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.
