Are you using RISC OS? None of the software here works with MS-Windows, Mac OS or anything else. Microsoft Word users should check the Hidden Settings dialogue in MS-Word(9KB) before you return from whence you came.
Firstly, here are some of my old Euclid sample files (11KB) new users could consider examples. They relate to various theatre sets I have designed and constructed.
Secondly, here are some RISC OS public domain and/or and freeware applications:
Clipdraw (14KB) by Derek Baron. This will allow you to clip a rectangular section from a drawfile.
The RISC User Desktop Dustbin - called '!WasteBin (6KB)' - by David Spencer (1989!). Though it may not have the bells and whistles of other utilities, it deletes files; that is all I need it for. It stores them in a temporary directory inside itself and does not intercept the filer delete.
Thirdly, here is my MimeMap file. This file lives in !Boot.Resources.!Internet.files (on RISC OS 5.12 and 3.70) and needs to be kept up-to-date with new filetypes as they appear, and old ones as they change. The information in the file is used by the system to correctly type files received and sent from RISC OS from and to other OSes. I hope to keep this file as up-to-date as possible. The link will load the file 'mimemap' into your browser. All remaining information is there.
and Fourthly, I write the occasional utility. Usually simple. Just something I need for a specific purpose but couldn't find elsewhere.
add/emlSome email providers want spam messages to be returned as a MIME attachment and with a PC .eml extension. This app simply installs to the iconbar and any file dropped on it will have /eml added to its leafname. With Pluto it is a simple matter to 'Export' the original spam message to a temporary directory, drop the file on the add/eml icon and then drag the renamed file to a Pluto write window. Quicker to do than write. ;-) Please heed the warning in the app's !Help file.

Bell I became tired of the loud and intrusive (or inaudible) standard Acorn 'Beep' on RISC OS 3.n, so created 'Bell' instead. An attempt at a much gentler nudge by those programs which insist on using BELL (VDU7). (It isn't the sound of a bell but calling it that saves me confusion!)

File 2 CaretThis mini application, allows a file (containing text usually) to be dropped onto the icon-bar icon. The contents of the file will be typed in at the current caret position. Very useful for users of Prophet who wish to import a single address, say. With Prophet's multi-line writeable icons use Edit's CR/LF option before import. It is also able to write text to a Fresco web page text field (where the Clipboard does not work).

OpenDir This pseudo application, which is nothing more than a collection of obey files disguised as odd directory folders, provides links to any directory from any other. It is useful, for example, for Voyager users sometimes to find their outgoing email, which is buried somewhere inside !Voyager. As long as !Voyager has been seen by the filer, OpenDir can find the email for you. Nothing complicated, but a few useful things to attach to your pinboard.
