Tony Tebby is a computer programmer who designed Qdos, the operating system of the Sinclair QL personal computer, while working as an engineer at Sinclair Research in the early 1980s. He had earlier worked on real-time image processing at the Philips Research Laboratories in Redhill. He left Sinclair in 1984 in protest at the premature launch of the QL and founded QJUMP Ltd, a software house that produced system software for the machine, including SuperToolkit II, a widely used floppy disk driver and the Pointer Environment, which gave Qdos a near graphical interface. In the early 1990s he wrote SMSQ, a Qdos-compatible system later extended as SMSQ/E, and he has also worked on the embedded operating system Stella.
