[Ql-Users] QL-SD driver

[Wolf via Ql-Users]

Hi all,

The new driver for this has been updated, to remove the rename bug found 
by Martyn Hill and to make use of more than one card.


The syntax of the card_init and win_drive commands has changed, to take 
into account the fat that more than one card slot might be available.

Have fun

Re: [Ql-Users] New WIN/SDC driver: RENAME curiosity...

[Martyn Hill via Ql-Users]

...and, true to form, within hours of reporting the issue, Wolfgang has 
delivered a fix for me to test - and it works!


I understand that it may be another 24hours or so before he gets around 
to uploading the fixed version to the original site.


Thank you WL!
