Who??????????????

Gah! My distypia strikes again! Sorry Dilwyn. I'm constantly transposing character in my postings and having to go back time and again to fix, even after re-reading.

(Original post fixed.)

For those who like to have a housing for the Qimsi, i post the .STl files here for free use.
This version has a dust protection collar. This housing doesn't include the HDMI and audio version

The .Stl file is in the appendix.
Best result is in PLA or ABS print, not in Resin print. Resin give a better optic, but less mechanic stability.

I’ve just received an email about QIMSI purchase but I don’t know how to make the type of payment requested so will have to sit out this round

Hopefully I’ll get another chance in the future

Many thanks

Maybe answer that email and ask about alternative payment options?

Or just ask his bank customer service considering it’s an easy and standard method even in post brexit U.K. the banks aren’t as stupid as our voters

Have sussed out how to do it, will try shortly

Hello


I’m learning how to use the QIMSI and I have a situation that I can’t solve. On a SD card I have three WIN container files named QLWA, QLWA2 and QLWA3. How can I convince the QL to use QLWA3 as mdv1_ drive?

If I type dir win3_ I get the content of QLWA3 container file. I want to access the files in QLWA3 container as they are on mdv1_. Is that possible?


Kind greetings from Maribor

Dev_USE mdv
Dev_use 1, win3_
Dir mdv1_ - and now you will get the list of files and directories of Win3_

You can also map a directory
Dev_use 2, win3_xxx_
Dir mdv2_ - and now you will get the list of files and directories from Win3_xxx_

Hello.

Thank you, Andrew. I’ll try it this evening. But is this command available with QIMSI alone? I’m running it on unexpanded, non-upgraded QL (JM version of ROM, 128KB of RAM, Issue 6 hardware).

Kind greetings.
