of RISC OS Select installed then you will be able to view the
directories in upper and lowercase and with the full length
filenames.


2. Release Notes
================

2.1 Installation
----------------

All the archives on this CD are zip archives which require
you to either have a copy of SparkFS or Spark or Sparkplug.

A self extracting version of Sparkplug is included in the
Resources directory if you have none of the above.

There are three possible Installation routines.

1. To install RISC OS Select onto a clean Hard Drive
2. To upgrade from RISC OS 4.02/4.03/4.04 to 4.29
3. To upgrade from an existing Select Installation to 4.29

N.B. RISC OS 4.29 refers to the Kernel Version number only.
The Boot Sequence and other Applications will change at different
rates. i.e There may be changes to the Boot sequence to cope with
new features that do not demand a new Kernel number.
Look at the !Boot.PartNumber file to determine which Boot
sequence you have installed. Please make sure that you always
have the latest Boot installed.

Usage of RISC OS Select requires that you already have a set
of RISC OS 4 ROMs in your computer. If you do not have RISC OS 4
then you will need to purchase a set of ROMs before you can use
RISC OS Select. 

It is advisable to printout the following section if you have
any concerns over the installation of RISC OS Select.

2.1.1 Installing RISC OS Select onto a clean Hard Drive.
--------------------------------------------------------

If you want to install a nice new big drive into your computer
then the recommended procedure is as follows:-

a.  Remove the CD ROM drive from your computer and install
    the new hard drive in its place. Make sure the new hard drive
    is configured as the slave drive using the links on the back
    of the drive.

b.  Format the new drive :5 with !HForm.

c.  Copy the contents of your original hard drive onto the new
    drive.

d. Shut down the computer.

e. Remove the old drive from the computer and replace it with
   the new drive (after changing its links so that it is now the
   Master Drive.)

Now proceed with the Installation instructions for
section 2.1.2 or 2.1.3 as appropriate.

Alternatively you can take your machine to a RISC OS Dealer
or an Authorised Installer who will be happy to perform
the job for you at their usual rates.

2.1.2 Upgrading from RISC OS 4.0x for the first time.
--------------------------------------------------------------

This should be straightforward if you have a standard machine
configuration. i.e 1 x ADFS hard drive and 1 x CDROM drive.

In order to accomodate an easy return to running RISC OS 4.0x
the contents of your existing !Boot directory are moved inside
the new Select !Boot structure and will appear in the OldBoot
directory. If you still have any InactivRes directories leftover
from previous RISC OS 4 installations then you can probably now
safely delete them.

The Installer will only install the new !Boot structure.

The other hard disc based components such as !ChangeFSI etc
will have to be manually installed from the HardDisc1i9/zip
archive. The final location of these applications on your hard
drive is not important, but we suggest you install them into the
same directories as they are in the archive file.
Remember that unlike Windows you can happily move applications
around on your hard drive without limitation!

   a. First take a copy of your existing !Boot sequence either
      onto CD or onto a backup directory on your hard drive.
      If anything fails during installation you will then have a
      backup copy. The Installer does NOT delete your old !Boot
      directory, but simply moves it inside the new !Boot into
      the OldBoot directory.

   b. Run !InsSelect

   c. You will be asked to ensure that you have quit all
      applications. You should either quit all the applications
      and press Continue, or select the 'Quit tasks' option for
      applications to be quit automatically.
      If any application had unsaved data it will ask you to
      save that data before being quit. The installer will
      identify this and warn you of this fact. You should save
      the data and re-run the Installer.

   d. Read the licence presented to you. When you have read and
      agreed to the terms, press the Accept button. If you do
      not agree to the terms you should remove any parts of the
      software you have already copied and return the CD and
      packaging to your supplier.

   e. The installer will pause for a moment to check that the
      archives it is about to install have not become corrupt or
      been tampered with, and then ask where to install Select.
      This will default to any previous installation which has
      been seen. You may drag the Boot icon to a location to
      install the Select boot sequence, or drag a previous
      installation to the window to use it. Once the
      location has been set, press 'Continue'

   f. The various phases of the installation will be performed.
      Where no previous boot sequence is being updated this will
      be just a copy of the new boot sequence. For an update,
      this will involve merging parts of your old boot sequence.
      You should confirm each stage of this update.

   g. When complete, the installer will ask for a ROM image to
      use. You should drag a ROM image or ROM image archive to
      the window to install it as the initial ROM to use. If you
      do not wish to install a ROM, you may just press Skip and
      the installation will default to 'No softload'.

   h. The installation is complete. Press 'Exit', shutdown and
      reboot the machine.

   i. Once the machine has booted into Select, the Task Manager
      icon will have changed to a green 'cog', rather than the
      more familiar '4 Cube'.
      If the icon is still the '4 Cube' you are using the 'No
      softload' variant of Select. This has reduced
      functionality. Use the configuration tool to select a
      Softload image. Select has a significantly different
      configuration application suite.
      You should look through it confirming the options you wish
      to use.
      Use the Help tool for more information on the options it
      provides.

2.1.3 Upgrading from an existing RISC OS Select Installation.
-------------------------------------------------------------

This is potentially the trickiest option if you try to
perform the upgrade manually. We thus recommend that you
only use the Installer.

   a. First take a copy of your existing !Boot sequence either
      onto CD or onto a backup directory on your hard drive.

   b. Run !InsSelect

   c. You will be asked to ensure that you have quit all
      applications. You should either quit all the applications
      and press Continue, or select the 'Quit tasks' option for
      applications to be quit automatically.
      If any application had unsaved data it will ask you to
      save that data before being quit. The installer will
      identify this and warn you of this fact. You should save
      the data and re-run the Installer.

   d. Read the licence presented to you. When you have read and
      agreed to the terms, press the Accept button. If you do
      not agree to the terms you should remove any parts of the
      software you have already copied and return the CD and
      packaging to your supplier.

   e. The installer will pause for a moment to check that the
      archives it is about to install have not become corrupt or
      been tampered with, and then ask where to install Select.
      This will default to any previous installation which has
      been seen. You may drag the Boot icon to a location to
      install the Select boot sequence, or drag a previous
      installation to the window to use it. Once the
      location has been set, press 'Continue'

   f. The various phases of the installation will be performed.
      Where no previous boot sequence is being updated this will
      be just a copy of the new boot sequence. For an update,
      this will involve merging parts of your old boot sequence.
      You should confirm each stage of this update.

   g. When complete, the installer will ask for a ROM image to
      use. You should drag a ROM image or ROM image archive to
      the window to install it as the initial ROM to use. If you
      do not wish to install a ROM, you may just press Skip and
      the installation will default to 'No softload'.

   h. The installation is complete. Press 'Exit', shutdown and
      reboot the machine.

   i. Once the machine has booted into Select, the Task Manager
      icon will have changed to a green 'cog', rather than the
      more familiar '4 Cube'.
      If the icon is still the '4 Cube' you are using the 'No
      softload' variant of Select. This has reduced
      functionality. Use the configuration tool to select a
      Softload image. Select has a significantly different
      configuration application suite.
      You should look through it confirming the options you wish
      to use.
      Use the Help tool for more information on the options it
      provides. 

2.2 RISC OS 4.02 <-> Select switching via the Softloader
--------------------------------------------------------

The new softloader mechanism within RISC OS Select allows
for three different setups to be used on a machine.

1. No softload
   .. uses the new RISC OS Select Boot sequence
   but with the RISC OS 4.02/4.03 ROM image.
   Some of the configuration plugin options are not
   available in this mode.

2. Original boot sequence
   Reverts the machine to using the original ROM image and the
   original Boot sequence.

3. New RISC OS Select ROMimage and Boot sequence.

Please note that due to differences in CMOS settings between
different ROM kernel versions it is advisable to perform a
Delete Power on when first installing a new ROM image.

If reverting from a RISC OS Select Boot and ROMimage to
a 4.02 version then it is advisable to Power down between
Reboots.

2.3 Unplugged modules
---------------------

If you are running a machine which requires Modules to be
unplugged then you should make a note of any modules which are
unplugged using the command *unplug before upgrading to Select,
or before installing new ROMimages. After upgrading to RISC OS
Select for the first time, or after installing a new ROM image
you should check to ensure that the correct modules are still
unplugged.
This is because of differing numbers of modules and their
position in a RISC OS kernel leading to the incorrect module
becoming unplugged when a new ROM is installed. Generally you
can use the command *RMReinit <module> to restore it. Some
modules can however only be restored by performing a Delete
power on.

2.4 32 bit Shared C Library
---------------------------

There were beta versions of the 32 bit Shared C Library made
available for evaluation during 2001. These are recognisable as
being C Library version 5.xx These were strictly time limited
versions and should not have been used for any software intended
for anything other than personal evaluation. There were known
bugs in those beta versions and to prevent them causing problems
with RISC OS Select releases we have prevented the softloading
of them.

An error message stating that Shared C Library cannot be RAM
loaded will be displayed if you have got the newer versions
installed.

We are aware that some programmers have chosen to use those beta
versions and later unofficial versions in various applications
that they have made publicly available.

Unfortunately we cannot support any later 32 bit versions of
Shared C Library under RISC OS Select, until we get an official
source code release of those later versions from Pace. Once
that has happened we will provide proper support within
RISC OS Select for the new 32 bit compatible Shared C Library.

In the meantime if you are using any software that requires the
use of the 32 bit Shared C Libraries, you will have to contact
the authors of that software in order to obtain a version that
doesn't need the newer Shared C Library.

2.5 Viewfinder graphics cards
-----------------------------

If you are using a Viewfinder graphics card then you should
ensure that your RISC OS monitor type is explicitly configured.
i.e this will usually be *Configure MonitorType 3
If the Monitortype is configured to Auto then the Viewfinder
will not display anything until the desktop stage is reached.

2.6 Changes from previous versions of Select
--------------------------------------------

Whilst there have been many changes between different releases
of Select, most will be invisible to the end user.
However the following should be noted:-

2.6.1 Internet Configuration
----------------------------

With the advent of DHCP support a number of changes have been
made to the Internet configuration tools which may have an
effect on third party plugins which were released for earlier
versions of Select.

2.6.2 Apparent slowdown and excessive disc access
-------------------------------------------------

Softload ROM image Standard1e - RISC OS 4.28 had a fault which
caused incorrect Broadcast messages, which caused some
applications such as !Printers to generate excessive disc access
and cause a system slowdown. This fault has been cured in this
release of Select. RISC OS 4.28 should not be used.


3. Preview components
=====================

3.1 !Printers+
--------------

This is a work in progress version of the new network enabled
!Printers. !Printers+ saves its choices into
<Choices$Write>.Printers2 so that it is possible to have both
!Printers and !Printers+ installed at the same time with
different sets of PDFs installed in each version.
The 2 versions cannot be run at the same time though.

Printers+ adds the following features.

 * Paper feeds and output bins can now be configured for 'dp'
   and 'lj' printers, as well as for Postscript ones.

 * The Printer connection window has been much enhanced with
   new connection methods; if the relevant filing systems are
   installed then !Printers+ will allow connection via LanManFS,
   LanMan98, LPR, JetDirect or USB.

 * A new format of PDF has been created that allows both
   standard PDF information and resources (palette files, paper
   feeds, output bins, paper sizes etc) to be bundled together.
   The user can then install these new PDFs just by dropping one
   file in. A tool, !PrtBundle, has been built to allow simple
   creation/extraction of these bundled PDFs.

 * When using shared printers across Access networks resources
   for shared printers (such as palette files etc) no longer
   need to be installed locally on every machine.

 * !Printers+ can now be run with a -quit flag on the command
   line. This starts !Printers+, loads the modules required and
   configures the default printer, then exits. By running
   !Printers+ in this way at startup applications can instantly
   print without needing to load !Printers+ manually. This also
   uses the minimum amount of memory.

 * LJ based printing now copes better with non-A4 paper sizes.

Features planned for future releases are hoped to include.

 * Improved Postscript driver.
 
 * Enhanced Colour balancing/dithering algorithms.

 * A configure plug in for selecting printers from a list
   (printer manufacturer, printer model, PDF originator) with
   facilities for easily adding new printer definitions off disc.

 * Different "Profiles" for different users/setups etc.

3.2 Acorn Replay resources
--------------------------

This section contains 3 items.

SETUP  This is a sprite that enables the setup of your
monitor to match the typical gamma expected of a video
display.

!AREncode 0.66
The front end for encoding Replay files.

!ARPlayer 1.50
This is a Single Tasking desktop player for Replay files.

!ARWork
This is the "Scrap" directory for use when encoding Replay
files. It should be inserted inside !Boot.Resources

!ARMovie
Due to a last minute problem it has not been possible to
include the core !ARMovie resources on this CD.
They will be available on the web site as soon as possible
and on the next Select CD.

3.3 Omniclient with Appletalk support
-------------------------------------

This is the standard !Omniclient 2 release which has been
updated to include the Appletalk client.
Configuration of Omniclient is performed by the Omniclient
configuration plugin inside the Internet section of the
!Boot plugin tools.

3.4 Bugz 1.15
-------------

Bugz is a tool for reporting faults. It can be used to report
faults in RISC OS Select, or developers may use it to provide
feedback for their own applications from users.


4. Features of Select Release 1i9
=================================

4.1 New !Boot sequence
----------------------

The Select !Boot sequence is substantially different to previous
versions of RISC OS and Select. You must upgrade using the
!InsSelect application in order to ensure that the !Boot
sequence is correctly modified. The latest version of the
Installer will now be able to cope with all permutations of
upgrading.

4.2 New Configuration Plugin tools
----------------------------------

The major changes to the Plugin tools from previous versions
is that the Network configuration tools have been split
into separate items, meaning there are now 8 tools in that
section.

4.3 CDFS
--------

The new version of CDFS has primarily been designed to work with
modern high speed ATAPI drives. It will now cope with DVD drives
and provides access to Joliet and Rockridge extensions.
i.e if the drive has been prepared with those extensions then
you will be able to see upper and lower case and longfilenames
rather than just the standard ISO 9660 upper case 8.3 DOS spec
filenames.

4.4 Sharing Tool
----------------

It is possible to share directories by using the filer menu
'Share...'  option. Selecting a directory and choosing this
option will open a dialogue box to share the directory across an
Access network. When shared, the directory will show the share
logo. To unshare the directory or change its attribues, select
it and choose the 'Share...' option again. The share can then be
disabled, or unshared.

4.5 Multi-User logon
--------------------

RISC OS Select now supports logon from different users.
Run Interactive Help to view the configuration options
for the Multi-User logon.

4.6 Hardware profiles
---------------------

Hardware profiles are implemented in this version of Select
but have not been activated by default.

4.7 Universal Clipboard
-----------------------

All the standard RISC OS Applications. i.e !Paint, !Draw,
!Edit and !SciCalc now support cutting and pasteing to the
clipboard using the CTRL C, CTRL V keyboard shortcuts where
appropriate.

4.8 !Paint
----------

Paint is now loaded from Hard Disc rather than ROM.
In previous versions of Select it was loaded from the
RO420Hook.Apps directory. It has now been moved to $.Apps

Paint can now output in JPEG as well as Sprite format.
The quality and type of JPEG output is set by the
Paint$JPEGQuality variable.
The options for this variable are C | G = Colour | Grey
                                  1-100 = Quality
The default setting is Paint$JPEGQuality C75 i.e Colour and 75%
quality.

4.9 !Draw
---------

Draw is now loaded from Hard Disc rather than ROM.
In previous versions of Select it was loaded from the
RO420Hook.Apps directory. It has now been moved to $.Apps

Draw has been modified to support CTRL C and CTRL V Cut and
Paste. The function previously provided by CTRL C is now
available using the Duplicate option. (Duplicate does not have a
shortcut key combination.)

4.10 !Edit
----------

This version of !Edit now supports CTRL C and CTRL V Cut and
Paste.

4.11 New Diversions
-------------------

!Flagday
--------
This is a Minesweeper style program.

!Puzzle
-------
This classic puzzle has been updated and now allows the creation
of puzzles up to 25 x 25 blocks in size.


5. Use of RISC OS Select with RiscStation computers
===================================================

It is not officially supported yet, but the ROM image on this CD
will run on RiscStation R7500 computers if used with a special
softloader. We are not releasing this loader yet as there are
too many limitations for it to be generally useful.

We are working on a fully compatible version for later releases
of Select. Please contact mailto:developer@riscos.com if
you have a RiscStation computer and would like to be involved in
testing the R7500 softloader.

6. Known issues with Select1 Release 9
======================================

6.1 CDFS
--------

The very varying standards to which different CD manufacturers
adhere, are making it very hard to support every different
CD ROM drive which is officially classed as an ATAPI CD ROM
drive.

Older versions of CDFS supported drives then currently available
but did not offer the newer features which we have incorporated
into RISC OS Select.

We cannot unfortunately guarantee that the new drivers will
work with all types of older drives.

We have successfully tested the version of CDFS built into this
release of Select with a variety of current drives up to 52x,
including a number of DVD-ROM drives.

There is unfortunately a problem with reading multi-session
PhotoCDs which we have been unable to resolve. Single session
PhotoCDs work OK.

If you find problems with the Select CDFS then you can revert to
the old RISC OS 3.7 CDFS by using the !OldCDFS application
which is located in the Resources Directory on this CD.
Once this program is run and the machine rebooted a softload
version of CDFS v2.29 will be loaded which will give access to
types that give problems under the Select CDFS.

If you want to return to using the Select CDFS then you will have
to reconfigure the number of CD-ROM drives in order to
re-activate CDFS.

6.2 DHCP
--------

The DHCP implementation has been tested with Debian Linux based
PC servers, DHCP servers built in to Web Ramp ISDN routers,
Pocket Printer Servers and the University of Birmingham servers
as well as many others.
It does not currently work with the UK NTLWorld Cable Modem
service.
We are continuing our investigation into that service.
It has however been reported to work with some overseas cable
modem services.
See the dhcp/txt file in the Documents.TechNotes directory for
further details of the dhcp implementation.

6.3 PC Cards
------------

We have tested RISC OS Select with !PCPro 3.03 and a 586 card.
It works OK as long as you have sufficient memory installed.

There is a problem with the !PCConfig program failing to
run. We understand that Aleph1 are working on an updated version.

6.3.1 Error Unable to allocate PC RAM occurs
--------------------------------------------

If you have just upgraded to RISC OS Select from RISC OS 4.0x
you will now have 6MB less RAM available, because of the
RAM taken by the Select Softloaded ROM image. If this
message now occurs you will have to either reduce the amount
of RAM used by the PC Card, or else add extra RAM to your
machine.

6.3.2 Error No Boot Device! etc
-------------------------------

If you have an AMD 586 PC card from CJE then you will get the
error 'No boot device' if you have an out of date copy of
PCSleep in your PreDesk directory.
To fix the problem
* Remove any copy/directory called PCSleep from PreDesk.
* Shutdown and then TURN THE POWER OFF ( a reset is not
  sufficient!)
* Restart
* Install latest PC Sleep which is available from

6.4 DrawWorks 3rd Millennium
----------------------------

Some DrawWorks programs report an error relating to !Draw.
This is because !Draw is now a hard disc based component
rather than a ROM based application.
Please check the APDL Web Site for updates.

6.5 A7000+ with specific memory combinations
--------------------------------------------

It has been reported that some specific combinations of memory,
fitted to A7000+ will fail to load the Select Softload and will
fail with a green screen. The problem is likely to be due to
the hardware on the A7000+ incorrectly reporting the memory
layout and the softloader then being unable to allocate the
required memory for the ROM image.
We are still investigating this matter.

6.6 Kinetic cards with large amounts of motherboard RAM
-------------------------------------------------------

Whilst the normal RISC OS 4 ROM kernel will detect the presence
of large amounts of memory, attempts to load the Select Softload
kernel will fail with a green screen. We are still investigating
this matter.
