Rather than re-writing existing information, what follows are extracts from a couple information leaflets already available. I, and many others who are familiar with concepts of Amadeus Interlink, believe this product to be of exceptional significance to the Sinclair QL
An Author's Response The recent review of QINDEX (Vol. 3 Issue 6) contains some errors, possibly due to not understanding the manual properly – and for the record, I would like to make a few corrective and/or explanatory comments:- Firstly, the two programs supplied are not, as Gary states, for those with or without the pointer environment already Sinclair QL
Concorde In the December 93 issue of IQLR (vol. 3 issue 4) Bill Cable describes a group of programs for building a word index of a text file using the facilities of Archive.

Cueshell Cueshell bills itself as the “Desktop Program’. I have found it a very useful complement to QPAC2. As I’m still finding new ways to do things with QPAC2 it is a bit difficult to compare Cueshell directly to QPAC2. There are certain tasks I find easier to do from within Cueshell while other things are Sinclair QL
Editor SE (Part 4) This section of the tutorial will be devoted to setting up ALTKEY (Hotkeys) commands within The EDITOR.

Minerva Bug? On occasion, I attempt to translate a program, written as “spaghetti code” in one of the several primitive Basics, into SuperBasic. Where the author has left little or no room between lines, it becomes necessary to renumber the program in order to get some working room. In the course of one such attempt, I encountered Sinclair QL

Quill - Deskjet 500 This is a follow up on printing with the DESKJET 500 printer from the last issue of IQLR. This time we are dealing with printing of QUILL (QLWP) documents. This is accomplished by using INSTALL _BAS to create a PRINTER dat file for the DESKJET 500 printer. All of the features of this printer will Sinclair QL
Routine Auto-Locator Have you ever, in the course of developing a moderately complex SuperBasic program, found yourself scrolling madly up and down through multitudinous lines in search of the routine that currently needed modification ? I have, and it can be annoying, to say the least. Sinclair QL, Type-in program
Talking to the World In addition to logging into specialized bulletin boards such as QBOX USA to talk with other QL users (see the last issue of IQLR), you have the opportunity to access an even bigger part of the ‘information superhighway’ that has been much talked about.
