The Sinclair QL Forum

I do wonder whether this should be setup to download the daily digest direct to the QL-users mailing list - mind you, a lot of people on their will not bother going to the forums to answer! I know what you mean. Although I read the RSS feed more or less daily (time permitting) sometimes I skip a re...

I've been reading this Forum's postings by using the RSS Feeds button in Internet Exploder. Works well enough and easily enough. I wanted to try receiving the postings of the Forum by email, like the ql-users mailing list, using Outlook Express. Here's how I did it, and I wonder what took me so long...

I thought it may therefore be useful to see if anyone has any suggestions as to how this can be improved - maybe Dilwyn could provide a copy of the unzip program ready to use in Q-emuLator (as I eventually did). Good idea. I have QemuLator so I should be able to do this if I can figure out how to m...

I know that the self extracting zip file can be very buggy and I had endless battles with it. In the end Dilwyn helped me out with that little manual program to sort it for you. Rob had similar issues, it's a very tricky step for your first steps onto the QL :? Sadly, the self-extract (SFX) version...

Wow, that's some collection. Starting bid only £30, but there is £20 postage to pay

Wow, 67 members from all over Europe and USA!

Does the system store any information on where the members are? It'd be interesting to have a breakdown by country (without identifying individual members).

You will get this problem with most toolkit extensions on version AH or version JM ROM. The interpreter will not allow you to use a keyword in the same program as that in which it was loaded. It must be loaded by a separate program. something like: This is one of the purposes of the BOOT program on ...

I am trying to work out how to pronounce it in my head Is it Tyche as in bike :?: or Tyche as is mice :?: or Tyche as in fish :?: or Tyche as in Geisha :?: or Tyche as in Touché :?: or Tyche as in Fleish-man :?: anyone? According to Laurence Reeves, who has worked with Jonathan Oakley, who in turn...

I'm writing a program in SBASIC (with QPC2 on Debian+Wine), and I need it to show some grey scale pictures in a window. I've found Photon (by Dave Westbury). I haven't tried it yet, but it seems it only shows JPEGs on the whole screen and doesn't provide a keyword to load a picture into a window. T...
