Hi,
Quick question......is there a wildcard for qltools.....I can't see one.

If the update to the Windows app is a long way off then I may create a wrapper for this DOS version. Should be doable.XorA wrote:Yay, I am not completely dumb then
The source probably now only compiles with gcc and mingw32 but I can live with that!

Re: Floppy emulator (SD card)
I'm using Win7(64) but I also tried on an old WinXP laptop and same results, can't read the image. Only the org version of qltools works (in that respect).XorA wrote:This is really odd, I can read and write to all the .HFE files you sent to me!
Your DLL hasn't changed has it?

Re: Floppy emulator (SD card)
Same problem, could not open image.
Tried a different HFE same problem.

Re: Floppy emulator (SD card)
qltoolsorg.exe qltoolsnew.exe PS. the new exe is 138k, the original is 68k size if it's any interest. I renamed the exe's this time so could run one after another:- C:\Users\Ian\Desktop\qfe>qltoolsorg QLA.HFE -d -w C_BAS -d Checking QLA.HFE File loader found : HXC_HFE (SD Card HxCFE HFE file Loader)...

could not open image: No error
error : image file not opened
Usage: qltools dev -[options] [filename].................snip
