Re: Psion Software with Gold Card

While we're at it: Does anyone have a fix for the Xchange scroll bug? Its sooo annoying that when scrolling upwards through a documents the program occasionally crashes and work is lost.

When you feel ready, Id be happy to take a look and add any suggestions I might have, as will hopefully other interested parties. Once we are clear about whats going on and how it works, ...

Re: Writing $$external extensions with QLib

I think, an "!" after the keyword makes the generated QLib job like EX, it does not suspend the Caller. QLib doesnt like a terminating separator. Just put something after it, like ! 0 But the manual states this. And that worked under QDOS. All I can say is: Try it! I know I had problems i...

Re: Writing $$external extensions with QLib

Hi all, A little bit wondering about few feedbacks here, given the huge number of users using QLIB and externals facilities Yup, welcome to the mute world of QL! Its dumb, but appears sometimes to listen! I, for one, do read what you write, despite the fact that Im not really into Qlib externals. W...

Re: QLWARZ 02

Thanks for hosting this, Dilwyn.
I should point out that although the program only runs on QPC2 at present, it can be used to prepare
QXL.WIN virtual disks for any platform that supports them, like SMSQmulator, Q-emulator, Q68,..

Re: How do you make a QL emulator?

Why is there no interest in having computers do the coding? Just be glad computers cant (yet) do their own coding. They day that happens the best we can hope for is theyll use us for batteries!

Re: QPTR Toolkit Window Redefine

Without more details its hard to say. You may have to poke the scaling flags into your window definition. Then use CH_WIN to make the changes. QPTR is a hard slog, although the documentation is invaluable. EasyPtr is much easier to use! Wolfgang only uses Qptr, I believe, so he's the one to ask ;) O...
