Have been recently rolling my own custom distribution for RO5 on the Rpi4 (or more accurately a compilation as it is all the work of others apart from testing) and have noticed that a lot of the programs, apps and documentation I have been compiling have all been updated in the last few years ! I have dumped a quick list below of the programs, manuals, etc I have on this disk image that have been updated or created since the year 2020.There are 82 items in my list! (some of these are part of the HardDisc image from ROOL). And the good news is there are heaps more programs which are either commercial, not my particular preference or just unknown to me that are not on this list. That’s not bad for a hobby retro platform with very few developers and a corresponding small user base ! anyway here is my list, might be something in there that catches your attention RISC OS 5.31H,,2024 -, |

Nice to see a couple of mine on your list. I take it from your user name that you are in Austrlia if so my StreetFix app may be of inerest as that has had Australia included in a recent update. |

Hi Kevin, Yes live in country South Australia. We have the odd hole in the road that’s for sure. Had a quick look at the general FixMyStreet website here and it didn’t seem very active – there are other reporting sites etc here that get used a bit more, but will look into it again. Have also got your Currency and KWeather apps running on the RPi4 under RO5.31 too. Not sure when Currency 2.04 was issued but KWeather 1.01 just misses the list being from Apr 2019. I do like seeing what you come up with or update next. The PDF utilities are pretty impressive! Thanks. |

Chris Johns update of Python is is worth a mention in this context. RISC OS Python is not just an application but a gateway to a whole world of programs written on other platforms. |
