This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

File contents
A formula is found by the dollar sign, its name traced backwards to the first [CR] or [LF] and the formula traced to the last [CR] or [LF]. This means that other text in this file must not use the dollar sign otherwise problems will occur. The following list will identify correctly. Bowl$COS(FNradiusR)*50 Bumps$COS(XR)*SIN(YR)*50 Egg Box$(ABS(XD)<270)*(ABS(YD)<270)*(COS(XR)*COS(YR))*50 Error$Atelier written by Simon Clay for Minerva Software. If a formula like the line 'Error' above is not a valid a formula it will be ignored. Flat$0 Hump$(FNradiusD<180)*(COS(FNradiusR/2))*-100 Peak$(FNradiusD*-.5)+COS(FNradiusR*2)*20 Pyramid$180+(ABS(XD)>=ABS(YD))*ABS(XD)+(ABS(XD)<ABS(YD))*ABS(YD)) Spike$COS(FNradiusR*2)*TAN(80-FNradiusR/4.5)*50 NOTE : ONLY THE FIRST 19 CHARACTERS OF A NAME ARE ACCEPTED, AND ONLY THE FIRST NINE FORMULAE ARE USED IN THE FILE. The variables available are XD goes from -360 on the left of the source,to +360 on the right YD goes from -360 on the bottom of the source to +360 on the top XR and YR are the same as XD and YD except in radians Functions available are FNradiusR-SQR(XR^2+YR^2) - Finds the radius from the center in radians FNradiusD-SQR(XD^2+YD^2) - Finds the radius from the center in degrees. These formulae will be listed by Atelier in its Formula Setup Menu. The list can be scrolled and selected. When a file of this nature is loaded Atelier scans it and when a formula is found it is read and used to build up a skeleton of its shape for the menu. If an error occurs when this skeleton is being calculated then that formula is ignored. Atelier also allows a single formula to be entered directly into the menu. Formulae can therefore be tested before transferring it to a file. Two formulae can have the same name as they are selected by their position in the list and not by name. Therefore, different names should be used to avoid confusion.
