Re: Metacomco C Manual
Hi, I have inserted the missing pages tat CHR$ kindly scanned and ordered the pages so the manual is a double paged non-OCRed PDF. I find the scanned images really bad, with makes the OCRing with Tesseract nearly impossible. I may have to type it all in to give a good quality manual. If I could borr...

Re: SBASIC Trace
Hi
Thank you for the information, I did know about the Minerva Trace, which is detailed in the Minerva manual.
I was hoping for a possible addition to SMSQ/E with regards to Basic tracing.
So I will use MasterBasic...
Maybe Minerva should be developed further

Re: sQLux Detection
https://superbasic-manual.readthedocs.io/en/latest/C/check.html Thats what I was thinking of! Yes that could be done, but I would have to load DJTK. The PTY idea, could work, since I do not use Windows. My current solution of testng UQLX_RELEASE$ for string. a null string wod mean it is not sQLux o...

Re: I'm looking for a S*BASIC app, possibly by Tim Swenson!
Hi, Just another thought, why not use QD to write the SBASIC programme, so that line numbers are not required. To run the programme, configure QD to use QD/SBAS to call SBASIC interpreter, by pressing F10 Also, if you have the Help system setup, pressing F1 on the keyboard will load the definition o...

SBASIC Trace
Hi, I read in Andrew Pennell's book Assembley Language on the QL, there is an attempt at a Superbasic Trace routine. The ability to single step and trace a SBASIC programme, seems to be lacking, which if implemented woukd be a great enhancement to SBASIC. I suppose, I can use MasterBasic, which work...

sQLux Detection
Hi, I use SMSQ/E in QPC2, SMSQmulator and sQLux using the same QLWA container, so the boot file selects the extenstions to be loaded, based on the VER$ being equal to 'HBA' and the SMSQ/E MACHINE function. If sQLux is running, I use the UQLX_RELEASE$ to load sQLux extensions, is there a better way t...

Re: QL Powers Off
Hi If the power supply is okay, try measuring the 7805 Voltage regulator ouput voltage, or try a new voltage regulator, that is faulty. The QL is not prone to capacitor ptoblems, but changing them would hurt. I looked at the Keelog power supplies, they look good, maybe a little on the expensive side.

Re: Serial connection between QL and PC
HI, Well done, in my experience t is usually a cabling issue that causes the problem in serial comms. The vDriveQL is commerical and closed source. The Oqtadrive is open source, which does the same thing, but can use a Raspberry PI W or BannaPI to connect to the Microdrive imagies on the Oqtadrive, ...
