  • Typo error on RISC OS Open documentation

    From Bob Latham@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jul 10 16:12:59 2025
    Notice the mistake on this page.

    Says pointer returned in R1 should be R0. Such a simple part of some
    code I've written, never considered it may be incorrect. A few hours
    wasted.

    https://www.riscosopen.org/wiki/documentation/show/Territory_LowerCaseTable

    I'm not a user of the RISC OS open forums but I presume that's where
    there may be a means to report this, if anyone feels in a good mood
    could you pass this on for me please.


    Cheers,

    Bob.

    You are right, the description of this SWI is correct in PRM3 page
    836/846.

    It's a Wiki, so you could just fix it.
