Re: New release of EightyOne available

Ctrl+P does not work in spectrum mode so I have no way to type.
I'm a lefty when typing so I need to use said key combo. Using the right shift is awkward and slow

changing symbol shift in emulator

I'm not a southpaw person so it irks me that I have to cross hands whenever I'm typing on a speccy emulator. Is there a way to set Left Shift as symbol shift or at least ctrl?

It's awkward the other way around

Both FUSE and Eightyone have this issue for spectrum mode

Re: EIGHTYONE PROBLEM

Ctrl+P doesn't work in ZX Spectrum mode and there's no way to put the left shift as symbol, only the right.

Re: Eightyone and Joystick controls.

I noticed a weird thing. Eightyone has stopped registering Ctrl+P for print on my version. I am using 1.39 at the latest.

Re: up and away animation for zx81. How to improve?

I wanted a way for the animation to loop continuously without the need to run constantly.
I'm still working the kinks out

Re: JOY81 - Programmable Joystick Interface for ZX81

I don't have a physical zx81, Can you make a rom dump or image of the interface for emulation?
