Hi,

QPC2 with Horizon emu on my ANDROID 15

Some success I have QPCII 5.02 up and running. Can activate screen Keyboard and type dir which gives QPCD QDOS Progs

I try DIR dos1 and I hit a problem the (_) underscore prints the same and a dash or minus. I’ve tried several different keyboard arrangements prog won’t work with SMSQ/E only Windows. The Android keyboard (_) works OK with the browser and other Apps. Is this possibly a problem with QPC2!

There is a feature in QPC2 series 5 which allows for "automatic" conversion of '.' and '_'
In the drives configuration menu on QPC2 startup there is a tick box to disable it, but I don't know if this would work in the Android emulation of course.
