The Sinclair QL Forum

No, toolkit provided with pcml-interface is very basic. In fact I also tried it out with Q-emulator and when you load TK2 (as the QL-SD would do) and thus not use Q-emulator's own TK2, the same thing happens. And then when using WCOPY, after a certain amount of files it reads "out of memory&quo...

I have installed my QL-SD internally, taped it on the iron keyboardplate.
Works great with the PCML Q+ 256k + twin diskdrive.

But I had one issue: using WCOPY simply crashed the system.
Finally (after a lot of trial-and-error) found out MAKE_DIR_BIN was causing the problem!

IIRC I edited QL floppies with FloImg (a while ago).

To get you going, the Psion programs as PC zip-file, not a QL zip!

Files coming up!
It's all in your hands now: after releasing its files, the courageous little cartridge went corrupt forever

I found two cartridges labeled GIGA. One reported... "bad or changed medium" (yaaawn), the other booted and...froze the QL. I managed to WCOPY the entire cartridge to floppy though! On Qemulator the program boots, shows a welcome screen and for a very short moment you get the message "...
