I'm no expert on the LIF/DAT situation but here's what I know:

1. The .DAT files Joe graciously posted are images of an HP-IL volume. You can use them with IL-Per or other emulators w/ HPIL support.

2. The ROM and MOD files are images of actual HP-41 modules, with FAT, code, and possibly polling points. You can use them in V41 and burn then on Clonix/N0Vo, and download them to the CL.

3. The RAW files are images of individual FOCAL programs. You can load them on V41 and perhaps other emulators (?)


Update:

The "PPC_APPS" ROM is now more or less complete on the CL, but I'm still stuck trying to upload the ROM file to the PC. The link/cable/COM port/BAUD all work fine to download to the CL w/ CLWRITER but not so the other way around, i.e. upload with CLREADER. I tried different BAUD rates to no avail, also tried different versions of YEXP. I'll do a last attempt with my second CL, and if that fails too will dust off the MLM2k - I can also do it with that unit.
