I simply say stty rows 16 ; stty cols 40 to my unix box, with the TERM still
remaining xterm or vt100. Works fine. Vi looks interesting, works fine,
less is OK too, but more comfortable with -c.

One problem is after a ESC-[-H sequence, usually when less starts painting
the screen from the top, subsequent scrolls show phantom characters 
as the screen scrolls. This is another horrid bug to add to ed falk's list.

SO when you quit from less, and hit a few carriage returns you see chars that
had come on the screen long ago scroll up from the dead. A clear(1)
(ESC-[H ESC-[J) fixes that. Evidently a vt100 and ANSI emulation bug.

Wish also that they had the cursor keys behave like cursor keys in 
COMM too ... sending the ESC-[A etc. sequences, and ALT-cursor doing the
scrolling. Very confusing since it is not consistent with the way the
DOS screen ALT-arrow behaves. Also I miss the cursor keys.

Hey ... and why not a cut and paste in COMM too ... !! I sorely 
miss that. (Of course, paste is missing in Phone as well Buddy fixes
it, but cant write a CHAR-macro to use that fix).

My 3100 is very nice -- readable, typeable, etc.  However, The LCD
broke after being carelessly packed in a suitcase.  Conclusion: it is
reasonably rugged but not indestructible.  Sharp is fixing it -- for
about $300.00, and taking forever to do it.

The prices of the 95lx has dropped quite a lot.  I am thinking of getting
one, the 512K model.  The IR95 program seems very useful.

However I am not quite sure if a new model is coming out quite soon.  There
have been a lot of talk of a new model with the Kittyhawk 20 MB hard disk.

Does anyone have any info on the dates?

There is another new Sharp WITHOUT the touch screen and only

One of the reasons I'm selling my PC-3000 is that the PCMIA RAM cartridges

Hi,

  Wanting to map some key across on the HP 95LX keyboard, I picked
up kbd95, and began figuring out the raw scan codes to patch.

  Thats when I found some combinations that baffle me. Am I missing
something here ? Or is the low level keyboard interrupt OB truly truly
a mind reader and distinguish between two keys with the same shifted
raw scan code !!

  I append below the scancodes in question. Note that the
  SCANCODE-Shifted is the same for each pair of lines, but magically
the CHARACTER CODES-Shifted manages to obtain a distinguishing AL.

  An example, (not what I wanted to map, but this is more illustrative)
If I wanted to swap ~ and ` ... what should I enter into keytbl ?

If anyone knows ... I'd be very grateful.

Since the HP-95LX has a PCMCIA 1.0 slot, no standard PCMCIA 2.0 modem
(or any other devices) will work in it.  However, New Media has a
special PCMCIA modem for the 95.  It uses a proprietary interface and

software.  I suspect that it doesn't.

I find the serial port does drain batteries much quicker, but with the AC

    I use the 95 to log onto UNIX boxes at home and at work and I run full
    screen applications like trn (news reader) and vi.

    Since the UNIXs that I use are system V based, I use terminfo files rather
    than termcap files.  All I did was copy the vt100 terminfo entry to 
    hp95lx.ti, change the line length to 40 (cols#40), changed the number
    of lines per screen to 16 (lines#16), and recompiled the entry with tic.
    I can send you the terminfo entry if it would help.

Hm?  Didn't they just release a new palmtop with a chording keyboard (the
"Agenda" I think it was) ??  Odd that they'd suddenly go into liquidation.
Or is the Agenda not that new?

The chording keyboard was a good idea, but:

	- The old Microwriter was big (the size of a hardcover), the keys
	  clicked, and it had keybounce problems.  it also had a display
	  of one line.

	- The "Agenda" is very small and has a silent keyboard, but the
	  display is once again too small and I don't think its features
	  stack up to one of the good palmtops.  Besides, you can actually
	  type reasonably comfortably on things like the Psion, Sharp, etc.

can't guarantee anything.
