Re: Re[2]: Text conversion

[Aley Keprt]

You can use any "printer". Just install it with file as output port (instead of LPT), and you get the text file from Sim Coupe. At least my Windows does it this way. Then it asks me each time where to save this file (surely not windows system32 directory). ASCD emulator writes everything directly to file, not using any kind of Windows printer "drivers". But SimCoupe in Windows is usable as well without any problems. ---------------------------------------------------------- Mgr.(MSc.)

So when the input box appears to type in the file name make sure you put in a path c:\temp\somename.txt and you will find it in your C:\temp if you have one.   That may of no use to you and may be obvious to others but thats all I do.   regards Steve
