I'll dig them out.  How can I get them to you?

Hi,

Does any one know the commercial status of the DP Collection.

The rights to the various programs in the DP Collection reverted to the 
software authors when Digital Precision ceased trading.


Some have released their programs into the public domain (or as 
freeware), but the vast majority remains protected by copyright

Hi Michael,


I have both CPORT and CFIX.  I find that CFIX doesn't work correctly in QPC2,

Something for me to find out later then I suspect!


so to get around that problem, I use Q-emulator for that one.

That would work for me too. I wonder what the difference is?

Hmmm. I use 48M. But I can reduce it if necessary.


There's also some other related files.
I'll dig them out.  How can I get them to you?
There's no need - thank you. One I'm not sure of the legal status, even 
though it is a Chas Dillon program, he didn't put the source code etc 
out there when he "opened" his other stuff, and two, I have the DP 
collection and CPORT_zip is on disc 03. So I have it already.


Thanks again though for your offer.


Cheers,
Norm.

[Ql-Users] CPORT???

2017-11-01 Thread Norman Dunbar via Ql-Users

Afternoon All,

I used to have CPORT on my hard drive for QPC2 but for some reason I 
seem to have deleted it, plus, my original disc - floppy - is no more 
having been one of hundreds that no longer worked.


Luckily I have working copies of the DP Collection, so I'm able to get 
it back from there! Phew.


I've checked the web site for the Chas Dillon sources of Turbo etc, but 
CPORT isn't there, sadly, and the QL Wiki lists the source code as 
missing in action, so I'm wondering if anyone out there actually knows 
Chas, or, if you know where Chas hides the source code and if there is 
the slightest chance that it will be made available?


I suspect the odds are slim, but you never know if you don't ask.


Cheers,
Norm
