| DEV Device and DEV_USE | Many QL users now have access to level 2 directories on their systems, either through hard disks or through using HD or ED disks.

| GT Prolog - QL | Attempting to write a review of GT-Prolog (GTP) has proved to be rather more difficult than anticipated. There is, first of all, the necessity for familiarization with a new language. This, of course, was to be expected.

| Miracle in Newport II | The show was held on the 14th of May 1994 at the Howard Johnson Motor Lodge in Middletown, Rhode Island, USA. Despite the number of supplier cancellations in the two weeks prior to the show, attendance, while lower than expected, wasn’t bad at all.

| QL Public Domain Software | One thing lacking in IQLR at the moment is news about QL PD Software especially what is offered on the Communications Super Highway. As I have access to both Fidonet and Internet I thought that some examples would be in order. | Sinclair QL |
| QPAC2 (My) Boot | There has been a lot said and written about QPAC 2. The designer of this program (Mr. Tony Tebby) made it flexible and adaptable to most all situations. In so doing, many have trouble getting started using this program. It is not one of those pieces of software that we buy, put it in the | Sinclair QL, Type-in program |
