The author's instructions
Installing the program: First you need the main program
LXPIC. You can download it for example from S.U.P.E.R. Then
you can unzip (you probably already have) my tiny *.zip
files, create a directory for each group of them and copy
the icons to the associated directory. Now you should refer
the user's guide of the LXPIC for information how to use
LXPIC. Of course you can use the LXPIC from the command
line in dos but I personally feel it convenient to add it
to the Application Manager of the Palmtop. You can add a
new item for different videos by using the same main
program LXPIC and giving the arguments of the associated
videos. For example you can write the following string to
the Application Managers path line:
c:\lxpic\lxpic.com c:\locom\locom??.icn|70 or
c:\lxpic\lxpic.com c:\engine\engine??.icn|70.

Please, refer to the Palmtop user's manual for details how
to add a new program to the Application Manager. After
executing the program you see the object in the screen in
its original size. You start running the object by pressing
the letter V. You adjust the size of the picture by
pressing the button + or -. For more details, please, refer
the user's guide or the Help of LXPIC.

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.
