How to copy and install programs in HP 50G?

[anhnha]

Hi,
I am new to HP 50G and I just saw that there are lots of HP 49/50 Electrical Engineering Programs available here.

I tried to download some of them but I couldn't figure out how to make it work.
For example, I downloaded a program called "amplifier" and extracted it. All of these files come with hpe extension.
Then I copied them to SD and to home directory after that.
However, it didn't work.
Also there are some programs about resistor color code. Where should I copy these programs and make it work with HP 50G?

Welcome along. It's always nice to see a new face here every so often.

It appears that the files ending in .hpe are files for use with HPUserEdit, a free HP program editor. I downloaded (and installed) HPUserEdit (I can't quite remember the site offhand), opened up one of those .hpe files in HPUserEdit, and the source turns up in an editing window. You can then save this to the calculator directly (File->Send To Calculator), or export it as a more standard .hp file which you can then copy to the SD card.

Many thanks to the author of hpuseredit, although he is not anymore active, it seems.

Thank you very much.

I've just downloaded the software. I will try to see if I can make it work!
