Formatted properly...read this one... Scanning anyone? I have some goodies for you!
Message #1 Posted by Gene on 5 Dec 2006, 9:58 a.m.

Sorry, messed up the other post without formatting and now can't edit it!

Is there anyone out there who has the time/ability/willingness to scan some more documents into PDF format?

Catch: It is a collection of some HP user library programs AND some TI PPX library programs. You can't just scan the HP ones. Not fair! :-)

Why do this? If we don't preserve the history of the HP and TI library programs, who will? And, yes, the TI materials are also worth preserving. No, really, they are.

Listing:

HP programs included (all HP41C program listings include barcode)

HP41C Large Size Printing (banners), Library # 99956 (that's what it says) for HP41c. 73 pages! HP41C Advanced Star Trek, Library # 99962, 53 pages HP41C Orbital Parameters, # 502C, for HP41c. 15 pages HP41C Space War - interactive, #655c, 12 pages HP41C Almanac for computers: Power Series and Chebyshev expansions, #865C, 10 pages HP41 Sunrise, Sunset, and Twilight from 1900, #508C, 20 pages

HP67 Classical Orbital Elements from Postion and velocity vectors, #504D, 6 pages HP67 Orbit determination by the method of Gauss, #505D, 5 pages

Dark empire (TI PPX TI59 programs) :-)

Star Trek II, PPX 000018 ?, 3123 steps long! Whew! If only the card reader were reliable enough to read in all of it :-) TI59 Memory Structure, PPX 908082, 6 pages TI59 Space War, PPX 918047, 278 steps, 9 pages TI59 Dungeons and Dragons, PPX 918121, 872 steps, 12 pages TI59 Firmware by Palmer Hanson (yippee!), 25 pages TI59 Space Attacker for young people, PPX 918309, 478 steps, 10 pages TI59 Adventurer, PPX 918261, 625 steps, 12 pages TI59 The Mansion, PPX 918215, 400 steps, 10 pages TI59 Star Wars, PPX 918178, 2071 steps !!!!, 23 pages TI59 Asteroid Attack, PPX 918238, 632 steps, 17 pages

So, anyone willing to do this? I'll ship these to you in return for PDF files from the scans.

Are they in loose pages or are they bound in any way?

Sure, I'd be happy to scan them. If they're loose sheets, I'll use a Ricoh IS520 high speed duplex scanner. Otherwise I can use a book scanner.

They are loose, two sided, held together with binder clips and/or staples.

Luiz, thanks for the offer, but will probably save postage and send to someone in the US. :-)

Whomever does this can feel free to keep the material. All I want are PDFs and have them shared!

Eric, you may be in the lead!

Hi, Gene;

wide Americas included?

I'm offering my available spare time in this vacancy time (mainly January) and I accept any TI or HP documentation, no restrictions at all. If you prefer allowing me to scan TI docs, I'd gladly go for them, too.

If you want to tell me anything about:

lcvieira [At] quantica [DOT] com [dOT] BRazil

Best regards.

Gene: If you really can find a willing scanner I have an inch thick pile of TI-59 Pakettes including

Blackbody

Programming Aids

Lab Chemistry

Statistical Testing

I also have two Interface Descriptions which supposedly will help a user connect other machines to the PC-100.

I'll leave it to you to coordinate any scanning activity.
