The Sinclair QL Forum

There is the Google Custom Search Engine on my site - it's meant to present QL-related search results. When I first implemented it, there were more QL-related websites and it worked better then than it does now that there are fewer QL-related websites around. Probably worth a revisit to see if it ca...

I have a mouse of some type on all my systems, and unless I am specifically using or testing a non-mouse driven program I always connect and use the mouse as most of the programs I use day-to-day are all pointer driven. I hate trying to use the cursor keys to control pointer driven software. My syst...

Is there a specific reason why QDOS was implemented on Q68? For example, to give a choice, or to run/test software on it, or to just see if it could be done?

Would be good to have the information preserved for the future in case this issue raises its head again for someone else.

I remember thinking how genuinely awful documentation for beginners was at the time. Is it better now ?? I spent 6 hours trying to write a simple "Hello world" app (and understand what was doing) using PE and failed miserably. For comparison, I was able to write a simple windows 3.1 app i...

Just been asked something I've never really thought about...anyone know if any of the QL emulators can be run on a Chromebook? Probably not since they mainly run online apps I suppose.

e.g. if Java is available for them and SMSQmulator could be run?
