Ah understood Mike.
I'm using win 7 and 10 just for reference.
Can someone confirm something for me?

However, I had to do a fair amount of fiddling to get the development environment running on am M1 Mac with parallels desktop. To make sure nothing untoward is happening I've put together a little Windows 7 machine to compile on.
Re: Can someone confirm something for me?
lol, Don't think that'll ever happen. Before I said the dev environment was running in parallels, but I spoke incorrectly - I've actually got it running in crossover. So yes, it does (kind of) run on my mac but C++Builder is only ever going to create x86/Windows code. Still, according to the Crossover website C++Builder won't even run on it.

Re: Can someone confirm something for me?
I'm afraid I can't agree here. The actual versions of Delphi and c++builder do create code for Linux, macos, iOS and Android as well.
They are available in a free version c++builder community edition.
The port of the GUI to firemonkey is the hard part. But it's not impossible.
I use the actual Delphi version at work and would be willing to help porting to the actual c++ builder. If there would be a limitation in the free version I could compile the releases on my company versions. It's just too big for a single person. Would you be willing to take up the task together with me?
Kind regards Paul
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.
Re: Can someone confirm something for me?
OK, wow, that's news to me.
Guess that's what comes from being out of the loop for so long. I thought builder/Delphi was long dead and buried. Something else for me to look into.
Today I was having a little fun... took the picture below and though to myself I never thought an emulator could look so authentic... of course the 15k CRT really helps with looking bad.

Hi Mike
Obviously if you are on a bug hunting mission, the ZX80/ZX81 bugs should be the first to be squashed .
Over on the Spectrum Computing forums, some members there talk about some possible bugs with the ZX Spectrum Interface 1 and Microdrive emulation. See this topic.

There are four lights!
Step up to red alert. Sir, are you absolutely sure? It does mean changing the bulb
Looking forward to summer being good this year.

Printning works for regular ROM calls, but some of the software with custom print routines doesn’t work.
WordSinc II.3

This is a word processor with lowercase letters and more than 32 chars per line.
Printing on a regular Alphacom32 works fine, but printing in EightyOne prints garbage.
Re: Can someone confirm something for me?
Well I've spent the day rewriting the sound code.
Got rid of the old multimedia timer and now everything is synchronised to the audio output. `it should make a big difference to the sound outout (he says, now expecting the fall). All I have to do now is plug the actual emolation core sound data into the new DSound code...
I wrote the original sound code as a placeholder, just to produce some noise until I could get round to writing the proper code. I guess 18 years is long enough to wait.
