DRAW-LX
Version 1.5 · Steve Novosad
Description
DRAW-LX.EXE is a small program to draw PCX pictures on the HP 200LX's CGA display. It can draw points, lines or arrows, boxes or rectangles, curves, and alphanumeric text. See the help screens for usage in each mode. The code is not overly dependent on the 200LX and the program should run on any PC/XT compatible computer with a CGA display.

Send to my palmtop
The palmtop must be waiting before you press the button, or the transfer will fail. It is the palmtop that announces it is ready, not the other way round.
Your browser cannot talk to the serial port. Direct sending uses the Web Serial API, which only exists in Chrome, Edge and Opera on desktop — not in Firefox, Safari or any mobile browser.
Download the file with the button above and copy it to the palmtop your usual way.
