The Sinclair QL Forum

There is a manual for the CST RAM Plus card at https://dilwyn.qlforum.co.uk/docs/manua ... amplus.pdf (in case you didn't get one with it).

Thank you Per, saved me time writing an equivalent. Not tried it yet, looks a bit like what I would have done and straightforward enough.

The simplest might just be to open a tiny window, eg 0x0a0x0, and read the pointer with RDPT. If you really cant use an open channel for whatever reason there is my S\CRXY and GPT toolkit commands. SCRXY reads the size of the screen and GPT gets the current pointer position - both without the need ...

To save me reinventing the wheel, anyone know how (or if?) a program with no open CON channel can monitor the absolute pointer position on the screen? Happy to be told it's not possible or if I'm a fool to even think of trying it. It's for a little personal program which sits quietly in the backgrou...

Nice! Heard about those instore demo boards, but never seen a real live example. Thanks for the picture.

Never seen one of those before - what type is it (or is it homebrew) ? As you say, ties up the expansion slot. And depending on where in the memory map that puts the ROMs, might not allow expansions like Trump Card which use space allocated for ROMs to make up the difference between 640K total RAM a...

Yes, one of my QLs has a very old QLEA ROM switcher board where I can switch between a Sinclair and a Minerva internally. It even has different colour LED for both. The Minerva could do with updating at some point, it's not one of the more recent ones. The other QL has one of Marcel's QL-SD-ROM devi...

Another postal rant Just tried to order 4 tiny plotter pens from a German supplier and they want £55 postage! The pen price is bad enough but that takes the biscuit I sympathise with this because of my own experience. I sell some old Welsh records, CDs and tapes on eBay and people are forever moani...

Have a look in https://dilwyn.qlforum.co.uk/qlib/Qlib345s.zip there are some QLIBn.asm files in there not looked in any great detail to check it's what you are after

Sad news. Thank you for letting us know.
