I am using the following BASIC program from (http://www.hpmuseum.org/cgi-sys/cgiwrap/hpmuseum/archv015.cgi?read=85666):
10 DIM A$[100]And it does work (Thanks!), but I have a few problems:
20 CREATE TEXT "MYTEXT"
30 ASSIGN #1 TO "MYTEXT"
40 ENTER :DOSLINK;A$
50 DISP A$ ! just to follow the process, you can omit it
60 PRINT #1;A$
70 GOTO 40
- After receiving the last line it just hangs there. I have to hit ATTN ATTN twice, then type STOP, then type CONTROL ON to get HP-IL virtual display working again.
- I cannot use it again until exiting EMU71 and starting up again. It is as if there is an open file pointer at the end of the file. END, STOP, END ALL should close the file descriptor, but it appears it does not.
Thanks.
