Dear all,
In a nostalgic mood I dusted off my old HP 95LX with the intention to try to do some programming for it.
I looked around in this forum and found a lot of interesting information. Thank you for that!
In a thread from sept. 2007 "HP-95LX Programming" I read that it would be possible to create an executable with TurboPascal 5.5 that would run on the 95LX.
So I installed TP 5.5 and wrote a very simple "hello world" program with TurboPascal and copied the compiled exe file to the 95LX.
However when I run it, the screen goes blank and the device gets completely blocked.
Reading through the information on this forum and linked sites, I guess that it might have to do with the setting of the screen size. However I could not find how to do that properly for the 40x16 screen.
I would very much appriciate if anyone could help me out here. Could it indeed be the screen size setting and if so what should I do, or is it anything else?
Thanks.
