How to get this Program to your Calculator (via
HP-IL, disk, wand, and fingers)
Download Binary (.raw) program for disk or PC HP-IL
Card download
Download Hexadecimal (.dat) program for Serial Port
download
Download Data Set (.d41) See Note under Data
Sets(below.)
Data Set
Currently, we know how to transfer the .d41 files to an HP-4C1 with Tony
Duell's LIF Utilities for
linux. Other users can enter the register listings below by hand. If
you determine how DOS users can transfer these files, please let me know.
The data should be saved to a magnetic card. You start the program with XEQ
"MCHESS" and then insert the card (2 tracks) when the calculator displays
"CARD"
RR037 - RR049 contain the BLDSPEC characters used to represent the pieces.
If you do not have a printer (and hence don't have the BLDSPEC command),
load any ALPHA data into these registers. The program requires ALPHA data
here to work properly (even if it's not printing).
