Yes, good luck with the extra programming. Like you, I haven't made any of my own software use any of these features, as mine are coded is SBASIC and compiled with Turbo. Then, again, I just don't have the time for programming anymore ... :-( I was making progress with programming in C using c68, and that has now gone too ... :-( I can only envy Dilwyn and others, who seem to be applying and experimenting with all of the latest features. Although it is all a part of the fun ... as a "consumer" ..... :-) PS - If you are a Quanta member you may have now received an early review that I wrote of the new version of Quill. Which adds another dimension to a QL "golden oldie". >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Malcolm Cadman" > >Yes, adding the Menu Extensions is of course the other "opus" that can >work on ... :-) -- Malcolm Cadman _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
