HP-75 Docs



#4

I'm trying to write a filter to convert HP-75 BASIC files directly into text. (Sort of an external TRANSFORM INTO TEXT command.) While a certain amount of reverse engineering of the file format and BASIC tokenisation is fun, a lot of it is pretty tedious. I was reading CHHU V1N2, and came across an article by Michael Markov entitled "Synthetic Programming on the HP-75". In it, he refers to documents I had seen other references to, the "HP-75 Description" or "HP-75 NOMAS". I already suspected that this could be helpful to me, and this CHHU article specifically mentioned "The HP-75 Byte Table (The Token Table)" on pp 24-30 of the NOMAS. The NOMAS documents aren't on the museum DVD. Does anyone have digital copies? If not, can someone lend me physical copies to scan and make available?

Thanks,


#5

I have the NOMAS stuff, on paper. Alas I have no scanner...

Anyway, I sort-of looked into to doing what you want to do. Be warned that it's not that simple -- it's not just a simple tokenisation. From what I remember, it's almost reverse-polish in places.

The table has some examples, and working out how they translated them is not at all obvious!


#6

Thanks for the response, Tony.

That's sort of what I figured, which was why I was hoping I could get the NOMAS stuff in digital form. Just looking at the bits, I've figured out a little. I have the following program:

0010 ! Just a bang comment
0020 REM This one is a rem
0030 I=1 ! i=1
0040 I$="1" ! i$="1"
0050 DIM A(20) ! dim a(20)
0060 DIM A$(20) ! dim a$(20)
0070 DIM B$[20] ! dim b$[20]
0080 J=1 @ I=2 @ K=J+I ! j=1@i=2@k=j+i
0090 DISP K ! disp k
0100 GOTO 10
0110 GOSUB 10
0120 IF A=1 THEN GOTO 10
0130 END

I've decoded part of the BASIC75 file like so:

?0000  05 86 c5 00  fe 42 a4 4a  a7 0a  header
000a 77 6f 72 6b 66 69 6c 65 filename "workfile"
?0012 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 10d nulls. Padding?
001c 10 00 line number 10 (little endian 16 bit bcd )
001e 17 Distance to next instruction.

*0090 88 b4 65 40 1f 20 41 1a Tokens for 'dim a$(20)
*0098 20 00 00 b4 65 40 23 8b 88 03
!00a2 64 69 6d 20 61 24 28 32 30 29 Comment text 'dim a$(20)
00ac 0e End of line 60
00ad 70 00 Start of line 70
00af 17
*00b0 88 03 20 42 1a 20 00 00 1d 8b Tokens for "dim b$[20]"
*00c4 06 0a
00c6 0e
00c7 80 00 Start of line 80
00c9 2e
*00ca 11 20 4a 1a 01 00 00 08 40 Tokens for 'J=1@'
*00d3 11 20 49 1a 02 00 00 08 40 Tokens for 'I=2@'
*00dc 11 20 4b 01 20 4a 01 20 49 Tokens for 'K=J+I'
*00e5 2b 08 8b 06 0d

First column is '*' for BASIC tokens, '!' for comment text and ? for stuff I'm not sure of. The next four columns are hex offset from the beginning of file. Next come an arbitrary number of hex digits representing the bytes at the indicated addresses, followed by a discussion of what I think they mean.

I could continue in this vein, modifying the source to illuminate particular points. I'd stand half a chance if I could stay awake! It just seems easier to ask the world if there isn't a shortcut. I like shortcuts. 8)
