The Sinclair QL Forum

I am using what I believe to be all the latest patches. Which ones? There are so many.... I usually visit Dilwyn's website for most of my QLIBs. However, once there, I would not advise searching for 'QLIB' because you'll be taken to the wrong page! Instead, you should scroll down and look on the ri...

That is really a nice idea to build a self-contained multi-threaded S*BASIC program, however: It should, but it doesn't, - At least not on SMSQ/E. I used to have an idea why not, but forgot... Tobias Indeed, this often crashed my systems. My be related to copying back parameters or multiple version...

First things first: You are cleaning up the code at the moment. I dont want to disturb or duplicate that effort. When you feel ready, Id be happy to take a look and add any suggestions I might have, as will hopefully other interested parties. Once we are clear about whats going on and how it works,...

It might be possible to get somewhere by adjusting line 27460 and use something like WM_Outln #console, SCRXLIM, SCRYLIM, 0, 0, 0, 0

I have finally managed to complete the renaming of Martin's decompile of QLIB_obj. The program has not been changed in any way, it's just the var names that have changed. I have added in some REMarks, which was mainly to help me with the renaming. Upon compiling, the object file produced is practica...

So the commad line: exec_w mdv1_unzip;"mdv1_sample_zip -d mdv1_" Becomes: exec_w mdv1_unzip;"-dmdv1_ mdv1_sample_zip" Thanks for the info. I did try it both ways. I'm guessing it's a QLAY2 issue. You could try using ew instead of exec_w, and also try ex. These tk2 commands are s...

You could try .. data_use mdv1_ : exec_w mdv1_unzip;"mdv1_sample_zip" If the above fails, you could unzip to mdv2_ and copy the files across to mdv1_ using wcopy. Interesting .. I have had the very problem that Artificer has mentioned. Regardless of what I tried, all the files insisted on ...

Ralf, about sedit_63 - have you renamed the vars, yet? Just found the source today. A test.win where I have copied a lot of files without directories. Always good to have a backup in the office! Now I have to put all the files together. https://cheesebuerger.de/images/midi/musik/g034.gif Would be g...

Interesting .. I note from the assembler listing that RNAME starts off by fetching the first parameter as an integer. Since in the Basic program RNAME is called with a float as the first parameter, my guess is that this routine will not work as expected, in any case. It will work fine. You could ev...

Not guessing why do you want to modify this extensions if you don't kwow what they do ? Not sure I am able to do it from assembler side. RNAME is quite trivial code copying from arrray (16) in first parameter to 1 to 3 others parameters when given but I cannot say what is copied. Interesting .. I n...
