Secure connections temporarily disrupted

Posted by Andrew Hodgkinson Wed, 03 Dec 2008 14:40:00 GMT

Due to an error in the issuing of our site’s SSL certificate, which was meant to expire in a couple of weeks but instead seems to have expired within the last day, you may be warned by your browser that secure (HTTPS) connections to the ROOL site are no longer trusted.

Latest source code updates

Posted by Steve Revill Tue, 16 Sep 2008 18:40:00 GMT

The published RISC OS source code has been updated with the following changes:

• The Wimp has had some bug fixes and has new enhancements which will allow better themes for the desktop (Fred Graute)

• A new version of Alarm has a number of improvements to its windows which make it easier to use (James Lampard)

• The DebugLib library now has new facilities for directing your debug output to SysLog or to Reporter.

• The official Acorn Clipboard module has been finished! This fully implements the Clipboard protocol and includes some new test programs, notably PutClip and GetClip (Fred Graute).

Some interesting background information about the clipboard module (from Fred himself) will be published on our wiki.
