Dilwyn Jones ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm I've just remembered, XOVER is part of Media Manager Special Edition disk I have, and as mentioned, it is for alien disk formats. It comes up on the main menu options as MS-DOS/TOS File Copier. Bryan H UK ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm The other alternative is of course Discover / Multi-discover which is definitely freeware (subject to registration). Again the issue is that the user needs a program on disk to use rather than a download - I will offer him my copy of PC Conqueror complete with manual. -- Rich Mellor RWAP Services http://www.rwapsoftware.co.uk http://www.rwapservices.co.uk -- Try out our new site: http://sellmyretro.com ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm

George Hi George, Rich asked me to put the SuperForth package on my website. At the moment we have a non-searchable scanned manual. If you could email me the documents I could compare them to the scanned manual to see if they are the same ones, if so I could add them to the package on my website.
