Thanks, Daniele. So that's where I must have read it before.

Subject: Re: [Ql-Users] QLPAK files
Trying again, all formatting was lost in my last message:
> Does anyone have information on how to create the QLPAK files for
> QemuLator?
Marcos Cruz reverse engineered the format in this thread:
http://www.qlforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=160&p=852&hilit=qlpak#p852
In practice, these steps should be sufficient for most programs:
1. copy the .QCF (ql configuration, specifying emulation options) file you
want to use in the same directory as the QL program
2. may need to edit the .QCF with a text editor, for example to remove
references to file paths on you machine. Don't associate anything to MDV
slots, by default the QLPAK will be mounted as MDV1
3. ZIP all the files together
4. rename from ZIP to QLPAK
5. Optional: if posting on a web page, associate the MIME type
"application/x-qdos-qlpak" to the link. This is what enables the browser to
automatically start Q-emuLator when clicking on the link. Hosting providers
may disallow arbitrary MIME types by default, but there is usually a way to
add new ones.
For more complex cases, there are .QCF commands to load a ROM from the QLPAK
or to mount different parts of the QLPAK to different microdrives.
Thanks,
Daniele
