The RISC OS desktop
A
n introduction to the desktop environment of RISC OS.
The RISC OS desktop
RISC OS is the name of the operating system of your computer, which controls the
way the computer appears to you, and how it does other things. There's more on this
subject in the RISC OS 3 User and Applications Guide, if you're interested.
By now, you should have successfully powered up your computer, and be able to see
the RISC OS desktop on your screen.
The desktop is your working area. At first it is clear, except for the bar across the
bottom of the screen. As you perform tasks and use applications, things will be added
to the desktop. You can move them around, change their size, hide and remove them
to make room for others.
Icons
The pictures in the lower margin of the screen represent the tools and storage devices
available. They are called icons. The area they occupy is called the icon bar.
(Your icon bar may have more icons on the lefthand side — see overleaf).
