RE: HP-71B & PILBox & Remote Terminal
Thanks. So I assume this means I need a physical ROM to run on a real 75?

Is there a LEX version of the I/O ROM so I can load into memory?

If not, would it be feasible to create one from the source (for just KEYBOARD IS, say)?

The HELP LEX file can be found in the OLDP SWAP/HPCC88 volume.

I am not 100% sure this is the case, but it is consistent with the 71B coming later and having the most powerful HP-IL implementation among the calculator models, and that no one has reported finding it.

But I would love to be wrong about this....

There is no known stand-alone KEYBOARD LEX for the HP-75, but the KEYBOARD IS statement is present in the I/O ROM.

As I was checking, I noticed that it's no more possible to browse Joe's OnLine Disk Project collection on hhuc.us/2014.
Individual files can be accessed for instance: HELPDOC75.txt
but not the root folder or any sub-folders: hhuc.us/2014/files/Speakers/08,09%20Joseph%20Horn/Online%20LIF%20Disk%20Project

The collection can still be found on Joe's site: https://holyjoe.net/HP71/Online-LIF-Disk-Project.zip
but it was very convenient to be able to browse it on-line.
