Re: QL Add-on ROM

I've seen utilities to load eprom file images into RAM and load them as if they were ROM's - but I thought the eprom manager actually allowed you to build and test eprom images, or have I got that wrong? No, that is exactly, what the T&EM from JMS does. You make a command file (like with RPM) a...

Re: BJ The Return, code entry

Must be Eidersoft (I think), who has written the protection scheme, as all other games from Janko are not protected (perhaps QL.Cavern with TTs FLRUN protection...)
