Hi,
I've noticed some inconsistent handling of text files in QPC2. The
problem was reading text files with both carriage return and line feed
at the end of line. Several programs could read these files from the
qxl.win drive without complaint. However the same file being read from a

A very good solution. I wonder if this new device could work on a
directory path with shortened directory names to maintain more backward
computability. For example if one was at root (win1_) and created a new

The issue is rather timing of the CPU with ULA. There is no QL emulator
that does it. Well, there was no need for it.
Well there is the MESS emulator
Hi Dilwyn
Yes it is big! I wrote a few drivers for MAME which MESS is a
derivative. It was very easy to remove
unwanted drivers and recompile. To use first download the mess0125b.zip
binaries and unzip it. You should
place the QL ROM's in the roms subdirectory, but I found I could only

Its seems highly unstable at the moment, but it does aim to emulate

Hi
There is also the MESS emulator. This emulates many of the old 1980's
machines including the QL. However
I'm not sure what the present status of the QL drivers are (it did boot
last time I looked). If anyone is looking
for a pocket QL they might look at taking the MESS QL drivers and add

I'm using 3.33. The problem now is that I can't reproduce the behavior.
At the time clearing the
