Thank you, Thomas.
I had a brief look to it and it seems to be a really tiny compiler - about 50KByte, so it can run natively in the 95LX environment.

Although I still have to restore my 95LX, later acquire at least one RAM card to have some more memory space, and then build a USB-RS232 serial cable (I know I could buy one ready made, but it would take out all the fun of this hobby).

Yesterday I have opened it. This will be a partial tear-down only.
HP keyboard assemblies based on plastic heat stakes, like this 95LX, gives high structural rigidity but it is a pain to do proper maintenance when needed.

I was lucky as the battery acid didn't reach the main electronics.
