Hello IstvanV,
I've just tried your last good realease.
I noticed that by setting double speed as I use (200%), sometimes the keyboard "losses" some key hits. I mean that when speeded the emulator should receive more key hits when you press a key, on the contrary I experience it losses (hope you understand "my" English

SVS: it is possible that the emulator cannot keep up with the increased speed on your machine, although using 200% seems to work OK for me (or maybe I just cannot type that fast ). The 200% and 400% modes are not as efficient as "no limit" because the video frame rate is not limited, so the emulator tries to render 100 or 200 frames per second, respectively; I may change this in the next release, though. By the way, is it possible that you are using double buffered video mode, or "resample to monitor refresh rate" ? Those may make the keyboard input less responsive with higher than normal speed.

IstvanV, you are too fast with new releases. I didn't have the time to try out plus4emu since version 1.2.0.

I also couldn't be in time to test 1.2.4. ;-( Your emulator is so good and so unexpected... I can only write that I found the united address space in the debugger a bit ambiguous. IMHO mnemonics will be a bit better, e.g. c1551:100 or cart1:c007...

I can change the address parsing in future versions (I assume the 'c1551' would refer to the 1551 ROM, which is mapped to $080000-$083FFF, and the actual IEC devices would be like U8 etc. or similar, as there can be more than one drive of the same type) to have mnemonics for specific areas. However, as a simple rule, an address like $1nxxxx refers to the address space of device 'n', and the main CPU is assumed to be device 0 (so $18xxxx is floppy drive U8, $14xxxx is the printer / U4, etc.). The Plus/4 RAM is at $3Fxxxx if the size is 64K, and the basic and kernal ROMs can always be seen at $000000-$007FFF.

Hello IstvanV!
I'm curious to know what is the colored pixel inside the drive green led. I mean I see appear this light point (black or yellow) during disk operations, and in different positions
2) Please make next release able to return to previous set emulation speed, after the end of fullspeed time (ALT-W), because now when one returns to normal mode with a second ALT-W, program goes always to 100%.
TNX!

The colored dot on the LED display shows the track number changing. It moves from left to right with increasing track number. The color is black or white depending on whether the track number is even or odd. When the head is not moving, it disappears after a short while. I think you requested a similar feature earlier, but maybe it is not exactly what you have thought of.
Do you mean being able to return to e.g. 200% if that was selected before the Alt+W, or that there is a problem/bug when returning to normal 100% speed ? In the first case, it can be easily fixed in the next version by changing the GUI code to remember the original speed when switching to full speed mode.

Nice!

Yes indeed.

OK, it is now changed in the SVN. The speed setting is also saved in the quick configuration files.
