Re: The recent thing

I'm doing some keyword documentation for the Q68. And I think I will just put a warning in the description of RCNT_GALL that it does not work correctly, and may crash the system.

Re: The recent thing

I've been looking at the problem I have in the Q68 with the RCNT_GALL command again. First RCNT_INFO (example1_bas) info.png Now RCNT_GALJ (example3_bas) galj.png Now RCNT_GALL (example4_bas) gall.png Note that when RUN, if failed on line 10030 which has nothing wrong with it. It's actually the RCNT...

Re: Q68 support thread

I am trying to write some keyword documentation for the Q68.

Can anyone tell me if the CACHE_ON, CACHE_OFF, and PROT_DATE commands have any effect in the Q68.

I suspect that they don't, but I just want to check.

Re: The recent thing

Hi, Is the Recent Thing enabled in SMSQ/E? I usally enable the Recent Thing in SMSQ/E in all Q68 boards, I send out. Yes, I'm using the latest Q68 release. The other Recent Thing commands work (I think). I'm still getting my head around how the Recent Thing Basic extensions work. It's just that whe...

The recent thing

I have been playing with the Recent Thing in the Q68, and I am having problems with the RCNT_GALL command. It seems to crash a SBASIC daughter job. And in job 0, throw up a 'error in expression' error without a line number, or return an odd error, like 'not implemented'. It may also be doing some op...

Re: Q68 support thread

I have been trying to play with the SOUNDFILE command, using the example QL SSS sample files https://dilwyn.qlforum.co.uk/sound/index.html But when I play them, they sound too fast. I also tried the sound files on the QPC2 demo, and that is very fast. Are there different kinds of QL SSS files, or is...

Re: Q68 support thread

Thanks for checking it. Must be something weird about the PC I was using, (Anti virus/Firewall?) Or the ISP I was using. Firefox/Edge seemed to have a problem working out the size of the download, as it did not show an estimated download time. And when it failed, it world not resume, just start fro...

Re: No led lit and no test for microdrive 2

Note that mdv2_ will not start up on boot in any case, when it stays silent, that's normal. It should, however, react to commands. So is the fact that the LED doesn't turn on when starting MDV2_ also normal? If the motor of MDV2 spins, then LED should come on. If it does not, then it might be a fau...
