If you'd like to test whether you are running on the Q-emuLator-specific
version of SMSQ/E (file named SMSQ_QEM, that can only run on Q-emuLator), you
can use MACHINE and check for code 26.

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

A Q-emulator update is available for OS X
(http://www.terdina.net/ql/MacQL.html).
The emulator has a trial mode now that allows unregistered users to run QL
software on it. In trial mode, emulation is limited to a 128 KB QL and some
advanced features are not available.
