Hi Vincent, thanks for the web page and information.
I have a couple of questions which will almost certainly sound idiotic,
but which principally stem from the fact that I have no previous
experience whatsoever with the Archimedes or RISC OS, and am approaching
Bush STB hacking from the platform of Linux/x86 (from fairly intensive
web trawls, ISTM that only fully paid-up members of the RISC OS "club"
can actually get any information about it.)
1) What format needs to be on the zip disk? (I can mount, read and write
ADFS from my Linux system, but I can't actually build an ADFS FS - no
one seems to have written a "mkadfs" utility analogous to mkisofs etc.
2) Sorry about this, but what is the taskwindow module, and why is it
needed?
