  • Currency Gets Markdown

    From Kevin Wells@3:633/10 to All on Friday, August 21, 2026 06:45:07
    Hi

    My currency exchange application for RISC OS called Currency has been
    upgraded to version 2.07

    New in this version is the ability to save both the historical and World
    Bank data as a text file with Markdown code, for inserting into web
    forums that support Markdown. A couple of other updates are a spelling
    mistake on the historical window's title bar has been fixed in which
    from was spelt as fron and all references to my web site go the https
    instead of the http versions.

    It can be downloaded from:

    <https://kevsoft.co.uk/#Currency>

    It does require a working internet connection and wget to work plus an
    API key from the exchange rate provider Exchange Rates Data API, with
    the World Bank data coming from the World Bank.

    Wget:

    <http://www.riscos.info/packages/NetworkDetails.html#Wgetarm>

    Exchange Rates Data API:

    <https://marketplace.apilayer.com/exchangerates_data-api>

    World Bank:

    <https://www.worldbank.org/>

    IF you find this or other of my software useful why not purchase some of
    my merchandise or donate some money through my Ko-Fi pages.

    Thanks.
