No problem now that I know, as David says, anyone wanting to use the Stick on different computers only needs to take the registration code with them and remember to unregister the copy after use on that other PC. The QL On A Stick is running OK on two separate PCs at the moment, my Win XP machine and my wife's old Win98 laptop. All 3 emulators are running OK on it so far, everything using relative path names so the drive letter isn't an issue (it's K: on my PC, and E: on my wife's laptop so that seems a reasonable test of it), and I've set up a QXL.WIN with some useful QL software on it and will be copying this into the native file system for QLay and QemuLator, as I don't think the unregistered QemuLator can read QXL.WIN. Users of the QPC2demo version get Marcel's demo .WIN file with all its colourful demos. The QemuLator demo files are also pretty good - the 3D animation one ran very smoothly on my wife's old laptop, for example. Next step is to try adding uQLx for Windows, but Malcolm's experience suggests it might not be easy. Some people may say this is a bit of a time wasting exercice since most of us are capable of copyign our emulators onto a USB drive and setting it all up. The QL On A Stick is just a way of helping those less confident users to get used to the idea of a QL emulator, with it all set up and ready to go. Anyway, all being well, I'll be demonstrating the QL On A Stick at the Quanta meeting in Birmingham next month once I know I've got that day off work..... -- Dilwyn Jones _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
