I assume you meant StrongFont, not Transient, there!

Although this is slightly relevant to a problem I've had with Transient,
in that the current version available for download insists on Toolbox
1.71 or something in that region, which is only available on the ROL
fork - ROOL modules, as you've mentioned, don't go higher than 1.53.

Andrew Rawnsley has uploaded a modified version to the ARMini private
users' area which has all the version number checks changed to 0.00, and
given that this works fine, I think it would be a good idea to do that
in the official release - and for all your other applications (such as
StrongFont) while you're at it, as the currently distributed versions
don't work out of the box on RISC OS 5.
