Hi Graeme,

Thanks for pointing this out, will be fixed in the next version.

As a stopgap measure, before using the devices menu, make the window 
bigger than the default size of 512*256 - simply using the "double the 
window size" item in the config menu will suffice.

[Ql-Users] ADV770 - Colossal Cave

2017-02-21 Thread Dilwyn Jones

Graeme Gregory's port of the ADV770 version of Adventure or Colossal Cave now 
available to download zipped from 
http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/games/adventures/index.html (Adventure Games page on my 
site)

Remember that the executable alone is a massive 1.2MB, so it needs a minimum of 
a Gold Card or an emulator set to 2MB or RAM or more.

Wonder if this takes the title of the largest QL executable so far?

Hi Norman,

Hi Peter,

Maybe! My original intent was just to explore the qxl.win file. Then it got 
updated to extract files. I never intended it to do any updating on the grounds 
that a small error in my code could destroy someone's work. 

However,  if and when I get time,  I will look into it.


Cheers,
Norm.

[Ql-Users] ZX8301 explored - facts and figures

2017-02-21 Thread Urs Koenig (QL)

Hi QLers,

the ZX8301 is the 'Master Chip' of the Sinclair QL Professional Computer.
Its purpose is documented in the Sinclair QL Service Manual. See:

http://www.sinclairql.net/srv/qlsm1.html#s1-p6

The chip designed by David Karlin and manufactured by Plessey. See:

http://www.sinclairql.net/story/The_long_lost_interview_with_David_Karlin.ht
m

There are two known editions of the chip, the CLA2310 and the later CLA2345.
Their mask differs.

Way back in May 2014 I explored the die of a Sinclair ZX8301 CLA2345 chip
with my newly acquired BRESSER MicroSet microscope. Another QLer is
currently exploring a CLA2310. This motivated me to review my work and
publish the material (both video and stills) I've shot using the microscope.

The QXLWIN tool never updates a qxl.win file. It can read and extract files 
from a qxl.win, to Windows or Linux (or Mac?) But not the other way around.

Graeme Gregory has "brutalised" (as he puts it on github) the sources to
bring them up to date. New binaries are available for 32- and 64-bit x86
systems, as well as ARM (6/7/8). Includes binaries ready to run.
Includes documentation from Timothy Swenson to get you started along
with a small QXL.win file.

The binaries are available to download from the emulators page on my
website http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/emu/index.html#uQLx_for_Linux_etc.

while the sources are available from the Sinclair QL Github at
https://github.com/SinclairQL/uqlx-fork

The sources are available from my website too in case of difficulty, but
I recommend you get them from the github repository to make sure you get
the latest sources.
