Notice that this doesn't add up to anywhere near 1 megabyte. When you
round each file up to a 512-byte boundary, the total is 522,240 bytes.
About 300K is reserved for localizing all the messages in the machine
(e.g. the German version contains all messages in both English and German).
Obviously, quite a bit of ROM contains code which is not mapped to E-disk.
File extensions used for HP-95LX files...
(These are in addition to the standard .COM .BAT .EXE .BAK, etc. extensions)
.ABK Appointment book files
.CTF Character translation files for Datacomm
.DCF Datacomm configuration files
.EQN Solver equation files
.EXM System-manager executable files
.FCF Filer configuration files
.HLP Help files
.LCF Script files for Datacomm
.PBK Phone book files
.PCF Printer configuration files
.PCX Graphics files
.TXT Memo files
.WK1 Lotus 1-2-3 worksheet files
Contents of C:\_SYS\SYSINIT.BAT...
(This BAT file is executed when the C: drive is rebuilt. The redirection
"> nul" prevents the message produced by COPY from being displayed.)
