Ah, that explains it.roninfourseven wrote:Actually, I've gone back over my steps, and I didn't unzip them on the PC, I simply used the Windows installer for Q-Emulator which is am MSI installer and puts the files in a folder in the windows file structure.roninfourseven wrote:Noob error I think, I unzipped the files on PCstephen_usher wrote:How did you get the program onto the QL. It sounds as if it may not have the "Resource Fork", as it would be called on the Mac, half of the file, only the "Data Fork". The RF holds meta data such as the file type and the stack size etc.
I then used wxqt2 to copy the files to a QL formatted disk from their location, so if the files were broken, they were broken before.
Thanks Dilwyn, I very much appreciate you taking the time to explain the situation.dilwyn wrote: Ah, that explains it.
Nothing is broken, just not fully understanding how QL file headers work on different systems.
Hope this helps, I appreciate it's not exactly the simplest of concepts for a new user to try to follow.
No worries and thanks again. I'm just waiting on my reg code, it'll be useful to have Q-Emulator anyway, and I'll take a look at SMSQmulator too.Derek_Stewart wrote:Hi,

To remove the emulator QDOS file header, Qemulator does automatically when copying from PC file system to a QDOS file system, for registered users.
Or SMSQmulator could use its SFA device that does the same thing for free. Just need Java installed.

I only know of it coming with Q-Emulator, the version on Simone Voltolini's site is the Beta version. Once I get my reg code I will check it out properly.Andrew wrote:where can I download mdump2 ?Derek_Stewart wrote:Hi,

Registered users can access a wider variety of file containers (QXL.WIN, ZIP, etc.). For the ones supported by the unregistered version (including PC file system and physical floppy disks), both the registered and unregistered versions transparently perform the same header conversions.Derek_Stewart wrote: To remove the emulator QDOS file header, Qemulator does automatically when copying from PC file system to a QDOS file system, for registered users.
It's definitely v2.0.1 that comes with Q-Emulator, but If I've read all the posts correctly you'll need to convert it by removing the headers before use on a real QL.Andrew wrote:where can I download mdump2 ?Derek_Stewart wrote:Hi,
