| A Review of Banter, the Banner Maker | Recently I discovered a small gem of a program that I had overlooked. This is strange as I often pride myself upon being very up to date on programs for the QL. Ah! It just goes to show that ego can often get ahead of ones true knowledge! | Sinclair QL |
| Adding Two More Drives | Add two more drives to a Larken system. | Timex/Sinclair 2068 |
| Cable Column | Bycol - a program for displaying and printing databases by columns. | Sinclair QL, Type-in program |
| July 1995 Editorial | Here we are again and it is once more time to….ASK ALL OF YOU TO RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTIONS (all except for one new subscriber, an Italian Dr.). Other than that one person, everyone is now due to renew their subscriptions. | Sinclair QL |
| More on problems with integers. | In regards the the programming puzzle put forth by Basil (no last name) in the last issue of UPDATE, I decided to take on the problem and see what I could make of it. For reference here is the short program he had: The problem he was getting was skips in the value of Panel. | Sinclair QL, Timex/Sinclair 2068 |
| QLuMSi 4.80 | QLuMSi/QL.using.**M**’cr~S~ft.interface (yes, it’s pronounced “clumsy”) is a front-end program, an MS-DOS simulation, and a learning tool. QLuMSi is a TURBO-compiled program that can be EXEC(_W)’d on any QL which has TK2_EXTensions. For individuals who move between QDOS and DOS, QLuMSi allows for a smoother transition when invoking command line input — QLuMSi will convert the delimiter for you. | Sinclair QL |
| Report on Oak Ridge QL Show | I want to take the time to thank all of the many people who took time out of their schedules to come to the QL show (Bob Dyl thinks perhaps show is a misnomer and that it would more accurately be called a “get together”). | Sinclair QL |
| Timex Publication Index, part 4 | Sinclair ZX80, Timex/Sinclair 1000, Timex/Sinclair 2068 | |
| Z88 External Battery Box | Ever since I got my Z88, I’ve always been worried about running low on batteries. 20 hours on one set of batteries is nice, but good batteries are not cheap. Almost immediately I picked up an AC adapter for the Z88. This allowed me to work without the worry about going through batteries. | Cambridge Z88 |
| Z88BAS.TXT | Here is a list of Z88 BBC BASIC Commands Statements and functions, I’ve commented on some to help clarify. Abbreviations are listed in brackets, they can be typed in as such to save memory. | Cambridge Z88 |
