The Assembler series and the MC6800x reference I mean. These were converted to DocBook and from that, the HTML files on the disc were generated. The files on CD are in HTML, not DocBook.

As I also have this problem I have been doing some research that may be of interest to others who are having similar problems. QPC print is not the problem, but versions of QPC2 and Perfection. Somewhere between version 3.03 and 3.30 changes were made to QPC2 which for some reason I cannot determine prevented printing from Perfection. I have tested both version 6.10 and my DP supplied version of Perfection on QPC2 3.03 and QPC2 3.30, using a QL compatible printer. Both printed under QPC2 3.02 but not QPC2 3.30. The answer is to download Perfection 6.12 from Malcolm Cadman's site. I have had no problem with printing from Perfection using QPCPrint. I am fairly sure I was using an earlier version of Perfection than 6.12. However I certainly had to alter Perfection's printer driver. Some facilities of my old Epson 9-pin dot matrix printer are not available with QPCPrint and other facilities, such as choice of font, are available with QPCPrint but not with the dot matrix printer.

[ql-users] Some Newbie Hardware Questions about GC , SGC,QUBIDE
Hello, i read different things about qubide and the Gold Card. Is it right that the powersupply of the QL isn't able to serve Gold Card and qubide ? If yes, it shouldn't quit easy to replace the QL's Powersupply + the 5v regulator with an PC Powersuppy ? Is there any Ethernet Card for the QL ? Yes I know I could use QPC (which I own and I use everytime I haven't access to my QL) to do this all, but I prefer to work on an real QL.

Yes it is relatively easy to replace your QL power supply with a PC one, or even modify the circuitry inside your QL. You should contact Tony Firshman on that one :-) Is there any Ethernet Card for the QL ? There's one that's already designed but not constructed.

Re: [ql-users] QL News
Hi, imho i think this is a good idea, to have one central news side. But I'm too new in the QL scene to provide something usefull at the moment. I'm still working on some smaller programs (a small game, a few tools ..), but in the near future I will start with some serious game development and after this i will sort out which project I start next. The domain should be an problem, you can count on me @donation Regards Karsten -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von sinclairql Gesendet: Samstag, 7. Januar 2006 21:49 An: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Betreff: [ql-users] QL News Hi, and happy New Year I am working in the second version of my Spanish Sinclair QL site. For this new web I have used a CMS (content management system), it's not visible completely yet. When I activate my new web, I will use a new domain name for it. Then the sinclairql.info domain will be free for use, and it is paid until December 3 of 2006. I am looking for some interested in participating in a new Web of QL news for the international QL community, in English, of course, that compiled all news on QL. This Web it would be managed with WordPress (http://wordpress.org/). WordPress is a news publication system Blog type. Its use is extremely simple and allows the registered users to publish news, reason why anyone could participate contributing the news or leaving commentaries. The use of WordPress requires MySQL and PHP, but this is not a problem, because we can count on space Web in www.speccy.org with both. Summarizing. We have space, Web and domain, and I would take care to install WordPress and to update it when it is necessary, but I am not very in contact with the international QL community and my language (spanish) is a problem too. Obvious, this Web is for all the QL users, and only for the news and new features, reason why this web does not make competition to others, but that it will serve to unify all important QL news in a single Web. The control of the domain and the site would be in the hands of the administrator of contents, or those people who the community chooses. The only disadvantage will be the following payment of the renovation of the sinclairql.info domain in 2007 and following years. At the moment the domain costs 15 Euro per year. This price, I think, can be obtained with exclusive QL publicity or QL community donations. I believe that a site of the news centralized will help to people like I that we are just a short time in contact with the community, but which we want to know what happens in the QL scene. Tell me your opinion, and if you are interested. If you are interested, we can test all necessary in few days.

I warn you I am a very harsh taskmaster when it comes to Sudoku generating programs. There is one on the current issue of Computer Active which uses Excel. I have had a look at it and am not impressed. It uses techniques for generating grids that I had experimented with for the QL and rejected as not be true Sudoku. It also determines difficulty level by the number of numbers left in the grid although this is only one of the factors. Most Sudoku puzzles I have seen have between 25 and 35 numbers on the grid. The Computer Active one had 45 Easy; 36 Medium ; 27 Difficult. I shall look forward to receiving your Sudoku generating article before the deadline date 19th February 2006 ;-) Best Wishes, Geoff ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
