 Want to talk to me?
Contact me by sending emails to the address below. In order to reduce
the amount of spam I'm getting I've had to set it up so that you have to type in
the name yourself.
NOTES:
-
Put either "38G", "39G" or
"40G" in your subject line to get my attention, otherwise your email
may be deleted without being read.
Up to 95% of my mail
is spam, mostly from servers such as hotmail, aol and yahoo etc. I use
a filter that automatically blocks mail from these servers unless it is
clear from your subject line that it is something to do with HP calculators
and not how to get women, buy drugs or invest money.

I can't guarantee to be able to answer
your question quickly. Being rude to me, sending me follow up emails saying
"Why haven't you answered me?" is not going to help. I'm a full time teacher
and I'm not even going to see your email until the evening - often I can
answer it quickly if it's a simple question or something that I've
answered before (ie cut/paste). However it may not get answered before the
weekend.
.
I know that sometimes this is going to be frustrating but the fact that you
have an exam tomorrow is NOT MY PROBLEM.

If you would like me to post
something you've written on my site,
please be aware that I insist on certain standards, mainly
ones to do with documentation.
 | The files which make up your application must be bundled together as a zip
file. Please do not simply attach the bare files to the email you send me,
as many email programs will try to interpret them as text files with
unexpected results. |
| The two files HP39DIR.000 and HP39DIR.CUR must be included in the bundle,
correctly set up for this application, so that normal users can download it
using the 'Disk drive' option instead of having to use the 'Wire' option. |
| Most importantly, a reasonable degree of documentation must
be included, either as a TXT file or as a Word document. If you're
interested, you can download the template that I use for my aplets here.
This document should at least include information such as...
 | what is the purpose of the application? |
| how do you use it? |
| what is the expected input and output? |
| any special notes such as trouble shooting or warnings of bugs etc. |
|
| Ideally, if it is a Word file, you should also include screen snap shots
showing the application in action. |
