2189/5Mx too. But I do not think they are as configurable
compared to the Hplx. I very much like the Hplx because I can make it
do "anything" with batchfiles and macros and special built software.

I would not mind if the Hplx was faster, but it does what I want to do.
And it does it very well. I am not sure I would find the "same"
programs that I use in the Epocworld.

Not sure I would like a new keyboard. It would probably mean I need to
put the unit on the table tow rite and that is not for me.

I use a different method, which only works for passwords built
from numbers, like PIN codes for example:

I build a word using the characters on a mobile, associated
with the numbers.

Example: 2665 becomes  BOOK (or COOL)

I only remember and write down the word, not the number.
It happened that I wanted to get money from a bank automat,
but left my mobile at home. I asked the next best person,
if I may have a short look at her mobile. First she thought
I'm crazy, but after I explained the reason...

I joined a web-based discussion group at photopoint (I don't have the exact
URL on me, but I'd guess www.photopoint.com).

The discussion group is non-vendor specific, but it was pretty slow last
time I was there, with an answer coming up several days after the posting
and not always with the depth you get here.

DOS and the LX have been around long enough to have nurtured a crop of
experts, but in the digicam world, it seems everyone is still a newbie,
especially with the state of the art changing weekly.

Hi

Well, as known, lxb is only running on lx. But is there a similar
(free) prog which is windowing under DOS?
Perhaps lxb is 'only' to recompile with the appropriate
tcc- or qc-libs.

Let me just add a few words regarding the purpose of that little
utility com-id.

I am using a couple of different modems connected at com1; one at the
office, one at home, one along with a "project related" GSM phone.
Each one with a different setting. I experienced it as real hassle
always taking care the right modem initialization. Using the GSM phone,
most ISP accept ISDN dialin, which saves the modem training period.

I ended up to have the palmtop find out, what's connected. Especially
when using post/lx after www/lx is already launched, robot/lx seems to
be a powerful tool. Only a few lines are needed; quite impressive tool.

Maybe somebody here has the same needs? I would like to share you
ideas.

Kind regards

Helmuth

The fax hardware is just a shortwave receiver with an OP-amp and a couple of
other little bits, but the software does read the RS-232 continually, so the
"lost interrupt" sounds like a very probably explanation. Timing is cruicial
to weatherfax reception. Is there a cure?

I'm afraid that isn't much good to me. As previously mentioned, my only access
to the Internet is with my MC218 through GSM cell-phone at 9600 baud, so
web-based stuff is just too darned expensive (and slow).

So, how about it. Would anyone here like to start a digicam list? It's easy
enough to do at www.listbot.com. I'm already the list owner of a couple of
boating related mailing lists, but feel that the administration of the digicam
list is better left to someone with better web access who doesn't travel six
months every year... If I am going to be able to participate, one of the
ground rules must be that posting binaries (like photographs) to the list is
not allowed. Maybe one could set up a second list for those who wanted to post
photographs.

> So which Nikon are you pushing? 800 / 950 / 990 /

It's the 950. I'm very happy with it. The only thing I really dislike is the
fact that when I switch it on, it always zooms the lens to the max. telephoto
setting. If I've taken my time composing the picture and the camera
automatically switches off, I have to reframe the picture. I have no idea why
it does this. It would make sense if the camera parked the lens when switching
off, but this only happens when I switch it on again.

My greatful thanks to Hans Peter Staber, William E. Blankenship and
(especially) Mack Baggette for the assistance provided when my 200 burped.
This is the reason that I've been more than willing to put up with the
"static level" on this list.
As an unsolicited testimonial to Mack's 32 Meg memory upgrades, I've got to
say I'm AMAZED!  My 200 has been burping recently when I would switch
between a large database and Quicken.  I'd have to do the control alt del
thing and it would reboot OK.  Because of this I have been backing up my
data directory frequently.  (Probably about as often as I should if I
weren't having problems.)  Yesterday when I tried to open Quicken it hung
again.  The three finger salute didn't work.  Waiting for a half hour with
the 200 on the AC adapter didn't help either.  The BIG reset didn't work
either!  No response to the keyboard whatsoever.  I had a fresh data backup
so I pulled all three batteries.  Started it up and realized that the
flashcard I had with me didn't have the startup files.  I was away from home
for a few days and wouldn't have access to my other cards for a couple days.
PANIC!!!!
Using a Web account I got the drivers from Times2.  But I was so braindead
without my "brain", that I didn't even realize that Mack's site sent me zip
files instead of exe's.  That is when I emailed the list.  (In my limited
defense, I was using a borrowed PC that was running Windows ME and it tended
to insist that I shouldn't see the file extensions.)
Of course my friends on the list came to my rescue last night and gave me
the advice I needed.  Then the real surprise.  All of the files on the 32
meg partition survived the loss of power from my battery pulling trial.
Mack, I salute you for designing something that works the way it is supposed
to and much MORE!
Thanks again to all who helped,
bob

that page is moved to

http://www.xs4all.nl/~kropveld/olympus.html

It mentions also a collection of digicam software that will run on
the HP200lx.
I have connected the PhotoPC software on a NIKON CP700 as well, and
it will do various undocumented functions on the camera as well.
It will be able to release the shutter (and make the HP Agenda start
up PhotoPC to release the shutter! :).

It will also be able to change various registers in the Camera. I
used this to put my name in the Exif header of each picture. Note
however that Nikon strongly does not recommend to change Nikon camera
registers. This is the reason that CAME (also a splendid camera
utility) does not support Nikon cameras anymore.

PS My support for that page is stopped, because the Olympus camera
got broke again (and later the Nikon got stolen). Some links may be
dead.
I will update as soon as I have a new camera!

   Okay, I made an error in reporting what MODE did when an HP 95LX user
had a question about MODE.COM.  I stuck the 200LX MODE.COM into debug
and tried to find the version check.  I could not find it.  It turns out
that it calls some ROM code in the 200LX.  I looked at the MODE.COM in
MS-DOS 6.20, and found much more reasonable behavior.  The "edited"
version follows.  The DEBUG prompt is a hyphen "-".  Lines that start
with one are the debug commands that were entered.  The session was then
annotated with comments starting with a semi-colon.

debug c:mode.com                  ; This is MODE from MS-DOS6.20

-q                                ; Quit back to DOS

   So, if you wanted to change the version check, you would make a copy
of mode.com, and load it into DEBUG.  Then you would put a new version
number in at the word at location 10F8.  Note that the byte order is
reversed.  Or you could put two NOP's in at 10FA (NOP = H'90' = No OPer-
ation).  Then there would not be any version check.  Use the "E" command
to change the content of a byte.  And then use the "W" debug command to
write out the patched program file.

   Here is an "edited" debug session on a version 3.20 diskette.  The
comments show approximately what you would do to locate the version
check for PC-DOS.

debug b:mode.com                  ; PC-DOS 3.20

   In this case you would change the version bytes at locations 04B0 and
04B5, or change the conditional jump at 04B1 to an unconditional jump to
location 04C2.

   Of course, there could be some reason, other than the logical one of
using common routines in ROM, that the 200LX has a convoluted MODE.COM.
So a patched version may still not work.

MS-DOS 6.20
 Directory of C:\DOS

MODE     COM        23,569 09-30-93   6:20a

PC-DOS 3.20
 Volume in drive B is DOS321

MODE     COM         6,864 12-30-85  12:00p

200LX MS-DOS 5.0
 Volume in drive L is ROM DISK

MODE     COM        15,540 04-06-93   1:29p

   Given the date, why not a DOS 6.xx?  File sizes?

I'd be interested in the details of the LX-WWW/LX-Roadrunner set-up.
Do you plug directly into the cable modem or go through the WIN9x

Could I trouble you for a copy of your config/setup files?

Sorry for the late reply, but I am a bit late on reading...

I use a program available on the web as 'disp188a.zip' to
convert .jpg to .bmp; this program handles all the most common
graphic files and can do format transformations between them
in a batch use, with a single-line command.

  www.cs.bgu.ac.il/~meshiach/download.html#dosgrfx
  ftp.uoknor.edu/SimTel/msdos/graphics/disp188a.zip

I hope this helps.

Best Regards,
Max.

Well, since I don't have the source code and probably don't remember enough
programming (assuming it's in a language I've ever worked with), this isn't an
option.

It's connected to ground and pin 6 of the HP's RS-232 cable. I  don't have any
RS-232 docs here, and can't remember what pin 6 is.

I assume this will cost me? I thought someone here said the original processor
speed is around 7MHz? LXSTAT says mine is running at 15.836773 MHz. Does this
mean I already have the upgrade?

Nope, I'm running in straight DOS with very clean CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT
files. See my post about printer problems for listings of the CONFIG and
AUTOEXEC.

Maybe it would be possible to write a TSR which can set the date? I'm not sure
if this would work though. I tried running a TSR clock, but when I put the
WeFax software in auto-receive mode, the clock stalled and WeFax was unable to
detect the start of a fax and start receiving. It still worked with manual
receive though.

It's now just after midnight so I checked, and sure enough, the date was wrong
again, so it seems this happens every night at midnight if the software is
running in auto-receive mode.

I don't know if Bracknell actually transmit any faxes at midnight. Would it be
possible to write a TSR which sends a keystroke to the program to get it out
of auto receive mode (Esc) at a minute to midnight, and then puts it back in
auto receive mode (A, S) a minute after midnight? Presumably, if the program
hogs the interrupts, the TRS will never get a chance to do its thing?

I couldn't decide under which subject to file ...
1. Subject: Re: Help with getting 200LX case made
2. Subject: Re: A 486-LX
The attractiveness of the HP 95 LX / HP n00 LX nMB remains (was)
its LONG battery life WITH "off the shelf" batteries (AA)
there are many suppliers who make boards with a CPU
AKA miniature computers w/o display,
among them: http://www.tern.com in Davis, CA
BUT it requires V5+ and V12+ etc...

Hoping this would not turn not an extended subject
similar to almost a year ago, that lasted for months
and almost a thousand messages:
Condensed: An Intel Pentium chip was a power hog
The 486 chip had the CGA/LCD driver on board chip
thus no extra power draining chip/ICs on board on a new waferboard.
But no one could get the specs for it.

BUT I am always receptive to new ideas.
Now people would probably want to add the Miniature CF or CF+ or the Sony
Memory Stick
and turn it into another wish list of storage options.

Have you been at: http://rwhitby.hplx.net/ and HP200LX Microsoft Network
Connectivity Kit ? There's good info there.
 Some time ago, I connected the palmtop via crossover cable to my Win95
desktop.
If he info on R.Whitby's page doen't solve your problem, tell me exactly how
far you got, and I'll try to be of further help.

Subject:      my screen is finally dying after almost 5 years -- where to
              repair?

The screen on my HP 1000CX is finally dying after almost 5 years of ownership.
I'm figuring that if I can get it repaired within a 2 week time period, I
won't have to go out and buy a Libretto as a replacement :-).

The current symptom is that the right side flashes with the left side of the
screen.  I also have this annoying line running down the middle of the
screen.

Where can I get this repaired that will have a < 2 week turnaround time and
end up costing less than a new Libretto :-)?

Thanks.

I have used LL5 (Lap Link V) in a DOS window with Win 98 but have been

I tried using the Transdigital Parallel card and serial. I also tried
with and without the null modem.

Any other file copying programs that do work undeer Win 2000?

Any suggestions?

Hi all,

Recently had to reinstall EVERYTHING (managed to let both sets of batteries
die, BUT had decent back-ups; so I'm not crying, etc.!!).

I'm still setting things up and haven't reinstalled Software Carousel yet
(the pre-set SSC from Thaddeus, w/ all the "goodies") and I'm noticing my
system is just SPEEDING along!

I'm not complaining about the speed. I'm just wondering if it were slower in
it's pre-crash state because of "decayed" files ... i.e., like a "too
full/complex" registry or win.ini file in those "other" systems, I wonder if
I may have too complex or age/user-corrupted .env files, etc., that are
slowing my system down. an old PC Mag. article called this "OS Decay" and
recommended doing a "clean" Windows reinstall, every now and then, to house
clean ... since our OS is built-in, is there something else that could be
slowing me down?.

The problem w/ a good back up is that you can reinstall the problem <grin>.

I also wondered if running Software Carousel slowed things down, just a
little bit.

I'll run the database checker on my phonebook, etc., every now and then, but
haven't found any problems in a while.

Just wondered what the list's thoughts were.

TIA,

OSsification <g>.

Probably as you've surmised, a combination of factors: bloated env/ini
files/path statements, SSC overhead, and maybe a fragmented (herniated?) disk.

I agree in theory, but disagree in principle with the notion that you have to
periodically do a clean reinstall of an OS (or any application).  That just
implies that the software was never designed properly to include its own checks
for currency.  Unfortunately, this appears to have been, and is still, the state
of the art.

What might be interesting is to maintain a dual-boot system and, over time,
compare speeds for your LX when booted to "power-user" mode, vs "lean-and-mean"
mode.

I don't run SSC myself and I try to keep my apps down to a minimum so that the
various dependencies are somewhat manageable.  That being said, my configuration
files are probably a mess also!

Hi friends,

I'm just curious:
Did anyone of the 700LX users ever try to replace the Nokia Datacard in
the 2md PCMCIA slot by a Flash card (as an "internal" hard disk)?
Does it work?

I would like to open a .txt or .doc-File in X-Finder with ReadLX, by
just "clicking" on it,
but the Read says that it cannot find bigfont. Bigfont is in the
Read-Prg-Directory. I tried it with Read-Dir in the path-statement in the =
Autoexec,
, does not work, same I do this wit Vertical Reader, by assigning VR to =
.doc or .txt
via: "A:\READER\VR.EXE %" in Finder.cfg. If I replaced this with
"A:\READ\READ.EXE %", see above: "cannot find bigfont". What to do?

I tried, both with an Epson 512 KB SRAM (from an Omnigo 100) and my Viking
32 MB CF card+adapter. It just booted normally. Nothing in any drives, no
new drives. So maybe Mack would consider writing a driver? :-)

Hi Everyone,

This is sort-of OFF TOPIC, I know, <flattery>but you are all
by-and-large of above average intelligence and
experience,</flattery> so I thought I'd ask here. Reply
off-list if you think it's of no interest to others.

If I wanted to back up my entire C drive with PKZIP, I'd use:

zip -pr cdrive c:\*.*

What if I want to do that, but skip the _dat directory and
all that it contains, including its sub-directories and files?

I've tried

zip -pr -xC:\_dat\*.* cdrive c:\*.*

(and all possible variations on the C:\_dat\*.* theme)

Next I tried doing a

dir c:\_dat /s/b >Exclude
zip -pr -x@Exclude cdrive c:\*.*

No luck. Anybody been here before?

PKZIP or Info-Zip zip? you write PKZIP but at the same time use "zip" in
your command line examples. They differ slightly in use, so it's important
to know which one you want.

> No luck. Anybody been here before?

With PKZIP, what you wrote works fine for me - ie:

  pkzip -pr -xC:\_dat\*.* cdrive C:\*.*

With Info-ZIP ZIP, the following works:

  zip -pr cdrive.zip c:\*.* -x c:\_dat\*.*


Notice the small differences in syntax. Info-ZIP ZIP requires the -x
option as the last one on the command line, and there should be a space
between -x and the filespec.

I have used them for Nokiamaillist/Zx7mailist/mdlist without any

Maybe you want the "-x@list" option?  I don't know if this'll work but
try this.

  dir c:\_dat\*.* /s/b > list
  zip -pr -x@list cdrive c:\*.*

Why would you want to considering by default notepad, memo and others store

I took my 3 year old absolutely stock Lib50CT into Toshiba dealers
yesterday for a 16MB RAM upgrade which they say they just "clicked in".
It was the first time the case had been opened since purchase. Now I
find the Libretto screen is totally dead. An external monitor still
works though.

Did anybody come across this phenonenon when upgrading the RAM on a
Libretto? The dealers want to see it again. I fear what they might do
to it second time around<G>. They won't let me watch them work on it.

Tony
I am thinking of asking them to unclick the RAM and if the screen works
then to keep the RAM :)

This sounds familiar - did the unit work at all after they poped in the RAM?
Some RAM didn't seat right and caused minor problems... Opening the case anr
re-installing the memory seems to have solved most problems (IIRC, YMMV)...

Tony,

I used to have a 50. I seem to remember a BIOS setting which
turned the LCD off for use with an external monitor. Also IIRC,
the "BIOS" was activated via a Toshiba Utilities program. Might
be worth checking before a trapse back to the shop.

Thanks to all who replied. I'll combine various replies in one
post.

1) Info-Zip or PKZIP. It's PKZIP. I've renamed the exe cos I'm
too lazy to type 5 letters.

2) Why not _dat? I wanted to divide a giant backup job into two
pieces. One of a large directory, the other of everything but
the large directory. The disk isn't on the HP, I just wanted to
give an example that people could visualise.

3) You're quite right. Laust. What I wrote does work. My fault
was to give a simplified example. What you've highlighted is
that the exclude path and the backup path must match
textually; it's not enought that they're logically equivalent.
Example:

1) pkzip -pr -xc:\_dat\*.* backup c:\*.*
2) pkzip -pr -x\_dat\*.* backup c:\*.*
3) pkzip -pr -xc:\_dat\*.* backup \*.*

1 Works. 2 & 3 do not, even though they imply the same request
(and your current drive is C:). I was using a type 2/3 command
line and it wasn't working.

Thanks again to everyone.

Wow thanks everybody for your helpful input! I took the Libretto back in
today and just after reading all your messages they rang and said a fuse
had blown!!! They replaced it an all is well again. Poor old machine,
it must have got a bit delicate over the years. We don't know why the
fuse blew. I appreciated all your support - it worked like magic :)

What about using a newsgroup ? I use rec.photo.digital and filter it to
 receive messages with "Canon" or "A50" in them.

If you have a low level of paranoia you should make a complete backup
and then open the case. Lift the motherboard and clean the press fit
connector area (flat film leads). Check if the unit works after you
reassembled it.

Another possibility would be that the press contacts directly under the
screen are dirty or loose. So you can first try to pry off the screen cover
with a blade or something like that and fasten the screws there. IF the
problem disappears or gets better, you probably have to clean these contacts.

FIRST, try to press manually together the left side of the screen (the
border besides the screen).  Does that help?

Or maybe the 2nd port is only wired for communication purposes and
doesn't lead the data storage lines (if they are seperated)?

I don't know the PCMCIA specification, so I can't say for sure, but at
least we know now that the 700LX doesn't have two equivalent slots
(like the DoubleSlot has, e.g.).

Possibly some hint:
I can replicate error 6118 after net view; and net diag gives me the
following reply:"Microsoft etc searching for a diagnostic server""No
diagnostic servers were detected on the network"

I believe I get this message when either the pamtop switched off, or when I
ran net-up.bat for a second time, or possibly when the batteries are low.
Amongst the flashing messages I can see "Driver initialisation failed" and
Error 2162: the requested service has already been started"
So far, the cure I used is Ctrl-Left shift on, answer no, terminate all
applications, run net-up fresh, username etc. "Net view" then shows my PC as
a server, and on the Pc I can map the Hp as a drive. Must be more elegant
cures.
As said in my previous post, all this is with a crossover cable direct to my
PC's network card, a setup different from yours.

Hi Chris,

If no solution is found, may be you can try this:

attrib +h c:\_data\*.*
pkzip -pr cdrive c:\*.*
attrib -h c:\_data\*.*

It may unhide some hidden files as a side effect.

If I wanted to back up my entire C drive with PKZIP, I'd use:

zip -pr cdrive c:\*.*

What if I want to do that, but skip the _dat directory and
all that it contains, including its sub-directories and files?

I've tried

zip -pr -xC:\_dat\*.* cdrive c:\*.*

(and all possible variations on the C:\_dat\*.* theme)

Next I tried doing a

zip -pr -x@Exclude cdrive c:\*.*

No luck. Anybody been here before?

Hi,

I found this little utility which may solve your problem. You can download
it here:

http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/~af380/Tips.html

I can e-mail it to you privately if prefer.

This is what it is supposed to do:

"FIXCLOCK
Have you ever played a computer game for a half hour and found out that your
computer clock is now three or four hours fast? Many games change the system
timer interrupt rate to a more frequent one so they can produce less jerky
animation without it being affected by the processor speed. Unfortunately,
many of them fail to correct for the faster incrementation rate to the
software system clock and your computer clock runs like a jaguar on speed.

Usually, the only fix for this is to manually change the time (which is
error prone and alters your hardware (CMOS) clock setting as well as the
software clock -- and requires you to have an accurate time source other
than your computer) or to shut the computer off and then back on so the
system will reread the hardware clock again to reset your software system
clock.

FIXCLOCK.COM to the rescue. After running one of these games, just run the
FIXCLOCK programme. It reads your hardware clock and sets the system
software clock to match it. No fancy parameters to memorize. Just type
"fixclock" (without the quotes) and press your ENTER key.

The programme and instructions are available here in a single tiny zipped
file called, unimaginatively, fixclock.zip."

I would also like to recommend the following link which is full of D.O.S.
tips, utilities, FAQs, etc. The site is dedicated to old computers using
DOS.

No, I copied and modified the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT from D:, so it
survived from there. It shouldn't have any bearing on my printing problem
though. I've removed it now.

The last bit of the path statement should be c:\printgif; It probably got axed

Yes, it blinks. It also looks like the printer blinks, but this may be a

Hello all.  This post has enough of a connection with the hplx that I chose
not to label it fluff or OT.

My wife and I are shopping for a new desktop PC, and we are thinking on a
Compaq Presario 5000.

The question is this: I wish to retain as much compatibility to my HPLX and
16 bit DOS/Windows software as possible, so which Windows is best for the
purpose, while keeping support for the latest hardware and software?   I am
inclined towards Windows98, though they are offering me Windows ME.   Both
are supposed to support DOS, but I have heard that ME has some compatibility
issues that 98 doesn't have with old stuff.   Is this so?    I also read
that 98 has support and drivers for some things that ME just leaves for
third party folks.  Is that so?   The latter comment concerns IR support in
particular.

Any and all comments appreciated.

Domingo

Of course, as soon as this message went, I realised I was choosing the
complicated way! Just run net-down.bat and then net-up.bat(for a non
persistent client/server connection with netbeui protocol)
I will come back on ipx/spx

Sorry for the late reply as I was away.

The reason ABCTSR and BATTLOG  was swapped out from memory is because it is
loaded after MAXDOS. It is important where you place TSR programs in your
AUTOEXEC.BAT file. The correct sequence should be,

    ABCTSR
    BATTLOG
    MAXDOS -L -WF:\TMP
    200
    MAXDOS -R

Hope this helps.

Leong

I have set up MAXDOS strictly according to the intructions
given, ie, include the lines "maxdos -l -wf:\tmp", where f:\tmp
is the swap directory, before any TSR's, which are just ABCTSR
and BATTLOG, and "maxdos -r" after the line "200".

Now, when the programs are called under MAXDOS, I do not see
the battery voltage on the F1 label anymore. I think it is
because ABCTSR has been swapped out. And I suspect BATTLOG is
too, so that the log display is probably no longer accurate.

Have I missed something? What I should like to know is how
others set up MAXDOS and whether they have any or all of the
programs working under SYSMGR.

Thanks for any info.

Subject:      Reading mail from OE

Hi all,

A little off-topic, but sometimes people are lenient here so let's go. It
might involve a little DOS so. I'm thinking of getting my email out from
Outlook Express 5.5 and in to seperate files per message on disk. Then it's
easier to use any kind of reader or importer. A seperate directory maybe for
each folder.

 The problem is that many messages have the same name, so just dragging them
across to a directory doesn't work. I can mark a whole lot of messages and
forward them and then drag the copied message to a folder. Now it's in a
standard text format, but one big file, which I can read with List.

How can I split this large file up into seperate messages? What would be
nice was if one could specify the filename as the message subject (the file
system would have to support LFNs, I suppose) and get the file date to be
the message date sent.

Anybody done this or know of a util that does this? I have tried Dbxtract, a
W32 util, but it doesn't manage to write every message to disk.

Franklin

Domingo,

I would suggest sticking with Windows98SE. Here you will be able to startup
in DOS or restart in DOS. Windows ME has eliminated this possibility, except

Is anyone using  MS Project or another program that will convert back and

I've tried

(and all possible variations on the C:\_dat\*.* theme)

I've done that a lot except that i put the -x last.   I don't know

pkzip -pr cdrive c:\*.* -xc:_dat\*.*

I just did it using that exact command and it worked fine.

I had always assumed that the palmtop behaved like a PC with a single
diskette drive, i.e. you could address a flash card in the PCMCIA slot as
either a: or b: and, for example, do "copy a:*.* b:" by swapping the card
in the slot.

Someone on this list pointed out that this is not true. Apparently, the
palmtop's PCMCIA controller recognizes two separate PCMCIA slots -- but the
second one (drive b:) is just missing on a 100/200LX. So I'm not sure why
you can't run a flash card in the second slot of a 700LX .

Also Windows ME will bring down a DSL line, eliminate the use of Activesync,
and also mess up your USB port.  Stick with 98 for the time being.  I have
the 200lx working with windows 98SE, I can't say weather the same is true
for ME.

I had an earlier DOS version of MS Project running on my HPLX but have
switched to PRO/LX from DASoft. It's much smaller, easier - basically
an ASCII text database with a GUI and incorporates CCPM (critical chain
project management ideas). You can export to *.CSV file which can be
imported into MS-P.

PRO/LX is freeware and should be available at ftp.dasoft.com/pub/
somewhere.

I have a question on applying the Plastix Bonder.

The crack in my unit doesn't afford enough room to follow the
instructions.  I can apply the Activator to both sides, but applying the
Bonder to just one side is impossible!  My last attempt didn't hold up to
opening and closing the case afterwards, and I almost became permanently
attached to my palmtop (if you know what I mean ;-)!

I've considdered simply breaking the case appart so that I can cleanly
apply the Plastix Bonder, but I'm not all that confident it will hold
together (based on my previous attempt).

Suggestions?

Andreas, thanks for Your answer. In fact, it does'nt work the way I would
like it to. I created "read.bat"

@echo off
cls
a:
cd\read
read.exe

and inserted it in finder.env:

.doc    ,       ,c:\bin\read.bat %c

then the font gets loaded and the requester of the last opened files with
the option "pick" comes up, where I could choose the .doc-file that I want
to read. This is not what I want, I would like the in filer choosed file
with the suffix .doc would start read,exe and fills the desired file in it.
With VR.EXE this works flawless and I don't know why not with read.
Any further idea?

Many thanks and regards,
Axel

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

I added a cd-writer recently.  So now I have what amounts to TWO cd
drives.  Software has been installed from one or the other.

Unfortunately, I don't always remember which software wants which drive
(h: or i:) for its cd-data-disk.  Also, sometimes when I'm playing music
in one, I would prefer the other to be used for a data cd.

It would be very nice to be able to convince either Win98 or the
software seeking the data to try BOTH cd drives, kind of like a CD SUBST
routine.  Anybody aware of any utility that can help this.  It would
operate more like a path statement.  If the data was not on one drive,
it would try the other drive.

Thanks for any help from this group.

Would it work if you provided X-Finder with the path back to the document,
like this?:

.doc    ,       ,c:\bin\read.bat %p%c

This time, point and shot works so far, BigFont gets loaded, but now I =
get the message:
"Could not open xxx.doc", and after confirming the ok-button "End of text =

appears. After again confirming ok, the prog disappears :-(

I downloaded the latest version of ol2lx that works with
outlook 2000.  I was able to create an appt book file called
apptx.adb using ol2lx to read the exchange and write the file.
I then ftp'd the file to my 200lx and tried to open with the
appointment book.  It gives me the error unable to read file.
Before I did the ftp I used the binary command to make sure
it is transferred that way.

Any ideas what the problem might be?

Just one more question on this subject.   Is a commercial program like
partition magic the only way to have one section of my hard drive formatted
with FAT16 and another with FAT32?  I know how to do this from scratch
without additional programs, but these PC's come preinstalled (though I take
pause from the fact that FAT32 was always slower than FAT16 in every PC I
got my hands on).

One last piece of info / advice ---------------- try to do what you want in
the store
on the computer you're considering before you purchase ---- like try to
partition,
I'll wager you can't do it as it comes from the factory : (

====== NOT saying that HP or Compaq or any of them build a "bad" machine,
as I said mine has been probably the most trouble free of any computer I've
ever owned,
and I'm sure the reason they keep everything so proprietary is for their
customer support
to help end users much easier ---------- it's just one of those things that
no - one seems
to ever talk about in reviews, a it was a word to the wise : )

Just having found a fast growing crack on my unit I am delighted to hear that
in the future we may have spare lids been made ;-)
But I would not like to keep my breath and want to know which glues have
been used so far with good success.
Recently, somebody mentioned the Loctite product but although loctite
pretend to have a technical center here they could not help me with the
mentioned product. Did somebody keep the glues listed? Or do I have to
wrestle through the archive?
A general description of the would also be of help but I must confess that
until now, no description available on the packing gave me enough
confidence to try them out ;-(

Whatever hits the fan will not be evenly distributed.

Did you read the documentation thoroughly?  I seem to remember
there is a problem opening the adb file the first time after you
create a new one.  Do you have to modify an existing adb file,
instead of creating a new one?  I may have my utilities mixed up,
however, check the doc file.

Hello all:

A while back, I remember that a little kit was available, containing
such things as screws, rubber feet, battery holders, IR port cover
etc. I lost my ir port cover for my 200LX. Is there a source for
these still?

Thanks in advance for any replies

Why? You still won't be able to *RUN* two instances at once. If what you
want is access to multiple files from  &... it'd be easier to either
define macros to open the different files from within the applications or
to edit FILER.INI to run them from Filer.

A previous post mentioned a plastic solvent. Two similar product, one called
Tenax and the other distributed by Plastistruct, are available at hobby
shops. The are a solvent, rather than a glue, so it will work best where you
can squeeze the crack together after applying a _very_ small amount of the
solvent. Use a toothpick or needle to get a small drop, for example, or use
a thin hypodermic needle. These solvents are nasty chemicals, so don't get
them on your skin and use plenty of ventilation.

Another product to try, if the crack is wider, is a gap filling
cyanoacrylate (AKA "SuperGlue"). You can also get gap filling CA glues at
hobby shops.

With any glue, be careful not to get it on the outer sutface of the case, as
this can cause a blemish. Also, be careful not to apply too much so that it
gets into the hinge itself.

I initially wanted to do this to have the application open initially with a
different database to eliminate the step of having to open a particular
database.  I was also trying to avoid using a macro (all were claimed
already).

I didn't know you could run it from filer.

Everybody seems to have their favorite product for fixing the dreaded
"hinge crack", but for me , plain old "Krazy Glue" worked just fine! My
crack first appeared after about 6-8 months of heavy use. I stressed
the crack a little to open it up, applied a scant amount of Krazy Glue
with the point of a straight pin, relaxed the lid to close the crack
and held it in place for a minute or so...the crack has remained closed
for going on 3 years now. The only thing "tricky" about the repair is
not to use too much glue, or it will ooze out of the crack & not look to
pretty. My repair is barley noticible. I expect any cyanoacrylate glue
would work, but the liquid might work better than the gel type...YMMV

I just upgraded my Symantec System Works Pro and I think I remember
seeing that they have a new utility that will do what Partition
Magic does.  I've used Partition Magic for years with never a
problem and I've had many problems with Symantec's programs.  I
trust PM to do it right.  I don't think it's something to avoid.  I
think it's one of my essential tools.

Last month I needed more room in my E: partition and I had plenty of
room in C: (D: is the other drive) so I robbed 2 gig from C: to put
in E:, did what I had to do, and then put 1 gig back in C: since I
like having extra on the system partition.  This is probably the
slowest thing that PM can do.  It has to move stuff around in both
partitions to make room before it can adjust the sizes.  But it only
took about 30 minutes.

The new version of PM also will do most work in Windows and not go
to Dos.  It does have to go to Dos to manipulate the partition that
contains Windows.

Having used PM 3.0 over the last three years I can recommend as
wholeheartedly as Barry does. You will have to use a separate Primary
partition for each FAT if you want to avoid problems. These Primary
partitions will not "see" each other. Typically, they would both be C:
drives selected on boot-up. To move from one FAT to the other you would
have to reboot.

To the citizens of the United States of America,

In the light of your failure to elect a President of the USA and thus to
govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your
independence, effective today. Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will
resume monarchial duties over all states, commonwealths and other
territories. Except Utah, which she does not fancy. Your new prime minister
(The rt. hon. Tony Blair, MP for the 97.85% of you who have until now been
unaware that there is a world outside your borders) will appoint a minister
for America without the need for further elections. Congress and the Senate
will be disbanded. A questionnaire will be circulated next year to determine
whether any of you noticed. To aid in the transition to a British Crown
Dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect:

1. You should look up "revocation" in the Oxford English Dictionary. Then
look up "aluminium". Check the pronunciation guide. You will be amazed at
just how wrongly you have been pronouncing it. Generally, you should raise
your vocabulary to acceptable levels. Look up "vocabulary". Using the same
twenty seven words interspersed with filler noises such as "like" and "you
know" is an unacceptable and inefficient form of communication. Look up
"interspersed".

2. There is no such thing as "US English". We will let Microsoft know on
your behalf.

3. You should learn to distinguish the English and Australian accents. It
really isn't that hard.

4. Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as the
good guys.

5. You should relearn your original national anthem, "God Save The Queen",
but only after fully carrying out task 1. We would not want you to get
confused and give up half way through.

6. You should stop playing American "football". There is only one kind of
football (proper football). What you refer to as American "football" is not
a very good game. The 2.15% of you who are aware that there is a world
outside your borders may have noticed that no one else plays "American"
football. You will no longer be allowed to play it, and should instead play
proper football. Initially, it would be best if you played with the girls.
It is a difficult game.
Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which is
similar to American "football", but does not involve stopping for a rest
every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like nancies). We
are hoping to get together at least a US rugby sevens side by 2005.

7. You should declare war on Quebec and France, using nuclear weapons if
they give you any merde. The 98.85% of you who were not aware that there is
a world outside your borders should count yourselves lucky. The Russians
have never been the bad guys. "Merde" is French for "shit".

8. July 4th is no longer a public holiday. November 8th will be a new
national holiday, but only in England. It will be called "Indecisive Day".

9. All American cars are hereby banned. They are crap and it is for your own
good. When we show you German (proper) cars, you will understand what we
mean.

10. Please tell us who killed JFK. It's been driving us crazy.

Related to this matter, recall that you can have at least three GDBs open at
once:

1) A real GDB file open in the Database application;
2) A GDB file renamed PDB and open in the Phone book application;
3) A GDB file converted to an NDB file and open in the Note book
application. The NDB2GDB.COM utility on SUPER does the conversion.

This facilitates looking up things in a different database for reference,
and also copying field contents between databases. With the use of some
macros you can actually come a step closer to having a relational database
system this way, still based on the built-in applications. In certain cases,
I just open two copie of the same database, with a different subset and
ordering active, to expedite references to particular fields.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Hi All!!! :-)

There is a very good way to stop your crack! The problem is that you
have to be "good with your hands" and be able to disassemble the whole
unit. But you MUST have a tool which you can use to compress the spring
in the right hinge. I have the actual tool (no I will not sell it- no
not even S1,000 will do it! :-) ), but be live that a screw with some
nuts of the right dimensions should do the job just fine...(not
tested).

Anyway, if you can disassemble the whole unit, then you take
something sharp, like a needle, and scratch the area around the crack
(from the inside)- just to make sure the glue have a good grip.  Then
you use a 2 component glue which becomes very hard when it's dry. Apply
this glue on the inside and make sure you still can put the aluminum
sheet (which is behind the screen) in place.

Now you take the spring which was inside the right hinge and cut off a
part of it. Here you have to be careful!!! If you cut to much, your
screen will be way to easy to open- so it will not even stay in the
position you put it in! If you cut to little, your glue will not help
much and the crack will continue to grow! But if you start at the tip
of the spring and cut it at about 100 degrees from the initial starting
point- it SHOULD be OK...

It's not easy to exactly explain how to do this, and I only recommend
people which are highly skilled in these type of jobs to do this. If you
are not, then you should contact Thaddeus Computing

Regards,

Jorgen Wallgren

P.S. As you probably know by now, the problem is that the spring load
is to heavy. Once it's lighter, the problem is solved.

Off to Mail Boxes Etc. this Sat AM.  COD for $150 even.  You
should have it on Tues. or Wed.  I will insure it for $200.
I don't think UPS picks up on Sat. so it will probably be
Wed.

The Picturebook is a good choice.  Be sure it has parallel

It was the Mob....the Mob got JFK elected and Bobby as AG turned around and
prosecuted them.  Ted Kennedy and others apparanetly know exactly who did it
but have elected not to pursue the matter.

(P.S.  I live in Massachussetts and am paifully familiar with the

Being new to the list, this is interesting information to me.
My 95LX says "Insert card for drive B:...." when I make reference to B:,
indicating it *is* behaving like a PC with single floppy-drive.
I assume only being able to recognise a single slot is another limitation of
the 95's version 1.0 controller. :-(

BTW, how does the "DoubleSlot" adaptor work on the 200LX - does the palmtop's
socket have a second set of "Card-Enable" signals besides the normal ones,
which the adaptor reroutes passivly to it's own sockets? Or is
there some "clever" circuitry in the DoubleSlot to produce the required enable
signals?

If the 100/200LX controller has the "untapped" ability to access a 2nd slot,
is there any room internally to fit a CompactFlash socket (electrically
compatible with PCMCIA, I think)?

If you use PDU.COM as a POST/LX plug-in to handle your SMS,
it could happen that you have MIME encoding and automatic line

happen, that POST includes a linebreak where you didn't expect
it. The new version of PDU ignores this linebreak, whereas the
old version refused to transmit this SMS and exited with

I have read messages about tweaking Filer.ini , but my 200LX does not have
Filer.ini at all.  This is strange.

I would like to create Filer.ini , which could take care of opening files

Would be grateful for some examples of Filer.ini that could do the

By the way, on your #2, there is no need to rename the file with a PDB
extension in order to open it with the Phone app. Phone opens GDB
files just fine.

That utility creates some aspects of the ADB file, but not the whole
thing. What you now need to do is to take an existing ADB file (or
create an empty one) and import the apptx.aodiftems into it.

Moving on TOPIC.
If you happen to find a copy of the Oxford Reference
library version 1 it has a DOS version
of IBM's BookManager Read product. (Its the ISSC free
reader version that is product linked.)

I've found I can setup the engine on a pcmcia card and
then copy only a book or two from the CD-ROM and hand
edit the path and it works fine on my 200lx.

The CD contains the Dictionary, and the Revised
English Bible, complete works of Shakespeare, a couple
of books of quotations and so forth.

Very nice. It makes me want to find a copy of the
Ellis
"New Bible Library" The second edition that has IBM
and
ISSC listed as well. I should be able to do the same
with it.

Well, it works perfectly in Epson LQ mode with my Ericsson MC218 EPOC palmtop
which certainly does not run WindoZzze.

The BJC-80 can be set to Epson LQ mode by switching it on and holding the
power button in until it has beeped nine times. There is also a DOS program to
adjust the settings. I would have preferred a row of dip switches though. I
know I'm successfully setting it to LQ mode, as I can print from the MC218
which does not support the BJC native mode.

This isn't really an option, as this was supposed to be a low budget project.
If I do decide to replace the BJC80, I will look for something with better
photo printing abilities. The BJC80 isn't bad, but it's not quite good enough
as my photos turn out slightly striped. It's only noticeable close up, but I
know there are better printers out there.

I suppose it will be a bit of a challenge to find a compact photo quality
printer which will run off 12V (the batteries in my boat) without use of an
inverter, has an IrDA-port and will work with both my MC218 and the HPLX as
well as my Toshiba (I don't need IR from the Toshiba). Oh, and it has to be
cheap too... Any of you guys know of a really good photo printer which has an
external power supply rated at 12V or less?

Actually, this is probably a better option than the built-in Ir-port of the
Canon, as I could place the dongle next to the computer, rather than hold the
computer up to the printer. Will the dongle work with any printer?

Thanks, I'll check it out.

I suppose my next option should be to get the RS-232 to Centronics cable for
the HPLX to see if I can print via cable to the BJC80. Anyone know where I can
get one? Preferably in Norway, or failing that at least in Europe. What do
they cost?

I do the following when sending SMs: My standard line length in PE is 76.
When writing an SM with pe, I have a Macro which sets this value to 1801
- this way I don't have a line break problem _and_ I can see (through the
line length indicator in pe) how much chars are left.

G=FCnther

1 With a value of 180 instead of 160 I avoid a line wrap when writing a
little bit more than the allowed 160 chars. In that case i rework the sms
saving space and then I don't have to reformat the message using pe's
reformat (which asks "Really reformat").

Nope. it is a small snap on that attaches to the the
printer's parallel port. No cord. So you still need to
hold the computer up to the printer.

> Will the dongle work  with any printer?

I don't beleive so. It draws its power from the
printer. I tried one on a Epson Stylus 800+ and it
turned the printer off. Alos didn't work on a
deskjet 500 or 550c.

Here it is:

#2300=3D#c800#1474#1c0d#0231#0938#0b30#1c0d

It's just a macro in pe, so you have to press alt+h each time when writing
an SM. I don't know if there is a way to have post/lx macros execute
commands in PE.

I am trying to retrieve mail on my HP200 from a S35i GSM phone with
Goin'Postal.

Unfortunately, as soon as the connection is established (CONNECT 9600
appears on the screen), GP returns to the status screen and the
connection is closed a few seconds later.

Steve Lawson suggests a DCD line problem, but I have already tried to
change the init string (with AT&C0\V0) without any success.

Note that (with the same settings) :
- Goin'Postal and a regular modem works,
- Others communication programs (even Nettamer) work with the S35i.

Any Idea ?

If anybody is looking for a Rolodex Rex, the German electronics
shop ELV seems to have new units in stock. Their online store
is found at www.elv.de and the items are:

 Stock# 73-325-58  Rolodex Rex with docking station     DM 129
 Stock# 73-349-79  Rolodex Rex without docking station  DM 109

The latter one is less than US$ 50. I just ordered one and will
report if it works with the 200LX as soon as it arrives.

Unfortunately, I lost the link to the Rex upload software which
someone from this list is/was developing, so I would be grateful
if someone could post the details again.

Subject:      New beta of LXgFTP, and source code
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

LXgFTP is a freeware FTP client for the HP200LX palmtop with a gui or
graphical user interface modeled loosely after the Filer application. It
uses the wattcp stack.

I have done very limited testing on this version, 0.97. If a feature
worked on a couple test servers, I moved on. DO NOT ASSUME that LXgFTP
won't crash and take all your files with it. This is a major rewrite over
the last released version, 0.91. Over half the code has been changed to
some extent, but the modifications will make future updates much easier,
and allowed a number of new features:

 - Longer file names, and names with spaces are handled (mostly). (The
   display is still limited, but the full name is used internally. There
   are some problems with some dialogs and messages. I'm working on this.)

 - Viewing remote files now works.

 - Links are now handled. (Tagged links are currently ignored.)
   - Link information is now displayed.
   - Linked files and directories can be copied.
   - Linked files can be viewed.

 - Remote directory information is now working.

 - ... and an assortment of bug fixes (and additions probably).

A few features are temporarily disabled.
 - Remote directory does not sort with directories first.
 - When tagging, the selector does not automatically advance.

NOTE: Most servers display file information in a UNIX like format, but
some use a more DOS-like format. LXgFTP should work with both, but my test
case servers for the latter have dissappeared, so I have been unable to
test this with the modified code. If you know of any publicly accessible
ftp sites that use other than the UNIX-like format, please let me know.

The last stable version of LXgFTP was 0.91. If you haven't tried LXgFTP
before, I would recommend downloading it from the site below. If you would
like to test the latest version you can download it at
http://www.technoir.nu/lxgftp/ . Bug reports and suggestions will be
appreciated.

The source code is also now available although it again needs a lot of
rewriting and reorganizing. Ok, it's a mess ;-) but since you never know
what might happen, I finally decided to put it out there as is just in
case.

Cheers,
Mike Kopplin

AFAIK GP does not support IrDA connection. I don't think you will have
a chance to use your GSM for download.

The WWW/LX from www.dasoft.com is said to be the only software that
allows IrDA connection - I use it daily.

As I need a multi-accounts / multi hardware profiles (GSM+Line modem) /
multi ISP e-mailer, GP suits exactly to my needs...

You may need to dig about a bit in the modem bit of the phone.  I'm not
familiar with the S35i, but I take it that it has the modem.  You might try
using DataComm and manually going through the setup and dial sequence using
AT commands.  Real modems usually have an S-register that gives the cause of
the last call closure, even if it is limited.  It might tell you if you lost
carrier, the other end explicitly closed the connection, or your 'modem'
dropped it for some reason.  The phone may support things it does not
document, use the manual for a different modem to see how to interrogate S
registers.

Have a look at whatever script file you are using in GP to log in to the
ISP.   You can try emulating it by hand.  I think there is also a debug
option that you can add to the script file- if you've registered GP and got
the manual it's in there...ah yes my script for logging into Compuserve
starts with the word 'trace' on it's own.  Thats shows the script run.
However I find I have to video the screen to capture what happens, as it
goes by too fast.

Try using other file operations on those files, like renaming, using attrib
to tinker with the hidden settings; try editing the file and saving it.  You
may find an operation that will make the files deleteable.

I'm using www/lx and the S35. You can maybe get the test version of www/lx
(limited to 16K data transfer) to make a another test (additionally to
nettamer).

I have AT&FX3+CBST=3D71,0,1 as the init string, which opens up an ISDN
connection (which makes the handshake much faster).

Maybe you can set up www/lx, where you see where it 'hangs'. I discovered
that when one of my providers changed his hardware, I couldn't establish
connections with my 14400 exp modem anymore, but I could with my normal
Elsa Microlink on the desktop. With the 200lx and www/lx, it actually hang
during lcp handshaking. Also, my 'fastest' providers does authentication
within ~2 seconds, the slowest takes about 10 seconds (to verify my
password). Maybe there is a too harsh timout in goin' postal=3F Did you test
with one provider=3F

If you don't get a solution, write to the list again, maybe I can set
up goin' postal on my machine. Daniel, did you maybe try it=3F

Stan,
    I'm not sure what the fix is but I think I know what the problem is,
your port speed.  I uses my 200LX and DataComm to configure Cayman routers
all the time, but I use a port speed of 9600 which works fine with the
Caymans.

Not at the same time. That's why I'd probably go with the macro. FnF1
for {Database}{Alt}FOC:\DATA\work.gdb{F10} and FnF2 for yada yada
play.?db as long as you know in advance which files you'll want. If you
don't, your options are to play with Filer.INI or to get a faster machine

DEL C:\? will delete all files with 1-character file names. Need to make
sure that there is only the one.

You could also try doing a batch file to explicitly empty and remove your
@DAT directory, or use a FOR loop to cycle through the ?DAT directories
with the RD command.

Hi all, good monday morning

Further on how to duplicate
the NOTETAKER, DATABASE and/or the PHONE BOOK
icons and paths in sys aps so that I can have
two of each?

The situation is actually that I have categories
of DBs as .CDB  .MDB  .SDB  etc.   So instead of
opening these latter ones in GDB or PDB, I'd like
to open them under its own icon.

Thanks for replies so far, a faster machine would help.

I agree with Jon's suggestion of playing with deltree (carefully) to see if you
can delete the oddball file/directory.

Another solution is to pkzip the entire c: drive, then purge it ( deltree /y c:\
),  and selectively pkunzip the directories you want to restore.

I tried that, off course. It works perfectly. Most of other communication

I have looked at www/lx but not yet tried it. As I said in another
message, GP is more close to my needs.

Not tried this one. I don't think it is relevent to my problem, but if
you say that it works, it is intersting (I tried only the ATB29
documented string).
And don't forget that ISDN is provider dependent..

I tried with several providers, I have the same results. And, with my
line modem, it works perfectly with 19200b(modem) - 9600 (s35)

I don't seen connects logs, but as Steve Lawson confirmed it, it is

> Daniel, did you maybe try it?

BTW, I seen on Daniel's web page that, for his custom cable, he connects
the DCD line to another (DTR if I remember). Is this line connected on
the siemens-made cable ? In mine (not a siemens), it seems to be not
connected...

Here is an entry type from my filer.ini that I haven't seen anyone
present yet.  Used in conjunction with Buerg's LIST, I find it
extremely useful for viewing, searching, and even reading text files.
For example, I have the entire FDA regulations for medical devices as
text files on my 200LX, and use this technique to quickly look at
various pieces.

Launcher
txt=c:\utils\list.com %
doc=c:\utils\list.com %
cfg=c:\utils\list.com %
asc=c:\utils\list.com %
pas=c:\utils\list.com %
c=c:\utils\list.com %
h=c:\utils\list.com %

LIST is great for *quickly* displaying and searching text files.

Hi

In text-mode we can zoom as known and scroll with the

key-table with exkey.ini, but it doesn't work.
{Alt+Up}={Menu+Up}
{Alt+Up}={Menu}+{Up}
Both lines are ignored. Is there another way to come

=3F=3F I don't know how the situation in France is, but in Germany every
provider has modem and ISDN lines and the same way to set up parameters.
Maybe I misunderstand you. I just use the ISDN line when dialing via S35
to use the dramatically faster handshake.

But I wonder why it worked with different software... But when it gets to
hardware, I have to shut my mouth ;-) Maybe Daniel can help.

It is my belief that Oswald did not have the shooting skills or the
intelligence to pull off anything.  Ultimately, since it was the mob behind
the killing of JFK, they used Oswald to make it look like  a russian or
cuban plot.

Another solution may be to change the file attributes.

You can't copy from Rex to the HP200lx directly.  There are several people
who have wriiten routines that allow you to use the rex on the hp200lx.  I
can't find who they were but they do exist.

Does anyone have an HP200LX serial cable they'd be willing

Have you tried using wild cards, such as "del ?" for the smiley-face?
Another possibility would be to try one of the old PC Magazine utilities
such as CO.COM or DIRMAGIC (DM.COM), where you can highlight a file in a
list and delete it. I can e-mail you CO.COM if you can't find it elsewhere
(try Simtel.net).

Well, that is not quite true.  In fact, the easiest possible task is
to just copy the REX from the card to the HP200LX and back.  The kicker
is that we're talking about a raw binary format that is special to the
REX card.  Just copying binary REX data back and forth, I have been
able to read and write both REX3 and REX5 units.

Now, *interpreting* the data and actually using it in conjunction with
the HP's built-in PIMs is another matter.  I have written a program that
lets you store your HP200's PHONE book data to the REX-3's CONTACTS
section.  There are some limitations, but it does function.  I'm still
working on the capability to get appointments transfered.

I doubt I will ever get the REX-5 format figured out, unless someone
subsequently releases it.

Greetings, fellow list-members...

I'm sure this is a question that has been submitted numerous times.  I'm =

I have a 200LX, and am having little luck finding a leather case where I =

exclusively to owners of Palm Pilots.  Nearly every salesperson didn't =
know what to do with my Palmtop, looking at it with the mystified and =

After doing a quick online search, I came across one retailer that sells =
cases made specifically for HP Palmtop models (www.mrpalmtop.com), and =
the prices seem very reasonable. =20

Can anyone speak to the usability and quality of these cases, and/or =
point me to other viable options?  I'm looking for something that works =
well in business settings while providing some protection to the =
Palmtop.  Thanks in advance for your attention and response.

VANITY.COM translates numbers into words and words into numbers

You may use VANITY to check, if your phone number translates to

VANITY runs on all DOS and Windows platforms, including the
HP95LX. Code size is less than 1 KB, but it's output can be
several megabyte, if you translate long numbers.

But don't be frightened, output only goes to the screen,

VANITY.COM translates numbers into words and words into numbers

There are also web sites that will do the same thing.  I don't remember the
address, but I came accross a site that did it for free recently.

I have tried to format a Kingston 16MB CF (with Kingston pcmcia CF adaptor)
in my HP100LX. I was unable to do so. However I could format a 4MB one.

Is there a limit on the size of flash and CF card ffor use in a HP100LX
?  This info is not found in the instruction manual.

Thanks.

I'm going to be a 2MB 200LX owner (read newbie) soon, and definitely
I'll upgrade it to double speed plus either 8 or 32MB. However I'm still
not sure if I can connect it to a network. I red the HPLX.NET faq, and
it gave me a "warm & fuzzy" feeling that it somehow can.

My home network consists of a Linksys router (running DHCP) connection
to the Internet through cable modem. Within the firewall I have both
Windows (NT & 2000) and Sun Solaris. What I want is to connect over
TCP/IP to get my email, download newsgroup, and copy files to/from the
Windows machines.

I know the Accton Ethernet card is the one to get, but beyond that, the
faq is not very clear. For example it is not clear that the enabler
mentioned actually comes with the card or not, or where to find the
palmtop specific driver. Can someone on this list who has actually done
it give me a hand.

Thanks,
Barnaby

Oh yes it was me that were going to do a test. Remember me transferring
the phonebook with notes to the Rex? It was so slow.. I will try to get
time to do some more testing.

Good to hear. How about Notebooks. That is what I wish for christmas

The Xircom guys are not willing to help you at all?

Btw have you seen the specs for the new Rex..it looks really cool. It
has a touch sensetive screen and newsreader..

Unfortunately, the Palmtree Case of soft leather is no longer available.
It was a perfect size, had an outside pocket and an inside pocket and
zipped around the top about 1/3 way down both sides.  This one fits
nicely in an inside breast pocket of a suit or sport jacket.

There was an outfit in Canada that made a very nice HARD leather case
with a swivel belt loop.  I imagine if I searched very hard I might find
the invoice.  The owner had an hp200.  I had him make me a custom and he
added a bit more depth to the bottom to hold two extra AA batteries!

The palmtree case is starting to show its age after 6 or 7 years, I'd
guess.  Maybe more.

Is the Mr Palmtop case available or viewing on the web?

But you can read the card?  The 100 is slightly quirky or different
when it comes to recognizing some cards.

Oh, wait, you might try using d:\bin\fdisk100 to setup the card and then
follow that with a format operation.  If that fails - You might try
finding a laptop and formatting it there then try it in the 100.

I have the accton 2216-1 card.  I got it on ebay
for about $40.00.
The following is from my batch file that brings up
my ethernet connection at work.
These programs you can get on www.palmtop.net

lxcic   ver 2.0 i believe.
lxen2216 0x66
dhcp  this writes out the following bat file ip-up.bat
call ip-up.bat   this sets variables used by www/lx which i bought.
cd\
cd w3
www.exe isp_ether  www.exe is www/lx and isp_ether is a config for e
                    network card.

that is as far as i have gotten.  i have not been able to map to nt
network drives.

hope this helps.

Questions:
1) Are you able to connect to the Internet using www/lx over your Ethernet
connection?
2) Does www/lx support email attachment?

If you have yes to both questions, that means at least I can email files to
myself, right?

3) I heard of NFS software for the 200lx (XFS), is this supposed to allow you
to mount network drives on your 200lx?

Regards,

I also use an Accton card with my LX, both on my network at home, and at
work.

Yes to all three questions. You could also use WWW/LX's ftp client to
transfer files.

Checking the archives, Dave Sargeant and Mitch Hamm both talk about using
XFS180 to connect to NFS servers and map the remote drives on the palmtop.
By the way, haven't heard from Dave for a while. Is he still around? The
networking FAQ could really use an update.

Another option for connecting to the windows systems is at lxmnc.hplx.net
if you have IPX/SPX configured on your systems.

Or of course you could run an ftp server on your windows systems.

Cheers,

I liked the Euro pundit who declared our recount anxiety as
"electile dysfunction".

And also the one that warned that if an alien landed now and said "take me

Just downloaded Buerg's LIST ver 7.7a from the Simtel site.  Was pleasantly

I tried unsuccessfully using Filer.ini to open txt and doc files with

That was Jay Leno...he had a nightmare that an alien came up to him and said

I tried a 32MB Kingston card which worked fine in my 200LX in an
100LX. It didn=B4t do anything! Another brand (Kodak Picture card)
worked flawless in the 100LX. There is no size limit, just
incompatibilities.

So long,

I don't know who can provide you with a cable. I think Daniel H. here
at the list has at least scetches about the pin layout of the serial
port and instructions to make cables. But then you would need a plug
for your Siemens GSM.

That's exactly what I do with WWW/LX - automatic setting of hardware

I bought a second hand boxed 2mb/DS 200LX about 6 months ago, and it came
complete with a "Hewlett Packard" leather case.  Please see
http://www.post1.com/home/teosb/lxcase-1.jpg and
http://www.post1.com/home/teosb/lxcase-2.jpg for the photos.

The protective case will be good for travelling with the LX, but too much
of a hassle for daily use.

A fellow palmtopper is seeking advice on connectivity using
Nokia 5160 with AT&T Wireless Service.

What can be done? Used?

Is there a way to just connect a modem to the Nokia (via the
cable) and use the Nokia as "phone line"? There are
conflicting inputs from Nokia and AT&T and Compuserve, the ISP
of that person...

Any and all advice is appreciated.

(this lady will be out in Tempe, AZ for 2-3 months, apparently
in a location where there is no phone lines, and wishes to use
cell phone to connect.

Thank you for any info you may provide.

Yes, I could read & write Lotus 123 files on the formatted 4MB CF card.
Thanks for the suggestion on fdisk100 and formatting on a notebook (I don't

I hope that this is the Rex that works with the 200LX, but I'm not

and report to the list then.

that reveals the question, if you use the correct phone number
to access your ISP through GSM. In general, you cannot use the
same number as with landline connections. Ask your GSM provider
for the correct number. In Germany you may only access very few
ISPs through GSM, unfortunately none of the cheap Call by Call
ISPs.

Another reason, why you cannot connect, could be, that your GSM
provider does not allow for data calls. That problem existed in
Germany for month. You could only connect to the internet in
some regions of the country, because they used different
software in their base stations. I've been to France in January
and was not able to get a data connection with any of the
French GSM providers. But 11 month later...maybe.

If you manually dial the phone number you want to connect to
on your S35, you should hear the modem sounds. But that has no
meaning at all, because you were setting up a "speech
connection", which has nothing to do with a "data connection"
which is, what you set up, if you let the modem dial.

Note: Using a GSM phone to acces the net is not just the use
of a GSM modem instead of a landline modem. It is a completely
different thing on every level.

To clarify, it already will convert ordinary text files and save them
into the memo section of the REX.  I think you're asking for the ability
to read HP200LX Notes files as well.  That shouldn't be too hard, just
will take a little time.  I'll schedule that for right after the appts.

I have nearly given up on them.  All indications are that they have no
interest in releasing information.  I will say that most of my communication
has been with Starfish.  Obviously they don't speak for Xircom (is it now
3-com?), but the indication is that I will not get any help.

No, but a co-worker recently bought a little rex-like organizer.  It has
a neat butterfly style folding keyboard.  When he showed it to me, I
immediately recognized that the software was based on Rex.  The screens
were almost 100% identical.

Subject:      problem with my Accton 2216-1 Card
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT

hello networkers,

I had problems to get my palmtop connect with a Win95 network, and I
sent my card to a friend, who had successfully connected to her windows
Network.
She found that my card did not work, but hers did.
the diagnose program ACCTEST.EXE she sent me, tells me that in my card
is a ID-checksum error.
My dealer sent the card to the austrian dealer for warranty exchange,
but they sent it back because they found no problem with the card.
My request to the european support was answered like this:

----------- snip -------------

Subject : A simple way to identify the version CIS of EN2216.
Caused : It doesn`t support win95 osr2 with our en2216 pcmcia adapter
in
early  manufactured period .

Solution:

Procedure :

          1. Boot from dos.
          2. running accopen.exe in wfw311 directory from our provided
          disk. 3. running debug utility (if you have install dos in
you
          hardisk) 4. -d d400:0

 FF FF 17 FF 03 FF 49 FF 1.6......R.0.2..........

  If have R.0.2 this version support win95 osr2, if R.0.1 version it
  doesn`t support Win95 osr2.



2. Update CIS

If EN2216 is having a old CIS . The  customer need to update . Find the
attach file of CIS . Before update a CIS , your customer should read a
readme  txt file . The sytem which is use for  CIS update ,should be a
INTEL 82365 PCIC compatible PCMCIA controller .

(See attached file: en2216cis.zip)

---------- snip ---------------

I am a bit confused now, because how can a old CIS (whatever it is)
return a ID Checksum error.
Maybe one of you has more knowledge how to find out if my card needs to
be replaced or if there is a simple firmware update possible.
Those who own a Accton EN2216-1 could you please test your card with
ACCTEST.EXE and tell me what is the result?

I put the program on my homepage where you can download it if needed.

TIA,
Werner

Maybe because the CIS (Card Information Structure?) does not quite follow
a standard which Win 95 OSR2 does, or vice versa? anyway, it doesn't
surprise me that some revisisions fail to work with Windows, for whatever
the reason.

It sounds to me as if the suggestion you got from Tech Support *was* a
firmware upgrade. Just make sure you run it on a computer with a
compatible PCMCIA adaptor. The one in the LX is not compatible with the
Intel chipset, IIRC. Any portable (laptop) should do, probably.


Cheers,

Hi:

  I regularly use an 80MB SanDisk CF card(with PCMCIA adapter), so I
  don't think your problem is capacity. Can you format it in a Win
  Laptop & access it? The only problem I had with CF cards was with my
  DigiCam(EPSON PhotoPC600) which didn't like my TDK 32MB card, so I
  went to 16MB SanDisk.

  I have used:

  - 10mB SunDisk (SDP-10)
  - 16mB SanDisk CF (SDCFB)
  - 32MB TDK CF
  - 80MB SanDisk CF (SDCFB)

  all with no problem, although, I can't remember if I formatted in the
  LX or Win Box.

  Cheers...AJKind

I use a NICHOLAS builders add on pouch number 407, available at any
builder supply store (that big Fred Meyer in Beverton probably has it.)
It isn't what you are looking for, but you should check it out because it
is one strong container for the 200LX.

There is a Nikon Coolpix Users Group mailing list on Topica.  You can get
information on subscribing to the list from
http://www.topica.com/lists/cpug/ or the website for Chris Rosa, the person
who set it up, at http://wander.org/cpug/.

The Coolpix list has been too quiet for the last couple of months.  I don't
think I've seen anything since late September.  Maybe we just need some new

I'm selling a 20MB ATA Type II flash card that I recently bought from Scott.
For whatever reason, the card doesn't work in my 95LX, but it should work in
a 200LX. (It works fine in a Toshiba laptop, so I know the card is OK.)  I'm
asking $30.00 plus $2.00 shipping.

I do not know the specs of the 5160. But I do know the specs of the
Nokia 5110.

The 5110 does _not_ contain a modem. It needs a softwaremodem to be used
with a pc. That means that you need Nokia Cellular DataSuite.

> What can be done? Used?

Install Nokia Cellular DataSuite. Connect the cable to the pc(which must
run Windows 95 or better)(better is not = Linux :-)

Then get data enabled at you cellphoneprovider. But first check if the
Nokia 5160 can be used for data with the NCDS suite.

No..see above.

Check http://wwwnokiausa.com and see on the specs and accesories for
the Nokia 5160.

I hope I could help..

It is so nice to be mobil. I connect with Hplx and the 6210..but I
guess you know that :-)

Can you send the unit back to Scott?

No, it wasn't the mob (a.k.a.: the Mafia), it was the One-Worlders
(consisting of the Illuminati, TriLateral Commission, etc.) who are in
control of the Federal Reserve. They did it because Kennedy was going to
mint a coin equivalent in value to the national debt at the time, pay
off the debt to the Federal Reserve Bank, revoke their charter (thus
eliminating the Federal Reserve), and return to the gold standard;
thereby eliminating one of the One-Worlders' major mechanisms for
controlling the United States.  At least that's what I've heard! ;-)
(Actually, I don't think there's any way that we can really know the
truth about it, at least not in this life.)

It is my belief that Oswald did not have the shooting skills or the
intelligence to pull off anything.  Ultimately, since it was the mob
behind
the killing of JFK, they used Oswald to make it look like  a russian or
cuban plot.

I also have a new Accton 2216-1 card that I can't get to connect to my
Win95/98 network.  However, I don't see  ACCTEST.EXE  on the disk that came
with the card.  Where did you find this?  Did you ever get your card
connected ?
I sent a message to this list last week asking for help connecting to the
network, but so far have not received but one reply and am still working on
the problem.  The HPLX.NET faq was very helpful in general, but I'm still
lost.  If you get your card to work, please let me know.

Did you try to use a file manager such as the built-in one or Volkov
Commander to delete the files?

I think the problem is the file name, right? Or do you get a message
that thie file is read-only or something like this?

I tried GP before I bought WWW/LX -- i.e. a few years ago. But of
course without any cellular phone. Sorry.

But what another list member wrote is true and maybe your problem: The
Siemens phones are hard-wired to 19200 baud between the modem and the
Computer. You won't be able to connect both with another speed.
That's the only idea I have so far...

I took a look at them and they are the 256kB models. If I recall

This Rex also has English menus etc., so there should be no difference
between these ones Chris tested and these ones ELV sells.

I'll buy one! :-)

This is probably a FAQ but:  How come there is so much discussion
about Goin Postal and WWW/LX compared to other DOS email clients
like Pegasus?  Are there obvious disadvantages with Pegasus?

Well, it appears that we are getting the Pressario 5000, and according to
COMPAQ, the package cannot be modified with Windows 98.    It stays with
Windows ME.  :-(     :-(
My wife is happy about that (because it's the latest), but I am not, as you
can imagine, so here are a few more questions:

1-Originally I simply intended to create a simple second partition, not a
bootable one.   For that I had a few options.   But with WinME it looks like
a bootable second partition is my only option if I want to run my DOS and LX
related software, and if so Partition Magic is my only choice.   Is this
correct?    FIPS (which someone here recommended) doesn't appear to handle
that, though I have not finished reading the documentation.

2-How do I connect my hplx with XFINDER to WinME?  Is it not possible?   :-(

3-Will 16 bit Windows software like GDBWIN and Transfile and Intellisync run
under ME? (I could not find this information on the Web).

4-Am I correct in assuming I can still unzip and store DOS files in ME, even
if I cannot run them?   What is the best sync solution available with ME for
the hp200lx?

5-Has anyone attempted to downgrade to Win98 from ME?   The idea is to
preserve the Windows programs the PC  comes with, instead of erasing
everything and starting from scratch.  I am not sure how helpful the
included CD would be with a downgrade.

Any and all suggestions welcomed.

Domingo

The difference is, that with a GSM data connection, the analog modem on
your side is not the phone itself, but there is a real analog modem in
the switching station of the GSM provider which is connected to the
modem of your ISO. Then the data that this modem gets from the "mdoem
noise" is sent directly AS DATA via GSM to your phone and thus to your
palmtop.

That's the way a data connection via GSM works.

If you dial the ISP's number with a cell phone and hear the modem
noise, you are alling directly the modem of your ISP, without going
through the modem of your GSM provider. But your cell phone cannot
handle this noise, because it has no real modem built-in. For the
palmtop it just looks like a modem, because it is a "virtual" modem in
conjunvtion with the modem in the GSM provider's switching station.

That's the background.

Yes, I was aware about the 19200 baud hardwired setting of the S35i.
GP is well configured at 19200. It dialogs with the S35i, and
establishes a connexion. Then this is not the problem...

As Steve Lawson (the writer of GP) said. It is probably a DCD line
problem. Do you know if the Siemens branded cables have the DCD line
connected to another line ?

I'm not sure if it will work with 200lx, but I do know that Windows me will
not work with activeysnc, a dsl line, or a usb port.  I've already heard
enough to insure that I will stay with Windows 98.  I know the 200lx works
with Windows 98, I'll wait before upgrading.  Maybe you should consider
getting a celeron processor system with Windows 98 (which are available for
under $1,0000).

OK This has been driving me nuts for a couple weeks, perhaps one of you
M.D.s can help:

According to Dorland'd Illustrated Medical Dictionary, 25ed
(W.B. Saunders Co.,1974)

- a MORON is defined as possesing an IQ of 50 to 69

- an IDIOT has an IQ < 25

- and an IMBICILE has an IQ between 25 and 49

Now it stands to reason that since by definition, a NORMAL IQ is 100,
there must be some definition for an IQ > 70 & < 100, but I can't find
it. My psychologist colleagues have been no help either! ( I looked up
WinCE users, but there was no entry in the book ;-) )

Can anybody come up with the definition?

I just feel STUPID (no formal definition that I can find)

Al,
This is too easy. The answer is a Florida voter!
No, seriously, the term you are looking for is
"developmentally disabled", laymen term would be
"slow". Forrest Gump would be in the IQ range of
70-99. Hope this helps.

It apperas that you _do not_ need to set up a separate DOS partition. There
is a patch that you can download from
http://www.geocities.com/mfd4life_2000/ that will allow you to boot to DOS
by pressing "SHIFT-F8" at bootup, or to set up a batch file menu to allow
you to boot either WinME or DOS.

There is another, similar-looking patch at
http://www.overclockers.com.au/techstuff/a_dos_me/.

I don't have WinME, so I cannot verify that these patches work, but I think
they should.

I just tried it with my hp200lx and a S35i connected with a cable built =
with
assistance from Daniel Hertrich.

Settings:

COM1
19200 Baud
AT&F

I connected to ATTGLOBAL.NET and did download 22 messages. I also did
sent 6 messages.

I also tried ATB29 in order to use the ISDN dialin. It did work fine
too.

There wasn't any other setup necessary or required.

It was working just fine.

That's typically American. Legally, until January, Bill Clinton is your

has been elected.

When opening read.exe, you have the option <pick>.
I have pick.exe in the same directory, but nothing happens. What am I
overlooking?
(Pick.exe works fine on its own.

The Canadian manufacturer of 100LX/200LX leather cases, mentioned yesterday
on the List, is at:

http://www.dxmarket.com/casetech/dir/5.html

Prices shown are in  Canadian funds, so subtract about a third for U.S.
dollars. They take credit cards and ship to the U.S. (and possibly
elsewhere).

I am not affiliated with them, and don't own one of their cases (though I'm
thinking about it).

I've always thought that a handy alternative to the HP serial cable would

just a guess but they probably don't run on a 100/200LX for one reason or

Which version of Pegasus did you use=3F And which 'dialing software' (->
tcp/ip stack, dialer, ppp) did you use=3F Or does dos pegasus come with its
own dialer=3F How much diskspace does it use=3F How fast is it=3F

And, to speak with the words of Tony, "Are there obvious disadvantages

Oh no, I know Pegasus runs on the palmtop.  I personally haven't done
so, but others have.  We used to use Pegasus PMAIL at work back in the
DOS days before the 286 was invented.  It is available in a Windows
version, but I personally found the DOS version much more easy and
powerful to use.

The trick is to refer to an "exclude file"

Here's a sample from one of my batch files;

c:\util\pkzip %1 *.* -x@c:\zip.exl

and the zip.exl file contains;

*.zip
*.app
*.bak

I think one obvious disadvantage of some of the other email clients like
Pegasus, or PC-Pine, is the amount of drive space they use. For Pegasus I
think it is about 700-800k, and PC-Pine was over 1mb. WWW/LX with Post,
Goin' Postal, and LXTCP with PNR all take up much less room.

Sorry I thought the question was regarding Goin Postal.

Anyway, a dialer like pppd works here anyway.

Mike:

Since you seem to know about the PC-Pine program, could you comment on
this?  I have been looking for a *reader-only* version of Pine or Elm
for some time, that can run on DOS.  I'm not after actually using it
to send/receive e-mail, just to read standard e-mail folders.  Have
you seen such a program before?  Either palmtop-friendly or otherwise?

Thanks,

-Chris Lott

I could not get Transfile to run under Windoze 95 or Windoze 98...I would
assume Windoze ME would have the same problem.

I believe PNR will read standard Unix format mail files.  You might
need to run PNRTI first, though.

Yes, that's what I seemed to recall. In the meantime I received the
software and ordered the Rex, and I'll test this and report here as
soon as my Rex arrives.

Subject:      ANN: 200MNU version 3.0

200MNU is a menu driven application launcher for the HP200 Palmtop PC. It
displays a user defined menu on top of your topcard  or another background
picture (see the screen capture) allowing you to pick whichever program you
want to run. Menu items can call further menus to an almost unlimited depth.

200MNU has 3 modes of operation:

- Outside of SysMgr: For large DOS applications which will not run under
  System Manager, you exit system manager (MORE-APPLICATION-TERMINATE) and can
  run the programs. Once outside System manager, the blue keys are all active
  and will call the System manager application related to that key by
  restarting System Manager, so for example, pressing the FILER key will
  automatically launch System Manager and go straight into FILER. Also in this
  mode, if an alarm becomes due, 200MNU can automatically act on the alarm by
  going into System Manager, which will then display your alarm message.

- Under SysMgr: you can use 200Mnu to collect similar applications into folders
  or call the menu system to select the DOS application you want to run. Once
  you have selected the application and run it, you can either return directly
  to system manager (close the DOS BOX) or return to 200MNU.

- Under MaxDos (called from System Manager), 200MNU works similarly to under
  DOS.

200MNU automatically recognises under which system it is running and each of
the three operating modes can have its own independant set of menus, or you can
have one set of menus no matter under which system you are running.

200MNU runs applications with almost NO MEMORY OVERHEAD AT ALL. Once  you
select the application you want to run, 200MNU exits and calls a batch file
which runs your application. Thus there is a dos memory "cost" of about 40
bytes which is what you have to "pay" for running a batch file! This means that
200MNU is also useful for installing and uninstalling TSR programs (such as
LAPLINK) as well as running a series of programs in a specific order.

200MNU supports calling applications using DOS redirection <> and piping |

200MNU uses a derivation of the Palmtop Application Library to display user
friendly menus, using the same large text fonts as the built-in applications.

200MNU uses a text file to define the menu system, which makes defining and
modifying menus fairly simple and straight forward (IMHO).


WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 3
- When starting up, in MSDOS mode, 200mnu can optionally check if the time
  has been reset and open a dialog box to modify the time. Also you can set
  whether you want to allow charging of rechargeable batteries.

- You can decide not to have a background picture or allow 200mnu to choose at
  random from a selection of background pictures.

- When you want 200mnu to call a batch file to run your program, the batch file
  can be written as a section in 200mnu.ini.

- You can set the graphics display mode for each program in 200mnu.ini. All the
  Hp200LX graphics modes are supported.

- Multiple main menus are supported by calling m.bat with a menu name parameter

- 200MNU can return to system manager when an alarm goes off.

- Under Application Manager, 200mnu can select an item once and return or stay
  active.
--------------------------------

A couple of weeks ago I sent a new version of 200MNU (version 3.0) to the SUPER site for inclusion in the software list there, but I havent seen or heard anything from them. So I have opened up an web site on geocities for 200MNU
(and some other stuff which I will put there soon) at:

Yes, PNR should do it. Read the pnr doc, or the pnrfaq, it's in one of
those. I looked for something onetime and found another program that will
work with unix standard mail files, reread.exe
(http://www.inti.be/hammer). It does run on the palmtop, maybe a little
slow. It does a lot besides just read email though, and it's probably
overkill for that purpose. Never found anything I liked, so for the few
times I've needed to read one, I just use less. Any text editor or viewer
will work. The standard unix mail folders are just text files. You don't
get a list of Subject lines, but I just use the search function to find
what I need.

Actually, it shouldn't be that hard to write a program that would mimic
the reader only functions of Pine.

I tested the same settings, it don't works.  :-(


It seems to be the proof that there is something about the cable...

Does anybody have an "official" Siemens cable to test with ?


Daniel, do you know the page
    http://www.gsmhacking.com/html/misiek/siemens_cable.htm ?

It shows a diagram which have two differences between yours :
- It uses a Max232 (the same that my cable uses).
- The line 1 (DCD) is not connected (I don't know about my cable, as
  almost all the cicuit seems to be glued by something like epoxy).

I think we are near to find the problem ....

I use Transfile under 95, and have used it under 98 and NT before at work.
What is going or not going to work under Windows can be a toss sometimes,
though I usually can make something work if it is supposed to work, given
enough time.   But when I upgraded my modem, my sound card stopped
working.  To this day I don't know why.

I believe Big Bill put a curse on my system (not the one going out, the one
on top).

I have had erratic success running 16 bit Windows programs under the
latest Windows.   That, combined with Gates intentions to force people to
upgrade to perpetuity, is the reason for my question above.

After you have used pick.exe to select a text file, the next time when you
open read.exe the selected file will appear in the Pick list.

Actually, instead of using PICK to add one file at a time, it is possible
to just edit the READ.CFG and use copy-and-paste-then-amend to add more
text file names to the Pick list

Supposedly the mean for the Stanford-Binet intelligence test is 100,
the standard deviation is 15.

Over 130, I believe, is considered genius.

So there are no clear labels, other than "subnormal", "normal",
"above normal" for those in the range of 70-130.

Please note, mean =B1 2 std.dev includes approximately 95% of the population=

Using DBView from SUPER may be a better way to read-only view a DB
rather than using the LX's builtin DB engine and using up one of your 3
open DBs rule.  Also, the LX DB engine will touch the file's timestamp
which I find annoying if nothing was changed.

Carefull folks, these (non-funny) 'jokes' will generate a flame war that
most of us don't want and the list doesn't need.

(Subject change)

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving here in the USA.  I'm very thankful to be able
to attend this year as I just ended a week's stay in the hospital having
my Gal Bladder removed.  I am part of the @5% of folks that can't use
the new Laparoscopy surgical method so it was a major operation for me.
I'm sore and will remain so for a couple of weeks I've been told. I also
have 5 new holes in my stomach that have been stapled shut (yes, metal
staples, not stiches).

Thank goodness for my LX; I was able to play games, read, etc during
those times I felt well enough.  It sure beats staring at the ceiling!

Well he can give orders but any 'long term' policy won't carry much
weight.  Un-friendly nations would be ill advised to think we are

Ihave run Transfile under Win 95, and currently run it at work under Win NT 4
and at home under Win ME, No hassles at all!. I also run Lxtools for DOS under
Win ME, as well as Laplink from the connectivity pack.

But it really does more than just touch the timestamp. A file consists
of a bunch of data records, and a lookup table with pointers to each
record. When a file is open, the LX holds the lookup table in memory,
so the file that's on the disk will be re-saved with no lookup table.

If you were to make changes, then it can save time by adding new
records onto the end of the file, and not have to shift everything
after it in the file (the lookup table must be the last thing in a
file if present). Also, this way the file is closed out at all times,
so if there is a crash, you won't lose your data - it can rebuild the
lookup table.

Then when you close the app, the lookup table is written onto the end
of that file. Ever noticed how the file size gets significantly larger
when you close an app than when it was open?

Aware that there is no modem in the 5160. Since she has no
5110, nor access to determine the differences between the two,
I think it will confuse her to talk about 5110.

I looked above. There was no information why the connection
cannot be made. You only talked about the NCDS. Is this what
you mean? There is no way to have a cell-ready modem in the
palmtop and connect with a cable to the Nokia and use it as a
"phone line"?

This is not necessarily relevant, but in days of my analog
phone, I used a cable with an Apex Cell-ready modem and made
calls using the cell phone as a "line".

Hi friends,

does anyone know if a tool exists that can do the following:

In a batch bilf ot should replace a file name given in a parameter with
its FULL file name, i.e. including the path to that file.

For example:

I am in the directory C:\_dat\html

and I call

hv.bat foo.htm

then %1 in view.bat is first "foo.htm", but should be replaced with
"C:\_dat\html\foo.htm"

That would be a great help for all HV users, because then you could
call HV directly with any HTML document from any directory, if you have
HV.EXE in your path variable.

TNX!!

I tried your steps on a color map of Bangkok copied from

(default settings) in IrfanView, convert to greyscale, 'sharpen' image a
couple of times, then Decrease Color Depth to 2 Colors (b/w) , but the
resulting b&w map is not so clear.

Any tips on how to improve the quality of the converted b&w map?

Is the Rolodex Rex the same product as Xircom Rex ?  I thought Xircom took
over from Franklin.

Seems that the 256kb model is the same as the original Rex 3 (cannot enter
or edit data on the Rex card).

Hopefully the tool to enable sync'ing of the Rex in the HP200LX will work
with the Rex 5 too.

I use Timeline 1.0 that can be used on your desktop and on your
palmtop at once.  The only disadvantage is that it doesn't export
to MS Project which is what most people use.  Almost bought MS
Project for DOS on ebay but got called out of town unexpectedly
and missed the deadline on the auction.  Ah well, another chance
will come up I'm sure.

I have tried using pjt2001 the project manager that is system
manager compliant but I haven't been able to figure out all the
calculations that it does so it is little more than a way of
creating a gantt chart of items from the to-do applicationanyone
out there who might have had some success on this?.

Another way of skinning the cat:  buy a later version of Timeline
for DOS that might export to an .MPX format so that I can still
liaise with MS Project users.

HTH

Programs that would convert from and to were mentioned. Project

Is anyone using  MS Project or another program that will convert

I have a small DOS program written in C that I created years

easily modified to do the type of thing you need. E-mail me the

my program and send you a copy.

I have Timeline for DOS up to Version 5.0.I run TL 4.0 on my
200LX. I also use MS Project on my laptop, but have never tried
to move data between the two programs. Due to the differences
in Task Information detail between the two programs, I doubt he
transfer would be complete or painless.

Unfortunately I don't know where you can get a copy of Timeline
for DOS. Have you tried Recycled Software?

Hello fellow list members

Sorry about the test post. I had subscribed to the list with pegasus
and the list server was rejecting my posts from other email programs.
Apparently pegasus handles email addresses differantly. Anyway, I am
try to setup the Startac 7868 phone with my 200LX and am having
problems with WWW/LX. The phone setup seems to work with Datacom ok.
When the phone is connected thru com 1 I can type at and get an ok and
I can also dial out and log onto my isp alright. But when I try to run
www/lx I get alot of modem not ready errors, then when it starts the
lcp negotations it stalls about halfway through and just hangs up with
a "lost connection to server". WWW/LX is really slow during the
negotation so it could very well timing out. I have put slowmodem=1 in the www.cfg file
but it makes no differance. I have the speed in www/lx set at 9600 and
am using atx2 for the intialization string. I know I can connect at
that speed with my ISP since I have connected with a 2400 baud modem at
times. I am also using a handbuilt
null modem which according to a previous post matches the pinout of the
black HP null modem, pins 2 and 3 swapped and the rest straight thru.
Does anyone have any suggestions that might help me get connected?

John

3.50 briefly. Pegasus itself is a powerful email program, with a
simple listserver built in. What I didn't like was all the disk space
it used I think it
was about 1 meg. Plus the menu screens were hard to read. But coupled
with pmpop (to retrieve and send mail) and dosppp it made a nice
email tool if you don't mind loosing all the disk space just for
email. I use it on my desktop where I can afford the disk space.

Absolutely not.  Unless I somehow get the format of the data, the Rex5
will be unusable with the HP, except for the oddball case where you just
want to backup and restore your data (as a binary image of the Rex memory).
Other than that, I have no way to interpret the Rex5 data.  For some reason,
they went to a completely different storage format.

Subject:      StockChart on the LX and Desktop

Is anyone else using StockChart on the desktop? I set it up with
Lotus 2.4 for Dos and DataPerfect. It works very well. With a color
monitor you can see the charts in color which makes them much
easier to read. In fact,
I installed 2.4 and DP on the palmtop and use those instead of the
built-in programs. It makes it alot easier to transfer information
back and forth between the desktop and palmtop. Plus, since I use
Lotus 2.4 I can use expanded memory and open very large charts. When
I used the built-in lotus anything over a couple years was too big
and I'd run out of memory. StockChart is a very nice market analysis
tool for the LX which also works nicely on a desktop.

Is this 1 MB just Pegasus, or with pmpop and dosppp=3F And can this
diskspace be lowered e.g. by deleting help files=3F

> Pegasus Mail: The mailer for DOS

Is this set automatically by Pegasus=3F And a maybe thumb question: Is the
dos version available as freeware or will one have to get an old licence=3F

This actually sounds very interesting.

Oh yes, you're right! Thanks! That is indeed a good solution.

Since the serial port specs of the palmtop are different from standard
RS232 (not 12 V signal level, but significantly less - abt. 6V!), the
circuit has to be different also. In the schematics from Misiek, the
power for the whole circuit is taken from the RS232 port of the
computer. That's not possible in our case, because the palmtop doesn't
provide enough power on the port. I tried this and it is indeed not
possible.
Additionally, you would need this 78L05 thing which is at least as big
as a standard transistor, so the whole ciruit would be larger than
necessary.

My circuit is powered by the phone.

I don't know exactly about the DCD line. I connect it to +3V, as well
as DSR and CTS. Since I don't know exactly what DCD does, I simply
tried with and without connecting it and somehow I found that the
circuit only works with DCD connected.
But maybe it also works without DCD connected. I don't know for sure.

Curtis, I'm sure you're right and the behaviour is useful if its a r/w
db.  For a read only db the file timestamp is a useful indicator of the
age or 'version' of the db.  (If the file old should I look for a more
recent version?)

DBView allows me to read DBs in a read-only mode which meets my needs.

Not sure about winME but there is a trick for re-installing win98
without disturbing the programs. Of course you need to start from the
DOS prompt (use the DOS Luke...) so you would need to boot from a floppy
that would give you a command prompt. You need to be able to get to your
OS set-up files so if they are on CD you need CD drivers on your boot
disk.
Get into the directory with the set-up files and type:
setup /__
The key is the /__ switch which will install the OS without affecting
any installed programs.
As I recall the proper switch was /nd but it's been half a year since I
did this. If I can find my notes I'll confirm.
The only problem I can think of would be if some of the preinstalled
programs need winME instead of win98. That and depending on my memory
for the correct setup switch........

Well, it appears that we are getting the Pressario 5000, and according
to
COMPAQ, the package cannot be modified with Windows 98.    It stays with
Windows ME.  :-(     :-(

5-Has anyone attempted to downgrade to Win98 from ME?   The idea is to
preserve the Windows programs the PC  comes with, instead of erasing
everything and starting from scratch.  I am not sure how helpful the

Any and all suggestions welcomed.

I can't use Transfile because it requires a mouse.  The 200lx comes in on
the same serial port as the mouse.  Tried to move the 200lx to another
port....never could.  The computer has several serial ports but the 200
connectivity pack would only work on the mouse serial port.

If datacom is working, then your null modem is probably fine.

I am definitely far from an expert, having gotten the Motorola Timeport
phone last week.  I, also, had initial troubles and I think mine were
associated with Software Carousel (SC) and possibly Buddy and a locked
(or at least, on/off again locking serial port).  I had similar problems
with accis and the timeport.  I used some lx tools for tweaking/toggling
the serial port and still it remained closed!!!  And I was able to also
use datacom but not these DOS based programs.    I finally did get
connected and downloaded some messages using both accis and www/post.

So just some questions to think about and maybe answer so that others
will know more about your situation.  So where are you using www/lx?  In
SC?  Under Maxdos, under sysmgr?  Are you using NOfiddle to work around
the serial port in dos issues?  I also futzed with the init string and
finally settled on AT&f1 instead of the no dialtone one.

There are some other folks using this combination who hopefully will
help.

By the way, what do you think of the Startac?  I am beginning to wonder
about its facility as a web-phone and particularly for email since it
contains no ability to store email addresses.  I gather Nokia and others
have vcard capability which does store more contact information than
just phone numbers, giving the ability to use stored email addresses.
And I gather they also have the ability to "type" out incomplete words,
like D&A's quick/lx, helping to deal with the limited keypad.  Ah, well,
I digress enough for this message.

Good luck futzing around, I'm sure you will get the Startac up.

Mime-Version: 1.0

Folks, the best 200LX case I ever found is the one I bought during a
trip to the US a couple of years ago. I have been using it since then,
and although I've looked at many others (even bought a few), none
comes close to this one for fit and quality.
It's made by JanSport in the USA, and is called a 'Security Ticket
Holder'. Their catalog number is 44216.
It has a main pocket for the LX, a zip pocket in the flap which holds
three, maybe four CF cards, another zip pocket that I use to hold a few
bits of documentation, and a front pocket which holds a full-size PC
card or modem.

You'll see it here:

http://www.jansport.com/scripts/displaypage.pl?44216&JanSport

I have no idea of the current cost, but mine was a bargain. Don't know
if you can buy it from JanSport, but if not, I'm sure there are heaps
of dealers.

I have no connection at all with this company, just a very happy
customer. I'll probably buy another one soon for my backup LX

Cheers, Roger

I'm attempting to write a script (.lcf) file in Datacomm to send commands to

command ok in the script. I get the return message ok, and that is when I
get the following message:

"Timeout: waiting for ( ) string in script (.lcf) file"

On page 26-12 in the 200LX manual, there is limited information on the
process of writing script files. I have read and read, but see nothing about
placing ( ) in any part of the script. I do use the braces { } for the info
coming back from the router, and the 1st line comes through o.k. The next
command I would use is the enter "| " command, that I tried putting it in as
such ( | ) and I still get the timeout message.

Any help or pointing me to a website where I could get this information
would be appreciated. I tried "Brad's Palmtop Page" ..."In the Palm" and he
has a link to a "Script Files in Datacomm," but unfortunately that link goes
nowhere.

Hi, can someone suggest a battery operated external modem that can be

I'm not looking for a pcmcia modem because ...
1. I want to use my CF memory card
2. I don't want the modem to drain my HP's batteries
3. Plan to use it in conjunction with an accoustic coupler

I puzzled over this a while ago, but didn't get to an answer. I was trying
to use the TRUENAME function in a batch file, and it gets very messy. I
looked at it again today and came up with a nice clean solution. It does
involve an external program called Strings from PC Magazine, but it is
only 14k and does a number of useful things in batch files. You can
download it at ftp://ftp.zdnet.com/pcmag/1992/1222/strings.zip

I put strings.com in a directory in my search path along with the
following batch file.

REM hv.bat
@echo off
set fname=
if ""=="%1" goto runhv
strings fname = TRUENAME %1
:runhv
c:\apps\hv\hv.exe %fname%

The third line clears fname from previous. The fourth line skips over the
TRUENAME stuff if you start hv without a file. The fifth line puts the
TRUENAME of the file you specified into the environmental variable
fname. The last line runs HV with the fullpath filename. HV is not in my
search path, so I specify the full path for it. If it was, it might
conflict with hv.bat.

Hope this helps,
Mike

I have a belt case for my 200LX them.  The leather is rather stiff and =
sturdy.
It has a belt "loop" with a metal attachment.  The actual palmtop case =

I am pleased with it

Congrats on getting it working. I like the Startac so far. The phone
itself is very compact and has a very nice battery life. I was very
impressed with the web capabilities (its probably easy for me to be
impressed though since I've been using an old 550 flip phone for the past 7
years:-)), but am not using it for reading
email on the phone itself. You are right about that it is very limited in
that aspect. I mainly need it for the phone part, the web part is just
an added bonus. I use the financials mostly although getting the
weather and plane flight info is nice. As far as WWW/LX I am
running it on Software Carousel. I have post set up by itself in one window and
www/lx and hv set up to run in another window on hdm. The serial port is
untouched by any tsrs that I am using that I know of. I don't even turn
it off in system manager. By the way I just tried lxtcp and it ran just
fine. Logged on well using the phone and downloaded all my email. Its
odd www/lx isn't working. I changed the initialization string to
at&f&c1&d2 which is what I used with lxtcp but it made no differance. I
am using pap logons to my isp. Thanks for the encouragement.

Pegasus itself can be trimmed down to a bit under 600k I think, once it is
configured. Still a lot compared to the other options though.

Pegasus Mail is free. Version 3.40 is available on SUPER.

I have a Nokia 8810 and a 96 meg DS HP200LX which I use with WWW/LX and
SETCOM. In total I have 9 virtual palmtops defined - one is dedicated
to POST/LX. The extra memory is provided by a TREMM swap file (~8meg).

The autoexec.bat file includes nofiddle and lxstat to preset some
hardware :

%lw%:\tools\lxstat.com B Nicad D contrast 19 Serial off T 1
%lw%:\abc\abctsr.com
%lw%:\quick\quick.com /3 /l6 /m3 /o1c0d /r2000
%lw%:\tools\lxcic l
%lw%:\tools\nofiddle.com

I load Buddy only in the SysMgr session. Everywhere else I use Stefans
autocaps.

SETCOM helps me detect hardware configuration of online connection and
automatically sets init string, port and tel no. The init string is
ALWAYS AT&F (for PCMCIA and cellphone). Only in office and hotel
landline connection environments do I have to use a AT&FX3 in order to
get an immediate outside line.

That's it :) Easy (g)

If there is need I can expand more. Cellphone connection works fine
here.

If you tell Transfile to use another serial port can you connect to it?
I dont remember how you tell the connectivity pack which port it uses, but I
am sure that it is modifiable.
IIRC I originally had it working with COM2 and now I work with COM1,as my mouse
is now on a PS2 port.

I have found battery operated modems hard to find. I know of 2 solutions.

1. There is on the internet a site which explains how to modify the PALM
modem so that it will work with the HP200LX, but you need to be a bit of
an electronic handyman to doit.

2. I have found that some external modems will work on a standard alkaline
9V battery. I use an external Modem from Australia called "Modem98" and when
neccessary I just plug a 9V battery into it and download my email that way.
It is obviously limited but works in a pinch. I also made a small adaptor which
allows me to plug the modem into my HP200 power adaptor, converting the -12V
from the HP adaptor to +8V for the modem, so that at work when I need the
modem I can use it without having to carry around 2 wallwarts.

No, it wasn't the mob (a.k.a.: the Mafia), it was the One-Worlders
(consisting of the Illuminati, TriLateral Commission, etc.) who are in
control of the Federal Reserve. They did it because Kennedy was going to
mint a coin equivalent in value to the national debt at the time, pay
off the debt to the Federal Reserve Bank, revoke their charter (thus
eliminating the Federal Reserve), and return to the gold standard;
thereby eliminating one of the One-Worlders' major mechanisms for
controlling the United States.  At least that's what I've heard! ;-)
(Actually, I don't think there's any way that we can really know the
truth about it, at least not in this life.)

It is my belief that Oswald did not have the shooting skills or the
intelligence to pull off anything.  Ultimately, since it was the mob
behind
the killing of JFK, they used Oswald to make it look like  a russian or
cuban plot.

Hi friends,

you won't believe it:

Today my Rolodex Rex arrived (ordered at ELV for 129 DM incl. Docking
Station).
It came in a package that is 55*33*12 cm large!!!
That's approximately as large as a desktop computer. Such a package for
a little CMCIA card (ok - with docking station) -- that's really
typical German!

I'll now begin to test Chris' software.

Hi friends,

the Rex that ELV sells for 129 DM incl. Docking station is indeed the
Rex-3 (256kB) model. It works with Chris' utility. Thanks to Chris for this
feature!

Everything seems to work fine, except that the German special
characters aren't coded correctly. But that's not very important, since
there aren't too many of them.

Another thing I realized: Sometimes the time and date settings of the
Rex get lost when synchronizing. But sometimes not, I cannot see a
pattern here, but I'll see if I can find one.

Chris, do you have a clue when you'll continue your project and add
features like synchrinizing the appt database and the notes database??
8-)

BTW: To make the confusion a little bigger about the maker of the Rex:
On the card itself is written: "Rolodex Electronics". On the box where
it came out it is printed with "Franklin" in the lower left corner and
on the box itself is printed "Xircom". ..... :-/
Hm..
In Germany there is a proverb that says "Many cooks ruin the mash"
(sorry folks - this was a probably bad attempt of a direct
translation of "Viele Kvche verderben den Brei") ;-)

nope....tried switching trasnfile and connectivity pack to every serail port
(available or not) and nothing.  Transfile only accepted serial port 1
although it would not use it.  Connectivity only worked on port1 with the
mouse.  Never tried moving the mouse...it was easier to loose transfile.

Are you using the black 9 nine null modem from the connectivity pack?
Does the Nokia come with a serial cable? The Startac has a special
connectivy
cable which is supposed to connect from the propreitary startac
connector then directly to the computer com port.
Since we have to use the HP serial cable to connect to the com1 port
I'm wondering if its inherant null modem connections may be messing
with the DTR, dsr and cts, rts signals since if the startac cable
swaps pins 4 and 6, and, 7 and 8, the
Hp cable swaps them back if you use the black null modem to connect the
two cables. Does anyone have a pinout of the Startac
connectivy cable? I haven't been able to get any info from motorola.
Actually does anyone know where to get a custom cable built? It would
be nice to bypass all this serial to null modem to serial bushwa and
have a nice short cable that connects directly from the phone to the LX.
Shier used to, do they still make custom cables?

Your welcome. It might not be used much because the HPLX specific mail
software also collect news for about the same amout of disk space that
Pegasus just uses for mail. But then who knows?:-) Maybe nobody likes Pegasus.
Some people might think it too hard to set up.

I often carry my LX in a case hung on my belt when walking to meetings.
I find it a safe and convienent way to bring it with me.

I didn't think it was a negative fashion statement and I probably don't
care anyway.  I'm getting old enough that function matters far more than

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

Hello List Members

I now have my startac working with WWW/LX. What I ended up doing is
swapping the wires on pins 4 and 6, and 7 and 8. So my null modem is:

connector 1   connector 2
pin 1          pin 1
pin 2          pin 3
pin 3          pin 2
pin 4          pin 6
pin 5          pin 5
pin 6          pin 4
pin 7          pin 8
pin 8          pin 7
pin 9          pin 9

So you can see this differs quite a bit from the black 9 pin null modem
from the connectivy kit assuming the posts on the pinout have been
correct. I am using the HP serial cable and the Startac connectivy cable and
connecting them through a null modem. It works great!!! Connected right
off the bat with no modem not ready errors and no stalling at the lcp
negotiations. HTH someone.

Hello List Members

I wrote a battery charging program for the 200LX, basically its a TSR
that replaces the system manager charging program with one where you
can set the length of charge time, a battery voltage level to enable
charging and it also watches the voltage to see if it stalls out and
terminates charging then. It is quite a bit like batset but is more
advanced. I wrote it because I wanted a TSR charging controller that
would charge 1600 mAH batteries without me having to reenable charging
halfway through the charging cycle. But it works with all sizes of
batteries. I sent it to super to be included but they haven't done it
yet and I don't know when they will. Would anyone be interested in
checking it out? The entire file with the document is about 10k zipped
(the program itself is only 2k) so it would be a simple matter for me
to email it to anyone who's interested. I am curious to see what people
think of it. It has been fully debugged already. Please reply by email
if you would like me to email it to you so you can check it out.

I can't use Transfile because it requires a mouse.  The 200lx comes in
on
the same serial port as the mouse.  Tried to move the 200lx to another
port....never could.  The computer has several serial ports but the 200
connectivity pack would only work on the mouse serial port.

Transfile for some reason will not recognize (or use) com ports 2 3 or 4 on
my system, same with connectivity pack.  At least the connectivity pack will
use port 1, so i've stuck with the connectivity pack.

I don't know exactly if these data formats are only suitable to be
processed with the attached binary, or if it is a general description.
But maybe this can be helpful for your further development.

Maybe there are also other software packages for linux which are
distributed with source code from which you could derive more
information about the Rex's data formats, even the formats of the
Rex5..
The trex-0.31.tar.gz link on the same web site seems to be a utility
for the Rex5. Even if the source is not attached, meybe the author is
kind enough to share information...

good luck! ;-)

I always had a problem running a mail program off the a: drive.
But whe i moved it to c: after the ram uprgrade,
The problem went away even at 56K.
I dont think the CF disk is fast enough to keep up with

Unfortunately. I discovered that last year trying to use a very little

True. But for your information, I am thinking to make a custom cable
based on yours schematics) including a 7805, in order to mix in one
cable communications and battery charging (using the modem's 9V AC/DC
adapter)..

> I don't know exactly about the DCD line.

It indicates the Data Carrier status. This line is ON as soon as the
other modem has responded, and goes off when the communication is cut.

> But maybe it also works without DCD connected. I don't know for sure.=


It is not realy needed. Its purpose is only to inform about the status
of the line. Then some softwares use it, some others don't.
Goin'postal seems to not live without it...

Daniel:

I haven't visited this particular site, but I'm familiar with the Linux
package you refer to.  These programs indeed talk to the REX, I believe
over the serial port using the docking station.  However, the "format"
descriptions for this package are simply the file format that the Linux
program uses as input/output.  While they obviously bear some resemblance
to the actual Rex format, they are of very little help in decoding the
internal Rex binary data format.  For some reason, this detail is still
being held *very* closely by the Xircom/Starfish people.

I'm not sure that is anything I can do ... if the REX has the capability
to display these characters, perhaps I could do some kind of mapping.  But
if not, I'm helpless to solve this matter.

I would have thought it would loose time *every* time you run my program.
I have still not a clue how to solve this problem.  Well, one tiny
spark of an idea, which I will look into when I get time.

Speaking of time, I'm hoping to make some during the holiday vacation
to work on this more.  Right now, I am at a standstill while waiting to
buy a new flash card (more on this in a new post).

More as I make progress.

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

My palmtop recently began acting up.  I have a 32MB 2x 200LX with a
Simple Tech 160MB flash card.

First the C-drive appeared to be corrupted... it disappeared one day.
Mack tells me he has seen this happen with battery swaps when the AC
adaptor was unplugged, although I had not done one recently.  So, I
go ahead and re-initialize my 32M C drive, and start to initialize the
Software Carousel program.

However, about this time I began to have weird lock-ups which I tracked
to corrupt files on my A-drive (the flash disk).  I have done repeated
CHKDSK and found all sorts of crosslinked and bad files on my disk,
even invalid directory entries.

I have come to the tentative conclusion that my C-drive corruption
probably came from one of my corrupt A-drive programs gone amuck, and
that my flash card has gone south.

Before I go too far down this road, however, I thought I would ask the
list if anyone has any another plausible explanation of this set of
circumstances.  I suppose that the flash disk could indeed be good, and
just some hardware on my 200LX is bad, for example.  Is there a hardware
diagnostic program, such as were available back in the XT days that I
can run on the HP to check out the hardware?  (I do have the check program
from Times2Tech that checks the 32MB of extra RAM).

Any way to salvage the ST flash, if indeed it is going bad?  We used
to have SYS drivers you could load that would keep track of bad disk
blocks.... anything similar available for flash disks?

FYI, I am at the point where I have an apparently good C drive 32MB,
but cannont run SC without things locking up (because, I think, the
SC files and/or other utilities I run from autoexec are corrupted).
I can boot clean and most of my A drive is accessible, although a
good bit of it is corrupt.  When I try to run chkdsk /f, I get the
error message that there is not enough room on my disk to finish
saving all the file????.chk files.

Any advice or suggestions appreciated.  Unless someone has some
revolutionary solutions, I'm getting ready to get a new flash disk
(SanDisk this time).


Thanks,

-Chris Lott

While I got that nice case from the Canadian Company (very nice guy I

Where is your modem?  Is com2 enabled in the bios?  I recall having to

As long as we are discussing the Rex, does one need a docking station on
a desktop or laptop if the computer has a pcmcia slot?  Or will the
normal rex syncing software work with the dock only.

This is, for the moment, ignoring Chris' hp software.

It could be that just ONE PROGRAM is corrupt and that might have
affected the entire flashcard, slowly eating other files and programs.

You might back up what you can salvage and then try reformatting the
card or just erasing everything on the card first, then try it again.



Good luck.

The Rex will sync very nicely in the PCMCIA slot of the laptop, or desktop
if there is one.  No need for the docking station, which will need a COM
port.  I am using a Rex 5.

Do check out http://www.rex.net (require Flash 5 plugin) - there is a Rex
emulator

or http://www.xircom.com

Hi John,

I would like to test out your battery charging program.

Presently, I am using Peniel Romanelli's Charge-It! battery charging
controller/monitor.  Peniel has been rather quiet lately.  I am eagerly
waiting for his updated program.

I also use a 416 byte BAT.COM from Jorgen Dybdahl's Charging, which can
show the state (in percentages) of your main and backup batteries in the LX.

you have to give more info, ie. are you trying to run it on the LX or under
PalRun or PalPc on the PC/laptop?

have you tried the up-arrow and <enter>? The <pick> "button" is hidden
sometimes when the file list is full

i use read/lx daily and have encountered zero problems even running under
win 95 which refuses PalEdit

It is always good to hear from someone who uses the LX as a life saver. It
helps with depression to write down your feelings. The LX can be a companion
for the lonely, like caring for a pet goldfish, hamster or ferret. It can
take you to places while you're stuck waiting for whatever. It can make you
forget - and it can give you hope.

The real thanks goes to the author of Strings. I've seen batch enhancers
before, but this is the only one I've decided to keep on my palmtop, just
because it does so much, in such a small size. I looked back in the
archives for questions about batch files. Strings would have solved many
of the tricky problems people had.

Mike

Subject:      OT: Is there a secdev-like program for NT?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I'm using the secdev (sevure device) program on the LX to create a
virtual drive F: which is securely encrypted, and that's where I keep
my personal data. Secdev is a DOS program, so I don't think it will
work under NT (will it?).

Is there anything like secdev for NT? I tried PGP, but it requires
that you unencrypt each file before it's used, not like a whole volume
that you can enter a password to get access to.

Also, will secdev run under Win95? I'm tempted to try it, but I'm a
little concerned about getting in over my head.

thanks,

I only just downloaded this. For some reason I thought it might be the
same as the gnuish or unix strings.exe, but, oh no, this is like the
"Holy Grail" for DOS batch file users!!

What a find!

I doubt it.

PGP for Windows used to come with a program called PGPDisk that worked
very much like secdev. It creates virtual drives (even show up in the
Device Manager), and encrypted partitions stored in files assigned to
those drives. Seems to work well as well.

The current version of PGP for Windows doesn't include this utility (but
it can be bought as add-on). You can still get the older version of PGP at
the International PGP home page:

http://www.pgpi.org/products/pgpdisk/

There is apparently also a hack to get PGPdisk working with the latest
release of PGP, but I didn't investigate.


Cheers,

Laust

doubt it nt doesn't like programs accessing the hardware directly and it
sounds like secdev might do just that

in theory your nt machine should be secure just because its running nt no?

Hi Rexers,

could it be that if one syncs the HPLX to the Rex with Chris' hp2rex
utility with -cm option (contacts and memo), and writes the resulting
file to the Rex, the calendar and the todo list in the Rex are blocked?

I cannot open them anymore.
Before I synced, it opened everything without problem, but said "empty"
or "no entry" or somthing like that. Now I'm not able anymore to only
open them...

If it's external you'll be limited to the LX's serial port speed which
means connections at less than 56k.  My 1X 200LX connects at 14.4.

I don't know. I don't what the 95LX uses for bios memory or interrupts.
I only have the 100LX/200LX developers guide. Only if the 95LX uses the
same memory locations the bios uses in the 100/200LX. It has never been
tested on a 95lx.

Hi John,

may I publish your success story on my mobile-HPLX page
http://www.daniel-hertrich.de/mob_hplx
?

May I even publish your email address in case someone wants to know
more about the Startac?

Do you have more information that's useful here that you want to let me
publish?

Thanks
daniel

See if you can find a program called Secure Drive.  I think it is
similar to SecDev but runs on Win*.  Sine I only run DOS I have no Win*

They should just be blank.  I don't remember if they open an empty app

I can verify this.  I had the SMC swapbox PCMCIA/ISA adaptor and could
sync to my Rex just fine with the provided Starfish software.  Seems like
you could specify which device to use, PCMCIA slot or serial port (docking
station).

I'd simply turn and introduce "it" to my wife... ;)

(Reminds me of an old New Yorker cartoon:

        Two dry cleaning shops next to each other, the first
        puts a sign out front "Best Dry Cleaner in City." The
        second responds with "Best Dry Cleaner in the State."
        The first then replies with "Best Dry Cleaner in the
        country." Not to be out done, the other responds with
        "Best in the Universe."

        The first dry cleaner finishes the contest by simply
        putting a sing up, "Best Dry Cleaner on the block!"

I have leaders with more importance in my life (boss, Gov't.
officials, and, of course, the many voices in my head - and
one very demanding dog in my next-door neighbors yard), but
none are as significant to me.)

Could I get this built-in to my TV - great for watching the Sunday Morning
Shows (here in America, most political shows are on Sunday Morning) and CNN,
of course.

Wait, the best solution would be to have this projected onto my glasses -
and if it can multi-thread and positionally locate all near-by speakers it
would be nice to see a speakers head be replaced with a slowly dissolving
apple as they speak... Glasses like this would be useful in nearly all
situations, except when reading email - hmm, maybe you could bridge-in a
text-to-speech conversion tool...

If this were built in to your TV than your TV would probably have a melt
down during election season.

John,

Thank you for sending me your battery charging program.  I have read your
charge.doc file and have the following questions:-

(1) You mentioned that Charge will automatically enable charging when the
battery level is low enough.
This assumes that the LX is connected to the AC adaptor all the time.  What
if the charger is not connected and switched on?  What kind of message will
we get?

(2) If the charger is connected to the LX and switched on, what if the
battery's voltage is not at the preset low level yet?  Will your program
prevent any charging until the low level is reached?

(3) Does your program go into a slow charge mode after completion of the
fast charge cycle?

(4) I do not quite understand your formula for:-
"/vdd   Where dd is a whole number from 0-63. To find the number use the
formula .0275*V1+1.57=V2
where V2 is the desired voltage to start charging."  What is V1?

I have also never had a hinge crack on my 95LX, 100LX or my
newer 200LX. I am right-handed, but like you, hold the LX in
my left hand and open it with my right hand. Once the case is
open a bit, I place my right thumb just above the right end of
the hinge "tube" to open the screen further. To close the
screen I place my thumb on the hinge tube and press the lower
part of the cover with my index finger. The idea is to apply
torque as close to the right hinge as possible, which I believe
may reduce the stress that causes hinge cracks.

Less say you have it set to start charging at 2.40 volts. When the
batteries reach that voltage the box that enables charging in the
system manager setup program is checked and charging is enabled in the
bios. When there is no ac adapter connected there is no charging
message because it is not charging. But when you connect the ac adapter
you get the normal charging starting message that flashes across the
left upper corner of the screen. Would you prefer having a message that says
charging enabled when it enables charging?

If you have manually switched on charging thru the hot key or thru
system manager setup the charging program will not prevent charging
from starting. Basically all the program does is monitor the level and
start charging at automatically, so you don't have to. It doesn't
prevent a person from starting charging when you want because a person
may need to top off batteries

Not yet. With the larger capacity batteries the slow mode isn't really
needed so I haven't been in a hurry to add it. When I upgrade it it'll
work like the
built in charging system, fast for the user setable time then it'll
drop into slow mode until charging is manually stopped or the AC
adapter is disconnected in slow charging mode.

V2 is the desired voltage to start charging at e.g. 2.40 volts, 2.35 volts.
V1 is the rounded number ( basically rounded because charge cannot
accept decimal points) that you would use with the /v switch. I did it
this way to keep the code at a minimum. Just plug the formula into
solver decide where you want charge to automatically start charging put
that into V2 and solve for V1 round it either up or down whichever you
prefer and plug it into the /v switch. HTH

MIME-Version: 1.0

Hey 'yall...

After spending something like 5 years on my palmtop, I think I have finally found a
palmtop truly befitting to take over my 200LX. But before I make the plunge, I want to
hear opinions on my swap.

The reasons why I want to change from the 200LX to the N9110 is:

1.) Backlight!
2.) MobileData facilities without needing to worry about seperate devices
3.) UNofficial DOS support (it is a AMD 486 chipset running GEOS 3.0; a 9110 "version"
of Peniel exist there with his miniscular program size programming skills and made a
"start to DOS" addon)
4.) Cheap memory upgrades (it is based on MultiMedia Cards, now with 64Meg cards
at about USD300++)
5.) Strategic concealment purposes.
6.) A wonderful community and mailing list like the 200LX, just that the messages are
like 1/3 the volume here...
7.) "hackable" serial connection to allow for external 56k modem connections (now
that's where Thaddeus beta test pocket modem might end up in my Christmas
shopping list... :) )
8.) Way cool "netmonitor" facility on the N9110 HP and palmtop unit on which one can
tell where you are by referring to the basestation before correlating it to a locations list.

What I don't really like is:
1.) The battery life is pretty short, due to the sharing of power with the HP and the
palmtop, not to mention the battery has a chronic "looseness" problem.
2.) The lack of native applications (Database and other bric a brac are all payware...)
3.) No PCMCIA support
4.) Costly GPS support (I *THINK*) coz they have some corporate version with SMS
facilities to tell the HQ where the unit is by msging the GPS coordinates.
5.) Lack of "hackable" things like double speeding the 486-33 to a 66...
6.) Lack of Dualband 900/1800 facilities (only 900 for now, but the new 9210 which runs
on Symbian has... but I don't want a power sucking TFT screen and a weird RISC
based OS..)

Does anyone who has experience on this care to share my ideas with me? Thanks.

PS. BTW, I am still gonna keep my 200LX... Coz I got this weird model that does not
have funny screen problems at 2x speed; it stays perfectly clear with or without Mack's
driver.... hehe....

Don't do it!!! Just kidding:-). Can you tell use more about the Nokia?
That 486 processor sounds interesting. Is it a computer or a phone with
an organizer on it?

Is this really needed? I've had a backlit 200LX now for months and I
still use my non-backlit one more. While the backliting works and the
screen is nice, the HP non-backlit screen works pretty well and covers
most of the low light situations.

What is MobileData?

This sounds really interesting. 486 and Dos support. How big is the
screen?

Does it use the Multimedia cards as ram upgrades or as flash? How
popular are multimedia cards? If it doesn't use ata flash I would be
leary of it- IMO.

How short is the battery life?

Does it have a nice native phone book like the 200LX?

So pcmcia modems and flash cards are out of the question?

George McCourt in Las Vegas 800-705-8100 may still have some US Robotics
World Port pocket modems. They are 9600's and run off a 9V battery or AC
adaptor.

I'll be using one with my WWW/LX when I get time to install the program.

I don't know of a mailing list as good as this one. Talking about WinCE
is allowed here. Just put WinCE: in the suject line.
The problem with windows ce even on the newest models is it is dog slow
and it is still windows. It locks up and people loose their data. It would
be interesting if HP would come out
with a more modern version of the 200LX with color and all that. Of
course any color screen would have to work in bright sunlight. And it
would have to fit in the pocket and not a jacket pocket either. It
would be tough to get color on the power given by two standard size
NiCad or NiMH AAs.
Probably have to use As or sub-C.

It sounds to me as though these com ports might not be enabled on your desktop.
Why not start from basics. See if you csan connect to Hyperterminal or another
desktop communication program, through these ports to DATACOMM on the HP200LX.
The first stage in setting up any communication program (Transfile, LXTCP,
WWW/LX etc) is to make sure that you have a working communication line.

Check that the interrupts that it uses are not interfering with the interrupts
of your COM ports. Some graphics cards also use COM4 to control the monitor.

Nicholas, those are all good and valid reasons for switching away from the
200LX.  I changed from the 200 to a Palm V in January for some of the same
reasons (NO, the 200s are *not* for sale! <grin>).

However, if you're getting close to purchasing the 9110, I'd wait... Nokia
just announced their second-generation Communicator, the 9120.  It's got a
color screen, nicer keyboard, and other good features.

Check it out at:

Its not a problem with a backlight itself there
are problems removing the reflective layer on the lcd. The lcd is very
prone to damage and nobody would want try modifing unless they could be
sure there would be no mistakes. lcds are in short supply. I donno if thats
been solved.

You can do some simple checks:-

(1) When your PC starts, go into Setup, and confirm how many COM (Serial)
ports are enabled.  The default should be 2 serial ports and 1 parallel port.

(2) Next, after the PC boots up, go to Settings -> Control Panel -> System
-> Device Manager -> Ports
If there are two COM ports listed, check the Properties for each to
ascertain whether the device is working properly (under General), and
whether there are any conflicts (under Resources), and take note of the
address and IRQ (Interrupt Request).

(3) You would also need to check whether you have have the physical COM
port at the back of your PC, whether 9-pin or 25-pin.

The standard addresses and interrupts for COM ports are as follows:-
COM 1   3F8     IRQ 4
COM 2   2F8     IRQ 3
COM 3   3E8     IRQ 4
COM 4   2E8     IRQ 3

This means that if something is using COM 2, you cannot use COM 4 and vice
versa, as they share the same IRQ.  The same goes for COM 1 and COM 3.

In the Transfile Win200 program, you can set the correct COM port and speed
under HP Palmtop -> Serial Communications.

Hope this helps.

try.  I found it harder than normal; it took me many restarts to finally
win it.

What you may be looking for is a program called Scramdisk.  Look for it at

It cannot work in the 95LX.  There is no battery charging circuitry in it.

Hi There!

I saw earlier on this list that some of you are running MS Project for
DOS on the 200LX. I would like to know which version it is. This since
I have an old copy of MS Project 3.0- but unfortunately it's for
Windows.

Looking forward to your reply.

Thanks,

Jorgen

MIME-Version: 1.0

hello networkers,

my problem with the Accton EN2216-1 card is still not solved.
I got a mail from european support, that I maybe need a upgrade
for the card if its CIS is not yet version 2.0, but I checked the
version number with accopen and debug, and it is version 2.
already. (this is not possible to do in the HP, you need a
compliant PCMCIA slot for this)
The problem is, that loading the driver ETHPCM.DOS from
Roger Whitby's page gives an error.

"Socket Service function Error occured
Driver initialization failed."

The only hint I have is that if I check my card with the
ACCTEST.EXE I get an ID-Error message. (checksum error)
I have the impression that most drivers do not care about this,
but maybe the ethpcm.dos driver does.

My mail to Roger has no reply until now, and Accton europe did
not reply either. The mail to Accton USA was sent yesterday, so I
do not expect an answer before 2morrow :-)


If you want to check your own Accton card, I have put the
ACCTEST.EXE on my homepage.
www.qsl.net/oe9fwv/Acctest.exe

best regards,
Werner

I am trying to use my copy of LetterPerfect 1.0 (a version of WordPerfect
5.1 for laptops and computers with limited resources) on my 1MB 95LX, but LP
reports that "The program is too big to fit in memory." LP requires only
330KB, and I have more than 600KB available. I have the maximum amount of
RAM allocated to DOS as opposed to the RAM drive. I suspect that LP is
seeing the full 1MB RAM and counting that above 604KB as a negative number,
thus giving the false error.

My question is: Does anyone know of a way to set something (say in
Config.sys or an environmental variable) to make LP see only 640KB?  Failing
that, does anyone know what I should look for in DEBUG to patch LP to bypass
the memory check (say a call to an INT with a jump that I can change to a no
op)?

John and David Sergeant were the 2 people working on a physical backlight
solution (with Mack developing the hardware). John even came down here to
show our techs. Unfortunately, John, then David, dropped out of the project.
I haven't heard from David in many months. Has anyone?

The problem still is a 100% reliable, reasonable-time method, for physically
installing the backlighting.  Mack's tech claims it isn't possible.

I like that. Beta testing what I worked on designing.
No I worked on the design. Worked on selecting the transflective layer
worked on connecting the backliting board to the HPLX, deszigned it so
it could be turned on and off from the keyboard (with Joe Bufords help
in finding the right pin on the CPU). Designed a backliting
board. I had to quit because of illness. There were alot of people
involved. Stefan P. wrote the software TSR so a person could turn
it on and off. Mack B. had the final board design and was going to
build the driver board. David S. was involved in the whole thing.
Thaddeus was going to install and distribute. Shame it was canceled
because of a simple thing like removing the reflective layer. I thought
it was far enough along to succeed. I prefer both screens, the
backlit screen looks great to me. Unless there is very low light I find
it perfectly useable and the backlite makes up for times its not. What
I meant is the situations where backliting is required for me are so
rare that backliting is superflous. Otherwise I would have put
backlighting on both my LXs. Others may have differant
requirements. Unless I am using the LX in pitch dark it never comes on.

Hello Hal

I have recieved questions about my backlighting. Is there anything I
can tell them about the specifics that won't be stepping on your toes,
since you are justing looking for a method to install it? Thanks

Well since I got the go ahead, this is one process to backlight the
200LX. First you need a source for an EL panel, I used a Gunze (ELTech) cyan
panel. Next you need a souce for the 3M RFC transflective film, and the
3M diffuser or some other thin film diffusing panel. Be sure to use a
diffuser that passes at least 90% of the light. Next, you will
need Sipex 4422 or 4423 inverting chips, either 150 pF or 180 pF chip
capacitors (depending on which you use and how bright you want your
backlight and how much current you want it to draw) a .1uF chip cap and a
way to draw
and etch a small circuit board. Depending on where you want to install
the circuit board can make a professionally made board attractive, I
installed mine right on top of the motherboard but if you decide to put
it in the hinge the traces get too small to draw. A 10 mH Hitachi Metals
coil will also
be needed (others will work, the LX limits the physical size of the
coil but there are ways around it). It gets more complex, is it worth
continuing or am I just wasting bandwidth?

Is that true? Has anybody connected with a fast external modem. Since our

Well your choice. I do not need it that much so I do not miss it.

I see it differently. I almost never leave my home without my
cellphone. Therefor I want the phone to be as small as possible. But
when I have the Hplx with me I want to have a keyboard where I can type
pretty fast on with my thumbs. That is why the Hplx/N6210 is the best
solution to me. A 9110 is to bulky to put in your pocket when out
drinking.

Huh? Can dos/Palrun be run on a N9110? This is new to me.

Netmonitor is avalible on "all" Nokia phones. I have it enabled in my
Nokia 7110 and my 6210. The only "usefull" thing is to see how hot the
battery is or how many times I have opened the slider.

I do not understand. We are talking about the Nokia 9110 aren'nt we?

> 2.) The lack of native applications (Database and other bric a brac are all payware...)

I have not seen the applications that are availible to the N9110, but I
do not think that I could be satisfied in "Nokialand".

_NOT_ good.

There is a "drive" to have some Gps functions on the excisting gsm net
here in Norway. You(the phone) is plotted based on threee Basestations.
Do not knoww how accurate it will be. There are maybe other solutions
out there. The new Benefon has Gps built in.

You can not do much there..

It runs the same Os as the Revo/Revo+/5Mx? If yes it is not bad. Not
bad at all.

Well I have used a bulky 9000 for a while. Then I used a 9110 for a
couple of days. I did not  like wither of them. I felt restricted to
the built in applications and the lack "customaziation" which the Hplx
is great on.

The 9210 will be "outdated" in febryary when we get Gprs here in
Norway. If I where you I would stay with the Hplx and insted buy
yourself a small Gprs phone from Nokia (not yet realeased)

I just ordered the EN2216-1 directly from Accton, and according to them, this is
a end of line product. They don't even carry spare dongles anymore. So if you
think you might need a network card for your LX in the future, buy it now.

John,

Re (1), I think it will be good to have a message 'charging enabled' when
it enables charging, and 'charger not connected' when it is not
there.  Something like that.

Re (2), I am thinking about the automatic aspect of your program.  Am I
correct to say that if we do not manually enable charging, the charging
will only kick in when the preset low voltage is reached, even though the
adaptor is connected and switched on.

Re (3), not all of us are using 1600mAh NiMHs in our palmtop.  I am using
1300mAh NiMH, while others might be using NiCds.  At the moment, I am
comfortable with Peniel Romanelli's Charge-It! where fast charge is
followed by slow charge.

Re (4), if the intention is to find the value of V1 (rounded), then it
would be better and less confusing for the formula to start with V1=blah
blah blah

When I encounter an attachment I press Ctrl-M and let WWWLX create a
file from the attachment.  I then use SC to switch work areas and go
view the file using the appropriate tool (txt or picture).

Hal, I thought the LX serial port was driven by an equivalent 8250 chip.
I thought this older UART restricted the max serial data rate,
especially on a 1X LX, and would be a bottleneck to a fast modem's
ability to run a top speed.

Fast PCMCIA modems work because they supply their own fast(er) UART and
don't rely on the LX's.

I use external modems for most of my connections on my 1X speed LX.  I
haven't tried it recently but I seem to remenber that I couldn't take
max use of my USRobotics Courier V.Everything modem.  I now dedicate a
14.4K USR Sportster to the LX that Seems to match my LX's capability.

I second Hal's question though.  Can anyone verify or disput my
"assumptions"?

Cheers... Russ

I've checked three of my cards, all showed the R.O.2 version string. All
three cards passed all the acctest tests. Here's model and serial number
information.

Model        Serial #
EN2216-1     647046196
EN2216-1     647046064
EN2216-2     818009570

If I get a chance I'll try loading the LXMNC package and see if it works
for me.

Possible and a very nice idea, although I don't want too much bloat in the
program:-), I'm not Microsoft:-). Problem is the LX screen is so small
and most of it is used already except in dos. I could put CE on the
upper boarder though, although it might be irritating:-).

You are correct.

If a person wanted to have charging enabled all the time they could
always set the start voltage high like to 3 volts. Its possible but
why would they want to do that? If it is set high like that the charge
will never terminate.

Hmmm...the reason I haven't enabled slow charging yet is its really not
needed with the higher (over 1000 mAH) as long as the battery get a full
timed fast charge since the fast charge is pretty much a trickle charge
to them. The LX's fast charge is only 1/13C to your batteries. But I
plan on implementing it soon since with the lower capacity
like 700 or 800 mAH NiCads can use it. Once trickle charging is enabled
it'll be possible to disable fast charging and just leave trickle
charging on. I've got most of the code in.

Didn't realize that would be confusing. Thanks I'll change that right
away.

David's last post was in July I think. We sent a few emails back and forth
the end of August. Since then a couple messages have not gotten a

Same here.

Werner's problem is, that the test fails and along with that also the

Most laptops come with a recovery CD that you boot from and it
restores C: to exactly the way it came from the factory.  Well,
that's how mine works on my Thinkpad.  It ignores other partitions.

If you try downgrading to Win98 and it doesn't work out, the
recovery CD should take care of that.  I guess I'd check and see
that that's how Compaq's recovery CD works first.

I don't have much recent experience with Compaq computers (nothing
in the last 5 years) but I know from long past experience that
Compaq support says it can't be done if it's not something they have
on their list of possible things.  I've done a LOT of things that
Compaq says can't be done and it rarely took any extra effort.  But
some things really don't work.

as you have probably seen on the list, I have problems with my card.
Get the Acctest.exe program and try if you also see an error message in
the last test of three like I do.
I suspect that the card does not work with ethpcm.dos if this test
fails.

hello Mike,

thank you for doing the test, I do not know which is the serial number
of my card. There are several numbers and barcodes printed on 2
stickers on the card.
002011254   EN2216-1 1 244226-001 is on the side with the Pcmcia
Connector and
EA=0010B53F3E59             408        9951
on the dongle side.
I purchased my card in May 2000 through the Austrian dealer SMC.
If you need it I can send you my files and batch to try.
In the meamtime I got 1 message from a list member who has the same
error than I do.

I can only speak of the Pcmcia part here, I use the EXP 56k thinfax
modem and my serial speed is set to 115k. It works at this speed
although WWW gives out a warning that it might be to high.The only
problem I had was connection errors when I had the HP/LX connected to
12V with a switching power supply. The switching power supply made RF
noise on the serial line. With my homemade linear power supply I had no
problems.

For the serial port I am not sure now, if it is possible to go higher
without having errors on the serial line, but I can try tomorrow when I
am at home again to connect my USR 56K. In my opinion it is not
possible to run more than 19k2 on the DS and 9k6 on the single speed
LX. But I give it a try.

   There was a problem that surfaced when too MUCH memory was freed
up with some programs.  I don't know if this applies to you.  Check
with MEM to see how much memory is in use before trying to load
LetterPerfect.  If DOS + TSR's + etc. is less than 64k some programs
fail.  If you find this to be the case, use LOADFIX to (what else)
fix the problem.  And there is a BIOS location to show the "end of
memory" available to an operating system.  But worry about that only
if "MEM /c" or "MEM /s" shows memory above 640k available.

  Did you ever get MODE to work?

Hi all,

This error has bothered me in the past with Going Postal and has just
cropped up with Post/LX.

I use my LX, and the newest Post/LX, to access CompuServe mail. I still GET
mail (first the headers; then only the messages I select); but whenever I
try to send anything, even a one word test message, it stops "Waiting for
Hello from mail server" or similar text, then times out. It waits a long
time before timing out; so I don't think increasing a "wait" value somewhere
would do it.

I also tried checking the box for "volatile" server in the settings (don't
know if that means anything special, like a deliberate choice on the mail
server side but) that didn't help.

This is "new" with Post/LX (it used to work), so is CompuServe still
changing?

I remember reading something about the phases of change their email system
would go through (I believe they said something about phasing out CompuServe
classic ... just AOL's way of killing the good parts of a service, after
they buy it out).

TIA for any help,

--tim

PS. GP used to say something like "Polite people say 'HELO' first" (only one
'L'). I thought the program wasn't seeing the fact that I was registered, or
something, and stopped using it. If someone knows how to fix this part of
GP, that'd be nice too.

A good suggestion but if someone wanted to use the D&A freeware battery
voltage measuremnet utility it already uses that spot to put the
battery voltage.

I saw a few discussions about the Rex, and thought that this might not
be too far a question to ask.

I was impressed with the Rex's size and functions, and was contemplating
to get 1 as an alternative to my 200LX.  However, I couldn't see in any
available information that there is a calculator function in the Rex
(which I thought was a basic PIM application).  Maybe someone on the
list who has used one can comment on this.

Thanks for this hint. So your software and volt/lx will give a wonderful

Hello List,

sorry if this topic has been discussed, I didn't find anything in the
archives. I'm not able to transfer data between the 200lx and the
connectivity pack unter Windows 2000, but I can do it with the same cpack
setup under Windows 98.

Does someone out there successfully use Win2k and cpack200, and do I have
to turn on something like "COM support in dos-windows"?

Not quite - the boxes are the original ones from the U.S. with just a
little sticker on them which advertizes the German manual. :-)

By the way, I'm still struggling with the umlauts. Did you already
find a solution? I'm tempted to write a small filter which converts all
umlauts in the CSV file into their ae, ue, oe etc. equivalents...

PC software that does symbolic math (among other things).

For instance, it can differentiate x2+x+1 into 2*x+1 as well as graph and solve
equations.

Open POST.CFG (After SHUTTING DOWN WWW/LX completely!!!) and add the
following line to the mailbox section of Compuserve:

POPFirst=1

This forces Post/LX to login first into the POP3 - and thus provide the
plogin id and password - BEFORE sending email out through the SMTP Server.
SMTP servers DO NOT requires authentication, and spammers take advantage of
it by sending junk mail (by the millions!!!) ISPs close that up by letting
ONLY their customers use their SMTP servers. A way to identify a customer
is by asking them to give id and password.

Hello friends,

please help me:

I have the chance to get an used Accton PCMCIA network card quiet
cheap.

1. It comes without dongle, so: Has anyone a spare dongle that he doesn't
need anymore?

2. I don't know exactly if it is the correct card that really works in
the LX. According to the seller, there only is a P/N (part number?)
printed on it (besides "Accton" and the mandatory "this device complies
with part 15 of  the FCC rules...." and "Accton Technology Corp."). The
P/N is 146145-000 (or 148145-000, he couldn't exactly read it).
Does someone know if this is the card I need?

Thanks
daniel

Did enyone try my suggestion to solve the reflective layer with exactly
directed heat?
I suggested to direct the heat from a flat iron with a cubic part of
steel which has a ground surface exactly as large as the screen...
(okay, cubic was not the right word - it cannot be a cube for that
purpose. I mean a body with a rectangle as base, don't know the english
word for it.)

Or maybe use a syringe to inject a solving liquid in between the
reflective layer and the screen's glass at several locations...

only a few ideas

Thanks for the ctrl-M hint.

It turns out that my problem was that I was trying to view
an incomplete attachment, so ctrl-M only gave me the
"Save attachment as file:" prompt.

I had to find an email with a complete attachment to get
the "Open or Save attachment?" prompt.

(I run with a message size limit, and toplines of about 50,
and was trying to view the beginning of the attached text
file to see if it was worth downloading the entire thing)

I also don't see the Open or Save prompt if the attachment's
filename is something like "dec calendar30.doc",
I guess it only works for properly formatted DOS 8.3 filenames?

Anyway, thanks again for the help...

Buddy also checks battery voltage and displays it in Filer.  I am
constantly using this program.  It has become such an integral
part of my palmtop that it seems to be a completely different
machine without it.

Plus, it's fast, great, small, etc. I'm disappointed that TI have
discontinued the product and surprised (I mean, it can't really be that
hard to retain DOS support?)

But, I suppose that makes the DOS version abandonware ;-O

I would prefer the DOS version over the Windows version any day anyway,
since the Windows version doesn't keep the keyboard short-cuts and
generally has an awful interface (lots of mouse movement required).
Granted that was one of the early Windows versions.

Anyway, I digress, and thankfully I don't have to do anything involving
symbolic math any more :-)

The rex cannot be a replacement for the LX!
It is just a nice add-on for those of us who want either as small
devices as possible or as much devices as possible ;-) (I belong to
both groups, I think).

The Rex is a read-only device. You can transfer your PIM data on it (with
the LX, this data transfer is currently limited to the phone book and
text files, the latter go into the Memo application of the Rex) and
then you can read them on the road. If you don't use the LX to transfer
the data but a laptop or desktop (via PCMCIA slot or serial docking
station), you can also put appointments on it that come up with alarms
and you can have a todo list.
But you cannot enter data on the road into the Rex. Fur this purpost
the Rex comes with a little bunch of paper sheets on which you can
write your notes in order to enter them into the sync software at home.

Since the Rex only has 5 keys to navigate through the PIMs, there is
also no calculator included.

The latest REX (REX-6000?) has a touch screen, and does include a calculator
function IIRC. Check out www.rex.net to be sure.

That is one tiny touch screen though...

I have often wondered about this myself, applied in general to many
PC applications, especially those originating in the DOS world.  When
I think about it, maintaining a program to work in DOS is a miniscule
fraction of the effort required to make the same program work in the
Windows environment.

It would seem that a company selling a software package that was
available in *both* Windows and DOS versions would have better
sales, at what seems to me a minor extra investment in programming
effort.  Also, these days, DOS users are typically somewhat experienced,
and such programs could be sold with very little support on the part
of the seller.  Even if the DOS versions were not atively marketed,
I think such an approach would result in increased sales, since those
who must use, or prefer to use, DOS are used to searching out their
software these days.

Well, just my $0.02 worth.  I suppose I'm way off base, since I'm
just an engineer, and don't know beans about sales and marketing.

I tried a couple of times, without success, to run SecDev
under Windows 95 & 98. I got it to work a few nights ago by
putting the SecDev volume on a FAT16 drive. It just didn't
like FAT32. It worked fine within a DOS window, BTW, no need
to use MS-DOS mode. The FAT issue would imply that NTFS is a
complete no hoper.

I was told a similar story which is thought provoking for those
who are running a small business:

A chap was running a small general store, when two giant
conglomerates opened either side of him. The first put up a
sign that said "Half Price Sale". The second put up a sign
that said "Lowest Prices Guaranteed". He responded by putting
up a sign that said..."Entrance".

I've used two products under 95 & 98, but not NT.

Shareware: Bestcrypt (http://www.jetico.com)
Freeware: Scramdisk (http://www.scramdisk.clara.net)

Quick Feature Review:

Bestcrypt has more tools, e.g. secure erasing.
They are equal re encrypted drives functionality.
Bestcrypt marks the encrypted volume file with a header which
may not be a great idea.
Bestcrypt has, IMO, a neater interface.
Scramdisk supports .wav file steganography - amazing concept.

Not surprising! SECDEV works a little bit like Stacker does - it creates a
"Drive" out of the secured file. It knows how to decipher the structure of
FAT16 but not NTFS or FAT32.

Hi Avi.

Just tried that added the "POPFirst=1" to my Post.CFG. It added the
feedback message "authentication" before Post/LX checked for headers.

The program then behaved normally in getting headers, but gave me a message
that said "could not connect to SMTP host" and then went back to "waiting
for hello...." before timing out. I increased my time out to 75 seconds, but
knew that it wouldn't help.

I can still get and choose headers, downloading only the ones I want;
deleting the rest, but it still doesn't send mail.

I don't think CompuServe has changed their POP3 Server. I can use
"www.mail2web.com" and get into my account, using "pop.site1.csi.com" which
is what I've got in Post.cfg.

I've also tried moving the "POPFirst=1" line around in the Mail section,
but that didn't change anything (I'd hoped it could be like a batch file and
pay attention to order).

Still tinkering.

Thanks to all who're writing to me about it.

Among my options for opening txt and doc files from Filer is Read.exe

I have configured pns200.ini to include a line
Action
r=c:\hv\read.exe %s

However, I find that if the read.cfg contain the lines 'Font=BIGFONT.FNT'
and/or 'Font1=bold.hfn', an error message will be shown that the font file
cannot be found.  If I remove references to the font file, no error message
is shown, but then I cannot read the txt or doc with the extra large or
bold font.

I have checked that my read.exe program is in the path statement, and that
the font files are in my c:\hv directory.

If I started Read.exe from the More Applications icon, and opened the txt
or doc file, there is no problem with finding the font files.

Has anyone managed to solve the above problem?

Hi!

I wrote a long reply to this, but the HPLX server rejected it. Honestly, it
was only 1600 words! I sent the original to Nicholas and Martin and written a
shorter version for you guys.

Technology has moved ahead. Real life battery time may not be any less than
the 9110.

> and a weird RISC based OS..)

Ouch! Somebody just stepped on my toes... :o)

Well, you asked for it...

The "weird RISC based OS" is the newest version of EPOC which in use on
hundreds of thousands of Palmtop computers. This OS was specifically written
for palmtops and is therefore optimised for the screen size. The touch
sensitive screen is great too, it's so intuitive, when I first got my original
Psion Series 5, I kept poking the pointer at my Toshiba's screen...
:o)

EPOC is a TRUE multitasking OS. Unlike the HP, you can have as many instances
of each application running at the same time as you wish, within the limits of
available RAM. The other day, when you guys were discussing how to have three
databases open at the same time, I checked what was running on my MC218. I had
24 open applications. Six of them were different files open in the database
application and on top of that, my Contacts file was open both in the Contacts
application and in PhoneMan Pro.

The computers that currently support this OS are (in order of appearance on
the market):

Psion Series 5 (4Mb and 8Mb)
GeoFox 1 (discontinued)
Oregon Osaris (Cheap, good keyboard, but too small screen)
Psion Series 5mx (Identical to 5, but faster processor and 16Mb Ram)
Ericsson MC218 (Identical to S5mx, but cheaper, more software and comes with
an IR-modem for Ericsson cell-phones)
German Series 5mx Pro (32Mb RAM, but comes with the OS on CD rather than ROM.
Unfortunately, only the German version of EPOC is available on disk.)
Psion Revo (tiny and sexy, but no possibilities for memory expansion)
Psion Series 7 (colour subnotebook with built-in support PCMCIA modems)
Psion NetBook (Identical to 7, but more RAM, faster processor and supports
networking)
Psion Revo plus. (Revo with 16Mb RAM and more software)

The Ericsson R380 cell phone also runs EPOC, but that's really more of a phone
with some basic palmtop functions and an e-mail application.

There must be a couple of million EPOC based palmtops out there by now, and
some very exiting new developments are expected within the next six months.
The EPOC palmtops come with some very powerful onboard applications and there
are thousands of shareware and freeware programs, including some very
professional looking ones. There is also an XT-emulator so you can run
DOS.

One of the main reasons for the popularity of EPOC (in Europe) is the very
powerful onboard programming language OPL which has brought many great
programmers to this platform. Thanks to OPL there is also the very powerful
Macro5 macro language. There are hundreds of Macro5 / Merlin compatible macros
available for download from the net and of course you can write your own or
even record them on the palmtop. Two of the most useful are ReplyEveryMail and
SaveMail which make the e-mail application the most powerful I've ever worked
with.

I've been messing with computers since the early eighties, and EPOC is easily
the most stable OS I've used. The computers are instant on just like the HP,
and it's quite normal to go months without rebooting. When I bought my S5
three years ago, I felt a bit guilty about buying an expensive toy. Little did
I know! My MC218 now runs my life!

On top of all this, the Psion and Ericsson machines have great keyboards. I'm
touch typing this message on my MC218 at about the same speed I used to have
on a full size keyboard.

The one thing to be aware of for any of you considering moving from the HP to
EPOC is that apart from the NetBook, these computers don't support networking.
They can, however access the Internet through an IrDA enabled cell phone, an
external modem, the modem of your desktop PC and the Internet connection of
your desktop. The CF slot only supports memory cards, but you can use a
PCMCIA modem with the optional PCMCIA pod.

If you need document compatibility with a desktop computer, you have a choice
of converting with PsiWin which comes with the palmtop or nConvert (shareware)
which runs on the palmtop. Synchronisation is reported to be good and stable
with the newest PsiWin version, and there are also a couple of good third
party solutions.

The original Series 5 machines had some hardware problems, but they all seem
to have been solved on newer models.

Last, but not least, the Software Development Kits are free downloads from
Symbian. While you may not want to write software, they come with an EPOC
emulator for WindoZe, so if your palmtop breaks down or gets stolen you can
still access most of your data.

OK, that's it for now. I hope this wasn't too much EPOC hype for an HP list...
:o)

Thanks Avi, Tony, Hans, ummm....  & everyone else who escapes my mind, right
this second, who emailed me on and off list.

Somehow, I never got "the word" to change my CompuServe settings to:

 smtp.compuserve.com
  and
 pop.compuserve.com

I've also got the "POPFirst=1" line in the Mail section of my .cfg file
and it works fine!
(haven't tried it w/o the "POPFirst=1" but don't feel like experimenting
right now)

I didn't see a notice and I only use CompuServe for limited email access w/
the LX lately; so I must've missed the "Banner ads" <grin>.

Thanks again for a rapid fix!

It's sort of like encryption.  Instead of hiding your data in a securely
locked file (like SecDev) you hide it in unused or unimportant bits as
part of another file.  One example: you trade JPG files back and forth
with a friend.  Anyone monitoring your traffic just sees the pictures;
they don't notice the hidden data traveling within the files in those
low importance bits that don't affect the picture quality at all (or
very little).

Yes, I think this would be the easiest and best solution.
Since the Rex is an internaitonal device that doesn't seem to be
adapted to the national languages, it probably isn't able at all to
display umlauts.
Or did you succed letting it display umlauts with the sync software for
the desktop (I didn't try it by now)?

BTW: I don't think that you have to write such a filter. I'm pretty
sure that such filters already exist! Maybe in simtel...

I'm sure i've seen mention of this before, but the URLs look
new to me so i figured I'd spread it again just in case :)

The guys who wrote the original visicalc got permision to
distribute it:
        http://www.bricklin.com/history/vcexecutable.htm

not that we need visicalc with 1-2-3, but they are very
supportive to releasing old software to the public.

I haven't gone through everything yet, but one of them setup
        http://www.outliners.com/
to host his outlining programs ThinkTank! & MORE

there are reference cards and other resources there.

...and ABC can now be replaced by a freeware solution with the same

While it is true a person could use charge forever without a fee it is
supposed to be shareware on the honor system. I made it shareware so it
and ABC/LX could compete on a honest footing. If a person doesn't
register it however they will not recieve any upgrades automatically as
they come out. There are a couple differances between charge and
abc/lx that should be noted. One, charge can start charging anytime
through a hot key. So you don't have to open a window or open setup to
start charging. Two, abc/lx is limited to 16 hours of fast charge time
which kind of sucks with the higher capacity batteries. Charge has no
such limits so its ready for 1600 or greater batteries. Three if you
used killmsg or some other program to turn off the palmtop while
charging , with charge you will not reset the charge timer, like other
programs. Charge uses a totallt differant timer for the charge and
stall. Personally I consider charge to be more of an upgraded batset
with many added features. However whatever program you use, if you try
it I think you'll pleasently surprized at what has been packed into 2k.

Well. I thought I saw a model from Rex that came with a touch screen.
The shop salesman told me it has a touch screen that permits direct
keyboard imput.  I thought that was cool, but how come no calculator
then? He confirmed it didn't.

Sorry I misled you.  I meant it to be a handy replacement for quick data
retrieval.  Anyway I saw a model that could do more than just transfer
between Rex and PC.  This one, maybe not as convenient as a 200LX, but
still can act stand-alone (ref. my message to Ken above).

Yup, thanks for the pointer.  I went on the web page and saw what I
needed to know.  Apparently this one is yet to be in Singapore (?).  But
it does have a calculator (so says the web page).  Now I can tell my
friend that he don't need a Motorola Accompli to get mobile.

I ran acctest on my Thinkpad 560x running WIN98 lite.
It reported "configuration test Failed" and in the "description" pane

The card numbers are EN2216-11 and 244226-001. I bought it within the

I should note that the card works fine under WIN98lite, it even
installed it's own drivers. I guess I'll just have to try it in the

As long as this conversation is continuing....

I just installed scramdisk.  Seems pretty good.

But I'm having a bit of trouble with that steganography feature.  I have
the wav file but I keep getting an error that it can't find the file on
disk??  I managed to create one such volume (with difficulty) but can't
do it again with a slightly larger volume.  Any ideas?

Somebody pointed the List to this dealer in a previous post, but I thought
it would be worthwhile posting it again. They used to sell the EN2216-1 card
for $15 (refurbished), but now it is $25 (refurbished, with dongle). This is
a good deal, since they want the same price for the dongle alone!

They also have some product literature in pdf format, and might be able to
provide tech support.

Aha... I know the scheme in a slightly different context.  There are
schemes that interleave data to be hidden as noise in other files. Similar
idea. I did not know the name for this. Thanks for the explanation.

John, thanks for the post. There are other features in ABC/LX which are not
included in other products, such as timers, and the handy display, as well
as the ability to track the charge process, and auto-tune the process.

The 1600mAh seems to be the limit for batteries, the vendor's claims to
exceed that not withstanding. There is  simply chemistry which seems to
supersede the claims of manufacturers. If you check carefully, you will
also find that the upper limit claims are the NOMINAL values, not the
actual values, which are a lot smaller. Therefore, whle it seems to
"suck"  (your word, not mine :-) ...) the 16 hour limit is reasonable and
more than adequate.

While it is also true that you can drag a NiMH battery (and NiCds too) to
as high as 2.98V during the charge, this is not a value that is supported
by the chemistry of the battery. The chemistry supports voltages around
1.3V - not 1.5V. Even though you see the batteries at these stratospheric
values, they last there for a tiny amount of time, and drop within minutes
to their operating (realistic, practical) voltages, where they spend the
most amount of time servicing you.

You made a comment about killmsk resetting the the timer (but did not refer
to ABC/LX). Just to make sure - killmsg does not reset ABC/LX's timers.

Lastly, I have said it before and drew heat (flames) for it - I will risk
it again: It seems to me that what we need is a product that makes me STOP
WORRYING all the time about the batteries, not something that makes me
spend MORE time on that task. ABC/LX was designed for that purpose -
install it, calibrate it, adjust it to your usage patterns and batteries,
and just forget the batteries. ABC/LX does EXACTLY that - by design.

But it seems that Palmtoppers are an obssessive lot! :) --- we want to eke
out another minute - all all costs - from these poor batteries. Oh well...

All the best!

Avi, interesting post. Yes, that is why I consider Charge.com to be an upgrade from Batset. It
has some of the same abilities as ABC/LX such as checking the stall but
I did not write it to do all the same things. ABC has its features
Charge has its features. But they are pretty much meant to do the same
things, set it up with your batteries and forget its there. Charge is
pretty streamlined and meant to use as little memory and disk space as
possible. I took what I found important after charging batteries with
the LX for years and implemented them.

<g> I have to disagree. I expect 1800 and 2000 before long. It
depends on how low you run your batteries. I usually run mine into the
low thirties. This means I need to run a much longer time than what I
could with ABC. (I am a previous user of ABC)

At the low charging current the LX uses, trying to use a peak voltage
to judge whethewr the batteries are fully charged doesn't work. If you
check with the manufacturers you'll find they recommend a timed charge.

Same with charge. You don't even have to worry about having to set the

My thanks to Stephan for his suggestions. Turns out that the problem was
with my SRAM card, not LetterPerfect. The card is one of the 1.5MB Cards
that Hal got with the 200LX's he bought from the Dutch Railways. Somehow,
the card's format/FAT got messed up. I could copy files to it on my Toshiba
Portege, but they were not showing up when the card was in the 95LX. LP did
show, but wouldn't run properly, as part of it must haver been corrupted.

I got out an old TMD-500 ThinCard Drive, vintage 1991, (bought on eBay) that
I have and hooked it up to my old Compaq LTE/Lite 25 (a 386), reformatted
the card, and copied LP onto it. LP now runs fine on the 95LX in Monochrome
mode. (BTW: This model ThinCard drive comes up on eBay fairly often. There
are Windows drivers that will work with it, but not reliably, I have found.
That is why I attached it on my 386, so I could run it under real DOS.)

There is additional good news/bad news, however. The good news is that the
card, which is supposed to be 1.5MB, formatted at 2.04MB (CHKDSK reports
2,077,184 bytes). Works fine in both the 95LX and the Compaq. The bad news
is that it appears unformatted to the Toshiba laptop, so I can't use the
Toshiba to transfer files to the card.

   There was a problem that surfaced when too MUCH memory was freed
up with some programs.  I don't know if this applies to you.  Check
with MEM to see how much memory is in use before trying to load
LetterPerfect.  If DOS + TSR's + etc. is less than 64k some programs
fail.  If you find this to be the case, use LOADFIX to (what else)
fix the problem.  And there is a BIOS location to show the "end of
memory" available to an operating system.  But worry about that only
if "MEM /c" or "MEM /s" shows memory above 640k available.

  Did you ever get MODE to work?

Hello--  I'm inquiring about an extremely basic thing here.  I'm rather new
to the palmtop world, so please bear with me for asking you to go over what
is undoubtedly all too familiar territory...

I use Microsoft Word 97 on my PC at work, and would like to transfer Word
documents back and forth between my PC and 200LX.  Right now I'm just using
the 200LX's Memo program, which seems unable to handle the formatting
contained within Word 97.  Is there a particular word processing program
and/or method that I should utilize to ensure compatibility?

Thanks in advance for your attention and assistance.

No. You would need to run xtce on it and it would be very slow.

I don't do significant word processing on the 200LX, so my $.02 till the big
guns chime in....

Several people have posted using older versions of MS Word for DOS and also
running MS Word for Windows (prehistoric version) in Windows 3.0 on the LX.

Still others are fans of Word Perfect for DOS.  Most of these mentioned are able
to save to a format that's recognizable by Word97 to offer at least limited
compatibility.

Given that you have a DOS 5.0 machine running on an 80186 processor, there's no
chance of finding anything that ensures complete compatibility with Word 97
(particularly imbedded graphics) .... there are various levels of document
formatting that cross over well, but the word-smiths here can better comment on
what works for them.

There's also some software that converts the Memo format into RTF (rich text
format) which is supported by Word97, and this may give you a measure of
compatibility in terms of very simple features.  It depends on how extensive
your Word97-specific needs are.

The RTF convertor is at the SUPER site -> http://www.palmtop.net/supernew.html

Look for a program called DOCRTF.

I suspect that there are a number of reasons they don't want to
support Dos anymore, in addition to the small demand.

Programmers coming out of college don't know Dos today and they're
much cheaper than the older, more experienced programmers that do.
And easier to find.

Also there's the question of support.  If they sell it they'll be
obligated to train people to support it and they probably don't have
nearly enough sales to justify that.  And I'm sure that they expect
sales to diminish further as time goes by.

When I transfer files I back and forth I use just pure text without any
formating.  Where Word allows you to choose fonts I've found it better to
not do any formatting on the 200lx but to do the formatting in Word with the
desired font.

Well, I had heard about this concept/feature before.  The 'beta' 3
version seems to work on those wav files.

The next step probably would be to disguise scramdisk and then even if
found, remove any history is stores (does it) so that it does not offer
to open files in the subdirectory, you last looked at!   But I don't see
where it offers "disk" size like the other version.

Will keep experimenting.  I've now got all those registration codes for
www stuff to hide! (G)

Hi Daniel,

I can't help you with the dongle, nor do I know if your part number is
the right one.  I can tell you the part number on my card (which works
in my 200LX) is 146226-001.

Nathan,

I run Windows 3.0 with Word version 1.1a on the palmtop. It runs well on
my double speed unit. Although it might not give me total compatability
with Word 97 that I use at the office, I do realize enough to make it
very useful for file sharing between the palmtop and the office desktop.
I only have to use this level of compatability with my die hard Office
97 users at the office. For my tastes I prefer plain old ASCI txet.
After all, I'm only interested in the data not the formating <grin>.

To accomplish the transfer all that is needed is to save the Office Word
97 document to an ealier version, 1.1 in this case. Forget the forms
that are created in Word 97. Don't even think about the photos you might
have in a document. The data is what is important.

I hope this answers your question. Feel free to ask for more detail if
you need more.

SecureDRIVE or SecureDEVICE?  I'm running SecureDevice and Software
Carousel in my 200LX just fine.  I originally has a vanilla 200LX-4M but
now I have a single speed T2T 32M system and SecDev and SC still work
great.

OPTIMIZE.EXE is a defragger that comes with SC; it should also work on
hard disks ok as it was offered as a separate defrag program at one
time; not just a utility for SC.

I think the important factor is the UART type in the LX.  If it is an
8250 as I think it is then the important thing is it ONLY has a 1
character buffer (versus a 16 character buffer in a 16550 UART).

An 8250 can run at the same speed as a 16550 UART but due to the much
smaller incoming character buffer it is severly limited if the pc is
doing something else and can't read that character before the next one
arrives.  In this situation the symptoms would be missing characters and
the solution would be to drop the baud rate to give the pc more time to
service the UART.

The type of software running on the LX (comm, link, etc) will determine
what the pc is doing and therefore how successful it will be in
servicing an 8250 UART at high data rates.

'I think' a lap link type of program is easier to run at high connection
rates than a comm program like WWWLX but I can't prove my assumption.

Cheers... Russ

No dos based program is going to be able to handle any of the windoze
based Word versions.

There are a variety of programs (notably View) that will allow you to
process a Word97 document into a plain text file but you will loose all
formatting that was in the file.

IMHO, if you need WYSIWYG Word on a PDA, the best option is going to be
a WinCE or PocketPC machine where you can run PocketWord.

Hope this Helps...

Hi Nathan(an all):

   Others have mwntioned running older versions of WORD (Ihave WORD for
   DOS 5.5 liaded on my FLASH card, but have yet to make real use of
   it), but if you are just interested in viewing WORD97 files, I can
   recommend Malcolm Drury's VIEW. It is a DOS file viewer supporting
   several word processor formats, including WORD up to ver 2000. See
   http://mdrury.hypermart.net/ for more details.

I use the program fixtext to convert 8bit characters in a file to the
7bit characters I need. It can be configured to any needs. The
translation table is coded in a ascii - ini File.

FIXTEXT.EXE: Program which applies a  user-definable  character-
translation table to a text file. Can allow you to convert graphics
characters to their text equivalents, lowercase letters to uppercase
letter, etc.Can also be used to translate DOS text files to Mac or Unix
text  files and vice versa. Can also expand tabs, remove leading and
trailing spaces, remove backspaces, and remove blank lines.  NOTE:  Not
being updated  on Simtel sites.

hello,

first thanks to all who responded on the list and in private mail to
the ID-error in my Accton 2216-1.
The last message I got from the European support is that they want to
change my card. I hope I get a new one without this problem. (I think
it could be a problem that is present in all cards of a certain
release, but I am not sure)
The serial nr. of my card is: 0002011254

For all who want to test their card with acctest.exe: this is possible
in the palmtop without being connected to a network.
The release of the firmware in the card can be easy checked with LXCIC.
The recent version is 2216-1 R02. An update of the card will probably
change the MAC - address of the card. (it was changed in my card!)

If your card gives an ID-checksum error in Acctest.exe, in my
experience the card works with the novel drivers but not with
ethpcm.dos used for netbeui in a Win95 network.
In some notebook computers with incompliant pcmcia slot or OS the
Acctest.exe will not run, but as you all have a HP200, this will not be
a major problem :-)

I did a web search for acctest.exe and found some copies that seemed
to be for other models (en2218 etc)

is there one for en2216 and where can it be found?

Hi Dale,

Yes, I am afraid the time has come to say farewell to Derive for DOS.  Even before TI acquired Soft Warehouse, sales for the DOS version of Derive had pretty much dried up.  However, it is still available for sale from Soft Warehouse Europe at www.derive-europe.com.  New versions of Derive for DOS software will not be produced or sold.

I really appreciate your kind words for Soft Warehouse, Inc. and your long-term enthusiasm for our products.

Aloha,

Subject: Derive for DOS Discontinued?

Dear Albert,

Is it true that Derive for DOS has been discontinued? I sure hope not! I've been a long-time fan of Soft Warehouse's products and I've been skeptical about TI's recent take-over - apparently for a good reason! muMath was my second software purchase, Turbo Pascal v3 was my first. I currently use Derive v4.11  and muLISP v7.4 on my HP200LX palmtop computer. I love the power these programs bring to my palmtop!

Cheers,
Dale Batson

The palmtop uses a 16450 compatible UART without FIFO buffer.
Only the 16550A UART has a FIFO buffer. The Megahertz XJ14400
uses for example this chip.

But the existence of a FIFO buffer by itsself does not speed
up the transfer. The software has to enable the FIFO buffer
and must use it. Clever software detects the existence of a
FIFO and uses it if available. I wrote a tiny utility to check
which UART is built in:

http://peichl.hplx.net/uart.zip

I also uploaded another utility called MODEM.COM, which checks,
if a modem is connected to a comport. Download from:

I've recently come across a Linksys Network Everywhere np100 pcmcia
10/100mb card and on looking up info, saw it was an ne2000 clone.

I looked around for power info, but having found none, I just started
experimenting with the card.

The card initializes on my 200lx using LXCIC v2.1 and the EN2216 packet
driver v11.1.3.

The power draw when active is too much to run off batteries, but so
far it's working when using external power without issue.  It
generates less heat than my zoom 14.4k pcmcia modem after 15 minutes.

When I get home I'll do some more checking.  I've seen this card going
for about $35 in CompUSA, so it may not be a bad alternative for when
you're tied down to a desk.

http://www.networkeverywhere.com/pcmcia2.html


Is anyone keeping a list of which network cards work?  So far every
ne2000 compatible card I've come across works with lxcic and the accton
packet driver when I'm plugged in, and some otherwise.

Try www.gmx.net
it allows not only redirecting, but also various filters...

If all you're looking for is a personal e-mail address that has no mailbox
behind it so it can be pointed at a real address that the senders never see,
then you can get that with a domain of your own choosing from
http://www.namezero.com.

Good point.  Avi, does WWW/LX detect and use the UART FIFO buffer?

I pay $15USD/year for my POBOX.COM email address that just forwards to
my real, current, address.  There are free services but POBOX gives good
service and there isn't any advertising associated with it.  I've had
this address for about 4-5 years so far without any problems.  The main
reason I use something like POBOX is so I'll have a permanent email
address no matter who my current ISP is at the moment.

Cheers... Russ

Hello,

I'm interested it this external modem debate. So...this weekend I will
dig out one of my USR V.90 external modems and hook it up to the 200LX
and give a report of the speed. I will preform a couple of simple test
to determine the relative speed of the external modem. I will run the
same tests on my PCMCIA modem for comparison. I will post what I have
determined.

Hi

I have a Namezero "account". They offer redirecting, but also a pop3
access to the main account that you create there. I know this because I
pop it every day. :-)

Namezero has had problems in forwarding messages. Hopefully these
problems are no more.

I use several mailadresses. news@bergvill.com is forwarded to a
Bigfootadress and filtered and then forwarded to another address. It
works great.

WWW/LX is increbily uninterested in modems.  We put in the minimum code to
deal with modems, and left it to the user to initialize and so on. I cannot
say specifically that no, we do not detect uart, but based on the general
"hands off" from the modem approach, I believe WWW/LX does not touch that
subject.

Assuming that POBOX remains around forever... Youm ay have better luck with
old names such as Compuserve and AT&T. IBM was thought to be "permanent"
but it sold Global to AT&T last year.  Another, perhaps even better is
having your own domain. If an ISP who hosts you gets wiped out, other ISPs
can step in, and you still have the same domain name, same email
address.  I know  nothing about POBOX.COM except that a friend of mine used
them for many many years too, so I do not mean to throw mud on them, just
something to consider.  I went with a large ISP which also makes a living
selling other communications gear and  services, hoping they will be able
to weather the market up and downs. So far, so good.

Eric,

Don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but check out www.mail.com. They
have a number of domain names you can use with free redirection
(including the one I'm using, mail.com).

Regards,

Larry Feldman

P.S. Should you be an old Trekkie - check out www.startrekmail.com.
It's operated by Mail.com, and the StarTrekmail.com domain has free
redirection (You must pay to use startrek.com).

This question deals with the serial port, not the modem.

"Best" is always a difficult word... Contrary to popular belief, the world
does not revolve around Bill Gates.

The Psion, Ericsson and Nokia devices that run the EPOC operating system have
an excellent word processor (with outlining), a great keyboard (possibly not
so great on the Nokia), lots of very powerful onboard software, and thousands
of software titles available on the web for just about any imagineable task.
All this runs under an unbelieveably stable multi-tasking OS. They also run
Java.

A Psion Series 5mx or Ericsson MC218 will run 2 - 3 times as long as most
comperable WinCE devices on a pair of rechargeable penlights, and like your
HPLX, if you run out of steam a long way from home, you can simply slip in a
pair of alkalines and keep going. Another plus is that thanks to the unique
design of the case and unlike many WinCE devices, the Psion and Ericsson
machines don't fall over when you use the pointer on the touch sensitive
screen.

My Ericsson MC218 has 16Mb of onboard RAM which is dynamically shared between
storage and program memory by the OS and I have an 80Mb CF card. I just
counted and came to 32 installed third party applications not counting the
built-in apps. Some of the most useful third party apps are:

PhoneMan Pro.
The most advanced cell-phone management and SMS program on any computer -
period.

Route Planner.
Detailed roadmaps for Europe and North America (I don't have a car now, so I
use it mostly as an Atlas.)

CodeSafe.
Secure encrypted storage of passwords etc.

WAP.
WAP browser. WAPing is a lot nicer on a big screen than messing with tiny
phone screen. It's just a pity there aren't any really useful WAP sites
yet...

TomeRaider.
A file reader for the TomeRaider format. I have amongst others the Oxford
English Dictionary and the Hutchinson encyclopaedia. Try carrying the paper
editions of those in your pocket... :o)

nConvert.
File converter for lots of different text and graphic file
formats.

Navigator:
An advanced file manager with support for ZIP-files. Sort of a more advanced
and easier to use WIndoZzzze explorer with WInZIP built in.

Merlin:
Task launcher and macro engine for the extremely powerful Macro5 macro
language.

ConvertPro.
Very good and configureable unit converter.

Contacts program, Calendar, E-mail, Web browser, Word processor, Spreadsheet,
OPL programming language, Jotter, sound recorder and several more are of
course on ROM.

Try www.iname.com or www.bigfoot.com. Both give a choice of several different
domain names, and at least at iname.com, the e-mail can be configured as
webmail or forwarded to any e-mail address you like.

I've been happily using iname.com for well over a year now, and moved between
several different ISP's simply by changing the settings at Iname. When NetCom
Norway's POP3 server crashed and was down for almost a week this summer, I
simply changed the settings at iname.com and in my e-mail program and kept
going like normal. No need to inform my contacts of a new e-mail address
etc..

BTW, I'm at present redirecting my iname mail to an e-mail address / Internet
account with www.lineone.com in the UK. I signed up via the web around a year
ago. I've never actually dialled in to LineOne, I just use their POP3 server.
The e-mail at LineOne is also available as Web-Mail.

Fred,

If you're asking why you don't get offered a disk size for wav
file steganography, it's because the "random" bytes of the
encrypted volume replace the top 25% "random" high order bits
(usually the hiss to very high harmonics) of the wav file. The
volume size is fixed at 25% of the size of the wav file. If you
want a bigger volume you must find a longer sound. I seem to
remember there was a 50% option too.

This is exactly why I have my own domain name.  Compuserve is my ISP for =
now,
but if that changes I can still be reached at steve@carderfamily.net
