I uploaded a small bugfix release QPC2v5.02.
Switch DMEDIUM_FORMAT for the DOS device to 1 (QDOS) instead of 2
(MS-DOS) because QD switches to different line endings on MS-DOS
drives and that confuses other applications.
Also fixed direct SBYTES to screen from WIN/FLP/DOS devices.

Enjoy, Marcel

In case you are thinking "Well of course it does, you bloody idiot!": I was only jokingpjw wrote:Wow, it works!
Thank you!
But that aside, wouldnt it have been more to the point to just fix QD instead? (Asking for a friend.)

Re: QPC2 v5.02
a) Easier to change QPC than to get everyone to update QD. Also, it's just a one byte change this way.
b) I designed the new DOS device in a way that it could completely replace WIN, so saying it's "QDOS" style isn't that unreasonable.

Re: QPC2 v5.02
I downloaded QLE today and tried to execute QPC2 v5.02 on a Lenovo R60 with a Centrino Duo T2300 at 1.6 Ghz running Windows XP.. It would not run, so I downloaded QPC2 from Marcel's site and tried the same thing. It still would not run. QPC2 v5.01 runs fine on this laptop. What might be the reason?

Re: QPC2 v5.02
v5.01 and v5.02 only differ in 6 lines of code, none of which can trigger this behaviour. So I really cannot explain it.

Re: QPC2 v5.02
I don't know either. But when designing the latest release of QL/E, I had "fallback" in mind. For that reason, I left QPC v4.05 with its SMSQ/E v3.36 in the package. And, to make it useable, I created and placed a batch file called QPC2v405_OSv336.bat.Tinyfpga wrote:I downloaded QLE today and tried to execute QPC2 v5.02 on a Lenovo R60 with a Centrino Duo T2300 at 1.6 Ghz running Windows XP..
