Thanks to Bob Spelten, an update of the BMP graphics converter is now available

Version 1.04 fixes a problem with conversion of Mode 33 images on Q68 (and

Hi Wolf.
Thanks.
I use eComic, eMagazine, ePeriodical etc interchangeably. My wife calls all
magazines comics, so it sort of stuck.

Hi Dave,
strangely enough, I read that the 8th bit allowed parity as, the then, top
notch paper tapes could cope with an extra (8th) bit and it was put to good use

Hello to all (both?) my faithful readers. The latest edition of the somewhat
irregular eComic about QL Assembly Language Programming is out now. Get it from:

You only need the PDF (to read) and the Code.zip file, to save you typing.
Enjoy.
