It includes an overview of the Sinclair QL's second processor, the Intel 8049 chip which is used to handle peripheral devices, such as the keyboard and sound, and how to control it without using QDOS. A useful guide, it suffers now from assuming that the system variables would always be stored at $28000 and the screen at $20000 which was not the case in later QL operating systems. ---- Title: **The Sinclair QDOS Companion**\\ Author: [[qlwiki:Andrew Pennell]]\\ Publisher: Sunshine Books\\ Year of Publication: 1985\\ Commercial Status: Commercial\\ Price as at July 1985: £6.95\\ Reviews: QL User (July 1985)\\ ISBN: 0-94640-869-6 qlwiki/the_sinclair_qdos_companion.txt Last modified: 2023/08/25 12:21by 127.0.0.1
