Since Rob Sprowson of Elesar Ltd last visited ROUGOL he has been busy on several hardware and software projects. At this month's meeting Rob will be talking about some/all of these, and maybe what he has planned next.

The most recent release has been a new version of the business accounts package Prophet. This update makes it fully compatible with modern systems, without requiring Aemulor, as well as adding updates to current tax rates, more style guide compliance, and a revised manual.

At the end of last year Rob revealed a new Raspberry Pi hardware addon, in the form a HAT (Hardware Attached on Top) that adds a serial and parallel port. Device drivers are supplied to make usage from RISC OS simple.

Other recent announcements from Elesar have included bundled SSDs with the Titanium, improved dual screen handling, updates to Font Directory Pro, and away from RISC OS, improved Titanium Linux support. So there should something to interest everyone!

Links to topics mentioned in the meeting:

• Prophet business accounts
• Serial/Parallel HAT for the Pi
• Font Directory Pro
• Titanium (with User Guide included in the price)
• PIC programming with the example PIC projects at the bottom of the reference section, to save having to type them in.
