That's great Jan!

Let's see who gets to it first

Meanwhile, the Minerva version of the QLNET driver for Q68 (ND-Q68) is almost ready for release ...

Hello Jan! I've been playing with your Minerva4Q68 recently as we continue to develop the QL-Net driver for the Q68 (ND-Q68, already working under SMSQ) and wondered if you felt up to the task of re-assembling your patched Minerva to incorporate the 'I/O Fix' that Marcel added to Min v1.98. Effectiv...

Enjoy the wilds, Per - your refreshed site is a great research!

Hi Jason! Well, thanks to the help received from everyone here, I have now got my simple QL network file server working well enough for me to release the source code - it can be found at: https://github.com/dandelion-labs/QLAN This provides an inexpensive (~15 GBP) route to adding SD storage to the ...

AH, yes - sorry for omitting the Qx0, Peter! The one compatible that I don't (yet) own!

Hi again Jason! [Thanks for the correction to my earlier post - forever getting my PNPs and NPNs mixed-up!

Hi Marcel! And as far as I can see it doesn't demand a header on LOAD, or where have you seen that?Marcel We have seen it empirically when running (some versions of) TK2 - see below. My quick review of the latest TK2 source (from SMSQ v3.34) was sloppy - I realise now that only if the requested file...

Hi Norm!

It's always been on my to-do list - once I've completed the QLUB adapter project that embodies much of what I've learnt on the topic over the past few years...

I'm using the Minerva 1.98 ROM that was provided by Tetroid's ROM switcher - I'm assuming it must be the unpatched version. That's likely - I don't believe the I/O Fix version of 1.98 was available when Tetroid was building his multi-ROM (I have one of those too - very handy device.) Nevertheless, ...
