Re: Mechanical keyboard recommendations

IIRC USB to PS/2 converters won't work, so you're stuck with just PS/2. And you can get decent older ones on eBay or Goodwill. If you really want to spend money I can't help. Are you wanting to keep it X16 branded?

Re: Using the -PRG Switch in the X16 Emulator

Idk if it matters on Windows, but the switches are lower case.

Re: Tiny Pascal Compiler - V1 NOW AVAILABLE!

Sounds great. I am super excited to see what you come up with, no pressure. It's a great companion suite along with XVI and I might finally have proper motivation to learn Pascal - at least a tiny version of it :D. I have list of things to do this weekend with XVI, that's really a shifting set prior...
