RISC OS Articles by Peter Naulls

These are articles I've written about RISC OS - mostly their intent is to explain technical or complex issues in lay terms. Some appear on drobe.co.uk, some have been published in magazines, and others are hosted on this website.

• RISC OS and 32-bit - an explanation of the significance of 32-bit to RISC OS and the move from 26-bit software.
• ARM on ARM emulation - a proposal for running ARM code on a real ARM machine for the purposes of machine emulation.
• The RISC OS Browser issue - a discussion of why there have been so many RISC OS web browsers, and why it is so difficult to produce one.
• RISC OS and C libraries - A discussion about how C libraries work in RISC OS and the future of Unixlib.
• RISC OS Object formats - About the binary formats used when programming on RISC OS and the argument for moving to ELF.
• Cross platform development - how to cross compile programs for RISC OS under Windows and Linux.
• One-Step Compilation - Using the GCCSDK autobuilder to save time and avoid errors.
• Shared Libraries - about shared libraries on RISC OS.
• ChoX11 and Porting - the significance of an X11 replacement library for RISC OS.
• Filename translation - The handling of RISC OS filenames when moving files to and from other operating systems.
• XScale Clarification - a discussion about different types of XScale processors, and which aspects affect performance.
• Business and RISC OS - An exploration of the RISC OS Business model and practices.
• RISC OS PCI - discussion of RISC OS PCI implementations.
