PD/!FontMsgs/!React/!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.

Use
=========
 A simple reaction timer, that allows you to press a mouse button in 
response to visual or audio stimuli. There is an option to send you at random
one stimulus, or the other.

Times are recorded and can be saved as textfiles. Averages are worked out.

In future CSV output will be supported.

The program has been amalgamated with !EventShell using
!BLibII by Ian Palmer.

The resulting program has been 'shrunk' using
!BasShrink by John Wallace.

EventShell =========

Thanks to Paul Hobbs for his very useful !EventShell System.

This application uses the library of routines of the above name, which
provide an easy way of genereating a Wimp Program. 


I recommend this system which can be obtained from APDL or other PD 
Libraries.

This program has been written using the routines supplied with the EvntShell
library which is copyright Paul Hobbs. The library routines may be
distributed subject to the following conditions:

You have permission to use any part or the whole library in a project you
intend to place in the public domain, as long as I am fully credited (via
the inclusion of this file in the program documentation). If you wish to use
these routines in a program that is for sale (for however much and for
whatever reasons) or released as copyright material then my express
permission in writing must be obtained. I maintain copyright on all the
material supplied and reserve the right to amend these conditions in cases
where I deem misuse. 

The library code is supplied free of charge to everyone 'as is'. There is no
guarantee that it is free from bugs and no warranty is given about its
suitability for use.
