QIMSI Gold - Spanish K/B driver beta, release

[dilwyn]

If In write a new Language module, how do I load the module into SMSQ/E.

Sorry if this is off topic.

I'm not sure if this article by Tony Tebby is still relevant to current versions of SMSQ/E, it goes back to the early days, IIRC it was an article in one of the magazines at the time, maybe IQLR. It might be out of date nowadays - if someone tries it, and finds it is, please let me know so I can flag it on my website.

At the time, I did make Welsh language modules for SMSQ/E, but long since lost.

Off-topic aside: when I visited Caernarfon airport's aviation museum a couple of years ago, the man who ran the place built Daleks as a hobby. The one in reception had a sensor to detect people walking past and respond with "exterminate exterminate" in whatever language it detected as you walked past. Some experience walking past a Dalek in reception saying it was going to kill you in Welsh! Although the kids loved it. Must have "language modules" of its own.

Just for the sake of totally unneeded knowledge, Dilwyn: What's "exterminate" in Welsh?

Difodi (deevodee would be the English phonetic equivalent - Welsh f is pronounced like English v)

Just that "Difodi, difodi!" doesn't have quite the catchiness of "exterminate, exterminate!" I suppose.

You will be tested on this next time I speak to you, tofro

And if he fails you'll duff him up in some random slate quarry like 90% of the classic eps?

HI Dilwyn,

Thank you for reminding me of Tony Tebby's SMS Module notes, there was also an article in QL Today, I will have a search and I am sure someone else did something for adding modules to SMSQ/E.

Hi all,

I just replaced the file in the first post of this thread by a bugfixed version.
Current version is 1.03

No changes in UK and GER versions.

Hi again Stephan.

I've tested the new version of your Spanish driver and everything is fine. The keys in the layout, the behavior of accented vowels and special key combinations is correct. Everything is in place, great!!

Here are some tests:

Thanks once again for the support from QimsiGold.

Best regards.
