ZX-Modules is an enhancement of my old project ZX-Rainbow Second Edition. I intended to make ZX-Modules much easier to use and to build up standalone applications that can communicate with each other.
Greyed modules are in progress, but the coloured ones are just ready developed and you may read more about them and you can download them by clicking on the coloured icons above.
Here is a brief description of all mentioned modules:
| Module name: | Description: | ZX-Rainbow S.E. equivalent: | |
| ZX-Central | Controls all modules, as if they are working together | ZX-Rainbow main program | |
| ZX-Explorer | Opens or displays ZX-Spectrum emulator files on drives, also detects programs/games automatically. Can also be used as a thumbnail viewer. It manages also the display of compressed files. | FILES / KNOWLEDGE |
|
| ZX-Favourites | Stores most wanted programs with their game information in a database. Can import S.G.D. and other databases. | DATABASE window | |
| ZX-Preview | Shows screen$, basic listings, system variables, etc. of ZX-Spectrum emulator files. | PREVIEW window | |

Module connection:
Any module application is made so that it receives commands that may come from
other modules.
Any module saves its window state (maximized, normal) and window position into the Windows registry. So you may arrange the modules in the way you like. Later, ZX-Modules Central has the charge to arrange or to combine the windows of the separated modules. Also, the window layout wizard you know from ZX-Rainbow Second Edition will be back with ZX-Modules Central.
