Precompiled GPL SharedCLibrary?

Hi, I'm messing about with getting RO applications to run on ROLF, again. I don't want to have anything to do with RISC OS source code, but all the modules provided on the ROOL website are squeezed using a propriatory algorithm. There is, however, a application called SqzUnSqz that is freely available and contains the program unmodsqz that I could use to unsqueeze... more »

That peskey 256 byte limit
|
| |
Hello all and a Happy New Year I am in the process on converting a Free Basic programme to BBC Basic. Unfortunately I have run into BBC Basic's 256 character string limit which Free Basic doesn't have. Does anyone have any clever tips or useful tools to ease my frustration. Unfortunately the variable causing the problem is... more »

DDT and DeskDebug
|
| |
In my opinion many of the correspondants on this topic are doing RISCOS a grave disservice by asking for the moon. If any new programs are to emerge new talent us needed which in turn will need a straightforward development environment which works over the range of new RISC OS hardware. What is not needed is a stalling of any updating of... more »

GCC library generation
|
| |
I haven't started with it yet, but the new release is at the least encouraging for a 'would be' like myself. It sounds like I will be able to make an independant binary for RISC OS, but where there is a normally dependant library installed (linux), where does it leave me if the library isn't included in RISC OS !GCC.... more »

Spindly text
|
| |
I'm redrawing a window with spindly text. I swear that this same code worked earlier today... Partial screen shot is at [link] (roughly 320 KB, containing a ~2 MB sprite) which shows one window where the text is fine and one where it's not. The window in question is not auto-redraw. Its work background colour... more »

New year, new language - Tcl/Tk
|
| |
Ok, so Tcl/Tk hasn't been the height of fashion in programming for about 15 years, but it's something I've wanted a port of for a long time for no particular reason. Due to other work, it now seems to mostly work (still a bit rough), although it has no RISC OS customization whatsoever, and the port itself has fixed a few things which might help... more »

My PDF PRM's are missing the chapter "Interrupts and how to handle them" page 1 - 119. Is there anywhere I can download or get the omission from? I could really do with them. Thanking you in advance, Matt
