RISC OS Open and CJE Micro's are delighted to announce that a free download
of the User Guide for the latest stable release of RISC OS 5 is now
available.
Font licensing previously restricted its distribution but after discussions
on the ROOL forum and at the Wakefield Virtual Show this year, CJE Micro's
have generously stepped forward and paid to change that for a more
permissive font licence.
What's inside?
==============
The book covers everything a user needs to know to make best use of the OS, from beginner's concepts such as navigating menus, setting up and
configuring, through to a detailed description of each of the supplied applications and utilities. It weighs in at 61 chapters spanning over 600 pages.
This edition covers the RISC OS 5.28 feature set and has:
* 61 chapters spanning over 600 pages
* Over 900 images or illustrations
* A comprehensive index to rapidly dip into the text

as well as numerous corrections, revised or improved drawings and screenshots.
