HP 28s rom dump with 50g

[matthiaspaul]

I have read reports that BINPRT doesn't work on the HP 49g+, so it may not work on the 50g as well. But please try it, so we know for sure.

I may be pointing to the obvious, but one significant difference between the HP 48GX/G+ and the HP 48gII/49g+/50g is that the later only support IrDA, whereas the former only support a proprietary HP SIR protocol. Another difference is the emulation layer.

However, this should only be a problem for BINPRT for as long as the hardware/emulator would provide the received data byte-wise already. If the hardware/emulator allows to log away the raw bit-wise stream of state transitions of the IR receiver itself, it shouldn't matter. Since I have never programmed the IR port on these machines, I do not know the answer to this question, but I'm sure others will. Is the source code to BINPRT available anywhere?

Greetings,

Matthias
