Wolfgang Hi Wolfgang, No objections - I never use xxx_use. I find full paths easy to use, there is no confusion about where to find save files. Simple, to match my feeble brain.

Hi Wolfgang, Many thanks again! MACHINE keyword with 20, 30 solves the problem.

[Ql-Users] SMSQmulator on Linux
Hi Wolfgang, Many thanks to you all for SMSQmulator. Brilliant job! SMSQmulator seems to work very well, using the boot supplied, or my QPC2 boot to start it. The only problems with my QPC2 boot were trivial - no QPC_SYNCSCRAP (!##!) and menu_rext must be a non-QPC2 version. I suspect uQLx (with Minerva rom) QPC2 (running under 'wine') will get much less usage in future. Regards, Alex ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
Re: [Ql-Users] SMSQmulator DATE$
Hi Wolfgang, Thanks for your response. My 2 minor hiccups are mentioned below. Like other folks, I was delighted to plug in my existing qxl.win and get a functional SMSQ with my existing QPC2 boot.

I do not know - I think it was for communication with M$ file-systems (useful in Linux), and M$ software (that I do not use). I'm really rusty on using the menu extension things, but next weekend, I could have a look at that. I have used the same menu extensions as I have always used (I just use my old QPC boot on my normal qxl.win file) - I wasn't even aware there is a special QPC version (what's different?). I get a msg during boot-up similar to: This version is only licenced for QPC. - referring to v768. I am using menu_rext v765 for SMSQmulator. If there is a unique flag for SMSQmulator, I would use it in my QPC2/SMSQmulator boot to switch menu_rext versions, and to turn off the SYNCSCRAP. ver$ gives HBA (for SMSQ), on SMSQmulator and QPC2, of course. Could you change it to HBA-S perhaps? = ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
Re: [Ql-Users] GWASS is updated

Hi George, Thanks for the update to GWASS. Do you have a non-SMSQ version of Sud? I would like to run it in uQLx (Minerva rom) and have not tried hacking it myself yet. Sud on QPC2 has had a lot of use! Regards, Alex ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
