This is correct, thank you Dilwyn!

If you'd like to test whether you are running on the Q-emuLator-specific 
version of SMSQ/E (file named SMSQ_QEM, that can only run on Q-emuLator), you 
can use MACHINE and check for code 26.

On any version of QDOS or SMSQ/E, you can test whether you are running on 
Q-emuLator by setting D0=-26 (notice the minus sign), D1=1 and calling TRAP #1. 
On return, if the error code (in D0) is zero and D1.B is 1, you are running on 
Q-emuLator.


Thanks Daniele
but how do it in basic ?

"RETurn not in procedure or function"

What is causing this error in my Basic?
The error has bugged me for weeks now.
It even seems able to move around (see below).
I have checked for the obvious and didn't find any mismatches.
Also XREF, BasicLinker or QLIB did not report any.

Below a summary of the program section from where the error occurs.

   DEF FN GetScreen(..)
    :...
    IF hd =10
     MC_ProcA parms..
    ELSE
     er%= MC_FnB(..)
     :...
    END IF
    :...
    IF NOT rn% : er%= SetDBS(..)
    REM > rn% is set if the screen file is in the database
    :...
    RETurn 0
   END DEF
   :...
   DEF FN SetDBS(..)
    :...
    er= FDB_SET(..)
    :...
    PRINT er
    REturn er
   END DEF
   :

The program is numberless and testrun from QD with the F10 Sbas/qd thing.
The code for the MC_ProcA and MC_FnB keywords has also successfully been
tested in other Basics.

MC_FnB nicely returns zero in er% and not one of the possible negative 
values.
SetDBS does some DBAS handling and doesn't return an error in er, as 
tested just before the RETurn line which produces the "RETurn not..." 
error. Checking the database confirms that SetDBS works properly.


Strangely when I REM the SetDBS call, the same error is given in another 
FN when GetScreen has long been left by its own RETurn.


Also the MC_ProcA route does not generate the error when doing the 
SetDBS call or in the other Sbas FN if skipping SetDBS.


When I compile the Basic with QLIB v3.36 there are no errors reported 
and the compiled _obj executes without producing this error.


Of course the Sbas version differs slightly from the _obj but this has 
mainly to do with reporting variable values. Also the Basic extensions 
as for the MC_xxx ones above are LRESPR'd in the Sbas run and $$asmb'd 
by Qlib.


The numbered Basic as generated by BasicLinker and then run from job 0
produces the same error as run from QD.

So what could be messing up my RETurns?

Bob

Hi,

just in case not everyone is on the QL forum, there is an exciting new
software development underway. "The Pawn"  and other "Magnetic Scroll"
games are back. And this time not just text but with graphics! The first
supported machine is the Q68, executables are already downloadable, on
page 3:

https://qlforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=3=3033

Work for other platforms, even the BBQL, is ongoing. Definitely worth a
look, impressive!

hello

there is a annoying bug in the screen handling with UQLX 2018(a)
it only manifests if zoom is to 2 eg ./qm -z 2

when using pointer programs like QPC2 Files and QD
the cursor jumps to the middle of the upper left corner

the versions 2012 and 2017 are ok
but the sources of 2017 are no longer on github

any solutions ?

[Ql-Users] ZIP to MDV / MDI Convert2_xxx

2019-03-09 Thread desin via Ql-Users

have tried to compile it from the source last year
found the syntax of libzlib has changed
but i have no clue about C

so I'm stuck with the MDI driver/tools
but i can't get the convert2_xxx commands to work

e.g.
make_mdi ram1_test_img,Test
mount_mdi 1,ram1_test_img
copy win1_test_code mdi1_
copy win1_test_boot,mdi1_
unmount_mdi1_
convert2_qlay ram1_test_img,ram1_test_mdv
 not found

hope it helps

Is there a length limit to the editable string (suggestion$) in the

if you need more use this

careful with menu_rext pre 8.04
the string length (name$(nr)="1234567890")
must not exceed the the given length
(dim name$(nr,length)
otherwise your system will crash

100 CLEAR
110 nr = 0 : DIM name$(nr,60), name%(nr)
120 :
125 name$(nr) ="12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890"
130 name%(nr) = 16384
140 :
170 :
180 REPeat loop
190 REMark this works with menu_rext 7.66
200 :
210 REMark r = LIST_SELECT ("Test",name$,name%,)
220 :
230 REMark workaround for 8.0x but not 7.66
235 :
240 REMark r = LIST_SELECT ("   Test

245 :
250 SELect ON r
