Re: Is SBASIC programming on SMSQE difficult?

Your wish might be difficult to grant. The forum runs on something called phpBB. It probably uses a mysql database to hold posts, topics, etc -- but don't quote me because I didn't check! I did look for tools to combine/merge multiple posts into one document, with no luck. Here's a thought experimen...

Hi ralf,

I suspect he means to update his QLIberator on his SMS2 computer, not to update SMS2.

Re: Hi

Hi Vol, I use Linux. I have QPC2 version 5.01 running under Wine on Linux Mint 20.3 64bit on an old Dell Vostro 17" laptop. QPC2 is a Windows program, but apart from not being able to access floppy discs, runs perfectly on Linux. I've been using it for years. You can get it at https://www.kilgu...

Re: QL Music

I always thought that the BEEP command was a pointless exercise -- and that QL and Music didn't really go together. Maybe I am/was useless at music anyway and it's not the QL's fault but mine. I tried your code on QPC2 5.01 and it was, unfortunately, not good. Lots of "white noise" over th...

Re: sQLux v1.0 (The Xmas Turkey)

Hey Derek,

Cheers,
