Re^2: New-to-Perl: recommendations for windows setup? and the linked thread explain my transition but, like you, I used AS for a long time. The first or second London Raspberry Jam had a demo of RiscOS on the Pi and, since reading https://hothardware.com/news/raspberry-pi-microsoft-repository-phones-home-added-pi-os, I have been investigating alternatives to whatever the new official name for Raspbian now is. I understand that there is a "pure" Debian available and, if that allows 64 bit, I will be very interested, even though all the Pis I use are version 1 with 256 or 512Mb. There is certainly a Pi version of Ubuntu available, but https://www.theregister.com/2021/02/11/azure_ubuntu_data_sharing/ scares me. Debian (again AIUI) is in a code freeze before a major upgrade, so I shall wait before making critical decisions.

John Davies

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
