Chris Johnson's Software for RISC OS

The software available for download on this site is archived using David Pilling's SparkFS, and may be extracted using SparkPlug, Spark, or SparkFS.

If you do not have any of these, then a self-extracting version of SparkPlug may be downloaded.

This software is ONLY of use to users of RISC OS based computers - it will not run on Windows or MacOS machines (unless you are running the VirtualAcorn RISC OS emulator).

To the best of my knowledge, all my own software is 26/32 bit compliant and will run under all variants of RISC OS 4, RISC OS 4.42 (A9Home), and RISC OS 5.17 (Iyonix). Where indicated, the software has also been tested on the BeagleBoard (OMAP3 ARMv7 processor).
