This appears to be standard practice and the Quanta publication was no exception. John Taylor JG I would have to bow to someone with far greater knowledge than I have with regards to copyright and licences. I wasn't even a Quanta member at the time; however intriguing you find the situation. I have merely quoted from the copies that I either own or am holding on behalf of Quanta for resale in an effort to shed some light on the situation. However, as current demand (nil) is far less than availability - from various sources -does the question really require further comment? Now, should this situation reverse itself (demand greater than supply) and you know of the whereabouts of some past documentation on the topic, we would all be please to hear about it.

[ql-users] QPC2 v3.30
After months of development and beta testing I'm proud to announce that QPC2 version 3.30 officially went live. As usual the update is free for all users of QPC2 version 3. Get it from http://www.kilgus.net/qpc/ Main changes are a much faster emulation core and uQLx compatible TCP/IP functionality. Furthermore there are some bug fixes and smaller enhancements. It comes complete with SMSQ/E v3.09. Full changes list: 3.30 Full IP (TCP/UDP) support! Mostly compatible to uQLx TCP/IP interface. 3 little words: Fastest! QPC! Ever! Up to 40% faster than 3.20! Partially re-designed QPC-SMSQ/E interface. Old SMSQ/E version are therefore completely incompatible! Yet another fix in the PAR dialog. Hope that was it now. Raised number of PAR ports to 8. Still only 4 are configurable through the config dialog though, power users with more than 4 printers need to use PAR_SETPRINTER or directly configure the SMSQE.BIN file. Ignores all keys while one of the Windows keys is pressed. New command QPC_WINDOWSIZE x,y to set the size of the QPC window. New commands x=PAR_GETFILTER(port) and PAR_SETFILTER port,x to read/write the use printer filter flag of a PAR port. Fixed some repaint problems (black screen). Does not crash anymore when sound is set to disabled. Fixed problem with volume control sliders. Fixed bug in 8-bit accelerated screen routines. Fixed problem with screen accesses that crossed the VRAM border. *** Needs at least SMSQ/E V3.09 Marcel ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
