SMSQ/E for ATARI ST, STE, TT

SMSQ/E can turn any ATARI 68000 based computer (except for the Falcon030 and the ST BOOK) into a computer on which you can run most of your QL programs. On top of all the features which SMSQ/E offers on all systems, it supports a lot of the inbuilt and additional ATARI hardware:

• ACSI & SCSI harddisk support
• SyQuest removeable drive support
• Read and write TOS harddisk partitions
• PAR parallel port device
• up to 4 SER serial ports (TT) supported
• many accelerator cards supported (HyperCache, HyperCache 030, PAK etc.)
• FAST RAM support (TT)
• MIDInet and MIDI device driver

SMSQ/E emulates the display in the monochrome 640x400, because this is the only resolution which is greater or equal to the QL's 512x256. You can use the full resolution, even from BASIC. If you require higher resolutions or even higher compatibility, you can use extra hardware which will generate the original QL display organisation in hardware:

• Original QL-Emulator for the ATARI: only for ST and Mega ST, requires the ZX8301 display chip of the QL. Emulates 512x256 in 4 colours and 256x256 in 8 colours.
• Extended QL-Emulator: only for ST and Mega ST. Does not require the ZX8301 and gives 512x256 in 4 colours and 768x280 pixels in 4 colours. Can still be connected to original QL monitors.
• QVME: plugs into the VME bus of the Mega STE and TT. Fully programmable 4 colour modes from 512x256 up to 1280x900 in multiples of 8 pixels. Horizontal and vertical frequencies are programmable too!
