I downloaded the 1001 version and installed it on my Windows 7 partition, and it does indeed come up on the screen. I can type some numbers on the numpad and Enter, and operators like * + - /, but when I try to use the mouse to click on the graphical representation of the HP-50G keyboard next to the display window nothing happens.

As far as I remember, they should not "click". I use the real pc keyboard (of which the mapping is not yet well documented but it is ok).

In practice you have the commands reachable by letter (for example pressing 'y' is like pressing '1/x' unless alpha is activated and then 'y' shows) Then you have the numbers that are like 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 on the keyboard. The dot is dot. Space is space. Enter is enter. *,-,+ should be equal on the keyboard (I do not remember correctly) while division is 'z'.

alpha, right and left shift should be shift, ctrl, tab or a combination of those.

Unfortunately the newrpl desktop version now does not run anymore on XP so I cannot test on my thinclient and I am lazy to open win10pro.
