How to install it

What to send to the palmtop

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

  • TEXT2BAT.BAT → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 2.1 KB
  • TXT2COM.COM → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 3.7 KB
Steps
  1. Copy TEXT2BAT.BAT, TXT2COM.COM to A:\SOFT. They are DOS programs: run them from the DOS icon, or add A:\SOFT to the PATH in C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT to call them by name.

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.
