Forbidden Kin -finished- - Version- 1.0 Se ((full)) Official

I never used Lotus Agenda, but I’m told it was a popular productivity tool for MS-DOS in the late 80s. I’ve been on a retro software rediscovery kick lately, so I’ve decided to give it a whirl and write about my experiences. There is something that appeals to me about using long-abandoned software. Perhaps it’s update fatigue, there’s certainly no need to dread a major update breaking something!

Regardless, I’ve always enjoyed finding new productivity tools to try out, and I’m not afraid of steep learning curves or getting my hands dirty. I’ll usually choose powerful and flexible software over simplicity.

At the moment I mostly use taskwarrior, but I’ve lost count of all the others I’ve tried!

Agenda is a PIM, a Personal Information Manager. That term has fallen out of fashion, I think a quick summary might be “anything that manages those small pieces of information we all deal with”. Things like contacts, todo lists, notes, and so on.

I found a 1989 episode of the TV show Computer Chronicles that discussed how people thought about PIMs at the time.

At the 21-minute mark there’s a demonstration of Lotus Agenda, but it’s not easy to follow, watch the clip and you’ll see what I mean. Still, you do see some interesting features:

• Some form of NLP is used to extract dates and names from free-form text.
• Categories are a little like what we would call tags today.
• You can create custom dashboards called views.

Apparently this was an $800 software package (That’s $395 adjusted for inflation from 1989), yikes! You don’t have to pay that, Lotus made it available for free when development ceased.

In preparation for trying out Agenda, I found a copy of the original manuals on eBay for a few dollars. Just look at this monster, the user guide alone is over 700 pages, that’s not including the supplementary guides. The supplements I have are Working with Macros, Working with Definition Files, Setting up Agenda, and a few miscellaneous leaflets.

I guess that’s my bedtime reading taken care of for a while. I actually received the macro reference still in the original shrink wrap, it almost seems a shame to open it!

I should open the APK download page and the Goodreads page to see if they provide more context.

You probably need to use other applications or services, and sync your data with your phone. Writing and reading files from outside DOSEMU is no problem, so if you just want to sync files this is no problem.

As it’s a terminal application you can also just SSH in and run it.

You probably also want to have your appointments sync with your calendar or something.

I quite like Agenda. It does many things well, but it’s absolutely true you could replicate most of it’s functionality with modern tools. However, I do enjoy using it, and I’m a big enough nerd that I quite like the challenge of using retro software.

I think the closest modern equivalent to Agenda would be taskwiki. It’s not a perfect match, but if you liked some of what you saw here but are not interested in retro software, try it out!

I’m still using Agenda after two weeks, and about 40% of the way through the manual 😂

• Bob Newell’s Agenda Page has lots of old documentation. In particular, I found this old Lotus Support FAQ from 1990 fascinating.

Forbidden Kin -finished- - Version- 1.0 Se ((full)) Official

Anyone trying to earnestly use 30 year old software is bound to encounter a few hiccups. Here are some of the problems I ran into. I also have an FAQ.

• Q. The installer complains about registering disks.
• A. The free disk images from Lotus include some form of copy protection. You can’t just extract the files - you need to emulate a floppy drive. If you don’t want to bother with that, there’s a preinstalled ZIP available here.

• Q. Some of the default keystrokes are difficult to enter today, like Alt-F4.
• A. You can rebind keys using a Macro.
  1. Open the Macro Manager, Alt-F3.
  2. Press Ins to create a new Macro, call it “Macro”
  3. Press F2 to open the editor, and enter this:

  {Macro}
  {AltF4}

  4. Press F5 to save it, then F6 to open the macro properties.
  5. Select “Attach to key”, Press F2 and enter {CtlF4}.
  6. Now you can use Ctrl-F4 instead of Alt-F4. You can do the same thing to other bindings that you don’t like.

I made Ctrl-S Save, and Ctrl-F Find. The defaults are Alt-W (??) And Alt-F6 (???!).

• Q. I can’t enter Alt-F3 in my terminal, so I can’t rebind keys!
• A. Download SCANCODE.COM from here, it’s a DOS TSR that can simulate keystrokes. Once you have it installed:
  1. Press F10, Select Utilities, then Launch
  2. Type SCANCODE Delay 3,Alt-F3 (If SCANCODE is not in your %PATH%, type the full path, e.g. C:\SCANCODE\SCANCODE.COM.
  3. After a few seconds, the Macro Manager will appear. I would suggest rebinding it to Ctrl-F3, so you don’t have to do that everytime!

• Q. When I exit agenda, try to print something, or run external commands I get an error like EInternal Error.
• A. Add the line $_umb_a0 = (off) to your .dosemurc.

• Q. When I run Agenda, it looks garbled like this.
• A. You are using DOSEMU with a non-standard text mode. Here are some possible solutions, pick whichever one you prefer.
  • Before starting DOSEMU, type stty cols 80.
    • If you use an unusual terminal (like Windows Terminal), you might get an error like Operation not supported. A workaround is to install xtermcontrol and type xtermcontrol --geometry=80x${LINES}.
  • Use GNU screen, and create a layout for DOS applications (this is what I do, see the next question).

• Q. Can I see your GNU screen configuration to get me started?

• A. Sure, here’s my main screenrc, and here’s my dosemu specific one.

  I use alias agenda="screen -c ${HOME}/.screenrc.dosemu dosemu -term -E agenda" in my .bashrc to start agenda.

• Q. Can I see your DOSEMU configuration to get me started?
• A. Sure, here.

• Q. Agenda uses 100% CPU time while idle, which is stopping my CPU from entering low power states. How do I fix that?
• A. Update DOSEMU, I filed an issue and a fix was committed.

• Q. Agenda doesn’t use 100% CPU time, but it still uses more than I would like.

• A. DOSEMU simulates timer interrupts using setitimer(), and by default it requests them as quickly as possible. If the DOS application does a lot of work on every interrupt (Agenda queries the time), then it can use some CPU.

  There’s a tradeoff here, you can simulate a slower interrupt timer but responsiveness will go down (i.e. how quickly the application responds to keyboard input). You can experiment with the numbers and find the optimal balance.

  If you were playing a DOS game, you would probably want it high, but for an office application like Agenda you can turn responsiveness waaaaay down and it’s still totally acceptable.

  To do that, set the timer option. The default value is 18, but I find 8 to be totally acceptable, maybe even 6. You can only change the timer setting on the commandline, not in .dosemurc.

  $ dosemu -term -I "timer 8" -E "C:\AGENDA\AGENDA.EXE"

  The lower you can set this value, the lower CPU time agenda will use.

• Q. I get an error like “Error: A.EXE not found”.
• A. Agenda is not in your %PATH%, add a line like path %PATH%;C:\AGENDA to one of your initialization files, like fdppauto.bat.

• Q. I’m using GNU screen, and some function keys produce garbage.

• A. S-Lang tries to check if you’re using an xterm compatible terminal by doing strncmp($TERM, "xterm", 5);. GNU screen is xterm compatible, but it sets the terminal to screen.xterm-256color.

  A workaround is to just make an alias for this termcap entry that starts with “xterm”. First, get a copy of the termcap entry, e.g.

  $ TERM=screen.xterm-256color infocmp > termcap.txt

  Now, add an alias at the top of the file that starts with xterm, e.g. I made mine look like this:

  screen.xterm-256color|xterm-256color.screen|GNU Screen with xterm using 256 colors,

  Now recompile it, tic termcap.txt. tic automatically installs that entry in your $HOME/.termcap directory, so it should be available immediately. Now add the line term xterm-256color.screen to your .screenrc, and the problem should be solved.

• Q. I’m using GNU screen, it works but the Escape key seems slow, unreliable, or needs to be pressed twice?

• A. First add the line maptimeout 50 to your screenrc, and see if that helps. If it feels better but not fixed, try tweaking the number.

  If it didn’t help at all, then I think your termcap definition is wrong. Perhaps you are using a terminal that claims to be xterm compatible, but is not.

  Try these steps:

  1. Decompile your current termcap entry, $ infocmp -1 > termcap.txt
  2. Find the line that starts kmous= and remove it, that’s mouse event reporting. I’ve found this unreliable in some vte-based terminals.
  3. Recompile it, $ tic termcap.txt.

  See if that fixes the problem. tic places compiled definitions in your $HOME/.termcap directory, you can remove them if you want to go back.

• Q. How can I print something from Agenda?

• A. Add the line $_lpt1 = "dosprint" to your .dosemurc, then create this shell script in your $PATH called dosprint, you can adjust to your liking. The ps2pdfwr utility is part of ghostscript.

    #!/bin/bash
    declare tmpfile=$(mktemp --tmpdir=${HOME}/Downloads --suffix=.pdf printjob.XXX)
    if ps2pdfwr - ${tmpfile} > /dev/null; then
        xdg-open "${tmpfile}"
    else
        rm -f ${tmpfile}
    fi

• Q. Can I see a sample of Agenda generated PostScript and/or a sample PDF?
• A. Sure, here is some PostScript, and here is a PDF.
