  • The WROCC Vol 41 Issue 7 Out Now

    From WROCC@21:1/5 to All on Thu Oct 19 20:30:03 2023
    The October 2023 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.

    In this issue, we take a look at using the PlingStore to distribute
    software, a Club member tells of his return to BASIC programming, and
    there's an investigation into a strange bug involving command line aliases.
    We also look at a number of software titles, including the recent port of
    the Porklike game to the platform, using ConvImgs to make JPEGs which
    display correctly on RISC OS| 4.02, and some hints and tips for using
    NetFetch efficiently.

    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 7.50ukp per year... and despite our name, there are no geographical restrictions.


    The Wakefield Back Catalogue Issue 13
    -------------------------------------

    Relaunched following the completion of Volume 40 of 'The WROCC' in April
    2023, the thirteenth 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.

    The new compilation contains around 440 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.
