Hi,

I'm having some problems compiling a program with QLiberator that uses the PHGTK graphics extensions.
...
It all works fine in SuperBASIC, but when compiled with QLiberator, it stops with:

Q_LIB error 19 Indices wrong
The line giving the problem is:
3245 e%=FPNG(x$,"ram1_test_pic",scrMode ...

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried your code Dilwyn, and it worked as expected.

After some head scratching, I wondered whether the fact I had written and compiled the code in Q-emulator with JS ROM would mean it wouldn't run properly under SMSQ/E. So I recompiled the same code while in SMSQ/E and ...

I've used PHGTK a lot since it was released, and not noticed this issue with compiling programs using it.

(For anyone who doesn't know of PHGTK, it's the Photon General Toolkit, a set of graphics extensions for converting GIF, PNG and JPG files)

So I've just made a little test program which I ...

Hi,

I'm having some problems compiling a program with QLiberator that uses the PHGTK graphics extensions.

The idea is to convert .png images as required, saving temporarily as "pic" format to ram1_, then loading back in. I know I could pre-convert them, but I would need to do it for Modes 16, 32 ...

Having played around with Quill a bit recently, I thought it would be fun to try to add some "enhancements" made possible by using the Quill to BASIC utility.

I've got to agree, it's an amazing achievement! As long as you have a win file, you can get your QL fix on any computer that has a web browser. Fantastic!

I do have one problem with it, and maybe someone can enlighten me, I can't get the SAVE function to work. Any changes that I make within the win ...

Derek,

I really like the form factor of the Next, which is the big draw for me, although dedicated function keys would have been nice. The Next "family" can potentially introduce a lot of people to the QL, which is a plus for everyone.

The Q68 sounds great, and I would love to own one. But ...

Hi,

I have the XberryPi, Spectrum Next KS2, they are sitting unused, nainly, due to lack of documentation of the QL Core. I have pledged for the KS3 update board.

The Next QL ran all my existing QL software, except the high colour software.

I do not like pressing the NEXT NMI button and number ...

Has anyone managed to get any 8-bit colour modes working with the Next QL core yet?

I'm a bit late to the party. I backed the KS3 recently though, and bought an Xberry pi (KS1 clone) recently to join the club. I've been playing with the QL core on that, but as far as I understand it, some of the ...
