Have you tried the links in Qercus 284? That Magnetic Scrolls interpreter
(v1.1 here) runs on my RO6 RiscPC.

I've just noticed that I've not put those on the website - must do that
later...

BTW: I've just realised that I've said somewhere that Qercus 286 is out
this

about to go to the printers with <something else>.
