What do they think of it? Does it allow drag and drop or any other file handling functions like Windows Explorer does? qdt is a wonderful piece of software. it does not yet support drgn'n drop, but i think this is being done in these days. 2. If QDT doesn't have a file handler, are there other graphic front-end file handlers that can be used in QPC2? 3. I vaguely remember QPTR - am I right that this just has functions/handlers rather than being a full windowing suite? i do not understand file-handler (due to my bad english?!?) 4. Is Easy Pointer 4 anything to do with the above? no. easypointer is a programing utility to write pointerdriven progs. I'd like to have a snazzy interface rather than typing everything in. This will be important, I feel, if QPC/QXL/QL are to live for longer. thats what you get with QDT. I'll be interested in the reply, it may cause me to part with some money for newer QL programs! wolfgang -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFCjhG1L0KE6Q1yFDcRAn1dAJwLeidj8dyJI3510OUoTmI4tDbORgCgtLYi y2oC6tTeXn+rZd8OQ10yISA= =vqRe -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm

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).

This does work subject to the limitation of making sure you don't get an error.
