The Sinclair QL Forum

"To get C68 code to run natively on a PC, you have to rewrite all the SB_keyword calls into C-code. Because C68 is not C, just an adaptation of C for the QL....." C68 really is C and the most complete C compiler on the QL. It can do both K&R C and ANSI C. If your C / C68 code makes use...

The user manual for DataDesign is here: http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/database/DATAdesign.pdf

Check out this forum post where the topic is the failure of the QL: http://qlforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=1228 This might have some useful information for you. As for my view of "back in the day", I am in the US and Sinclair never really tried marketing the QL much over here. I think most o...

Tobias, You are running into exactly the same problem that I had in testing ProPascal and ProFortran. In my case, I was testing ProFortran on UQLX and I encountered the same issue you did with the PROM having an issue. I don't know if it is fixable. If I need to use ProFortran, I plan on using Q-emu...

I have been on the Board of 4 different non-profits and I'm not sure if a non-profit is the right answer for this. The right answer might be getting others involved in the running of the projects (QL Wiki, ZX81 forums, etc) and making sure that they are all hosted on systems that don't rely a single...

I have a full page scanner and a few copies of Quasar. I can run a test and see how it works. Through a local Museum I have access to very large scanner that I can use.

I'm guessing a power line failed and took out power to that section of the website.

I tested this .img file with uQLx and it ran fine. Granted the images were a little wider on the QL screen. Nicely done.
