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 (?)

Very helpful Angel, thanks for clarifying.

Using the above definitions, this is the plan:

1. I will barcode scan the programs in from Wlodek's book (plus others if avail) and load them into a single .DAT LIF image via HP-IL/ILPer
2. I'll send the image to you (Angel) and to Joe to host for others that may want it this way.
3. Angel will use his magic to turn this collection of FOCAL programs into a ROM/MOD image for loading into CL/NOVo (and go41cx emulator!).

Should get to this tomorrow.
