The command A_SPEED and SLUG allow you to slow down the operation of the QL.

For A_SPEED, value must be in the range 0..7.

0 allows the Emulator to run at full speed, whereas 7 makes it run very slowly.

The parameter for SLUG specifies the delay in milliseconds.

Programs which do not spend a lot of time waiting for keyboard input such as interactive games will not slow down so much. Only keyboard access is slowed down.

CROSS-REFERENCE:
SCR2DIS and CACHE_ON can be used to speed up the computer's speed.
