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! If you want to scare yourself shitless on the subject, read Nick Bostrom's excellent book Superintelligen...

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...

Re: EasyPTR APPMAN help

Jon,
You should be able to LRESPR the _app file and RUN or EXecute the SBASIC file to test your program. That should give a clearer idea of where the problem lies..

Re: SuperBASIC omission (bug?) in SMSQ/E?

Hi John, Im not able to replicate the problem you describe. The correct STUFF command is compiled into the routine (as you can see by looking at the BASIC code). The old command has obviously been buggered by gremlins! It was included in the latest zip in error (by a dozy Smurf). If QLib complains t...

Re: SuperBASIC omission (bug?) in SMSQ/E?

Hi johnh, Yes, there seems to be a cockup here. Any errors should show "Job xx ScrapStuff V0.05..". I'll update Knoware soon, but in the mean time try the attached version. There is no need to LRESPR STUFF_bin to use ScrapStuff - unless you want to use STUFF for something else. In case any...

Re: QL/E tiny free space on QXL.WIN, Urs?

An 80mb container and only about 770k free? Is there some kind of bug perhaps with the way it calculates free space? I dont see why not. Its a disk stuffed with goodies for you to test. Most people dont need five different text editors or a ton of games they never play. Try them out, choose the one...
