have you trird compiling it as a QDOS exrcutable with Qliberator?

I'm a newbie.
I tried to install Qliberator on QemuLator but I got this error...

Loading ENV_BIN ...
At line 360 not found

Any sugestions?

Hi,

There are some extensions called ENV_BIN that should be loaded, that allow environmental variables to be loaded.

This should of been included in the Qliberator distribution, but can be downloaded from the QL Home Page: Toolkit Section or this link:

You can simply REM out the line that tries to load ENV_bin from your BOOT - It's not essential to QLiberator's working.

I downloaded the zip and uncompressed it to a folder mdv1.

Now, how do I run it?

Just put env_bin to a place where QLiberator's line 360 that gives you the error can find it.
