Christmas Delights!
Game updates and a new online software and games directory!
Before I get to the news I wish everyone a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year to everyone in the RISC OS community and beyond!
Now for the news:
Alan Buckley has launched a new RISC OS friendly website that automatically shows the latest versions of several RISC OS ports of programs and games. The Autobuilder takes the source code from open source packages originally written for Unix-like platforms, and compiles them into RISC OS applications, ready for download by punters.
Thanks to the Autobuilder, a new version of a maths game for youngsters TuxMath can be downloaded for free from the webiste along with new versions of the MS-DOS emulator for the Iyonix, DOSBox and Battle for Wesnoth, a fantastic turn-based fantasy game very much like Heroes of Might and Magic 2. The Autobuilder also produces libraries including a new version of the libSDL package for all the coders out there.
