The Sinclair QL Forum

While looking through my old disks I found a copy of "FUDGE 2" v2.5 by Simon N Goodwin, Speedscreen User-defined graphics editor, allows you to edit or create new fonts.
I can't seem to see it in the reference section, only a Speedscreen demo.

Has Speedscreen been made public domain or is it still in copyright?

I have this from Simon (who isn't on the forum) :

" I do not recognise the screen grab and would never have called it FUDGE in any case. Strange that my copyright is on this apparently patched version.

A source-code version of QLUDGE is part of Turbo Toolkit unless I’ve misremembered. That is all FOSS.

Speedscreen is not freeware and won’t be while I still have manuals to sell. There is an extended version of the ROM included with my permission with licenced updates of QLAY/QL2K. Also the demo is freely available and gives full speed but only on aligned CSIZE 1,0 text."

Interesting, so likely something altered by CST and called "FUDGE" for the Thor, as it came on the official supplied disks.
