Spectrum Computing

Need to get around to giving this one a go. I've got as far as downloading it!

Very nifty.

I don't suppose there's a way of supporting other text editors, like Geany?

Are there any other text editors (preferably open source/free ones) that support BASIC syntax highlighting?

Ah, this is the thread for me. I've been playing Dictator, The Biz and FM and I'm looking for more games like them.

I tried Britain Ltd., but I don't really know what I'm doing. I'll look at some of the others suggested here.

Very cool looking project. I guess the easiest way to hook up any Spectrum type keyboard would be through the GPIO?

Only played it for a little while (and died a bit!), but so far I'm really enjoying it. Reminds me a bit of Duke 2, lots of running around hitting switches and opening doors.

Does anyone know what power supplies I can use with the Omni? Could I just use any old ZX PSU?

Couldn't find the edit, but I worked out I was just being impatient with the save state. As for pokes, it looks like NMI navigator has some support for them. but I'm struggling to actually get the pokes working. The workaround is to snapshot it in an emulator and save that state and load it in the o...

Hi, I finally got my omni the other day and have been playing around with it, so far so good! Some really good information here on what can and can't be done.
