Hi RMK,
yes I already use the allocated memory when I start HTBasic.
The instruction or method I’m looking for is what you name the “dynamically memory recover” …

It’s me or there is a problem with the unzip process of the “HTBasic 10.1.zip” file in the Download section ?

[ZeRider]

Hi,
On Tech Soft site it’s seem that the response is no :
http://www.techsoft.de/documents/downloads.html

But the best way is to download the demo version and try it …

Hi,
It’s difficult to help you without to have the listing of the program or its problematic part.

Hi Precaud,
Maybe there is another way to do the same (found in HTbasic help, “GRAPHICS INPUT IS” topic)

10 PLOTTER IS CRT,”INTERNAL”
20 GRAPHICS INPUT IS KBD,”KBD”
30 TRACK CRT IS ON
40 FRAME
50 DIGITIZE X,Y,S$
60 PRINT X,Y,S$
70 END

Hi,
I have an old install of HPbasic version 6.32 where I can find the GPIBN.DW6 driver.
If you send me an Email or other I can send you the file if you want …

[ZeRider]

Hi,
It is very old but I seem to remember that the configuration Windows 98 + AT-GPIB / TNT + HTBasic didn’t work.
It was necessary to have an original old version of HP Basic with the dedicated NI driver.
To confirm …

[ZeRider]

Ok, we’ll live with that …
Thanks 🙂

[ZeRider]

Thanks tsg_sh

I have tested your command, it’s working very well.
It’s a very good improvement.

It only remains to find how to remove the driver from the device setup now … 🙂

Another interesting tool :

DevManView
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/device_manager_view.html

DevManView is an alternative to the standard Device Manager of Windows, which displays all devices and their properties in flat table, instead of tree viewer. In addition to displaying the devices of your local computer, DevManView also allows you view the devices list of another computer on your network, as long as you have administrator access rights to this computer.
DevManView can also load the devices list from external instance of Windows and disable unwanted devices. This feature can be useful if you have Windows operating system with booting problems, and you want to disable the problematic device.

Hi,
If you can’t do the job with HTbasic, you can use another tool.
Go to: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/device_manager_view.html

You can use this utility with HTBasic like this:

Prog$=”DevManView.exe”
File$=”MyFile”
Command$=”cmd /C start /MIN “&Prog$
Command$=Command$&”/scomma”&” “””&File$&””””
EXECUTE CHR$(13)&Command$

All that remains is to read the created file and to look in the different lines for interesting characters.
For example, “PCI-GPIB”

i’m agree with you, the new editor is much more esthetic but not very practical …
With the old editor you could execute quickly command line everywhere on the screen just after a clear line.
On my side, most of time, I just use this new editor for copy/paste between HTBasic programs or to other Windows applications.
I’m still work on the old fashion 🙂

[ZeRider]

Not exactly.
Create a text file “MyFile.txt” with the DOS command inside that is working with your system configuration
Rename the file : “MyFile.bat”
And execute this batch file with HTBasic

I don’t know if it’s the best solution for you but it’s an idea when you said the DOS command is working.
It could be also a good solution to add some function to HTBasic.
For example, find bellow a batch file I use to see the tasklist content (need to have a D partition) :

c:
cd\
tasklist /v >”d:\tasklist.txt”
exit

[ZeRider]

Perhaps you could try to send directly your DOS command with a synthax like this :
EXECUTE CHR$(13) & Command$

or other option create a batch file with all your necessary commands inside and execute it with HTBasic
Command$=”cmd /C start /MIN MyFile.bat”

Hi Andres,

In the Calculator program on line 90, you can read :
ASSIGN @Calc TO WIDGET “PANEL”;SET (“TITLE”:” Example: Calculator”,”X”:20,”Y”:20,”WIDTH”:300,”HEIGHT”:400)

This program is extract from the BPlus examples directory, so you need to load the BASIC PLUS bin files before to use it.
To do this at the start of program add this line : LOAD BIN “BPLUS”
And re-test …

You could find some other details about BASIC PLUS use and synthax in the HTBasic help file

Normally the best method is to add the line directly in the Autost program
In this case you will always had available the BPLUS commands
But with your demo HTbasic version I think you couldn’t store any modifications in the autost !
