[Ql-Users] Books and manuals

2008-11-21 Thread sinclairql
Hello,

In our website, we have begun to scan our spanish books and manuals to
preserve them in PDF format.

I think it would be a good idea to do also with the original manuals of
programs and a few essential books in English or other languages.

Is there already a repository of scanned documents with QL?

What do you think? What would have problems? Besides the poor quality of
some scans and the tedious work involved in doing so.

Regards,

Javier Guerra

I think Digital Precision did something with sprites years ago. Can't 
remember the name though - or if it was included in the DP 'Package' 
that was created just before Freddy packed it all in. Dilwyn is bound 
to know - he is the font of all knowledge!

Try to LBYTES the file and SEXEC it with e.g. 1024 bytes of data stack.
If it would crash, try to increase it

it's a good idea

Another cuestion:
this code will run whit a RGB TTL monitor?


Absolutely, as you can see it my QL is connected to Commodore 1084
monitor.
  

The 1084 or 1084S are TTL monitors?

This should be supported - wonder if anyone would be interested in

Great!

Can you send me, or link in the site, the compiled routine in .zip?

or how can I uncompress the .7z in the QL?

With “*Feed to Javascript*“, you can show, in real time, the news that 
sinclairql.info serves by means of feed, and you do not need to be 
registered for it.

*Feed2JS* is an open project that gratuitously serves feeds contents, 
and it only needs:

   2. Use the simple tool to build the JavaScript command that will
  display it (selection of the options to show).
   3. Optionally select the style it up to look pretty.

You can find more information in:

This it is the URL of the sinclairql.info feeds:

The system even allows to put your own service of conversion of feeds,

Opsss...

I have done a test to verify the problem, and exactly, do not receive 
the mail.

Today I will try to solve the problem, or I will send you a temporary 
password (the passwords are coded inside the database, and I do not know 
them) that you can change in your Profile of the web.

Thank you for your patience.

No Tony, I feel it. It supposes a lot of work for us to translate the site.

Some time ago we think to do it, but we think that the results would not 
be very good.

One of the advantages of the new site of news sinclairql.info will be 
that you can know the innovations of the QL Spanish webs, and of the 
other languages, I wait.

It's more simple write news that change our web to adapt them to two 
languages.

[ql-users] QL News

2006-01-07 Thread sinclairql
Hi, and happy New Year

I am working in the second version of my Spanish Sinclair QL site. For 
this new web I have used a CMS (content management system), it's not 
visible completely yet.

When I activate my new web, I will use a new domain name for it. Then 
the sinclairql.info domain will be free for use, and it is paid until 
December 3 of 2006.

I am looking for some interested in participating in a new Web of QL 
news for the international QL community, in English, of course, that 
compiled all news on QL.

This Web it would be managed with WordPress (http://wordpress.org/). 
WordPress is a news publication system Blog type. Its use is extremely 
simple and allows the registered users to publish news, reason why 
anyone could participate contributing the news or leaving commentaries.

The use of WordPress requires MySQL and PHP, but this is not a problem, 
because we can count on space Web in www.speccy.org with both.

Summarizing. We have space, Web and domain, and I would take care to 
install WordPress and to update it when it is necessary, but I am not 
very in contact with the international QL community and my language 
(spanish) is a problem too.

Obvious, this Web is for all the QL users, and only for the news and new 
features, reason why this web does not make competition to others, but 
that it will serve to unify all important QL news in a single Web.

The control of the domain and the site would be in the hands of the 
administrator of contents, or those people who the community chooses.

The only disadvantage will be the following payment of the renovation of 
the sinclairql.info domain in 2007 and following years. At the moment 
the domain costs 15 Euro per year. This price, I think, can be obtained 
with exclusive QL publicity or QL community donations.

I believe that a site of the news centralized will help to people like I 
that we are just a short time in contact with the community, but which 
we want to know what happens in the QL scene.

Tell me your opinion, and if you are interested.

If you are interested, we can test all necessary in few days.

Greetings
