Hi Dilwyn,

I did get an earlier version running once, of uQLx-Win32, on a WIN98 machine, with the help of Phoebus at that time.

These days this would be a good candidate for being put onto a CD ROM or a Memory Stick, if the Cygwin is able to be distributed on other media.

Because, as you say, there is a lot that has to go with it.

Editing the Boot file set up though should be no particular problem for a QL User.


I've put the latest version of uQLx for 32-bit Windows from Phoebus Dokos onto my website.

You'll need the Cygwin distribution to provide the Linux-like environment: www.cygwin.com Be careful, it can be a huge download of 50MB with 6,478 files to install as I found to my cost...oh to know what I'm doing with Linux and Cygwin :-((

I never could get the previous versions of uQLx-Win32 working, and I can't get this one running either unless someone is kind enough to write a step by step guide for people like me with no knowledge of Linux (keeps complaining of missing .dll files).

Anyway, it's there for those brave enough to have a go, at http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/emu/index.html - you can download either a conventional zipped version or a smaller 7-zip version for people who use the free 7-zip utility.

Go on, give it a go, then you can tell me what I'm doing wrong...
