Re: Q-Liberator 3.46

If you print out the value of a6 on the first go you get one number, on the second it returns a different value. This occurs even when nothing obvious should make it so; no toolkits loaded, no jobs started or removed. Strangely, this behaviour has not shown up in different contexts, like if you loa...

Re: Q-Liberator 3.46

Im not sure about your preconditions. Did you get the systems variables pointer first? If you did, it should work every time. At first run I always get the message "TK2 is required to run QLib!!! Press <ESC> to stop loading". I press Space or Enter, and everything loads and works correctl...

X68000 Z

Well, I always loved the design of Sharp X68000 - and a QL in this kind of package would look awsome

Re: Launchpad v2.12 Update

The problem lies with the QLiberator QJ extension for listing jobs. It works in SBASIC, listing the jobs correctly (I'm using QLib 3.45a). I presume that the code for jobs is the same as in v2. 11, and that one works. So the quickest workaround would be to compile with an older version of Qliberato...
