The Sinclair QL Forum

Had to do some posts lately to get rid of my overheated PSU forum level.

All runs fine here. Without going into details, try the thingy out of THE DISTRIBUTION where everything has been pre-configured and tested. The Prospero suite is in the folder \xcl\prs\, the pre-configured QemuLator in the folder \xcl\. Just start QemuLator with the supplied prs-Prospero_Pascal_Fort...

I had to carefully hand-select what additions and updates to be included or omitted and also to seek for duplicates to save space. As a direct result the unZIPped content (folder THE_DISTRIBUTION of THE_DISTRIBUTION.ZIP) of the latest version 3.04 fit on a physical DVD. At least when burned on my PC...

QCP which came with QDT can easily be configured using MENUCONFIG. ex menuconfig_en;win1_app_QDT_BIN_qcp_obj Set the directory to basecolours_inf to app_QDT_BIN_ Save it and after that start QCP in the GRAPHICS folder of QDT and it works. See attached screenshot. QCOCO is not (yet) part of QL/E. I h...

Update package (248 MB ZIP file) is available now. If you have previously downloaded an earlier version of THE DISTRIBUTION then this may be a path for you. The update procedure by a standard ZIP file is easy, works on all platforms and is good enough for most people (especially novices). It has one...

Today is the release of the final version 3.04 of “QL IS 30 2014 – THE DISTRIBUTION”. This marks the end of my “QL is 30” activities. The new version comes with the latest versions of SMSQ/E (v3.25) and SMSQmulator (v2.18) carefully integrated into QL/E, QL EMULATORS, QL ON A STICK and ZEXCEL SPECTR...

Hi QLers, April 23rd, what does this date say to us? Saint George's Day, The Bayerische Reinheitsgebot (regarding the ingredients of beer) was signed 500 years ago, William Shakespeare died on that day 400 years ago, the Sinclair ZX Spectrum was launched 34 years ago. Great day in history! The QL’s ...

Managed to test the QXL today. Nice! I did fire-up my QXL just days ago to verify that the updated QL/E is running well. See the picture series starting at: https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=C250D8748980CE5A&id=C250D8748980CE5A%2125669&parId=C250D8748980CE5A%21353&o=OneUp Only did a basic ...

What QL stuff did you get yourself for your sons birthday? :lol: For me: The original Sinclair QL Sales Guide (very rare). This was a Joint ebay purchase by Rich and myself last year. Rich sent this to me some days ago. For him: Installing the latest QL/E on his high performance Gamer PC, the faste...

Even QL/E loads Menu_rext v8.02 by default, one can easy change it to use Menu_rext v7.04 which is also included. All one has to do is DELETE or REMark line 11280 in the BOOT program and make sure line 11282 looks like this: 11282 IF QLE_language$="GE" : LRESPR MENU_REXT_704_GE : ELSE LRES...
