Actually you can test it, Tony. You have a QDOS emulator running don't you? If you do make a TKII image that can be LRESPR'd and the code works to create directories please let me have it for distribution.
I only have a TKII rom with qemulator - which does not have MAKE_DIR. I don't know how to extract the TKII from an interface.
Just to add a further spanner to the works - weren't the level 2 drivers originally supplied as a replacement chip for the Trump Card - IIRC that was there first appearance - and they were by Jurgen Flakenberg, not TT (or have I got this mixed up with something else).No, definitely QJump as Jochen said. It may be that Falkenburg distributed a replacement chip but I do not recall his actual code being any good at all. His HDD interface had really awful software which was actually a lot bigger than it said it was and wrote into the video area. OK when you had a standard QL but when the Aurora came along it caused a lot of problems. Stuart always said he stole some of the code from the Miracle Interface without asking or paying for it.
I heard that too.
I don't know anything about his firmware, but I have a -very- low opinion of his hardware. His standard of pcb manufacture, for instance, was quite laughable.
