Hi, Look in the QDOS Technical manual or SMSQ/E Reference manual. That said, I doubt just poking a value into a System Variable will work, surely the writers at Gigasoft would thought of that and not used the QDOS routines. Maybe disassemble the program is see what is going on. I was looking at the ...

There is another issue with the QPTR PAINT_BAS program, it uses the variable compiled to detect wether it is compiled. But if Turbo Toolkit is loaded, there is a COMPIKED keyword added to the interpreter, so that fails as well. Yes, but that was easy to spot, even for me. I changed it to isCompiled...

Hi,

Hi,

The MICE system I used many years ago was mouse only, the keyboard was not useable.

I will see if I have the manual.

The MICE interface was designed to fit a QL with the 2 or 3 supporting legs fitted to the rear of the QL.
