In article <na.2f11c750bd.a806e0tenn...@o rpheusmail.co.uk>, ...Load into PDFView and save as text. The text file is then readable. If you want it better formatted, save as Drawfile. Hope this helps, John Resent as cross-posting seemed to prevent first attempt.

Removing RISC OS formatting data from USB stick
|
| |
I have a USB stick which I formatted using !SCSIForm on an Iyonix. I need a way to remove the formatting data. If I partition to FAT32 (using gparted under Ubuntu) the disc still contains the RISC OS information. When plugged into the Iyonix it will show as FAT32 when using Fat32FS and RISC OS when using SCSIFS. I'd like just the FAT32 to be used. Any ideas?... more »

|
| |
Following a recent query as to whether there is still any decent educational software for primary school children available for Acorn, I can confirm that Sherston still have about a dozen triple Mac/PC/ Acorn format titles that they are selling to home users, at reduced prices, through their shop on Ebay.... more »

Blank emails
|
| |
I've recently been getting a few blank emails with a 'blank' HTML attachment, when opening it with Oregano 1, named HTML. Usually confirmation of an online order. From more than one firm.

Can a Router "run slow"?
|
| |
Hi all My internet connection has over recent weeks seemed increasingly slow. Insofar as I thought about this I supposed it was because I was using old Risc OS kit and comparing with PC stuff used on another (wireless) network. However I had to connect my pc laptop to the network this evening and... more »

Chrome OS; any implications for RISC OS users?
|
| |
The Register reports that Chrome OS may be available soon. [link] It supposedly supports the ARM platform as well as x86. Would this have any implications for RISC OS? (Apart from the obvious attack on Microsoft's dominance.) Would there be the possibility of more Arm hardware that could be used... more »

Paper Jam - HP Color laserjet 2550L
|
| |
Hello All, After many, many years of no trouble, I have a paper jam and can't clear it. Stupidly, I have mislaid the manual !! :-( Of course, if I cannot get guidance from any of you, I'll go to HP and then a local computer shop. Basically, a second sheet of paper began feeding in, before the first had... more »

RONWUG's recommended RISC OS web sites
|
| |
...Hm, slightly odd selection. I guess that riscos.info, drobe and TIB are are not listed because "everyone knows about them", but they are still odd omissions. Also: [link] Instead of linking to the ROL documentation, this is a better link which tries to consolidate all RISC OS documentation:... more »
