I suggest you go ahead and read Sylvain's Compendium, either the html or pdf version as the contents are the same, it's just the links that need to be updated.

You may also find it useful and fun to configure HP-IL in Emu71, then ILPer or pyILPER can be used for virtual peripherals like a printer, mass mem, plotter, etc.

hi Dave,
yes, I've already installed HP-IL as suggested in the Compendium (I've the HP-IL also in the real HP71b)...

So, for Forth 1A, isn't a way to revert to Basic without reset?
Forth assembler maybe it is "simple" but it works, enough well.

I'm still reading the Compendium, there are a lot of fun to read...

Use BYE with 1A.

So you have an HP-IL module for your 71B. The next thing is the PIL-Box, Jean-Francois Garnier's HP-IL to USB converter. This will allow you to connect your physical 71B to the ILPer virtual peripherals or the 71 emulators to physical peripherals.

This is also the means to access the MoHPC and OLDP LIF archives with your physical 71B.

Alternatively, you can configure Emu71 with the 41 Translator ROM.
