Duckworth Home Computing QL titles

Post by dilwyn »

We have had an email message from David Marshall at Duckworth Publishers to say that it would be OK for us to scan and make available the following titles on a no-profit basis:

- Complete Sinclair QL ROM Disassembly (ISBN 0-71561-891-1) by P Gerrard and K Bergin
- Advanced QL Machine Code (ISBN 0-71561-910-1) by Adam Denning
- Getting to know your Sinclair QL (ISBN 0-715618-90-3) by Stephen Morris
This is our copyright material obviously, but provided you are scanning and making available on an entirely free and open access basis, then we have no objection.
Duckworth have no copies of these books nowadays and we have no copy of the QL ROM Disassembly one if anyone has a copy which could be scanned.

That is the other half of this message - if anyone has a scanner capable of scanning books such as these so that we could make them into PDFs for example, we would be grateful for any assistance.

I was converting this to epub format.

But not really finshed, I am converting the SMSQ/E Ref. Manual I updated to Epub/AZW3 for the Kndle.

Has this surfaced and been scanned or is there any QDOS commented listing?

AFAIK no other printed commented disassemblies, although there are some disassemblies on my website at http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/qlrom/index.html - scroll down to Disassemblies & Sources on the page.
