HP-71B & PILBox & Remote Terminal

[dmh]

Hi, just wondering if you/anyone worked out which HP 75 LEX has KEYBOARD IS in it as I haven't found it yet?

Thanks, dmh

I have not tried it, but it appears to be a likely candidate. No idea if this includes the KEYBOARD IS keyword, but 512 bytes appears large enough to include more than a single Fn.

The HELP LEX file (about 2/3 the way down the article) is the go-to tool to see which keywords are in a given LEX file, described in this helpful thread:

The HELP LEX file can be found in the OLDP SWAP/HPCC88 volume.

While searching for and verifying LEX files, etc. it is quite handy to use JFG's emu75/DOS (run on DOSBox) together with ILPer (via ILPilBox virtual connector). It takes a fair amount of fiddling to get it all setup initially, but once working, it's dead reliable and involves a lot less thrashing.
