USBWiz makes interfacing pretty easy, although its internal driver
only
support 8.3 FAT for the SD card.
It also has built in drivers for some USB devices (like printers I
think) using AT sytle serial commands.
I would not have thought it is an impossible projects, and would
work
without drivers as such. It could be done from Basic.
However it would be good to have driversto make it QDOS compatible.
There would also have to be long filename conversion tables much
like
the Windows micro~nn.ext
I think past discussion of the USB interface has focused on the
traditional view of USB. Something like this might provide an
alternative and possibly more practical approach. The AT-style serial
commands might enable tinkerers to play around with it to a degree
without having to rely on full blown native QL drivers which ahs been
a past stumbling block for us.
