I approached Fred Toussi a while ago about doing an upgrade to Text 87 and suggested that he could produce a new version using the new colours and adding simple stuff like access to pointer driven menus for file selection (via Menu_rext). He was not keen. I suggested he gave us the sources and we could get someone to do it but he regarded his sources as being secret . Ah yes, but was he offered serious money? Qliberator was another story but Ian Stewart, who was my only contact, had only a small part in writing it. The other author, whose name escapes me, had long since disappeared and the sources were not available. I have now no contact for Ian so when the last few copies I have are exhausted I cannot sell it. I have not sold a copy for some time so I am not too worried but I would have liked to get it updated. -- This is really disappointing, because, if the sources were available they would probably be relatively cheap to buy. It would have been a valuable contribution to the future of the QL. But again, would money help in a search for the source code? Don't forget I am not suggesting asking people for the source code, but buying it. No trader could afford to do this, because it would have to be done at a loss. Quanta does have the resources and this could become one way in which Quanta could better serve the QL community. Geoff
Re: [ql-users] problem with the new C68 pieces for WMAN
The RELOC_START entry is in the version of the startup module that is used if you are using LD v2 with c68. The RELOC_START is a symbol that is automatically generated by LD v2.

Looking at my original LIBC_A file, I see it in there but I don't see it in the new version with George's updates.Any ideas?I'm sorry if something I have done with LIBC_A has made RELOC_START disappear. Just to check I went back over every version of LIBC_A I have from 1999 onwards. There is no sign of RELOC_START in any of them.I wonder where that came from?George

[ql-users] Sprite Program
Can someone please remind me - where can I get the new sprite designer program for Pointer Environment.

This program seems easy enough to use, but has no manual alas and I can see no way of saving the design as a blob and a pattern which is what I really wanted to do (as EasySprite attempts to do).
