HP 110 Portable Plus Lattice C

[Michael Fehlhammer]

I would like to acquire the Lattice C disks for the HP 110 Plus;
a copy would do as well. Of course a manual would be nice, but there is a download source, so it's not mandatory.
By the way: I am interested in other software or hardware ( like the Ram Drawer ) for that laptop as well.

Hello, did you get an answer?
I am also interested in the Lattice C Compiler.
thank you

I believe the Lattice C disks have proven to be elusive. However,

Lattice C Personal 1.0(J) can be found here.
The Small C Interpreter is on the Portable Paper 1988 Subscriber's Disk.

Is this something specific to the 110 or will any copy of Lattice C for DOS work?

[Dave Frederickson]

The HP Portables aren't 100% DOS compatible, so some programs run and some don't. Lattice C Compiler 45452D is the product that is compatible with the Portable PLUS.

Ed. According to the Nov-Dec 1988 issue of the Portable Paper, Turbo C 1.5 runs well on the Portable PLUS.

I probably have a regular DOS version around somewhere. A few years ago I went on a DOS software collecting spree.

If anybody wants it badly enough to try to test it or possibly fix it let me know and I'll go looking.

Some releases of Turbo C were available on Borland's museum for free since they're so old. I got a bunch of those also. I do not know which versions. I had a disk problem and lost a lot of what I had found but there should still be quite a bit left.

Here's the link to Borland. It looks like it's still up.

By the way AFAIK you do not need product codes or licenses for any of the freebies Borland/Embarcadero is giving away. The download notes say you need to get a registration code but someone from Borland (back then when they first put this stuff up for grabs) noted that isn't correct and everything will work without a license code.

I'll take you up on the offer. Thanks.

Here you go.

Thank you Massimo and Dave for your hints and help concerning TC 1.5 and the Portable Plus!
@ Ordins: Unfortunately no good news about Lattice C for the PP.

I wonder if Microsoft C v1.0 & 2.0 compilers released in 1983/84 would also run on the HP-110/110+.
Those versions were based on the lattice C compiler.

Why not give it a try?
