I've deviated from this to look at the header file:
   / castle / RiscOS / Sources / Programmer / HdrSrc / hdr / SWIs

Is this an authorative list, or is a list held elsewhere? I ask because 
my allocations aren't in this list. While I don't presume to think my 
stuff belongs mentioned in the official source, I'm just interested to 
know if there is an available "authoritative" list of SWIs.


BTW, there are numerous mentions, with differing numbers, of:
   NKelleherRerserved1SWI
             ^^ ?


Best wishes,

Rick.

No, there is not, just as there is not an authoritative list of file 
types. The reason for both is that the full list as managed by the 
allocation system contains allocations for third party products under 
development that need to be treated as confidential. There has never 
been a mechanism for developers to "clear" an allocated SWI name or 
file type after a product has been completed and released. So, up to 
this date, all third party allocations have to be treated as 
confidential and cannot appear in the official headers.

The above SWIs header file is an excerpt from the full list with just 
the entries for the vendor "Acorn", i.e., just the SWIs that Acorn 
allocated for its own use.

Thanks!  Now, if only I could remember why I needed to know that two years
ago, I could make use of the information... :-)
