ABOUT ROUGOL

ROUGOL is a not-for-profit organisation consisting of Acorn/RISC OS computer users in London and the south-east. Our aim is to bring those users together. There is no membership fee and entry to all meetings is free. To find out more, email us.

MEETINGS

Meetings are held on the third Monday of every month. Most meetings feature a guest speaker, demonstrating the latest hardware or software, giving tutorials of software both new and old, or simply to kick off discussions on the current hot topic. Entrance is free, so why not come along and say hello?


Next meeting - Monday 21st April 2025 
Drag n Drop - Chris Dewhurst

For this bank holiday Monday meeting, Chris Dewhurst will be Zooming in from Scotland to talk about Drag n Drop, the magazine for 8bit and 32bit Acorn/RISC OS machines. Originally started by Paul Stewart back in 2009, Chris took over as editor at the end of 2012 with the start of volume 4 and has now reached volume 14!

Drag n Drop is released quarterly in PDF format suitable for reading on any device. It is not necessary to take out a subscription, just visit the website to download the latest issue. As well as news and reviews, there is an emphasis on programming and software tutorials.

Chris has also published several books, both in electronic and physical formats. These include a pair of beginners guides to WIMP programming, games development, and a Schema2 tutorial, amongst others.

Join us to hear about all of this and more from Chris, either online via Zoom or why not do a bit of bank holiday sightseeing before coming along to the pub for some food and a drink.
