  • The QuillHi, Is it possible to write new adventure with The Quill using the Spectaculator emulator? I bought The Quill when it first came out all those years…

    You just have to learn how to use the virtual tape deck in Spectaculator. You can read the program help for that, it's pretty easy and straightforward. That and ZX Block Editor to clear/tidy your tapes, and you're done.

    Happy coding!
