HP 200LX CPACK

[Bill (Smithville NJ)]

Quote:I've found that CPACK runs fine under DOSBOX on Windows XP/7/8 and runs under DOSBOX on Android too. However unless you have an external keyboard it's nearly impossible to use on a smartphone or tablet.

I have played around with running CPACK200 on an Android tablet in DOSBOX. The biggest problem is getting a "soft" keyboard to work with it. I have used "Hacker Keyboard" which has all the function keys and other special keys required for normal PC use. While it does work, I've had problems getting the CPACK to recognize the ALT key, which makes getting into menus difficult. I may have a setting wrong - either in dosbox or the keyboard setup.

I just tried with a Bluetooth keyboard and have same problem with it recognizing the ALT key.

I need to go over the setting to find out why ALT doesn't work.
