| Flash! |
Some of you have heard about the QL World article on the QL in North America. This article was nice and painted a very good picture of the scene here. One little throw-away in the article has created what may be the biggest event in QL-dom in the nineties: that the QL rights to North |

There are nine programs on this disk, which is a result of the efforts of the Scottish QL User Group. JI will deal with them in the order they appear on the disk. I hope my remarks will assist others to operate those programs. At least you will have a basis for your own operations; |
