I don't subscribe Palmtop Paper but I think it about
TNS (Terra Network System http://www2s.biglobe.ne.jp/~tns/tnshp32.html).
They can upgrade memory in a few days and very low price.
I think this service is available only in Japan.
They don't support 100LX upgrade but I did 16MB upgrade myself
for old 1MB 100LX. It works fine! (modification is VERY difficult)

Sorry of my bad english.

I'm using a cover/case for my 200LX that is made by Kensington Sports.
It is called a Stretch-Fit Kensington Palmtop Wetsuit.  It's made from a
soft, form-fitting neoprene material and doesn't increase the size of
the 200LX so it's still very easy to fit into a pocket.  It attaches to
the bottom of the palmtop with velcro pads and closes with a zipper.  It
also has an exterior zippered pocket which is perfect for carrying a
pen, paper, business cards, and a PCMCIA card.

I bought mine about 6 months ago from Day-Timer, 800-225-5005, Order #
AHT-64181 for only $9.95.  It still looks brand new.

Hi All (again),

Thanks Kazuto Kitakubo for responding so quickly to my comments on the
possibility of upgrading the 100LX.

You mention the Terra Network System at
<http://www2s.biglobe.ne.jp/~tns/tnshp32.html> as being able to
upgrade memory, but not for the 100LX.  I tried this site and although
most of the display was incomprehensible to me (it said for Japanese
only), it certainly appeared to discuss only the 200LX (which is the
limit of my Japanese!).

However, in the same message of 1 July you also go on to say:-

< They don't support 100LX upgrade but I did 16Mb upgrade myself for
< old 1Mb 100LX.  It works fine! (modification is VERY difficult).

Naturally that has whetted my appetite and as it was broadcast to the
List there could be, I imagine, quite a few other 100LX users anxious
to know more.  Your e-mail address would tend to confirm that you are
an expert in the field and if you say it is VERY (your capitalisation)
difficult to upgrade, then what chance would most of us have?

To come to the point, what would it take for a 100LX lover like you to
upgrade the unit of another 100LX lover in a foreign land?  A free
trip to an exotic location, perhaps, or possibly after all that I said
previously about it, even a swap for a 200LX?  Maybe, should you wish
to reply, you should use my personal e-mail address while the rest of
the Palmtop world is still asleep!

Thanks again and best wishes,

Barry Collins

Hi All:

     Yves Leurquin has written a nifty little macro that formats a
daily EMail from Xenon to update the currency conversion values in HP
calc. You can save a few keystrokes if you use POST/LX by changing the
data file to clipview.txt. Just load Yves's macros, go the the Fn-F3
Macro "Executes Lotus Macro" and change "/fitcurr.txt" to
"/fitclipvue.txt". Then when you get your message from Xenon, just hit
COPY (Fn=3D) and the message is automatically saved to
C:\_dat\clipvue.txt (no need to type Shift F10....). Then update your
conversion factors using Alt-F2 as before.

FYI: Programs available on S.U.P.E.R.

Yves' macro: CURR120.ZIP

ClipVue: CLIPVU.ZIP (you don't actually need this for the above tip)

     - ClipVue is a tiny EXM utility that allows
     loading and saving the 100/200LX clipboard to a file.
     DOS programs that normally don't have clipboard access
     can with this utility.

Cheers,

There's an add in comp.sys.palmtops for XJ1144 & XJ2144 modems for $25.

What is the difference between the XJ1144 & XJ2144?
The add says they are good for the HP200LX; any comments?

Difficulties are,

a) To get the TNS memory board  outside Japan
   TNS doesn't accept foreign order.
   I'm sorry but I can't help you at this matter.

b) Soldering skill and tools
   I think your 100LX (SG333) has no memory connector on the
   mother board, so you have to solder about 40 of wires!
   Even later version of 100LX needs some wires.
   And some special tools requires, microscope, thin solder iron...

c) Support
   I can't support when problem occured. (time and english skill)

After all, I can't recommend upgrade.
Are you still want to try?

TNS uses two 64Mbit self-refresh DRAM for 16MB, four for 32MB.

I talked to Corel on June 5 about WP 5.1+. I was told that if I
had WP DOS 6, I could buy a disk only _downgrade_ for
about Cdn $40 + $10 shipping (Cdn $50 ~ US$ 35, but it =

depends on when the relative prices were set). I was also
told that a) I would need a serial number for 6, and b) there
were very few copies available.

Corel US + Canada Orders: 1-800-772-6735

Since I had to do this when I didn't know about or didn't
have time to play with boot managers, I've been using
another technique that's fairly easy:

1. Create a special directory for your various
config and autoexec files

2. Put all versions of the files there with distinctive
extensions, eg config.bay, autoexec.bay, config.ful,
autoexec.ful.

3. Write batch files to copy the appropriate
files as you need them. For example, Bay.bat
could copy config.bay to c:\config.sys and
autoexec.bay to c:\autoexec.bat.

If you find you need a third (or tenth!) set of files,
you need only set up the new config/autoexec,
and then copy and edit a batch file.

I generally add comments reminding me to
reboot. In some cases, I also add a comment
line reminding me what the file does, and a
pause so I can Ctrl-C out of it if I've picked
the wrong one <g>.

Can you please develop further on this upgrade ? (kind of DRAM used, number

I have a stock 200LX (SG50402007)for sale, along with the following accessories:
executive leather case
connectivity pack
5MB HP flash w/stacker(=10MB)
14.4 pcmcia modem
HP power supply
+all documentation

My 200LX and its accessories are (seriously) as good as new - both functionally and cosmetically. I am paranoiacally (word?) careful with my toys. My 200LX has never been disassembled or serviced in any way. I cannot offer any warranty.

I am asking 300USD (+shipping, insurance) for the lot (20% of my investment), no haggling. This is only available as a package. Payment must be made by cash or money order in advance of shipment. I am also paranoiacally honest and careful with my money.

Please contact me directly (rayp@earthling.net) as I do not receive all the HPLX mail.

Your english is very good. How did you upgrade your 100LX? I've
always heard they're not upgradeable. Did you have to make your
own board?

Thanks

Thanks for the reliablity info,
I saw one for the same price at the "www.shopper.com" and was thinking
of getting it. For those who like to shop around for electronic stuff
their site has a listing of 1000's of products that are sorted by price
and gives the vendors' phone number. It used to be "uvision.com".
Anyway...

What your thinking of is the clip-on flexible light Mitch sells!  :)
http://www.palmtop.net/light.html for his page, and I have a supplimentary
page http://sac.uky.edu/~wally/ptlight.html expanding on replacing bulbs,

Baycom 1.6 won't work for me unless I unload all the TSR's (I have
several loaded), it won't even run on my notebook without first unloading
the TSR mouse driver. The instructions even make mention of it. What
version are you using? Does anyone have any experience with any other DOS
TNC software other than Baycom that will run on the LX?

Set up frame type 802.3 on server and bind IPX to it

On the palmtop, run:

PDIPX
NETX  (on a 32MB 200LX, you might want to replace this with VLM.EXE)

f: (or whatever your network drive is)

LOGIN /SCRIPT NUL (prevents processing of login script; otherwise 200LX

works well but does not have the features of Baycom. It is also smaller and
simpler to use. I ran SofTNC by dropping to DOS without problems. I am not
even sure if it is on the market anymore, it could be like the PMP (Poor
Man's Packet) unit that came out it 73 Magazine years ago, just a flash in
the sky and then gone.

Russ, I've used both and as near as I can tell they are
interchangeable.  They share the same manual and the specs
are identical.

I've found the modems to work quite acceptably on my 200LX.
I get around an hour online with a freshly charged set of
NiCad's and somewhat less with a new set of alkalines.

I don't know if this is the same "Case Logic" case you refer to since it
sez "palm pilot" but the case dimensions might be the same. The
kensington wet suit case mentioned in a previous post is also listed...

Below are some files on Simtel (www.shareware.com, DOS) that
may help.  I haven't tested them on the LX.

If the changes are only in the autoexec.bat, you may not need

a reboot at all.
If you put a MARK statement in your autoexec, you can later
do a RELEASE from
the DOS prompt and remove any TSRs (and System Manager??)
that were loaded after MARK.

MARK/RELEASE/MAPMEM)

tsrwrk32.zip    75K  90/06/05  Mark/Release TSR management
pgms, with ASM src


The below manage multi-booting. As I recall, some would allow

you to insert a question
into Config.sys so you could make your choice which could
then be tested in the Autoexec.bat.
Completely bypassing renaming files methods! I would look at

I do.  At least the little bit that I've read about it on the AMD and
QNX site.

AMD calls it the \(mu)forCE machine.  It's intended as a prototyping
system and it apparently can run either winCE or QNX (I know which I'd
pick :-).  http://www.qnx.com has some info on their development
system that can run on it.  The hardware is reasonably priced, but I don't
know if it can actually be packaged into a palmtop form factor.  I believe
I've seen a picture of it packaged as such but I can't find it now.

Searching for "forCE" on the AMD site will turn up 5 links about it.
One will be the hardware programming manual.

That looks really interesting if you could get someone to actually
make it into a handheld computer and sell it. As it is it looks a
little fragile. <G> I don't think it would hold up as well in day to
day use in its present state. :-)

Hi,

        Since I couldn't figure out of my palmtop or my laptop is having
problems , someone suggested a Radio Shack Infrared Sensor, Part #
276-1099.  I just found it today, and I can't see anything from the palmtop,
but I can get it to send data to the laptop.  I can't see anything from the
laptop, but I don't know if the sender is bad, or the palmtops receiver is
bad.

        Any ideas?!

Subject:      Modem baud rate in 2X Speed  HP200LX

Don't laugh, but I use a very cranky program to transmit and receive
Pneumograms (sleep studies on babies) and it is so old and cantankerous that
it only accepts the existence modems running at 1200 Baud. Fortunately,  I
have one(Volks 520 VM modem) that survived my ATARI 1040ST days.   It worked
great on my old 6MB HP200LX, even in hotels and other places with digital
phone systems when I used telephone connecting cables that only have 2
connectores wired into the RJ11 plug. However, when I got an 8MB doublespeed
200LX, the program runs but the modem will not communicate and it is "timed
out" or gives me a "noisy data line" error.  I tried it yesterday with both
palmtops side by side, on the same settings in Filer-Communications-Remote,
and it did NOT work on the 2X machine, but went smooth as silk on the 1X
machine.  I tried setting the 2X machine on 2400, 4800, 9600 Baud, and it
still would not work. What is going on???? (Both machines are running "plain
vanilla" configurations except for the 2X speed, and after downloading, the
info is stored in the "A" (B) drive, which is the same 40MB Pretec flash ATA
that I move from one computer to the other.)

Many thanks to all who sent me and/or the list info on this one!

Just when I was thinking about exchanging it folks on the list have made me
pause!  Heck, I was just psyched about the idea of a free year's extension
to my HP Palmtop Paper (one of the "perks" that comes w/ selling your
palmtop to Thaddeus <no commercial affil.> during a trade or straight buy
out)!

And, Barry, your note taught me two somethings!

I thought my screen was going bad!!!

Nope! <didn't know that>

re:

>printing symbols for items such as
>accents, sterling and degrees

Alas, only on yours!  On my U.S. version, they didn't give me the same extra
symbols.  The first time I *saw* a printed upside-down question mark,
printed on an LX keyboard, was when the French colonel I worked with compare
his LX to mine.  I'm guessing this is a "foreign market" thing HP did when,
as even this list proves, there really isn't such a thing anymore... I may
have to persuade you to write down where all the special keys are someday!

Enjoy!

Is your HP200LX a 1meg or 2meg unit?  If it's a 2 meg and still
available, I'll take it.

Hello,

using this maiing list with WWW/LX resp POST/LX I got a problem:

There are about 55 new mails to receive - after about downloading 40 =
mails, I get the error msg ' Error writing File' although there is more =
than 1MB free space on the 'drive' (C:).

Going online again, the same thing happens (same e-mails are downloaded =
...) - any 'known' effects? (I don't delete  downloaded msgs/mail with my =
HP200LX on the mail server!)

Thanks
 Hermann

John,

Thank you for your reply.

>Your english is very good. How did you upgrade your 100LX? I've
>always heard they're not upgradeable. Did you have to make your
>own board?

Thank you so much!
I'm going to write continuously in spite of my poor english.

I got TNS 16MB board on February. It made for 200LX.
I tried to upgrade memory for my friend's 100LX.
But It has old type mother board and without extention
memory connector.
So, I have to remove 36 pins from TNS board and jumpers to
mother board.
Not only soldering but also put in the board in LX case
was VERY difficult.

At last his 100LX has 17MB RAM (1MB+16MB)!

BTW, I was developped 32MB board myself for 200LX on last
October and still developping 128MB memory for my 200LX.
Does anyone know RAM disk driver for over 32MB?
Any info is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,
---

Quick!
I just saw a posting in comp.sys.palmtops by someone wanting to sell a
200LX screen!  The subject line is "HP200LX Screen $40."

Good luck!

The XJ prefix on Megahertz modem model numbers indicates that
they have the X-Jack.  I think (I'm not certain, mind you) that
the cellular capable Megahertz modems have a CC prefix instead.

Hi! Kitaburo...


If this upgrade is so hard then:

-Would you like to bring us your  upgrading service?
-How much ($) do you want  for this?
-It work on a 200LX too?
-After upgrade its compatiblity with HPLX software?

Thank you...

Pablo KIM

This is really WEIRD! The EXACT same thing is happening to be at this
moment. I tried downloading my mail (5 on server), and I get 10K into the
HP Digest, and I get an "Error writing file". I also have space
free (5 meg on "A"), and plenty on "C". I've gone online (via shell) to
delete the Digest and try again.

FYI - I'm using Post 2.1. It's not a problem with the card - chkdsk, check
(Stacker 4) all show the disk as being fine.

I've not had this problem before... there must be something in this digest
Post doesn't like.

I was lead to believe some time ago (can't remember the source) that memory
upgrades were not possible on the 100LX because there were insufficient
address lines on the MB, or something in the BIOS, or something ... I can't
remember.  Mack's site says he can't upgrade 100LXs and this reinforced the
idea.  Is it actually possible, but just a tremendously difficult
undertaking as to make it unviable?

Thanks.

I do not have the least intention of upgrading service.

TNS says they support only 200LX.

>-After upgrade its compatiblity with HPLX software?

It depend on software. Some Japanese software not
work correctly in upgraded LX.
But almost all software work without problem.

The memory disposition as follows.
  BANK0=512k, BANK1=512k, BANK2=8M, BANK3=8M

I tried BANK0=32M but didn't recognized.

Could you let me know Mack's site URL?

I have a similar sensor and thought my hp95 IR output was gone, but it was
just really weak.  I had to darken the lights to see it, where as for a
typical remote, the IR sensor card is bright.  My HP100 is much bright IR
output.

I had the same problem on using an alarm to automatically back up my c:
drive every night to a flash card.  It would give me the standard "abort,
retry, fail" prompt if a flash card was not present and hang until you
responded the next morning when you turned it on.

One of the undocumented DOS command.com switches discussed on this list a
few days ago solved my problem.  In your alarm file used to backup the drive
add the following line:

command.com /f /c backupc.bat

where "backupc.bat" is the batch file with your backup instructions.

"command.com /f" loads a second command processor which will automatically
bypass a failure of a flash card not being present.  The /c switch tells the
new command processor to run the batch file and terminate the new processor
when completed. It works great for me and I had to add no new software to my
system or add any tricky error detection routines to my batch file.

I apologize for being off topic but I recently traded for a HP Omnibook

willing to try and field any configuration questions should they arise.
Please reply to me directly.

Or better let the computer do the job - that is what they are there for.

I enclose - *only* because the program is *tiny* - a uuencoded 21 byte
version of it plus the source in A86 assembler (shareware which can be
downloaded from http://eji.com/index.htm). You can of course do the same
in C in 4000 bytes if you have some space you want to get rid of.

Note that you *can* lose data as the buffers are not flushed - something
worth noting especially on computers running Windows. However, I have
never had problems. To be on the very safe side one should probably issue=

a disk reset as the cache probably checks this. =

As I understand it the .FAX format is some kind of standard format for
faxes.
I have checked various fax software for a small program that converts
the .FAX file to another format such as .PCX or other. But I can not
find that. ( in future versions of lxpic would be nice ;->  )

Any suggestions?

Suggestion for you sir.  Swap the guts of the two units you have so the
upgaded 200 lurks within the 100 case.  Then find one of the
"dead/broken screen" 200's that come up for sale and "re-upgrade" the
200 back to a 200.  Just a thought...

Check the comp.sys.palmtops newsgroup. I saw a posting today from a
person wanting to sell a LX screen only. I forget name and particulars,
but the posting appeared today preceded by the usual "FS".

Failing that, Mack, who does the 32mb upgrades, also fixes screens, if
he has them in supply. I don't have his email address on me, but I think
his website is www.times2tech.com

I have both the XJ1144 and the XJ3144. The latter is cellular capable and
the former is NOT. I don't know about XJ2144.

When my screen got cracked I sent it to HP; repair cost $175.00 (in 1995).
The data on your 200lx is probably still intact. Don't foget to download it
to a safe place.

That's odd.  I had heard that the 95 IR transmitter was *much* stronger
than that on the 100/200.  What's going on here?

Morning Mack, guys and gals of the list,

An inneresting thing happened to me on the way to morning.

I blew my 32MB if C: memory the other day, and learned a little more.

I had a beeping batt msg in the upper left hand corner one
evening. It said BU batt low, but not having read it, I assumed
(You heard the one about ASSUME?) it said MAIN batt, which I
knew was low and intended to chng them in the morning for a
full charge for the day.

Well, y'all get the picture now. Both sets of batts low and the
mem goes. Ya gonna walk a coupla miles if ya keep waiting to
the last mile to refill the tank. You guys ever do that?

At least I get to twek it for a better refill.

Happy Forth of July y'all.  Throw one on the barby fer me.
...and a salute for the grand old flag.   OK people, at ease.

Yor pal al .....................

Oops! I bought one more 200LX today! ;-)

But don't worry about it. 128MByte is the hardware limit of 200LX.

Just yesterday I saw an add in comp.sys.handhelds or comp.sys.palmtop for

An alternate way of doing this, which I use all the time with no problems,
is to use von buerg's list.com in the same way you use more.

mem /c | list /s

The /s tells list to take data from standard input.  It also lets you
scroll back if you want to.

However, I've used more plenty of times with no problem.  So I wonder
if this was just some other problem waiting to happen.

The problem isn't with Qbasic.  The serial port can't keep up with 9600
baud when being polled.  An interrupt driven routine is needed above about
1200 baud.

An alternate solution if you want to use Qbasic is to download an interrupt
driven com port driver, install it in config.sys and then open it the way
you're opening com1.  Most of them that I've seen use the device name "asynch".
I can't tell you where to find one exactly but they used to be all over the
place.  Simtelnet would be a good place to look.  I doubt if you'll have much
trouble finding one.

Dear all and Mr Kazuto,

YES, I for one would definitely like to take a chance of upgrading my 200LX
(2Mb SG4) which I understand that this upgrade is meant for 100LX.

So please Mr Kazuto, document your techniques and I'm sure fellow
listmembers would not blame you if things don't work. (Usual disclaimers
would normally suffice).

Thank you in advance.

Hello

Thanks to all the people who responded to my question on
the 200LX, qbasic, and com1. We got it working. Had to turn
off hardware handshaking to get it to work with the moisture
measuring device. But qbasic 1.1 worked fine.

One more 200LX out there serving a useful function.

There was a post from someone on HPHAND on CIS a few years ago about the
Fuji batteries, which Walgreens sells under their own name.

As I remember it this person's company was in the batttery business and
was always testing it's competitor's batteries and Fuji batteries always
outlasted anything else they tested.

I've been using them ever since on a number of devices.  I haven't really
tested to see if they last longer, but they do last and they're reliable
and they're cheap.  That's a nice combination.

I also use Fuji tapes to record books on tape that I rent so I can listen
to them at my convenience and don't have to rush through them.  I have
about a hundred of these tapes that I bought about 8 or 9 years ago and
I've used them over and over, constantly re-recording.  In all that time
2 have gone bad..  I suspect Fuji just makes good stuff.  The tapes are
very cheap also.

I would call Dell support and ask them about it.  I recently bought a used
Dell with the master password set and I called them to get it cleared and
to ask a few questions.  They answered all my questions and were very
helpful.  They also (with my permission) called the previous owner to verify
that the machine wasn't stolen. It was!  Well, at least I got my money back.  :)

But, even though that cost me a good deal on a laptop, they did exactly
what they should do.  I have a real good feeling about their support.

I think the usual procedure is to install stacker on a pc and then
move it over to the palmtop.  The hidden stacker file has to be moved
also.

I haven't done this.  One of my cards came with stacker and I used it
for a while to try it out.  I got tired of giving up the memory for the
driver so I took it off.

I've installed Stacker 4.0 to a RAM card (A:) several times. I placed the
installation programs on drive C: and created the Stacker file on A. I
believe the proceedure was posted to the list not long ago. I for one,
found the instructions in an old Palmtop Paper.

If you are still having problems, drop me a note, and I'll try to find the

You sure do.

I had to delete (actually rename) my foxuser files
with their carefully edited (but still inadequate)
mono colour sets to get a clean set of default
colours. I also found that I had to run cursor.com
--I'm using the WordPerfect version--from
within FoxPro, so I put it in my setup.prg.

At some point, I might want to play with the
highlight characters to go back to reverse
video instead of underline. But, in the
meantime, I'm _much_ happier.

Thank you.

I was able to secure a copy from HarperCollins. The editor of PTP, Hal
Goldstein, has posted in HPHAND in CompuServe that he was in negociations
with HarperCollins to bought the remaining stock.

Unfortunately HarperCollins thought I made a mistake ordering the MS-DOS
version and sent me the Windows one. Bill is everywhere <G>. They were most
helpfull and accepted the return of the Windows version and the DOS version
is already in its way. Nevertheless I decided to keep the Windows version
to give to a goddaughter who is learning English translation techniques and
tried it before I gave it to her. If the DOS version has the same
functionalities this is one very, very good piece of software for our 200LX
palmtops. Anyone with flash cards below 15MB would better be thinking of
boughting a larger one.

why do yu gotta fool stacker inta thinking a: is a floppy?
It shouldn't don gotta make no never mind.

I do the staker (ACE) file on RAM d: then flam shoot it

While your waiting, BU everything, check for hidden files.

The displays of my 100LX and my 200LX are virtually the same shade. I think the
LCDs are manufactured in batches, and subtle shade differences are a result of
how a particular batch turned out.

Alas, only on yours!  On my U.S. version, they didn't give me the same extra
symbols.  The first time I *saw* a printed upside-down question mark,
printed on an LX keyboard, was when the French colonel I worked with compare
his LX to mine.  I'm guessing this is a "foreign market" thing HP did when,
as even this list proves, there really isn't such a thing anymore... I may
have to persuade you to write down where all the special keys are someday!
-------------------------
My 100LX (purchased in Canada) is an "International English" version, and does
have these extra keyboard symbols. Alas, my 200LX (purchased in the U.S.) is a
"U.S. English" version, and does not have these symbols.

Along the same lines, the new Sony video cameras that have a "Night
Shot" IR filming mode, can REALLY see all IR devices.
My TV remote looks like a flashlight to it, and you can see it
strobing on and off as you press different buttons. I've used
my Sony TRV-65 several times to see if an IR device is actually
transmitting.

Comments: To: mackb@mindspring.com

Morning Mack, guys and gals of the list,

SEE NEW COMMENTS AT END.............

An inneresting thing happened to me on the way to morning.

I blew my 32MB if C: memory the other day, and learned a little more.

I had a beeping batt msg in the upper left hand corner one
evening. It said BU batt low, but not having read it, I assumed
(You heard the one about ASSUME?) it said MAIN batt, which I
knew was low and intended to chng them in the morning for a
full charge for the day.

Well, y'all get the picture now. Both sets of batts low and the
mem goes. Ya gonna walk a coupla miles if ya keep waiting to
the last mile to refill the tank. You guys ever do that?

At least I get to twek it for a better refill.

Happy Forth of July y'all.  Throw one on the barby fer me.
...and a salute for the grand old flag.   OK people, at ease.

Yor pal al .....................

Then this (a coupla hours later);
"I too was hit with the "error writing file" bug on 7/1. I also
seem to be having trouble w/ WWW/LX dialing out. I keep getting a
"enabling datacard..." then "modem not ready". DataComm seems fine.
Goin' Postal - HP 100/200LX (v2.16) EVALUATION"

I got ERRor writing file with 16MB showing and thought it was my
low batt prob as described earlier.  Then it disappeared I got my
32MB back with no files/DIRs.  Hmmmmmmm.

Gotta look for it next month.

Hi group-

Do any of you assembly language or C folks know what address or
addresses hold the flags indicating the state of the palmtops serial
port?  (off/wire/IR).  I have the int 15h routines to set the port
state, but didn't find info on the state flags...  I'd appreciate any
info on addresses and bit assignments.

Looking to add this to HP-Pygmy  8-)

TIA

Is there a way to reset the serial port to default status?  For instance,
when using REMKEY, then after that trying to transfer files via the serial
port, I get a "No Connection" error.  If I go the the More,... menu, quit
to DOS (<menu-a-t-return>), then restart (<100>), the serial port works
fine.  I'm just wondering if I reset the port via a *.bat file?

TIA,

To all you people getting problems with WWW/LX, has someone tried resetting
the system date to temporarily work around the problem?

I'm not sure it is date related i.e. after I deleted the offending HP
Digest, WWW/LX seemed to work. I'll need to try again this evening to be
sure however.

Hey guy,
The little memory it cost you to use stacker you get back in
spades, and then some, through memory gained.

To use or not to use depends on if you need  the space or not
as it it cost a wee bit of time and (its unprobable) reliability.
Now a days, at least the ACE V3.0 is pretty stable and I've not
had a problem with it when I do use it over the years.
Silly to stak a 160MB card when you only use 10MB on average.
Some people like BIG numbers among other things. :)

In the old days I doubled my C: drive which was good since
that's where my woik wuz.

But even as a line of X's it is still a uuencoded file, just not the same
one. So where as Jorgen posted a useful file, you posted a _totally

Most of the time I get good connects with POST/LX to Netcom. Maybe 5%
of the time (sometimes more often) I get this message returned to me
right after I receive CONNECT (with the debug level set to -1):

*** Unknown protocol 0820 received
*** TIMEOUT

And that is the end of my online run. I have to re-dial and its
really no big deal when I have free local calls. When I am in a hotel
that charges for local calls, it gets expensive.

Anyone else getting this error?

Hey everyone, just wanted to send a quick note about how fast Steve fixed a
problem I was having with my local SMTP server.  Apparently they have
attempted to make it spam resistant and in doing so made GP and LXTCP's LXPOP
fail at sending mail.  Watching the headers indicated that HELO was failing
because of no domain given.

Steve, within a day, emailed me GP 2.17 with an option to skip sending the
HELO line which fixed the problem!  And Steve knows I haven't been able to pay
my dues yet, so expect good support paid up or not..  :)

Also, Rod reminded me of the domainslist line in wattcp.cfg which fixed LXTCP
as well.

Thanks guys!

Aw, sorry!!!GGG! It will probably almost never really happen again!

I forgot to put in a copyright message =3D 28 bytes for the message + cod=
e to
print it + I suppose I should add code telling it is year 2000 complient
(if your computer will boot at all, that is), another 35 bytes etc. =


So, could you all return the binary .COM file to me ASAP on a postcard fo=
r
these important additions?

Mark,

I did notice the <g>. I am not upset, just decided to answer

> We should yank this guy's chain by pretending interest in a purchase.

I wrote to him about the Transfile asking if he was kidding.
He replied kindly wanting to know where it can be had for
free. It appears that Yellow Computing sold it to him to
resell. Oy! He also said maybe he did not do his homework. I
told him about the list or near list prices he charges for
palmtops, and encouraged him to go look at the dealers in this
market. Lastly I mentioned the PCMCIA prices that seem to be
grossly out of line with the prevailing market.

I am afraid that he may be innocently being taken to the
cleaners by his own sources... What a shame.

Yep, that looks great!  I find I can get the cursor back by running
"!mono8025" again from the FoxPro command window.

Well, almost great, I'd like to swap the "colors" for enabled and
disabled system menu items so the enabled ones are darker than the
disabled ones.

Maybe I will have to play with the color sets after all.  When I saw
that in the manuals my first thought was to wonder where they hid the
handy set of defaults for laptop LCD users.  (OK, so I am a lazy
cuss.)  Fortunately I seem to have found PROCOLOR.APP which will let
me dink with the colors and give me almost-immediate feedback.

setup.prg?  Is this something that FoxPro will do on startup?
Sorry, I am new to FoxPro and it's been a while since I used
dBase III so don't remember all these little fiddly details.

You get underlines?  I moved my foxuser files out of the way
and I am still getting data fields displayed in what looks
like reverse video.  Or am I misunderstanding?

Yes. Or at least my 100lx has been known to transfer files in that way. <g>
Open the terminal application on both machines, set the same baudrate,
stop/start bits parity, etc, and just type away at the keyboard. If the
characters come across OK you can transfer files using the xmodem protocol.
On an Omnibook and on a mitsubishi it works fine. I have a Compaq that I
haven't tried, but suspect it will work OK.
btw - you don't need irda or any other drivers on the lx.

Unlike GIF or JPG, FAX is not a specified file format. There
exist almost as many FAX file formats as there are FAX modems.
Even though all of these FAX file formats were created to store
the same kind of image data, each one is slightly different
from all the others.

For this reason you will not see FAX file format support in
my LXPIC program.

You seem to tell WWW/LX that you use an OmniGo 700LX with a
datacard. Are you?

The Error writing file happened to me and several others here.
It seems to be some malformed message.

And a seaprate, third item: Some of you recall that about
mid-May we discovered a bug in WWW/LX Plus. It would revert
to non-registered status on July 1. Well, on May 22, 1998 I
sent an email to all licensed WWW/LX customers on record as
of that day, and in it there was a fix. Amazingly, there were
some people that got hit by that. And their names _were_ on
the list, so I assume they got the email, since others did not
experience it.

If anyone has that problem, just write support@dasoft.com, and
I'll re-send to you the fix. Do not post here, it is a pain to
move things around among my email addresses! Thanks...

On May 22, 1998 I sent a message to ALL WWW/LX Plus Version 2
customers about a bug in the product. This has NOTHING to do
with the Write Error - please don't start making people crazy
by relating things that are not.

If anyone sees "Unregistered" message from a WWW/LX Plus
Version 2 which they DID register, please send email to
support@dasoft.com. You have received an email about it almost
a month and a half ago, but I'll be glad to send it again.

AGAIN: This problem and the ERROR WRITING TO DISK have nothing
to do with each other.

The Error writing to disk is likely to be a malformatted
message. It happens in at least two versions of Post/LX, and
has nothing to do with old July 1 bug we discussed here in
mid-May!

I had an identical problem. No idea what it is. The message
said error writing the file, not that it had no space. The
second run got all the messages. No idea other than maybe the
server is having a bad day, or maybe some message on the list
has strange structure...

How about you take a nice deep breath and get oxygen into your
system, then another, and now let's think: Maybe the guy is
just an innocent victim of some distributors of of software
and hardware?

Have you contacted him? Did you discuss with him? Do you know
he is an evil person? I did, and I did not think he is evil
("sticker", in your words), I thought he was taken because he
is a little naive. Maybe I am wrong, but maybe not, it is
50-50 probability. How about you?

Indeed! It has nothing to do with the July 1 bug, except the
fact it happened yesterday, and today.

I wish people did not lump anything and everything together
with a kitchen sink and jump on it as a "problem". It makes
people hysterical! :)

Thank you for the post.

This is what it means: The server sent a weird protocol (I
think this one belongs to Netware perhaps?)

Could you kindly d/l Post/LX from our Web page (it was
refreshed with Post 2.1 recently). If this persists, I'd like
to ask you to send this to support@dasoft.com, so we can
"percolate" it to Andreas to see.

thanks...

It is even WEIRDER! I am NOT getting the Digest, and I get the
same identical problem, not at 55 messages, but the same error
message. No idea what it is. Second run gets them all ok.

Truly strange...

I'd have to agree with Avi.  I made some remarks in jest earlier, but have
since talked with the guy and found out that he basically got shafted by
his supplier, with out-of-date pricing and charging for materials that
should be free and... all sorts of stuff like that.

I guess next time I should get all the facts before shooting my mouth
(keyboard) off.  Sorry, all.

Subject:      Bad guys & a LX question

I think someone must have sent all of the world's bad guys to Central
Alabama :( Not only are we having an extensive manhunt for a cop killer,
today some one opened fire on an armored truck with a fully automatic rifle
which was enroute to a bank. The suspect also planted in excess of 15 pipe
bombs near & around the bank. The suspect escaped and now we have yet
another manhunt on our hands. The first manhunt is taking place in the
county just east of where I work and the second is taking place in the
county just west of where I work. My department is supply bomb technicians
to help disable the pipe bombs (we have the most extensive bomb dept in the
state, robots and all the other stuff that you see on TV) and the ATF has
been called in to aid with them. This holiday weekend is gonna really suck
for those of us in the law enforcement business.

OK, here's my LX question. I finally decided on a utility from Simtel which
will aid me in choosing between autoexec.bat files so that I can quickly
boot with an alternate autoexec.bat file that doesn't install any tsr
programs in order to run Bay Com without any conflicts. To run the
autoexec.bat file swapping program I need to enter the following info at the
c: prompt:

reset bc

I would like to set up two icons in System Manager, one to reboot the LX
without any tsr's and to load the Bay Com program and then one which would
reboot the LX and load all my nifty tsr's such as Buddy, cic, click, etc..
When I go to set-up the app, how exactly do I specify reset.exe and the
required bc parameter in the application set-up screen? When I try to put
just the following line:

c:\boot\reset.exe bc

or

c:\boot\reset bc

I get a nasty message which basically tells me that I have specified an
invalid file name. How can I pass along the much needed bc parameter in this
command line?

We must have a later version of W98 here in the UK as the source code on
my machine also has the following update to be inserted just before the
call to "create_general_protection_fault()"

    if (user_actually_got_this_far())
    {
      for (i=3D1; i < 5; i++)
      {
        complain_missing_driver(random);
        do_nothing_loop();
        seriously_spin_all_disks();
      }
      punish_user(screw_up_registry);
    }

Anyone with an even later version?

No problem, should I add graphics mode while I am at it?

Seriously: It *is* wrong to post a binary file. I originally intended to
post the source and give a reference to the A86 web-site. Since very few
people would have an assembler - let alone know how to use it - I made a =

version. I could not get it much under 4K if it were to be portable and h=

my doubts about how many people actually had a C compiler. So I
exceptionally added the uuencoded binary as a service. =


If my brain hadn't kept rebooting too, I would probably have thought abou=

the correct solution and uploaded it to Super. Apologies.

So: don't do as I do, do as I say.

This is what I know, if you can provide any further information it will be
greatly appreciated:


1- TNG upgrade uses four 64Mbit DRAM which are:
        - 4Mx16
        - Low power self-refresh
        - 4K refresh, this is A11-A0 for row, A9-A0 for column
        - FPM/EDO

2- The Hornet IC has four RAS lines, and only supports DRAM configurations
with equal number or row and column address bits.

So, the TNG DRAMs are not directly usable in the HP200LX. What they surely
do in the 32MB upgrade is using the four RAS lines to encode a row/column
address suitable for the Hornet DRAM controller. This is why the upgrade
has a couple of standard logic chips.

In the case of the TNG 8MB upgrade, I guess that the four RAS lines are now
used to encode the A11 and A10 row address bits. The mainboard DRAM must
also be removed and the 8MB chip (4MBx16) appears as four 2MB chips (1Mx16)
connected to each RAS line.

3- The Times2Tech 32MB upgrade uses four 64Mbit DRAM which are:
        - 16Mx4
        - Low power self-refresh
        - 4K refresh, this is A11-A0 for row, A11-A0 for column
        - FPM/EDO

As the row/column address bits are equal, this DRAm type is directly
attachable to the Hornet DRAM controller, just need to group four of them
to form the 16 bit datapath width required.

Also, this DRAM package (TSOP II) is easier to route, because the pin
spacing is 1.27mm and thus you can route tracks in between.

Advantage: only one RAS line is used. No need to remove the mainboard DRAM
(which is added to the total amount of memory 2+32).

Disadvantage: the BIOS doesn't seem to support 32MB per RAS line. A driver
must be written (which Mack did, and seems to be a good work since it's
been reported to work much faster that the BIOS built-in driver).

This is the kind of upgrade I designed. The PCB is ready, but couldn't get
the DRAMs. I work in the electronics arena, and have good realtions with
many manufacturer representatives here in Spain, but none of them could
supply these chips.=20

So, this project is in stand-by.


An alternate project is a 16MB upgrade, using two 64Mbit DRAMs (8Mx8,
Row=3DA11-A0, Col=3DA10-A0). A single standard logic chip is required in ord=
er
to encode the A11 row address bit from two RAS lines, and thus make this
upgrade appear as two 8MBx16 DRAMs connected to two RAS lines. I'm actually
waiting for the chips I requested as samples, but even in case they're not
supplied, I can always get them from a standard notebook memory module
(they're very common, as opposed to the 16Mx4 chips).

The 8Mx8 chips are TSOP II too. I've simply discarded building a TNG-like
upgrade because the TSOP-I package makes PCB routing and prototyping too
complex.

Times2Tech upgrade is BANK2=3D32MB (or maybe BANK3=3D32MB), and is not
recognized (needs a driver). At least, you still have your mainboard RAM as
drive C: to boot from and load the driver.

This happens to me as well.  It is usually a problem with a specific
email message that cannot be later downloaded by any POP3 reader I
have.  I am not sure if POST causes the hang, but here is how I fix the
problem:

Go into the setup ( External) and select Mail (F4 I think <g>).  Select
your mail folder and edit it.  Press enter after the first screen shows
up without changing anything.  Then change the max message size to
1000.  This will cause you to temporarily get only headers when you
download your email.  Then press F10 and accept the change you just
made.  Go online and after the run, DO Not select the problem email to
download on yoyr next run.  Which one is the problem email? With my
setup, it was always the last email POST tried to d/l before I changed
the max message size. Go online again and the emails you did not select
will be deleted from the server (assuming you have that option
selected).  Then change your max message size back to your standard
value.

Okay, I've bitten my lip long enough on this discussion.  I have been
really perplexed over the years, as ye olde FORTRAN lost favour, what
has become of the numerous scientific/engineering plotting packages
that almost every computer installation had?  They were variously
called PLOT or PLOTS, and had a huge variety of useful plotting
functions.  They were device independent, plotted in real world
units (inches or cm), and were really helpful.  When I first started
work at my company in the mid-eighties, we were using PCs, and I
had our computer guru track down a PC version of this library called
PLOT88.  Still around, but only supports FORTRAN in a native manner.

Why haven't the C and C++ folks gotten on the bandwagon and come
forward with a similar product?  There have been a few times when
I almost bit the bullet and started writing one on my own, until
common sense prevailed.  There are a number of plotting packages
being sold these days, but they are invariably interactive GUI
type (not bashing here - there is a legitimate place for interactive
plotting work).

Your BASIC routines sound indeed similar to what I'm speaking of.
Were AXIS functions available?  How about 3-D surface and contour
plots?  These 3-D funtions were only available in the high-end
products of days past.

I remember some time ago, somebody on the List was looking for a
program to manage zip files.

If you haven't already, download Stereo Shell from the SUPER Site.
With Stereo Shell you can view, zip, unzip, update your files right on =
your
palmtop.,

I also suggest anybody who uses WWW/LX (as I do ) to download files from =
the
SUPER Site to also get Stereo Shell.

Stereo Shell has put my palmtop one step closer to being my only computing=

devise.

Long live the 100/200LX

Hi

I had something similar happen when I was running Turbocpu on a single speed
machine.  I had to slow the machine before it would run comms progs..

I dont remember the key sequence on my Doublespeed 8 meg..  What brand
upgrade are you using?  Can the Doublespeed drivr be disabled?

Hope this helps

The "Case Logic" case referred to in the last couple of days on this list is
actually a walkman case. I picked up mine in a neighbourhood record shop in
Melbourne, Australia. It has two zippers, the inside one is just right for
the palmtop and the outside one I use for the serial cable, connectors and
spare batteries. It has belt loops and also comes with its own belt, which
means that it is very easy to either wear or carry. It laso has a small clip
(for headphones) onto which I clip my car keys when I am not wearing my belt
- this way I never forget my palmtop!
The case has a thin layer of foam padding inside. It is a nylon case - NOT
WATERPROOF and if you wash it the foam padding disintegrates. I find it the
cheapest and most useful way to carry my palmtop (drivers licence and car
keys), wherever I go

I have a copy of Easycad 2 along with the manual and original 5 1/4"

it is readable. If the software is usable I can get it to you. Do you
have anything you don't need that you're willing to trade? If not, I'd
still like for you to have it. It's a shame to have old software and not
have someone benefit from it. Let me know.

        I went into my darkroom and saw NOTHING from either the laptop or
the palmtop.  The palmtop can send to the PC, but I'm not sure the laptop
is sending or the palmtop isn't receiving.  SIGH.

        I also have been playing with a Motorola Montana Modem, and once
I got my battery problems solved I now turn it on, it beeps and turns off.
When I pull the card, it turns on fine.  I realize it isn't within the
150 range (Its 200) but it was working for a bit.

        I'm trying to get this to be a good system for PPP dialin.  I'm
not ready to drop alot of cash if its going to be a pain at every turn.

It ran fine for me on Warp 3 and still runs fine on Warp 4 but loses the

shape, with connectivity kit (serial cable, manuals, etc.).
Send price and serial number privately.

you don't need GRAPHICS.EXE on the palmtop if you print from
within SysMgr. Use SETUP to select the appropriate printer
driver (EPSON/HP/IBM), shell to DOS, call LXPIC and use Fn+0 to
print the screen. This indeed only works, of you have one of
the supported printers. I have the HP DeskJet 500 with serial
port. It works without any problem.

I never had success in printing graphics from plain DOS,
without SysMgr running. I guess, you need the appropriate
GRAPHICS TSR fitting to your printer.

I think it might be worth pointing that out to someone at HP.
Since Transfile is a copyrighted program and HP is pretty serious
about such stuff, they'd probably stop them pretty quickly.

    Try finding someone with a night vision scope or take your computers to a
store that has a night vision demo unit.  Using night vision, it is obvious how
much lower the IR output is from a computer when compaired to a TV remote.

The 200 LX handles NiMH batteries very well. I bought a set of 1000mah
batteries at a ham radio show 2 years ago, and they're still working
perfectly. I measured the run time months ago, and it was (I think)
greater than 10 hours, though I'm not sure.
Now, I have the Times2x crystal, (which uses extra current), and I
frequently have the machine plugged into AC at my desk, so I no longer
track the battery time, which is still very long and quite satisfactory.
In fact, on a recent flight to Europe, I ran the HP for hours writing a
scientific paper in the "memo" ap.

Several observations: NiMH cells are more subject to damage than NiCads,
and (at least these) can't be fast charged. You can use the built in
charger, where the rate is fine, but the timed cutoff @ about 6 hrs may
not fully charge the battery, though you can experiment and certainly
restart the charge cycle by simply plugging in the HP. You can also not
wait till the batteries are really low. Or, you can of course charge
them externally, but I find it not worth the bother. I made myself 2 AC
power supply units, and I keep 1 at home, and the other in my office, so
1 can charge whenever I need to.

Another option is the battery charge program ABC/LX, which is nice to
have, and will automate the process. I downloaded the demo, but never
bothered to buy the full version once the demo ran out of time.

Remember, if you're using the HP charge facility, to shut off (uncheck
the box) battery charging if you are continuing to use an AC source, and
the batteries are already fully charged.

Other tips-once charged, you can monitor the battery charge state by
switching back to the alkaline cell option, which gives you the
thermometer graph. But, while after a full charge, you'll see the bar go
fully to the right, it'll come back to about 2/3 quite soon, since these
cells run at about 1.2 volts each, not 1.5 as alkalines do. They will
spend most of their discharge cycle at about 1/2 scale. Be careful when
they drop much below that: they have a fairly flat discharge curve, so
the end voltage drops fast, and you can run out of power without too
much warning. (If you're away from power and need the palmtop, either
keep another pair charged and ready, or it's always good practice to
keep a pair of alkalines handy-though I've needed them only once in 1.5
years.

So, buy a good set. You'll be happy with them.
Hope this helps.
Eben

The Case Logic case is model number HPC-2 and it looks like a clutch
design with a velcro closure.  It has slots for either PCMCIA or credit
cards, a pen loop, and a compartment for cash, screenwipes, or whatever,
in addition to a compartment for the LX.  It was specifically designed
for PDAs.

I am not familiar with the type of emitter/detector system
used in the 95LX but from other systems I've worked with
if the thing is sending you that means the emitter is working
and you should be seeing some sort of light coming out of it.
If it was only recieving that would mean the detector was
only working and you wouldn't see anything. I would recheck it
maybe with a differant tool.

200ma is too much. Use a Viking or Simple modem if you want
a fast modem otherwise you can get a 14.4 modem for about
25 dollars. The 200LX works great for PPP but it does have
its limits and the 150ma pcmcia port is one of those limits.
But even thats flexible. HP told me 180 is about the upper
limit.

ABC/LX should handle most of the newer NiMH batteries just
fine. The 200LX only charges at 100mA which is only a trickle
charge for these batteries. I would check the discharge rating
of the batteries. It should be at least 2C preferably 3C or 4C.
(I'm still looking for a set that will discharge at 4C). The
only thing with ABC is its limited to 16 hours so after 16 hours
you have to unplug then replug in the ac. Shouldn't do it with
Nicads but nimh will handle it just fine.

Why the high discharge capacity?  In this application, I would not
think that to be of any consequence.  I know nimh batts cannot
discharge at as high a rate as nicads, but since the HP will only pull
about 400mA max, I never thought it mattered.

I have found the higher the C rating the longer the
batteries last when I use a modem. I used a set of Nicads
that were rated 850mAh 1C with a modem that used 140mA
and I got about 15 minutes- it was like the batteries shorted.
Used 2C 800mAh got about an hour. I think my NiMH are 1C 1300mAH and
I get about 45 min to an hour with a modem rated at 144mA. About
comparible to the 2C Nicads. (because of this I'm thinking of switching
back to Nicads)
It doesn't seem to matter when I don't use a modem. (I use a modem
a lot, though, so thats what I base most of my judgements on.)
Then the capacity seems to matter the most. (I might be going
into overkill with the 4C rating you're right the HP doesn't
use all that much current:-).) Remember the mAh rating is based
on the discharge pattern.
Just my personal experience not scientific at all.

Hi

I tried turborom on my 200LX and it did seem to speed
it up a little. when I tried turboram it still let me
access the flash card and I didn't get any errors from
that but my pc card modem wouldn't work. At least they
didn't destroy anything. Turborom and Turboram change
the wait states from 3 to 0 on the rom and sram cards.
They were written for the 100LX. Availible from Eddie
in the 100LX directory under turbo.zip. Maybe I'll
try turbocpu.

I have a few of the kensington laptop wetsuit cases, and they are made
out of actual 'wetsuit' material, if someone wants a case with
waterproof material. On one of the web sites they are about 8 dollars
but I think there is also a minimum order of ? dollars. I like the ones
I have very much. I should add that the laptop cases have a metal plate
in an inner pocket to act as armor to protect the screen from bumps. I
was hoping that the palm-sized case also had a similar plate. On a side
note, I stole that idea, and put a piece of polished stainless (that is
very thin & no sharp edges) in my palmtop cases to guard the screen
side.

Does anyone run TASM on their palmtop (200LX)?  I recently copied my
turbo assembler on to the palmtop, and noticed that the debugger won't
run.  I get an error message saying that I need at least a 286 to load
the "stubs".  Can't find any mention of this limitation anywhere in
the manuals.  In fact, it makes it pretty clear that I should be able
to use tasm on almost any class of machine.  Perhaps that only goes
for tasm itself, and not the debugger.  Anyone else knows what's
going on?

I too had a major problem with my HPLX today, July 2, 1998.  I was using
the LXGPS program and had turned it off when I left the car for awhile.  I
came back to the car, turned it back on and began to start the LXGPS
program when it did a hard lock up with the message "error writing to
file".    I had to pull batteries and <sob> wipe the 5 meg of memory away.
I hadn't done a backup for awhile (shame on me!).

For Avi's peace of mind, I wasn't using the WWW/LX program.  I did have an
earlier demo version loaded on my HP200LX, but had not used it for many
weeks.

This was the first time ever that I had to wipe the memory on my HPLX.  The
only other time was when I upgraded from 1 meg to 5 meg SRAM.  Very odd!

Probably not. HP does not own the program. It is Yellow
Computing from Germany. They are the people who sold it to
Samson Cables.

Phew! This is VERY useful info. We have been working on this
in the WWW/LX Plus Beta, and the conclusion is that maybe,
maybe, remotely, possibly it could have been the message that
was killing Post/LX, but it was a tenuous. We sort of
"wanted" it to be that, because maybe that would provide an
answer to this mystery. What you provided is good info,
although it destroyed that sort-of-maybe reasonable structure
we constructed to sort of explain it with Post/LX! So shame on
you again, hey we spent a lot of time of speculation :-) ...

Truthfully, it helps in that it provides a more correct
direction to look for the problem.

Andreas has actually concocted a version of Post/LX that would
be resistant to this stuff!

What amazes me is that the error is the same!

Backup, make backups! :)

Thanks for the feedback!

Subject:      LXBatch error.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit

I am getting an error from LXBatch using LXPGP occationally, and it seems that
the more I add to LXPGP the more often it happens, hopefully there is a way to
fix it!

It exits LXB with "Fatal error:  PalMemFull:  Out of memory!" on the DOS
shell.  I know it's not conventional memory, as I'm starding with 520k, and it
only happens using LXB functions, not such as executing PGP or such that does
take a bit of ram.

Is it a case of me not allocating ram I should be, or what?  I'm using all LXB
variables (one environmental for PGPPath) and LXPGP is less than 14k.  It
seems to happen occationally when using a Text box (title, text...), but now
if I enter my configuration then exit and go to another function it bombs
every time.  However, if I place ForgetConfig in front of my ReadConfigs it
doesn't happen so predictably.

Appreciate any help, I need to squash this bug.. :(

Hi Johnson,

Your post just confirmed my suspicion that the July 1,2 problem had =
something
to do with the memory upgrade. Don't know way though.

I frequently use VOICE, which is a DOS based irc program. It won't allow dcc
send or receive, but it's nice software for general chatting.

Subject:      Bad Guy Caught!!!

I just wanted to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers over the past
ten days. As of about 10:00AM this morning the cop-killer we've been looking
for was caught in Biloxi, Mississippi. Last night he kidnapped a man within
the boundaries where we had him pinned down in Moody, AL. He forced this man
to drive him to Mobile, AL and then across the State border into
Mississippi. He stopped at a rest stop and the kidnapped man fled in his
car, Cintobe, then carjacked another car and driver, but within half an hour
the were stopped by deputies from ths particular county in southern
Mississippi without incident :) Had it not been for some violent weather
last night here in the area, he probably would have been caught here last
night or today. We worked a 100 sq mile area down to about 2 or 3 square
miles where he has been hiding. Once again thanks for all the thoughts,
prayers and kind words expressed to me.

Jeff

Oy! <g>...

Phew! This is VERY useful info. We have been working on this
in the WWW/LX Plus Beta, and the conclusion is that maybe,
maybe, remotely, possibly it could have been the message that
was killing Post/LX, but it was a tenuous. We sort of
"wanted" it to be that, because maybe that would provide an
answer to this mystery. What you provided is good info,
although it destroyed that sort-of-maybe reasonable structure
we constructed to sort of explain it with Post/LX! So shame on
you again, hey we spent a lot of time of speculation :-) ...

Truthfully, it helps in that it provides a more correct
direction to look for the problem.

Andreas has actually concocted a version of Post/LX that would
be resistant to this stuff!

What amazes me is that the error is the same!

The

Backup, make backups! :)

Thanks for the feedback!

Ah, but the internal checksums are wrong, so it is not a valid uuencoded file;
ie not a uuencoded file, just apparently one.

OTOH, such a file is _worse than useless_....

It is a shame... I think one of greatest things about on-line
groups is the availability of such information. Provided someone
has access to this group, and other on-line sources, getting ripped
off is unlikely. Unfortunately, most purchasers probably
join the group post-purchase...

Check out www.fdisk.com. There is a good list of dos based tcp/ip links on
there (TVDog's Dos tcp/ip page is the best, but I can't remember the link off
the top of my head right now, but you'll find it on fdisk.com)

I use
-cutcp telnet application (it has a built in FTP server!!!)
-ftp
-wattcp utils (ping, ntime, lpr, lpq, rexec, etc.)
-gobbler packet sniffer
-tsoft NFS client

I've had problems getting bobcat (text based html) to work, but I don't think
I've tried the latest version. I got Arachne (graphical web browser) working,
but I think the newest version needs a 286. No matter, web browsers are
typically too big for a palmtop (at least until I jack it up to 32MB :) If
only someone would write an interface between HV and wattcp...

Subject:      Network Card?

Hi,

I'm new to this list but not the 200lx.

I'd like to get my 200lx on our Netware/tcpip network, I've been
trying with 3com 3c589's, NE200's and an ACCTON card... no luck.

Anyone out there with a successful configuration or list of pcmcia
cards known to work? I'd like to use an ODI mlid if possible.

I've also heard about a cool network diagnostic package that runs on
the 200lx, can someone point me towards that as well?

TIA,

Chris

It too won't let the 200LX turn on when its inserted.

Are you able to restart it using ctrl+left shift+on at all?

Have you restarted by bypassing the autoexec and config.sys
files to see if you have a conflict there?

What programs are you running when this happens?

Otherwise I would recommend pulling all your batteries and
letting it sit for about 10 minutes to make sure you've
completely cleared all the memory.

These programs have been recommended here for

MS Word for DOS v. 5.0              $25 shipped.
    I have no experience with this.

MS Works for DOS,  v. 2.0           $15 shipped.
I have two shrinkwrapped copies (5.25 disks)
Includes a manual and a getting started booklet.

I am not a Wizard of Works, so I can't answer all Q's.
Installed, it takes about 1.3 meg, including spell checker,
thesarus, and help; but not tutorial. Early MS GUI (select and
print are major menu items), it works pretty well without a mouse,
and configuration has an option for LCD display.

AFAIK, font/size is limited to bold/italic/underline. The only
place font is mentioned is in printer setup in the 400 page
manual. "Save as" options include text/works/printer.

Subject:      LX, packet & TCP/IP

Tonight I used my 200LX and Bay Pac modem to do something that I think is
way cool <grin>. Going through a digipeater and then connecting to the
Nation Weather Service here in Birmingham (our club has a station there) I
telneted to my ISP, checked my mail, sent some mail then downloaded a file
from the internet. Of course the downloading was slow, considering it was a
1200 baud connection to the digipeater and then with all the acknowledgement
packets that had to be sent it took about 30 minutes to download a file that
would normally would have taken about 45 seconds with a dialup connection to
my ISP. The cool thing was that I did this while sitting on my front porch
with my 200LX, Bay Pac modem, FT50 and a antenna made from 5 coat hangers
and a 239 connector. How's that for the ultimate in wireless communications?

I think we LX packeteers need to commision someone to write us a exm packet
program. Bay Comm is nice, but a Sys Manager program would be so slick to
look at and use.

I'm conviced that I gotta learn code now.... I'd love to use my LX for
digital comms on the HF bands.

Hi,

I just thought I would let people know, since there appears to be some
interest. I found a copy of the American Heritage Dictionary for DOS at
Herb's Discount Software in San Jose on Friday, July 3. It comes on 7
5.25" floppies. There were another 4 or so copies on the shelves. If you
want to contact them, the phone number is (408) 453-3870. It cost about
$15.

All my life I wanted to be someone.
I guess I should have been more specific.

Jeff,
When I was upgrading, I found that it worked best for me to receive the code
with a character speed of ~ 18 wpm, slowing it to the desired speed by
increasing the spacing between the characters.  I also tried to practice
_every_ day, even if it was only for 15 minutes.  I set the speed just fast
enough that I couldn't copy 100%, and quit the _instant_ that I became
frustrated.  Sometimes it took an hour, sometimes only a few minutes, but I
found that I lost ground if I pushed myself past frustration.

I stopped studying when I got my advanced, but, if I decide to try for my
extra, I'm going to study code words, not letters, where "and", "the", "or",
and other common words are concerned.  I've heard - from guys who could copy
50+ wpm - that that's what it takes to get past 20 wpm.

Glad you got another bad guy off the streets; now, if the courts _keep_ him
off...  They've had a manhunt going since the first part of June in SW
Colorado/SE Utah for some guys who killed a city cop.  There's still at
least one of them on the loose.  No, the SE doesn't have a corner on them;
I'm not sure whether that's good news or bad news, hmmm?

Subject:      COM1 vs. COM2
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I have a 28800 external modem and a 14400 Megahertz PCMCIA
modem. I use the 28800 external modem at the serial port as
COM1 and get a throughput as expected: To download this mailing
list as a 50KB digest it takes about 20 seconds, which is a net
rate of about 25000 baud.

Using the 14400 baud modem, you would expect about 40 seconds
for the same amount of data. However it takes 4 minutes to
download a 50KB digest via 14400 PCMCIA at COM2. This is a net
rate of about 2000 baud and only 1/7 of what it should be.

First I thought, maybe I had a bad connection or a crowded net
when I was connected with the PCMCIA modem, but it turned out
to be independent: I never get the expected throughput with the
PCMCIA modem, but always with the external modem.

Did anybody make similar observations, and did anybody check,
if the PCMCIA throughput is how it should be?

You may wonder why I put that question, because I am the author
of LXCIC (the modem card enabler) and should know how it works.

However I only put the modem into I/O mode and set up an I/O
window (size=3D8 bytes) at COM2. I cannot use a bigger window,
because of hardware restrictions.

I remember there has been a discussion about up to which baud
rate the palmtop can handle. But I guess this only applies to
COM2, and not to COM1. I use Eric Meyer's ZIP at 115000 baud
every day and always get a transfer rate of 11KB per second at
COM1.

It seems to take some time until a byte finds its way through
a PCMCIA modem into the palmtops memory, compared to the way
through the serial port, or is the MEGAHERTZ the problem?

I had one of those before, but I was able to turn on the LX (albeit with
the "card battery low" msg, but it still worked). I think the power draw
is about 165ma.

There's a handy modem power spec sheet at:

        http://members.aol.com/pdcchrisd/pccrdpwr.txt

that details an assortment of modems and the power requirements. It's
been a while since I've checked the link and I can't verify right now
that it's still active.

What is the negotiated modem-modem connect speed.
An ATW2 command to the modem (check your manual)
will cause the modem to report that.

        Then why when its inserted do I press on and get 2 beeps and it
turns back off?  I had been using a Motorola Montana for a while with
no problems like I'm having now.  Now I can get that to work either.....
2 beeps and turns off.  Same for my IBM modem.  Did I burn something out/
break it?  This palmtop has ALOT of potential, but I'm having alot of doubts
about stability.  It seems its only me, but I can't understand why.  What
should I do?

Is this on battery power?  Keep in mind that battery strength directly
affects the PCMCIA cards you can use.  High-drain cards don't do well with
low batteries.  I would think that it should work if you put in a fresh
pair of NiMH or NiCd batteries, or ran it off of the AC adapter.
(Alkaline batteries would probably work too, but the voltage drop under
load is a lot higher for them, so it's hard to say for sure.)

Personally, my measurements show that the Simple Tech 33.6 Communicator
takes up 125ma active, and works quite well.  I'd recommend that over an
AT&T modem...

I called the guy up and he says he has 24 coppies on CDROM.  I assume
those are the type that need the CD available as the info is kept on the
CD and all that is on the computer is a lookup software.  We told him of
the dos version on floppies and he looked on his shelves and could not
find it.  He does not remember having anything like that on his shelves
either.
Russell, would you be able to drop by some time and buy the other
coppies if they exhist?  My wife and I are interested in buying one.
Let us know...

Thank you
Dan Carrington

You might want to try another 14400 modem, just to test wether the one you
have has some kind of problem.  If the receiver in the modem is funky, it
might be doing a lot of retries until it gets it right.

Best of luck,
Jon

I'm guessing total weight of everything couldn't be more than 1.5 to 2
pounds for everything. The heaviest item is the FT50R.

My experience is that Samson Cables are not bad guys.  They are a very
good source of stuff for HP48 calculator folks, and they carry palmtop
items at reasonable prices (except for the hardware, as has been
mentioned).

For the German speakers among you, they have an interesting-looking
program from Yellow Computing which translates English <-> German (never
tried it myself).

Their price on serial cables is nice, too: $15.

Check 'em out at:
http://muffet.com/samsoncables/products.htm

I have no connection with Samson Cables except that I ordered the HP
Palmtop Software CD-ROM from them and have been happy with it.

Cheers.

   "This is the same high quality cable with IR bead that comes

What is an IR bead?  I have (I think) an original HP cable that came
with the referenced HP SW kit, but it doesn't have anything at all
IR on it, by any stretch of the imagination.  Does this cable have
something to do with the infrared port, perhaps?

Hi all

Y'all know that we have GDB, NDB, and PDB databases,
right?   and that these three groups can be accessed
by the respective icon in sys aps menu.

My question is: does anyone know if and how one can
put more group(s) on the sys aps menu, such as MDB
(miscellaneous) and access it.

Thanks, Yor pal al .....................

     The bead is a ferrite bead. This is the stuff that they used to make
     core memory out of. The ferrite bead is used to stop RF (radio
     frequency) noise from passing through the cable. The bead cuts down on
     background electrical noise, allowing a cleaner signal and higher
     communication speeds on the cable.

     I would suspect that the terms RF and IR just got confused.

You know you can open any amount of databases from with each type of
program.  Also, you can create macros that will load any database within
the appropriate program.  Also, you can create batch files that enter
keystrokes that will load any database into it's program.  Also, you can
use Buddy and within each program hit F9 and see a list of openable
files along the function key menu.  As to the icon for each program,
.pdb, .ndb, .gdb, the program will open with the last file it had open.
The program is not intended to only have one file, just to automatically
open it's appropirate file extension type.  If you changed a file called
phone.pdb to phone.gdb it would open within the database program as
opposed to the phone book.

  Preferably with sys aps only.  KISS.

  Yes I know that any DB can be accessed, but I want
  to see a group, as MDB, from which to choose from
  which I can do with GDB, NDB, abd PDB.

My pal al .....................

Sounds like you're looking for SMMLX System More Menu.
With SMMLX you can open all or any of your GDB, NDB, and PDB databases =
from
it own seperate icon.

MoreEXM and EXkey is also needed to fully utilize the functions of
SMMX.

All of the above software can  be found at: http://www.thaddeus.com
look under Japanese software.

Subject:      AOL1.6 on HP200LX w/ pc card modem
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

I need help with AOL1.6 on my 200LX. I have successfully installed the s/w,
configured it for com2 (pc card modem), and set my local access phone
number. The aol program never finds the modem. I inserted both M1 and L2 in
the modem initialization string so I should be able to hear the dial tone,
touch tones, ring, and synch tones. When I tell it to Sign On, it responds
with silence-not even a dial tone. I monitored the telephone line and indeed
the pc card modem is not doing anything. Then the aol message to try again
later. I do not have an external modem to try it with. I know the modem is
working fine because I use www/lx and post for my email on another isp. TIA
for any help.

Do you have the driver loaded?  The line:

    d:\bin\cic100 /gen 1

should be in your autoexec.bat file.

Comments: To: jjohnson@TMCC.COM

Jim, I read your msg below and was wondering...
Did you try the Ctrl+Shift+ON "System-Reset" keystroke?

If you do use this, you should be able to answer "N" no to the "Initialize
RAM Disk?" question and be back in business in less than a minute with
almost no data loss.  I'm mentioning this to the list because you're the
2nd person in less than two days who's mentioned a lockup they couldn't get
out of without pulling batteries.  Neither time was the reset keystroke
mentioned and aparently there are too many people who simply don't know
about it or have forgotten...

Doing software development on my LX, about once a month I experience a
lockup that the standard Ctrl+Alt+Del won't recover.  Using the
Ctrl+Shift+ON reset keystroke has only once failed to get me back working
without having to loose anything....

  Good luck,
          ... JLS

I just to emphasise that this is a last resort, as it *can* wipe
everything (but doesn't usually).  Also sometimes resets the date and
time. But as John says, a much better deal than pulling batteries!

Once for me too. Not a pleasant experience! Uuuurrggghh...

This would require the release of documentation for, or reverse
engineering of, the WWW/LX <-> HV interface - which D&A do not
distribute (for obvious business reasons).

I was going to reverse engineer it once, but then I realised that D&A
would probably sue me if I released code that worked with the
interface, so I stopped before I began.

Such is life, trying to interface freeware programs with commercial
programs.  The same legal roadblock stops an LXPOP <-> CCMail
interface.

Hello Kazuto and other members,

Many thanks for your reply via the HPLX Mailing List to my enquiry
(and others) about the 100LX memory upgrade.

On Wednesday, 1 July, you  listed three difficulties in achieving
this:-

< a) To get the TNS memory board outside Japan
        TNS doesn't accept foreign order.

< b)  Soldering skills and tools
         I think your 100LX (SG333) has no memory connector on the
         mother board, so you have to solder about 40 wires! Even
         later version of 100LX needs some wires. And some special
         tools requires, microscope, thin solder          iron...

< c) Support
        I can't support when problem occurs. (time and English
        skill)

You then added that you can't recommend the upgrade, but concluded by
asking if I still wanted to try.

In other replies on this subject you indicated that you had no
commercial interest in carrying  out such an upgrade.

I am trying to draw all threads of this matter together once and for
all for the benefit of 100LX  owners generally as there are obviously
still many of us left and there is still interest in memory upgrading.

Possibly the first difficulty (a) could be got round if it is a just a
question of foreign currency; and it would not be a problem for USA
users.

For those of us without facilities and/or skills, the second
difficulty (b) comes down to finding a reliable helper...no doubt some
users will have a friend or contact who might help out on a once off
basis (it is frustrating to think that I have made extensive use of
and have easy access to both light and scanning electron microscopes
but have done only crude soldering jobs!).  There may be a commercial
alternative if the work required is not extensive and the cost not
prohibitive, as I have found on a previous upgrade situation.

The third difficulty (c) is probably the most critical, for unless
there are detailed instructions with the TNS memory board in the first
place, there would be very few users with the necessary knowledge to
proceed with problem (b).  If you (Kazuto) are not interested, do you
know of anyone else who is?  Hewlett Packard seems to have long since
lost interest.  Mack Baggette is presumably not interested (?).  There
was, however, a response to this problem from a certain Spanish
user...  Are there any other enterprising users?

Presumably if this message generates no positive response we can
conclude that the matter of upgrading the memory of the 100LX is dead,
except of course in the case of some existing user wanting to sell off
an already upgraded unit.

RIP?

I need help with AOL1.6 on my 200LX. I have successfully installed the s/w,
configured it for com2 (pc card modem), and set my local access phone
number. The aol program never finds the modem. I inserted both M1 and L2 in
the modem initialization string so I should be able to hear the dial tone,
touch tones, ring, and synch tones. When I tell it to Sign On, it responds
with silence-not even a dial tone. I monitored the telephone line and
indeed
the pc card modem is not doing anything. Then the aol message to try again
later. I do not have an external modem to try it with. I know the modem is
working fine because I use www/lx and post for my email on another isp. TIA
for any help.

# Item Subject: Samson Cables
#      The bead is a ferrite bead. This is the stuff that they used to make
#      core memory out of. The ferrite bead is used to stop RF (radio
#      frequency) noise from passing through the cable. The bead cuts down on
#      background electrical noise, allowing a cleaner signal and higher
#      communication speeds on the cable.
#      I would suspect that the terms RF and IR just got confused.

# -something to do with the infrared port, perhaps?
# --Chris Lott


Want to make a correction here.  The bead does indeed stop RF
interference, but not from background noise.  It is intended to prevent
the HP200 from interfering with any adjacent electronic devices.  It
may (doubtful) prevent other devices from interfering with the 200LX,
but that is not the primary intent.  In fact, in this application,
since the ferrite tends to filter out high frequencies, (ie >1MHz ) it
will actually tend to round off the square wave data signals passing
between the 200LX and the connected device, causing the max speed
the two devices can use to be degraded.  This is something that makes
for a lot of hair pulling and gnashing of teeth.  When trying to tame
EMI/RFI, there are always price-performance compromises to be made.

Subject:      EXP Modem

If anyone on the list is interested I have a EXP ThinFax Basic LX modem that
I would like to sell or possibly just trade for a spare 14.4 modem. The
Basic LX is a 2400bps data/9600 fax modem. It has the MiniFax software built
into the ROM of the modem card so the software doesn't take up any space on
the C: drive. The ThinFax software, in my opinion, is the slickest fax
software for the palmtop. It looks and behaves just like the software that
comes in ROM on the LX. In the past I tried some of the other available fax
software and it either didn't work for me or left a lot to be desired. The
2400bps data rate of the modem is slow, but for pure email use or for a text
based shell type session the speed is acceptable. The benefit of the slow
speed is the longevity of battery life.

I would like to trade this modem for a 14.4 modem or would consider some
other type of trade or cash offer.

Have any of the other LX packeteers on the list thought about forming a
channel on the packet network? I was thinking about it while chatting
with a gentleman in Perth. We were discussing our rigs and he was quite
amazed that I was sitting on my front porch operating QRP packet via a
200LX, FT50R and a coat hanger <grin>.

Try AT&FX3. The X3 Seems to be necessary in Europe.

BTW : You need to use a Sprintnet node with AOL 1.6 and AFAIK Sprintnet
has quit service for DOS-AOL.

Its current requirements are too high, that's why it's
happening.

Alkalines don't handle heavy loads as well as Nicads. If you
had the AC plugged in or Nicads then it might not happen.

Thats because when you use the on button you are turning it off
and on in the software. Oviously the unit can't handle the sudden
drop in current when you insert the modem and you're locking up
the software.
When you do the ctrl-shift-on you do a
complete hardware and software reset. Because the modem is already
inserted you don't have any sudden drops. You need that stuff anyway if you're
going to use a modem. Otherwise you'll be buying alkalines
every couple days. Bad for the enviroment.

David's done a very good review of the Simple 33.6k modem
on his website. Read it. The address is on the bottom of his
posts. Since you have three other modems that don't work you
can always sell them and recoup your loss.

What was the travel time for your chat messages? It has been my
experience that keyboarding through digi's and nodes is a time consuming
experience.

Or are you one of the fortunate ones that live within node shot of an HF

The modem manufacturers mostly built these things to be used with
laptops, not palmtops with a couple wimpy AA batts.  The nicads or

Been using the Simple Tech 33.6 communicator for about 4 months now.
Operation is flawless, not too bad for power consumption, do not have
to reboot to use it.  DO have to turn the 200 off before inserting it,
which one should do anyway.  Is fast and easy to use.  What else to
say?  Dont know anyone who is not happy with thiers.

Has anyone come across battery chargers that claim to recharge alkaline
and zinc-chloride batteries, as well as Alkaline, NiCd and NiMh
rechargeables ?

The 'innovations' catalogue here (like Brookstones in the US?) has the
'Ultra' battery manager.

It mentions that it uses 'pulse charge technology', so I guess it does
just that to avoid exploding batteries.  But will it work ? If you could
recharge standard alkaline or ZnCl batteries that would be cheap.

Hello All.

I am about to invest in a flash ram card and modem.

I have the 32mb upgrade, and need the PCMCIA card to back up the memory.  This means at least a 32mb card.  I am thinking Compact Flash and an adapter, because I can then use the card later in CF hardware as well.

I am also going to buy a modem.  I am looking for a 56kbps, global, less than 150mA current draw fax/voice modem.  I am still in the process of finding out is this exists.  The closest so far is a Pace Technologies modem, but it drew 180mA.  It works in the palmtop, but when online for a while and downloading large amounts, it is a balancing trick to get the screen to display anything.  This is so that I can get the one modem for my palmtop and laptop.

With the modem, if what I want above does not exist, I would buy the cheapest GLOBAL modem available.  I need to use it in Australia, UK, USA, and Europe.

Does anyone know of a reliable place to buy either of these at a good cost?

I have seen a 32mb cf with adapter from www.applemacnet.com for USD 174.00  This was from Apex Data.  Any info on this brand?

Any help would be appreciated, and I welcome offers from vendors.

Please email to david.eggins@usa.net if you do not think it benefits the list members.

Thank You

Hello All

Just thaught I would tell you that I saw a 260 MB PCMCIA flash RAM card for 425 USD at

www.netsales.net

This was advertised as being for the Hitachi MPeg Cam, and manufactured by Hitachi.

Any chances this would work in the HP?  I also saw that typically, 80mb cards were well over that price.

I'm lucky enough to be able to connect to the gateway without going
through a digipeater, and while chatting to the guy in Perth the lag time
was quite acceptable.

Why not use the Trans Digital par-card PC-Card interface in order to
connect to a 100-ZIP drive as well. Device can be use by other machine
too.

I'm sure I've seen a thread along these lines but has anyone set up
their HP to dial into palmtop.com using a pay phone, long distance? I'm
thinking you would need to have two different dialing commands, one for
the number you are dialing and one for your calling card number.

I notice quite a few payphones now have a jack you can plug into
(especially in airports). Thought this might be kind of handy for
checking email when you're out of town.

Thanks

Hi, David:

We have a full line of CF cards available and will price match and beat any
price you can find. See http://www.shoresystems.net

I don't know if you'll notice much difference between a 33.6 and a 56k modem
on a palmtop. Certainly, it isn't evident on a 620/660LX. FWIW, the Simple
Technology http://www.simpletech.com Communicator 33.6 with SimpleJack works
fine with the 200LX and draws 140mA.

The card works fine in North America, Europe and the Lucky Country. The New
Zealand Army just bought 10 of them and is using them happily with a 360LX.
We have these in stock for $129, including delivery.

I also have a Simple Tech 56k Global Communicator modem/LAN card available.
It is a 56k/GSM/ISDN modem and a LAN Card, approved for use in over 70
countries. However, it draws 170mA.

Reply via email if interested.

Could you please confirm that URL? The price and item sound like a misprint,
as the largest Type II PC Card I am aware of right now is the Simple and
Viking 160MB. SanDisk has a 270MB Type III card.

I did this almost exclusively while on a camping vacation last month.
Bought an acoustic coupler, and used www/lx and post for my e-mail.
It helped that I have an 800 number to call up my ISP - that's fewer
digits to fool with, and no coins involved.  I noticed that some
pay phones would work like a champ, and others wouldn't even work
at 2400 baud direct dial-up (terminal access, not PPP).

Found this at one campground, to my astonishment.  That made life much
easier.

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

I know that the synchronization with Lotus Notes has come up before (I am
new to list, I searched the archives), but I would like to take a different
tack...

Has anyone used Puma's Intellisync to synchronize the HP with Lotus
Organizer 2.1?  Does it work with Organizer GS?  Has anyone taken the extra
step of importing/exporting schedules to/from Notes, then into the HP?  My
goal is to have at least my schedule, if not also my contacts, synchronize
with Notes...

Any ideas?

Some users have reported problems with newer flash cards when
LXCIC was loaded resident. I fixed that bug in the new version
and added the manufacturer ID string to the status display.
Now you may always see, which card is inserted in your palmtop.

        Check closer. EVERY one I ever tried said "THIS OPTION CURRENTLY
NOT AVAILABLE".  I have been able to plug into machines touting FAX.
Or, just hope that QuickAid installs more kiosks in more airports. I
used the one at Newark .

Comments: cc: rclott@RO.COM

Yeah, I'm still amazed that the PC people have totally abandoned
programmable device independent plotting routines in favor of
pie charts and excel. I got sucked into doing Twin, the first
123 clone after I did softplot, and I got too discouraged to think
about doing a C version, but maybe because of this group, I'll
slap together versions for VB, C++ and Java once I dust off the
GWBASIC version. Yes, it does basic 3d perspective line drawing,
and has a hidden line surface drawing program too, basic axis
without labeling, with some effort,labeling could be added too.

There a package called PENPLOT that was still in use at MIT
which as a FORTRAN version of this.

At the time, there was a big push for "core" and "GKS" which
were just monstrosities that never really caught on.

I recently started using this service from home.  It works great.  I have
already tried Goin' Postal and Nettamer with limited sucess. Neither one
worked first time and I am still having problems, but ccMail worked great
first time.  I do not have an answer for entering the calling card number,
but I am working on it.  If you have sucsess with it, please let me know.

The ccMail service is free, but if you pay a one time fee you also get POP3
access as well.

I am not affilliated with palmtop.com in any way.....just a happy user.


Hope this helps,
Jon

What ISP do you have that has an 800 number, and what do they charge ?

Anyone have leads on a 14.4k or faster pocket modem? I normally swap my
flash card and PCMCIA modem several times at home and decided to just use a
pocket modem and the serial port if I could find one cheap (about $50).

Looked at online auctions and such, but there's none to be found in the $50
or less range. Even an external modem may do, but it'd be in an area that's
already overloaded with power cords and I'd rather do this via batteries if
possible. Thanks.

- Longden

BTW. I have a spare IR printer interface if anyone wants to swap for a 14.4k
pocket modem or $50 cash. Doesn't work for file xfers and I don't have the
box or manual (but have the software disk and AC adapter).  This is the
Extended Systems JetEye ESI-9510 IR Printer Port. I have a 2nd one that I
use occasionally with my 200LX.

Well there are 3 reasons I use LXTCP instead of WWW/LX:
 1) Cost (free)
 2) Flexibility (I can piece together the utilities any way I wish)
 3) Open interface (WATTCP and LXTCP both with source code)

Now if D&A were to make a WATTCP verion of HV I would give up #1.  Of
course this is dependent upon the price, but I would be willing to pay
$30 right now for this and would consider a higher price.

This might be a good way to try to profit from those who do not wish to
use WWW/LX.  To be honest I wouldn't mind giving D&A some money.  Along
with their commercial programs they have brought several good freeware
programs to the HPLX community.  I am just not willing to buy and
install an additional PPP interface just to have a web browser.

I am sure that it wouldn't adversely effect the sales of WWW/LX, due to
its strengths:
 1) Ease of use
 2) Integration
 3) Wonderful support (seen it right here on the list)

Who else would be interested in a WATTCP version of HV?  Maybe with
enough interest we could rally D&A to bring us LXTCP users the only
application that we are really missing.

On the other hand Avi may just thumb his nose at me a give me a Bronx
Cheer (Plllbbbbt! :-)

Hi Al

I believe an icon starting a batch file set up correctly might do it.

ie   Data.bat

Choose variable

if M  open MDB
if Z open ZDB

Save Mdb or Zdb depending

Are there any BAT file Guru's that could write something to do this or is it
redundant?

I have successfully used payphones with dataports to log in
to my ISP.  Specifically, the phones were in the Minneapolis/
St. Paul airport and I had NO problems.

To add information to another thread, I often use an ISP's 800
number.  The ISP is Iowa Network Services (www.netins.net)
and costs 15 or 16 cents per minute.  To get the 800 service
one has to have an existing account, I think.  They offer
telnet accounts with a Unix shell for $5 per month.

you can put commas in the dialing string at the places where the phone
credit card delays between responses.

also you can use the manual dial feature. If you use this then when
you hear the phone ring (before the server connects), quickly press
ENTER on the HP. If you wait until the server answers then it is
difficult to make the connection.

Hi,

        This is just a short update to the situation. Several people,
both on and off the list, have asked if I could go to Herb's Software and
pick up the last few copies of this program. Ordinarily, this would be
possible, but since this would take an hour or so for the trip and I'm
getting married in a few weeks, I really don't have the time to spare.
Perhaps someone else on the list who lives in the San Jose, CA area could
do so, but it would be a least the middle of August before I would be
able to spare the time. Sorry.

I guess I should have been more specific.

This surprises me. It is simple enough to see the structure of the files
created by CCMail, so why would it be a breach of copyright to write a
format converter?

I wouldn't have thought it would be, but when I suggested the project
on this list, a well-respected member of the list advised me that a
colleague had been sued by Lotus for exactly that on the desktop.

From my "down-under" point of view, it seems that anything you do in
the U.S.A. that impinges on someone else's business is fair game for a
legal threat, regardless of the technical details.

I made this same suggestion in a note to this list yesterday. It
probably could be made to work, but for one who'd have to do it daily,
I'm not sure it'd be worth the trouble. And I'm afraid it'd be error
prone.

Nonetheless, I'd be anxious to hear if anyone tried it. So far, I
haven't had the time to try (and I don't have the requisite Intellisync)

You can at least partially recharge alkalines, but I'm not sure it's
worth the effort, and would be reluctant to use them in a computer or
ant critical application.

NiCads are a different story. They're of course rechargeable, even with
a simple uncontrolled circuit. But there's good evidence that
sophisticated chargers, that look at battery temperature, rate of rise
of voltage under charge, etc can recharge these cells faster and/or give
them a longer service life. Some of the techniques do indeed use pulse
charging. However, a word of caution: I'd want to know that the device
is truly controlled, preferably with a custon uP chip, and see its
charge characteristics. There's a lot of junk out there which is
overhyped. (If I had any doubts about overhype being a local (ie US)
phenomenon-which I didn't-they were dispelled by my recent trips to
England-it's as bad as here!

As for carbon zinc-yes you can get somew additional life out of them
too, but less than alkalines. They're almost obsolete though for most
electronic equipment-the internal resistance is high, and the power
density is low, so you'd get a short run time even from new ones.

Hope this helps.
Eben

Does anyone have any experience using a Megahertz Gold Series 14400 Fax

With my ISP, normally connects at 28.8, occasionally 31.x.  Have Goin'
Postal set at 57,600 data rate, which works well.  This has been a
great little modem.  Dumped my Megahertz 28.8 card on my son for his
laptop, where that works fine and power consumption is not an issue.
The power consumption of the ST modem in my 200 seems to be about
130mA, well within the 200LX pcmcia port's ability.

Rayovac has a type of alkaline battery that can be recharged.  It is great
for using in flash lights and stuff that you don't want batteries to self
discharge in.  It doesn't seem to do real well in the palm top because of
the voltage discharge curve.  The reason I mention this is because the
charger used for these is a pulse type charger.  (never got brave enough to
try "regular" alkalines in the charger.   Some friends of mine have tried
to use chargers claimed to work on alkalines.  The comment I remember was
that the regular alkalines wouldn't take a charge if they were discharged
much and that they never really got back to a full charge.  I hope Rayovac
can get their battery improved.

 Hi All, way back in the 1980s ,I devised something called
softplot/bgl for gwbasic,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I work for a local government that last month surplussed off two HP E sized
pen plotters - both of them work horses - they were 3 & 5 years old, spoke
HPGL/2 ( or whatever AutoCAD still uses), one even came with dozens of
unused pens in various color & widths... Our office has a nice HP inkjet,
so no need, but a struggling A/E or student even could do some great
(albeit, noisey) plots forever for  under $200.  5 years ago I'd have given
up an employee for one of those (well . I'd have seriously considered which
one...)  Govt auctions, especially local well funded ones sell some stuff
real cheap (our iSD guys strip all the chips & hard drives out of the PCs,
rendering the cpu's worth their value as recycled solder vs. hazmat
disposal costs- go figure.  who'd buy a 286 anyway..., especially a PS/2?

http://www.microsoft.com/ithome/topics/year2k/product/word5.htm

I guess I'm lucky I never got attached to Word 5.0 on the palmtop,
preferring 5.5. Some people in my office still use Word 5.0 (on their
Pentium 166 desktops!)... I guess this means I'd better wean them away.
:)

Does anybody know what the requirements for Word 6.0 for DOS are?

Hi Ignacio,

I'm sorry to late reply.

Yes, I think so too.

I think TNS 16/32MB upgrade board doesn't encode from four RAS lines.
The 64Mbit DRAM chip behave as equal number of row and column
by extra chip(s).
But I don't know what kind of trick they used.

I didn't see the TNS 8MB board but I have the same opinion.

That's same as my design. :)

Indeed, so I could design board as double side (not multi-layer).

No, 200LX BIOS (original RAM disk driver) can handle up to 32MB.
So if you remove DRAM from motherboard and jump a new 32MB RAS line
to RAS0, it work fine without any other RAM disk driver.
Also 512kB(RAS0) plus 32MB(RAS1) is OK. because system use 640kB.

I hope success of this project.
This will provide happiness for many 100LX users.

I heard someone that Times2Tech upgrade is BANK3=32MB and rd32 driver can
handle that 32MB as f: drive.

So, I think 64.5MB is theoretically possible to use rd32 driver
when memory bank allocation is 0.5+32+0+32MB.

Hi,

I'm trying to convert my 100LX's phone database to the format used by the
PalmPilot Professional PDA using the software package LX2Pilot found at
www.pilotgear.com.

GDBIO 0.93 is used to extract the records, but it fails with my phonebook
which has about 400 records. The error message is produced: "Fatal error:
too many fixed fields". The same error occurs with my other custom-built
databases as well.

Can someone please help me solve this error, or suggest another method to
accomplish the task? TIA.

Incurable???  I think a better description would be that it costs
too much money to fix, and MS chose not to fix it.  I would be
surprised to learn that the problem was technically impossible to
fix...

LXCIC returns as errorlevel the card's ID. Please see LXCIC.DOC
for an explanation of the ID meanings.

The ID however may not be precise enough if you want to
distinguish two cards which have the same ID.

I thought of implementing as errorlevel the first character of
the manufacturer string. But this would have made it hard to check
in a batch file, because errorlevel check always is a
'smaller or equal to' comparison. Thus your batch file would
become very lengthy to check for a special character.

I also thought of setting up an environment variable, but found
no way on how to do that within a program. AFAIK you may check
for an environment variable in a program, but to set up one,
you have to use the batch/commmand line 'SET' command.

I have the relevant information which is stored in the modem's
CIS (Card Information Structure) of a

-Megahertz XJACK 14400
-Megahertz XJACK 14400 Gold Series

they are completely identical. That means, for a software, to
work with these two modems, they appear identical. The hardware
and inner working of the modems however may be different.

The CIS contains information about used UART, flow control,
supported protocols, compression etc. Both modems are identical
as far as this level is concerned.

The pulse chargers require you to recharge your alkaline batteries
frequently (i.e. when they reach about 90%). Other than that, they
seem to work. I use NiCads in my palmtop.

IBM has 800 numbers and access points all over the world.
Check  them out at www.ibm.net.
I work for IBM so it's possible I'm biased.  :-)

Yes you can.

We use Outlook and it is sort of OK.  I've tried using GP, and to my
amazement it worked first time (even though I have to get through a
SecurID challenge).  However the version of Exchange server being used
matters.  We have version 5.0, which gives us POP3 access.  With POP3
you only get to see the Inbox & Outbox, you cannot see any otherfolders
you create.

We are hoping to persuade the corporate messaging folk that when we go
to version 5.5 they will enable the IMAP service too, which will allow
you to see all the folders.  But then I'll need to change to use PC-Pine
most likely (though I stand to be shot down by other list members on
this).  PC-Pine uses IMAP only, no POP3 support; in fact in their readme
files they positively sneer at POP3 !

With IMAP we will be able to use all sorts of clients, all of which are
*much* faster than Outlook; so Psion, Unix and other users (like me)
will be able to use their own choice client as the main system, not just
for remote access.

BTW with GP I noticed that it did not delete any mails from the server,
so every time you go in you get the same mails again - the readme said
that BWR, it always deletes the mail - you can see the commands being
issued, they just don't seem to do anything.

If the commands are issued, and GP makes it through the QUIT and gets
a reply to the QUIT then something must be configured wrong on the
Exchange server.  DELE flags the messages for deletion, and the POP
server is supposed to perform the deletes upon successful QUIT.

Has anyone written a program to directly download information from the
200LX to a Rolodex Rex?  I know we all believe the 200LX to be ideal sized
computer for what it does, but there is something nice about having an
even smaller card with phone and calendar information.

If this does not exist, has anyone indirectly imported the data via a
second computer?  Advice would be appreciated.

Hi.
Is there any particular reason why you are looking for a Compact Flash
card as opposed to a normal Type II ATA Flash card?  CF cards are usually
more expensive and require an adapter to be used in the 200LX.

Also, if you use PKZIP to compress the files, you can probably get by with
a smaller memory card.  However, compressing 32 MB of files would take an
eternity...

Check out Marcan Distributing (http://www.marcan-dist.com).  They have
Simple Technology flash cards (Type II ATA as well as CF) for good prices.
A secondary bonus for ordering from them is that they sponsor the SUPER
site :)

(I have no connection with Marcan, although I may order a 40 MB flash card
from them this morning.)

Cheers.

I'm pretty skeptical about that.  Could be or maybe he's just
acting innocent.  It's easy to believe someone could be fooled
about Transfile since that's not so well known, but those high
prices for the palmtop are pretty silly.

Can you elaborate on this?  I had heard in the past that CF cards were
cheaper, although a cursory examination of advertised prices didn't
bear this out.  I have always used Type II full sized PCMCIA cards.
My mother was recently asking for advice on Flash cards, and asked
about compact flash.  What's really cheaper???

I have to agree with you, Avi.  Even though I'm skeptical about

If you do this, put the one you usually  use on A: because that's the

I didn't keep any urls but a few months ago I did an Altavista web search
for other etext sites and I found a lot of them.  More than I could have
looked at in a week.  I don't remember what search phrase I used but I
think I found them pretty quickly.  I didn't save any urls because it was
so easy and I was sure I could find them again.

Also I found a page on Yahoo that lists a lot of etext sites.

Many years ago, during the days of the 95 LX, there was a program called
Notepad.  It was a free format information organizer.  It was very flexible
indeed and wonder if anyone on this list knows:
1.  Has there been an update to that program to allow it to run on the 200 LX?
2.  Is there another program with the same capabilities out there?

Here's a paragraph or two about Notepad taken from printed material I
received when I purchased it:

"Notepad deals primarily with text files, such as those produced by MEMO.
NOtepad considers a text file to be composed of "pages," which are
separated by "pagebreaks."  A pagebreak can be inserted in a text file by
the Pgbrk (F10) command in MEMO.  Notepad adds several capabilities to
MEMO:  it provides the ability to view a file as pages, it adds other
organizing operations such as the ability to hide pages selectively, it
provides powerful searching commands, and it supports hypertext navigation.
 In addition, Notepad can read and write files used by APPOINTMENT and
PHONE, and can prepare files for input to 1-2-3."

Thanks,

Carol

If you take a look at the prices for palmtops and for flash cards, they're
exactly the same as the prices were from HP and Educalc and what not two
or three years ago.  Which supports what he said: his supplier gave him an
outdated catalog.

Apparently he's been in the business of cables and 48 calculators for a
while, but just started carrying palmtops / etc. in the last few weeks.

I use Tasm 3.1 on my 200lx.  I've tried to use Turbo debug with it, and
since mine is an earlier version (you probably have 4.0 or later since
I think I've used 3.5 on mine) it loads fine.  But it crashes too soon
to be useful.

I have access to a lot of debuggers and I've tried every version of Turbo
debug that I have, which is every one from the original to the one with
BC++ 3.1, which of course doesnt work.  None of them have been stable
enough to use.

I've tried every version of Codeview that doesnt need a 386.  They all
lock up.  I've tried the debugger that came with Power C and it locks up.
I registered PCC in the days when it shipped with a debugger and it works
till you go into graphics mode.  Then it crashes.  The same is true for
D86, the debugger that ships with A86.  It's fine till you go into graphics
mode.

I just haven't been able to find a real good symbolic source level debugger
that will work on the 200lx.  It's almost debugger proof.  :)

But not quite.  If you can get a copy of Microsoft's Symdeb, which is a
Dos Debug lookalike, but with a lot more ability, it works fine with Tasm
or Masm.  You need Mapsym also to convert the map files from the linker
to symbol files.

Symdeb will debug asm code symbolically.  You cant define your own symbols
in it easily, but you can fake it by adding them to the map file before
running Mapsym.  It lets you use symbols instead of addresses in all it's
commands.

If you're using Turbo C as well, compile and link with -y which gives you
line numbers and Symdeb will debug it on the source level or the disassembly
level or both combined.  It will let you do things line G .122 which is the
Go command with a breakpoint at line 122.  You can use line numbers in place
of symbols in most, but not all, places.

I still miss Turbo debugger and Codeview but this is not a bad substitute.
It's one of the nicest things to come from Microsoft, I think.

Hi Barry & All:

386spart.par is the file that windows created when you create an
extended memory partition to augment available RAM. If you don't use
Windoes, you don't need it!

Compact flash cards are cheaper than full size ones by quite a lot.
The 40 meg compaq flash is now $249 at Office Depot and probably a lot
cheaper on the web.  The 40 meg ones don't come with adapters but the
15 meg and 20 meg ones do.  I bought an adapter from CDW on the web for
$10.95.

I also went to SanDisk's page and checked the specs on both and they're
virtually identical.

I've been using the 15meg and 20 meg cards for about a year and the
adapter is very well designed so that it fits the card snugly and fits
in the palmtop smoothly.  It's a very good design, not something they
just threw together.  When the card is in the adapter it seems just like
a pcmcia card.

By the way, the adaptor is supposed to be good for 10,000 insertions on
either end.  It will probably outlast the card.

Uh, 40MB type II (full size) flash cards are more like $180 now, on the
web...

One advantage of CompactFlash is that they're pretty fast compared to
older Type II cards, but then again, most type II cards are just as fast
now.

I wonder how many vendors just plug a CF into a Type II case and let it go
at that? Seems easy enough to do and saves to some extent on dual product
development and production. If that were the case, I'd expect the cost of
comparable capacities and perfomances to be close.

Add a buck or two for the extra iron <g>.

Judging from my current measurements, powering it down means it goes down
to using 10ma.

Avi is not that quick to dismiss anything. He is reading and
collecting all the messages on this topic, BTW. He is not
going to comment as yet, he has nothing to say so far.

Keep talking. I am not alone in this, and my partner is also
reading all this stuff, and we are discussing certain issues.
I also think it is important for us to hear from other
individuals. So far, we have always benefitted from all
feedback, and almost all criticisms (except the meanspirited,
empty ones, naturally...) so this is goodness...

How is that for an anti-Bronx Cheer? :-) I bet encouraging...

I used the RayOVac rechargeable alkalines in my 95LX, and they were fine.
They don't last as long as NiCads, which I use in the 200LX.  But in any
case I think the original msg concerned the recharging of ordinary
alkalines.  I have never tried that.

Subject:      Restrict task to certain Software Carousel Work Area(s)

I occasionally forget which SC Work Area I was in and started multiple
copies of the same application (usually WWW/LX).  This wasn't a good
thing to do as they weren't aware of each other were trying to modify
the same data.

The fix I came up is to add a version of this line to the Work Area
Startup .BAT file for each of my Software Carousel Work Areas:

  SET PROMPTx=%PROMPT%

...where 'x' is the Work Area number; i.e. PROMPT2 for the 2nd Work Area.

In the .BAT file I use to start WWW/LX I have the following lines:

  if (%prompt2%)==() goto xit
  www.exe -d "!post"
  :xit

Change '%prompt2%' to which ever Work Area you want your application
restricted to run in.

If this application startup .BAT file is run while in Work Area 3 then
the environment variable for 'PROMPT2' will not be set so the test for
nul will be true causing the .BAT file to abort by branching to the
exit point of the .BAT file.

Cheers...

Hi, James:

I'd like to address a few points that have been made concerning CF vs PC =
Cards in my capacity as a reseller of them.

First, CFs are not more expensive than PC Cards but are generally the =
same as or less than PC Cards. Yes, an adapter is necessary if one =
wishes to use the card in a PC Card slot, but $10-15 for an adapter is a =
relative drop in the bucket.

Second, CF cards are increasingly the form factor of choice for embedded =
systems and small form-factor devices used for digital imaging and =
mobile computing. The "memory road-map" I have from three Orange County =
manufacturers suggests that the capacity of the cards will increase to =
128MB by fall COMDEX and could go up to 196MB by the middle of next =
year. Arguments as to "who needs that much memory on a palmtop" sound =
much like Bill Gates' comment once that 640KB ought to be enough memory =
for most users.

Third, CFs have an advantage many PC Cards don't have: Dual Voltage. =
This enables them to be used in older, 5 volt systems such as the 200LX =
while retaining compatibility with newer 3.3 volt devices like digicams =
and handhelds such as PSion and the 6x0LX.

Fourth, as I have pointed out before on this forum, beware of the MAJOR =
differences between Sandisk and other cards. Sandisk cards are binary or =
double density flash with a continuous data transfer rate of 50-250KB =
per second, versus 710KB/second for Viking, Simple and Kingston cards. =
Sandisk IS NOT RECOMMENDED for digital cameras because of its =
horrendously slow write/erase speeds. Viking, Simple are faster, cheaper =
and have a much better - 5 year - warranty, than Sandisk.

Finally, Shore Systems WILL PRICE MATCH AND BEAT any comparable price on =
the web, and we always include shipping in our prices so that the buyer =
knows EXACTLY what his/her purchase will cost. We have no add on charges =
for credit cards, processing or "buying club fees". If the prices on our =
website aren't the cheapest, let us know and we'll make sure that you =
get the lowest possible price.

Hi.
Is there any particular reason why you are looking for a Compact Flash
card as opposed to a normal Type II ATA Flash card?  CF cards are =
usually
more expensive and require an adapter to be used in the 200LX.

Also, if you use PKZIP to compress the files, you can probably get by =
with
a smaller memory card.  However, compressing 32 MB of files would take =
an

Check out Marcan Distributing (http://www.marcan-dist.com).  They have

prices.
A secondary bonus for ordering from them is that they sponsor the SUPER

(I have no connection with Marcan, although I may order a 40 MB flash =

As a general rule, CFs are cheaper, but not by a lot. The only real =

Can you elaborate on this?  I had heard in the past that CF cards were
cheaper, although a cursory examination of advertised prices didn't
bear this out.  I have always used Type II full sized PCMCIA cards.
My mother was recently asking for advice on Flash cards, and asked
about compact flash.  What's really cheaper???

Exactly right, but the PC Cards will remain popular because of their ability to host larger memory densities.

I wonder how many vendors just plug a CF into a Type II case and let it go
at that? Seems easy enough to do and saves to some extent on dual product
development and production. If that were the case, I'd expect the cost of
comparable capacities and perfomances to be close.

Add a buck or two for the extra iron <g>.

Barry,

I am skeptical too, that is why I used the words "he may be"
in my post. I do not knmow for sure. Neither do you, and there
is skepticism. This healthy. It is also good to approach
people with an assumption that they are not automatically
cheats or bastards.

The suggestion to "stick it to him" was repugnant. I felt
personally insulted and degraded by it.

Do you think there are any differences between
compact and ATA full cards of equal capacity?

As a traveler, compacts are smaller so that one can
have more back up.  The slight extra cost is made
up in weight saving. Hard core travelers will cut the
length of their toothbrush to reduce weight and bulk.

I looked at Marcan and CNNSHOPER last night. I don't mind supporting
Marcan for their support of the SUPER site.
I would, if their choices are not so limited and their
prices were not higher.

Hi
"I wonder how many vendors just plug a CF into
a Type II case and let it go at that? Seems
easy enough to do and saves to some extent
on dual product development and production.
If that were the case, I'd expect the cost of
comparable capacities and perfomances to be close.

Add a buck or two for the extra iron <g>."

Add a buck or $8 for the adapter <g> and they
are more or less equal, except for the size,
and weight.

Now that I've thought about the Software Carousel Work Area tests
I showed earlier I realize it is a bit cleaner if I leave the PROMPT
out of it.  (I was originally playing with the Prompt because it
has the Work Area id in it as set by SC.)


In each Work Area Startup BAT file add a line like this:

  SET SCWA=x

...where 'x' is the Work Area number; i.e. SCWA=2 for the 2nd Work Area.


In a BAT file used to start an application do this:

  if not (%scwa%)==(2) goto xit
  www.exe -d "!post"
  :xit

WWW.EXE won't start unless we're in the 2nd Work Area.

Cheers...

Hi Carol

I used a program briefly that is DOS based and might work.

I am in the US right now and the prog is in Australia. I will be able to
look for you 5 August at the docs.

From memory the program was designed to run on a Tandy II PC (DOS) and
included Hypertext linking of any info to any other info.. I dont know about
123 prep but it seems this may be at least some of what you want.  The
program was called Memo I believe.

I have a "Black Box" that can connect any existing analogue modem to a
Motorola Analogue cellular.. This is by far the cheapest option if you are
talking US Cellular..  In Australia we are now going GSM digital and need a
special modem..

This is if you have an existing Microtac Motorola and say xjack modem
already.  All you need is the box.. Works well..  One US made and one
Taiwan.. Difference is price.

If you need more info Email me off list

Hi :-)

I am happily using the 200LX-2Mb with a Grey Cell Systems GSM/PCN PC
Card modem with a Nokia 5.1 (discontinued).
It is a very reliable faxing centre for me. I have not yet used a tcp/ip
stack to gain internet access (yet).

Cheers

After trying units from Megahertz, I've settled with the SimpleTech
33.6 Communicator.  I use an Ericsson DF388 with it.  Works great,
although I have to shift the phone from digital to analog mode to use
the modem, then remember to return to digital (to allow the phone to go
into sleep mode for battery conservation).

Daniel:

Shier Systems told me a few months back that such a cable would cost
$19, if I recall correctly.  Better double check with them.  You have
to write(e-mail) to ask, as these prices weren't posted on their site
at the time I last checked.  Personally, I just ordered two cables
from Samson Cables for $15 each, and plan to just "chop" off one end
of one of them for customization purposes.

"Exactly right, but the PC Cards will remain popular
because of their ability to host larger memory densities."

What does this mean?   That more mem can be added to it?
or that due to its size, more mem can be put in it.  If
you want and buy a 128MB CF, ability to host larger
mem density in the ATA is mute, no?

Rundel Datentechnic do them in Germany:

Of course a lot depends on exchange rate, shipping etc.   But maybe you
have friends in Germany ?

And (7) will not work on my brain either !

Has anyone ever wondered why Japan - regarded my many in Europe as the
place where a lot of new technology comes from - is clearly the HP 200LX
capital of the world ?

I can't quite understand, when I see pictures of the latest colour-LCD
offerings from Sharp and CASIO, why there is such a following for the LX
that (if I recall rightly) there are 2 dedicated magazines, and folk
building 128Mb RAM expansions.

I guess the question that follows is - why does this not have an impact
on the manufacturers ? - are there then 20 magazines devoted to CE, 15
to the Palm Pilot, 6 to the Sinclair Spectrum ?   I would lay a bet that
there are MSX-devotees (no, not MS-Exchange!) too.

Is the language barrier causing manufacturers like HP to simply not
record this marketplace when they decide their product strategies ?  I
know that our company (pharmaceuticals) has to treat the globe as 'US,
EEC, Japan, Rest-of-World') because of unique policies in those markets.

What would happen is a Japanese company offered to buy the rights to the
200LX off HP ?  Might they actually produce the 260LX that I've seen
dreamed on this list ?

Ahhhh.

I have to say when I was trying GP I never got near the end of the Inbox
- I have so much, it has so many attachments (see below), there are
funnies like mails with forms for MS Team Manager...I always hit a
timeout or the like.

You may recall my asking about MaxMTU to address timeouts - then I fried
the LX somehow...and the trial period passed, you produce V2 etc etc.

Today I got back the repaired LX (in a box 14" x 12" x 8" !!) from HP -
they replaced the main board, I'm now testing it....I also hopefully,
Stan have another LX shipping in from the US.   So I'll be back in
business and just might register for GP v2 so impressed it worked first
time.   Then if I can keep my mailbox in check I might get to the
QUIT...and from what you say it will start to clear out mail.

Mayeb I should RTFM the POP3 spec.

  Arg...  Spelling quibble of the day....

     "mute" = silent
     "moot" = debatable

  The correct phrasing would be:
      "... mem density in the ATA is moot, no?"

  Sorry Al.  I see (and make) all kinds of spelling errors and I let them
go by.  But for some reason, people saying that something is "silent" when
they really mean "debatable" drives me nuts....  <shrug> <grin>

There is a way to set an environment variable from withint a program
but it is not well documented or very straight forward. Basically
there is a DOS call that will give the location of the environment
variables for this program in memory. These are a copy of the master
environment variables set from the dos command line. In turn, you can
use information in the viariable block to find a pointer to the
master block of variables. Then you can create, remove or modify the
master set and the changes will still be there when your program
exits. If you try to modify or add to the set that are passed to your
program all the changes will disappear after the program exits, that
is why you have to take the extra step to locate the master set. I
may still have some code examples on how to do this, there are also
some examples in pascal or c on simtel if I remember correctly. Check
the dos archives under turboc or turbopascal and see what it there.

Most of the modems I've seen are over the 150mA limit - though I see one
of your respondents in the UK is using a GreyCell modem.

I've got to say that the GREAT HOPE ought to be the software GSM modem.
I tried out the TDk GreyCell (yes, TDK own them now) SoftModem, which is
for Win95, soon for CE.

Given what the software does, I can't believe that the core software
modem has anything at all to do with Windows.  It's just that the market
for a DOS version does not warrant the grief (ahhh, that low memory
stuff).

GSM currently only does 9600, ideal for the LX.   The TDK product is
just a floppy disk of software, and a cable from 9-pin DIN to the
particular phone.  I really can't imagine a better match for the LX -
but unless Japan has gone to GSM, there will never be the market.

They are just programming a published interface....AT*C or Ericsson
PDU....

Oh, yes. But you can run any software in

I think the major reason is that Japanese users made
very powerful software named Japanese kit that enables
you to use Kanji on a 200LX. It runs much faster than
Japanese Windows CE system.

But in Japan, a 200LX is not the most popular palmtop computer.
Sharp's Zaurus that is different from what we see in US is extremely
popular and NEC's Mobile Gear (486 DOS based palmtop) is also popular.
Of course the number of users of PalmPilot (Palm III) and WindowsCE
are increasing.

When I first read this message I just assumed you were looking for a
similar program.  I think I remember notepad and I might have a copy
of it on a zip disk somewhere.  Is that what you're asking for?  If
so I'll see if I can find it.

I'm talking about Sandisk cards.  I've been using them since I started
using flash cards.  I've heard horror stories about a few other cards
so I don't think I'd buy anything but Sandisk if I have a choice.

I'm sure a lot of the other cards are good too.  But I know Sandisk is
good.

Interesting that the Zaurus is so big, before I had the 200LX (which my
I must admit my wife's brother gave *her* but I adopted ;-) I had a
Sharp IQ-8000, which I think was a distant relative of the Zaurus.   I
saw pictures of a new Zaurus with colour LCD a while back - I guess
that's now on the streets in .jp.

In Europe as far as I know the Zaurus was never launched; certainly it's
unknown compared to Psion or (recently) Palm Pilot.

The secret of eternal life from our (corporate infrastructure) point of
view is to define interfaces, to standardise on interface formats or
definitions.

Thus we specify 'HTML 2.0' rather than any specific browser (please
don't shoot, I'm vague on exact numbers); we would if we could specify a
document format, as we have ***nightmares*** with MS products and
compatibilty - we dream of XML (I'm told) but are quite certain MS will
'adopt' it as a standard and produce a proprietary interpretation of it,
rendering it unusable - unless you (a) use their products and (b) update
ceaselessly.

The direction of this rant ?   The continued success of the 200LX &co
depends entirely on interfaces.

We have to live with DOS 5.0, we can add Windows 3.0 - perhaps Minix
too.

People like D&A who provide the interface to the basic WWW are vital.
We need people to go on and track vital directions, like Java.
We need interfacing tools - within limits - so yes to *readers* for MS
products like Word and Excel (?PPT?) but *no* to writing anything fancy.
Write the lowest common denominator, e.g. RTF or Word/WP 5.n.

Oh, I understand.  That would explain it.  Sorry, my error.

Personally, I think of Sandisk as the Microsoft of flash cards.  <g>
Whether that is good or bad is left to the reader to decide.  Mainly
because I'm in the middle of a nightmarish Linux installation and don't
have the time to write a big paragraph.  <g>

Chris;
The good news, I don't think there is anything
wrong with it that you have to send it in for $175.
Not to panic.

The bad news is that there are better people than I
that can walk you out of it faster than I, If not,
I think I can.

If you had two CFs for the LX, sould you have two adapters?
Or is the plugging in simple/reliable so that one adajter would do?

Bernard Torbik wrote:

> As a general rule, CFs are cheaper, but not by a lot. The only real difference is the form factor - 40% of a PC Card - and some technical advantages to CFs such as dual voltage. PC Cards have the advantage of offering higher capacities, though this will blur as new 128MB CFs become available later this year.

Does anyone know if this is a flashcard or is it a ROM card?   When plugged

Can't read from it.  I am pretty sure that it contains much of the MS-DOS

The part # you described is the system ROM card for an OB300 or 425. You
should be able to read it in a 200LX, though.

I know of only one magazine devoted to the LX. The only contact I have with
other LX users is on the internet and the Palmtop Paper. I would appreciate
other sources of of info.

Thanks,

Subject:      Non-LX Question

This isn't LX related but I was wondering if any of the UNIX users on the
list could answer a question for me. On my shell account in my /home
directory I've got a file named -file.ext. I can't use the rm command to
delete it because of the '-' in the file name and the mv command dosn't
allow me change the name because of the '-'. Does anyine have a suggestion
on how to remove the offending file or rename it? I have also tried using
the following syntax:

mv *file.ext and rm *file.ext

Using a * or a ? doesn't do the trick :(

I guess, afterall, this is LX related 'cause I'm using the 200LX as the dumb
terminal <grin>

 I have Hewlett Packard Phone Book Program Version A.01.05 running on my
PC.  It will open some Phone Book (.pdb) and some (.gdb) files transferred
from my HP200 and some it won't open.  I figured out that it didn't like
any fields that were not just text, and that's ok for my uses.  However,
does anyone know what this means:

PHONE caused a general protection fault in module PHONE.EXE

I have a "Black Box" that can connect any existing analogue modem to a
Motorola Analogue cellular.. This is by far the cheapest option if you are
talking US Cellular..  In Australia we are now going GSM digital and need a
special modem..

This is if you have an existing Microtac Motorola and say xjack modem
already.  All you need is the box.. Works well..  One US made and one
Taiwan.. Difference is price.

If you need more info Email me off list

Suggest:
        -file.ext
        Try cding to a higher directory, and dirname/*file.ext
                I don't know why this should work, but something like

Subject:      The 200LX, Htget, and batch files

I am setting up Htget (www.simtel.net) which is a Wattcp tool for downloadin web pages.
I am automating it using a batch file. The reason for this is it only
will take one address at a time- it doesn't use a file. However I am running into a
little trouble with the set command in DOS. I need to load the web address
into Htget using the following: set a$=web address. The only problem is
a lot of times the web address contains an equal sign and gives a
syntax error. Is there a way of getting around this? I tried breaking
the adress into parts and preloading the equal signs into Htget but
it doesn't work very well. Is there a way of getting set to ignore what
comes after the first equal sign and just load the string? Thanks for
any advice.

I am using HTGET too, works great.  Makes for a convenient way to

Well I tried a few methods to get around the problem and it just didn't
work. So then I went for the second solution from Simtel.Net (which you
already know about, everyone else try: http://www.simtel.net):

 + rbsetnv1.zip  20k setenv.exe which will let you set an enviroment
variable without '=' problem. Also does UNIX STYLE BACKTICK
SUBSTITUTION* (though you need to set comspec to point to
d:/dos/command.com).  Includes source. Public domain.

 + appenv21.zip  4k appenv.com will let you append to an enviroment
variable without '=' problem. If the variable doesn't exist it will be
create.  If it already exists is will be appended to, so you may need to
reset your variable (set variable=) between calls.  Includes source.
Non-commercial freeware.

 + xset522.zip   94k xset.exe will let you append to an enviroment
variable without '=' problem.  It also does a billion other things too,
kinda like LXBATCH without the LX.  Shareware.

There was also a couple of other utilities which would take input from
the user and push it into a variable.  One (setenv13.zip) was actually
written for the sake of cramming '=' into variables.  I did not test
these.  There were also several other that should have worked that
didn't, I didn't list these.

Hopefully Stefan Peichl will see this message and note that 2 of 3 (or 3
of 4) include source since this relates quite closely to a discussion
with the Subject: "ANN: LXCIC".

BTW, don't you hate when you do a quick jaunt to simtel and expect to be
in and out in five minutes and find you have been hanging around for
hours :-)

PS Almost hit SEND and came up with another solution. Use LXBATCH and
you already have that don't you (Ex. lxb fastinput plugh "Input Da
Stuff")?
*Note: If you can't guess, I thought that the unix style backtick
substitution was fairly interesting and wanted everyone to see it.

Hi,

>When inserting a modem PC-Card into the free slot how can do I let my
>HP200LX know that there is modem inserted.

You have to load the cic100-driver. Make sure you have the following
line in your autoexec.bat:

D:\BIN\CIC100 /gen 1

After a reboot your pcmcia-modem should work at COM2.
There is an alterative driver needing less memory - "LXCIC". You can
download it from http://www.palmtop.net/super.html
But with this I haven't much experiences.

>- I am thinking now of selling my HP320LX

That's a good idea - this silly WinCE... ;-)

You can also check the UNIX FAQ (comp.sys.unix?).  Probably one of the

Jeff:

Try this...

$ rm -- \-file.dat

I tested it out on our UNIX system, and it seemed to work.  What's
happening here is the pair of dashes (--) tells the command that this
is the end of command line switches; there won't be anymore switches
to follow.  Then use the backslash to escape the dash that starts out
the filename (\-).  You might even be able to omit the backslash...
Good luck.

Re: UNIX stuff on hp200lx
-------------------------
Chris & Jeff -

have you tried CALVIN, a very small and fast vi clone for the hp200lx? 44k

VIM 3 has heaps of extensions to vi, and runs well on the palmtop,
albeit a little slow ... and it's around 300k

Laust, Longden and I have recently been using "MC", which allows different
DOS sessions to run in different partitions - a bit like UNIX screen.
but nothing runs in the background <g> (although apparently downloading
does...)

I guess you've heard of SED15 (also compiles for unix out of the box)
& the various versions of AWK for DOS?

WCED is similar to tcsh filename completion, but much improved.

I asked nexcell about these batts.  They are NOT the gel type that hold a

everyday, unlike the great 1350mah NiMH from www.times2tech.com, which,
yes, are much more expensive but well worth it.

The nexcells for $3 would be good only if you plan to recharge more often
or drain your batteries in days rather than weeks.

Yes, I have tried them both, along with elvis, yet another  vi-clone.

I have almost all of these tools - I purchased from MIX Software
(of Power C fame) their C Utilities Toolchest.  The name is really
confusing - it is really a bunch of UNIX-like tools for DOS.  I had
to add some other utilities, like AWK and NROFF, but almost have
a complete suite of UNIX commands on my palmtop (and even my NT
desktop).

> WCED is similar to tcsh filename completion, but much improved.

I've heard of this program, a good friend uses it on his machine.
But I've been using something called CMDEDIT from the PCMagazine
collection for years.  The latest version I have has been updated
as recently as April 97.  It is version 2.0 with j1 extensions.
It features filename completion and command history recall.  It
has other features, but I don't use them.

Hello!

> Could you point me to a better english description of nec's mobile gear?

NEC's Mobile Gear looks like a Mobile Pro (NEC's Windows CE machine).
It has a touch typeable keyboard and a half VGA screen. In stead of
Windows CE, it has an original operating system named Unishell that comes
with
text web browser, dictionary, editor and so on. Although it is based on the

MS-DOS, you can't not "exit" to MS-DOS without using a free software
made by Japanese hackers. The CPU is low power version of 486 called
486GX and it works with two AA batteries. The half VGA screen might
sound good for 200LX users, but actually you can't run any DOS software
that requires VGA or CGA. (CGA emulator for MG is currently
being developped though). I have the MG, but personally I prefer
my 200LX, because the MG is too big for me.

Yujin

the version for xt and 286 have the same name TD.EXE, but if you

You can consider d86 like as a good debbuger, is really smaller.

I think some of us have worried about what happens to external keyboard options when Apple stops deciding to produce the Newton Keyboard. One alternative would be the use the Fujitsu Stylistic keyboards. The Fujitsu is a pen-based Windows tablet that also has an optional LOW-POWERED keyboard. Here is a URL for the keyboard:
http://www.fpsi.fujitsu.com/product/120perif.htm#KEYBOARD
It looks like a fairly decent keyboard. Also it probably has function keys which would make it easier us HP users. So if anybody has the guts to adapt this thing to the HP it wouldn't be so bad of a idea.

Well, I'm speaking only with reference to Sandisk/Sundisk cards, which are
the only ones I've owned so far.  Physically, the CF card in its adapter
is almost indistinguishable from a full-size ATA card.  The adapter goes
into and out of the 200LX as easily as a regular card.  I only removed the
CF card from the adapter a couple of times just to see how it worked.  It
was tricky enough that I think that if I owned two CF cards, I'd have an
adapter for each.  It was a very simple procedure, but it's a tight fit
and I was afraid I'd launch the CF card across the room.  The CF-adapter
connection seems very stable.
As far as speed and power drain goes, I didn't notice a difference when I
went from my 4 MB CF to a Sundisk 10 MB Type II ATA card.

The best price I could find was around $177 for a Simple Technologies
40 MB ATA flash card.  I don't have/plan to purchase a device using CF
cards, so I decided on a full-size card.  Marcan had the card for $189.
I figured that I've gotten a lot more than $12 use out of SUPER, so I went
ahead and ordered the card from them.  Bernie Torbik of Shore Systems
(who is on this list) also carries this card.

If anyone is interested, I'll post my impressions of the new card once it
arrives (early next week).

Also, if anyone is looking for a 10 MB Sundisk card, mine will be up for
sale sometime next week :)

Cheers.

I got connction in DOS mode at 9600 after driver instalation on both
Mainboard and HPLX. The driver and a program "dj346en.exe"
can be found at www.hp.com in IrDA section.


Load the device driver in config.sys as instructions.
The connection works pretty well at 9600 only.  I could"t configure
in other speeds. You sould set de IR port to com1 in the LX and set
serctl /i.

I haven't had much time to investigate the problem.  I have read all of the
stuff and it seems to have installed properly, but I am having trouble
getting the mail. I will find some time this weekend to try and fix the
problem.

Well,....it's not impossible to fix cause they fixed it, but you have to
buy version 5.5 or 6.0 to reap the benefits.  Since they probably do not
sell a lot of 5.0, they won't devote the resources to it.  In other
words....your're right !

I'm about to buy a used flash card from a friend.  It's a 10M IBM card from
around 1993.  My question to all you knowledable peoples: Have flash cards
changed much (if at all) from then to now that would make me not want to
buy it?  Are newer cards faster or use less power?

Thanks much for any info,

Danny

Hi,

Maybe you could write a utility program that prints the string to "stdout",
then it could be redirected ( from the batch file ...? ) to where ever the
user wants to put it.....say a file on the Ram disk, or even just the screen.

I just discovered, much to my chagrin, that the something called

It seems to have infected all .com files. I only discovered it because I
backed up my palmtop and innoculan went nuts broadcasting messages all
over my network. The only things I put on my palmtop is the general
stuph from super and various "abondonware". This may have spread to
others in the same way so I suggest y'all check your units for
infections.

Now I gotta figure out how to clean this sucker.....

They've changed A LOT!! Be sure that the card your getting is compatible =
with the 200LX, as it's probably 12 Volts. If it's 5 volts or 12/5, =
you're ok.

Speedwise, if it's IBM-branded it's made by Sundisk (now Sandisk) and =
will be SLOOOOOOWWWWW. Continuous data transfer rate is ~ 150KB/second. =
Newer, non-Sandisk cards are 710kb/second.

New cards are much faster, and do use less power, particularly
CompactFlash cards.  (Although you may not see a huge difference on the
200LX.)  On the other hand, if the card is cheap, then...

Just keep in mind that you can buy a new 40MB card for $180 now.

According to my Norton Antivirus virus list, there are two variants of
Casino, "Casino" and "Casino.B" which both do the same thing and are the
same size.  It infects .COM files, is 2330 bytes, and is memory resident
and employs size stealth.

When active on January 15, April 15, and August 15, the virus plays a slot
machine game and the message "CASINO DE MALTE JACKPOT..." appears.  If you
lose, your file allocation table is lost.


August 15 is coming up... I think I, for one, will run a virus scan on my
palmtop real soon here.

There's a market for the 18 oz. sub-note that frees one
from worry about batteries. For the commuter who wants
to do his E-mail and read the news, and for the novelist who
wants to write under a tree. And the student in the library.
DOS is not dead. 1700 titles (13%) of the Simtel DOS library
has 1997 or 1998 dates. And it gives us a chance to
write software without having a Ph.D. in Microsoft.
And to use software without bugs.

With a near full size keyboard, your brain is on what you want to say.
With current handhelds, that spontaneity is gone.

This virus *may* have come from a SUPER file. I got an email the other
day saying that Casino was found on one of the files in the collection.
I will freely admit that virus checking has not been done on the files
in the archive as I am a trusting soul (maybe too trusting). Since I
operate mainly in a UNIX world (not many viral problems there), I don't
even own a virus scanner. Is there a scanner out there that would be
good to use? I could ftp the whole collection over to a DOS machine and
check from there...

Sorry if this has/will cause problems. I will see if I can flush out
the offending files ASAP.

Next time you are logged on, try getting a directory by using the following:

ls -la | more

This will show a "verbose" listing of the directory, including the
read/write ermissions of all the files.  I suspect that you dont have the
right permissions to delete the file.  You may be able to chenge the
permissions, but you should probably check with your system administrator.

Hope this helps...

How does one go about virus checking the palmtops.  I have Norton on my
desktop machine but it is a windows machine and I do not know how to
have the palmtop showup as an extra drive under windows for the virus
checker to work.  Can I just backup my palmtop fully and then run a
virus checker on the backuped files on the desktop?

That would work, and probably be the fastest method.  One could also use
Interlnk/Intersvr and a serial cable and scan the palmtop as a drive with
a DOS scanner.  Or use a LAN card and run a DOS virus scanner on a remote
system and check the palmtop files.  I will probably check my flash card
files on the desktop using Norton Antivirus 4.0 for Win95, and run FPROT
or some other DOS virus scanner right on the palmtop by logging into our
Netware server from my 200LX.

This is what I'm doing as we speak. LX is running intersvr and my Win95
desktop is running interlnk, and Norton AntiVirus is checking what it thinks
are the E and G drives.

I set it to check program files only due to the slowness of the connection.
does anyone know if Casino virus needs to be checked on data files? This
would take a lot longer..

Ah, NAV just finished with both drives (C and A) and found nothing on 300+
program files. Keep me posted guys...

Don't recall if David mentioned earlier, but my Norton AntiVirus list tells
me that this (Casino/CasinoB) targets ".com" files.

NAV already checked those (and those buried in .zip files) on my system and
came up clean.

Well... I sort of answered my own question.  Here is the reply from Puma:

"  Intellisync  for HP200LX does not support any group scheduling
configurations.  It only supports Lotus Organizer 2.1 in PIMconfiguration.

So... I assume that this means that I would have to play funny
import/export games between
Notes and Organizer, then sync up to the HP.  Probably not worth it...

Your weak link to the desktop is both a blessing and a curse.

Think of it as a ball and chain situation and ask yourself how strong you
want that chain to be when the ball (desktop) gets bigger every year.

Personally, I try to minimize (read .. eliminate) the need to synch.

Sorry... I know that's not much consolation.

Jim,
    The card is for a OB 300 and contains the programs and files for that
machine.  It cannot be used in any other machine.

F-Prot is a completely free and well-updated antivirus program which runs
under DOS.  You can download it at:
ftp://ftp.DataFellows.com/f-prot/free/fp-301.zip

The .ZIP file is 1.5 MB, so you better have a pretty good sized chunk of
free space to use it.  I've never used it on the palmtop, but it works
great on my Thinkpad.

Cheers.

Subject:      Cellphones, Modems & IrDA
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit

With the recent discussion on connecting the HP200LX to cellphones, I figured
I would point out the Ericsson have just launched a GSM phone (SH888) that
will accept data/fax via a built-in IR port - no datacard or cable connection
is required.

The catch is that the SH888 expects IR data in the IrDA format. As I far as I
understand things, the HP IR port is not IrDA compliant.

Can any one offer any speculation on whether / how it might be possible to get
the HP and the phone to talk to one other via IR? It make for a neat system,
and I'll consider buying the phone in a few months when the price has dropped
somewhat.

Is there anything available that makes the HP meet the IrDA standards?
I'm aware of the printer drivers for the built in applications, but they are
not much good here! I'm not even sure of how to access the IR port from Dos -
I know serctl /i turns it on, but what com port (if any) is it attached to?

If there isn't anything available, has anyone got any suggestions on where to
start writing something that'll do the job? (i'm an adequate coder but know
next to nothing about the internals of the HP). Are the specs. of how to
operate the HP's port available anywhere? What about the source code for the
printer drivers? There seems to be plenty of info about IrDA on www.irda.com

Thanks for your comments,

Well, here's another place to check out for old DOS programs:
http://www.fairfield.idsite.com/forsale.htm

It's Fairfield Computers, a place that sets up older systems (286-486) for
people who don't need dancing icons and 3D games.  I picked up a very
interesting copy of the American Heritage Dictionary from them.  It's not
the same version as shown on palmtop.net.  One neat plus is that it came
with a bonus quotations program.  I'll let you know all about it once I
get it installed (around 3 MB without the quotes program).

Cheers.

It's an ad from TDK, page 93.  Anyone know if they're blowing smoke or

I don't think it works in the 100LX. Try LXCIC from the Super
site.

Subject:      HV viewer- Maybe a browser for LXTCP?

I use HV regularly and it is a fine piece of work. I really
like being able to turn off inline graphics and just use LXPIC
if I want to see one (wish I could do it with Netscape on the desktop).
Of course it would be nice if it handled extended forms and secure http.
Then I would never have to use a desktop at all. Of course I don't
think it would fit in a 70k package then but it would be worth it.
I also would support a browser for LXTCP. Of course the whole point
of LXTCP is it is system manager complient so it would be nice
if a browser for it was also. But to be honest I wouldn't pay much
unless it handled extended forms and shttp. But the skys the limit.
The present day dos browsers are hugh.

My .02 cents.

Along thonse lines, Why doesn't the built-in Icon editor on the d: drive
have an icon? Even Hexcalc has one.

Thanx for the job.

PS: some time it's beter to use an old version for checking virus.

No, it was my mistake.

FoxPro permits the use of a config file (default config.fp)
for various settings. You can include a line that runs a
program automatically when FoxPro loads, and that
program can include other commands.

So, on my system, the last line of config.fp is:

COMMAND=3DDO SETUP

and setup.prg includes commands to change the
paths, directories, key assignments, printer
settings, and so on. The name doesn't have
to be setup.prg.You could put your
run mono8025 command in a similar file.

I too see reverse video for data fields. I was referring
to the hot keys in the system menus and on (some)
control buttons.

Just BTW, I moving my foxuser files didn't seem to
work. I didn't bother to figure out what I did wrong,
I just renamed them.

As far as good news, I guess I'll have to disagree. Two people independently
turned up traces of the same virus and now it's gone for no apparent reason.

There's a smoking gun if ever I saw one...(or two in this case). I would've
preferred a confirmed diagnosis and deletion to a "nothing found".

Not to minimize Mitch's fine efforts, but I'll feel better when and if
we hear more details from the people would made the initial detections.

Without knowing the name of the file its pretty tough to determine
that it actually came from the Super site. I download from there
all the time and have never had a problem with or even found a virus.
(Doesn't mean there aren't any there- but...)  Plus the Casino virus
is so old a any decent virus checker would
pick it up. Viruses are  way overrated any way. So I think I'll trust
Mitch's efforts and not worry about it. After all the name of the
file is unknown, don't know the name of the program that found it.
Etc., etc...

Not shure that would work if your PT is actually infected, though, as a
memory scan needs to be done. Also, scanning the boot sector would not work
across networks.

Tranferring all files, checking useing a dos/windows utility, doing a hard
reset, and answering Yes to do reformatting, then transferring files back
will work. It's a pain though, and I hope the SUPER team comes up with an
elegant sollution.

This version is not the newest (it's version 1.7).
I found version 1.9 at the author's web site...
http://www.big.du.se/~bobble/palmtops/hp/database/notepad.zip

It looks pretty good but only works in 40 column mode.
Has anybody seen (or got it to work in) 64 col mode?

Hope this helps,
Mike

Daniel,

I tried to answer your emails, but cannot reach you. I get this
message: "Remote host said: 554 no date field given"

I don't know if this is a problem with your server or my
software (POST/LX). Do you have another email address?

J.P.:

Did you get this to run on your palmtop?  I tried it last night, and
it repeatedly locked up on me.  Is it meant to run on a x186 or lower?
Any tips would be appreciated...

Saddly the current F-prot (3.x) while a fine program will NOT run on the
HPLX as it requires a 386 or better.

There is an older version in:

ftp://ftp.DataFellows.com/f-prot/free/286/fp-288b.zip

that runs just fine on the 200LX.

Subject:      Starting 200
Content-Type: text

The other day, I tried to run 200 to get back into sysmgr.  I got an
error message that I've never seen before, unable to run 200 (or
something similar).  Has anyone ever seen this before?  What does it
mean?

And speaking of error messages, I get (as I was told to expect) the
message Card Battery Low frequently when I run with my Accton ethernet
PCMCIA interface card.  What exactly does this mean?  What types of
cards might have batteries, SRAM cards???  Do these exist for the
palmtop?  I used to have some of these with an older HP calculator,
the HP-48, but I was told they were incompatible with the palmtop series...

Type I SRAM cards do exist and do work for the palmtops. Apparently, they
differ in form and spec from the SRAM cards used for the calculator series
and that has caused some confusion. That much I'm familiar with.

I believe the 'card battery low' message is (in most cases now days) an
erroneous warning of what it thinks is a pending drive error because the
PCMCIA card is sucking too much power. Possibly, when the old SRAM card
batteries gave out, the LX may have been directed to route some AA power to
the card socket to keep the card active.

Just speculation, as some of this predates my LX experience (which started
in '95).

In a absent minded mood I must have put the 9-pin female female connector
from the connectivity pack on a weird place. I cannot find the thing and as
I would have liked to be able to use my pocket modem with my 100LX I would
like to replace this connector temporarily I hope with a self made one.
It is the connector which undoes the cable inter grated nulmodem.
Has somebody on the list the schematics of this connector?
As I am on the digest list, I would appreciate a cc to my email address.
Thanks in advance.
Did you ever stop to think, and then forget to restart?

My thoughts exactly.  Why would I need to sync up my appointment book =

Personally, I try to minimize (read .. eliminate) the need to synch.

Sorry... I know that's not much consolation.

I'm the one that origianlly posted the Virus message. I had originally
detected the virus with Innoculan for Netware. It was a fairly new copy
with the latest signatures loaded.. I know that sometimes a virus
signature can be detected when a file just happens to have the same byte
sequence as the signature (rare. But it happened once with a version of
norton AV erroneously reporting the Malta virus on a version of Pkzip)..
Innoculan reported that just about every .com file I was copying to the
server from my palmtop had the Casino virus. I subsequently ran McAfee
(pretty recent version) and F-Prot. Neither of these packages detected
the virus If someone else also found it then (hopefully) I'm not crazy.
I don't know why the other packages didn't detect it. I don't know when
,where

Who's the other person that found the same virus?

                Without knowing the name of the file its pretty tough to
determine
                that it actually came from the Super site. I download
from there
                all the time and have never had a problem with or even
found a virus.
                (Doesn't mean there aren't any there- but...)  Plus the
Casino virus
                is so old a any decent virus checker would
                pick it up. Viruses are  way overrated any way. So I
think I'll trust
                Mitch's efforts and not worry about it. After all the
name of the
                file is unknown, don't know the name of the program that
found it.

It's in the d:\bin directory on the 100LX.  Not to discount trying LXCIC,
CIC100 does work on the 100LX, doesn't take any more card memory, and the
command is:

d:\bin\cic100 /gen 1

The card modem is then on COM2.

You should add this command to your autoexec.bat.

HTH,

Hi,

most of these ZIP-programs are zipped, but these archives are
self-extracting (an EXE-file).
So you can run the EXE and the file is extracting without another
ZIP-program.

GTX,
Daniel.

Hi,

        I'm on a roll, unfortunately my SimpleTech modem didn't arrive
so I'd STILL like to try my AT&T or Motorola.  I found an adapter for
12V, but at 830mA.  When I check the battery meter, its all over the
place.  I still get "main battery is low", so am I not using enough
mA?

I think it is a simple 9-pin female to female connector.  I think the cable
wiring is null-modem.  Try one at Radio Shack.

Here's what I have for a null adaptor.  I made mine using a male db25 and a
male db9.  I cut the housing on the db25's housing to fit the db9 on one
side and the db25 on the other.  It works slick.

DB9 TO DB25 NULL

How about BACKUP.  Not only to have files somewhere else

It pays dividends, get BACKUP.

Thanks, I discovered that the CIC entry already exists in the autoexec.bat
file on drive D and that it is remarked out. I simply copied the autoexec.bat
file onto drive c with the rem comment removed and also copied the config.sys
file onto c. Then reset the computer to boot from drive c and everything works
fine.

Thanks for everybody's help - you are a great group!

Comments: To: TTSG <ttsg@TTSG.COM>

If it really is 830mA, that should be more than plenty.  Is it the HPLX
internal "meter" what's all over the place or an external volt/amp meter?

The HPLX can detect a low battery even when running off an adapter.  If the
battery is low, why don't you just replace it?  (If it's a nicad and you're
recharging it, it may be on its last legs and it may just not be holding a
charge for long...)

Also, be sure to read the message carefully.  Are you sure it's not "Backup
battery is low" or "Card battery is low"?

        Ok, since everyone seems to think I'm crazy :

UNZIP :

http://www.palmtop.net/cgi-bin/count-redir.pl/unz531x3.zip?dbname=unz531x3.zip&URL=ftp://ftp.one.net/pub/users/hamm/unz531x3.zip


ZIP :

http://www.palmtop.net/cgi-bin/count-redir.pl/zip21x.zip?dbname=zip21x.zip&URL=ftp://ftp.one.net/pub/users/hamm/zip21x.zip



        Both of those are the INFO-ZIP ones, both have .zip on the end.

Al, do you mean it's a PCMCIA-interface Zip drive?  You didn't mention that
detail.  <grin>

The problem I've seen with most of those kinds of disk interfaces is they
either don't have DOS drivers or they draw way too much current for palmtop
use.

Checking the web site (try www.addonics.com instead of addonics.com), I saw
that it says it's powered entirely off the laptop's battery (wouldn't work
with the HPLX) but that it also includes an AC adapter that can be used
(which -may- resolve the power problem).  It also mentions that DOS drivers
are available (good) but it requires a 386 or higher CPU (which may be the
killer...).

Anyone else know anything about this unit?
    http://www.addonics.com/product/poczip.html

Hmmm... I wonder if it could be made to work with a DoubleSlot....

It did say Type I and II interface. Since yu cked the site
yu now know more than me.  It has a pcmcia doohicky
that yu stick in the LX slot, with a cable attached to the
ZIP drive.

I'd still prefer a 120MB flashcard.but they're three times the $$$$ :)
yet the flash are 5 times less in bulk and weight.

Ahhh, but was/isn't there a BACKUP program with standard DOS?  For awhile
there, it was the only standard way to archive large files across multiple
disk volumes (typically on floppies, but I suppose it would've worked
on hard drives).

wced has a command history recall function that I now can't do without:
instead of just stepping through the command history (like tcsh or
DOSKEY), it does a partial match with what you have typed so far. If
you typed:
        sed -f script.sed input > output
and idid a whole lot of more output, vi input, cding, mving etc,
you can recall the sed command by typing:
        s<UP-ARROW>

Karl,

> Has anyone found a combination of modems and cellphone that work with =
the
> 200LX?

I use a Diamondtel and a Apex Mobile modem. The modem is a
pcmcia that draws 138mAh ands thus works with the 200LX. But
there are problems to consider:

1. The battery life of both phone and palmtop is pretty short
with this set up.

2. The speeds are waaaaaay down, only about 4800 or so
reliably. So that basically limits you to very short sessions,
and short emails. I have shown in this setup browsing on the
Web using our product (WWW/LX) but it is so slow it is
somewhat annoying :) ...

3. The transmission is not clean, depending of course where you
are.

4. Not only can your phone be cloned, but now, your email and
passwords can also be snatched off the air.

5. The connection is VERY VERY costly.

Having said that, let me point you to another route, although
hard to come by: There is a cell ready Motorola modem that is
a pocket modem. It runs on 9V and is cell ready. It works
directly with motorola cellphones, but I suspect that an
appropriate cable can be made to fit other phones.

This set up works much better because it has more battery
power.

The problem is to find pocket modems that run on batteries,
and the proper cables.

I have just completed a month of being mobile. It is possible
to do what you want, but I question the true need. In most
places in the US where you have enough infrastructure for good
mobile phone reception, you'll most likely also have a good
infrastructure for regular wired phones.

Outside the USA there are other options: Most of Europe and
Asia use GSM for the mobile phones, and there are GSM cards
that wither fit the phone or the palmtops.

In other areas the infrastructure is so underdeveloped that
neither wired or unwired communication is easy.

Good luck. Please share your results here!

I have recently purchased a SPARQ parallel port drive
(1 GB removeable) for attachment to various computers
I use around town.

Originally I thought there might be a chance that it would work
with the LX through a parallel port card, but when I tried
connecting an old, old laptop, I found that the unit requires
a 286 computer (just like the instructions state).

Too bad, because I had some great ideas for graphics and maps.
But it was not to be.

At Fry's, last time I was in CA, i saw one of these puppies.  I mentioned
it to a friend of mine who lurks on this list (Hi Wayne!) who said that
yes, he'd bought one and tried it.  the drivers require a 386 processor.
if you're really interested in running a zip drive, he DID mention that a
PCMCIA SCSI card might work.  I'm operating under the impression that
either he or another lurker (hi Neil!) were able to somehow interface a zip
drive with the LX.  I don't know the specifics though.  Let me get back to
you all.

Charles, I agree with you. I do have intellisync, but I bought them at the time
to look into syncing .xdb files rather than the apptbook. I have an adapter on
my desk at the office and plug in my hplx when I arrive. After a few minutes,
the SSaver (screensaver) starts and I get the HP Alarm Clock to watch my time.
The apptbook, contacts lists (in a gdb file), project management database (in a
pdb file for faster single key access), notebases etc etc at all a couple
keystrokes away, while I work on my office computer .... simple! Oh yes, my
organisation uses Lotus Notes 4.5a, but VERY VERY few people use the
calendaring feature, and NOBODY uses the meeting management features, so I
guess I can get away with this. (Why did we get Lotus Notes then? Please don't
ask!?! 8-D). I suppose some people have to sync because they have to update
office calendars.

Hi-

The Palmtop Paper vol 6 #4 (July/august '97) has an article on using a
Zip drive (and/or) a hard drive using the TransDigital Parallel Card &
DoubleSlot adapter (flash card & Zip together).  Actually the article
also discusses daisy-chaining both the Zip & the hard drive.  At least
when the article was written, drivers were available that worked with
the palmtop.

To whom it may concern:

The clasp on the 200LX is loose and no longer keeps it closed, any
recommendations?

I expect this to generate quite a few responses, but I just want the
best solution ("best" meaning "cheapest, quickest, easiest, most
effective")  Thank you.

You're really on a roll! You need to find a zip program with an exe
extension. Those are self extracting. Or I have a small command
line unzip program that I use on my 200LX. If you want it I can
email it to you. (unzipped of course).

Do a chkdsk on the palmtop. This will tell you if you have corrupted
files and which files. If the corrupted ones are the same files
reported with a virus then you do have a virus. The casino alters
the length of the files and this will show up with a chkdsk.
(if you do a chkdsk /f and you have files corrupted by the virus
chkdsk will wreck ythe files)

Next, if you have corrupted files, I'd call McAfee and find out why
their program didn't pick it up. According to their documentation
the program should be able to check all drives even networked drives.

I would also like to know because I use Mcafee for Dos and if it
doesn't pick up viruses I need to try a new program.

Also would like to know the name or approximate of the orginal file
that infected your system if you know. Thanks.

Hope this helps.

Your adapter may not be regulated enough. Check it with a voltmeter
If it reads more than 15 volts without the palmtop connected its not
regulated enough probably won't work anyway. The amperage should
be fine if its actually putting out that much. Also you have to be
careful to use an adapter that was designed for the load. I tried
a 12 volt 780 mA adapter designed for an answering machine because
it was really small. In specs (shows you how well these things are rated)
fit voltage, currant and regulation. But it still couldn't handle
the load of the palmtop if I would charge batteries and run a modem
at the same time. I replaced it with a radio shack adapter
and thats worked fine ever since. The HP adapter puts out 780 mA minimum so 830 should be
enough. Also if you find the adapter won't work you can use the
12 volt 1 amp max from radio shack. That one works fine. Its about 20
dollars. It gets the palmtop a little warmer when charging batteries
but a little heat never hurt anything as long as it doesn't get
hot! Its also pretty big so its not really made for traveling.
Times2Tech sells another which is really small which would be perfect
for traveling but heard its about 35 dollers. Haven't used it
though. Also if your card needs too much current you can expect
weird things to happen like main battery low, card battery low,
unexplained c drive lockups, stuff like this whether you have
AC connected or not. Remember the card will be underpowered so
it won't work quite right. Hope this helps.

The file name you are looking for is pkz204g.exe.
Its self extracting, available many places including
www.shareware.com , DOS.

The source code for compression/extraction of the ZIP
format is also around. I compiled it without problem years
ago for the Sun Sparc. In fact it was available before Katz's
offical (faster) version was available.

Casino is not a new virus. The May '97 f-prot listed four variants.
Maybe a new variant. Several .com files with the same "virus"
is a symptom of a virus.

I would like a copy. I must have spent half an hour
on the PC Mag site and I couldn't find it or even
v9n16.zip which was its original location. Was
I using the wrong URL?
I seemed to be faced with an endless stream of
the top 20 downloads or the latest Win95 utilities.
It seems to have gone from a reference source to
a profit center for ZD.

And if you can use a PCMCIA Type III rotating hard disk (as with a

Find a piece of sponge, cut to shape and shove it in there. Bath sponges are
not so good, tend to lose their shape. Try the sponge they use to pack
electronic components and cameras, a little stiffer and lasts longer. Don't
know where I found the piece I have now, but it actually survived the LX! It
was in my previous machine which died a screen death, and when my current clasp
lost it, I dug it out and used it again. Stiff cardboard, plastic, other stuff
could also do, but i suggest the packing sponge.

Well, for the past two weeks I have been using a 700lx with a PacificBell
GSM phone.

The 700lx, for those who are not familiar, is basicly a 200lx with a
built-in Nokia data card and docking port for a Nokia GSM phone.

I have found the data and fax connections to be wonderful.  The system works
extremly well.  I particularly enjoy the SMS funtions.  Because of the rate
structure for $9.95/mo I can send and recieve as many SMS as I want.

There is a free gateway on the internet at www.byedesk.com that will
actually take a properly formated SMS and send it as an email on the
internet.  So now I can send short internet emails at no extra charges, no
airtime. The service also allows to recieve messages from the internet as it
assigns your phone an email address.  It all works pretty slick.

I have faxed using qfax, and checked ccmail all over the GSM phone and it
works quite nice.  I wish I had WWW/LX so I could give that a try.  I think
it would work quite well even at 9600 baud, which is the present maximum on
GSM.

The only problem is the 700lx is very bulky when used to carrying the 200lx.
The next best solution would be a GSM data card and cable to connect to your
phone.

I guess Al's already answered your question, he was talking about the
generic process.

Now my question..Have you had the opportunity to restore from a Transfile
backup?

I looked at TF200 when it first came out, but stopped using it because

-didn't allow selective file restores (like you accidentally corrupted a
file and need a copy from the backup).

-didn't show me what was actually in the backup (I couldn't verify the
contents and whether all files including hidden ones were accounted for).

Mostly I just wondered if anyone has actually done a restore using the TF200
backup set and what problems, if any were encountered. Thanks.

>Uh, I'm not sure..
>Could I get into trouble?


oh, I don't think so. I ony ask for it because you should know the
order in which the palmtop searches on the drives for the boot files:
The normal order (if you don't have changed it by pressing ALT while
booting and choose another) is:

1. Loading COMMAND.COM, IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS from D: drive.
2. searching A: drive for config.sys, is there a config.sys, take it
for booting. Is there also an autoexec.bat, execute it.
  is there no autoexec.bat, don't use any autoexec.bat. is there no
config.sys, go on with step 3.
3. serching C: drive for config.sys..... (etc - as described in step
2.). if no config.sys on C: go on with 4
4. there is no config.sys but this one on drive D:. Take this, and
also the autoexec.bat on drive D:.

I hope you understood it (sorry for mistakes - my English isn't the
best). That was what I meant with boot behaviour. If you know it you
are able to manage different boot configurations, regarding on what
flash card is in the LX or regarding on *if* there is a flash card in.

GTX,
Daniel.

        Hi,

        Yes, I've already gotten it off my desktop machine and put it on
the palmtop to use.  I was just remarking that I think its a little silly
to have those programs zipped on the SUPER archive.  Normally wherever you
go the zip programs are self-extracters, not zips themself.  I just think
that it would be a good idea if they changed them.  My first intention when
I got to the SUPER site is :

        1) Grab all sorts of neat stuff
        2) Realize most is zipped
        3) Look for the unzip program in the list and grab it too.

you can do that already now with

LXCIC/S>SAVE.TXT

this redirects the status output (including the manufacturer
string) to the file save.txt. The manufacturer string always
starts at the same fixed offset within save.txt

Oops. I've uploaded a self-extracting version of the free Info-ZIP unzip
program to palmtop.net. It should be up on SUPER soon. If you need it
right away it's available at ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/infozip/MSDOS/

For general Zip/Unzip info see ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/infozip/UnZip.html

I received several connectors in the pack, but see nothing to identify

5181-6640  DB9M-DB9M
5181-6641  DB9M-DB25F

Can anyone identify these?

I see the irony and will change them when I get the chance. I just
figured it would go something like this:

         1) Grab all sorts of neat stuff
         2) Realize most is zipped
         3) Transfer that desktop copy of PKUNZIP that you've had since
            1987.
         4) Play with neat stuff.

Unzippers are kind of like floppy drives...evryone's got them.

I was able to link to my laptop w/o problem, using Transfile Win 200 on the
laptop.

Just make sure the IR ports are enabled, and that the PC and palmtop are set at
the same BPS rate.

Hi David-

According to the manuals (100LX chaps 36 & 37 or 200LX 27 & 28):
        5181-6640 =3D Serial printer adapter
        5181-6642 =3D 25 pin modem adapter
Also printer adapter is white, 25 pin modem adapter is grey, 9 pin
modem adapter is black.  Modem adapters have a telephone icon.

Funny thing is - your -6640 adapter is 9 - 9 pins but in the manual
it's  9 - 25 pin.

Sorry, don't know about the other 9-pin adapter.  It may be in the
manuals, but I didn't see it.

-PR

Mostly I just wondered if anyone has actually done a restore using the =
TF200 backup set and what problems, if any were encountered. Thanks.

I actually had only one crash that needed to restore all files...but I =
normally also do selective file saves for "can't lose files".  I have =
restored or copied those across many times ( usually after I've deleted =
the wrong program or unintentially written over a file).  Consequently, =
I get two utilities in one program.
I've been pretty satisfied with the progam though there are many equally =
capable programs that can fill the bill.

Hello.
Well, it was a nice try, but the Media Vision sound/joystick card I bought
from Halted Specialties (http://www.halted.com) does not work on the
200LX.  As soon as the driver is loaded, the system falls apart, makes
awful beeping sounds (from the speaker, not the card), etc.  It doesn't
matter if I don't load any other drivers.  Oh well, I guess the greyscale
screen doesn't lend itself to serious gaming anyway.
On a positive note, the card works well in my Thinkpad (at least the
joystick part; it already has an internal sound card), and so it looks
like a good way to add a joystick to your laptop.

Cheers.

I once installed Quick Menu III from my flashcrad to another directory
on my flashcard and it ran fine. Now I reinstalled it and following the
same procedures and it installed fine. However, if I add a progarm and
try to run it I get a bad command or file name message and I bounce back
to the main Quick Menu III screen. I am running QM III from DOS outside
system manager. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is. Thanks in

Intresting. Is there any sound card that works in a 200LX
without an external power supply?

Thank you,

I'm getting frustrated with running out of environmental space.  Such a stupid
way to do things, but that's the MicroSoft way.

I know I can specify the Shell line in my Config.SYS, but really all that does
is take some some precious ram because I'm always operating out of a different
shell, since I use DOSShell.  I've tried all sorts of things with Comspec, is
there a way to specify environmental space there or *just* the command.com?

I need at least 512 bytes, I think command.com defaults to 256, bah..  I have
a pretty long path, a few variables for different programmes, and that leaves
little for other stuff that needs a temporary spot.  It would appear I've been
right at the limit for some while at not noticed, as I just started using
another env. variable and started having my problems.

Thanks for any help, or URL's, etc..

Walter, here's some info from my notes - sorry its a bit long.

DOS Environment
The environment is a small area in memory that DOS sets aside for storing
text variables. Normally you set the size of the master environment area
with a SHELL= statement in config.sys. The default size is 256 bytes and
will almost certainly need to be increased if you begin to use variables to
automate your daily tasks. Normally you view, create and replace environment
variables with the SET command. MS-DOS automatically creates certain
variables such as COMSPEC and CONFIG when you boot the computer.
Whenever DOS loads a program into memory it makes a copy of the current
environment and passes this copy to the program. This copy is only big
enough to include the variables currently defined in the environment,
rounded up to an even multiple of 16 bytes. Although it is an efficient use
of memory it is inconvenient for persons who normally operate from a shell
program such as DosShell etc because there isn't much environment space
available no matter how large an area you set aside. If you get an *out of
environment space* message while running a shell program, increase the size
of the master environment with the SHELL= statement.

Here is a list of environment variables:        APPEND COMSPEC
This points to the active copy of the command interpreter loaded with the
SHELL= command. All of command.com isn't in memory all the time and when
parts must be reloaded the Comspec variable is used to find the command.com
file on disk. In the following SHELL= command, command.com sets the Comspec
variable using the C:\DOS\ parameter that follows the command interpreter
name:
SHELL=C:\DOS\COMMAND.COM C:\DOS\ /E:512 /P
DOS executes the shell= command at the end of config.sys processing. When it
does command.com sets the Comspec variable in the environment as if it had
executed
SET COMSPEC=C:\DOS\COMMAND.COM (Note that command.com does not actually use
the SET command).
Many programs search the environment for the COMSPEC variable when they must
locate command.com. If you are having trouble shelling to a DOS prompt from
one of your application programs check the COMSPEC environent variable and
make sure that its pointing to a valid copy of command.com.

You could try using the SUBST command from DOS (you'll have to get it from
a full DOS installation), which lets you alias a path using a drive letter.

Thus you could say:

subst f: a:\misc\apps\window95\powerpt\utility\pgms
path c:\dos;f:

An added bonus is that SUBST can be used to replace the ASSIGN statement
used in most autoexec.bats and takes up much less RAM (like none..I don't
know how it's done either).

Should that be D:\DOS\COMMAND.COM?  <g>

So, COMMAND.COM is executed for each new shell .... in mc (multiple choice
task swapper - small & fast), the new shells created do not include
DOSKEY or WCED or whatever file name completion you use.

Could changing COMSPEC to something like
        SET COMSPEC=DOSKEY | C:\DOS\COMMAND.COM
do the trick?

It doesn't seem to work because the entire shell is *within* COMMAND,
until you "exit".

Any ideas?

Hi Tony

It seems as if the Path may not be working or you are out of mem..Once QMIII
is installed what is mem free?

Hope this helps

Should that be D:\DOS\COMMAND.COM?  <g>

So, COMMAND.COM is executed for each new shell .... in mc (multiple choice
task swapper - small & fast), the new shells created do not include
DOSKEY or WCED or whatever file name completion you use.
...because they are invoked in AUTOEXEC.BAT, which is not executed when a
new shell is created... addendum

Could changing COMSPEC to something like
        SET COMSPEC=DOSKEY | C:\DOS\COMMAND.COM
do the trick?

It doesn't seem to work because the entire shell is *within* COMMAND,
until you "exit".

Any ideas?

The developer's guide gives the impression that the palmtop can boot from
an alternate ROM PCMCIA card.

Hi,

I bought my palmtop with "MS-DOS 5.0". So I think it's legal if I
install the entire release of "MS-DOS 5.0" on the palmtop.
If HP neglected some programs and commands of "MS-DOS 5.0" then this
is not my problem. If Micro$oft thinks that it was not legal then they
should write me an email an I delete SUBST from my palmtop again. ;-)

--> I bought DOS 5.0, so I use DOS 5.0!!!!

Okay... i agree that could work as well :-)

> So, COMMAND.COM is executed for each new shell .... in mc (multiple choice
> task swapper - small & fast),...

Each new shell? I don't understand - do you mean each new program started
under dosshell or a new command interpreter started from dosshell? If you
load a second copy of command.com under dosshell (without a path parameter)
the new interpreter inherits the contents of the first interpreter's
environment. Even if you change the second interpreter's environment it is
lost when you exit and the previous environment is unchanged.

> Could changing COMSPEC to something like
>         SET COMSPEC=DOSKEY | C:\DOS\COMMAND.COM
> do the trick?

Two problems here: The comspec variable as i understand it is solely for
defining the command interpreter's location (especially important if
command.com is not in the root directory of the boot drive). Your line above
confuses me (not difficult to do actually <g>) and doskey as well i'm sure
since the latter portion of the line is not a valid parameter for doskey.

Doskey is normally used in autoexec.bat as you said but the comspec variable
is already set if you used the shell= line i mentioned earlier. I am also
having trouble seeing the value of using both doskey and dosshell at the
same time. I've never actually used dosshell (nor doskey but i did use ndos
which functioned quite similar) but doesn't it make light work of repetitive
dos keystrokes *and* provide a neat text-mode menu as well? Why then would
you need doskey or did i misunderstand your post?

BTW: is any of dosshell's graphic display modes available on the 200LX?

->The clasp on the 200LX is loose and no longer keeps it closed, any

Cut a piece of foam (like the packing that comes with many computer
products) and jam it into the moving side of the clasp area.  Works like a
charm.

I am have been having trouble with my environment space for some time and
am glad this discussion came up.  I have neither statement in my
config.sys.  In what order should one put them and where (location) in the
config.sys?  I am mainly interested in DOS apps that run from within
sysmgr but run out of environment space.

Thanks.

when you haven't accessed a newsgroup for a few days the messages can
pile up. Post/News2 has a feature that allows you to place a negative
number (like -10) in the high number box to cause News to just
download that number of headers. But the caveat, bug or whatever is
that it doesn't replace the -10 with the highest number of the
newsgroup at the current point. So the next time you log on to download =
the
headers and then messages, you just get the last 10 headers.

Is there a way to see the message number in the message or header to be
able to use it to reseed the high number box in the Setup?

Or any other ideas would be appreciated.

thanks.

Hi Everyone

With the virus scare going around I was checking my directories
to see if I could find anything strange. I did:) Every directory
with a com or execute file has a new entry "chklist.ms". It lists
the com and exe files in the directory. The ms extension worries
me. Did Microsoft infect my 200LX? Help.

Try something like -50. I just did that and it replaced it with

When news logs on it displays the number of messages and the
high and low number. Just copy the high number and replace the
-10 with it.

This issue was discussed on the old list, and I believe the conclusion was
that we're free to use all the other parts of MS DOS 5.0 if we can get
them elsewhere, but I forget the details of how that conclusion was
reached (but I know we didn't just vote on it!).

Maybe you can dig thru Mitch's archives for that info.

The first (SHELL statement) goes in config.sys. I have mine as the last
line, but I don't think placement is critical.

The 2nd goes in autoexec.bat. Just do it before you start "200", maybe
better if before any TSRs, tho I don't how critical that would be.

Additionally, mine refers to the command.com on D: instead of C:.

Yes, of course. There is MS-DOS 5.0 on your palmtop. But be happy that
you don't have the biggest virus of the world on the palmtop - Windows
95! :-)

OK - I think you used "MSAV" for scanning. Right?
This (MS-) program writes this file in every directory - just as you
described. I don't know exactly about the contents of this file, but I
think, in it there stand the *.COM and *.EXE - files and their
checksums, so MSAV can compare these checksums next time you start
scanning and so it can realize if there is an infected file.
As I said - I don't know if this is the exact job of these files, but
you don't have to worry about it. It's no virus.

There is another virus scanner called "CPAV" ("Central Point Anti
Virus"), it comes with PC-Tools (C) (by Central Point). This one does
exactly the same - only the files are named "chklist.cps" instead of
chklist.ms.

GTX,
Daniel.

This is an interesting issue.  I have worked in regulatory
affairs (FDA compliance and applications) for a number of years
so I have some experience with federal regulations.  Still, I
am not a lawyer--I have little experience with the law, and
none with trial law.  That said, I'll still toss in my 2 cents.

It seems to me that the main issue is the claims made with the
material provided, in this case the manual and other printed
material.  I looked through everything that came with my 200LX
and have the definite impression that HP was very careful with
the way they worded their claims.

The license agreement refers only to "the software" and makes
no mention of MS-DOS whatsoever.  There is an allowance that
licensees may make "adaptations" of the software if it "is an
essential step in the use of the software with a computer," but
importing an outside module hardly seems like adaptation.

The box contains a statement that "MS-DOS(R) 5.0 is built in"
This may be the best argument, but it is still far from a
license for DOS 5.0.  The manual states "Your palmtop contains
a version of MS-DOS 5.0 in ROM that is optimized for a palmtop
PC.  Some of the external commands have been omitted, and some
important utility commands have been added."

My personal conclusion is that use of the full DOS 5.0 package
is not technically legal.  That said, I will also mention that
I have edlin.exe in c:\utils on my 200LX.  I believe this is
not an issue that Microsoft would choose to pursue.

John,

thanks for your advise. Are you using Post 2.1/News2? I did what you
suggested but it stayed at -50. Maybe my program has got "corrupted"
somehow. This happened to me once since I have been using Post and one =
day it
"forgot" how to parse the address "X <x@x.x> and I had to manually
remove the "< >" to send a message. I ended up re-installing the
program to get it to work properly again.

I cannot see any indication of the high/low number when News2 logs on
to a newsgroup. There is a status screen that incicates the progress
(i.e. quickscan, retrieving, etc.) but no high/low numbers.

Yes, it does.  And Wally Francis has written an LXB script "shell" for PGP
called LXPGP.  Great for encryption on the palmtop!

Folks,

Our Japanese friends have written a version of SUBST and JOIN
specifically for the HP palmtop:

http://www.vector.co.jp/pack/dos/util/machine/hp/lxsubst1.lzh

It's smaller than the DOS versions, and I've been using it for a
couple of months with no problems.

If I were MS I wouldn't pursue either.
My question is why why would you want to use edlin?
There wuz a time they couldn't pay anyone to use them :).
There are so many better, smaller, easier to use

Apparently, DOSKEY works in MC, and WCED doesn't. But I thought I'd use

I'm using MC, not DOSSHELL. MC is short for "multiple choice". It is 5k
long, and enables you to switch *instantly* between dos sessions
(shells, tasks or whatever). It does this by dividing up the RAM into
partitions for each shell (just like SysMan).

In contrast, DOSSHELL swaps to disk, so that you can swap bigger
programs (provided you have the disk space available!!), and it is much
slower.

I thought (incorrectly) the COMSPEC variable's contents might be executed
to begin a new shell ... thus providing a way to sneak in other
initialisations.

DOSSHELL is a shell swapper, not a shell interpreter. An *highly*
ambiguous name <g>.


> BTW: is any of dosshell's graphic display modes available on the 200LX?

I don't know about DOSSHELL's display modes, but MC also works with CGA
graphics (but you must set the g option), so the graphics display is
swapped as well. The switch is still instant with graphics.

To give you an idea of what I mean by "instant": you can swap so fast that
the screen flickers between the displays of different tasks!!


NOTES:
        MC is available on SUPER, thanks to Laust (who's on holidays now)
        there is a slight scrambling of built-in fonts with HV (Html Viewer)

News2 users:

the problem was caused by running News2 as an external from Post. I do
this because I like to stay online after downloading headers (so I can
scan the headers and then immediately download the messages I chose to
read). If you run Post (mail) and News2 together then News will ALWAYS
hang up the line (even if you unchecked the box "hang up aafter
download") in the Global setup. However, Post (by itself) WILL stay
online after the mail check and so will News2 if you run it as an
external from Post, so I end up running the programs separately.

The point is that if you run News2 separately like that then it will
not update the high number box if you have placed a negative number in
it to restrict the amount of headers to download. BUT it will update
the high number box if you run the Post(mail)/News2 combo (not run the
programs separately). So now I have updated the number and will try to
return to the way I ususally use the program (as an external).

Hope this is clear.

If you download a few months of the HPLX archive,
you can often get answers to your questions instantly.
A text search program that I wrote can chop the content of
these archives into messages and will allow you to search
for multiple words using and/or/not logic within each message.
The shareware program is on Simtel as maxfnd33.zip and
works from the DOS prompt. The zip includes 20 pages of
documentation. The magic in breaking out msgs is the use of
the string "Date:", which in the archive, occurs at the start of
each message. So I use this one line batch file:
  mf  -ps"Date:"  %1  %2  %3  %4  %5  %6  %7  c:\100lx\log*.txt"
In the second term, the -p says to break the text into pieces (or
paragraphs), the s requests that the string Date: is the defining
string. The %n terms are replaced with your search arguments.
The program also has a fuzzy spelling option. The inner loop is in
assembler and it searches 60K / sec on the LX and 2 meg / second
on my Pentium. Very useful for moderate size text files.

If you browse the archive you will see several lines in each msg that
are net/transmission oriented (e.g.: MIME-version) and simply clutter
up the archive. I use this batch file to remove six lines that appear
in
most messages by using the NOT (!) option (put it all on one line):
  mf -c !Reply-To: !Sender: !MIME-Version: !Content-Typ !Content-Tra
      "!For Unsubscribe re" "!***DO NOT"    %1  >%2
This reduces the file size by 25%.

I reduce the file size an additional 10% shortening the ==== and -----
separators:
  texrep    =========:=   \45\45\45\45:\45     log*.txt
Texrep is a global search and replace pgm that accepts multiple string
pairs. Its also on Simtel as texrep12.zip. It also has a manual.

I've been searching for a way to convert my journal.ndb file into a
database .gdb, because of the superior date field handling the database
offers.  Unfortunately, the only program I can find to do this, NDB2GDB on
SUPER, doesn't seem to work on my file-- it locks up the database in the
CPACK and on the 200LX when I try to open the converted file.

I've tried it both with and without a password on the file-- same trouble.

Any ideas?

Basically, it acts like the Application Manager, using MoreEXM and ExKey
and providing an icon-style interface.  It lets you install EXM
applications with an icon and a hotkey.  It doesn't replace AppMan, but
supplements it, since it overcomes the 8 EXM limit.

I believe the Thaddeus web site has it, but it's not on SUPER.  It's called
SMMX...

Have you tried GDBDUMP/GDBLOAD? It works on Note fields too. Just dump
the .ndb into a csv file. Create a .gdb with the same structure and load
the csv data into it.

The first time you open the new .gdb it'll get an error and you have to
reset the subset (f6) to "All records". Then modify the structure to suit
your needs. Just tried it on one of my .ndb files and seems to work OK.

Thanks for the tip.  I also figured out that if I create one with the same
structure, I can merge the converted .GDB file into the new database and it
works.

But now I have a related problem: I want to switch over to the Database app
because it offers far superior handling of the date fields.  Unfortunately,
if I define my new field in the Database file as a "Date" field, it won't
import my NoteTaker text field (in the form of 07/12/98, for example).

Any thoughts on how to work around this?

Just wanted to say, thanks to this hint, I got it working.  First I dumped
the NDB file to a text file with GDBDUMP.  There was a small problem with
my "date" field in the NoteTaker database being in the form of MM/DD/YY,
when GDBLOAD needs it to be in YYYYMMDD form in order to import it into a
true Date field.  I just loaded it in a text editor, replaced /97 with
/1997 and /98 with /1998, and then ran a quick macro to reformat the dates
from 01/01/98 to 19980101 format.  Then, GDBLOAD worked quite nicely!

Thanks, Longden, and others who responded.  Your help is greatly
appreciated.

Hi,

does someone have the SUBST-program of MS-DOS 5.0? I would be glad if
someone could mail it to me. The SUBST from DOS 6.2 doesn't work on
the HP 200 LX ("incorrect DOS version").

Thank you!

Daniel.

Subject:      PalDraw

I have started using PalDraw again after about a year so I went
to the PalDraw web site to get the latest version. I found out
the latest was just my version (1.00) with a couple of bug fixes.
The manual goes on about the development and how versions 1.2 and
1.3 were supposed to be out shortly. Version 1.0 came out in 96.
Does any body know if they are still working on it or have they
gone over to WinCE? Also does anyone know where I can get a set
of electronic symbol icons for it? Thanks.

Regards

-John

Where can I get it?

I tried the DOS-version that runs on my desktop but couldn't make it run
on my 200LX :-(

Hi Folks

Does anyone know of a Disk Optimizer that I can use on my 200LX? I=27ve =
deleted all files and restored them a few times but this is a pain.

My Norton Optimizers need a 286 or more. What can I do?

TIA

Richard:

After visiting your website, I think I understand you to be saying that
you meant EDIT.COM in your initial comments, not EDLIN.  I couldn't find
any references to EDLIN on the referenced web site...

BTW, there's only one reason I can think of to use EDLIN.  It is the
only way to edit a file (using standard provided MS software) when
you have re-directed the console out the serial port (see CTTY).  But
it is easier to find a modern third party editor to work in this mode.

Well, I guess you could say I'm a true retro-grouch.  I like
the old tried and true and can be stubborn about it.  :)

Actually, I don't use edlin much anymore, but I like to trot
it out every now and then just to be sure I don't forget the
commands.

I've tried all the available free/shareware disk optimizers available and
found that DOG is the best for me. Fully customizable (this means no dumb
user interface, which can be a disadvantage), freeware (not sure, haven't
got my 200LX with me at the moment) and works pretty well.

Look for DOG316.ZIP on any Simtel mirror.

If you're referring to PGP itself, it works for the 200LX. You have to give the
DOS session about 256KB of memory, set PGPPATH and TZ environment variables.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi,

        Well, at EVERYONES insistance, my ST 33.6 Communicator arrived today.

        So, I turned on my palmtop and checked the battery.  3/4 to 7/8th
power.

        I put the adapter in, and it goes to 7/8th to full power.

        I took the adapter out, turned it off, put in the ST.  I pressed on,
and it beeped twice and shut off.

        I put the adapter in, turn it on, and Backup/Card battery is "OK".
When I try to do anything, I get "MAIN BATTERY IS LOW - Press ESC". Later
"MAIN BATTERY IS VERY LOW - Press ESC" then it shuts off.

        It also seems to boot slower (If at all) with the card in)

        WHATS GOING ON?!  Atleast maybe I can return this modem!

                        Tuc/TTSG

Great. The modem is a known good factor.

Plenty of power.

It will do this if your using non-alkaline, non-rechargeable batteries.
Use a known good battery like an energizer alkaline. That will eliminate
the battery.

At least it turned on.
This will happen if the adapter can't handle the load. Are you using the HP adapter
If not then the next step is to use a known good adapter. Radio Shack takes returns.
How long is later? 45 min?

Its not the modem unless you got a bad one. There's also a possibility the
pcmcia circuits got messed up from using a too high drain card. You need
to eliminate everything else to find that out.

It's designed for SRAM cards, I believe.  DON'T run it on flash cards, as
it could scramble the data.

I think I got this info from the FAQ.  I really should know, since it's at
my site and all... <g>  But I can't remember for sure.

Don't insert the card other than a SRAM card
when you test "Plug-in RAM card". It might
break your flash card or modem card. When
you have flash card in it, it should show "bad card".

How come youse guys are using disk optimization software? I thought as
the LX "Disk" space was all solid-state, there was no good reason to
bother as there are no heads to move.

I used Norton Speedisk V7 when I wanted to try emm200 out (it needed
contiguous space) but as there are roumours of read/write 1/2 lives, I
don't want to use mine up to soon!

have any of you been able to import 200lx calendar info to Novell Groupwise

be nice to sync the info I already have.

I lost all of my data by doing this test.   It is mentioned in the palmtop
book and I did it to my dismay.   I was never able to recover the data and I
called people all over the US.   One company in FLA told me he may be able to
recover the data but it would cost nearly $1000. and no guarantees.   Needless
to say, I didn't get it done!   :-((

 It's designed for SRAM cards, I believe.  DON'T run it on flash cards, as
 it could scramble the data.

 I think I got this info from the FAQ.  I really should know, since it's at
 my site and all... <g>  But I can't remember for sure.

I think the main reason is to create contiguous blocks for files like
TREMM and Software Carousel swap files.

Are you talking about flash cards, or on your built-in C: drive?  The C:
drive is just DRAM; it doesn't have a limit on the number of writes.
Flash cards do... but I haven't heard of anybody's flash card wearing out
yet...

Hi group-

I'm wondering if any programmers out there have found a good way to
turn on charging at the slow rate.  I DL'd a copy of the SDK, and have
checked in Ralf Brown's Interrupt List.  Good info on turning charging
on or off, setting battery type, reading power status and battery
voltage.  Nothing about selecting the slow rate (at least that I've
found).  I think it can be done by loading a fake count into one of
the timers, to trick the system into "thinking" the 6 hour fast charge
time is up, but am hoping maybe someone has found a better way...

TIA

Hi Cathy, and all........

A word of wisdom..
always, ALWAYS back up before any reorganizing or renovation.
preferably OFF the machine you're working on.
That goes for sorting, and ANY kinda testing.
The idea is: What happens if this doen't work as I expect.

If you take my suggestion, you'll never be sorry.
trust me,
been there, done that (mistake :).
Learn from others, you don't got enought time to make all
the mistakes on your own.                         yor pal al.

Sorry for all the fuss.  I was PEBCAK today (Problem Exists Between Chair

didn't need them (as far as I can tell).  I haven't run each and every

Johan,

Try an old hacker's trick. If you have access to a compiler on
a DOS machine (like your 200lx), write a small priogram that
just returns a 1 (which should be a good value) to command.com.
Rename the executable to cr.com, then replace the original with the
new one.

You may have to play around with the original cr.com to find out
what it's supposed to return.

Ted,

I check my voluminous A drive and I found edlin.exe buried in there! So
now 2 retro-grouches are out of the closet. It can edit a large (250k) text
file in as little as 59k of ram, but I guess the main reason for having
learned it was the same rationale as learning vi in Unix.. every PC box
was guaranteed to have it (once upon a time) and that was an important
factor when doing PC support.

BTW, I know you get a list of commands in edlin by typing "?", but do you
have a summary that includes the metacharacters (special chars for 1st,
current and last lines)?

Just started with tool. According the doc users could expect some
problems with the initialization. That's true. Not able to even load
200.COM in the HP200LX in one of the area's. Could someone give me
please some hints.

I have written one (98 bytes) in A86 assembler.

It enables charging and cheats the HP into believing that 6 hours have
gone.

I have another program (74 bytes) which can enable/disable charging in
general.

I have also written a clock program (907 bytes - apologies for the size)
that displays the clock plus the remaining battery as a percentage in
the top-left corner (updated once a minute). It also has the date and a
stopwatch counting seconds.

Email me if you want them.

I=27ll save your message and, if I find anything, I=27ll let you know.

This is exactly the reason. As we delete files, add new ones, appointment =

Huh???  How is this???  With a RAM disk, there's no such thing as latency
times.  Access to an adjacent block of RAM is just as fast as one 3MB
distant.  Am I missing something here???

This has come up before. If there's any speed increase, it might come from
reduced overhead in dealing with a contiguous FAT or clusters.

If you have BUFFERS set in your config.sys, DOS may check the buffered area
before looking to disk and therefore non-contiguous blocks may waste an
extra nanosecond to check the buffer before having to fetch the data from
disk. Just wild speculation.

I personally like to keep my data packed together, just seems neater.

After a little more research I found that Novell has an import export utility
to add to Groupwise.  I tried to download it and got an error (this file not
on this server) The file name is GWIMPEXP.ZIP if you can find it.  Supposedly
it is designed to use any text based PIM file and import to Groupwise and
export a delimited text file to the PIM.
Hope I can find it soon

Well, I was never *that* much of an edlin guru.  :)   I've looked
through the DOS 5.0 manual and can't find any hint of what you're
mentioning.

Of course "1" will put you at the first line and "l" without any
parameters will display 11 lines with the current line last.
It seems that you can put the cursor at the last line by using
a number that is larger than the last line.

Hope that helps.  ;)

For what it's worth, several of my larger flash cards have exhibited a
strange symptom when using them repeatedly for backups: eventually, they
get much slower at copying the same files off the C: drive.  The only way
I've been able to speed it back up to normal is with a disk defragment...

At one point there was a discussion on HPHAND about the differences

For one thing, the IBM card needed a driver to work with the 200lx.
Another difference was the construction of the case, which was more
subject to static electricity than the Sandisk.

There was another discussion of whether the cards maybe by Sandisk and
sold under other names were different in any way than the cards sold as
Sandisk cards.  The Sandisk rep, who was a regular on the forum, jumped
in and said there were no differences other than what was printed on the
outside.

Those 2 discussions make me wonder if the IBM card is really a Sandisk
card.  Are you certain of this?

In the meantime could you tell us the name of the file(s) that are suspect?
If I've installed one, I'll go buy a virus scanner but if I haven't, I don't
really want to spend the money.  I do stay backed up so it won't be a tragedy.

I just downloaded it but the site says that there is a different one
designed for cpus <= 286.  It's at the following url.

I gave the wrong filename for the 286 version.  It's in the same path
but the name is fp-288b.zip.  Sorry about the confusion.

Folks,

Look for an old copy of WordPerfect Library (cicra 1988).  It will run on
a hplx and the groupwise calendar should be about to import from it. I
don't know about export as when I dealt with it years ago we were only
interested in import. soryy=20

They normally come packaged in self-extracting executable files.  Basically,
thats a .exe file that you run and it de-compresses itself.  It's a good
idea to use the -d parameter when you execute it in case there is a directory
structure contained in it.  If there is, it'll reproduce that structure.
If there are no directories then -d is ignored.

I noticed last night when I tried to run this program I got all sorts
of warning messages about how terribly out of date the program and
data files were, and how I should upgrade both the program and data
files at once.  Seems like the date was in January of this year.

Well, I can't upgrade the program, because I don't have a 286.  But
are updated data files available?

Also, "." is the current line and "#" is the last line.  Generally, if you
omit the first line parameter it defaults to the current line, and if you
omit the 2nd line parameter it defaults to the last line in memory.

To anyone who has been searching for a DOS dictionary, this message is
for you:

Russ Brooks has graciously donated two (2) copies of American Heritage
Dictionary Definitions Plus! (as seen on Palmtop.Net). I also just
picked up a copy of the "American Heritage Dictionary with Quotes" as
mentioned on the list a week or so ago. These are very nice DOS
dictionaries that take up about 3MB of disk space. Russ asked that I
sell the ones he donated to help support the SUPER Site so that's what
I will do.

If you are interested in one of the three available copies, please
email me OFF THE LIST. (Please double-check to make sure that you
don't email the list about this!) The two regular AHDs are $25 and the
one with quotes is $30 (all prices are plus shipping). To make this
fair for digest readers, I will collect the names until Friday 7/17
and then pick "winners" whom I will contact via private email.

A big thanks goes to Russ for this unexpected SUPER Site support!

You need to set up your "Owner" information in the 700LX setup
application. That's where cc:Mail gets the info.

 Because, the administrator of this list has asked us -NOT- to...

  Frankly, something that small wouldn't raise too much of a stink,
but since the nice administrator has asked us repeatedly not to
post binaries, and especialy since we have such a nice resource
like SUPER to use for distributing and archiving binaries, lets
use SUPER and not abuse the administrator's hospitality.

  Ok?

  Folks, while I'm at it...  Since Jorgen asked you to email -HIM- if you

remove the list address from your outgoing mail so you don't notify ALL OF

I left my 200LX in my car for an hour this morning while shopping.  Upon
returning nothing happens when turning ON -- no screen flickers or
anything.  Granted it is the hottest summer since 1980, but this was before
noon.

I have changed the batteries and plugged in AC to no avail.  Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks.

Content-Type: text

I finally got my discount $99 Citizen PN60i printer today!  Here's my
question, since I know a few of the list members have this same printer.
Although the documentation indicates they are a separate accessory, the
printer came with an interface cable.  But is it a serial or parallel
cable?  Apparently the printer supports either mode, and I presume the
pinouts and maybe jumpers in backshell of the interface cable select
which output mode.  But here I have this cable - could be a parallel
interface cable, coule be a serial one.  Any ideas?  Maybe I should
ditch the cable and focus on getting the IR working...

The cable is parallel and will work with the Transdigital parallel card
from the HP. Shier Systems sells a cable to go driectly from the 200LX
serial port to the Citizen.

The IR will work just fine with the irda97.zip drivers available on
SUPER.

Java promises cross-platform execution: a program will run on top of
whatever operating system you happen to have, provided you have Java...

This could give a new lease of life to our palmtops: a PCIMIA cell phone
card and Java, and there you go. With server side programming (ie all the
power is at the web site), this may be a goer...

The problems are:
        (a) Java is inefficient and our palmtops may not have the punch to
        run it at a decent speed; and (even more seriously)

        (b) there is no JavaDOS. One is being developed for 386's, but
        not for XT's. Huh.

Wouldn't it be cool to write a Java interpreter for the hp200lx?

Java takes a lot of processing power because of the extra levels of
indirection (the app talks to the virtual machine interface which
talks to the core VM, instead of talking to the OS and/or hardware).
However, there are other languages that run on MANY platforms, and have a
much greater wealth of code written for them, and freely available.  My
favorite is perl, which is available for unix, DOS, Mac, OS/2, Plan 9,
Next, etc.)  All the networking/server/UI stuff is already written.  I use
it every day (I'm a Project Manager of http://www.inergy.com).

BASIC runs in a lot of places, but not very well.

Then there's C/C++, which gives you a tremendous speed advantage, at the
cost of compile time and "enough rope to hang yourself by".

Many industry experts are saying that Java is very much not ready for
prime time as a secure, portable language, but it would have had a much
better chance if M$ and Netscape didn't deviate from the standard so much,
defeating the whole purpose. EWvery language has it's purpose, though.
JDBC is supposed to be an excellent way to get an app to talk to your SQL
DBMS.

I could only find a Perl 4 (ie not a Perl 5) that would run on the palmtop;
and it was fairly slow. Have you gotten around this? I use sed now.

I'd been very lukewarm about Java, but after reading the June
"Communications of the ACM" I became more enthusiastic. As a postgraduate
computer scientist <g>, I have a lot of respect for the ACM
(Association of Computing Machinery), and *they* were saying Java was
getting closer, closer... Just as you point out, there are other
platform-independent languages, but "none that have gained the
widespread commercial acceptance of Java".

But it would be slow.
But it would be cool...

What Bjarne Stroustrup actually said is that C++ gives you "enough rope to
shoot yourself in the foot."  He meant to mix metaphors.

I've been a member of ACM since 1970.  Don't get too excited about their
assesments of technology.  Look back at issues from 15 years ago and see
how they say AI or CASE or Relational Databases were going to solve the
world's problems.

The Java community isn't thinking about machines as small and slow as the
200lx even with the speedup and memory expansion.  Where the palmtop
excells is in providing truly portable access to DOS applications.

My opinion, FWIW

Deep Thoughts     by     Jack Handy   ( Phil Hartman was "Jack Handy")

I hope that when I die, it's in my sleep, like my grandfather did.  Not
screaming in terror like his passengers.

Instead of having "answers" on a math test, they should just call them
"impressions," and if you got a different "impression," so what, can't
we all be brothers?

If you ever drop your keys into a river of molten lava, let 'em go,
because, man, they're gone.

If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them
down?   We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.

One thing kids like is to be tricked.  For instance, I was going to take
my nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to a burned out
warehouse. "Oh no," I said, "Disneyland burned down."  He cried and
cried, but I think deep down he thought it was a pretty good joke.  I
started to drive to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.

The face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part of the
face.

If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him
is, "God is crying."  And if he asks why God is crying, another cute
thing to tell him is, "Probably because of something you did."

If you ever catch on fire, try to avoid seeing yourself in the mirror,
because I bet that's what REALLY throws you into a panic.

Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first
instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant and she
fell on me.  Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.

To me, boxing is like ballet, except there's no music, no choreography
and the dancers hit each other.

I hope if dogs ever take over the world, and they choose a king, they
don't just go by size, because I bet there are some Chihuahuas with some
good ideas.

If life deals you lemons, why not go kill someone with the lemons (maybe
by shoving them down his throat).

Probably the earliest fly swatters were nothing more than some sort of
striking surface attached to the end of a long stick.

I think a good gift for the President would be a chocolate revolver. And
since he's so busy, you'd probably have to run up to him real quick and
hand it to him.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at that word
itself. MANKIND. Basically, it's made up of two separate words "mank"
and "ind." What do these words mean? It's a mystery and that's why so is
mankind.

If you go flying back through time and you see someone else flying
forward into the future, it's probably best to avoid eye contact.

If you ever reach total enlightenment while you're drinking soda, I bet
it makes pop shoot out your nose.

To me, clowns aren't funny.  In fact, they're kinda scary.  I've
wondered where this started and I think it goes back to the time I went
to the circus and a clown killed my dad.

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate.  And
I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

Whenever you read a good book, it's like the author is right there, in
the room talking to you, which is why I don't like reading good books.

During the Middle Ages, probably one of the biggest mistakes was not
putting on your armor because you were "just going down to the corner."

If I ever get real rich, I hope I'm not real mean to poor people, like
I  am now.

When I found a skull in the woods, the first thing I did was call the
police. But then I got curious about it, picked it up, and started
wondering who this person was, and why he had deer horns.

Here's a good thing to do if you go to a party and you don't know
anybody: First take out the garbage.  Then go around and collect extra
garbage people might have, like a crumpled napkin, and take that out
too.  Pretty soon people will want to meet the busy garbage guy.

Sometimes I think you have to march right in and demand your rights,
even if you don't know what your rights are, or who the person is you're
talking to.  Then on the way out slam the door.

Broken promises don't upset me.  I just think, why did they believe me?

If you ever crawl inside an old hollow log and go to sleep, and while
you're in there some guys come and seal up both ends and then put it on
a truck and take it to another city, boy, I don't know what to tell you.

One thing vampire children must be taught from an early age is, don't
run with a wooden stake.

If you go to a costume party at your boss' house, wouldn't you think a
good costume would be to dress up like the boss' wife?  Trust me, it's
not.

Most of the time it was probably real bad being stuck in a dungeon.  But
some days, when there was a bad storm outside, you'd look out the window
and think, "Boy, I'm glad I'm not out in that."

I'd like to see a nature film where an eagle swoops down and pulls out a
fish out of a lake, and then maybe he's flying along, low to the ground,
and the fish pulls a worm out of the ground.  Now that's a documentary.

If I was the head of a country that lost a war, and I had to sign a
peace treaty, just as I was signing, I'd glance over the treaty and then
suddenly act surprised and say, "Wait a minute!  I thought we won!"

Sometimes you have to be careful when selecting a new name for
yourself.  For instance, let's say you have chosen the nickname "Fly
Head." Normally you would think that "Fly Head" would mean a person who
has beautiful swept-back features, as if flying through the air.  But
think again. Couldn't it also mean "having a head like a fly"? I'm
afraid that some people might actually think that.

Somebody told me how frightening it was how much topsoil we are losing
each year, but I told that story around the campfire and nobody got
scared.

Sounds rather worryingly like something suffered from heat stress and
physically broke. Possibly a poor solder joint gave up. I do hope it
recovers, but I suspect it may need a service.

BTW, I'd swap your record breaking hot summer for our wettest since =

I *believe* that if your'e not in the root directory, dos keeps track of
file fragments by maintaining linked lists. These tend to get large as the
disk gets fragmented and bits of files are stored "all over the place". The
increased access times stems from the increased number of reads needed to
access a file, and not from latency or read-times by themselves.

Paul

Not with the IrDA drivers from SUPER. The author specifically states in
the docs that they don't do that. I wish there was some more
development effort on those drivers as they could be really nice if
polished a bit more.

LXTCP users:

This is a plea to the masses. I had LXTCP working great last week, but
now I can't get it to work at all. I have been working directly with
Rod Whitby and he is stumped as are several others. Very quickly,
here's what's happening to me:

I have everything set up to make a good PPP connection using BOOTP and
CHAP. Once I get connected, TCPINFO gives me good results and all looks
perfect. However, I can't ping anything, not even the IP address of my
assigned gateway. I get this message with any ping attempt:

Cannot resolve hosts's hardware address

Rod says this is an error message returned by the WatTCP stack when a
host can't determine another hosts's ethernet address.

If I try to ping a host using its name, I get:

ICMP: Port Unreachable

Has anyone else had these problems and if so, how did you solve them?

Thanks much!

Edlin has a couple of features that make it unique.  One is that it can=

accept redirected input; this means you can make it part of some
sort of automation.    EDLIN  yourfile.txt < commands.txt

Another feature is that it can be faster than editors with more
features.  Most editors are designed for ease of use for the
person at the keyboard.  Edlin (obviously) wasn't so it doesn't
have to carry around all that extra baggage.

I keep a copy of Edlin on my desktop but I admit it has been years
since I started it up and I'd have to go back and relearn the
commands before I did.

(My LX editor of choice is T,EXE, the Tiny (10k) editor.)

If you do any kind of regular backup to a desktop I think the idea of r=
unning
anti virus software on the LX is a waste of time.  The slow cpu and
limited disk space means you (probably) won't be able to run a
recent version with up to date virus signature data.

Backup your LX by uploading everything to your desktop and
then run a full featured virus scanner on the backup files.

Ah, but here we see the fatal flaw of this technique!  For how can we make
sure the D: drive and the ROM is free of viruses if we only run the
program on the desktop?  I see what's going on... you want us all to fall
victim to the dreaded ROM viruses that invade your motherboard, desolder
the ROM, swap it with a freshly-burned EEPROM full of evil code, and then
disappear!  It's a conspiracy!

This afternoon, the keys:  F7 CuUp CuRi P / * - +
of my 32mb doublespeed 200LX gave up working. First I thought
of a software problem, but then I did the ESC-ON keyboard test
and these keys just have died.

I did what I wanted to do since a long time: I took out my
100LX and made a heart transplant between my two palmtops.
Now I have a 2x 32MB 200LX in a decent black 100LX case,
and a 100LX in a 200LX case. I was very surprised to see the
dead keys working again with my 100LX motherboard. The reason
must have been a bad contact between the keyboard and the
motherboard (it is not a plug, just a contact depending on
pressure).

If you have similar problems, first try to fix the screws,
keeping the palmtop together. If this doesn't help,
disassemble the palmtop and clean the keyboard connector
contacts.

I had nearly said: I have already broken the rules once this year (this
month, actually) by posting a uuencoded binary of the BOOT.COM.

As I said earlier, this was a bad last minute decision based on a number
of irrelevant issues, such as small size (and because I didn't really
have any idea of how to upload it to Super ;8-). None of these reasons
hold; it is of course the usefulness that counts, not the size (as the
sailor said to the nun).

Many mailers unpack uuencoded stuff automatically and I would think that
many people (I for one would!) also would object to suddenly finding
strange files lying around.

I have uploaded CLKB.ZIP (3 programs) and the charging programs
mentioned in an earlier message (CHARGE.ZIP (5 programs)) to Super.
All freeware.

Morning Russ, all
I concur.  My LX is a subset of my desktop
and evolves out of it, so in doing
antivirus on the PC periodically like
whenever you downlod a lot, it is sufficient.
I think.............:)

If you do any kind of regular backup to a desktop I think the idea of
running anti virus software on the LX is a waste of time. The slow cpu
and limited disk space means you (probably) won't be able to run a recent
version with up to date virus signature data. Backup your LX by uploading
everything to your desktop and
then run a full featured virus scanner on the backup files.

If your DOS program can print to an ascii text file, could you then load it
in memo and print it from there?  Kinda clunky but it may work.

Yes, that works.
Also using the blue COPY keystroke from 1-2-3 works, and screendumps work.
But if you have Derive (a DOS maths prog with amazing graphics) that just
aint enough!! You want more!! :-)

Subject:      Graphics viewers
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

On the subject of printing 123 and Derive graphs, both programs can save the
output as .pic and .tif, respectively.

I think the .pic is a Lotus proprietary format and not the .pic used by some
other graphics programs.

Does anyone know of a freeware viewer (and maybe printer) that can display
and/or print those formats? I believe Lotus supplied a program called
PrintGraph for theirs (on the full 123 package, not on the LX).

I know shareware.com and other sites have a ton of these, but has anyone
already found one that works WELL on the LX? I've tried a couple, but they
were too big, too expensive or just plain wouldn't work on a CGA/8086.

Thanks.

I was just using one of my older DOS programs that are reference works
about DOS and topics programmers use (jargon, table values, etc.). I
don't know where the programs are from or if they were sharewhere. One
of them, a DOS reference program called "SmartGuide for DOS" has a
number or appendices, one of them is the list of EDLIN commands and
shortcuts. I was wondering if anyone else has used it or any of these
programs:

Subject:      Ardis/RadioMail->Ikon alternatives?

I have a Motorola PM100D wireless modem that I've been using with RadioMail
and the Ardis network over my 200LX.

Now Ardis says they are dumping RadioMail service and no longer supporting
the HP1/200LX (also that "HP stopped producing the HP 95 HP 100LX and HP
200LX over the last few years." Not my understanding.).

Their solution is to "upgrade" to a Windows CE device.  I'm not really
interested in that.  Has anyone found any other more palatable alternatives
to use this modem in the LX?

TIA,

I don't know if this will help, but ccmail.zip is on SUPER:

This C source code was included with some early versions of cc:Mail and
gives several examples of how to manipulate various aspects of cc:Mail

 Just in case....

THIS IS REAL!!

DANGER!!!  VIRUS ALERT!!!   FOUR NEW PROBLEMS TO WATCH OUT FOR:

1) This is a new twist.  Someone is sending out a very desirable
screen-saver - the Budweiser Frogs. But if you download it, you will
lose
everything!!!  Your hard drive will crash!!!

DON'T DOWNLOAD THIS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!
 IT JUST WENT INTO CIRCULATION THIS WEEK, AS FAR AS WE KNOW....BE
 CAREFUL!!  BELOW IS
 WHAT THE SCREENSAVER OFFER WOULD LOOK LIKE:


 File: BUDSAVER.EXE (24643 bytes)
 DL Time (28800 bps): < 1 minute

ALSO...

  2) A computer virus is going around! It is called BUDDYLST.ZIP -
 DO NOT DOWNLOAD or someone  from the internet will get your screen
name and password!

  Please send this to any names you can think of and remember never
  download BUDDYLST.ZIP!!!

  ALSO...

  3) If you receive an eMail entitled "WIN A HOLIDAY" ... DO NOT open
 it.

 It will erase everything in your hard drive.  Forward this letter  to
as many people as you can.


  This is a new, very malicious virus and not many people know about
it.


  This information was announced very recently from Microsoft.
 Please share it with everyone that might access the internet.


  AND FINALLY...

  4) Do not open or even look at any mail that says:
  "RETURNED OR  UNABLE TO DELIVER".

 This virus will attach itself to your computer components and render
  them useless.  Immediately delete any mail items that say this.

I feel bad about bringing this up - as I know it's been covered
before....

I'm trying to use www/lx & post with CompuServes pop mailer. As far as
I know, everything is set correctly i.e.

smtp.site1.csi.com
pop.site1.csi.com

RPA enabled (checked)

I can send mail without problem - I just cannot receive it.
I get the message:

authentication OK.
warning not all mail retreived.
authentication failed.

..... when I try to send. This happens whether logging in through CompuSer=
ve
or my other provider. Passwords ok... as I can send.

I thought I'd post here, rather than bother Avi - it's probably
something simple I'm overlooking.... usually is :)

Thanks.

Larry

It's at the same site, but I think in a different directory (utilities?).
If you look around a little, you should be able to find it.

Sigh... just so everybody's clear, each of those four "warnings" is a
hoax.  And they've been around for at least six months...

I particularly like the one that says that "any e-mail saying RETURNED OR
UNABLE TO DELIVER" will render your computer components usless.  Heh

Actually, I kinda think of my LX as a virus, since it's completely rendered

I hope that the sender knows that this is totally bogus. I won't say
the screen saver is incorrect but the buddylst.zip sounds wrong and
the EMAIL virus hoax is just that, a long lived hoax.

FYI, the ccmail.zip file on SUPER specifically does *not* describe the
format of the files on the palmtop.  It shows how to manipulate
messages that have been exported from a ccmail program to an
interchange format - the problem being that there is no way to export
on the palmtop (even the DOS export program will not work unless it
can connect to a ccmail server).

I've looked into this a bit, and have found no public document,
private document or piece of source code which describes the format of
the ccmail files on the palmtop.  I do not believe that such a thing
exists.  I'd love to be proven wrong.

In the old days, SUBST was posted on ACE Technology's Web

In main screen of Post/LX, highlight the mailbox, then press D
repeatedly to toggle the three modes of downloading messages.
Also: Menu, Online, Download.

When in doubt, press F1. Also do F7 to search and enter
header as search argument.

I think you are mistaken. I think HP licensed only for what is
in the ROM.

I read somewhere that the latest versions of F-Prot do not run
in our DOS, requiring a 386 processor min. Otherwise, F-Prot
is great, fast and well supported.

I used intersvr/interlnk in the past (interlnk on desktop) and
F-Prot just checked these weird files "on the network" with no
problems. McAfee cannot do it through interlnk - too freaky
for it... :(...

Nope! Your program could NEVER parse this

 x<x@x.x>  not x <x@x.x>  as you described! You must put a
space there... I explained it to you twice, my friend, but you
did not want to hear me :) ...

That would be excellent if everybody talked about it! :) ...

Post/LX is the email client and newsgroup client of WWW/LX
Plus Version 2. See www.dasoft.com. It is a commercial
product, not shareware. You can read newsgroups with it. It is
$89.00 for the license.

I won't comment on the comparability with GP :) ...

My company produces this product.

It does for me. I have no idea why you suffer all these

Adaptation meant to them copying the programs from D: to C:
for example. I agree with your interpretation of import .NE.
adaptation.

Precisely what they mentioned in a statement I read somewhere

more.

I think HP made a statement that the license was for what is
in ROM, not the full MS-DOS 5.0.

Has anyone had a problem with the 'n' key on their LX acting strange? Mine

I'm confused here... are they changing the virus scanning logic (hence
the need to update the program), or just the virus signature data files,
or both?  Seems like at least the DOS program could be provided with
an update file...

The buddylst sounds the most plausible actually, in a way. I
don't know how AOL does it, but in CIS (Compuserve) there is a
CIS.INI (or WINCOM.INI) and the file contains your encrypted
password. People have asked others for a copy of that file
since their ".INI file is giving them troubles". The
innocents, eager to help, compied , only to suddenly find
their email hijacked, their bill online skyhigh etc.

Buddylst maybe a smilar (raw) deal.

The rest is, as you say and I paraphrase, pure manure. :)

I ordered a special cable from Shier S&S.  It is 35$ (I think).  In the

fine, but only with System Manager progams.

Why confused? Maybe they need more memory to manage stuff so
they went to the larger memory model in the 386 and up. But I
really do not know...

Perhaps *IN* the buddylst.zip file there is an infected executable.. but
downloading that file, or even unzipping the file will not cause the virus
to infect anything.
        To practice 'Safe Hex', folks, remember that the computer to be infected
must not only be containing instructions that are infections virus
material, but those instructions must be executed.  Downloading a file does
not execute the code contained in that file, if any.  nor will opening an
email do that.  Given current day email programs, I suppoise that if people
stilll used ANSI graphics, and contained an ANSI graphic file within an
email, it would be POSSIBLE to carry a trojan horse that would do things
like keyboard redefinition, but no one uses ANSI anymore, we all have
windows now, and ANSI was a text mode way of faking graphics.

  Hate to break the news to you, but checking the files thru Interlink is
NOT a very complete test.  A stealth virus, if resident in your palmtop,
could easily make Interlink send "clean" versions across the cable to the
machine where you're running the test software.  F-Prot would only see the
(stealthed) clean files.  I'm pretty sure that McAfee double-checks the
files via direct disk I/O which is a bit harder for viruses to stealth, and
is also probably the reason it doesn't work via Interlink...

  The best way is to pop your flash/ramdisk card out of your palmtop, pop it
into a secondary machine running a known clean version of DOS, and then run
the virus tester on the secondary machine.  (Note, if you do this, do
NOT(!!!) store or run the virus testing software off of the flash card you
are testing...)

  Good luck,
          ... JLS

What about checking the files with Laplink Remote using IBM Antivirus

There is a difference between the .xDB files, but it's not tremendous.
All it takes is a little change in an .NDB for it to be openable by the
database app, supposedly, but I haven't gotten it to work on my big .NDB

Subject:      New Keyboard

Has anyone checked out the keyboards at www.stewfull.com/parallel?
Can they be used with the 200LX? They only mention the PalmPilot
and CE but it looks like they connect through the serial port so
I would think if there was a driver they would work. Any opinions?
They are 9 by 4. A nice size for traveling. It also looks like
they use power from the serial port so you'd have to use the AC
adapter. They have 12 user remappable keys which would be great for
the built-ins. They've got an estimated cost of 70 dollars which
is pretty good. Is there any reason why they wouldn't work?

Also anybody know what happened to our matchboxed sized universal
serial port keyboard adapter?
I remember someone took that over but I lost the email address of
that person. Did anyone save her address and could you post it?
I'd like to find out whats going on with it.

I would actually. I program 1) for fun (and work) and because having the
source means that I can 2) port it to other operating systems (well,
perhaps not the assembler programs as they are), 3) add my own features
and 4) make it real *small* (Ah, well, after the last bit I will now
unfortunately never get a job at Microsoft).

But yes, these programs are as far as I know pretty unique and do what I
want them to do.

But I doubt that the charging programs are the *best*: I have not tried
ABC/LX but judging from the discussions on the list it sounds like a
comprehensive and well-made package and probably worth having if one
often have to buy new rechargable batteries. Personally I don't have to
recharge often so my batteries seem to last forever. Now I hope that
keeping the LX cool by only trickle charging will make the LX last
forever.

Text prints OK, graphics don't, and its a hassle to go through all those
uneccesary steps.
You might be interested in a cute work-around that has helped me to "Travel
light without overbyte" doing color overheads on the road.

I use a HP 340 printer, and I do presentation overheads on it.
I use my desktop Powerpoint to print out an empty overhead frame with the
company logo and fancy lines and graphics to disk. I then transfer this
file to my LX, and print by using the DOS Copy command to the COM port.
I thus get a wonderful & colorful overhead template.
I then set up my HP340 to print large characters, and print my bulleted
points by passing the overhead foil through the printer a second time for
B&W text!
Hey! Presto! Better looking O/H on the road!

To do presentations I have thought out the following:
1) Get a full 1-2-3 v 2.4 for DOS
2) Install EMM
3) Install 1-2-3 on the LX on a Flash Card
4) Use WYSIWYG to create presentations and graphics material
5) Print using a cable until the irda utility can be made to work in DOS

My local distributor was quite happy to provide me with the full 1-2-3 s/w,
all I ned now is a flash card!

Regards,
Paul

Nor have I looked into it. If it's true, I'm amazed there is this much support

Hi,

not me and not with the 'n' key - but my brother who has got a 100LX
had much problems with the 'c' key. We opened the keyboard and treated it
with pressure-air (I don't know the right word in English - in German
it's 'Druckluft' - air out of a spray-bottle!). This has blown out
the dust from the keys and -- now the 'c' works fine.

GTX,
Daniel.

Hi everyone !!
 My name is Fran and this is my first message.
 I am a student of latest courses of Telecommunication Engineer (6
years) in the UPM, Madrid (Spain).

        I am developing with other colleagues a project in order to help to
diabetical patients. So, each patient will have a Patient Unit (a
wonderful HP200 LX) to send and receive messages from Hospital, to
doctor, send data, ... etc from everywhere.

        Well, I am working with the palmtop using the PAL Capabilities.
        But i have a problem . I want to include in my application the LHAPI
facility called 'MultiEdit' instead of the practical but limited
'Edit'. I have several CDs related to HP200LX SDKs but the libraries
and *.h files associated are not included. I am using the BorlandC
Compiler.
        Required Files and libraries:
                interfac.h        MSCVC.lib        MSCVC_HP.lib

Does anyone have any comments or suggestions ??
Code samples including MultiEdit would be greatly appreceated !!

                                        Hasta Luego, LUCAS

As you have already heard, these are all confirmed hoaxes.  Lots of people
get mad when they see posts like this, because it can lead less
experienced computer users into a panic. But I would rather do something
about it.

There are two very good places to look up virus alerts to see
if they're hoaxes.  The first is the Symantec site at
http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/hoax.html .  Being a commercial site,
there may be certain biases there, but they let you search their pages,
which is real nice.  The other one is
http://www.ncsa.com/services/consortia/anti-virus/alerthoax.html

If you see a virus alert, please check it out first using one of these
resources.

One other thing you can do:  Use your favorite search engine to look for
the file name or some phrase in the email.

Try this one:  http://www.dtswireless.com
I also used RadioMail.  Stopped because it was a little expensive for general
mail use. Zapit! seems to be comparably priced but it's expensive if you
subscribe to this list because of the volume of messages.  I might try it again
and just get the digest.

Don't remember the part number, but I think you can get a 10 pin
connector that will work from digikey.

http://www.digikey.com/

According to the FAQ at:
http://coyote.accessnv.com/davidsa/hp/faq.htm
some users have added the "bump" (to prevent plugging in upside down)
with epoxy.

Subject:      32Meg upgrade WITHOUT double speed??

Is it possible to get the 32Meg upgrade to a 200LX without the speed
upgrade?  I know people will ask why I want a slower LX; I don't want
slower, it's just that I don't need faster.  I like to keep things
simple so not having to run that driver that corrects for the faster
clock is attractive to me.  Also, I don't see how you can run the built
in diagnostics if you need a driver to make things work properly.

Comments?

Remember when I said this?

"Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at
that word itself. MANKIND. Basically, it's made up of two separate words
"mank" and "ind." What do these words mean?
It's a mystery and that's why so is mankind."

Something like huMAN natURE :)    <Take a 2nd look...

Is this the dude his wife shot out in LAX?
I can dig it.

Better to be than to have,

Sure. The upgrade is 50 dollars less than. I think you can run
everything in diagnostics but the video. That will be shifted but
readable.

I think you'd need a driver for the keyboard and an irda driver.

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit

Hey, I've tried STSOrbit and it's really nice, but I really don't need that
much information, and all of the ascending/descending lines make the display
kind of confusing as well as slow to draw even on my Doublespeed machine..
Simple estimated paths and locations of the *multiple* satellites would be
nice.  Circle of sight for both QTH and sats is nice, but not necessary..

I have a really old satellite tracking program on my Amiga I like, but I'd
really rather have one on the Palmtop so I can always have it around.. :)

Downloading some various ones from shareware.com, but perhaps someone can
steer me towards the best one, I'm sure some of you other amateurs have tried
'em all. :)

Subject:      You have been added to the HPLX-L list

Thu, 16 Jul 1998 14:52:57

You have been added to the HPLX-L  mailing list (HPLX Mailing List) by Al
Kind <MCHEM1@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU>.

Please save this message for future  reference, especially if this is the
first time you subscribe to an  electronic mailing list. If you ever need
to  leave the  list,  you  will find  the  necessary instructions  below.
Perhaps  more importantly,  saving a  copy of  this message  (and of  all
future subscription notices  from other mailing lists) in  a special mail
folder will give you instant access to the list of mailing lists that you
are subscribed  to. This may  prove very useful the  next time you  go on
vacation and  need to leave  the lists temporarily so  as not to  fill up
your  mailbox while  you  are away!  You should  also  save the  "welcome
messages" from the  list owners that you will  occasionally receive after
subscribing to a new list.

To send  a message to  all the people  currently subscribed to  the list,
just send mail to HPLX-L@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU.  This is called "sending mail
to the  list", because  you send  mail to a  single address  and LISTSERV
makes  copies  for all  the  people  who  have subscribed.  This  address
(HPLX-L@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU) is  also called  the "list address".  You must
never try to send any command to that address, as it would be distributed
to all the people  who have subscribed. All commands must  be sent to the
"LISTSERV address",  LISTSERV@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU. It is very  important to
understand  the difference  between the  two, but  fortunately it  is not
complicated. The LISTSERV address is like  a FAX number that connects you
to  a machine,  whereas the  list  address is  like a  normal voice  line
connecting you to a person. If you make a mistake and dial the FAX number
when you wanted to talk to someone on the phone, you will quickly realize
that you  used the wrong  number and call again.  No harm will  have been
done. If on the other hand  you accidentally make your FAX call someone's
voice  line,  the  person  receiving the  call  will  be  inconvenienced,
especially if your FAX then re-dials  every 5 minutes. The fact that most
people will eventually connect the FAX machine to the voice line to allow
the FAX  to go through  and make  the calls stop  does not mean  that you
should continue to send FAXes to  the voice number. People would just get
mad at you.  It works pretty much  the same way with  mailing lists, with
the difference  that you are calling  hundreds or thousands of  people at
the same  time, and consequently  you can expect a  lot of people  to get
upset if you consistently send commands to the list address.

You may leave the list at any  time by sending a "SIGNOFF HPLX-L" command
to LISTSERV@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU. You can also tell LISTSERV how you want it
to confirm the  receipt of messages you  send to the list. If  you do not
trust the  system, send a  "SET HPLX-L  REPRO" command and  LISTSERV will
send  you a  copy of  your own  messages, so  that you  can see  that the
message was distributed and did not get damaged on the way. After a while
you  may find  that this  is getting  annoying, especially  if your  mail
program does not  tell you that the  message is from you  when it informs
you that new mail has arrived from  HPLX-L. If you send a "SET HPLX-L ACK
NOREPRO" command, LISTSERV will mail you a short acknowledgement instead,
which  will look  different in  your  mailbox directory.  With most  mail
programs you  will know immediately  that this is an  acknowledgement you
can read  later. Finally,  you can  turn off  acknowledgements completely
with "SET HPLX-L NOACK NOREPRO".

Following  instructions from  the list  owner, your  subscription options
have been  set to "REPRO"  rather than  the usual LISTSERV  defaults. For
more  information  about  subscription  options, send  a  "QUERY  HPLX-L"
command to LISTSERV@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU.

Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can get a
list of the available archive files  by sending an "INDEX HPLX-L" command
to LISTSERV@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU. You can then order these files with a "GET
HPLX-L LOGxxxx" command, or  using LISTSERV's database search facilities.
Send an "INFO DATABASE" command for more information on the latter.

This  list is  available  in digest  form.  If you  wish  to receive  the
digested version of the postings, just issue a SET HPLX-L DIGEST command.

Please note that  it is presently possible for other  people to determine
that  you are  signed up  to the  list through  the use  of the  "REVIEW"
command,  which  returns   the  e-mail  address  and  name   of  all  the
subscribers. If  you do not  want your name to  be visible, just  issue a
"SET HPLX-L CONCEAL" command.

More  information on  LISTSERV  commands  can be  found  in the  LISTSERV
reference  card, which  you can  retrieve  by sending  an "INFO  REFCARD"
command to LISTSERV@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU.

I looked back through the last few months to see what you were
referring to and the only thing I saw that was not completely HPLX
related was the India database which I plan to move over to the
Database Repository. What is there that you don't think belongs?
And this question is not just to Russ, but to anyone. Email me

I did too. When I checked the to: address, I found the message
was sent to the entire list so it looks like the list got
subscribed to itself.

Mime-Version: 1.0

I am trying to format a Memo note on my HP200LX and send it via IR to an
HP printer.  I've successfully changed the font using an initialization
string in the Print Setup box, i.e. \027(s1p11v5T, but when I try to put
a similar code within the Memo text, it just prints the characters,
rather that treat it as a printer command.  I want to do this so
different parts of the document are formatted differently.  I'd like the
title in 18p Times Roman, the body text in 12p Helv, etc.  The HP
printer text formats of bold and underline only are too confining.  Any
ideas?  Thanks.

        (see end for original post)


        I don't want to get off on a Rant here, but...
        ( STOLEN from Dennis Miller Live on HBO   ;=>  )

        Just so YOU know, I am the person who ACCIDENTALLY posted the Phil
Hartman quotes to this list while sending them to my friends. What
causes me to reply to your post is the accusation of stealing. Does that
concern e-mailing the quotes or posting them to the super site? I felt
that you must be referring to the super site, although you were not
clear on this. If you are referring to e-mailing the quotes, I think
that goes too far and sounds rather anal.
        E-mailing quotes spoken by a personality in public, or lines from a
published work ( i.e. speeches by a public figure, famous lines from
Shakespeare or Monty Python ) which are clearly attributed to said
public figure is not stealing.
        I am reminded of the court battle over citizens' right to record
HBO/SHOWTIME broadcasts in ones home. HBO (etc.) maintained that a
person who paid to watch a show did not have the right to record that
show and re-view it. The Court said they were wrong, a person has the
right to record any show that is played in their house on their
television for their personal use. They just can't re-broadcast it for
money or royalties etc.
        Of course, if you mention stealing in reference to Phil Hartman's
quotes being included on the super site, I guess you are right. Maybe
THAT would constitute intellectual theft of Phil Hartman's intellectual
property. Then again, maybe not. A reviewer can put part of someone's
works in almost any sort of article and call it a "review." Maybe the
Super site should "review" Hartman's "Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy"
material and include some quotes in its "review." Yeah, I am being
facetious, but you get the idea.
        If they had been put on the site, without being part of a "review",
I'll bet Phil, God rest his soul, and his heir's would be just furious
and feel monetarily, morally, and artistically cheated that 30 or so of
his quotes (which had already been broadcast to millions of viewers over
the airwaves) had been plagiarized, stolen, etc. by the nefarious Super
Site. Yeah, what a crime.

p.s. Let's not start a thread that has nothing to do with HP palmtops.
so... I'll just say now that if you agree with me, thanks, Or, if you
think I am full of it, you're probably right, and you can e-mail me
directly, off of the list, to tell me so.

I don't want to get off on a Rant here, but...

Thanks for the link.  The service looks promising, but it may not support my
Motorola wireless modem--they list the Megahertz.  I'll have to dig into
this.

I had mail from David Shier (Shier Systems) who set me up with RadioMail,
and he says he is looking into packaging a new wireless service for the LX,
but it will not support the Motorola PM100 either.  It sounds like to use
the Motorola I may be stuck with Ardis, and they don't want to support the
LX.  :-(

I'm afraid I may be out of luck using my current modem in the palmtop, and
I'm not sure it would be worth setting up in a notebook under W95 or a CE
unit.

I check SUPER and the entire palmtop.net at least 2-3 times a week and
can't think of anything there that doesn't belong either. I think that all
*.gdb files belong in the Database Repository, even if they don't interest
the majority of the group. (at least until palmtop.net disk space becomes
low) :)
The poster thinks they might be of use to some other HPLX owner.

Send the message:

to listserv@UCONNVM.UConn.Edu

Place the text, in the body of the message, - the subject is ignored.

Subject:      Upgrade HP 200 LX  to HP 620 LX  ???
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi there,

I recently purchased an expensive !! Windows CE Handheld PC,a HP620 LX,to
"replace" my HP 200LX which broke down after many LOYAL INFO YEARS !

Rather late, and with great disappointment because I have found almost nobody,
not even Hewlett Packard to provide specific information, I have learnt that
Windows CE will NOT
support Multiple Databases as my old HP 200 LX machine does.

When I say rather late, I mean that NO VENDOR was able to provide concise
pre-sales information.

By Multiple Databases I mean to be able to browse through my HP 200 LX
directory and open a different database.

This is my main concern, for I handle a lot of info on different ".pdb "
databases: business, friends, music, etc., with enormous flexibility.

As far as I have been told the "Contacts" feature in Windows CE, which is a
database, will only handle 1 database ! If one tries to download a second one,
it will merge it with the first one.

I read about Microsoft's ADO CE, a relational database technology for CE's,
suited for heavy data work, but I understand ADO is a programmer's tool, and I
am an END USER !!!

I would appreciate it very much, if anyone would give me some orientation
regarding a  database software that can be loaded into the HP620 LX to handle
multiple databases, emulating HP 200LX more than proficient database handling.

Thank you for enlightening replies !!!

I've had to make a complete backup from TF200 and it worked great.  I
agree it's not very fast but it's very easy and convenient to use.

No you can't wear this cover on a belt loop...it doesn't have one.
That's actually one of the things that I like about this cover; it
hardly adds any size or bulk to the 200LX so it will very easily fit
into a coat pocket, thin briefcase, or even a front pants pocket
(temporarily).

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

I'm on my second HP200LX.  The first was repaired by HP under my extended
warranty.  I had missing screen columns on the left side.  Now I'm having
the same problem again, but I'm on my own nickel.  right now it's only one
column. I took off the bezel from the screen and the two torx screws.
Apparently I have to take the lower case apart first. I thought I had seen
a web page somewhere describing a fix, but apparently I didn't bookmark it.
Is this easy to fix.  Is the problem normally in the top or bottom case ?
If I press halfway down the left side of the top, the column makes a
connection.

Thanks

Gerry

I've been downloading e-mail using wwwlx/post and my 2400 baud

large posts (>10k).  I picked up a 33.6 PCMCIA modem at Fry's

caused my 200lx to reboot trashing all of memory. I lost the
mail it downloaded, but I backup daily, so I didn't lose
anything else.  I can't use this 33.6 modem, and my 2400 baud
modem is so slow. I don't want to spend $100+ for a faster
modem that works.  Is that my only option?

The Simple Technology 33.6 modem with Simple Jack WILL WORK fine with the
200LX, as it is rated at only 140mA. Five year warranty, Express Exchange,
30-day no-hassle refund.

We have them in stock for $105, delivered. VISA/MC/AMEX ok.

Watch the newsgroups. You can find cheap (around 25 bucks) 14.4

If you want to do this in the built-in apps, import the text file into =
123
There you can have different printer strings for each line if you want.

Alterntively, get a copy of Word for Dos or WordPerfect for Dos or run
Windows 2.0 or 3.0 and Word for Windows 1.1

Argh. Now I figure out that my backups for that graphics package are

the 1.2M format drives not being able to read these things. Anybody
got an old XT or AT class machine that can read both? Hopefully , all
of my old disks haven't completely been erased on me, which is the
other thing that might happen since 1983 when these things were
originally written.

As Bernie pointed out, the Simple Tech 33.6 Communicator will work in the
200LX, and is rated at 140ma. However, I thought I might add here that my
measurements have shown that my own Simple Tech 33.6 Communicator never
gets above 125ma.

Great modem!

The only time I've hear of a PCMCIA CD-ROM drive working was in the
Jan/Feb 1997 Palmtop Paper, using a parallel card and a SCSI converter...
I think.  (Can't really remember at the moment... :)

I think it communicates.  If you have additional information, please don't
hesitate to send it to me for inclusion.

    I will be adding a section at the top of the last page that lists
equipment and software so people can do searches down the page.

    Someone had a suggestion of setting up a list for packet/ham LX stuff.
 Sounds like a good idea.  There are quite a few e-mail addresses on the
Packeteer.htm page now ... a list might be in order.

    Many thanks to the packeteer crowd for contributing what's there.  This
HTML stuff is cool, but labor intensive!  The most annoying thing is that
stuff looks DIFFERENT on explorer than when displayed on NAVIGATOR.  VERY
frustrating!  I wonder how many (other) HTML coders have both browsers on
their system ...

There was a knock on the door. It was the man from Microsoft. "Not you
again," I said. =


"Sorry," he said, a little sheepishly. "I guess you know why I'm here." =


Indeed I did. Microsoft's $300 million campaign to promote the Windows
95 operating system was meant to be universally effective, to convince
every human being on the planet that Windows 95 was an essential, some
would say integral, part of living. Problem was, not everyone had bought
it. Specifically, I hadn't. I was the Last Human Being Without Windows
95. And now this little man from Microsoft was at my door, and he
wouldn't take no for an answer. =


"No," I said. =


"You know I can't take that," he said, pulling out a copy of Windows 95
from a briefcase. "Come on. Just one copy. That's all we ask." =


"Not interested," I said. "Look, isn't there someone else you can go
bother for a while? There's got to be someone else on the planet who
doesn't have a copy." =


"Well, no," the Microsoft man said. "You're the only one." =


"You can't be serious. Not everyone on the planet has a computer," I
said. "And certainly, not everyone has a PC! Some people own
Macintoshes, which run their own operating system. And some people who
have PCs run OS/2, though I hear that's just a rumor. In short, there
are some people who just have no USE for Windows 95." =


The Microsoft man look perplexed. "I'm missing your point," he said. =


"Use!" I screamed. "Use! Use! Use! Why BUY it, if you can't USE it?" =


"Well, I don't know anything about this 'use' thing you're going on
about," the Microsoft man said. "All I know is that according to our
records, everyone else on the planet has a copy." =


"People without computers?" =


"Got 'em." =


"Amazonian Indians?" =


"We had to get some malaria shots to go in, but yes." =


"The Amish." =


"Check." =


"Oh, come on," I said. "They don't even wear BUTTONS. How did you get
them to buy a computer operating system?" =


"We told them there were actually 95 very small windows in the box," the
Microsoft man admitted. "We sort of lied. Which means we are all going
to Hell, every single employee of Microsoft." He was somber for a
minute, but then perked right up. "But that's not the point!" he said.
"The point is, EVERYONE has a copy. Except you." =


"So what?" I said. "If everyone else jumped off a cliff, would you
expect me to do it, too?" =


"If we spent $300 million advertising it? Absolutely." =


"No." =


"Oh, back to that again," the Microsoft man said. "Hey. I'll tell you
what. I'll GIVE you a copy. For free. Just take it and install it on
your computer." He waved the box in front of me. =


"No," I said again. "No offense, pal, but I don't NEED it. And frankly,
your whole advertising blitz has sort of offended me. I mean, it's a
computer operating system. Great. Fine. Swell. Whatever. But you guys
are advertising it like it creates world peace or something." =


"It did." =


"Pardon?" =


"World peace. It was part of the original design. Really. One button
access. Click on it, poof, end to strife and hunger. Simple." =


"So what happened?" =


"Well, you know," he said. "It took up a lot of space on the hard drive.
We had to decide between it or the Microsoft Network. Anyway, we
couldn't figure out how to make a profit off of world peace." =


"Go away," I said. =


"I can't," he said. "I'll be killed if I fail." =


"You have got to be kidding," I said. =


"Look," the Microsoft man said, "We sold this to the Amish. The Amish!
Right now, they're opening the boxes and figuring out they've been had.
We'll be pitchforked if we ever step into Western Pennsylvania again.
But we did it. So to have YOU holding out, well, it's embarrassing. It's
embarrassing to the company. It's embarrassing to the product. It's
embarrassing to Bill." =


"Bill Gates does not care about me," I said. =


"He's watching right now," the Microsoft man said. "Borrowed one of
those military spy satellites just for the purpose. It's also got one of
those high-powered lasers. You close that door on me, zap, I'm a pile of
grey ash." =


"He wouldn't do that," I said. "He might hit that copy of Windows 95 by
accident." =


"Oh, Bill's gotten pretty good with that laser," the Microsoft man said
nervously. "Okay. I wasn't supposed to do this, but you leave me no
choice. If you take this copy of Windows 95, we will reward you
handsomely. In fact, we'll give you your own Caribbean island! How does
Montserrat sound?" =


"Terrible. There's an active volcano there." =


"It's only a small one," the Microsoft man said. =


"Look," I said, "even if you DID convince me to take that copy of
Windows 95, what would you do then? You'd have totally saturated the
market. That would be it. No new worlds to conquer. What would you do
then?" =


The Microsoft man held up another box and gave it to me. =


"'Windows 95....For Pets'?!?!?" =


"There's a LOT of domestic animals out there," he said. =


I shut the door quickly. There was a surprised yelp, the sound of a
laser, and then nothing.

problem that the 360k drives will not read disks written by the 1.2meg =

The cause is the heads on the 1.2meg drive are 1/2 the size, so make a =

track thinner than the 360k heads. If there is 360k information on the =
disk,
the 1.2 will not erase all the areas swept by the 360k heads and the syst=

then probably they have been erased...

FWIW, I have some 1985 360k floppies with programs on that read fine on
my 1988 Sanyo Luggable 8088 (360k drive, 640k memory, 20meg HD) and
also on my pentium desktop which has a 1.2meg drive.

What can I say Andres!
You've been had!
Like all the other innocent boys and gals who thought that Bill (gates) &
Bill (hewlett) together must be a dream team come true!
Not so!
Evolution goes by leaps and bounds, and if we think in terms of life cycles
(like I do as a management consultant) then the evolutionary cycle of
palmtop technology has just switched from the differentiated phase  (where
manufacturers will try to increase the worth of their products to their
customers by incorporating novel features) to a mature stage where the
manufacturers battle it out providing a common spec, promiting their goods
as commodity items rather than novelties, increased competition and
eventually lowered prices and 2 or three surviving major manufacturers.

In this (bloody!) process no-one really cares about the value to the
customer - it has been established in the previous phase, and is now in the
hands of the Marketing Boys who will see to it that the majority of
potential customers get what they want. Unfortunately, the (silent)
majority is seldom "right", "informed" or "smart" - nor do they know what
they want or what is good for them. Example: Coca Cola decided to abandon
what is now known as "classic" Coke after extensive work by these marketing
guys. The Vox Populi jost did not come out strong in support of the
characteristics of Classic Coke, and so it was axed. Only then did the
public cry out. Good for us the marketing guys at Coca Cola admitted their
mistake! Our loss that the marketing guys at HP are not so perceptive! :-(

Example 2: Development work at Redmond roughly follows these lines:
(Comments in brackets represent Redmond-think.)
1) What does the customer want? (= what has the "enemy" been selling them)
2) How can we satisfy them? (= Can we buy the enemy? Can we incorporate
their ideas as the 14th choice in a pull-down menu in one of our products?
Can we crush them by giving similar products away for free?)

Since Mr. Gates has become the shining star of successfull capitalism -
this thought process is enviously copied all over the world. Unfortunately,
(IMHO) since he is preaching a pervertet form of capitalism based not on
free competition but on a warrior philosophy that views fellow competitors
as mortal enemies to be defeated and killed instead of just overtaken and
beaten.

Groups such as ours represent the avant-garde of palmtop use, and our needs
are the future needs of the general public. By neglecting us, they are
eventually neglecting their own mass market, and if not corrected that will
lead to their demise.

... end of rant!
Regarding your 620:
Sad to hear that Bill's (Gates) marketing guys did not get your needs
right!
As you may have gathered from the above, the majority of people canvassed
in their marketing research had no idea that more than one database was
even needed!
Possibly because they targeted their product as an advanced PIM and as a
platform for Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook and Word.
If braindead versions of those products are not enough for you, you can
always dump your 620 and buy a real computer, or wait untill the CE
platform evolves into something useful! (Could take a while, though!)

Sorry to sound so pissed, but your mail just triggered my frustration with
the industry. We have heard on this list testemony to the quality,
workmanship and engineering of HP products in times gone by (plotters,
HPGL, HP-85/86, HP-41C, etc) and it is sad that this era is no more. But
life goes on, and I for one will try to make my voice heard as a promoter
of marketing and engineering guided by honest, intelligent thought and
aspirations wherever these matters are discussed.

Yessir!
I have both 1,2M and 360 drives (and even the odd 8" drive - and that is a
wonderful piece of engineering!!) - only trouble is I live in Norway. But
in this day and age of FedEx and DHL, that ought not to be a problem if you
can't find someone locally! :-)

Cheers and keep up the good work!
Paul

PS: Most of my old 360k disks reads just fine in a 1.2 M drive! It is
usually the other way around that fails i.e. writing on a 1.2M and trying
to read on a 360!

Don't worry, I was only kidding.  This all reminds me of certain analities

BTW, for all those that want to know if owning a 200LX includes a license
for DOS 5.0...  WHO CARES!!!    You can't BUY a new copy from MS anyway.
They WON'T support it.  Your license is pointless. (I just love uncorking
helminths in a metal cylinder. <g>)

Ian,

I think Shier systems still sells the cable.  As for the AC Adapter, BUY a
tiny one from Times2Tech.  (Email Mack).  His adapters lick mass. I mean,
they weigh less than air, and are really neato, man.  About half the volume
(aprox 1.5x1.5") of the HP adapter and stay cool as cucumbers with .8ma
output.  OF course, they only work with US voltage, not european 220.

Buy one, you'll be glad.

Since it appears that Y2K problems will render my Word 5.0 useless, I'm eyeing
Word 5.5 for DOS.

My question is: What is the *minimum* functional installation of Word 5.5 on a

Or, better yet, can I simply copy over a few Word 5.5 files into my 200LX's Word

Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

1.2M drives read 360K without problems. The problem
I am having is media decay causing dirty heads and a drive
that won't read 1.2M without cleaning. A 360K drive would
probably be a better idea. Identifying old drives for 360 or 1.2M
takes a table of drives which can be found in theref43.zip on Simtel
(look at the fd_ref*.* files).

Subject:      LX replacement

If you're ready to replace your x00lx with a new CE unit, there are a few
new products which may ease the transition.

Ian Dean just released the commercial version of XTCE.  XTCE emulates XT
hardware and allows CE users to run DOS and many DOS and PAL apps on the
CE systems.

Try either:   http://www.pyram-id.demon.co.uk/XTCE/XTCEDemo20_SH3.zip
or    http://www.pyram-id.demon.co.uk/XTCE/XTCEDemo20_MIPS.zip    for a
demo.

Also, you can now code C on the CE units.  Try http://www.orbworks.com/
for PocketC.

As promising as these products may seem.  I personally feel the HP200lx
has no equal.  To run the two applications listed above at any reasonable
speed requires the HP620lx or 660lx.  I can pack my 200lx, batteries,
power adapter, serial cable, serial-parallel converter, modem, three CF
cards and converter, and a null modem adapter in the same space as just
the HP620.  I could even throw in a microprinter and still be a smaller
package than the 620.

Size does matter.

Subject:      Wanted HP200LX, and advice

I am about to buy my first HP200LX, and need some advice.

1.  Does anyone have a 2MB to sell?
    (Don't need any extras, except a cable and flash memory)

2.  I'll need basic upload/download capability between the
    200LX and my PC.  What is the most cost-effective option?

3.  Any recommendations for vendors to buy new from?  I am
    thinking of Inacom or Comp. Solutions of San Antonio.
    (Educalc no longer carries it)

4.  Any recommendation on non-expensive sources of flash
    memory? (I'll need part numbers)  Is this the cheapest way to
    add on memory?  (I don't need the slot for peripherals like
    network or modem cards)

Looking forward to being on this list, and learning from your
collective experience.

I think you'll be very happy with your 620LX. The color screen, =
integration with WinNT or 95/98, applications such as Pocket Streets and =
the built-in web browser make it a must-have. The down-side is the =
inability to see the screen outdoors (especially here in So CA) and the =
diminished battery life. However, you could pick up a 360LX for such =
purposes.=20

The database concerns should go away in CE2.1 - i.e., they'll be able to =
be located on a CF card or locations other than Object Store. I also =
suggest the  Extended Battery - 11-12 hours of use without a modem.=20

All in all, it's an extremely well built, well thought out product and =
an excellent choice for an upgrade from the 200LX.

If you're ready to replace your x00lx with a new CE unit, there are a =
few
new products which may ease the transition.

Ian Dean just released the commercial version of XTCE.  XTCE emulates XT
hardware and allows CE users to run DOS and many DOS and PAL apps on the
CE systems.

Try either:   http://www.pyram-id.demon.co.uk/XTCE/XTCEDemo20_SH3.zip
or    http://www.pyram-id.demon.co.uk/XTCE/XTCEDemo20_MIPS.zip    for a
demo.

Also, you can now code C on the CE units.  Try http://www.orbworks.com/
for PocketC.

As promising as these products may seem.  I personally feel the HP200lx
has no equal.  To run the two applications listed above at any =
reasonable
speed requires the HP620lx or 660lx.  I can pack my 200lx, batteries,
power adapter, serial cable, serial-parallel converter, modem, three CF
cards and converter, and a null modem adapter in the same space as just
the HP620.  I could even throw in a microprinter and still be a smaller
package than the 620.

Size does matter.

I don't but if you keep an eye in comp.sys.palmtops you can usually
find one for about 200 with cable, and ac adapter. Sometimes with
flash and the connectivity pack too.

I use the built-in laplink with laplink remote. Got LLR free with
my laptop. You can always just use the built-in LL by itself. Check
the 200LX FAQ on how to do this, Or use LXTools for Dos or Zip.
Both of these are availible from the SUPER site (www.palmtop.net)

Thaddeus. Shier Systems, One Stop Palmtop Shop. Thaddeus sells
the 32 meg doublespeed.

Yes, its the cheapest. Again keep an eye on the newsgroups. You
can find some good used deals. Although flash may be the cheapest
I wouldn't discount the possibilty of doing the 32 meg upgrade instead
and use your main computer for backups. Once you find out just how
convient it is to have the HP doing
all your tasks you may decide you want to use the slot for a modem.
If I was starting out from scratch again the first thing I would do
is get the 32 meg, doublespeed upgrade and a 33.6k modem. (Although I still think its
overpriced:)). There's a real advantage to be able to store everything
in ram.

Bernie, I can't say that I agree with you in regards to the 200LX.

But if you're using your 620LX (or whatever system) can't you configure your
emailer on there to stop adding the binary attachments? (in keeping with the
restrictions on the tag line). There must be a simple setting somewhere...

Call Shier systems at 805-371-9891

They used to sell the complete external keyboard, description is at

http://www.shier.com/Newtkb.html

They haven't had any in stock for a while because Apple will not sell
to them anymore becuase they are not an authorized reseller. BUT, I
was able to order a stock keyboard from PC Connection for $79.95
plus $6 ship, and have them ship it directly to Shier, and they did
the conversion for $55, I think it was  about 3 weeks turnaround
total. You have to tell Debbie there to arrange it this way.

They keyboard works great, it's easy to carry around in a
pouch, and still a heck of a lot more portable than a laptop, and
batteries last a lot longer. I've already written one column mostly
on this setup.

This may not be totally true. I got an email from David on 7/14 saying that
they had "about 30" keyboards in stock. Since I thought the same thing about
them being out of stock, I had already bought mine from Buycomp.com ($69.95).
David was kind enough to supply me with the custom cable and it works quite
well. I also got the custom serial cable for the Citizen PN60i at the same
time.

Santosh,

Check out www.ebay.com. It's an online auction system that allows you
to bid on just about anything. From the home page, go to
Computers/Hardware/Portable and do a search on 200lx. I just
checked, and there's one available that's bidding at about
$111.00. If you're not in a hurry, check back there every
few days. I seem to find new 200lx for sale every week or so.

You have to register to bid, but it's free. I recently bought a
like-new 200lx with manuals and cable for $175.00 (for a
backup).

I just received my Palmtop Wetsuit 2.0 from www.daytimer.com (choose Store,
Technology Products, then Computer Cases). I'm very pleased with it.

It's not a belt case (it has no loops or straps) -- it's a form-fitting cover
that's meant to be like a second skin for the 95/100/200LX. It's made of black
neoprene that's water-resistant and stretchy, and provides enough paddding to
protect your palmtop from scrapes and dings. It zips open on three sides and
also has a full width zipper pocket. It comes with 4 peel-and-stick Velcro tabs
to affix the case to the palmtop whether it is closed or open.

They also make a Palmtop Wetsuit 1.0 for the larger HPCs and Zauruses (Zauri?)
as well as Notebook Wetsuits for many notebooks (these have straps, and plastic
protective plates inside).

I recommend this for USD 9.99, and especially for the USD 8.00 price someone
mentioned they found it at.

I have checked these out... Through a nice coincidence, his location is
about 6 blocks from my home in Gilroy, Ca.  I have sent this gentleman
an email, hopefully he will be willing to release a 200LX-compatible
version of his keyboard.  We will see... :)  With luck, I'll be able to

It seems that Outlook attaches a "signature" or something to the end of
each message, in MIME format.  This is the text that Pine displays for
this attachment:

So whatever an "MS-TNEF" application is, that's what it attaches.  :)  I
would suspect there's an option somewhere to turn this off...

I too... get these attachments via PINE. I've gotten used to them to the
point where I just automatically delete them... I also don't like the
html encoded messages that we sometimes receive. It's a shame there's no
way for the server to filter these things to oblivion.

If you could READ (apparently not a requirement for using CE) you
would find out that the poster was perfectly happy with his 200LX.
Here I'll quote it for you:

I've been wondering forever and keep forgetting to ask this question..

There is a utility called MakeEXM in the Freyja editor archive, but all that
is said is that MakeEXM will use MicroSoft or Borland MAP files.  How is this
map created?  At compile time, or is there a separate utility to create it?
I'd love to do this for a few small DOS utilities I have.

Thanks!

Subject:      Simple Tech 40 MB flash card comments and 1K clusters
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Well, I have had my new Simple Technologies 40 MB ATA flash card for a few
days now.  It replaced a 20 MB HP ATA flash card (made by Sundisk).  The
card was recognized instantly by my 200LX.  I didn't need any drivers, and
the disk was already formatted.

I ran the TEST.BAT program from this list (from several months ago) and
the result on my 2X speed 200LX was 6.54 seconds.  This is quite a bit
faster than my 10 and 20 MB Sundisk cards (around 15-17 seconds I seem to
recall).  The great majority of that time is write time, and for the most
part, I can't tell any difference in performance since I almost never save
files larger than about 100K.  However, if you often save large files (e. g.,
swap to disk for Software Carousel, compiling, very large databases,
etc.), I think you'll notice a difference.  For me, the main effect I see
is in the delay when I go to Filer.  With the Sundisk cards, the delay was
about 3 seconds.  The S.T. card is about half that.  So far, the battery
life doesn't seem to be affected either way compared to the other cards.

Overall, it works great for me.

A request for help:
I'd like to reformat the disk to 1K clusters (instead of 4K).  However,
the 1K cluster program (on SUPER) will only format up to a 32 MB card.
Anyone know aworkaround?  Is anyone interested in re-writing the program
to handle larger cards?  I wonder if the limitation is due to the number
of clusters the LX can manage.

Subject:      Memory upgrades
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain

Hi,

I have a question for the list.

I am looking into memory upgrades for my HP200LX - 2 Meg.  I have found
upgrades at Thaddeus, Marcan, and Times 2 Tech.

My goal is to increase the size of my ram disk for the least amount of
investment.  I think that a 4 meg upgrade will do nicely for my needs.
Anything above that looks pretty pricey.

I got pricing information from all three sources, and I felt that Marcan had
the best memory to price ratio.

My questions are:

1. How many of you decided to get the Marcan 4 Meg upgrade.
2. What kind of problems ( if any ) have you had.
3. If you were buying a 4 meg upgrade, which one would you buy ? ( and why )
4. Are there any other memory upgrade sources I should know about.


Thanks in Advance,
Jon C.

Heh heh... no, Mitch is on the up-and-up.  He runs the SUPER site, and
I've purchased several items from him by sending him a check in
anticipation of the merchandise, and he always delivers.  The Dictionary
raffle isn't a scam, it's just that the American Heritage Dictionary is
very hard to find now and there are so many people who would want it that
Mitch wanted to make sure everybody got a chance.

Try to find a program called bootmod it will solve your problem. While
you're at try also slack.zip a program that tells you how much space your
losing with the several cluster sizes the card is formated to. If you have
difficulties locating the programs send me a private email.

I hope that you'll be very happy with your 620LX.

All in all, it's an extremely well built, well
thought out product and an excellent choice
for a downgrade from the 200LX.

It also makes an inneresting paperweight.
Looks better than a brick, an will be a great
(hours of) conversation piece.

Better you than me.....

Bidding doesn't really start until the last few hours.

Go to this page on Ebay:
          http://pages.ebay.com/aw/search.html
Search on 200lx and choose closed auctions.
It will show you what they went for over the past month.
Usually $200 or better.  You may get lucky, especially
if you watch Ebay like a hawk.

Hi All

I am charging a set of 1200 Mah RS NIMH batteries in my 200lx

I am using a 200ma 12V charger and it seems to be working ok

My q is how many hours should I charge these and what voltage should I
expect the batts to go to?

The LX and the charger are running cool..Voltage is now 2.7 V and has been
on High charge for 3.6 hours..

Any info appreciated..

Hear, hear - not to mention that you need extra sets of batteries to run
a 620 (at <=3D speed as a 200lx and with unknown bugs that will make your=

life interesting) giving even more space.

However, we should not always be negative about the 620;
on the positive side: your pockets will be pretty empty when you have
paid for the 620, so you will have ample space for batteries where your
money used to be.

One thing I like about the HP620lx is the stylus-shooter.  It'd be nice
if the 200lx came with that feature and a slightly stronger spring.  I
don't want the touch-screen but fling styli at CE types would be a
chuckle.  (No real offense to anyone; my wife is a CE type and I even use
it on occasion.  It is only a Compaq C120+, however, that I got for $50
new.)

For those who find Info Select difficult to read in 80X25:

1. From the DOS prompt, enter dispctl -c to disable
cursor tracking. (Dispctl is in the d:\bin directory.)

2. Within Info Select, change the maximum number
of windows:

A for Adjust
W for Windows
Arrow down (twice, I think) to Max Visible Windows
1 (or whatever) for Maximum

3. Fn-Space to Zoom

Now as you use the arrow keys to move from window
to window, each appears at the top left of the screen.
The windows no longer jump around and force you to
scroll to view the contents.

Thanks to Fred Kaufman of CompuServe's HPHAND
forum for the keys to this solution.

get 300 mA? Then you'd only have charge 6 hours:).

For what reason are you guys playing with Disk Optimizers? AFAIR, the
purpose of a disk optimizer is to put files in one contiguous part on the
disk, rather than have them scattered all over the disk. The advantage of
this is that the head of the disk doesn't has the move so often to read a
file. The head of the disk.... THE HEADS? Hey, the LX200 doesn't has a
physical disk at all! For a RAM disk, it doesn't matter at all whether a
file is in one conitguous block or not. You can save yourself some valuable
RAM by deleting the disk optimizer. That't the only difference I see
between an "optimized" and non-optimized LX200!

I also wondered when I got my Palmtop why HP puts this BUFFERS=30 statement
in the Config.Sys. Same idea. The purpose on regular machines was to
"cache" some disk information in RAM, because RAM is faster than a disk.
However, the PalmTop has not a real disk, but just RAM. To save information
in RAM, to avoid to need to have to read it from RAM is, err, weird...

Anyone playing around with a disk caching software?

Well, if I recall correctly, the RAM it treats as conventional memory is
read a little faster than the RAM it treats as the C: drive, due to the
overhead of the BIOS routines for emulating the disk and all...

This may be less pronounced (or even absent altogether) with the 32MB
drive from Times2 Tech and Thaddeus, since Mack's driver is faster than
the built-in driver for the C: drive, but I'm not sure.

Some programs, like emm200 (an extended memory manager) requires the
diskspace it uses to emulate extended memory, to be contiguous.

Also, what if you have to recover files?

When I was using my RS 1200's, they were charging to 2.81v (measured
using ABC/LX). I forget how long it took to chrage, but they never
reached the voltage levels of other types I tried.

It is high time we took the periodic 620lx trolls seriously.

In aid of this, I have taken editorial licence and reformatted some
recent posts which showed these trolls the respect they deserve.
Please consider adding to it when the next troll appears:

WHY THE HP620LX IS BETTER THAN THE HP200LX
------------------------------------------

- One thing I like about the HP620lx is the stylus-shooter.  It'd be nice
if the 200lx came with that feature and a slightly stronger spring...
        - Larry Zimmerman

- It also makes an interesting paperweight. Looks better than a brick,
and will be a great conversation piece.
        - al chin

- Your pockets will be pretty empty when you have paid for the 620, so
you will have ample space for batteries where your money used to be.
        - Jorgen Dybdahl


To my shame, I can't think of one reason to add why the 620lx is better.

If you are talking about the second skin cover....it is NOT strong enough for
a belt loop.  The nylon Ripoff one has a belt loop and it is more rugged.  Jon
Barrett (Jon, email me!) sent me his old Ripoff case and I have made a pattern
from it.   I have a custom leather business and will make up a lined, full-
leather case that will have a belt (holster) clip and an internal pocket for a
couple cards.  I have no idea of the price yet....

the second skin case is thin...good for a protection from scratches...but not
much from knocks.  It is small and that is its main benefit.

This is indeed typical of the latest breed of email clients, esp. from
Micro$haft. They embed all sorts of crap in an attachment that only the
same client can understand. You'll find such things as receipt requests =
and
text font/colour info in there - if you know how to decode it.

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

I have not given up the fight to get LXTCP working again on my machine.
Working with David Sargeant, I believe we have narrowed it down to the
ISP I use (Netcom). Here is how we figured it out:

* I loaded up the enabler and packet driver for my Accton ethernet card
then modified the WATTCP.CFG to show a static IP address and the
gateway of my Linux server. Everything worked great.

* Next, I zipped up my complete LXTCP directory and emailed it to
David. Using my exact settings except for my username/password, he
connected successfully to accessnv.com (his ISP).

* Next, he set up a temporary account for me on accessnv.com and I also
made a successful connection from Cincinnati using my settings.

* Finally, he is going to test my account on Netcom from Las Vegas and
I expect he will find the same problems that I am seeing.

Comparing a debug dump for his successful connects to my unsuccessful
ones does not turn up anything glaring. Both look almost exactly the
same and both have a good PPP connection running.

Can anyone shed light on this? It has to be something with Netcom's
terminal servers or some anomaly with their network. Could it be my
modem init string? I have tried different MRU settings so that's not
it. Is there some PPP compression that could be biting me? Does anyone
else use LXTCP and Netcom?

Sorry for the bandwidth, but this is the world's greatest collection of
HPLX experts so if this can't be solved here, it can't be solved. :)

You may try to find a walkman case, usually having two compartments.
Size will not fit ideally to the LX, but it's rugged, with belt loop anf
inexpensive.

In Germany I've found one manufactured by 'CASELOGIC'.

HP-Palmtops: Formatted Printing           Author: Hermann Kellinghaus;
March/2/96
-------------------------------

Printing documents directly to a printer usually involves some problem
solving, for there aren't many users having a printer which can be
connected to the serial interface (RS232 or Infrared) of the palmtop.
Often one or several of the following problems are to overcome with
'direct' printing:

 1 selecting a printer on the palmtop (in Setup)
 2 preparing the document for printing
 3 connecting the palmtop to a printer
   3.1 direct with a serial cable
   3.2 direct with a serial/parallel converter
   3.3 via PC as printserver

There are some other methods to get a printout of palmtop documents:
 - printing to a file on the palmtop; transfer of this file to a PC with
a Comm-Prgr or on a PC-Card; printout of this file on the PC;
 - using a connectivity pack (HP or other brand) on a PC.

The last method can be accomplished in two ways: either transfer the
document to the PC or mount the palmtop drive, which contains the
document file. In both cases setup for printing and some other
selections have to be done on the PC (f.ex. selection of a smart-clip).
These other methods are not covered in this article since they are
understood as 'indirect'.

The direct methods have an advantage over the indirect methods:
After all necessary setups have been done, everything is handled on the
palmtop; same procedure - nothing to forget about. Also palmtop macros
can ease the job a lot.

Now lets have a look at the different problem areas which arise with
direct printing:

First of all we should dig into the general problem of char handling in
documents:

Ther are different char-sets: PC-437, PC-850, HP-Roman-8, EPSON-Italic,
...
All of these are based on char-codes ranging from 0 to 254
(hexadecimal:00h-1Fh).
Char-sets are also called char-tables but are not to be confused with
fonts, which define text style (Roman, Sans-Serif, Courir,...) or with
printing effects like bold, underlined, italic, condensed, ...).
Sometimes its hard not to get confused, because of historical reasons
EPSON invented the char-set 'Italic' to manage the printing effect
'italic' - this ist still there today.
In this document we are on the DOS level, dealing with pixel fonts for
display on the palmtop and pixel fonts buildt into the printer for
printout (some printers now have scalable fonts, but thats irrelevant
here). In any case these fonts are based on a char-set. If you don't
care about, the printer will use defaults for that. On the palmtop you
can select between the PC-437 or PC-850 char-sets. (There are some add
ons available: see f. ex. KEYBEZ.)

At this point we also should clarify the term Escape- or
Control-sequence (ESC-S or Ctrl-S for short). Its necessary to control
the actions of a device like a printer or terminal; f.ex to set the
cursor to the first position of the text line or to move the printers
head to the leftmost position, the Ctrl-S 'CR' is used. 'CR' stands for
Carriage Return; code 13 (Dh) of the char-set is used for this (for
Terminal and printer). 'CR' is a short Ctrl-S; its one of the old
fashioned Ctrl-S using codes 0 to 31 of the char-set. Some other Ctrl-S
are initiated by 'ESC', which itself has code 27 (1Bh) of the
char-set.'ESC' is followed by a certain number of char-codes -the
corresponding ESC-S is decoded by the device.

Examples: (T = Terminal, PR = Printer)
BS      = 8               = 8h                  : Back-Space on T and PR
HT      = 9               = 9h                  : Horiz.-Tab on T and PR
LF      = 10              = Ah                  : Line-Feed  om T and PR
Xon     = 17              = 11h                 : SW-Flow-Contrl for
serial Comm
Xoff    = 19              = 19h                 : SW-Flow-Contrl for
serial Comm
ESCln   = 27 108 nd       = 1Bh 6Ch nh          : Left Margin at Column
n (see below)
ESCx1   = 27 120 49       = 1Bh 78h 31h         : Letter Qual on - on an
EPSON PR
ESC-1   = 27 45 49        = 1Bh 2Dh 31h         : Underline on - on an
EPSON PR
ESC(s3B = 27 40 115 51 66 = 1Bh 28h 73h 33h 42h : Bold on a HP Pr

Two remarks may be useful:
 1. Several EPSON printer commands (ESC-S) use variable parameters, like
the n-parameter of the left-margin command. Some of those parameters can
be entered as usual characters (f. ex. 0 =  48 = 30h or 1 = 49 = 31h)
but others have to be entered as Ctrl-Char, having code 00h to 31h. This
is the case for the left-margin command: to set the margin to column
eight you must enter ESC l BS = 27 108 8 = 1Bh 6Ch 08h (without spaces).
You may enter BS with the BS-key of your keyboard, but this usually will
result in deletion of the char left to the cursor; you can try the
AltNum-keypad method (AltMenuNum-keypad on HPx00LX), but this
will have the same result as above (see 3.3 for a solution).

 2. Most ESC-S for HP printers are setup of a leading ESC, followed by
usual characters - so you don't run into the problems with other
Ctrl-characters except for ESC itself.

Now we are ready for problem areas 1 to 3:

1. Selecting a printer on the palmtop
-------------------------------------
In SETUP there are three printers (actually these are the palmtop
printer interfaces) you can select of: EPSON FX-80, IBM ProPrinter, HP
Laserjet. In general the first one has the simplest (oldest) the last
one a modern (newest) printing concept. FX-80 and ProPrinter are based
on EPSON technology whereas Laserjet is ofcourse based on HP printing
technology.

Now you may wonder about one fact with these printer interfaces: All
interfaces apply character conversions - mainly for the characters with
codes from 128 to 254.
The real bad thing is: you cannot switch this conversion off. So there
is no way to send the internal palmtop char table (PC-437 or PC-850) to
the printer as is.

For the HP-Laserjet table PC-850 is converted to char-table Roman-8,
which is the HP-Printer standard.
For the IBM-Proprinter all chars above 1Fh are sent as ESC 6h chr-code-h
ESC 7h, which switches to chae-set-2 on the printer (usually
IBM-Char-Set-2 = PC-850). This printer interface should be used also for
modern EPSON printers, for they can behave almost like IBM-Proprinters.

For the FX-80, basically you are "loosing a lot of special characters" -
they are converted to normal ones.

Observe that for the Memo-Editor the palmtop sends printer control codes
according to the selected printer interface for bold and underline; TAB
is converted to spaces so there is a problem with proportional printer
fonts when using TABs.

Subject:      LX<=>Olympus Digit Camera ???
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi all there,

I would like to connect an Olympus digital camera (Camedia xxx) via
serial line to my 200LX, to download the images *and* save them on a
ZIP-Drive via PCMCIA/Parallel-card.

The "only" part missing is a program on the 200LX which can handle the
Olympus serial interface and download the files. Olympus delivers such
programs for Wind95 and for the MAC, but not for DOS.

Is there some technical information on the Olympus serial interface
somewhere?

I've tried the LX Communication-Prgrs - no reaction at all.

I've tried to get some information from Olympus - no success till now.

Thanks
  Hermann

The Cable is 9 Pin at the 'LX-Side' and 3-Pin at the camera (like a
small plug of a stereo earphone). So there can only be Ground, Send and
Receive.
With the W95 Prgr I can use 9600 up to 115200 Baud; I think it uses 8N1
setting.

I forgot to use a second null modem, since the LX serial cable is a null
modem cable. So the camera is connected like modem to the serial IF of
the 200LX (no crossing of Send and Receive signals).

With that connection I get at least a certain reaction:

LX-settings (Comm-Prgr): 9600 Baud, Com1, 8N1, TTY Terminal, no
Modem-Init string, no protocol (RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF), local echo

After hitting F10 (connect) at the LX, I may have to proceed with Break
(Ctrl Menu).

Entering a letter (f.ex a) at the LX, I get back a code like f0 or fb or
ff (in hex) most of the time, sometimes a usual letter is sent back.

If nothing is sent to the camera for a while, it turns off itsself - by
sending another letter, it's waking up again.


I've tried the file download protocols of the LX Comm-Prgr, but had no
success.

-----

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?

Thanks
  Hermann

Hi List readers
A weekend off topic item.

I plan to backpack to S.E.Asia this winter Dec-Feb
and wonder if anyone would like to meet me along the way.
My itinerary is expected to be from Chiangmai in northern
Thailand south to Singapore, stoping in Bangkok, Penang,
Kuala Lumpur, where ever along the way.

I realize that most people will not have three months
off to lallygag, but I'd be happy if you can meet me
part of the time, part of the way, I can perchance share
a few things with you. You can also partake in gemology,
cooking, boxing, or massage courses in Thailand.  A great
(clean safe)room in Thailand cost under $15/night with pool.

I would also like to meet some of our list members who
live on my route of travel if they have the time. Those of
you interested, pls email me directly so we can plan
accordingly. I can consider diversions to Burma, Laos, and
Vietnam.

No, I am not a travel agent.

Better to be than to have,
yor pal al :) .............

Cathy,
Please post more info (price) when you can. Being a lover of LXes, your
product should be much superior to the others.

Thanks,

Dan,
No it is not a scam.  Mitch Hamm runs S.U.P.E.R. site (www.palmtop.net)
and provides excellent service to the HPLX community.  It was because of
this I donated 2 of the dictionary copies to him so he could sell them
with the proceeds going towards support of S.U.P.E.R.

Eeerr, fast charging is 100mA, 45mA slow charging..  I personally set BatSet
to 20 hours and leave it at that, it's not going to sit there for nearly that
long and besides, it would take nearly that long to fully charge the
batteries, and 100mA is much lower than slow charging for these batteries, as
fast charging is 1.2A for 1 hour and slow charging is 400mA for 4 hours.
That's 1600mA input, I'd imagine at 100mA it would take more like 2000mA
input, and that's 20 hours.  It's such a slow charge that it shouldn't hurt
them either way, and I don't think the palmtop is capabile of charging these
batteries internally to their full capacity, mine straight off the adaptor
only gets me about 35 minutes on my 14.4 modem, about 5 minutes longer than my
high-cap nicads.

Someday I'll get a charger and try it, but it's not worth it to swap batteries
all the time..  Besides, one time I swapped batteries and for some really odd
reason the ram disk was totally munged afterwords so I'm scared to now.. :)

I don't have a microprinter (yet).  I did, however, see one in a catalog
from one of the few remaining palmtop shops.  If I recall, the dimensions
were something in the area of 9"x2"x1".  My wife used to have a handheld
copier that was the same size as the HP200lx - it was made in '84; I keep
thinking it would be cool if it could be converted into a scanner along
with some OCR capabilities.

Hello to the list.

I have a new 200LX (well, new to me), and some of the
applications are "missing", notably LLRemote.  I wanted to try
it in server mode.  I know the application is in ROM, just
don't know how to get to it.  Can anyone help?

Is there a better way to do this?

Hi Claud,

Sounds like you need to do a ctrl+shift+on to initialize you c:\ drive.
This will re-install all of the built in apps.

On a normal 200LX, you can't delete the LLRemote icon from AppMgr.

The other times I've heard of missing internal icons, it was because the
user had copied the entire contents of their 100LX to a new 200LX, thereby
overwiting the file (I forget which) that had the icon definitions.
I think the other case involved a missing ccMail icon.

If you comepletely reinitialize your C drive (after saving everything and
maybe noting how any of your custom icons were setup), the icon screen
that comes up should have LLRemote...then just add your stuff back in.

My questions are:
>1. How many of you decided to get the Marcan 4 Meg upgrade.
I got an upgrade from Marcan 6mos. ago, even got to speak with the tech
that did the upgrade.
>2. What kind of problems ( if any ) have you had.
Absolutely no problems. Rock solid and the extra 4.5 meg is great!
>3. If you were buying a 4 meg upgrade, which one would you buy ? ( and
why )
By all means,I'd re-purchase from Marcan. Great product, you can't beat
the price (I believe all other sources use Times2tech's upgrade- good
but pricey), and quick turnaround without charging a ridiculous $55 !
>4. Are there any other memory upgrade sources I should know about
The only other source I know of is the "One Stop Palmtop Shop". However,
as I said before, I believe based on info from Times2, Thaddeus, and One
Stop that they all use the Times2 kit and are more expensive. Let me
hastily state that our computing community owes much to Mack as he
originated most if not all of the American upgrades. Unfortunately, I
cannot afford a Cadillac on a Chevy salary.

I've thought that a handheld scanner for the hp200lx would be a great
research tool:
        You're reading, you find a good quote, you scan it.
        You can scan the citation, too.
        Ditto for references to other works
No need to photocopy, no need to type, no need to copy by hand.

Howdy Al!

The leather I will make the cases out of will be a grained, black cowhide.  It
is pliable, with a cushioning affect.   The second skin one could be used
inside of the leather one, no problem.

Ooops Al....forgot, the leather is weather resistant.   I use this same
leather for my $800. camera's case and also for my Walkman's case.   It does
not show any wear or scratches.   I use Velcro for closures for this type of

I'm in the area for a few days. Where are all the Fry's Electronics
around here? Are there any other "don't miss" places to check out for
computer stuff?

Sorry for the repeat as I remember a "Bay Area Shopping" thread
sometime back, but I don't have the luxury of a good web connection so
can't browse the archives. Please email me directly if you think the
list would not be interested.

Thanks!

  Come on people.  He doesn't need to nuke the whole C: drive to reinit the
one file...

  Claud, all you have to do is:
     1. exit the Applications manager (Quit from the &More screen)
     2. rename your c:\_dat\appmgr.dat file to something like appmgr.old
     3. run the Applications Mgr again...

  Before doing the above, you might want to write down any non-internal apps
you've got installed so you can re-install them in your new appmgr.dat file
once it's created.  I suggested renaming the file rather than deleting it so
you could switch back later if you realised you forgot something.  (And,
before you ask, "No, sorry, but there's no easy way to cut and paste
application-records from one appmgr.dat file to the other....")

  Yes it will.
  If he answers "Y"es to the "Initialize RAM disk?" question it will also
obliterate EVERYTHING on his C: drive!!

  Why tell him how to "initialize" his C: drive without giving him any
warning at all that by doing so he'd loose everything he might have spent as
much as a month typing in??  (Especially when it's TOTALLY unnecessary to
solve the problem he asked about....)

  I'm not trying to discourage people from trying to help.  Just trying to
get people to THINK a little more before they tell someone to do something
without first warning them of the consequences.  (At least when the
consequences are so VERY extreme and especially if it's something that might
NOT be obvious to a novice user...)

Along those lines, digital cameras may be a better answer in the near
future. Canon Powershot 600 is already billed for its reputed ability
to take close-up shots of sufficient quality to process via OCR software
(which comes bundled with the camera). Don't know about how good the
stuff is, but at the fast rate of digicam development, we should be able
to relegate the image capture to the camera (which we can obviously use
for other things also) and the OCR function to the computer to do in its
spare time.

Apparently the automatic digest processor has learned from the bad

appropriately - right after a stern warning about not doing so.

Who says computers do not learn from humans? And they learn the same

Bruce,

I'm thinking about buying a Palmtop Wetsuit 2.0 and I have a few questions:

 - When open, does the top cover easily fall back and out of the way?

 - When typing with your 200LX resting on a flat surface, does the cover
   cause stability problems, like rocking back and forth?

Thanks.

Yikes.  I've just noticed that I've got some vertical lines on my screen.

Vertical lines are very fixable.  Horizontal lines are catastrophic.

The vertical line problem is generally trouble with the zebra strips along
the top and bottom of the screen.  Sometimes they get a little out of
alignment, or a little bit of dirt gets in there.  In any case, all it
needs is a good cleaning and realignment to get it back in shape.  The
trouble is, it's fairly easy to kill your LCD if you try this and aren't
extremely careful...

I oughta update the instructions on my web site soon with instructions on
how to do this.

Alternatively, Thaddeus will repair it for $125.

Look, the problem of missing lines in the display is generally caused
by a fabrication deffect in the elastomes : a strip of plastic and
metal.
The elastomer is a concatenation of metal (conducts electricity) and
plastic (a polymer called elastomer) piceces.
This materials have different dilatation coefficients, thus at lower
temperatures they (may be) have the same heigh, and at higher temps
(lower : around 32F, higer >50F) the plastic have a heigh greater than
the metal by dilatation effect.
I have a 48SX with this problem.

A good solution, change the elastomer, but find the right may be
difficult.
The controoler chips and the screen may be in a good state, you ca try
moving the elastomer in the x axis (x is the longer direction of the
elastomer), mey be work.

good luck

Interesting. A friend and I tested 2 x 160MB Simple Tech PC Cards in a
double-speed, 32MB 200LX last Thursday and both cards had 4KB clusters.
There was a 2-3 second latency between the startup of the 200LX and
recognition of the 160MB card. Other than that, the cards worked well and
were considerably faster than other PC Cards he had tested.

BTW, he also had an older, 40MB 12/5 volt Sundisk card and the same latency
noticed on the 160MB was noticed on the 40MB card.

Does everyone agree that SIMPLE 80MB

How about their other kapacities?

This must be a special format other than
a DOS format.   soooo if we lose it and have
to DOS (re)format we're back to 4k klusters.

Brendon,
Would one of the old parallel port connected handheld scanners work with one
PCMCIA Parallel cards? I have a Trans-Digital card and never thought about
scanning with it. Any ideas?

Mitch,

I found a neat place when I was out there a few weeks ago. It's
down in the San Jose area, and it's called 'Weird Stuff'. They carry
older hardware and software, used stuff, etc. Last time I was there,
they had 5 copies of an older version of WordPerfect (I'm not
sure which version), still in the wrappers, along with a couple
of pocket modems.

Look in a San Jose phone book under 'Computer Dealers - Used'.

I have one that I was thinking of selling. It has a separate custom made
adapter about 6" in length, including the HP connector on one end and
the APPLE connector on the other. This way you do not have to "wreck" the
keyboard by chopping off the original cable and replacing it with another
one that will only work for the HP. I have only used it for a couple of
months so it is in excellent condition. $90/OBO

Are you sure ?... I mean, 80MB of 1K clusters are about 80000 clusters,
which is far over what a 16 bit FAT can manage (65536 minus some).

Well, mine arrived, I opened the box, and plugged it in to the HP, and it
was formatted with 1K clusters. *I* certainly did nothing special!

WHOOPS! Despite my 2 previous messages, I have 2K clusters on my 80MB
card. I must have been real tired when I ran the chkdsk, because it is the
8MB C: drive that has the 1K clusters.

Lesse, now....

Am I correct that the FAT can only have 216 entries, and therefore can
only address 216 (65,536) clusters?

If so, then with 1K clusters one would only be unable to use 64MB of an
80MB card (216 clusters of 1K size).

Similarly, with 2K clusters on a 160MB card, a max of 128MB would be
addressable, although all of the space would be accessible with 4K
clusters.

Or have I mis-remembered something important about FAT size?

Hi,

There is software available for using Japanese on HP?00lx's. If you only
need to read and have access to dictionaries, Jim Breen's JREADER and JDIC
work fine.  However, You'll want at least a 10 MB flash memory card. Send me
email directly if you're interested in doing more.

Cheers,

Bob

I made a mistake also, tried to switch to a Newton 2000. 200lx was better
for everything other than web browsing and taking meeting notes. The moral

Sorry for being a little cryptic ... you must surely know about the problem
with little missing vertical pixel lines along the left side of the screen
which come back sometimes with careful prodding along the edges. Well, too many
damn missing pixel lines made me give up the (hplx) ghost. Yah, could've
repaired it, but took the opportunity (i mean "excuse") to buy a new one. The
old one is now set aside a a reserve ... I can still use it somewhat if i
really have to, just that those irritating lines annoy me no end.

My opinion is that OCR falls into the realm of multi-media graphics for
which th 200LX is not well suited.

We've been fortunate thus far in having capable programmers in our midst
to give us a lease on life in that regard.

Even if someone is willing to take up the mantle of developing a robust
OCR package for DOS/LX (ie not one that garbles 1/2 the text and runs
slower than you can type), given the demands it would make on the processor,
I can only foresee doing this on my desktop anytime soon, or on any other
palmtop (shudder) with sufficient horsepower and developer support.

Fortunately, I don't have to do this kind of stuff, tho if the process
existed to do it well, I'd probably find a use for it (as would all of
you).

Thanks for the help.  I knew ahead of time that shft-ctrl-on
and answering yes would re-format the c:\ drive, and was a
drastic move.  I just copied my c:\ drive over to the a:
drive, removed the card (paranoia?), and did the operation.  I
then compared the files in the new c:\_dat directory.  After
looking at the appmgr.dat file, I noticed part of it was
garbled.  So, when restoring files, I didn't restore that one.
 I use Smmx for all extra exm, com, and exe files, and that
cfg file remained intact, so all I had to retype was the smmx
stuff.

Everyone was correct; when I moved to the 200LX from the 100LX,
I just copied everything over (PEBCAK again).

One other thing I've noticed:  when going to Sysmgr from DOS
the first time, I typed '100', which was my former way of
doing it (autopilot).  I was suprised to see that it worked!

Not taking offense at the term 'novice user', I had a 95LX when
they first came out (about 3 years), a 100LX for about 4 years,
and now a 200LX - I am somewhat of a novice when it comes to
programming and DOS basics, I know just enough to be dangerous
(obviously)!

Thanks for all the help.

Best regards,

I saw a post a while back implying that LXStat can be used as a conditional

if charging is enabled, if so set the contrast to 22, otherwise set it to 16.
I could write something in REXX, but I'm thinking it's going to be easier
than this.

I hope I haven't overlooked anything in the LXStat docs...  :)

Have you checked out ExmBatch (available on SUPER or at my web site).
It puts an EXM wrapper around a dos command.  I include the source
code, so you either use it as is and get it to call your existing DOS
utility, or you can modify the source to do what your DOS utility does
(assuming you wrote the DOS utility or have the source code).  Note
that writing an EXM compliant program is not as simple as just
wrapping some code around an existing DOS program (unless there is no
interaction required with the DOS program).

Just one more advantage of releasing source code to HP200LX utilities ...

The cluster size difference is fairly easy to explain. A maximum of 65,000
or so clusters is all that DOS will support, so as the size of the card
increases, so to must the cluster size if all of the space is to be
addressable.

It should work! <G>

Someone I know tried a handheld scanner, but found it too sensitive to
an unsteady hand. Ie it could do it, but it was too unreliable.

I'd be very interested to see how you go! I think it would be most
excellent if it worked out. But you don't have a PCMCIA Parallel card?

I think you are right: the OCR I've seen on desktops (486 dx100)
was incrediably slow (though I was very impressed that it could do it at
all).

Perhaps one option is to scan it onto the hp200lx, and upload to desktop
for OCR later? Of course, a camera with sufficient built-in memory
would obviate the need for the hp200lxc... <sigh>

I too have one (ordered upon recommendation of one of the members on this
listing).  As a matter of fact I ordered both sizes to see which I liked
better.  The one specified (AHT-64181) actually was the best fit for me.  I
thought the larger size may be better (more storage etc) but it turned out
not to be.

Word of advice to anyone ordering - I tried to order via web with no joy.
Called the company and the s&h price was less than advertised on the web.
Recommend you go via phone.

No you can't wear this cover on a belt loop...it doesn't have one.
That's actually one of the things that I like about this cover; it
hardly adds any size or bulk to the 200LX so it will very easily fit
into a coat pocket, thin briefcase, or even a front pants pocket
(temporarily).

FWIW, my first scanner, a greyscale handheld Dexxa unit, was not TWAIN
compatible but instead had a variety of DOS software bundled with it.  One
of them was a DOS OCR package called "CatchWord" by Logitech.  If memory
serves me correctly, it used mostly text mode...

No idea if it would run on the 200LX or not, but it would be an
interesting experiment if I ever find the disks.  <g>

Also try the screw fix if you have intermittent video

installed batteries to test some software. I immediately
found that a dozen or so vertical rows of pixels had stopped
working. Applying pressure to the area below the screen did
nothing to help.

But one Torx screw (the front left) was very loose. It was
easy to see the top and bottom beginning to separate. After
it was tightened, the video problem was corrected.

Subject:      WOW!!!!!!!!

Hiya gang!!! I just wanted to let everyone know that I just connected to the
mailbox aboard the Mir space station using my 200LX, Yaesu FT50, BayCom
software and a BayPac modem. The antenna I used was a homebuilt model which
is built using 5 coat hangers. I am absolutely thrilled to death!!! I used
Grabber to get a .pcx of the screen from the BayCom software. I was only
able to connect and the just as I was entering a message to another ham
friend who is very amsat literate I lost the signal. I am not upset that I
lost the signal as you normally get between 6-10 good passes a day and next
time I'll know what I'm doing <big grin>. If anyone would like a copy of the
screenshot let me know and I'll email it to you..... it's not much, but I'm
proud of it! The coolest thing is that this contact with a satellite was
made totally wireless via a 200LX!

if you receive more offers to sell you a 200 lx than you can buy, please

Hmmm. Looks like the click TSR wont work with www/lx.
It causes a failure at LCP negtiation. Just thought I'd mention it to =

I tried to order from the UK branch (that covers Europe).  I followed
the instructions on the US web site, which was basically to print out
the order and fax it to the local branch.   Nothing happened so I
called.  No record of any order.  So we talked it through and it turns
out that they don't do all the items listed on the web site, and don't
do the Palmtop Wetsuit.

They could get it, but it would be 8-10 weeks (I guess when next a boat
comes in!)  I did not get on to discuss price in UKL.  It would be no
use ordering from the US as you'd pay $9.99 for the case and $35 for
shipping, + duty + VAT.  I'll have to wait until I'm going to the US and
order ahead.

It looked just the thing, I want a case that will save the LX every time
I jump out of the car and drop it out my jacket pocket onto the tarmac.

Maybe someone in the states could get one for you and mail it to

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

Package contains four executables:
    READ.EXE  for 19200bps
    RX2.EXE   for 38400bps
    RX3.EXE   for 57600bps
    RX6.EXE   for 115200bps

It works on pure DOS and reads images from a digital camera (Camedia
family) connected to COM1.

Usage:
    read.exe -f xx -t yy-T

    -f and -t :  frm xx-th frame to yy-th frame.  If this option is not
used, all the images are transfered.

    -T : Read thumbnail images only.  (This option overrides -f and -t
options).

  Normal images are saved as pic?????.jpg, where ????? is a serial number
starting from 00001. Thumbnail images are saved as thumb???.jpg. Images
are stored in the current directory.  If a file with the same name
exists, READ skips this frame.

Mr Jun-ichiro Ito (itojun) reports that this program work with 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

Tips for its usage on the HP200LX:

o Use READ.EXE (19200bps) or RX2.EXE (38400bps).  RX3.EXE (57600bps)
or RX6.EXE (115200bps) is for a PC more powerfull than the HP200LX.

o This program does not works with TSR which hooks timer interrupts.
  such as Battlog created by Mr.GAOGAO. Please do not load such
  programs.
o This program requires large memory area.  Use with pure DOS,
  preferably without config.sys nor autoexec.bat.  The author  found
  MaxDOS still not sufficient.

o Please disable the light sleep.  If the HP200LX goes into light
  sleep during the data transfer, it surely hangs the system.

Yes, please send me a copy.  However, I think the coolest thing is the
antenna!  Would love to see a pic of that. (save it for your grandkids,
Jeff, or they'll think you're blowing smoke up their backsides when you
try to tell them about it years from now.)

Hi Mike

I=27ve tried using the ADBDUMP program from Andreas and have modified the =
C Code a bit to give results that can be imported into GW.

I wasn=27t quite successfull with the first attemp (I=27m not a good C =
programmer, I don=27t have GW at home and I don=27t have my C Compiler at =
work).=20

As soon as I=27ve got the fields fixed, I=27ll send you the modified EXE =
and source, along with a list of the fields required by the I/O utility.

Best regards

Do yu mean looking at the screen, the front left,

Do you have a headache, need an aspirin?

Wow, even your head wouldn't survive all those

does leather insulated pouches for LXs with a

She should know what she's doing since she owns an LX.

It ain't the mail client - I use MS mailers all over and my mail hasn't come
up on the list with MS-TNEF attachments. I suspect it's part of the mail
server, not the client. As such, you'll need to talk to your postmaster. May
be related to POP3 vs. IMAP on the server. And, yes, MS does have a
non-standard IMAP.

The first OCR I saw on a desktop would have been about 1987 or so.  I
can't remember whether the product or the company was called
"ReadRight" but it ran on an HP Vectra (8MHz 80286 with 640KB RAM,
40MB HD, EGA display), ran under MS-DOS in text mode, and talked to an
attached HP ScanJet (original) so did whole pages.

My recollection is that it was not particularly robust or fast.  It
worked best on clean copies of documents printed with 12-point Courier
at 10 characters per inch, and in this case was a good deal faster
than retyping.  But changing any of those conditions degraded the OCR
quality with a resulting substantial increase in time required for
manual correction after the OCR step.

It will NOT do that...in fact, nothing will short of one of those things
students dream up to protect an egg when they drop it from a roof!
Remember, there is no clasp on this case so it slips around easily.  It is
nice and small, but not much protection. Cusioning effect is almost nil.   I
use the LX so often it is sometimes hard to remember that it is a computer and
delicate!!!   :-))

By the way, one and all....I am not advertising my case, I just wanted to make
one like the nylon Ripoff one that has been used except in leather.   BTW, the
second skin one doesn't quite fit in the nylon one..sorry Al!   I will work at
adjusting my pattern so the second skin will slip inside my pattern.  :-)  The
Ripoff case is pretty snug with a pocket for one (or so) flashdisks.

On the subject, I spend a lot of time making and adjusting the pattern.   That
is part of my business.   (THIS IS NOT AN AD!!!!!)    I do not give the
pattern away...

I have been lurking on the list for a while now, and finally I'm
going to open my mouth and stick my foot in it.

Doesn't the HP Flash memory driver in ROM handle these things? I
understand that Flash is handled quite differently, such as moving
files and erasing by blocks instead of simply overwriting bytes. My
guess is that the Flash driver can handle more than 64K clusters on
the memory card while presenting to DOS no more than 64K clusters.

Bad guess?

Yep. In any case, a DOS 5.0 disk driver should have a FAT, and as DOS 5.0
only supports up to 16 bit FAT, maximum number of sectors will be little
less than 65536.

About the special write handling required by flash memory, the situation is
different in linear flash cards and ATA flash cards.

Linear flash cards are just that. They appear as memory, which needs a
driver to do something with it (possibly addressing it as a logical drive).

ATA flash cards are seen by the BIOS driver just as hard disks. This means
it thinks it can write to a single sector and it does. It's the ATA
controller in the flash card which actually handles read/writes in a much
more complex way.

For example, flash memory suffers from tear. This means that memory cells
will die after a determinate number of write cycles. The controller maps
logical sectors to phisical flash with an special algorithm that spreads
writes equally all along the memory space. Otherwise, certain more often
used sectors like directory or FAT ones would die very soon, while sectors
at the end of the disk would remain almost fresh.

This means that, say, if sector N belongs to the a directory which is
usually modified, though for the BIOS sector N will always be addressed as
N, internally, in the flash memory, that sector will be moving and using
different memory areas on each write. Of course, some sort of translation
table will be required in order to go from 'N' to the actual location of
that sector, and that table will be very often written to, so the problem
arises again... as you see, embedded algorithms in ATA flash cards are
quite complex.

The controller also maps out all dead sectors so they're no longer used and
doesn't even appear to the BIOS driver.

Regards. Nacho.

It is very easy. Grab these files off the Zip install disk and put them

Then add CIC and GUEST to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file and reboot with
everything all hooked up. Works great.

Subject:      STSOrbit, wakes up palmtop?
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit

I mentioned a few days ago (I think?) about my palmtop refusing to turn on one
day, and then I realized it was because the batteries were so low it couldn't
fire up.  So I plugged it into the AC and it turned right on, luckily it had
not lost data.  Perhaps I could replace the backup battery though, wouldn't
hurt.

Anyway, I remember I was running STSOrbit (and had turned off the palmtop with
it running on the map screen) but didn't think anything of it, until I woke up
this morning, opened the palmtop, and I was looking at STSOrbit's screen..  I
didn't turn it on!  So I'm thinking STSOrbit is waking the palmtop up somehow,
anyone else noticed this?

The simulation time seemed to be about 4 hours behind local time, so I'm
assuming that when turned off the simulation time isn't increased and that the
palmtop was off for 4 hours before it woke up, as I was asleep around 7 hours.
My (NiMH) batteries were fresh last night, 2.37 (Low) this morning..  Perhaps
a good test would be start up STSOrbit, go into the tracking map, leave it for
a few hours (turned off, no AC.. :) and check on it periodically..  But I'm
pretty sure that it's happening now, but not absolutely sure it's because of
STSOrbit.

And it's not an alarm, because I (unfortunately) don't receive any alarms
under a DOSShell shell, they all pop up when I reenter SysMgr.

Thanks!  Someone let me know if they've seen this before!

That's interesting... I have never left STSOrbit running and then turned
off my 200LX. I may give it a try and see if I can duplicate it.

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

On my doublespeed LX I can only get 38,400 baud to work reliably,
and even then sometimes I get errors. It might be because of writing
to a slow flash disk.

Subject:      Beast palmtop

Hi Guys and Gals,

Well I now have upgraded my 2mb 200LX with the 32mb Times 2 Tech memory,
double speed, 48mb Simple Technology Compact Flash Card, and 33.6 Simple
Technology PCMCIA modem.

Other extras included the RJ11 Extension in the type III PCMCIA card size,
Software Carousel, and The battery charging software from the makers of
WWWLX.

This has TOTALLY put paid to my idea of getting a laptop.  What would I
ever want to lug one of those around for anyway.  I am tied to a Pentium
with Windows NT all day developing applications, I don't need it when I go
home.

I purchased the internal memory upgrade, speed upgrade and software off
Thomas Rundel of Rundel Datentek and the modem, PCMCIA memory off Bernie
from Shore Systems.  I would recommend both of these companies for any
palmtop purchases.  I beleive both frequent this list.

I think the only thing missing is WWW/LX, but seem to be dragging the chain
on that one.

I use the card as a backup for the palmtop, and am now so much more happy,
knowing that the most valuable part of the data is immediately
retrievable.  The Simple Tchnology card is super FAST.  I have not
officially timed it, but to move the whole 32mb on to it took only around
two minutes.  Now, I only back up what files have the archive attribute,
and the backup is done in seconds.  I can and do do it every day.  MUST
NOT forget to take the card out though :-)

If you have enough memory available, I HIGHLY recommend Software Carousel
for the Palmtop.  I have 6 Full size Work areas set up, taking 3mb.  These
are all the applications I run every day.  I could even re-map a lot of the
keys in one session to make a DOS application use the menu key, and moved
all keys neccessary for email reading to the top right hand corner for one
handed email reading while on the Lundon Underground every morning and
afternoon.  Another 1.5 hours time per day regained for productive use.

See ya round

Hello all


I have a problem with the palmtop hanging.  It does it on average 2 times a
day.

it is a 200LX 2mb Plus 32mb, and I use a Simple Technology PCMCIA 33.6
Communicator modem.

I am wondering what could be causing this, SC, or the modem, or something
else?  It used to hang sometimes when I used an external modem as well.

I have to reboot with the ctrl+Shift+On keystrokes.  I would love to know
what this is.

TIA

Subject:      Heat while charging, and battery life

Hello all.

I notice that my palmtop gets VERY hot while recharging.  I have the 1350mA
hatteries which Mack from T2T sells.  I have not charged any other type of
battery before, so cannot compare them to other batteries.  The unit gets
so hot that it is nearly too hot to touch.  I think I will go back to
Alcalines, as the heat at that level can not be good, and chargers are a
lot cheaper than the palmtop.

Also, I no not get very long out of my batteries, I would guess 3.3 hours.
It has the 32mb internal ram, and the speed upgrade.  It means I am
charging every two days.  A pair of alcalines used to last me about two
weeks.

Thank you for any tips or help on this subject.

Hi All,

Received this news from ZDNet Anchornews, DOS is alive and kicking.

__________Berst Alert____________________
  BACK FROM THE DEAD? NEW LIFE FOR DOS

http://www.anchordesk.com/a/adt0720ba/2324

     I've seen the future, and it's DR-DOS. Call me crazy.
     Call me worse. But Caldera has sold 3,000,000 copies
     of this OS of yesteryear and repositioned it into
     a market that's 10-times larger than the PC market.
     Come to the site and discover where, why and how
     DR-DOS is taking over.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Starting to see why this market could explode in the
next five years? Consider what Caldera has added to DR-DOS.

                   A graphical Web browser that can run on a 40
                   Mhz 386 with just 4 MB of RAM
                   ODI-based networking
                   Multitasking
                   TCP/IP, HTTP and FTP
                   POP3 and SMTP
                   Year 2000 support
                   Power management
                   Compression (can turn a 4 MB Flash ROM into
                   8 MB)

              This is not your father's disk operating system!
              Features like these explain why DR-DOS has real
              benefits to hardware and software makers who want to
              attack the "embedded systems" market. It's a
              tremendously compact way to access the Internet,
              especially when compared with Windows CE. And it's
              a robust, tested system with hundreds of proven tools
              and thousands of experienced programmers.

              With this in mind, here are four areas where DR-DOS
              has a chance. In order of likelihood:

Refurbished computers.
              Older 386 and 286
              computers still use DOS. Caldera's DR-DOS can give
              them a browser so they can be used to surf the Net.
              Bonus: Some great games still run on DOS. This is an
              obvious, easy market for DR-DOS, but not one that has
              growth potential.

Embedded systems.
              DR-DOS has lots of advantages
              here, but it also has dozens of competitors. Company
              executives claim they will soon announce "big-name"
              partnerships for set-top boxes, smart phones and
              airline entertainment. We'll see.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Cheers to DOS !

These cards come with no docs or software. They are recognised by
win95 and work correctly. They have one type III slot in the rear of
the computer (part of the isa card). There is no documentation on
the board regarding io address or irq, I guess I was lucky it did
conflict with anything. It seems to have hard wired jumpers in one
place. They use a Vadim chip that win95 refers to as PCIC
controller. The only identifying mark is the copyright:
(c) 1996 SCM GmbH
    SMMCDR31
They also have sockets for a remote (floppy drive bay) mounted socket
but that doesn't come with them. Haven't tried a memory card or
whatnot, they should work at least in win95. I bought mine for use
with a wireless pcmcia card.

David,

I have the very same batteries and speed-up crystal, tho I have only 6mb to
your 32mb. In fact my batteries are charging as I write this and while I
would characterize them as warm, it hardly seems "nearly too hot to touch".
You may want to email your concern to Mack about this.

Others have also noted a lot of heat during the recharge of NiMH batteries
and while I've had mine for several months, I've not noticed any other
problems as a result, and I charge in the LX regularly using ABC/LX as
you do.

If you're measuring the usage time (of 3.3 hours) using ABC/LX, that does
seem a bit short. The time is dependent on how much you actually use the
LX. If for example, you hardly opened it in days, the time counter would
not increment, but the speed crystal would continue to draw power nonetheless
resulting in a lower usage time before having to recharge.

I get somewhat better times on the average, but when I was using the LX
during classes to compile and take notes, it was operating continuously
and my times went up to 5-6 hours.

The increased power needs of the 2x crystal is its major shortcoming, and
the sole reason I switched to NiMH.

You're on a roll David <g>.

I stopped using SC because of problems, tho I never really traced them to
SC. They stopped after I discontinued SC. With all the new variables
on your system, I'd suggest that that'd be a good place to start.

Are you using the cic100 modem driver? Your choice there, as with any TSRs
you load could also be a cause. I believe the combination of cic100 and
SC was one of the killer combos.

It would interest me how to subscribe to the CNN email news service. Could

David (and List),
Does anyone know where I can find one of the older handheld scanners that
connect to the parallel port? I have a Trans-Digital card and might be able to
get something going, especially with all of you to help. <g>

Thanks,
Dennis

I've been asked this question by several people so I'll post my answer
here on the list. Go to www.cnn.com then follow the links and sign-up for
the daily news. I get the ascii text version since I read it here on my
200LX, but it also available in HTML format.

Greetings everyone,
I was wondering if anyone had any experiences with wireless internet access on the HP 200LX.  I am thinking about connecting a PCMCIA wireless modem (Motorola PM 100c).  Is it possible to connect to a POP server and retrieve mail or to do some web browsing on the 200 LX?  If anyone has tried this or knows if it is possible, please let me know.
Thanks,

I have a similar setup, only without the modem. If I exit SysManager
with MaxiDos, stay in dos, and an appointment alarm attempts to go off,
it will lock up my system requiring a ctrl+Shift+On re-boot.

I read somewhere about a program to alleviate that, and thought that it
was working before speed-up, but isn't now.

Also, my telephone tone dialer no longer works after speed up. Has
anyone solved that?

>>I'm in the area for a few days. Where are all the Fry's Electronics
around here? Are there any other "don't miss" places to check out for
computer stuff?<<

Here are a few.

 360 Portage Ave, Palo Alto (Peninnsula) 650-496-6000
 600 E Hamilton Ave, Campbell (South Bay) 408-364-3700
 550 E Brokaw Rd. San Jose (South Bay) 408-487-1000
 1177 Kern Ave, Sunnyvale (South Bay) 408-733-1770

(Sunnyvale might be a good one because there are many other
smaller places in the area worth checking out.)

 440 Mission Ct. #100, Fremont (East Bay) 510-770-3797

 (This is the one I go to.)

You can get maps to the stores on the web where I found the
addresses: www.smartpages.com. Do the name search for frys
and frys electronic.

Just a thought: beware that things like out of area checks
are a big hassle for them as well as writing ANY check over
$200 on a Sunday. I once waited at the register for 25
minutes on a Sunday because they had to "verify funds" for
my $230 check. (I know; I can't believe I didn't walk out.)

Though you will probably be window shopping for the most
part.

How long will you be here? I'd love to by you breakfast or
lunch. Enjoy your stay!

I don't recall if the DOS product is mentioned

Thanks for the kind offer of help.

I can't disable cursor tracking at all using the Dispctl Dos utility
written for the 200LX in D:\bin. I close all applications, go to Dos and
in the D:\bin drectory I write the command Dispctl -C and press enter
but the cursor still flashes on and off?? As a test, I entered Dispctl -
K to try disabling the cursor movement key as in page 25-9 of the 200LX
manual. That worked in Dos in that you can press the "menu" key and
scroll up and down with the arrow keys but it didn't work in Info Select
at all.

I'm wondering if I've got something in my Autoexec.bat file that's
overriding disabling cursor tracking but I can't see anything obvious.
Or perhaps something else I'm not aware of is overriding the disable
cursor tracking command?

As an avid user of IS I'd really like to pick up on this valuable tip
but one concern - surely if you make the cursor dissapear, it'll be
difficult to edit windows all of a sudden as you need the cursor visible
to do that.

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious but I've spent hours trying this
without success!

Best regards

Check the actual voltage from the external power supply that you are
using to power the 200LX.  I see the same thing with cheap, poorly
regulated supplies which often have a substantially higher output
voltage than claimed.  These will cause considerable heating in the Hp.

Hopefully this is an easy question...

Was the PRINT command one of those missing from the HP distribution of

palmtop use.  Just got my Citizen printer all set up and ready to go.
I type PRINT /D:COM1, and I get a "Bad Command or file name" error

Let me know if you need PRINT from DOS 5.0.

Other alternative is to use COPY, but I understand there's some problems
with the XON/XOFF protocols using the serial port.

I also have a collection of utilities from Stefan Peichl (of LXPIC fame),
one of which is called print.com and does a copy to the serial port with the
correct protocol handling. I couldn't find it on the SUPER site.. I may have
gotten it from his web/ftp site long ago (never used it myself). If you'd
like a copy, get it from http://home.t-online.de/home/stefan.peichl/

I disagree.  Am I the only one who questions some of the stuff

   The current issue of "Sky and Telescope" (August 1998) has a article
reviewing twelve satellite tracking programs.  Five of wich are for DOS.
It mentions three other porgrams and the August 1996 issue with further
software reviews.  They also mention some web resources and the like.

PS Some day, I'd like to figure out some of the "high-tech wizardry"
involved in the packeteering etc. you all do.  I don't quite know what it
is, but anything involving coat hangers as antennae has my interest peaked
(signal pun - intended).

PPS - WAY off topic but, do you or any other of the Hams on the list know
the TOTAL history behind the military phrase "Got you 5 x 5!"? I know it had
to do with some commo term where signal strength was read on a scale of 1-5,
but what's the other 5 in "five by five"?   TIA .

Hiya gang!!! I just wanted to let everyone know that I just connected to the
mailbox aboard the Mir space station using my 200LX, Yaesu FT50, BayCom
software and a BayPac modem. The antenna I used was a homebuilt model which
is built using 5 coat hangers. I am absolutely thrilled to death!!! I used
Grabber to get a .pcx of the screen from the BayCom software. I was only
able to connect and the just as I was entering a message to another ham
friend who is very amsat literate I lost the signal. I am not upset that I
lost the signal as you normally get between 6-10 good passes a day and next
time I'll know what I'm doing <big grin>. If anyone would like a copy of the
screenshot let me know and I'll email it to you..... it's not much, but I'm
proud of it! The coolest thing is that this contact with a satellite was
made totally wireless via a 200LX!

Subject:      IS for DOS

What you have to do is call Micro Logic (201-342-6518) and order InfoSelect for DOS. If you want synchronize with desktop information you'll have to have Info Select for Windows ver 1.0 (ver 1.0 uses the same data format as IS for DOS). New versions require you to use a newer format and I don't think the newer version will write in the older formats (but I could be wrong). One of the problems you'll have to deal with in IS for DOS compared with the later Windows version is that the you'll have to get a memory driver if you want stacks larger than 100K. Also I recommend some sort of task switcher like Software Carousel to work with IS. That way you can get the HP to automatically switch back from IS to the appointment book for alarms.

What Micro Logic will charge you for this I have no idea. I think they charged me $40 for the DOS version but I was a first time user. I suspect they'll charge you the same because they probably don't have a policy for users who want to "downgrade."

Actually, in voice transmissions, there are two numbers: 1st readability
(1-5), 2nd signal strength (1-9). In CW tranmissions (morse) there is a
third one: Tone Quality (1-5). I guess that the military CW-ops omit the
signal strength (you need a meter for that and light to see it) and just
give the two other numbers, which are the most important anyway. 5x5 would
then mean that it is the best possible signal.

Hmm, it's been awhile since I thought about it, but I think it went
signal strength, readability, and tonal quality (for CW).  A perfect
CW signal was referred to as 559.  For voice, the tonal quality isn't
used.

Au contraire... perfect CW signal is 599.  The system is called RST:
Readability (1-5) Signal Strength (1-9) and Tone (1-9).  As you say,
tone doesn't apply to voice.  Perfect voice report is 59.  Someone
with a 5x5 report would have only S5 signal strength.

Heh heh, can anyone tell I haven't touched a key since 1979? :-)

Of course, you're right.  As soon as I saw this the CW abbreviation

Here's YASQ (Yet Another Stupid Question) from me.. :)

Is there a way to reduce the time delay imposed when charging is

totally disables the message or greatly shortens the delay time.

Surely I'm not the only one that finds it annoying sometimes..  Especially
when rebooting on AC.

Well, I've wondered this too, but... heck, I didn't even know that you
could press ESC to clear that message instantly.  Thanks for the tip!

Dear S Todd,

Thanks for your response and David Hart's...........I've sussed it!

The problem was that since the beginning, I've run Info Select as an
icon from the system manager topcard screen. It seems that changes made
to the cursor tracking in Dos won't "stick" when you open Info Select
from the System manager. However, opening it from the Dos prompt (Ctrl +
123) made the cursor tracking disable stick.

But I found that to run IS from the Dos prompt, I first had to allocate
more memory to Dos from setup (I used 270K) as the default Dos memory
allocation is not enough to run IS.

Of course, running IS from Dos after terminating all applications
devotes maximum memory to it but you can't open the built - in 200Lx
applications that way and I like to use IS and the appointment book
together.

Finally, I came across 2 IS help files ythet David Hart sent me last May
and today I copied David's approach of creating a .bat batch file to
disable cursor tracking and load IS from the System manager Dos prompt.

Thx again publicising what is one of the most excellent tips I've come
across for IS and thanks to David Hart for his help also.

Up until now, I've been struggling to read the text in lowest
magnification. Zooming has been frustrating as although now readable,
the constant scrolling around the screen is a real pain especially if
you're trying to do it with one hand on the phone trying to recall info.

Best Regards

Peter

The military only uses the  signal strength and readability for voice, the
scale is from 1 to 5 on both. Basically if the signal is load and clear it
is 5x5.

Hallo,

each time I startup, certain 200LX applications are loaded automatically. Actually I don't
want them to. It just wastes time if I try something out. Is there any place where I can
specify what applications to load at startup?

I am using Software Carousel but I guess my problem is not related to that.

Thanks for listening

I use IS 3.0g and can export to IS for DOS.  It sometimes takes several trys
and if you can slow down the cpu, it works better.

>What you have to do is call Micro Logic (201-342-6518) and order InfoSelect

have Info Select for Windows ver 1.0 (ver 1.0 uses the same data format as
IS for DOS). New versions require you to use a newer format and I don't

wrong). One of the problems you'll have to deal with in IS

You were was asking how to get printer initialization
strings into text files using MEMO.  The trick of holding
down alt-menu when pressing numbers on the keypad
doesn't work for the ESC character because the editor
recognizes it as a command.

Two ways to get the ESC:
  The TED editor from PCMag accepts ESC  ( v7n19.zip on Simtel )
  Put some trash in the file and use a command line utility
    to globally replace all occurances of the trash, eg:
              texrep   qxqx:\27   myfile
texrep12.zip is on Simtel

>>What's with this Fry's.  How are they different than COMP
USA or Computer Discount Works (CDW), J&R, etc?

Good question, Al. First, I think of both J&R and CDW as mail
order houses because that is how I've used them. Fry's isn't
mail order. I also think of J&R and CDW as having reasonable
prices and reasonably competent people who are willing and
able to answer your questions. In my experience, Fry's has
neither.

So, you ask, what's the draw? Well, picture one of those
SuperKmart. Within these walls you will find nearly
everything. Groceries and auto parts; womens wear and fishing
tackle; stationery and toilet paper. You get the idea.

That is what Fry's does. In fry's you can find audio
equipment for home, car and 'mobile use.' Whether you want a
$15 headset and 'walkman-style' cassette player or an $800
Sony DAT recorder, it's there.

There are major and small appliances from TVs to
refrigerators to toaster ovens (one or two). There are vcrs
and camcorders of every kind.

There are components galore. As an electronics hobbyist I
know I'll find just what I need. (and the people who work in
this area actually know what they are doing. With components
are the test equipment from $15 analog multimeters to the
latest digital LCD oscilloscopes. It just gives me chills
walking down that aisle. Or maybe it's the static
electricity (g).

And computers. At any given time there are 40 desktop and
portable computers on display. They sell motherboards, memory
and CPUs, and all the components to repair or rebuild your
computer.

And the palmtops. Actually most of what they display are the
inexpensive PDAs from Casio and others. But there are a good
selection of palmtops, HPCs and recently PPCs. The HP 200LX
is represented as is the Psion. They stock the popular
accessories for all of them.

They have 2 aisles dedicated to telephones and accessories,
including a good selection of wireless phone batteries.

Throw in magazines of all kinds (except underground), books
on tape, snack foods, and cabinets of cold sodas and juices,
and you have Fry's.

I really enjoy finding an excuse to go there about once a
month, just to look around.

Back in the 70's and early 80's I loved to go to a block long
store in Pasadena called Dog Radio. There I found some of the
same sort of 'complete' shopping experience, minus the
appliances and snack food. Perhaps this is why I like Fry's.

But believe me when I say that the people at Dow (and Kmart)
are much more helpful and courteous. (g).

Thank you to Al, Longden, Frans and everyone else who responded to my
palmtop crashes question, and the Battery heating question.

It appears that The palmtop crashing is due to the fact that I loaded the
CIC driver in one of the Software Carousel Work Areas, and not in the
Autoexec.bat.

The overheating thing is still a problem.  It doesnt always get so hot as
it did just before posting the question.  I let it go for a day, and
charged in the palmtop last night with the unit open, and standing on its
end.  This allowed a good air circulation around the HP, and appeared to do
the trick.  In the morning, it was only marginally warm.

I will see how this goes for a while.

Thank You.

Performance???
I don't think.
the real performance is a 69Kb zip file.
I found it when I was cleaning my old disk.
I never try to use it (jute one test with the sample file)
I don't need an ocr in my LX.

You've described Fry's here in LA perfectly, Conrad.

>>What's with this Fry's.  How are they different than COMP
USA or Computer Discount Works (CDW), J&R, etc?

Good question, Al. First, I think of both J&R and CDW as mail
order houses because that is how I've used them. Fry's isn't
mail order. I also think of J&R and CDW as having reasonable
prices and reasonably competent people who are willing and
able to answer your questions. In my experience, Fry's has
neither.

So, you ask, what's the draw? Well, picture one of those
SuperKmart. Within these walls you will find nearly
everything. Groceries and auto parts; womens wear and fishing
tackle; stationery and toilet paper. You get the idea.

That is what Fry's does. In fry's you can find audio
equipment for home, car and 'mobile use.' Whether you want a
$15 headset and 'walkman-style' cassette player or an $800
Sony DAT recorder, it's there.

There are major and small appliances from TVs to
refrigerators to toaster ovens (one or two). There are vcrs
and camcorders of every kind.

There are components galore. As an electronics hobbyist I
know I'll find just what I need. (and the people who work in
this area actually know what they are doing. With components
are the test equipment from $15 analog multimeters to the
latest digital LCD oscilloscopes. It just gives me chills
walking down that aisle. Or maybe it's the static
electricity (g).

And computers. At any given time there are 40 desktop and
portable computers on display. They sell motherboards, memory
and CPUs, and all the components to repair or rebuild your
computer.

And the palmtops. Actually most of what they display are the
inexpensive PDAs from Casio and others. But there are a good
selection of palmtops, HPCs and recently PPCs. The HP 200LX
is represented as is the Psion. They stock the popular
accessories for all of them.

They have 2 aisles dedicated to telephones and accessories,
including a good selection of wireless phone batteries.

Throw in magazines of all kinds (except underground), books
on tape, snack foods, and cabinets of cold sodas and juices,
and you have Fry's.

I really enjoy finding an excuse to go there about once a
month, just to look around.

Back in the 70's and early 80's I loved to go to a block long
store in Pasadena called Dog Radio. There I found some of the
same sort of 'complete' shopping experience, minus the
appliances and snack food. Perhaps this is why I like Fry's.

But believe me when I say that the people at Dow (and Kmart)
are much more helpful and courteous. (g).

Hi, Jorgen:

Avi Meshar and I tried two 160MB cards from Simple last Thu in his 2x LX and
a 40MB card from Sandisk, and both had exactly the same 2-3 second latency.
Avi ran the test.

I'd be VERY surprised if the 220MB Sandisk didn't have the same problem, as
the CIS on the 200LX takes a while to read all of the clusters, recognize
the size and address the memory. A 220MB will not be any different, and may
even take a while longer.

Hi all

I have a DB that I put together when I tfered my contacts into my LX. It is
effectively in the same format from my previous infobase. Its now over 1200
records and I wish to tidy it.

I now want to transfer the details into a new DB/PDB to take advantage of
the 200LX DB features.

Does anyone have an easy method to transfer from say a DB with 10 fields to
another with 35 fields in a different order..ie field 1 (existing) goes to
field 3 (new) and field 6 (existing) goes to field 2 (new) etc.

I've tried a macro to cut and paste.. It will work but I have some blank
fields throughout my existing DB.. copy/paste from DB to Phonebook copies
the last copy with data if it encounters a blank..any way around this..??

Any ideas?

Thx

Russell

Look in the SUPER site. There's several icon editor/browser type programs,
some with a small icon collection. I think there's more at the eddie and
monash ftp sites also. Don't know if there's anything specific for IS tho.

SysMgr (actually AppMgr) assumes the icon is in the same directory as for
the executable you enter in "Path" and has the same filename, but with the
.icn extension. The up/down arrow lets you alternatively choose one of the
other pre-defined icons.

There's also a trick that would allow you to have the icon in a different
directory than the executable. You'd just enter a bogus executable name in
"Path", but with the directory path of the icon. Then jump to "Icon" to
pickup the correct icon, and finally jump back to "Path" and put in the real
pathname/filename of the executable. The first icon you chose "sticks" even
tho you change the executable name. The "Avi" maneuver <g>.

I looked at the Sparq the other day and the box said it needed
a 386 or better.

The zip drive requires a 286 or better but will run fine on the
200lx with the correct parallel card.  The 200lx has a an 80186
which is essentialy the same as a 286 from the program's point of
view, except there's no protected mode.

Thanks, your suggestion worked like a charm!  This is better than having to
load another word processor or using 123 as one.  I made a template with Memo
and saved it as an ASCII file (I haven't tested to see if that's absolutely
necessary).  I want to write notes on my HP200LX when I round on patients in
the hospital.  With Memo I can put in a Date and Time field to automatically
stamp my note when I print it.  Using the escape codes (Laser Jet Unlimited by
Nace and Gardner is invaluable) I can format my note with any of the fonts on
the laser jet, making for impressive output.  I've since saved the escape
character as a file (ESC.TXT) which I can import into other files in the
future if needed. The next step is to make a macro to update my notes each
day, and possibly tie it in to my database I sue to keep track of patient
visits for billing : )

This doesn't always work, but try it anyway:

Open up an Explorer window after you have inserted the card. Now click
down in the tray and deactivate the card. Now reinsert the card with
that same Explorer window open. This usually makes the flash card's
drive letter pop into view for me. It should show up right after the
computer beeps to acknowledge the card.

I ordered a keyboard from them last week and got it several days later.
Have to say, it works like a charm and has helped relieve WinCE envy ...

Subject:      HP200LX with ISA cards?

        Hello all LXers,

    I don't have a HPLX as of now, but familiar with it. I also
    has an IBM PC/XT 5160, so I can appreciate your software efforts.

    I run across an ad in an older BYTE issue, by Contec USA. at
    <www.contecusa.com> that shows a PCMCIA to ISA BUS expansion
    kit. I wonder if we could use it. That would put an end to
    "SCSI available?" "real hard drives, anyone" questions.

    I can imagine a HP200LX unit with 2x, 128MB and RAID controller,
    HPGL card, Data acquisition, ISDN, 3 LPT, 4 RS232 ports, Ether-
    net, Tokenring, joystick and soundcard in bus expansion chassis.

    It could also allow use of the old IBM XT/370 kit (3 ISA cards)
    so HPLX would have 3 OSs: MS-DOS 5.0, Minix, OS/370. Cool.

    Reality: 80186 CPU a problem? 150mA from PCMCIA socket too low?
             Hornet proprietary scheme? What are the chances?

    I have an old IBM 5161 expansion chassis at home and indeed the
    general idea of bus expansion does work. It would also be perfect
    for prototypeing, as the host PC/XT can boot; no matter if the
    cards in the chassis short circuit, keep pulling a line, etc.

    I was happy to see posts on available DOS freeware for Olympus,
    Casio, etc. digital camera downloads. Is there such a thing for
    the Apple Quicktake's? I have access to an old Apple Qtake 100
    camera, a 1994 vintage; but even that requires a Win3.1/386 PC.
    Also uses serial port (up to 57,6kbps) but Olympus/Casio SW does
    not seem to work. This oldie can take only 8 pics at 640x480,
    and has little settings control; but picture quality is great.
    It is also the most rugged camera, with binocular-style shape
    and hard plastic. Safe to wear when biking, hiking.

                Thanks for the attention,
                            Sincerely Yours:
                                              Tamas Feher.

Have you tried Readmail, a DOS based message reader =

available on S.U.P.E.R. This automaticaly sorts the digest
by subject, and allows you to view individual messages
in thread order. It runs on the palmtop and on the desktop
where colours enhance the display especially as it highlights
quoted sections (preceeded with a >) in a different colour
from the message text. I think the filename on S.U.P.E.R. is
rm50b76.zip.

Subject:      Batteries Dead <> total data loss!?

Hello all

I just an hour ago lost the memory in the 2mb drive.  I let the
batteries run down too far, and had a backup set that was (I later found
out) DEAD.  I put them in, and the palmtop would still not work. I had to
sit on the train for the rest of the journey trying to think how much work
I had lost since the last backup.

When back home and on the AC power supply, I reset the plamtop with Ctrl+
Shift+On to get it to turn on.  After getting through the initial boot up
questions, and transferring the files from the Flash RAM card to the 2mb
drive with the garbled screen (no speed driver), I rebooted again.

To my complete surprise, the 32mb drive was completely in tact.  Not one
piece of data was lost!

This was very convenient, as I only keep the neccessary boot files, and a
small backup zip file (for on the run backup) on there.

I have only 5 days ago taken delivery of a Flash ram card for backups, so
that was amazingly good timing.

Well anyway, I have heard of the 32mb surviving a battery outage before,
and I have mine to add to it.  Thanks for a great product Mack (Times 2
Tech)!

Remember those backups!  :-)

If your office PC is using a CardBus (32-bit) slot, you probably need =
different drivers for it and the PC Card. If not, sounds like a bad card =

Yep.... if there's one thing the 32MB drive is, it's robust.  It can

Although, Mack _does_ recommend that you reinitialize the 32MB drive if
your other drive gets erased... just to be on the safe side, I assume.  It
is nice not to have it forcibly erased though!

I'm interested in this.  I once had such a printer for my HP calculator,
which I later sold kit-and-caboodle.  Seems like I heard that it would
work with the 95LX, when it first came out.

It does work, though I'm not sure outside of grocery lists how
useful it is.  I have one in perfect working order I'll swap
for a PCMCIA modem card that works reliably in the LXs.  I'll
even throw in a charger.  The print utility is something like
LXPrint, and I think it may be on the S.U.P.E.R. site, but I
think I can dig it up if anyone is interested.

Huntsville, AL, eh?  Did you know Bear Bryant's teams NEVER
beat U. of  Texas?  Not even while at A&M.  Hook 'em.

Why not simply have two sets, charge them externally, alternately.  Seems
that the heat can't be good for the chips in the long run...

I noticed that HP earnings will be lower than expected.

I am not really surprised. They used to have _unique_ products with no
real competition; their R&D were second to none: anyone remember their
calculators with 49 steps as far as I remember in the mid-70ies? Today
they mix in crowded areas trying to live on their name: digital photo,
scanners, Windows CE, standard computers and printers (though admittedly
_they_ made the standard).

I'm all for cost-cutting, but what made them special and big was the
unique products, i.e. their R&D. The only HP-news I recall is the new
Java but that isn't going to sell the hardware.

HP: how about a DOS computer with a HP-48 (extended with business stuff)
like calculator and a DOS web-browser+email inside? Or if graphics
windows are that important, a Windows with a prompt (X-windows like?).

Convenience.

I'm doing the best I can to not let the care and feeding of my LX take
over my life. Swapping batteries and the worries of breaking the battery
door didn't seem like a productive use of my time or energy.

You may be right about the heat not being good for the chips. But my wife
will testify that I'm pretty rough on my toys. If they break under usage
that I consider normal (for me), then I'd rather not be using it.

That my LX has lasted this long with all my abuse makes it second only to
my wife in resilence <g>.

For now, I can afford the extra cost of high-cap NiMhs and the ABC/LX
software more than petty intrusions on my time.

Yes. Export them to plain vanilla ASCII format and send them to me off
the list. (I don't use any of the PIM stuff so I don't know the format).
As this should be of general interest, I will then publish on the list
an easy-to-convert AWK (or Perl if you prefer) script which will reorder
the database. This you just import as a new database.

AWK and Perl are made for this kind of work: you specify how to split
the lines into fields and then print out the fields in a different
order. You can add new fields (either empty or calculated from existing
fields), convert dates to year-2000 format etc at the same time.

Still, that cannot be good for the circuits in the computer.
I am beginning to believe that some of the strange problems described in
this list are due to defects caused by overheating.

I cannot register any heat at all from my batteries while charging.
I use 500mAh NiCd and trickle charge them overnight.

What is the experience of the list with, say, 7-800mAh NiCd's.

Let's face it. You are charging with 100mA, right?
This means that IF the batteries convert the ENTIRE current into heat (so
not building up a charge at all) that about 300mW (3 Volts * 100 mA) of
heat is generated. 300 milliWatt isn't going to produce a hell of a heat.

On the other hand, there is also a charging circuit. If you feed the LX
with 12Volts, this means that the charging circuit must get rid of 9 volts,
by 100ma, which produces 900mW of heat (no matter whether the batteries are
building up charge or not). If your AC adapter produces 15 volts (like most
do), then 1.2 Watt of heat is generated. Apart from the charge current, the
LX uses current by itself. So, with a too high input voltage, it is easy to
produce 2 Watts of heat. And this is too much!

So, I advice to measure two things: 1) the adaptor voltage. It has been
described in this mailing list that 9 volts is enough to feed the HP. So
reduce the input voltage if it is more. 2). check how much current the
palmtop draws while charging the batteries. If the battery is charged like
intended with maximally 100mA, the palmtop shouldn't consume more than
150mA. If it is more, it indicates that something is defective, possibly
the charging circuit is feeding the batteries with much more current.

Please let me know,
Frans

Morning all.........

Can I make an argument for NiMH over NiCads
in saying that NiCads have a memory problem
whereas NiMH don't.  Since LXers recharge at
random daily, the mem problems accumulates.
The cost diff tween the two types are nominal.

Hi guys;

Perchance I don't understand the problem.
Wouldn't it be easier and less effort to
just modify the DB?  That would put the
fields anywhere you want them.  You can
rename, extend, or shorten w/o loosing

Like I say, maybe I don't understand the

Maybe if I had a great wife like yours I would
think like you (sigh!) but I think its more
inconvenient to go through the recharging process
daily than to switch batts. Like feeding the cat.
And its known that heat is bad for the chips in
the long run. Its stiffling in there without
ventilation.  Like smoking for 40 years.  A little
more heat in the chips is like a little more gunk
down in your lungs everyday. You know about BLACK
LUNG, don't you?  I wouldn't wish that on my LX.

The original system was called RST which means "Readability Strength and
Tone".  The "Tone" part refers to the quality of the tone of the Morse Code
signal.

I suppose that since Military Radio traffice does not have a lot of CW, they
don't need to report the "Tone".

The above comment would be true were the charging circuit operating
with a linear voltage regulator. The battery charging circuit in a
200LX uses a Maxim IC intended for such a purpose. This IC is based on
a switching regulator that is about 80% efficient. Thus a charging
current through the battery of, to pick a number, 100mA, will draw in
the range of 125mA AVERAGE. It may have higher peaks when it is
"switching", but when it is not switching the current is ZERO; hence
the value is usually stated as an average.


My advice, for what it is worth, is get it fixed, soon, by a capable
technician. This level of heat dissipation is *not* normal. To state
the obvious, something is wrong. <g> At best, you may lose the ability
to recharge batteries within the LX. At worst, the LX may cease to
function.

I just plug it in at night when I hit the sack. Since ABC/LX manages the
charging process, there's not a lot I need to do except maybe feed the
cat<g>.

At work, the LX sits on my desk next to my desktop PC and acts as my primary
PIM. I have it plugged in there too just so it stays on all day (and gets
charged if needed in the process).

I've been doing this for over a year and things are OK so far.

I'll probably get a new one if that happens. I try to take reasonably good
care of it, I mean I don't use it for batting practice or hammering nails.
But I got it to help organize my time, not take it up with maintenance
issues.

There are collectors and aficionados amongs us who like to buff chrome
bumpers and clean the filigree with a toothbrush, but I'm not one of them.
I've got data to process!

I agree. The original poster said his LX "gets so hot that it is nearly too
hot to touch" and that has not been my experience with the same kind of
batteries (tho I don't know what kind of charger he has).

Despite my recent postings about my preference for low-maintenance, problems
of this sort should be dealt with ASAP, especially if the warranty period
may be still in effect (I believe his was a recent upgrade).

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

This is a question to a focused group:

A) You use POST/LX as your mailer
B) You use a 28.8 or 33.6 PCMCIA modem

I always run POST/LX in mild debug mode just so I can see what's going
on. To do this, you start it like this:

www -1 -d !post.exe

In debug when messages are downloading, you see a "+" for a successful
packet send/receive and a "-" for a failure or retry. I switched my
DTE speed to 38400 to compensate for the speed of the new modem and I
run a double-speed machine. When downloading large email attachments,
I am seeing this:

++-++-++-++-++-

instead of the desirable:

+++++++++++++++

For every two good packets, I get a retry and these retries show up as
stalls in the file download as the byte count ticks off. I would have
thought the double-speed unit could handle this extra throughput. Can
anyone duplicate this behavior? Is there something that can be done to
improve the throughput: compression on or off, MRU/MTU adjustment, DTE
speed adjustment?

Thanks very much!

Speaking of which, I've looked at all the army surplus stores around town, and
none have had a metal M15 clip case described by someone on this list, would
that person might mailing me, I'd *LOVE* to have something like this..  I want
to bring my LX to work (Laser printer production) but I don't want to be
afraid for it.

Thanks! :)

Hi
A comment, about getting it fixed.......

"The battery charging circuit in a 200LX uses a
Maxim IC intended for such a purpose. This IC
is based on a switching regulator that is about
80% efficient."

Implies that this is a general engineering defect
in all LXs?  Or is is only a particular defect,
a lemon oddity?   or just broke?

Better to be than to have,

I use a pair of the Thaddeus NiMh. The LX gets
slightly warm. The highest voltage I have seen with LXPRO
is 2.88 so I may not be fully charging them.

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Anyone know of a database app that's available cheaply (ie free or under
$20) that's SMALL (like under 100k) that reads dBase formatted files (.dbf)
and queries them with some of the basic functionality of the built-in
(search for a text string, sort by alternate fields, displaying a subset).

This would permit the LX to query databases whose record counts exceed the
capability of the built-in app. And since the .dbf format is widely used,
convertors already exist to help build the databases from various sources.

I found a freeware viewer called DBV123.ZIP on Simtel that's 57k and
does searches, but doesn't sort or do subsets.

A PAL app would be ideal. In fact, if DBV (on the SUPER site) worked on .dbf
files it would be close. Suggestions welcomed. Seems like this has been
discussed before and many people mentioned running dBase or PCFile.

I already have dBase-3, but it seems like overkill for simple db viewing
and queries. PCFile is also overkill, and $80 to boot.

Sure you can. However according to most major manufacturers what people

differant.

Not nessaceryily. I've got a cordless phone that uses nicads. I charge that
whenever. Never had a problem with memory egffect or voltage depression.
The batteries only last about 6 months though so it does shorten the life.
Never tried it with the LX and Nicads though. But I have heard of people
trickel charging nicads randomly as you decribe. Never heard of any probleems
with memory effect.

> The cost diff tween the two types are nominal.

NiMH 1300mAH 10.00 dollars a pair
Nicads 800 mah 3.50 dollars a pair

You simply do not have to do this. The HP does not get hot when you charge
the batteries only warm. Out of the book the maximum voltage of the AC adapter
should be 14.4 volts. The nominal (safest) voltage should be 12 volts. This
means the highest voltage it can operate at is 14 volts but it should have 12.
Check the AC and make sure it is no higher than the maximum of 14 if it is replace
it. If it still gets so hot you can't touch it have your 200LX serviced. You
have a problem with your charging circuit!

Good Luck

Hi, palmtopers:

I've recently discovered that the JAM driver (JAM.SYS) hangs up miserably
(Ctrl-ESC-ON required) when loaded after SPD21.SYS (double speed driver
from Times2Tech).

Has anybody else noticed this ?. Seems quite strange, because I just can't
imagine what has the doublespeed driver to do with virtual drives created
by JAM.

Notice that the hangup happens when the SPD31.SYS driver is loaded before,
this is, when all system timings are CORRECT, while there is no problem
when SPD31.SYS is loaded after, which means that at the time JAM.SYS loads
and initializes, all system timings are INCORRECT.


Regards. Nacho.

12V, min 9.6, max 14.4V.

Hi !

Does anybodu uses  the Citizen PN 60i printer under DOS
e.g. with Word 5.5? And of course,the serial port?

What printer has to be configured in DOS?

ANy changes necessary for the COM1 -port?

I tried
 copy c:\config.sys com1:
but get only a
 Write fault error writing to device COM1
message. On a normal desktop it works without problems..

The serial port is enabled,
IO address ist set to 03F8, Interrupt is 4, same as on desktop.


IR printing works great with the PN60i, but after app. 10 pages
the cartridge is empty.
Printing quality is good, but not laserlike.


Thanks,

Jens

I think that the poster is genuine. I bought an HP200LX from her a few weeks
ago. The only surprise to me was that she is in Korea, and naturally enough
the HP200LX has a Korean keyboard. As far as I can tell it is a standard
keyboard with a series of Korean characters that you access via some strange
combination of CTRL-ALT-whatever keys that I haven't figured out yet.

She told me that the first machine she had for sale (the one I bought) was
her own personal one, but that some of her HP200LX-owning friends are now
asking her to sell theirs on the web too. If it's a line, it's a new one on
me.....and, like I said, I got my HP200LX from her and I have no complaints.

Jeremy

P.S. How easy is it to replace a Korean keyboard mask with a standard one? I
read somewhere that the template is attached to the rest of the keyboard
assembly. If I ever tire of the Korean characters on it, I may replace it.

Or can I use other plugs with the HP?

Yes.

Well, let me explain it a little more. I don't know whether the problem I'm
aware of is the so called "memory effect" and whether this problem still
exists with todays batteries. There is a problem however:

During the charge cycle, the battery converts some chemicals into other
(solid) chemicals. The solid material consists of crystals (just like
sugar). Initially, the crystals are very small. If the battery is
discharged, the crystals are converted again. However, if the battery is
not completely discharged, some crystals remain, and during the next charge
cycle, instead of the formation of new crystals, the old crystals grow
(just like with sugar and snow). There are two problems with larger
crystals, one is that the same mass has less surface, and it is the surface
which is doing the work if current is demanded from the batteries. The
second problem is that the crystals may eventually become so large that
they penetrate the isolation, and that the battery short-cuts itself. (The
trick here is to discharge a high-voltage condensator over the battery to
burn out the short-cut, but it is better to prevent it).

There are several ways to avoid the formation of larger crystals: 1)
Discharge the battery competely before charging it. You don't have to do it
everytime, but doing it once in a while is sufficient to protect your
batteries. 2) Don't overcharge the batteries. Especially long term trickle
charge is known to cause this problem. (and even "fast charge" on the HP is
with higher capacity batteries actually just a trickle charge). 3) Apply
heavy charge or discharge currents on the battery. Unfortunately, we can
not control the charge rate. 100mA is a little bit to small. Secondly, we
can not really control the discharge rate either, unless you are using a
modem. So there is a real danger of loosing capacity in the batteries over
some time.

NiHM batteries almost don't suffer from the problems mentioned above, but
they have problems of their own. NiHM batteries are very sensitive to
overcharging, and this is a real danger in the HP200LX. Secondly, NiHM
batteries have a higher internal resistance, which means in practice that
they are less able to produce larger currents, like you need for highspeed
modems. In practice this means that the "internal resistor" in the battery
converts some charge into heat, and the higher the current, the less the
capacity seems to be. This matches with the observation of some people in
the list here that if they are using modems that the NiHM batteries don't
keep up longer than their smaller NiCd brothers.

My advice: if you are using a decent charge protocol like delta-U (I
haven't seen an implementation for the HP yet (no, also not ABC/LX)) and
not using high-current devices too often, go for the NiHM batteries. If
your charge protocol is poor and you are using high current devices often,
go for the higher (800 mAh) capacity NiCd's.

No it isn't. First, heat is very subjective. 30 Celcius feels comfortable,
while 55 Celcius is enough to burn your finger. Chips can live in 150
Celcius for their entire life-span without difficulties. Heat is bad for
the batteries though. (They contain water which eventually vaporizes, but
chips don't, and if they did, a high temperature would actually be a very
good treatment for them).

You shouldn't heat chips until the moment when smoke starts to come out.
You can still get them fixed if you manage to get the smoke in again at the
right places, but I haven't someone met yet who managed to do that. :-)

I didn't know that. But if this is true, it means that to charge with 100mA
by 3 Volts, you need actually 30mA input by 12 volts. I will check with a
meter to see if this is true. It doesn't match with the observation from
some people on this list that a lower input voltage results in less heat,
and keeps the display readable during charging.

Syntax for debugging is:

Other values for nn possible? (Avi??)

One question hard to answer is:

Hi Nacho

I'm curious if you have 31 or 21.sys??

I have spd31.sys and have it loaded BEFORE both stacker and Jam.sys.. I have
a stacked Flash card and Jammed C:Drive.  No problems here.

BTW Spd31.sys is the FIRST thing in my config.sys.

One thing to check...are you trying to load spd31  twice in 2 different
config.sys? Curious as to what is happening on your machine..

I have a 40 meg Sandisk compact flash in my 200lx and I don't find any
latency when I turn it on.  It's instantaneous.  What I do find is a 2
second pause when I get a directory of the A: drive after it's done the
directory listing and is calculating the free space.  This only happens
the first time you do a directory listing unless you make changes. If you
do make changes the next directory listing will usually, but not always,
pause again.  I haven't looked into why it doesn't always do it.

I just got the 200lx and played with it for a minute to make sure I wasn't
overlooking anything and I couldn't find any other pause.

I can take a zip disk with me with no drive when I go to

a drive at my destination.  A lot of people have them.

That's hard to compete with.

From the HP cable (guess you did know this already)

AFAIK, the plug is not sold sepparately. You need to cut the connectivity
cable.

>Or can I use other plugs with the HP?

Well, not really. The external shape of the plug is HP-propietary and if
you want a perfect plug you would have to purchase the conectivity cable
from HP. But this would be a quite expensive plug.

Notica that the pins in the HP200LX are just standard ones with 2mm spacing
. All you need is a double row 10 pin piece of female connector of this
spacing. They're sold in long rows than can be cut to te appropiate size.

But at least here, 2mm spacing is very rare and thus hard to find. I got
mine as samples from a IC socket and accesories manufacturer (PRECI-DIP or
something like that I recall).=20

Here's an idea to help protect your data.  Create a repeating appointment =
to
remind you to check the state of the backup battery.  (I set it to twice =
a
week.) Also, every time I replace the backup battery I leave myself a =

for 6 months in the future to replace it again.

I'd rather replace a backup battery that is still good than lose data =

it got too weak.

Most low power devices won't mind the lower AC frequency; if they do =
you'll be

like
motors and large transformers may have problems because they probably =

I think the "memory effect" is not relevant these days. I've had one pair

I have two "old" 40 MB IBM "Solid State File" P/N 40G3165 cards. These
show a 2 or 3 second pause when I first turn the HP200LX on. After that, access
to the card seems instantaneous.  I just assumed that the card had to "wake up" or
something.

If your IBM cards are in good condition, how would you like to trade one of them for a new CF48MB card and adapter?

I have a client who needs one that can be used with an HP Omnibook 425 and the newer Simple Tech cards won't work.

Subject:        Re: SanDisk new card- tried it?

I have two "old" 40 MB IBM "Solid State File" P/N 40G3165 cards. These
show a 2 or 3 second pause when I first turn the HP200LX on. After that, access
to the card seems instantaneous.  I just assumed that the card had to "wake up" or
something.

Power supplies are usually rated at a nominal voltage plus or minus a
certain tolerance. I would say that 11.7 volts is close enough to be called
12 volts.  So,...if we were to say 12.0v +/- 10% then the range would be
13.2 volts , down to 10.8 v  ( 10% is very generous ).

Nominal nicad cell voltage for a topped off cell is around 1.4 volts so I
would say 2.88 volts is fully charged.  Some chargers can push this voltage
higher, but I am not sure how this would affect the chemistry of the
batteries.

I suspect that HP uses a switching power supply, according to the effeciency
levels I have seen on the list.  If the efficiency is higher then less heat
is produced by the power supply.  Also,.... the nicads won't produce
significant heat until they are topped off.....at which point most of the
energy is used to produce heat instead of charge.

As you can see, there are several factors in determining the heat output.

I talked to David Shier about this today and he seemed to think that it
would. I will try to do some timing exercises to see if he is correct.

If there is a new one to get!

One of the reason we should be interested in this subject is that the
replacement for our LX will probably be a secondhand one. We may end up
buying a s/h LX that has been baked every night.

As I understand it: the conclusion is that some believe that the
circuits can live happily in extreme temperatures and some believe that
any heat can be harmful.

_If_ charging at 100mA _can_ be harmful for the LX, then ABC/LX may be
good for the (relatively cheap) batteries but not for the (expensive and
soon irreplacable) LX. In this respect: when the LX was designed,
NiCd batteries were probably around 3-400mAH.

I think I will stick to 45mA trickle charging overnight until you h/w
experts agree. Seems to work fine for me anyway.

I've tried the following "clean" configuration, and it hangs up (no

Those who are working in the electronics industry believe that circuits can
live happily in temperatures which are not comfortable for humans. Humans
and chips are different things. The chips in your audio amplifier, your
microwave oven, the chips in satellites, computers, etc. all get pretty
heat, and failure is almost never due to heat.

Around 600mA, but that doesn't matter. What matters is that still for these
batteries HP designed the LX for charging with 100mA. By default, it
charges for 6 hours with 100mA. (This gives an almost full charge with
600mA batteries). If the HP can charge for 6 hours with 100mA, it can also
do it for 12 hours.

Hopefully as long as HP keeps selling them they'll keep making them.
This is always a concern but I wonder how well the expensive
calculators like the 48 sell. Thats a very specific market yet they
keep making and selling them and probably turning a profit. There's
a heck of a lot of 200LX users and people will always need a small
dos based computer.

The operting tempuature is 0-50 degrees C.
The maximum internal "rule of thumb" for IC's like the hornet is 150 degrees C. Operating
is 70 degrees C. (These are just "estimates" its been a while
and I don't have data sheets!) Its usually higher for IC's like switching regulaturs
and voltage regulaturs. I doubt the little bit of heat from a properly
operating charging circuit will hurt them. If people are really concerned about
it they could open up the 200LX and put a heat sink (if theres room) on the critical
chips.

Frans,
Logik and commom sense are not absolute,
especially in science, Pascal made that mistake.

"If the HP can charge for 6 hours with 100mA,
it can also do it for 12 hours."

I'm not an EE but the above statement somehow
doesn't sit right, althought I'd like to believe
it. Perchance STRENGTH OF MATERIALS gets involved
in here somewheres?

Better to be than to have,

Hi All:

     I just installed the NECX $10 PCMCIA card in my W95 Desktop. I am
able to use my Apollo/EXP 33.6i FAX/MODEM & read/write to my PNY 8MB
CF(w/adapter)...WORKS GREAT!...$14 w/UPS ground shipping...still
available as of this message.

FYI: Here's how to get it(Thanks Pete!):

Go to the main page, www.necx.com and click on outlet center. you
will get another screen that says click for outlet center (this may go
by automatically it is a redirect) then you will get a screen
explaining their outlet center. From there click on the top link that
says enter the outlet center (something like that) and you will see
the pcmcia adaptor as the third bulleted item.

Cheers,

Very true....just charge it twice.  the problem with doing this is that you
are risking overcharging the batteries.  As soon as the batteries are
full....they will start to heat up.  Heat is very bad for rechargable
batteries.

If your LX gets real warm when charging, it could be that one of the cells
is defective and the non-defective one is being forced to deal with the
additional charging voltage.

Greetings,
The IBrowse program (on Super?) claims to be able to convert
windows .ICO files to .ICN. I haven't tried to use that function so I
don't know for sure. Hope it works for you.

Come on! We are talking about heat development! Don't you think that after
6 hours of operating the maximum temperature has already been reached since
a long time? It doesn't get any hotter anymore after 6 hours. And if it is
designed to deliver 100mA for 6 hours, it can also do it for years. Apart
from this, I have *never* heard anyone who burned out his 200LX due to
charging the batteries. How many of us are using rechargables?

Heat problems? Logic is against it, common sense is against it, and the
experience of thousands of 200LX users is against it.

With 100mA by 12 volts you are putting 1.2 Watts in the HP (Watt is Volt *
Amperes). 1.2 Watts! Doesn't sound as a terrible heat source, eh? Add to
this that silicon devices suffer no harm by continues operation at 150
Celcius (dunno in Fahrenheit but water boils at 100 Celcius), and that you
hardly can reach such a temperature with 1.2 Watts. Don't forget also that
solder starts melting at around 200 Celcius, and that the components inside
the HP are soldered and thus have been exposed to at least 200 Celcius,
without suffering damage. If you heat the 200LX up, the plastic case starts
melting long before the hardware gives up!

I have built a 100 Amp (!) 12 Volt powersupply years ago, and it is in 24
hours of operation per day. An internal FAN keeps the heatsink down to 75
Celcius. If it gets colder, the FAN shuts off. The components on the
heatsink have a higher temperature than the heatsink itself of course. And
they are operating already for years, without any problems or failures.

Note, I'm talking about a correctly working 200LX. If it is malfunctioning
and pulls 2 Amperes or something, then you can destroy it. But in that case
the device needs service anyway, like any malfunctioning device.

Frans.

Does any one out there know where I might be able to get ahold of the
cable that connects the LCD to the mother board on a 100lx system.  I
am experiencing the messed up screen and have found that wiggling the
cable causes the problem and fixes it.  Other wise the system works
fine.
Thanks for the help.

I have an HP 20Meg Flash disk with 8K blocks. Since I am running
stacker on it would I get any benefit from going to smaller blocks?
My impression was that stacker made one contiguous file so that
block size was irrelevant.

                I noticed that HP earnings will be lower than expected.

                I am not really surprised. They used to have _unique_
products with no
                real competition; their R&D were second to none: anyone
remember their
                calculators with 49 steps as far as I remember in the
mid-70ies? Today
                they mix in crowded areas trying to live on their name:
digital photo,
                scanners, Windows CE, standard computers and printers
(though admittedly
                _they_ made the standard).

                I'm all for cost-cutting, but what made them special and
big was the
                unique products, i.e. their R&D. The only HP-news I
recall is the new
                Java but that isn't going to sell the hardware.

                HP: how about a DOS computer with a HP-48 (extended with
business stuff)
                like calculator and a DOS web-browser+email inside? Or
if graphics
                windows are that important, a Windows with a prompt
(X-windows like?).

I am having trouble getting LXBACKUP to automate with an appointment.  I am

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  In addition, can you specify
different configuration files?

I think Dave may have been referring to a "Texas Catheter".  This is a
device that is used by the "Iron Butt" motorcycle crowd to keep from

Hi Tom,

I'll do! Just ordered Two. I'll let you know when it arrives.
That will be $17.00 shipped. The extra 3.00 is for Priority Mail.

Keep this on the Q-T.

As this doesnt include software, what drivers are needed for this card? and
where may they be found?  sounds like a great deal.

The card is supported by drivers included in Win95 as a "PCIC or
Compatible PCMCIA controller". The only info I found on the card is
that it seems to be by SCM, maybe a relative to the "SCM Swapbox"
that I have seen for sale. If you need other OS drivers you might
want to search for SCM and see if anything is available. If you find
anything keep us posted.

Here in LA, yes.  In Phoenix, AZ, it is a different story.  I moved to

electronics and parts.  They said Fry's.  I was confused as in Phoenix
Fry's is a grocery store chain and that was all I knew.  I went to my
first Fry's in San Fernando Valley and I thought I was in Dizneyland
(did not want to infringe) because the place was decorated in Alice in
Wonderland with the entrance falling down the rabbit hole.  The tables
are giant mushrooms!!!  It is great.  I have since been to 3 others.  In
Burbank it is space with a giant flying saucer crashed through the front
of the building, the checkout being an old dinner and the army fighting

dim, warehouse without any style.  Hard to read things on the boxes as

Subject:      Thinking out LOUD

Hi guys, that means girls too :)
Maybe woMEN is a better woid.

Being a lazy guy, When PCs first came out a few
moons ago, no they weren't always here forever. I
wanted to put tiny macros in my function keys
like F1=A:, F2=B:, F3=C:, F4=D: etc.

I found a small assembler (BAL) routine that
permitted me to do this by imputting it via the
DEBUG pgm and viola! I have a small COM pgm and
have been using it for more than 10 yrs now. I was
wondering if someone has this pgm because now I'd
like to adjust the size of the macro in the keys.

Reason I even bother to ask is I've notice that
other people do funny things like I do, like pulling
out all the reply cards of new mags before reading,
so............maybe.........

Yes, there are utils that will do this but not as
good. Yes, its poss to reverse engineer it, but that
is a small project that I'm not good enough to want
to spend the time on.   Just asking.........

Better to be than to have,
yor pal al :) .............

You've got the wrong city, Dan. I live in Long Beach, and we don't have =
a Fry's. Perhaps you're thinking of Manhattan Beach (LA County) or =

Are there any other fans of Curtis Cameron's "Freecell" for the HPLX?

The Doc says: "FreeCell seems very difficult at first, but almost every
game can be won."  So far I believe that; I've won all my 233 games
since the latest version allowed me start saving my place in the middle
of a game.  Liberal use of Undo and an occasional Restart allow me to
defeat the toughest games (so far...).  I've encountered a couple of
really difficult ones but most aren't too bad and a couple could even
be called easy.

The only thing I wish it had was a game number so certain games could
be repeated by starting them with a random number seed.  Then I could
challenge the other players here with games I thought especially good.

Cheers...
Russ

Dear all,

I used to pay for stuff mail ordered from USA at US0.40 to a Ringgit. With
the exchange rate of US0.24 these days, I'd put off much buying from
anywhere. I reckon our purchasing power is cut by half and this definitely
affect trade.

>real, and won't soon end. Ask Merck (NYSE: MRK), Hewlett-Packard (NYSE:
>HWP) or Computer Associates (NYSE: CA), all of which announced
>disappointing earnings this week, and warned of rough times ahead." -
<snip>

I'm not at all surprised at these earnings by MNCs 'cos just b4 the
financial problems, these big guys are looking at Asia-Pac as the fastest
growing area in terms of trade and revenues. So naturally, it affect their
bottom line at the end of the day (back home at that).

This, I believe is just the tip of the iceberg; a lot more US companies
are going is affected-(companies with production in Asia esp.)

So much for people who think that they will escape Asian financial crisis
when they are based elsewhere...

You can't get to Juno via a shell.  A friend on another list was wanting
to use Juno as the carrier for some information transfers and contacted
Juno.  They said somewhere in the licensing agreement is a specific
statement forbidding access to Juno through anything other than the GUI.
As the agreement is over 10 pages of legal jargon, I'm not inclined to
read it (despite being a law student).

If, however, some enterprising soul figures out a way around this, I'd
love to hear it too.

Seems to be just like you described with my 2times 200LX (SysMgr still
running, using Nofiddle TSR):

Modem connect: 57K, line speed 28.8K, downloaded a mail 213618Byte (size
according to POST/LX) in 2 minutes (about 14KBit/sec) - of course I
don't know how the traffic was at download time. ???  :-(((

I did not see an exception to the '++-++-++-...' pattern. I can't
believe this is simply caused by bad packets and retries - there would
be a '+++' or a '-+-' at least sometimes.

I did not look at modem settings, compression,....

We can go into details if wanted.

Best Regards
  Hermann

Hi All,
Juno cannot be used by a 200lx. Their MINIMUM is a 386,4 MB RAM, 15 MB
HDD space and Win 3.1. NO DOS, OS/2 native, or Mac :-(  This is per
their web page, conversations with reps and their little info card that
comes with the software. That means all of those on the list that have
Juno are not then using their 200lx (at that moment) for e-mail. Sorry
to be the bearer of bad news!

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

This is bugging me. I dont have much hope left, so this is my last
attemt to get help with this problem that I have.

I am using Ericsson DC23 PCMCIA cellular modem with my hp200lx palmtop.
Its realy an amazing little modem. I dont even notice any difference in
battery drain when I use it.

I use it without any problems with Goin Postal, Data Comm and Banana Comm
But when I use it with WWW/LX it just say ***modem not ready.
The same responce You get when You try to use www/lx with a pcmcia
slot but no card inserted.
If I then switch to Data Comm i see this buffered messages:
AT
OK
+++AT
OK
Wich means that WWW/LX has spoken to the modem but it can not hear the
responce the DC23 has given. It does not matter what I put in the Init
field as it will not get that far.
I have tried with every available driver. cic100,cic200,cicfake and
lxcic.
I have used WWW/LX with other PCMCIA modems so I know how to set it up.
(Megaherz 1414 and Apex 1414)

Now here is the strange part.
I then started WWW/LX on my 486 notebook running Window$ 95, using the
standard PCMCIA driver. AND IT WORKED!??

It must be something wierd in the hp200lx, DC23 and the WWW/LX (Yes Avi =
we
have discussed this ;-> but I can only draw a conclusion on the
facts I have before me) that does not matter when they are alone, but
combined they do not work.

I have spoken to some fellow HP200lx and DC23 users, and some say "no
problem" and some say the same as me. The DC23 comes in two versions.
One 961217 and one 970603 something. The new version works, but can only
be used with another phone and another cable.
I have the old version.

If someone has any clue, tip or comfort - then mail me.

Subject: ANN: New version of XTCE available

Hi,

I am pleased (and relieved) to announce that the commercial
version of XT-CE (version 2.0) is now available.

This version incorporates a completely rewritten user interface,
BIOS and hardware emulation. In addition the CPU emulation in this
version is 20-30% faster than previous versions.

All the standard chips found in a PC-XT are now completely emulated
including:

80186 CPU (Processor)
8259A PIC (Interrupt controller)
8254 PIT (Programmable timer)
8255 PPI (Keyboard interface)
2x 8250 UARTs (Serial port interfaces)
CGA controller

This should allow most programs (and operating systems) to run
correctly on XT-CE, even those that access the PC-XT hardware directly.
The floppy and hard drive controllers are not emulated as these
are emulated at a BIOS level. Very few programs SHOULD access the floppy
and hard disk hardware directly. The DMA controller is also not emulated
as it has no function in a PC-XT emulator.

As the emulation is now hardware-compatible with a real PC-XT, portions
of the BIOS (notably the keyboard BIOS) from a real XT-clone are used for
increased application and operating system compatibility.

The new user interface is more style-compliant with Windows CE and includes
online help.


There is a new demo version available now at:

Please make sure that you read the Readme.txt within these archives for

Good Luck!

=================================================================
Folks,

Please no flames. I am a happy HP200LX user. However I feel Ian's work
with xt-ce is valuable.

I don't think HP will improve/upgrade our beloved 200lx.  They think they
have with the CE machines. So with the on going improvements to xt-ce we
can lobby hp to fix the keyboard. I can see them accepting that idea.

As to the size issue, some of the ce machines are getting smaller.

So with time we should end up with a liveable CE machine.

Harry,

I've just installed an Eiger Labs 'Card-Port' in my PII PC under W95
SR2.1.
After the HW was installed, I called up the HW-Assistant, which
recognized the PCMCIA HW and installed the necessary drivers from the
W95 CD. I had no trouble with the my 10MB ATA Flash card (Sundisk ATA
driver).
Maybe you put it into slot 1 before you start the HW-Assistent.

Later, as soon as you insert tha ATA Flash card, after a beep, a new
drive should show up (there must be a drive letter available I guess).

If you open System/devices (since I'm using a German W95, the names may
be incorrect), there should be another disk controller: 'SunDisk ATA
FlashDisk' and another disk-drive: 'Generic IDE Disk Type 47'. Both will
disappear after removal of the Flash-Card.
Good luck.

I had more problems with installing drivers for SRAM-Cards. W95 Help
states that I have to use DOS drivers for that (it shakes me, brrrrrr).

Best Regards
  Hermann

Where is that buffer? - in the DC23 modem? Otherwise I wonder how you
can handle the same buffer with two different programs.
Data Comm should not be active when using other comm prgrs I think.
I'm just guessing.

Good luck,

If so, please mail me.

I want to connect a ZIP drive to my 200LX.

Thanks
  Hermann

Has anyone tried to use the hp with this kind of GSM phone?
The phone is very interesting: with a a built in infrared modem
with the possibility of using a serial db9.

You need a Win95 OSR2 or 950B version.
Earlier version cannot work unless you install the Microsoft service pack 1.

I have some dbase utilities but i do not know exactly what functions that
you want for this tool. Can you list them out. I can think of having
- create/amend/browse/display db
- display db in format file eg *.fmt
- report
- sorting/indexing
- what else?

I'd be very suprised is Juno used anything other than PPP or SLIP
for dial-up connections. I'm pretty sure the last of the vendor-specific
protocol ISPs went out of business a few years ago. What you could
do is install their software on a Windoze 95 machine, enable full
logging of the PPP or SLIP traffic, look at the exchange to figure
out the logon sequence (i.e. username, negoiation, etc.) and setup up
your package on the 200lx to emulate it. I did something similiar
about 3 or 4 years ago. Usually a login script will suffice.

That's interesting. How could they possible know what you are using
to dial in with, if the protocol you send them meets their requirements?
It would be even more interesting to see if and how they would defend
this in court.

This doesn't have anything to do with the question that's asked, but:

For some reason your message, which I was reading in Pine, consistently
caused my Linux machine to hang up its connection to my ISP.  The only
guess I have is that somehow your "+++ATH" command on a line alone was
interpreted as a modem command somehow, and hung up the modem.

Anybody else have anything like this happen?  It's a good thing I was able
to connect to my desktop at work via pcANYWHERE and then telnet over the
LAN and reboot the server, or I would have been out of luck.  :)

The 3.1 version is a simple terminal program, with an offline reader and a
graphic display engine for the ads.

I don't know about the new Win95 version.

So, is possible to sign up with the Win3.1 software, then use one of the many

I concur exactly with this message.  I love the game, but a numbering

mark which ones I could not solve quickly and come back to them if I

(Man, I've been posting all sorts of silly stuff here recently.. :)

I had a pretty accurate eclipse (sun and moon) prediction program on my HP48
and I've written down all of the visible eclipses to the year 2000 (although I
never set an apointment or what not and forget to look for them.. :(.  I've
searched Simtel and Shareware.com without coming up with a suitable program,
and I'm hoping someone knows where I can get one.  :)

On another note, I found a neato program called Space Flight Simulator in the
Simtel Astronomy section, and while it doesn't work well in CGA because it
doesn't have video memory separation (or something like that) the screen
writes upon itself, but it's really not unusable..  The fonts slightly overlap
each other, but it seems to work..  I haven't figured it totally out yet, but
almost seems like another orbital tracking possibility, perhaps Jeff will try
it and tell us what he thinks.. :)

Thanks for any eclipse softare pointers!

Obviously it is doubtful they'd be taking anyone to court.  If they could
catch you, you'd lose your account.

The programmer who'd originally given me this information had written an
anonymous remailer around the Juno service.  He spent some time
investigating the whole interface and the server and such and finally
decided it wasn't worth it to try to emulate.  There are lots of
diagnostic and informational junk sent with the logins to manage the
advertising and your responses to it that are just too hard to fake.  You
might make it for awhile but soon you'd get, "Couldn't connect to
network." messages when their server discovered the infidel invader.

I'm no expert; this is just the information passed along to me by an
individual who'd spent a bit of time trying to work around the whold
mess.

Of course, since Juno will soon become a full-fledged ISP (for a fee),
this may all change.

the question was ever resolved. I think the software will run on the HP

Subject:      Transfer of POSTLX MAIL.I files to Eudora *.MBX files
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Dear friends,
How can I keep a consistent and complete database of my incoming and
outgoing mail, using  my desktop and the 200LX  alternately ?
The solutions I have been thinking of are:
1) Run POSTLX also on my desktop, in order to have equally formatted mail.i
 and mail.o files.
This ist not convenient, as I already keep a lot in my Eudora database and
am used to it.
2) Leave the mail on the server and, after completing a trip, checking the
mail via Eudora another time to get it into the main database, deleting it
from the palmtop.
This is not convenient either, because the palmtop, during the trip, would
have to read an ever increasing amount of mail every day. One consequence
of this would be that I would have to unsuscribe from the list for the time
of travel.

1ST QUESTION: Is there a way to read the mail files by Eudora ?
I have tried renaming the mail.i  files to .mbx. However, Eudora does not
recognize the individual messages but treats the file as a digest.

This brings me to my
2ND QUESTION: Somebody on Avi Meshar's statement that he wanted to change
to digest format for the list,  that it would be difficult to sort the
messages by threads when they come all  in one file together.
How to solve this problem ?
The Readmail program was mentioned once for this purpose, however, I do not
know if it would work.

Subject:      TINYPROG

Hey List;

If there are any of you out there with not enough
storge space, have nothing to do this weekend,
and want to stretch your C: storage space, unless
you already have 32MB. There is a nifty pgm on
SUPER called tinyprog that will shrink many of your
EXE and COM pgms to 50% of its present size.

That could increase your C: drive by a couple
hundred KBs or more.

Better to be than to have,
yor pal al :) .............

Dr. Winfried:

One other approach I used occassionally - suppose you designate the
palmtop and POST/LX as your main repository.  When you read some
e-mail on your server at work, and want to keep it permanently,
just copy those messages back into your in-box and then download
from POST/LX.  To make this easier for me, I created a soft link
(could be a hard link, too, just my preference) in my /Mail directory
called in.  It is linked as follows:

    in -> /usr/spool/mail/rclott

Then from within my mailer (I use elm), it is easy to "re-mail"
something to yourself by just saving it to the folder named "in".
Also, the BOUNCE command that some mail programs have would probably
do the same thing - just bounce a message to yourself and don't read
it when it arrives.

Now when I finally get around to it, I've been studying the e-mail
format of the .o and .i files.  I eventually plan to be able to convert
my archives back and forth between "standard" UNIX mail folder formats
and POST/LX at will.

I was mostly thinking of toting along some databases as reference material
and a simple viewer is what I was after. But the nature of databases (big)
is such that effective queries and lookups are practical only if you can
slice and dice the data somewhat (ie sort and filter).

The built-in DB app is fine for this, but the limits on the size of the
files precludes working with data of any appreciable size.

Creating and appending would be nice, but secondary to query, at least for
me, and I don't do many reports.

I already have DB-3 and can do the above, but with some pain and 500k of
disk space. I also have FrameWork-3 on the LX, which reads/filters/sorts
dbf files very well, but has to load all of the database into memory in
order to do its work, making it a memory hog for even medium sized
databases.

Folks,

I picked up a used copy of Act for HP. Disk turned out to be missing so
I ended up with just the manual but several folks were able to help me
with getting the software.

Only problem is the version I was able to get is 1.1.1 which won't sych
with my DOS 2.11 version.  OK I figured I'd find a copy of the Windows
version of 2.0.4 - 2.0.6 (which will sych).  Windows version would be
nicer anyways.

So far I have not been able to find a copy. So does anyone have any ideas
on finding it or a copy of Act 1.1 for 95lx?

The heat question/problem is closely related to the charger you're
using. Use one that doesn't exceed 12 volts, and is preferably
regulated. You can even use a 9 (or so) volt output charger with
excellent results, and the HP will run quite cool, since the internal
regulator has less power to dissipate in dropping from the charger
voltage (of 9-12v) to the battery voltage of ~3 during charge. All that
excess goes up in heat.

My unit runs quite cool with my charger at home, which is around 9.8v.
It's still OK, but hotter with the one I use at the office, which is a
true 12v.

Is it any better than Diet?  I've been using Diet for some while, tried PKLite
and found it much slower and usually less effecient.  I may have to try it out
anyway..

Frans,
You're right about the temperature reaching steady state after several
hours, and you're right about silicon chips being heat resistant. But
you made an error in your heat dissipation calculation: If the input
voltage is 12v, and the battery voltage under charge is about 3v, then
the heat dissipated in the voltage regulator is (12-3)*100ma=0.9 watts.
BUT... to this you have to add the power consumed by the rest of the
computer, so it may still be near the 1.2 watts you calculated.

In any case, I've found (as you would expect) that using a lower voltage
REGULATED power supply (~9V), lets me charge the NiMH batteries very
well, and the HP stays pretty cool.

I do this with the built in to do app. based on advice given to me by
someone else on this list.
I just give an area title a priorty code of letter plus zero
Example
C0 ------ Congregation ---------------
F0 ------ Family ---------------------
H0 ------ Hooper Memorial Center -----
S0 ------ School ---------------------

Then give todo items a letter plus number
C2  type new public talk schedule
H3  run query for QA meeting
F3  Card & flowers for wife

the results looks like:


C0 ------ Congregation ---------------
C2  type new public talk schedule
F0 ------ Family ---------------------
F3  Card & flowers for wife
H0 ------ Hooper Memorial Center -----
H3  run query for QA meeting
S0 ------ School ---------------------

However if you need more you might consider Lotus Agenda.

You may be right.

But from memory, I think the 20-30% speed increase on the older XTPC
will bring it to about the speed of an ordinary hp200lx -- on the
fastest WinCE of all, the hp620lx (which runs at 100MHz!... I think)

If a WinCE comes out at 200MHz... imagine what the Libretto approach
will be doing!

450MHz? Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if you need WimpCE to run
the emulator or will it also run directly on the hardware?

So that's why usingt the OFFICAL  HP F1011A adapter that outputs 12v
always makes it too hot to handle?   They must have some good teckys
that coulda figured it out, no?   Now I gotta throw 'em all away and buy

No, only Win3.0 or older works on 200LX.
Win3.1 requires 286 or better.

Win 3.1 needs the 286's protected mode.

I posted a similar question to the list a week or two ago. Judging by the
very limited response it seems no-one has tried this.

I've done a bit more research with the following results...

(1) I don't see why the phone wouldn't work with the hp using the direct
serial cable input. The collection of cables required would be rather clumsy,
although you could make your own.

(2) I doubt that the HP would work 'out of the box' with the IR interface. It
seems
that the HP uses a protocol known as SIR rather than IrDA as used by the
Ericsson phone.

(3) However, a DOS based IrDA driver is available on the hp web site (look for
file name dj346en.exe). The site says that the driver will work with DOS
applications on the hp (but NOT the built in apps) for printing to IrDA
printers.
I've also read reports (I think from this list) that people have successfully
used the driver for IrDA data transfer to/from desktop machines. It seems,
therefore, that the driver will support more than just printing and thus I
guess there's a chance that it might work with the Ericsson phone. It's a bit
of a long shot though, and the only way to find out is for someone to try.

If anyone does try this, then please post the result to this list.

If the driver doesn't work, then the only alternative is to write one, which
would probably take me about 2 years with the amount of free time I have at
the moment! (and I'll have to find the money for the development kit too)

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


I've noticed there are now some "SmartMedia" flash disk adaptors for 3.5
inch floppy drives.

Ritz Camera (1-800-52-FOCUS) is selling a Fujifilm Flashpath Floppy Disk
Adapter FD-A1 for $99.99.

Apparently TigerDirect (1-800-888-4437) is selling the same adapter but
calling it the Olympus Flashpath Floppy Disk Adapter.

Are these SmartMedia cards the same as compact flash cards?

If so, has anyone tried one of these?  Do they work OK?

No, the SmartMedia cards are a different dimension and to my knowledge, no
adapter exists to accomodate a PCMCIA slot and I suspect that's because the
recording format differs from the ATA format of CompactFlash.
IOW, you can't use SmartMedia cards for the 200LX.

Also, to my knowledge no one has created a floppy adapter for CompactFlash.
So you still can't pop your CF card into your desktop's floppy drive.

Yes, you read it right !!!!
I am looking for a 1200 baud modem (a "pocket"  one to run off the Comm 1
serial port, or a PCMCIA card-type that will work on the cardslot of  my
HPLX as Comm 2).  I have a very quirky, cranky, cantankerous and curmudgeony
program that I use almost daily and it will only work with a 1200 baud
modem.  Thre is no other program that will do the job I need it for because
it is equipment-specific.  If you have one, we can deal.  Let me know
off-list.  Thanks.

Hi Patrick,

First, I wanted to thank you for all your help with my HP Palmtop...

But, I decided that I want to sell it.  You said that you might be able
to direct me to locations that I can see it at, and also a resonable
price.  I haven't the foggiest idea what it's worth.

I haven't used it much, it works great...  it has an addon pack to
connect to the PC.

thanX for the help...

Lanny

Please forgive the dumb question but
why can't you use a faster modem and just slow the speed

Cool.  Definitely a great idea.

BTW, I was also browsing the What's New page at PALMTOP.NET (gotta get
it right this time Mitch) and saw the following entry:

   25 Jul 98 - David Sargeant joins the SUPER Team; Fong retires

So long Fong and thanks for the support.  David should be a great asset
to the S.U.P.E.R. team, sounds like you have made a great acquisition.

With the FINAL push from someone from the HPLX-L list I decided to
REMOVED the screws from the Trans-PC-Card connector cable. I was ONLY
able to connect to the WRONG port of the ZIP drive - the rerouting of
the printer ! After removing the screws it was only then to connect the
right port of the ZIP drive. The manufacture delivered the connector
with the screws up-site-down.

Now all is working....

I'd like to add my congradulations to David Sargeant. Judging from his
fine web site, and his many helpful responses on this list, he'll be a
valuable asset to the Super Team.

Congradulations, David! And may the 200LX be with you!

The adapters are being sold by at least one vendor in Japan who claims the
combination of its adapter and Smartmedia work better than CF plus adaptor.
Since I've had zero problems with CF plus adaper with my HP200lx and two
subnote computers, I find that claim hard to believe.

I know very well. But in that message I was talking about the amount of
energy that is put into the 200LX, including the energy which goes to the
batteries, and assumed (to be on the safe side) that ALL energy is
converted into heat.

I wanted to make clear that you can not generate more energy than you put
into the 200LX, so in *worst case* you end up with 1.2 Watts.  Which is
still to little to really have to worry about forced air cooling etc. :-)

Yep, I know. But I have heard that the HP even doesn't have a linear
voltage regulator but is using a small switching supply (DC-DC convertor)
so the figures should even be better.

Someone has made a cable to hook up a GameBoy to a PC, but it uses a
parallel port. From what I've read, the GameBoy does not use standard
RS232 protocol.
http://hiwaay.net/~jfrohwei/gameboy/gb2pp7.gif

My idea has been trying to get the PC to emulate the GameBoy printer.

What exactly does "work better" mean?

CF can be used with an adapter for PCMCIA, is there another type of adapter
that you're talking about? Otherwise these are apples and oranges.

The vendor may just mean that the SmartMedia/adapter combo is more
convenient to use on existing floppy drives on desktops vs having to get a
PCMCIA slot added to the desktop.

Since notebooks are more likely to have PC card slots than floppy drives,
it's hardly likely he's talking about notebooks/laptops.

Anyway, since when did we ever take salespeople seriously <g>.

In the for what it is worth category.  I have been using a Viking
Compact flash adapter with a 16Mb compact card.  This system plugged
in my 200LX with no drivers.  I can also plug the same card into my
notebook also with out any drivers. This makes backups and file
transfers a piece of cake. The nice thing about this system is the
price. I paid $120 (with tax) for this little gem.
I also don't see any delay in the access of the card. (really have not
looked at it as it works so will)

Where did you get the card?  Did they have some a bit larger....20Mb?
Do I understand that your Viking is a flash card with 16Mb of space?

Thanks for the info!

Hi C;
Think (BIG) about 32, 48, even 64MB.
16 to 20 isn't worth the trouble.
40-48 can be gotten for about $200

Looking at Viking?  Simple is OK too.

Ditto for my Simple Technology 16mb card ordered from BuyComp
(www.buycomp.com). Cost was $112.30 which included the PCMCIA adapter, tax
and shipping. Looking at their website, I can see capacities to 48mb (for
various brands, not all of which are in stock..tho the 16mb Simple is).

Also, I believe Bernie (of Shore Systems) said he would "match and beat any
comparable price you can find"...so good prices are out there to be had.

I have the 2X speed upgrade and I can't imagine how I got by without it!
It's very stable, and it doesn't interfere with any programs I use.  The
ONLY caveat I can think of is that unless you have a flash card, if you
lose your C: drive, you lose the driver.  This results in a shifted,
difficult-to-read screen until you can get it reloaded.  Actually, how bad
the screen gets messed up seems to vary from machine to machine.  One of
my 200LXes looks almost normal without the driver, while with the other,
you can hardly read a thing.  Even with this risk (unlikely in my
experience as long as you have good batteries installed), I think it's
worth doing.

While we're on the subject of batteries, I'd recommend buying some of
Times2Tech's NiMH batteries while you're at it.  A cheaper alternative are
Radio Shack's hi-capacity NiCds, a bargain at around $8 I think.

I can't comment on WWW/LX, as I only do web browsing on my palmtop via
Lynx through a UNIX shell account.  Heck, sometimes I even use Lynx on the
desktop, just 'cause I hate waiting for stupid dancing icons to load...

Cheers.

Mack includes instructions on how to re-create the driver using debug
so even that mishap is minor if you keep the instructions on the
palmtop.

Hi al,

I don't have experience with Compact Flash Cards (CF) except that
SmartMedia Cards (SM) are cheaper at least for me here in Germany.

I use SM with my Olympus dig Camera (C-820L), *the* HP200LX, and with my
PC. The orig Olympus SM as well as SM of other brands do work.
It does not even disturb the camera if I write 'other' files to the card
(there's just less space).

In use a PCMCIA adaptor from Panasonic both on the 200LX and my PC.
The 200LX and the PC handle it like a (SanDisk) ATA Flash card - no
extra drivers necessary.

I also have the Olympus Flash-Path adaptor, which uses the floppy drive
- and because of this, is much slower than the PCMCIA adaptor solution.

On the orig Olympus SM there is some additional info (f.ex. for panorama
pictures), which I can't identify, when looking at the SM with the
palmtop at it's DOS file structure.  ????

I use a 2MB and 8MB SM till now, waiting for the 16MB SM to come soon.

So long,
 Hermann

Hi,

Accurite offers a 'Doubleslot' PCMCIA extension especially for the

Does someone have experiance?

That's what Accurite mailed to me:

-------------
The Accurite Travel 120 (LS-120 drive) is not compatible
with the HP 100LX or 200LX.

We understand that you can
run a ZIP drive with a parallel PCMCIA card in the top
slot of the DoubleSlot and a Flash card in the bottom
slot.

I stand corrected then. There indeed is a PCMCIA adapter for SmartMedia
(BTW, the Ricoh adapter is available for $66 at BuyComp), and SM is
apparently ATA based architecture, just like the CompactFlash.

SM just doesn't seem to come in the capacities of CF, and I understand the
floppy adapter requires a driver be loaded on the PC.

As a rule, Smart Media and SSFDs (Solid State Floppy Disks) will be =

I'm wondering - will WWW/LX run on a desktop? I expect it would be
at least as fast as Lynx. And sometimes seeing the gifs does make
a difference...

Subject:      small horror story

Today the right side of the hinge from my 100LX became unusable. For a year
or so the inner side of the hinge broke but my repair with acrylic glue
seemed to work.  Until today. The plastic from the hinge seemed to have
become brittle and gluing was not possible. I tried but it made no sense.
Under the remains of the hinge I discovered a spring which seems to hold the
lid in an upward position. Because the closing and or opening were hindered
by the spring action I have for the time being removed it. Does anybody know
if this will harm the innards of the hinge? Should I fill up the place of
the spring with some elastic material? Help!

Folks,

A co worker that I don't run into much saw my hplx recently.

Next day she came by with an old hp100lx. It wasn't working right kept
saying main battery failure.  She had replaced the main batteries several
times. I showed he the backup and she replaced it the next day.

I used a ac adapter on it and even with brand new backup & main batteries
and running on ac it still was flashing the battery failure message.

Any ideas?

Hi Jimmy;
To avoid losing speed drivers without flash is to back them up
on the 32 itself.  Always carry LX without flash card inserted.
Its a hunk to lose, especially if yu got one of dem velcro loops.
Yor data is also more secure if you do lose it.

Back up, after a year, is there anything?
Go to sys aps, setup, F9 and look at battery setup.
Maybe you can see something amiss.  Else,
barring any better suggestions, flush it...
Initialize C: (Y) Maybe a battery utility
is flashing a hung msg.

I hope so, below is what my copy has. It is a copy of 1.1.1
===================================================
6-20-95   1:11      64451           0  ACT.EXE


The readme says:
Important Note for ACT! for DOS users
-------------------------------------
DO NOT INSTALL THIS NEW VERSION if you will be using ACT! for HP
Palmtops with ACT! 2.1 for DOS on your PC.  ACT! 1.1.1 for HP Palmtops
is designed to work in conjunction with ACT! for Windows only and
will not link with  ACT! for DOS.  ACT! for DOS users can continue to
use the ACT! 1.1 for HP Palmtops version.
==============================================================

I had purchased a used copy of Act! for HP95LX. Version 1.0 But it ended
up being only the manual.  So I asked folks on the list and got pointed to
and sent a copy of 1.1.1

I have Act DOS version 2.11 (Box says Contact a sticker says Symantec).
As the readme warns It won't link with the 1.1.1
No biggie said I, I'll just find a windows version.  I figured the
windows version would be a little nicer anyway.  Turned out I needed
Windows version 2.0.4 or  2.0.6 (I don't know if there was a 2.0.5).

Have not been able to find it anywhere.  So I came back looking for a copy
of HP Act 1.1 or 1.0

And saddly my 2.11 dos version won't run on the HP as it needs a 286.

Sounds like we have not been careful enough to keep this fact hidden.
Send me $5000 on an open postcard and I will enroll you in the time

On a more serious note:

Seen from the UK: the San Francisco residents are 8 hours behind.
The Japanese are 9 hours ahead. And you are one hour ahead.

Hello all,

First, I'd like to thank everyone for their help
previously.  Unfortunately, it appears that the HP
will not accomplish my goals of having a palmtop that
while running on batteries can be used to access the
internet.  So, I'm taking REASONABLE offers for :

HP 200LX-2M
Few of the manuals
**BRAND NEW** Simpletech 33.6 modem

Interesting - what was your problem(s)?  Sorry, but I
must have missed your earlier post on this matter.  I
used my HP for internet access three weeks straight this
summer, it was on battery power 90% of the time, and I
had no problems at all.  I'm sorry your experience was
so different than mine...

Subject:      WWW/LX on the desktop PC

        Hello all,

    The demo version of WWW/LX indeed runs on desktop PCs. You need to
    use the PALRUN.ZIP, not INT5f! (type: c:>palrun -r wwwlx).
    But it only works using upper half of the VGA 640x480 screen or
    in CGA 640x200 resolution.

    I wonder if they could allow a little more (say 128kb) limit
    in transfer sum for the demo version. 16Kb is not enough to
    really test its abilities. You have to stopwatch it on offline
    loaded HTML pages to get the idea about WWW/LX speeds.

    BTW, does one know, when will be the NETWORK aware version out?
    I bet it would be the fastest graphical browser ever, Stefan
    Peichl's LxPic was a great addition.

    The only alternative DOS graphics browser is Arachne (has beta CGA
    driver), but that is one of the slowest things in Universe! It
    uses an external JPG/GIF/PCX-->BMP converter for graphics, a real
    pain. But it has frames/HTML4.0/etc.; just doesn't run it on
    any pre-386! It will run (crawl) and build the display of nice
    HTML pages in 15-30 minutes on a 286/16Mhz...

    It became a nice, solid browser, never crashed on that 286. Early
    versions were prone to hanging the PC, it's been cured with v1.40.

    I have tried to explain benefits of an LxPic-like inline display
    engine, but they insisted that it couldn't scroll smoothly 8-(.
    Seems like the XChaos group really believes in the existance of
    of diehard DOS users with P2Xeon/450MHz on their desks. They will
    also port Arachne to Linux. One tell 'em about ELKS/Linux-8086...

    BTW2, I have heard a rumor, that early version of the infamous
    Opera browser ran on M$ Win3.0. I wonder if that was Real Mode.
    That could be an alternative for the 18MHz, 32MB, BigFlash ones.

            Sincerely Yours:
                                Tamas Feher.

Hello

I looked and looked and looked everywhere for a Db9 <-> Db25 serial converter
because I want to connect my 200 Lx to a pocket modem which has a 25 pin female
connector.

Furthermore the serial cable that connects to the Palmtop is a female Db9
connector and I really tried to get a converter but did not work.

I phoned to at least 4 HP resellers and HP themselves to order the connectivity
kits (F1023A partnumber) and they told me I had to wait at least 2 weeks if not
more ...

I just cannot wait, I'll have to resort to make the connector myself, can a
kind soul help me out ?

pulleeeeeeese ??

Many thanks in advance

Hello,

I4d like to know if someone could help me, cause I would
like to access the web with my HP200LX palmtop, and
I don4t know which kind of modem and program should I use
to accomplish this.
If you know any program (most likely written in C++ or Clipper)
would you mind telling me?, I would be very thankful.

sincerely yours

Federico Restrepo

Subject:      Word 5.5 graphic mode on 200LX?
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Well, I've located Word 5.5 and installed in on my 200LX (to replace 5.0
which will blow up in the Year 2000). Unfortunately, I can't get it to run
in graphics mode, to see font attributes and print previews.

When I choose any of the listed graphics modes via
View/Preferences/Display, I get a beep and an error message to the effect
that "Word cannot switch to graphics mode." This was possible in 5.0, so
I'm assuming it is my ignorance that is the problem here. 8-(

I suspect I need to do some sort of set-up routine using MAKEVID.EXE to
modify my SCREEN.VID, but I have no manuals, there are no .DOC files, and
trial and error doesn't seem to be doing it for me.

So, once again, I throw myself on the generosity of the people on this
list... can someone please send me a Word 5.5 SCREEN.VID suitable for the
200LX (no, the one from ver. 5.0 won't work) or instruct me on how to make
my own?

Thanks in advance, all.

Wow ! thanks :-)

Now that page tells the pinout, but how do I connect each pin to eachother ?

Are there any additional conventions besides the RX/TX and CTS/RTS that I have
to follow ?
Does the "00 lx have any particularity ?

Hoping to hear from you

Thanks again !

Buycomp.com has them $184, but I wanted to give you an opportunity to beat
their price. Sorry for mailing to the list, but I don't have your individual

Did you ever get it working properly? What was the solution to your
problems? Might help someone else out. I might be interested in the
200LX but I can only afford to offer you 135. Might be more worthwhile
to post it on the Ebay auction or something like that if you can't get a
buyer here. Ebay is a great sellers market.

Yes. The buffer must be in the modem. I did not think about that. I tried =
to
connect with WWW/LX and before switching to Data Comm I just removed
the DC23 (without turning the hp200lx off).
There was no responce as before.

Hi, Brian:

I don't actually have 40MB cards, as ours are 48MB. I also believe that
Buycomp will charge you about $10 for shipping, and our prices include shipping. You'll also have to pay sales tax.

I'll do $194 including shipping and no sales tax for a CF48 with PC Card adapter, which should be the same as Buycomp but a larger card.

Let me know if interested.

Greetings,

FWIW I'm using NetTamer and a Creative Modem Blaster 14.4 PCMCIA as my
setup. The modem is a little slow, there are faster that others are
happy with, but it was cheap($15us) and is just fine for mail, newsgroups
text web browsing(does have capability for inline GIFs) and has low
power requirements. WWW/LX is an impressive web browner but
my main ISP won't work with it.It did work with a different ISP and you
can try before you buy. There are other options such as Goin Postal and
freeware setups, but I'm not familiar with those. I guess the first
thing is to find a modem and then try some packages to see which fit
your needs. You will _love_ the portability.

Good Luck,

Paul

How would anyone compare it to Diet 1.44 (my current sfx'er)?

ie speed of compression, uncompression, compression rate, size in memory,
size out of memory... etc etc.

Thanks.

Hey List;
If there are any of you out there with not enough
storge space and want to stretch your C: drive
storage space, unless you already have 32MB. There
is a nifty pgm on SUPER called tinyprog that will
shrink many of your EXE and COM pgms to 50% of its
present size. Tinyprog is a one time (50%) pgm
shrinker.  It just shrinks your prg, forever.
Sorta takes out all the air.

That could increase your C: drive by a couple hundred
KBs or more depending on how many EXE/COMs you got.

PKZIP compresses yor pgms to save space but
when yu wanna use it yu gotta hydrate it.

Yor mem is whatever it wuz before.

This is a pcmcia rom card.  It works with the HP 95, 100, 200 and 700LX
palmtop computer.  It is never used, and comes complete in the original
box.  The part number is "HP F1005A".

The American Heritage Electronic Dictionary has 116,000 words and word
forms. The Houghton Mifflin Electronic Thesaurus has over 500,000 synonyms.
There is also a spell checker. The dictionary, thesaurus, and spell checker
are integrated.
Also included is the game "Hangman"

The price is the best offer above $55. It will be shipped USPS 3day.
I will guarantee it against DOA.

I will also consider trading for a Wetsuit 4.0 or a wireless adapter for my

I think diet is different, tho I never used it - I used stacker 3.0 until =
I
decided I didn't want the driver taking up space.

TINYPROG turns exe's and com's into compressed files that self-extract at
runtime, then re-squish when the programme terminates. Seems to be =
entirely
transparent on the things I've used it on. It doesnt work one everything,
but it works so well on what it works on that is quite worthy.

It works under palrun. Setup seems to want the modem on com2, though,
thinking it to be the PCMCIA slot.

AFAIK, both HV and the POST programs that are part of the WWW/LX Plus
package are PALRUN-aware and when PALRUN is in the 640x480 VGA mode
they will use the whole screen.

The one that matters is file size before vs after compression.
I use Diet 1.44 too, and get about 50% on the avg.

Diet and tinyprog are similar, and are different than stacker. Stacker uses
a driver that works to compress the harddrive itself while the other two
work on program files specifically. You will benefit from diet or tinyprog
even if you also use stacker.

AKA compression rate.
> I use Diet 1.44 too, and get about 50% on the avg.

I am also very interested in the SPEED OF COMPRESSION
- 50% compression is great; but not if my hp200lx gets a half-speed or
quarter-speed downgrade! (wincegrade)

For example, my C compiler is around 500K. How long would that take to
compress?  OK, OK, I guess I can go and try it out myself -- but a
rough indication of others' experiences would would be very nice :)


BTW I tried the compression routine built into the ROM - it is
+hideously+ slow! (sorry, forgotten the name - but on D: somewhere
if anyone wants to have a go).

The file is only compressed once ( when it is written to the filesystem ).
After that it is only decompressed ( load/execute).  The speed of
decompression is directly related to the processor clock.  If you install
the double speed option, you should be in great shape.

Remember, this is running on a 7.?? Mhz 8088/8086 class machine, not a

Yeah, that's what diet does too, and it even does data files with mixed
success if you load it resident. I'll give it a try though.

I am a confirmed gadget freak and just last night added to my arsenal.
Sony has a line of very small digital voice recorders that are
extremely handy for impromptu notes while performing some activity
that is not conducive to palmtopping. The model I bought is the ICD-30
($100 at Best Buy) and offers up to 16 minutes of recording into 2
separate files which hold 99 messages each. It's about the size of a
pager, but thinner. The next model up is the ICD-70 and it even has
connectivity softare to transfer your voice files to your computer!
(Could be an opportunity for a creative soul to do connectivity
software for the 200LX.) So if you are tired of waiting for someone
to build the little device detailed in voice.zip on SUPER, you might
want to give this a look.

Diet compression on the HP200LX (no 2x speed):

   diet -x <one of my files>.exe

took 1 min. 10 sec. (faster on the desktop)

original file size: 175,966 bytes
  dieted file size:  76,070 bytes

Haven't tried tinyprog.

The screen is shifted about one character to the right, with garbage on the
narrow vertical strip on the left, losing the narrow portion on the right.
Otherwise, 95% of the screen is perfectly readable and looks pretty much
normal.

Perhaps my machine is different..

Xcuse me if I am off Topic.

But I believe the answer lies in this group...

I know about GP and other solutions, but what is a GOOD (ie SIMPLE to

e-mail - to be used by Grand-ma to contact her grand children in the

Much appreciated

Unless Grandma is comfortable with a DOS text editor, that might be
the best approach.  I tried to help my dentist set up his mother with
a simple DOS computer for just such a situation, but it was too
complicated.  He instead bought her a FAX machine - he says she
talks so much it is cheaper for her to write things down and FAX
them back and forth...

No, I'm not sure. Fact is I never even tried. Manual says 286, and I just
assumed it was right.

Plus the barebones act! for dos is 3+ meg compared to Act! HP's tiny

Two issues:

1) Are Grand-ma's eyes up to reading the small fonts and contrast of the LX.

2) "Simple to use" is usually a phrase from the Windows camp. Is there a
reason why you're considering a DOS solution vs Windows?

FWIW, I use NetTamer and the built-in ccMail. The latter is the simpler of
the two, tho I don't know if that's an option from So. Africa. As for NT,
I've used it for over a year and still haven't figured it all out yet <g>.

Since you have a 386, you might try out Arachne.  Pretty cool DOS

The speed of compressing these files shouldn't be a major concern
because you only do it once.  Speed of decompression could be a concern
if it was noticably long.

Personally I use PKLITE if I use anything at all.

My suggestion would be PINE.  Our university uses it to provide email to
over 5000 students with no special computer knowledge.  The university
gave everyone a 20 minute lesson on the basics along with a one-page
quick-tips instruction booklet.  Very, very, very few people can't get it
to work and I understand it is virtually limitless in its configurability
according to skills of the user.  I think it was on the SUPER (lives up
to its name in spades) site.

My understanding is that PINE can run on virtually anything as far as
hardware goes.  Freeware too.

Why not set up the 386 as a DOS fax machine, I used
QuickLink II on a 286 machine for 6-7 months like
this.

I was in Perth Australia, my wife in Auckland NZ,
saved a fortune in phone bills, she faxed me at night
due to the 5 hour time difference I then replied in the
morning before going to work.

Alternatively go ans spend $90 with these guys
http://www.dasoft.com/WWW/wv2.html
for DOS internet access.

A bit off topic, but can you explain the history and difference between
pine and elm?  I started back in 94 using our new internet shell account,
and had opportunity to use both.  I settled on elm, as I found it easier
to use and liked it's looks better (personal opinion - no facts involved
here).  Lately, I hear a lot about pine, and very little about elm.  Is
elm dead?

<BACK ON TOPIC?> I downloaded a set of elm files that reportedly can
be run on the palmtop, but I haven't figured out the installation yet.
It seems to want to actually go fetch mail from a server, while I only
want it to browse archived mail folders stored in the UNIX elm/pine
format.  Anyone out there have elm running on the 200LX?

I havn't the foggiest about the differences.  I only know about pine
'cause the sysops on my shell accounts already had it set up.  I've
watched a bunch of computer-illiterate law students from ages 20 to 50
become pretty accomplished at using it with minimal coaching.  If elm is
easier, I'm impressed.

I would have to agree that a fax machine would be much easier.  An actual
stand-alone unit though - software fax software has always given me
trouble.

On topic (kind of), I've found the best way (for me) to handle email and
web-browsing with the 200lx to be finding a good ISP willing to set up a
shell account for you.  You get the power of a big, hefty server and your
wonderful little palmy is the terminal link.  I use this setup to browse,
manage multiple email accounts, setup websites and browse.  I have two
such accounts.  One through a university and this one has everything
setup on it.  I also found a local ISP who set up a shell account for an
initial $15 fee (lunch for the two sysops).  Unfortunately, neither have
toll-free numbers or national coverage but if your office sets you up
with a national ISP too (as does mine) you can always telnet.

Sounds clunky but takes no space on my (still) 2M machine.

I checked out sumantec's page, but it mentions nothing of infection via
email.  I'll reiterate that unless you open an executable attatchment, and
execute it, infection cannot happen.  Not from a text file.

I do the same. Works very well. Plus if one needs to come in from

Thanks, Owen! I guess that's ye ole speed/memory trade-off.
I imagine the decompression speed is similar (though some compression
schemes are organised for speed on the decompression side...)

A thought: Compression requires a bit of spare working-space, if
the compressed and uncompressed versions co-exist on disk... I
guess the trick of TINYPROG is uncompress directly into RAM, so
that only the compressed version is on disk.

But if you have more than one big file compressed, maybe the spare
space is justified by the room you save.. and you need only one
file unompressed at a time...

I would just like some input first.  After the initial 'gee whiz this is

ObMP: "The larch."

Elm is still around but I don't know if it's actively being maintained
anymore.  It was one of the early user-friendly mail user agents for
Un*x and I gather it was the inspiration not only for Pine (Pine Is
Not Elm) but also for something new called Mutt which is somewhat more
featureful.

For me, the important difference between Elm and Pine was (in 1994 or
so) that Elm did not allow me to suspend composing a message and come
back to it later.  Pine did, and I found that useful.

If it is a 386 then I think you should definitely install Win95 and have
her run Outlook.  That way, you can then give her a WinCE handheld PC and
she will appreciate the smaller size, but will find the speed about the
same...

Yes, this is how diet works too. It decompresses the exe into ram when you
run the exe. Decompression time at program launch is much less.
original file took 4 seconds to launch.
diet compressed file took 5 seconds to launch.

Everytime I get a new *.com or *.exe file on my HPLX, I try diet on it to
save some space. It doesn't work on all executables, probably because they
have already been compressed somehow.

Have a good day,

to try email with my standard HP200LX's (2MB)
built in ccmail.

I will use email only infrequently as I'm not a mobile worker
so speed isn't critical, 14.4 sounds about right for me.

I've seen alot of traffic about power draw
and the following comment in FAQ:
"The PCMCIA slot can only supply 150mA max,
so make sure your modem will take less than this.
Most 14.4 modems will work."

I've seen recommendations on list list for:
XJ1114
XJ2114
and the HPPP article mentions two others
XJ3114
Simple Technology 28.8

PS I don't think I have newsgroup access at work

Thanks for your help

Elm can do this for sure now, and I think even in 94.  Although there
appears to be some support for this feature from within elm itself, I
find it easiest to just save to a temporary file from within the editor
(I use vi), and recall it when I pick back up.

DR-DoS is now supposed to have internet stuff built in including a graphical

I read they have sold 3 million copies since 1997

It is on the net as a press release.  say 3 weeks ago.

It didn't say a text mode virus. The virus surpositly comes in an
attachment with a long file name. When your browser (whatever)
tries to process the file, gets tripped up by the invalid file name
and unravels. Don't you ever have unannounced BIN attachments
without explanations?   I do, all the time for one reason or another
but I get them to go through a trap door to be deleted.

                   If you did that I couldn't wear the hat, too long.

Nah. The trick is to have a long filename which is longer than 256 bytes.
The buffer overflows, and part of the code is overwritten. If you are
carefull enough, you might be able to overflow with something which doesn't
immediately crash the computer...

It is not a serious thing, and especially not of any concern for HP200LX
users.

I plan to use a HP200LX in the field in India.

Does anyone have any experience using a

I have used my 200LX daily for several years at a temperature of 30- 33
degrees Celcius and with a humidity of over 90%. Have occasionally used =
it at
teperatures above 40C. It works fine, even when the unit start to "drip" =
of
water when I moving in & out of aircon rooms.

Hi.
I've used Diet for >1 year now, and I have noticed that load times are
pretty much unchanged (subjectively) between compressed and uncompressed
files.  I think that the decompression time is compensated for by having a
smaller (often 50% smaller) file to load.

Note that I have a 2X speed machine, so that may make a difference.

Diet is also free for personal use.

Cheers.

I live in Rio de Janeiro/Brazil and we have quite high temperatures downhere at summer (~42C).

Until now no problems occurred with my HP200LX, in 3 years of intense use.

Here's another virus alert.  Maybe this is the one Al saw in the NYT.

http://www.ciac.org/ciac/bulletins/i-077a.shtml

The article includes a link for MS to get updates for Outlook and
Outlook Express.  It says that Netscape should have a patch by 8/7.  It
credits some students in Finland for finding the problem

I am new to this list, so if this has been a topic in the past, please
forgive me.
Has anyone developed a simple, intellisync style, untilty for synchronising
the 200lx and MS Outlook 98?  The Intellisync folks most certainly have the
the knowledge and expertise to do this, but I don't think they have the
interest.  I emailed them a request for this and got a ho hum, look at our
products for the palm pilot response.  I am interested in developing such a
utility if someone else hasen't already done so.  I have not desire to
re-invent the wheel, just get a useable sync tool for the 200lx and outlook
98.

How about not just a good, but a GREAT, and simple solution for email.
Use a QWK mail offline mail reader, and get an account on an Internet
connected BBS. The combination of BBS conference format and qwkmail
format beats the hell out of the so-called "Internet" mail programs.

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

Here's the revised version of the procedure for
zooming Info Select on the 200LX:

1. From the DOS prompt, enter dispctl -c +k.
(Dispctl is in d:\bin.)

2. Load Info Select.

3. Reduce the maximum number of windows:
A =3D Adjust
W =3D Windows
Arrow down (twice) to Max Windows
1 =3D New maximum
Esc to return to IS stack.

4. Use Fn-Space to zoom 200LX.

5. Use Menu-Arrows to position the screen to
the active window, which should be at the top left.

The active IS window should now remain at the
top left as you move through the stack, or add
and edit windows.

IS will retain its adjustment, but the 200LX will
lose both Dispctl and zoom settings if you
Exit the DOS prompt. When that occurs, you
must repeat all steps except number 3
(setting the maximum windows).

If you run IS from SysMgr, or from a temporary
DOS prompt, you can automate the repetition
with a batch file. The key commands in the file are:

<drive:>
cd<\path>
dispctl -c +k
is n
dispctl +c

Note: Replace <drive:> and <\path> with the
appropriate locations on your machine.

The batch file can be added as a SysMgr
application just as if it were IS itself:

Path <drive:\path\>is.bat | 270
Comments:?

Notes:
Replace <drive:\path\>is.bat with the location
  and name of your batch file.
You might wish to alter the memory =

  allocation (270).
The ? in Comments should be upside =

  down--use Fn+?.

Hi to you all, Following on from the discussions I've
seen on the list about digital cameras, has anyone been
able to hook up a QuickCam (Connectix) to their HP200LX.
I do have a parallel port card and can provide the power it
needs, so just need the driver.

Thanks

I've recently had a couple of problems with programs stored in RAM
(I have a 2x 6MB HP200LX). Yesterday, stacker refused to work upon
reboot. IT kept claiming a checksum error. I copied a new version
of stacker.com from a backup I keep for such problems and it then worked OK.

Then last night, Pocket Quicken ket dying with an Error -30, on my
qdata.pdt file. I was able to restore an earlier version of this file and
export/import missing transactions, so I am OK there.

But, it worries me that two problems have cropped up recently that I have
not seen in the past. I ran trcheck provided by Mack. IT found no problems
in chips 1,3,4 and reported everything OK. (Don't know if there is meant to
be chip 2 in this report).

I have run both f-prot-228b and scn-318e to check for viruses with nothing
found. Also ran chkdsk and ndd with no errors reported.

Has anyone seen similar behaviour, or have any suggestions. I don't use
EMS for anything, and there is nothing particularly special about my setup, at
least nothing that has changed recently.

Thanks in advance

I have been using all of the components (email, newsgroups, WWW,

most extensively on a daily basis. For complicated reasons (unrelated
to beta testing) I have six email accounts across three different ISPs
and access them all in one online run from the palmtop. I receive all
the mailing lists to which I am subscribed (both work and personal
topics) on the palmtop and make extensive use of the filtering
functions to automatically keep things under control. I have received up =
to
several hundred messages a day although traffic is lighter at the
moment!

In the interest of full disclosure I should point out that I am a beta
tester for the product not that Avi pays us :-) (Free copy of the
software excepted).

Heh heh... Which Owen? =)

One thing that I like about Diet is that you can compress straight data
with it, with fairly good results. I have a huge docs directory (on my poor
little 2mb 200lx) and if you run diet resident, most programs do okay at
reading them. (I use calvin.)

Besides, even if you don't want to run it resident, you can keep all your
data compressed until you need it and then run 'diet -ra' which restores it
to its original size. Kinda like zip/unzip, but good for more.

It *is* a serious thing, indeed. Remember the "Good Times" hoax, and how
everyone categorically denies that reading email can be dangerous to your
computer... well, this isn't quite so bad ("Good Times" is an intentional
hoax), but it is bad. One of the first rules you learn in a programming
class is the importance of error checking, but one of the first you learn
in real life is that folks seem more interested in making something work.

The email buffer overflow problem is a case of insufficient error
checking. The vulnerble programs have, as one might expect, a fixed
length of allocated memory to hold the suggested name for any attached
file that you might try to save. If you ask the app to save the
attachment, it blindly copies the suggested name into this bit of memory,
not bothering to make sure it's less than the 255 characters or so that
were allocated. The result, basically, is a window of opportunity in
which an attacker can make a too-long filename with special characters at
the end designed to run instructions on your computer, like Intel x86
assembler code, whatever the attacker wants to run.

Similar exploits are theoretically possible any time an email
application is processing "foreign data" (e.g. email from a stranger)
without sufficient error handling. E.G. if you're using an email app that
uses Internet Explorer DLL's to display HTML email and there's a bug in
the DLL's, then you may be vulnerable to something like the "Good Times
virus" (open an email and Bam! Something Bad happens) just by reading.

As for Eudora being "safe", it looks like that might *not* be true. See
http://www.geek-girl.com/bugtraq/1998_3/0327.html for more info -- while
it has not *proved* vulnerable, if the app had proper bounds checking it
would not crash.

The fact is that Netscape & Outlook were targeted because they're highly
visible and very popular programs. As far as we know, cc:Mail, NetTamer,
Goin' Postal, and Post/LX may all be vulnerable, too. Not many folks care
enough to test them, that's all. There's glory to be had in saving *lots*
of folks from trouble (Outlook users) but not for saving us. :) With Open
Source code like Palmtop News Reader, anybody can comb through looking
for unchecked strcpy() and the like, but for commercial binary-only apps,
you're at the mercy of the publisher to fix it before some vicious person
abuses the problem. If it weren't for security mailing lists like bugtraq
and NTbugtraq many probably wouldn't bother.

I'm starting to think that *all* Internet apps should (probably all apps)
should make it *very* easy to check over the network to see if there are
any known problems in the version you have and offer updates.

The vulnerable to attack part comes from the fact that the buffer in
question is a stack based buffer, and therefore a return address can be
over-written. That's where someone very clever could cause problems.
Although I believe the major place open to attack, would be to use the
address of the 'double-click'/'activate attachment' routine. Which means
the attachment would have to do the real work.

I guess you could find a routine, like 'delete folder' or something to run,
but that's not as damaging as 'execute attachment'.

Internet Explorer 4.0 had a similar problem with one of it's 'special' types,
whereby a URL too long could do the same.

I received an email from the writer of the package I use (Pegasus Mail)
the same day as the release where he states that PMail is not vulnerable
to this, either as a crash, or as an attack. He *did* find a crashing bug in
handling badly formed MIME attachments though.

You are right in one respect, any application that processes anything
(files/email/web pages, etc) has the potential to crash. But it's the sheer
number of users of the net and the kind of quantities in which
applications are used nowadays, that allows the malicious ones to ply
their 'trade', and have a chance of succeeding.

I'd like to see you get funding for that!!


And just to keep it on topic, it could even happen to something like Filer
in the 1/200LX's. If there was a similar bug in the handling of, say, long
lines in F8 view, then something malicious could 'get in' to your LX.

I traded for a complete 200LX setup last night and ended up with some duplicate
accessories that others may need. Here's what I have:

* Zoom 14.4 Pocket Modem - $125

Includes custom 11-1/2" serial cable for the 200LX. Runs on a 9V battery. One
of the best pocket modems ever made and very hard to find these days.

http://www.palmtop.net/img/skytel2.jpg

* HP F-1011A AC Adapter - $20

* HP F-1021B Connectivity Pack - $50

Includes a F-1015A serial cable, 4 adapters for various connections and the DOS
connectivity software

* Ripoff belt case - $10

http://w3.one.net/~hamm/img/ripoff.jpg

* Skytel 2-Way Pager Case - $20

This is a nice case that Skytel supplied with their connectivity kit for the
200LX and the first 2-way Tango pagers. It is some kind of padded leatherette
material and has a small pocket for papers, a business card window, a pen
holder, a velcroed cable compartment and has velcro hook sewn into the inside.

Please add shipping to all prices and (of course) email any responses directly
to me and not to the list.

Thanks!

David,

If your problem is related to bad RAM chips, it should come out in the RAM
test. Run the extensive RAM chip test built in in the BIOS (ESC-ON, and the
go to RAM TEST and press CTRL-ENTER for the harder RAM test).

No. Each chip is 2MB, for a total of 6MB. The 200LX has two /RAS lines
(equivalent to chip selects) for ram chips on the mainboard (/RAS0 and
/RAS1), and another two for ram chips on the expansion board (/RAS2 and
/RAS3).

- 1MB machines use /RAS0 and /RAS1 driving two 512KB chips.

- Old 2MB machines use all four /RAS lines driving four 512KB chips, two on
the mainboard and two on the expansion board.

- Rest of 2MB machines use /RAS0 to drive a single 2MB chip. /RAS1 is
unused (and is not available in the expansion connector).

- 4MB machines are just 2MB machines with a 2MB expansion board. They use
/RAS0 for the 2MB chip on the mainboard and /RAS2 for the 2MB on the
expansion board.

- 5MB machines are 1MB machines with a 4MB expansion board, consisting in
two 2MB chips driven by /RAS2 and /RAS3. Note that in old 2MB machines the
1MB expansion board will be replaced by the 4MB one, for a total of 5MB
instead of 6MB (you end up with a spare 1MB expansion board).

- 6MB machines are newer 2MB machines with a 4MB expansion board.

- 8MB machines are newer 2MB machines with a 6MB expansion board,
consisting in three 2MB chips, two of them driven by /RAS2 and /RAS3 just
like in the 4MB expansion board, and the third driven by /RAS1 line, which
not being available in the expansion connector, has to be wired from the
expansion board to the Hornet IC. This is why 6MB upgrades are sold only
installed, because it's not a matter of plug-in and go, but alse requires
some tricky soldering.

And now for the newest:

- 8MB machines (Terra Network japanese upgrades) are whatever machines,
with the mainboard memory removed, and all four /RAS lines driving a single
8MB chip with some glue logic.

- 32MB machines (Terra Network japanese upgrades) are whatever machines,
with the mainboard memory removed, and all four /RAS lines driving four 8MB
chips with some glue logic.

- 33MB/34MB machines (T2T and otheres upgrades) are 1MB/2MB machines with a
32MB chip in the expansion board driven by /RAS3. Note that this 32MB chip
is really composed of four 8MB chips each one providing 4 bits of the total
16 bit datapath width.

Actually, I know for sure that 65MB/66MB (for 1MB/2MB machines
respectively) have been achieved using special chips from Hitachi (which
each has two 8MB chips grouped together in a single housing!).

8MB chips are 64Mbit DRAMs. When 256Mbit DRAMs are available (32MB), a
128MB HP200LX *IS* possible. Doing this upgrade would require removing the
mainboard ram chips (or at least disabling them by driving its /RAS pin
high permanently). Also, as far as I know, the built-in BIOS C: drive
device driver will recognize and support 32MB in /RAS0, which would be
required in order to boot from somewhere (but A:) and then load device
drivers in order to support rest of the 128MB as a single or multiple drives.

Regards. Nacho.

Morning people,

What I don't like about ZIPers is that
yu gotta have the ZIPer and do it when
yu need it, No?

Tinyprog is a one shot deal. Do it and forget it.
Yu don't gotta even have the pgm after zpping it.
It works everywhere, LX, desktop, laptop, all over.

...and about compressing data files, if yu gotta
decompress before yu use them, its a hassle.

I need help with two problems, please.

I was copying files from identically named subdirectories between c: and a:
(\first). I needed to copy from an SRAM card to the c: and then to a Flash.
There were several files named first (with various extensions). Several of the
first.* files were not copied each time I used the copy *.* command. When I
changed the name of the subdirectory on c: to c:\fchoice all files were
copied.

Is that weird or what?

I installed my Trans PC Parallel card then tried to install my PacRim floppy
on the 200XL. When I ran the driver (pacrim.exe) I got the Divide Error
message and had to reboot. Has anyone tried to use a PacRim floppy on the
200LX?

Whew!

Thanks for any and all help

here's a few examples:

with lots of files compressed this could save a large chunk of diskspace.

Subject:      Cool palmtop stuff for sale!
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Hello.
OK, I bought some new toys (big flash card and a Palm Pilot -- Just for
fun!! :) ) and I need to pay for them.  Here's some stuff which I think
will be of interest to you:

Infotel 14.4K pocket modem.  Does not tie up the PC card slot or drain the
palmtop batteries.  Uses a 9V battery or the included AC adapter.  You do
need the palmtop serial cable and a null modem adapter to hook it up.
This unit is basically new with all included parts, manual, box; only used
once to determine that for unknown reasons it doesn't work with my 200LX.
Don't worry, I had the same problem with another unit of this same modem,
and that modem worked fine in someone else's 200LX.  Money back guarantee
if it doesn't work with your 100/200LX.  $45

Apex Data Mobile Plus 33.6K cellular/landline PCMCIA modem.
This is one of a very small number (only 2 that I know of) of 33.6K modems
which will work in our palmtops due to relatively low current draw.  I'd
still recommend using an AC adapter, however, with ANY PC card modem.
I'm guessing you wouldn't be able to run it very long on batteries.  This
modem is labeled "v.34 28.8K" but has been flash-upgraded to 33.6 with
software from Apex's web site.  Includes card, cable, manual. $75.  I have
2 of these.

Quicken v 7.0 for DOS.  This is the next-to-last DOS version of Quicken.
It will run fine on an LX.  Just the original 3.5" disks; no manuals.  $5

Serial-Parallel convertor (non-portable).  This will let you print to
printers lacking a serial port.  Because it requires an AC adapter
(included) and is about as big as the LX itself, it's best used as a
permanent attachment to a printer or kept nearby for occasional use.
Worked great with my LX and a Panasonic (Epson-compat.) dot matrix
printer.  Includes original box and manual.  $10

Prices do not include shipping.

Thanks for reading.

Curtis Cameron has updated his Freecell game for the LX.  Version 2.4
is available on his web site:  http://members.aol.com/freewhl44/lxgames.ht=

The new version corrects stats display problem with games played over =
250.
It also adds a number to a game so you can replay particular games or =

others so they can try them.

Cheers...

Doug,
If you're running a single speed LX then don't bother looking for
anything faster than 14400.  The cc:Mail app won't let you set a
faster speed in its setup anyway.

I bought a used XJ1114 for $25 recently so you can get going for
relatively little $$$.

setting a daily appointment as follows "|\path\lxbackup.exe".  It gets
stuck wanting RETURN keys to get through menus.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.  In addition, can you specify
different configuration files?

Thanks,
Jeff

Howdy, howdy, TGIF

An another weekend, well, not exactly...
Two major discussions this week were:
1. email virus from the NY Times
2. TINYPROG, hope everyone learned a wee,
even if only by osmosis.

...and to close the weekend down is no surprise
that we now have a small doodad to squander $500
smackeroos on. Yep, a 64 MB LX.  For those of
us who haven't squandered $500 smackeroos on 32MBs
recently. We can still do so before the end of
the summer.  Xmas in JUL, Aug, whatever....

Enjoy the weekend, that's all folks.

Semper Mobilis,

Actually, I believe we'll be squandering more like $800 on the 64MB LX.

1. download the printer driver "dj346en.exe" from the HP website,
http://www.hp.com

2. install the driver for com1: (that is the default)

3. use the included utility "jetutuil" to enable the driver

4. make sure that the power to the com port is on

5. use the command "serctl /i" to setup the IR port

6. if you are printing from the DOS prompt and/or from DOS
programs that are set to print from the lpt1: port then use the
command "mode lpt1:=com1:"

enjoy

Gary - I wonder if you could advise me. I am trying to set up the demo
version of WWWLX, with a view to registering. However, when I called my ISP
tech support about their script, all they could say was: "SCRIPT? Windows 95
does not require any scripts, and you cannot connect in DOS..."

How does one figure out the proper script for WWW-LX dialer?

I have been using all of the components (email, newsgroups, WWW,
telnet, robot) since the products inception. I use the email portion
most extensively on a daily basis. For complicated reasons (unrelated
to beta testing) I have six email accounts across three different ISPs
and access them all in one online run from the palmtop. I receive all
the mailing lists to which I am subscribed (both work and personal
topics) on the palmtop and make extensive use of the filtering
functions to automatically keep things under control. I have received up to
several hundred messages a day although traffic is lighter at the
moment!

In the interest of full disclosure I should point out that I am a beta
tester for the product not that Avi pays us :-) (Free copy of the
software excepted).

I would probably try dialing up your ISP with a terminal program (i.e.
Datacomm on the 200LX, or HyperTerminal in Win95, or any of the ilk) and
see what happens.  If you're lucky, it will be a simple login: and
password: prompt which then drops to PPP.
