• The WROCC Vol 39 Issue 1 Out Now

    From WROCC@21:1/5 to All on Wed Apr 14 22:40:39 2021
    The April 2021 issue of 'The WROCC' -- the newsletter of the Wakefield RISC
    OS Computer Club -- is on its way out to members across the UK and beyond
    this week.

    Our 39th Volume starts with the April 2021 issue, where we look forward to
    the Wakefield Acorn & RISC OS Computer Show taking place later in the month.
    We revisit our previous review of MPData+ with a look at the changes in
    version 2, and investigate what is required to create a good application
    icon for RISC OS. There's a report on our March meeting, which saw Phil Pemberton talking about the work of the Acorn Preservation Team and Andy
    Marks from RISCOSbits showing some of his new products. One of our members considers the rise of modern technology, and we take a brief look at Chris Hall's disc cataloguing application, Cat.

    See https://www.wrocc.org.uk/newsletter for more details of recent issues,
    and to download samples of older issues.

    Able to trace its roots directly back to the first Wakefield Club newsletter
    in April 1983, these days 'The WROCC' is produced in an A5 booklet layout
    and copies are delivered free to WROCC members in PDF format. Membership of
    the Club costs 15ukp per year with a reduced rate of 7.50ukp for the first year... and despite our name, there are no geographical restrictions.


    The Wakefield Back Catalogue Issue 10
    -------------------------------------

    Relaunched following the completion of Volume 37 of 'The WROCC' in April
    2020, the tenth edition of The Wakefield Back Catalogue contains PDF copies
    of the Club's monthly newsletters going from 'The WROCC' and 'Awake' right
    back to the very first "hints & tips" sheet handed out at the April 1983 meeting.

    Originally intended for release at the 2020 Wakefield Show, the new
    compilation contains around 408 issues and is available as a download in
    these more 'virtual' times. It costs 7.50ukp for non-members, whilst members can buy it for the discounted price of 5.00ukp. See https://www.wrocc.org.uk/newsletter for more details.
