I’ve discovered that the forum runs Textile output through a whitelist processor. This is redundant as Textile output is ‘safe enough’ to be used “raw” everywhere else on the site. Because the forum caches the HTML-ified contents of posts in the database, any existing posts that fell foul of the whitelist would need to be edited and re-saved to show a change; accordingly, I tested both of the above examples on the development site and they both rendered as tables rather than a plain text dump of the equivalent HTML.

Above is marked up as:

table(bordered).

Looks like I need to do a bit of CSS tweaking to improve the aesthetics though.

Testing a specific link. An old file of toolsprites I made back in 1995! If it works and you like it, feel free to use it.

Hi, I am involved in a couple of charity public firework displays.
For the past few years we have built a “Goodnight” sign with lances for the end of the display.
This year I have built an 8ft display made from 64 wide by 8 high LEDs.

Goodnight

To control it I am using a RaspberryPi running RISC OS.
I would like to acknowledge and promote this during the display.
RISC OS 5
And I have an emulation version to test ideas on my laptop.

Is this OK to do and are you happy with the graphics. 8 pixels high is quite restricting!

I am also looking for ideas for other animations etc. If this works, here is my emulation program that was working under RPCEmu.

Hi, this is a section of code I’ve been working on and certain bit has me stumped!

Following dropping a file in a window, I get a usermessage received in workspace%
The line at 559 is very intermittent when it chooses to work or give an empty string and yet reading the same block a byte at a time works.
The last two lines just update text on a debug window I’ve tried this on RO4.02 with RPCEmu and with RO5.21(15Jan14) and get the same problem.
I have had several copies of the same program running at the same and one might work when the other four don’t.
Am I doing anything wrong?

     559 :   filepath2$=$(workspace%+44)
     560 :   REM byte bang as above doesn't work every time!
     561 :   filepath$=""
     562 :   temp1%=0
     563 :   temp2%=workspace%?44
     564 :   WHILE temp2%<>0 AND temp2%<>13
     565 :     filepath$+=CHR$temp2%
     566 :     temp1%+=1:temp2%=workspace%?(44+temp1%)
     567 :   ENDWHILE
     568 : 
     569 :   PROCseticontext (debug%,11,filepath$)
     570 :   PROCseticontext (debug%,12,filepath2$)
