As I already have a number of RPCemu installs, up to and including Select
4.39 I thought I'd have a go at getting 6.20, my native RO Os running on
one of the 4.39 installs.
I already have an extracted RO 6.20 ROM from my real SARPC but I've hit a
snag in the next stage of the instructions.
1) With the Select RO 6 CD in the Win PC drive, how do I get RPCemu to
actually read the PC CD drive?
Thanks
Dave

To install Iconv, you just need to follow the simple installation
instructions given on http://www.netsurf-browser.org/projects/iconv/
There are just two steps. To quote from the web page:
Installation
------------
You must follow these two steps carefully or installation will fail:
1. Merge !System directory
Use the System merge utility provided by Configure to merge the
supplied !System directory with the one on your system.
2. Merge !Boot directory
Use the Boot merge facility in Configure to merge the supplied
!Boot directory with the one on your system.
If there is no Boot merge facility provided on your system,
simply drag the supplied !Boot directory over your existing boot
structure.
That is all. Do that, and Iconv is correctly installed.
Hope that helps.

I'm always happy to ignore stuff I don't understand but unhappy when a
problem arises after I threw it away because I didn't understand its
importance.
I'm about to assume that, in this case, 'ignore' means the same as
'delete'?

When I unzipped the archive I merged the boot and system. I also

The ReadMe says the following:
Note for developers:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The "stubs" directory contains source for a set of C stubs.
See the ReadMe file in that directory for further information.
Are you a developer? If not, then you can ignore the stubs directory.

Log-in problem
I log into my eBlah forum permanently using a cookie. Previously when
I visited the forum I would be logged in automatically, but for the
last couple of weeks or so I have had to log in every session. Not
even my username is remembered.
Could this have been caused by a change in NetSurf? The forum scripts
have not changed. The only other possibility is a security change by
the hosting company (eUKhost). Most of my hosting problems are caused
by changes to ModSecurity settings.

I can access my groups at www.groups.yahoo.com - the User name and
Password entry isn't a problem. This with #841, with Javascript
enabled or disabled. I can get into my groups, including the group for
my lathe, and see the description for your lathe group.

I didn't particularly want one either but I wanted access to a number of
mailing lists they carry, such as the 7x12 minilathe group, and it was the
only way.
The mailing lists just run, quite happily, and have done for a long time but
on this particular occasion I was wanting to access the "files" section of

Hi,
I notice the Stubs folder.
After Boot and System merging, can I remove the Stubs folder from my

I don't think the developers, who are doing an excellent job, would
for a moment say that the JavaScript support is in any way complete.
If you post a bug report about this, together with a logfile, I'm sure
that would help them to discover what the problem might be.

Iconv 0.12 released
Version 0.12 of the Iconv module is now available for download. This is
a recommended update for all users - new builds of NetSurf will require
it.
New in this version:
* Add proper transliteration behaviour when requested
using //TRANSLIT.
Fixed in this version:
* Correct handling of trailing valid shift sequences. Previously would
erroneously report EINVAL, instead of silently accepting them.
Changed in this version:
* Master alias mapping file now lives in ROOL repository.
About Iconv
===========
Iconv is a module providing character set conversion facilities for
third-party applications. It is currently used by a number of
applications, most notably NetSurf. UnixLib's iconv support also
requires this module.
Updating from earlier versions
==============================
If updating from earlier versions, please perform _both_ a !Boot and
!System merge with the contents of the Iconv distribution archive as
documented in the Installation section of the ReadMe file.
Where to get it
===============
Iconv may be downloaded from
http://www.netsurf-browser.org/projects/iconv/

A much better arrangement than the one which I suggested. I hadn't
realised that a junction point could be used within RPCEmu.

Re: [Rpcemu] RISC OS 6 install instructions - revised
Hullo folks,
Having just been through some clean installs of 6.20 under RPCEmu in the last week I've this morning hit a snag with the networking which I will investigate sometime over the weekend and document if it has implications for the updated installation instructions.Accessing files commonly between several RPCEmu installations is something I've been doing. I have a similar setup to share common data on my Windows 7/XP/Ubuntu tri-boot system.
My solution has been to clone the RPCEmu installations and rename them so I have:
* RPCEmu - 402
* RPCEmu - 439
* RPCEMu - 519
* RPCEmu - 402
* RPCEmu - 439
* RPCEMu - 519
* RPCEmu - 620
Within these I have replaced the contents of the hostfs directory with the version-appropriate !Boot and applications directories. This also preserves the individual emulator configurations and the CMOS RAM settings which is a necessity.
My Data and Installation directories are within a 5th directory called "RPCEmu - common". These then have NTFS "junctions" made from them to a point within the hostfs directory of each of the emulations.
This works perfectly and delivers high convenience with low cost (disc space is cheap - especially for RPCEmu itself). The only thing that junctions cannot do is to link across filing systems such as network drives (at least those that don't have a virtual drive letter) but in that situation I use !Omni or !LanMan98 which work very well indeed and store files with exactly the same naming syntax used by hostFS so you can drag 'n' drop them in a Windows/Ubuntu environment.
I use this utility:http://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/hardlinkshellext.html

I'd seen that page, but not paid much attention to it, in view of its
'deprecated' heading. However, as you say, it leads to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS_symbolic_link which contains the
information needed to set up symbolic links - completely new to me.
In case anyone is interested: I have folders RPCEmu_439, RPCEmu_519 and
RPCEmu_620 containing the program files. Each folder contains a copy of
the same hostfs folder, but the redundancy can be avoided as follows
hide the hostfs folders, by renaming them
create a new folder, say, rpcemu_hostfs in the Program Files folder
from the Command Prompt, as Administrator, issue the commands
mklink /d "c:\program files\rpcemu_439\hostfs" "c:\program files\rpcemu_hostfs"
mklink /d "c:\program files\rpcemu_519\hostfs" "c:\program files\rpcemu_hostfs"
mklink /d "c:\program files\rpcemu_620\hostfs" "c:\program files\rpcemu_hostfs"
Quotes are needed, because the paths contain spaces, and the paths may
need to be edited. The commands create symbolic links, named hostfs, in
the three RPCEmu folders, but each link points to the same rpcemu_hostfs
folder, so that the contents of the three renamed hostfs folders can now
be merged in the single rpcemu_hostfs folder.
For this to work, 4.39 and 6.20 must boot from ADFS, thus allowing 5.19
to boot from HostFS, as usual.
Problem solved.
Many thanks, Peter, for the suggestion.

I have disabled Netsurf from being Run at Boot time, then rebooted
VARPC. I then had to revert to version 2.09 of Fetch_NS to avoid
problems with the Download directory. Then I downloaded 833, extracted
and ran it but it still gave the same error about timing out after 3000
millisecs.

Tested with NetSurf Dev #833
VRPC OS4.39 on Windows 8 - Inet$Resolvers : 10.0.1.1
All OK.
VRPC OS4.39 on Mac 10.8.2 - Inet$Resolvers : 127.0.0.1
NetSurf 2.9 resolves perfectly but NetSurf 3.0 times out.
(I tried manually setting Inet$Resolvers to 10.0.1.1 but it did not help.)

I seem to recall that at least at some point that there was an issue
with VARPC configuring networking correctly, specifically the resolver.
NetSurf reads the resolver configuration at start up and uses its own
internal DNS code rather than using the OS's provided one. If VA does
not set this variable promptly enough (or it gets unset somehow) then
NetSurf may struggle to resolve.
Are you launching NetSurf at boot? If so, try launching it after boot?
I don't recall the names of the environment variables involved to ask
you to see what they're set to, sorry.

I have the same problem with RISC OS 6.2 on a Mac OS 10.8.2. My guess
is that the modules are not up to date but I have yet to look into it.

NetSurf on Virtual Acorn
Hi All,
I have Virtual Acorn on my Mac G5 running OS 10.5.8. The RISC OS in VA is 4.39.
Netsurf 2.9 runs nicely on this set up but I have had no luck with any of the later
development versions. I have just downloaded 3.0 Dev #833 with the same result.
The problem is that all the recent versions don't connect to the internet. The
message I get is "Resolving timed out after 30000 milliseconds." The settings are
the same ones that 2.9 is using, so I am at a loss with what to do. Has any one got
a fix for this?
The development versions all run well on my Risc PC under OS 3.5. So the
problem seems to be specific to VA and the development versions on the Mac.
Regards, Alan

There is a big can of worms here that needs a lot of work to do properly,

Yes, via symbolic linking. Though I believe something is similarly
possible under Windows too.
This page has a few suggestions under the Sharing HostFS with Virtual Risc
PC [1] with regards to linking.

[1] I really recommend not mixing hostfs from Virtual RPC and RPCEmu, they
implement HostFS meta data in different ways (Virtual RPC (2 variations),
Virtual A5000 and Red Squirrel implement it in incompatible ways already).

No problem. If development is still in progress, could I ask again if
the Windows version could be made to allow the hostfs folder to be moved
out of the RPCEmu folder? This would enable several RPCEmu installations
to access the same files, via HostFS. I understand that this is already
possible with the Linux version.

Just for info, if you're wondering why we haven't altered the

[Rpcemu] RISC OS 6 install instructions - revised
Hi all,
New revised instructions for installing RISC OS 6 on RPCemu, to take into account the recent testing by Tony Moore confirming compatibility with other RISC OS 6 versions (essentially, just changed RISC OS 6.20 to RISC OS 6, and added Tony's email).
New version at:
http://www.geraldholdsworth.co.uk/Installing%20RISC%20OS%206.pdf
Can someone post this on csa.apps please? (I currently don't have newsgroups access).
Cheers,
Gerald.

It does, under the right mouse button, but no amount of clicking is
going to customise a toolbar that can't be edited.

OTOH, if GTK provides a context sensitive menu using a different button,
then try that over the toolbar and see what happens.

You do not have to keep !NewsDir inside !Boot. I know that is the default as
installed by Messenger, but a lot of people think it's a bad idea to have
large quantities of user data stashed away inside !Boot and if you move it
elsewhere and make sure it is "seen" on booting, then Messenger will be
perfectly happy.

Not necessarily. I believe the GTK version (which I'm pretty sure is
what is being used) does not have its own help file, but instead links
to the NetSurf website. The documentation area of the NetSurf website
is, as I'm sure you are aware, targetted at the RISC OS version of
NetSurf.
Perhaps the correct information to provide to Ken, is that the toolbar
on the GTK version of NetSurf is not cutomisable.

These are RISC OS conventions, and refer to the three button mouse.
Menu is the middle button, clicking it will open a context sensitive
menu under the pointer. Select is the left mouse button, and Adjust is
the right mouse button.
If you see "File" "Edit" "View" etc. then you probably aren't using
RISC OS.

RISC OS uses a three button mouse. The middle button, or often nowadays a
scroll wheel, is the 'Menu' button, and it is this mouse button to which
the above refers.
> The other point I am having trouble with is when discussing Toolbar Icons

Similarly, the left button is called 'Select' and the right button
'Adjust', and therefore the 'Click' referred to here is the clicking of the
right and left mouse buttons respectively.
Thus, from left to right, the three mouse buttons are: Select, Menu,
Adjust, and their names usually start with a capital to avoid the obvious
confusion and ambiguity which may be partly contributing to your problems
and those of other newcomers to the OS.
Hope this helps,
John

Select, Menu and Adjust are the three mouse buttons, from left to
right. Standard RISC OS usage; perhaps you need a RISC OS manual!

Try also copying cmos.ram, and rpc.cfg, from Samsung to Sony. When 'disc

Ok, how's this then.
Take a working system on the samsung laptop.
Close down the emulator
Rename the file hd4.hdf to AAhd4.hdf
Copy file to data stick
Rename copy on data stick back to hd4.hdf
Move stick to Sony Vaio
Delete the existing hd4 file on the Vaio
Move the data stick version into place on the vaio
ie. Program files(x86)/RPCEmu
Run emulator on Vaio *** It fails disc not understood ***
Copy this new failed version back onto the data stick
Move data stick back to samsung and copy hd4 into RPCEmu.
RUN Emulator on SAMSUNG. Works fine.
This after I've twice re-installed the emulator.
After months struggling with the networking on an XP machine to realise it
would never be reliable or even approach it, to now get this I'm really
starting to think this is a wind up.

[GeSHi-devel] lsl.php language flie update
Hello everyone,
I have created a new project to maintain a database of keywords for
LSL (Linden Scripting Language), and generate output suitable for the
syntax highlighting capabilities of various projects. That includes
the Second Life viewer itself, the LSLForge eclipse plugin, the Kate
editor and, of course, GeSHi.
LSL is quite alive and gets updated every while. Just In the last week
two constants were added. The GeSHi syntax highlighting file for LSL
present in the repository is very out of date and lacks many new
keywords. As a result, lots of webs that use GeSHi's LSL highlighting
fail to highlight many functions and constants that are now in wide
use.
The project, written in Python, takes an input template and merges it
with the database, in XML format, through an output driver, generating
the resulting output file.
The resulting output, which is up to date with the latest additions to
the language, is here:
http://code.google.com/p/kwdb/source/browse/outputs/geshi_lsl2.php
It will be kept up to date with additions to the database file. The
corresponding input template is here:
http://code.google.com/p/kwdb/source/browse/inputs/geshi_lsl2.php.in
The project homepage, including the database and the generation program, is:
http://code.google.com/p/kwdb/
Please incorporate the updated syntax highlighter. Feel free to modify
it at will to adapt it to the project's needs. If you think you
require me to include a copyright notice, or see any other legal
problem, please tell me.

ctrl-arrow keys in Ro
Something went wrong with Netsurf's implementation of the Ctrl-arrow
keys in Acornland quite some while ago.
The standard Acorn behaviour in almost all other apps is that Ctrl
supercharges the arrow keys to take you all the way in that direction.
In other words, Ctrl-up scrolls you all the way to the top of a
window, Ctrl-right all the way to the right, etc. (I presume this is
in the Style Guide.)
Try it. Shrink any Netsurf page (with its bottom-right gadget) to a
small size so that it needs scrolling.
In Netsurf #616, and in 2.9 --
Ctrl-up works as expected
Ctrl-down does nothing
Ctrl-left takes you all the way RIGHT
Ctrl-right takes you all the way LEFT
In 2.8, 2.7 -- Ctrl-down does nothing; other three work.
In 2.5 -- all Ctrl-arrow keys work as expected.

That doesn't help either. It's particularly annoying with Edit when
you have a cpu-intensive process running in background. Edit jumps one
line every time it gets in.
With NetSurf it's the opposite. I try turning the scroll wheel very
slowly and nothing happens, then slightly faster and it jumps more
than a page.

I've noticed that recently I've had to log into my forum every
session. Previously I stayed logged in using a cookie. The forum
scripts haven't changed. Could this be something in NetSurf or could
it be caused by some security change on the server. Most of my hosting
problems are traced to mod-security settings.

Sorry, what I didn't make clear is that I don't use the network functions from the Emu. Too much trouble.
What I do is use the HostFS disk. This disk is shared by the host machine (in my case a Mac). My RiscPC can access the shared disk from the host with ftp of samba. This way the RiscPC can read/write files on the hostfs part of the disc.
The emu also read/writes to the hostfs so although the emu doesn't use any network functions, it can still share it disc with other acorn machines.

Iyonix/ARMini cookie behaviour inconsistency
In the case of the mysterious 'round in circles' bug 3324329
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3324329&group_id=51719&atid=464312
where it is only possible to log in to this website by first deleting
all site-related cookies (having first refreshed them by actually
displaying the log-in page - you can't save time by deleting them in
advance!), I have now come across an even weirder permutation.
Using dev 825 (with JavaScript included but configured *off) it is now
possible to log in to http://www.ravelry.com running Netsurf on the
ARMini but not on the Iyonix, where the cookie-deletion workaround is
still required. I recorded (and have uploaded) logs of the same
sequence of actions on both computers, but can't detect any immediately
obvious significant differences (save that the *successful* run contains
the line

Unfortunately here it is not simple, sure setting it up is quite straight
forward, but the method used (bridging) means the appearance of my network
card is changed and so other things tied to that will not work.
If I temporarily un-bridge the Emu connection so other things can network,
when re-bridged, Emu networking fails, and even a re-boot won't fix it.
It'll stay broken until I re-do the install process again. again, again...
Really can't be bothered to do that over and over.
Dave
What would work, I guess, if there was some way of forcing the Emu bridge
to have the required MAC address. (Same as network card).
On Win 7 BTW.

Unfortunately here it is not simple, sure setting it up is quite straight
forward, but the method used (bridging) means the appearance of my network
card is changed and so other things tied to that will not work.
If I temporarily un-bridge the Emu connection so other things can network,
when re-bridged, Emu networking fails, and even a re-boot won't fix it.
It'll stay broken until I re-do the install process again. again, again...
Really can't be bothered to do that over and over.
Dave
What would work, I guess, if there was some way of forcing the Emu bridge
to have the required MAC address. (Same as network card).
On Win 7 BTW.

Toolbar Customisation
I am trying to use Netsurf on a Raspberry Pi and I am having trouble understanding parts of the Netsurf User Guide. There, Under Toolbar Customisation, is this passage:
'To move the icons around , enable toolbar edit mode by clicking menu over the toolbar and choosing "Edit toolbar". This will open the toolbar editing panel.'
I don't understand what is meant by 'clicking menu over the toolbar'. All I can see above the toolbar is the usual menu list of File Edit View Navigate and Help. I have tried a right click on the toolbar, but nothing happens.
The other point I am having trouble with is when discussing Toolbar Icons the guide refers to 'Adjust Click' and 'Select Click'. I have not met these terms.

Yes; the way the clipboard is handled internally has changed, and it's
waiting for the RISC OS frontend to be updated to cope.

Clipboard not working #824
There appears to be a problem with the clipboard in 3.0 #824.
Within a NetSurf window ctrl-c and ctrl-v work as normal but anything
put on the clipboard from outside the NS window does not get inserted
into writable icons using ctrl-v.
The Clipboard works properly in 2.9

Probably. As I recall, it didn't work that way previously.

I see. Perhaps I have misunderstood how animation rendering is performed.
I thought Flash was used on the dark side for animation rendering, eg
http://www.jacquielawson.com/
various examples.
Are you saying that just ain't possible on the RISC OS platform, please?

With older versions of the RPCEmu I had a lot of trouble with corrupt HD images. When I got it all working I made a backup of HD4 so I wanted to keep the size as small as possible. My !Boot is only 5 MB so for my 256 MB is big enough. But YMMV.

Re: [Rpcemu] Disc not understood
Networking is easy because you can use the network of the host machine. The RPCEmulator writes/reads from HostFS, my remote RiscPC uses FTP to access the HostFS part of the disc.
This way I can use it almost like connecting two RiscPC's together.
