Snapshot — salvataggio schermo QL

Floppy IMG derived from archived files. Mount as FLP1 and boot using Minerva 1.98a1 ROM, 2048 KiB emulator RAM and Toolkit II 2.32. Saved a test screen containing WORKING QL and a red square. Read the 32768-byte file and reconstructed a 512×256 mode-4 image, identical byte for byte to the final video RAM. BASIC variant 2097 is not counted separately. Basic functional check in sQLux, not full validation or a physical-hardware test. Audio untested. ROMs are not included.
