No, ALCHP is only present in Toolkit 2 extensions. From SuperBASIC, you can use RESPR instead as long as no other jobs are running. Snag is that RESPR memory cannot be released later, only be a reset.

There was talk of Toolkit 2 being released freely now or soon. If this is really rthe case, I'd happily put a copy of v2.12 (the most recent ROM image I have) on my website for download or email one privately if anyone (Roy? Tony?) can truly confirm this is the case.

Use RESPR instead of ALCHP for now, until I know if it's OK to send you a TK2. I think QemuLator and QPC2 can load a Toolkit 2 ROM image, although I can't remember the commands needed from memory.

I imagine any toolkit with ALCHP extension it might be OK, there's a few in the Toolkits page on my website.

The first item there is an ALCHP extension.

Any other old games available?

There's quite a lot of games on my website
www.dilwyn.uk6.net/games/index.html

Cavern is there. Not sure if this is the same game as you mention (I
think there was a commercial game called Cavern and a PD game called
Cavern and I can't remember which was which.

Thanks! The Cavern game on your site is the correct one! I downloaded QemuLator and JM ROMs, but I get an error in line 300 in the cavern_bas: r=ALCHP(72000): error in expression. As I remember the ALCHP command reserves some memory, about 72Kb in this line. It seems to not find the command at all. I thought ALCHP was a standard command in the old QDOS. Am I wrong?
