Well, I've been the sole maintainer of both packages for the last 10+
years and have decided that it's about time for QPAC2 to be released
freely. Haven't even thought of QPAC1 because apart from sysmon that's
pretty much useless, but yeah, why not. Have at it.

Cheers, Marcel

Great - many thanks for the update

[Ql-Users] QPC2 v4.02 released

2014-02-09 Thread Marcel Kilgus
Hi everybody.

QPC2 v4.02 has just been released. I have only recently converted to
Windows 7 and found that the SMSQ/E soft reset using
CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+TAB didn't work anymore as Windows now uses
CTRL+ALT+TAB for one of its many task switchers (ignoring the SHIFT
key). It wasn't exactly easy, but I finally found a workaround for
this.

Also, QPC_VER$ was broken on QPC2v4.

Includes SMSQ/E v3.19 with fixed appsup-window support.

Also, there is a new qpcdemo.win with updated software on it. Plus it
now includes QPAC2, as every proper system should have that ;-)

Cheers, Marcel

I need to deal with people in the UK and EU mostly so I think this is a really 
elegant solution. I can also take paypal or cash. 

Lots of exciting things going on at Sandy Mansion!

Re: [Ql-Users] Concept 3D

It works on q-emulator - what are you trying to run it on?

One of the problems with the original version was that it used a file called
'con' which SMSQ/e and Minerva don't like.  I think that has been renamed in the
distribution from Dilwyn's site.

2014-02-09 Thread Wolfgang Lenerz

Hi all,

SMSQ/E v. 3.19 is out.

This contains Marcel's bugfix for the csize in appsub windows.

This is also and foremost the first version on my stite that also 
incorporates the QPC specific sources allowing you to compile SMSQE for QPC.


The "binaries" file already contains an SMSQ/E v.3.19 file for QPC.


Have fun!

[Ql-Users] UltimIDE and other updates...

2014-02-09 Thread Dave Park
From: http://sinclairql.com/wp/

Work has been ongoing, and we now have a preliminary schematic to work
from. The next stage will be to layout a prototype PCB for testing. We've
managed to source most of the components already so once testing is
complete, we can quickly go to production.

In a separate development we have been offered a new, highly developed V3
driver. The driver is in beta and will undergo heavy testing. This driver
includes innovations that will be exciting for some users. Firstly, it
allows raw access to the media so you can access alien file formats. This
leaves the door open for others to write software to handle almost any
format you can imagine. Second, we're hoping to arrange for this driver to
be made available to existing QubIDE owners at very little cost. V2 QubIDE
owners would just need a new EPROM. V1 owners would also need to replace
their GALs with V2 GALs.

[image: A snapshot of the softloaded version of the V3 driver.]
*A snapshot of the softloaded version of the V3 driver.*

In other news, I have sourced parts and PCBs for some Minerva Mk IIs. I
will assemble and test them, then make them available with or without the
I2C cable. Price will be £45 with I2C cable and £40 without, including
shipping worldwide. They will be available in mid-March, but I will allow
pre-orders so you can ensure you get one. QUANTA members get a 10% discount
- to find the coupon code, register in the support
forum and
let me know you're a QUANTA member. Proceeds are going into the hardware
development fund.

A note on currencies: I price these items in USD ($), and the store
converts these prices in real time to UKP (£) or Euros (EURO). Because
currencies fluctuate in relative value, all prices are approximate.

Finally, the battery adaptors have been mailed to me and I am just waiting
for them to arrive. As soon as they do, I shall post photographs.
