Thanks to Robert for supplying a zip file of Microbee games and other programs that can be loaded quickly into a ROM based Microbee using ubee512 emulator. There are 111 files in total. I thought they were in the Repository but looks like somehow I had missed them. They are there now.
Quickload allows a program (or data)
to be loaded into memory from a file located on the host system. This is
useful for loading programs on ROM based models where the only other method
would require the use of the emulated tape input which is slow and requires
large wave files.
Quickload files requires that the correct version of Microworld Basic is in
memory. Only ROM 5.xx versions that use the same scratch pad and vector
address values between versions are allowed. Disk models may also be used
if a 5.xx version tape Basic is in use.
They are all in the one zip file of easy downloading and also get the quickload_files.txt file that lists the files and also with a short description of the program. See the DOC file that come with ubee512 for the operation and use of these files. Basically the commands needed are -
--qla-arc=quickload_files.zip ---> Specify the ZIP archive to be used.
--qla-load=filename,x ---> Load a quickload file, the optional 'x' will cause the code to be executed once loaded.
So today in the MbeeTech Repository in the Microbee/Software/Quickload folder we placed
quickload_files.zip ---> Contains the 111 files
quickload_files.txt ---> A list of the 111 files by name.
