You can ftp from neptune.ee.sophia.ac.jp(133.12.13.5):/pub/msdos/hp95lx/hp100lx/emm040e.lzh. The readme.1st file of this package is following. If you have some questions for this package, contact the author directry. Expanded Memory Manager for HP100LX EMM100.EXE version 0.40E Copyright(C) 1994 Hiroyuki Sekiya email:JBD00432@niftyserve.or.jp This document is originally written in Japanese by Mr.Sekiya, and translated to English by Naohiko Shimizu. (nshimizu@osdgw.ebina.hitachi.co.jp) This archive is an EMS driver (EMM100.EXE) for HP100LX. EMM100.EXE access directry to the internal C: drive in HP100LX, then it can save the main strage for page frames and it can save time to access the EMS page frames. EMM100.EXE is a free software, but there are some restriction on redistributing of this package. Read reame.emm document. You should backup C: before installing EMM100.EXE. If you can read Japanese please read *.doc file in this archive, they are written in Shift JIS format.

Sherwood Williams) writes: |driver, then it might be worthwhile. Or if you have some conventional |programs that make use of EMS it might be worthwhile. Otherwise This is the point that this driver is very useful for Japanese user. We Japanese need a Kana-Kanji conversion TSR and if we did not have an EMS driver, the TSR would take typically 150KB of conventional memory. |realize that the Driver will take up 64K of System RAM to use as its |swap area no matter how many pages of EMS you assign. The driver will take only about 2KB of conventional memory and just the same kilo bytes of C: drive file as the EMS pages. Because the page frames of EMS memory are mapped by the 100LX hardware, there is no need of swaping the frames by software. -- Naohiko Shimizu shmz@mamoru.ee.sophia.ac.jp
