I am too busy playing the game to give feedback...

Is SMS not s prevursor to SMSQ/E...

I keep hearing about Stella, tead the info on it and looks fine, but where is the demo version or source cofe.

Hi, A Hub electrical connects the network devices together with no control measures, all the network signals go to all the ports on the Hub, rising to data collisons. Switch is an intelligent Hub, that alocate each networked connection a dedicated port, so that the Switch remembers which port the PC...

Hi, To connect 2 computers by ethernet cable a cross over cable is required. The problem with this the network connection will negotiate to to slowest speed. So PC using 1000BaseT interface tuns at GigaBit or 1000Mb/s connected to a Q68 which has a 10BaseT network interface runs at 10Mb/s. The tesul...

[OT] In the vast majority of cases the files are so small that it doesn't make any sense for me to compress them. I can't stand .zip files: each time they must be unpacked with real QL or emulator, or with special tools. So annoying for a 10K file! I am much better with floppy images (also the .imz...

Hi, I spent over 30 minutes to get the Quick Mandrlbrot III to run, I wish everyone would use archiving software correctly. No wonder beginners have problems with all this QDOS Header problems, this only seems to a proliferation of emulators, personally I do not want QL executables with a QDOS Heade...

Hi Yes I use MDI just wondered if there was a ntive MDV driver available in sqlux. No, I have not really touched the disk support code from uQLx. The infrastructure is all there though if someone wanted to add that! The MDV format has multiple formats, so I prefer to FLP format images, this more co...

I examined the downloaded zip file, which could be uncompr...

or why not find the screen base address in the channel table.

But first the system variables need to be found.

Hi, Most 8 bit CPUs could be emulsted by the 68000 by using the QMAC Macro assemblers macro facilites to generate 68000 code from Z80 or 6502 op codes, I started this project many years ago and never really completed it. There would be alot of hardware specific code to change for the QL. But compari...
