APCALC for 95LX

These are the files you need. You can send them from the package contents below.

• APCALC.EXM → A:\SOFT aplicación del System Manager 14.3 KB

No need to put APCALC.DOC, APNAME.LST: they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 12.3 KB on a 1 MB disk.

1. Copy APCALC.EXM to A:\SOFT. It is a System Manager application: register it in App Manager with F2 (Add), giving the full path (for example A:\SOFT\APCALC.EXM).
2. The 200LX takes 8 EXM applications at most. Check with F8 (List) in App Manager: an asterisk in the Status column means the quota is full and you will need MoreEXM.

Derived from the package contents and the 200LX conventions. It installs to A: on purpose: C: is a RAM disk and every byte there is memory taken from the system.

GETTING STARTED
     Unlike normal DOS programs, this
 calculator is not invoked from the
 command prompt.  Instead, you assign a
 key; when this key is hit the
 calculator starts.  Like the builtin
 applications, you can suspend the
 operation of the calculator and invoke
 another of the resident applications,
 and return to the calculator at the
 same place you left it.    To assign a
 key to the calculator, you must add an
 entry to the file called
 C:\_DAT\apname.lst.  If this file
 does not exist, it must be created.
 (A sample apname.lst file is enclosed
 in this archive.).  The entry for the
 calculator would be something like:

 C:APCalc.exm,c300,APCalc

 This assigns the ALT-HPCALC key to the
 programmer's calculator.  Important
 Note:  you MUST reboot the HP 95 after
 making any changes to the apname.lst
 file for those changes to take
 effect.  When the calculator starts,
 it displays a simple help screen. This
 screen can also be displayed at any
 time by pressing the F1 key.  The
 calculator is then set up as it was
 when you last used it.  (the = key is
 useful to clear the help screen
 without disturbing anything on the
 CALCLINE).

 F1      displays the help screen
 F2      shifts RIGHT the first number
         entered by the second number,
         in powers of two.
 F3      shifts LEFT the first number
         entered by the second number,
         in powers of two.
 F4      ANDs the first number with the
         second number.
 F5      ORs the first number with the
         second number.
 F6      EXCLUSIVE ORs the first number
         with the second number.
 F7      Stores the result in memory.
 F8      Recalls the memory into the
         current display.
 F9      Adds the result with the
 number
         stored in memory and saves it
