Re: QSTAR 2
In most cases, it is just better to link TK2 (or any other used toolkit) into the compiled binary instead of loading it in BOOT. That means once your program is done, it will be gone again. With your approach, you might be ending up filling your memory with multiple copies of TK2 (which won't hurt,...

Re: QSTAR 1
Nice game, Andrew
Works on QPC2 with QPC_QLSCEMU 8. (I normally run QPC2 at 960x540 in full screen on an HDMI monitor). No luck with SMSQmulator so far, though.

Re: Pointer Absolute Position
<>That would be very helpful if you could post them, thank you Per. It is very easy with a CON_0x0 but even 0x0 keeps confusing the pointer focus for some reason, plus there are systems on which con_0x0 can't be used. Well, one of these routines requires the PI to be installed, but I guess that is ...

Re: Pointer Absolute Position
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 f...

Re: Advanced QL User Guide
Thanks are due to you too, Norm, for your e-zine! And for dispelling any lingering doubts about the myth that A1 is an active stack pointer! That myth has haunted the years of innocence and stout hearts of many of us who ventured to wrestle with the arcane mysteries of Qdos programming! Lead astray ...
