Regulars/RuntheRISC/!PortMon/!Help

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.

This application allows you to monitor and control the signals on the
Printer Port.
If you have a single direction printer port and the bidirection emulator
hardware then edit the !RUN file.

Otherwise just click and play.

Revision
Version 1.2 Added bidirectional emulator loader and improved performance
            when switching from inputs to outputs.
Version 1.1 can be used on computers fitted with the old Printer Ports,
            as well as Bi-directional ones.
