The Sinclair QL Forum

It is interesting talking to people who have come back to the QL scene, and who are experiencing the QL emulators for the first time (maybe thanks to the DVD circulated with the last issue of QL Today). One issue which seems to perplex them is how to access the same files on Q-emuLator and QPC2. The...

Hmm my apologies - Jochen Merz or Marcel Kiglus may know how to contact Jochen Hassler then!

I thought it was Albin Hassler - not Jochen?

Indeed, a superb reference guide with examples and information not in the QL user guide. It's available on CD for £20 these days at http://www.sellmyretro.com - just search for "SBASIC/SuperBASIC Reference Manual for Sinclair QL on CD" or just "superbasic" http://www.sellmyretro...

The main things to remove to see the PCB are the two molex keyboard connectors, and the set of LED wires (6 in a strip) - although they are a REAL pain to get back in and one will normally come loose as you pus...

If you can send me some proof of ownership (by email), I will send you the necessary files - I can't remember if q-emulator can save to microdrive image files (I don't think so), but I can let you have them as a QL Zip if that is any good?
