Well, then that's pretty much it about the 200E.

Is there anything else you'd like to test? Tomorrow the owner will be coming for it...

I can't think of anything... Do you think we've got a handle on all the differences?

Now where can I get hold of one?

Anyway, I've pushed up a snapshot here: http://www.6809.org.uk/tmp/xroar/ which will load d200e_1.rom, d200e_2.rom and d200e_26.rom (the font) if you run with "-machine dragon200e". If you actually have a Spanish keyboard, run with "-keymap es" or "-keymap es_apple"¡

This should make exploring the machine a little easier for those of us that don't have one (everyone but your friend?)!

The cursor keys are not working in translation mode.

Yeah I think I might have just fixed that. As an abstraction layer, SDL really doesn't make keyboard handling very consistent across platforms...

The cursor keys seem to be working correctly now.

The clear key is not working in translation mode.

Is this in the snapshots I uploaded yesterday? You're quick off the mark!

Odd though: the keys mapped to CLEAR should now be handled before any translation. Can you run with "-debug-ui 1" and paste in the press/release event debugging for when you press the appropriate keys?

Home (sym=278) and Grave (`, sym=96) should be the keys mapped to CLEAR in the default keymap, and in translation mode you should see that the debugging lines do not include a unicode field, where the keys with ASCII symbols that translate directly to a Dragon key will have this field.

This is useful feedback though, I still have no convenient Windows machines to test on so there may well be something I've missed - thanks!

(Though obviously part of me is grumbling, as I felt I finally had a system that would keep working )

No, it was the previous snapshot. Sorry, I didn't know there was a later snapshot. The clear key is working OK now.

Ah good, that's reassuring.

Shift+# (Shift+@ pause) is not working in translation mode.
