I have got yesterday Perl 5.005 for Acorn-machines and.... txt2pdf runs! No problem - no change in the script is necessary. I recommend following things: Users (with RiscOS 3.5) should use X-files (or a similar filesystem) - if someone have RiscoS 4.0 there is no need for X-Files. Create a new X-Files-drawer and unpack the perl-script and the configuration file to this new drawer. Then they have to change the filetype of the script (txt2pdf) to PERL (the !Perl-appliaction must be seen by the filer). Now they can use in taskwindow/shell the script. For viewing the new pdf-document - you have to set the filetype to PDF and view the pdf-file with !PDF. Tested with a RiscPC/StrongARM-200 and RiscOS 3.5 (64MByte RAM). I hope this helps! !txt2pdf This is a frontend for the perl-script "txt2pdf" by SANFACE-software. The script produces PDF-files (Adobe Acrobat) from plain text. Requires: JFShared-Library by Justin Fletcher, !Perl for RiscOS and the txt2pdf-perl-script the txt2pdf-perl-script You can find every new version at http://www.burkert.org/leo/acorn/ Regards LEO
