    From Mike@21:1/5 to All on Mon Oct 25 21:31:24 2021
    Accidentally deleted !Printers from my Raspberry Pi running RiscOS. Can anyone point me to whare to download a copy. Been searching Risc sites for hours. Much thanks, Mike

    Although downloading the entire HardDisc4 image will definitely cure a missing !Printers, it's worth mentioning that all the standard supplied apps (outside of !Boot) are available as individual ZIPs too:
    https://packages.riscosopen.org/rool/ABCIndex.html

    And indeed as you mention being on a Raspberry Pi if you run !PackMan you'll find Printer Manager in its list (though behind the scenes it's just downloading the exact same ZIP file). Having deleted one of the apps it knows about by mistake you need to
    click 'Remove' as it doesn't seem to spot the deletion. Then go back and click 'Install' and it'll heal the missing application for you,
    Sprow.
