- RO2 / RO3 / RPC compatibility
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- RO2 means a machine fitted with RISC-OS 2, RO3 a machine fitted with
- RISC-OS 3.1 (and probably early A5000's with RISC-OS 3.0), RPC means any
- RISC PC 600 or 700 or the A7000.
-
- All program names are followed by a symbol ( - = ^ ~ ) and a
- description. This symbol is used as a code to indicate compatibility.
- The equals sign ( = ) means it seems to be RO2/RO3 compatible, a plus (
- + ) means it's an old RO2 program which works on RO3 but there may be
- minor problems which don't stop it functioning. A colon ( : ) means it's
- a RO3 only program but is probably OK on the RPC as well.
-
- With the introduction of the RPC the following additional symbols were
- introduced.
-
- A ^ means it works on the RPC, so it's probably OK on RO3, ~ means it
- won't work on the RPC
-
- If there is just a single dash this means it hasn't been tested for
- compatibility - please tell me if you have any information.
-
- This is only a rough guide and not a guarantee of compatibility. It
- would take until RISC-OS 42.6 to try every function of every program.
-
- There has not been time to test more than a very small number of these
- programs on a StrongARM, but so far almost everything that works on a
- 'normal' RPC seems to be OK.
-
-
- Some applications won't work properly from a Read Only media like a CD. This
- applies particularly to things like databases, and any program which
- saves a configuration file since they obviously can't save the file to a
- CD. If you get 'not open for update' or similar errors try copying the
- program to another drive like a hard or floppy disc.
