Re: Announcing availability of a QLNET driver for the Q68 (ND-Q68)

"On the internet, nobody knows you're a dog"

Only takes a couple of, err, bytes to find out. Or when the dog uses a bark-code :D

Re: Announcing availability of a QLNET driver for the Q68 (ND-Q68)

I forget where I saw this (maybe DIY Toolkit?). Wasn't there a device driver which let you peek the memory of one computer from another over the network? I think it was called MEM or something like that. If the clock is PEEKable, that might be another way to access the date. EDIT: It was Volume N of...

Re: Announcing availability of a QLNET driver for the Q68 (ND-Q68)

But be aware that SDATE time (i.e. one parameter) is a Minerva and SBASIC enhancement. IIRC it doesn't work on Sinclair ROMs On other ROMs, SDATE 0,0,0,0,0,0:ADATE time could probably be used to avoid having to break down 'time' into the six values for SDATE (easy enough with DATE$(time), although I...

Re: Fast Plot/Draw toolkit / viepoint manual/ PD3 Manual

Hi Andrei, I'm not sure if I've found the right file, one of the code files in this seems to have the extension names listed. It has no text file, so I am not sure what this does! I'll leave this here for you to examine to see if it's what you were looking for. I found this by looking through the QL...

Re: Fast Plot/Draw toolkit / viepoint manual/ PD3 Manual

If anyone knows who wrote or published the Fast Plot/Draw toolkit, I might be able to find it. I've had a look at the PDtools1 and 2 disks RWAP released with the Reference Guide. It's not on those (unless under another name which I couldn't match). That implies it might go back to pre-RWAP days. As...

Re: Dev_use how to use?

Did you have pointer environment installed? The stand-alone ones on my website need it according to the notes on the page (don't know the reason why, might need Thing system or something to link into, can't remember the reason now). "Bad Name" usually means the extension hasn't been linked...

Re: Dev_use how to use?

https://www.dilwyn.qlforum.co.uk/tk/index.html Make sure you use the right one, depending on whether the system has a QL-SD or not. QL-SD systems need v2.05 or later. May need the hotkey system to work. Some disk systems such as some of those from Miracle Systems might already have DEV built in, as...
