I have the original software called SMSQ somewhere at home - I'll search
for it when I get home.
There is a more modern version of the operating system software called
SMSQ/E, the 'e' standing for 'enhanced'. Main difference being that it has
the 'pointer environment' windowing system included. A
Thanks to the dedicated hard work of Martin Head, I've been able to
upload two complete QL PD libraries to my website, one containing
nearly 150 floppy disk images, the other about 480 disk images. Giving
a total of over 600 floppy disk images of QL software, albeit there is
a lot of overlap
Thanks for that, the same error crept into all my postings on
Facebook, my blog and QL Forum too - at least Jiri was more on the
ball than I was <>

Exactly. Even websites like mine where I don't personally put cookies on
users' machines may be caught, because of things like the Custom Google
Search Engine, the SiteLevel search, and any other "third party" bits on

Horrible situation. Bye bye all QL websites. I've just put a rental house
for sale because of the ever increasing legislation and costs - as have
MANY small portfolio landlords - so well intentioned change in the UK will
lead to a housing rental shortage and increased rentals instead of making
"Red tape" existed because companies and individuals couldn't be
trusted to be legal, decent and honest by themselves. Laws and
regulations were introduced for a reason. So when politicians use the

expect an ulterior motive.
I've issued the first update to my Launchpad v2 package for nearly a decade.

1. Go to http://www.dilwyn.me.uk/gen/launchpad/demo/demo.html
2. Scroll down the page until you find the "Launchpad 2.12 Update"
section.
Thank you for offering, but my experience of domain names in the last 10
years means I never want to bother with them again.

When my troublesome domain name comes to an end on 13th March, the
dilwyn.me.uk QL site will shut down.
But thanks to the nice Mr Heaton who runs QL Forum, what is currently
the backup site will become the new QL Homepage.
The URL of the new site is https://dilwyn.qlforum.co.uk/index.html and
There's been some mention that those nice people at QL Forum will be
looking to organise a 40th birthday event at some point. No idea where
or when though.

Welcome back Don. I remember reading articles by you in IQLR years ago.
I'd seriously suggest joining QL Forum (qlforum.co.uk) too, if you
have not already done so. And if you're on Facebook, try the Sinclair
QL For Everyone group. Loads of QL users on both sites.
Best wishes.

Afraid not. Already had something else planned for both the original
and revised dates.
BTW, my Q68 is the v1.05 ROM loader. Given some reports of
Dan Abbot (or possibly Abbott, unsure of surname)?

I wonder if part of the reason that this arose is that some BASICs
from that era just returned a null string "" if string slicing errors
arose, without an error message and people remembered that?
While that was probably convenient for the casual programmer, it must
have made debugging difficult

Two new softwares from Alain Haoui:

QubLink v1.04 is a PE driven utility program allowing an easy way to
manage hard and soft drive linking on different QL systems.
It is in some ways a multi-platform variant of the well known
utilities WINLINK (from G.Underwood) and QIRC (from
Wonder if Norman was thinking of the QPTR guide/ Info on Config in
there - in the updates "https://dilwyn.qlforum.co.uk/docs/manuals/QPTR
Updates.pdf"
and (in my printed rather old edition 5 copy) page 151 onward, CONFIG
has its own section
Are you referring to a Config user guide (I think that was with QMenu
or one of Jochen's othepackages), or the programming details?
I probably hve both here, but would need to search for them unless
someone happens to have them to hand.

1.05 - That's the version that caused me all the Minerva problems. My Q68
is on its way to Derek to reprogram to another version, which should then
tell me if all the problems are down to the Q68 version, or if something
else is at play.
Before sending it off, I gave it one fresh try of the most
or something else.

Thank you for letting us know. George contributed a lot to the QL

I was given this file a few years ago. I'm sorry, I don't know if it's

Q-EMULATOR TRAP CALL
Use Trap #1 with D0.L = -26 to get some emulator info. The trap is
designed to be usable by other emulators, but I don't think anybody
else is using it, so it works
I think I forgot to mention that under the QemuLator specific version
3.38 from Daniele's website, the MACHINE function in SBASIC returns 26
for QemuLator. I don't know if the Gold Card and Aurora versions also
do this, sorry.

Thank you for doing this Norman.
Most if not all of George's QL software is either on my website, or in
a folder on my PC's hard drive. What I don't know is whether I had the
most recent versions - the site closed before I could check.
George would put a number at the end of the zip files to
