Utilities/Clocks/!Daily/!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.

!Daily version 1.00, � 1990 Joe Abley ====== Here's a nice, unobtrusive, stylish desktop clock for you! And what it more it actually takes up no more than about 1k (although, of course, this is rounded up to the MEMC page size - 8k or 16k). For some reason it seems to run almost exactly three seconds late - don't ask me why - but since it doesn't display the seconds you won't notice!! The little bar underneath the time moves across every 15 seconds instead.. much nicer. Oh, it's named after the Channel 4 Daily breakfast TV program which has a clock like that. +------------------ joe@uucp.tharr ------------------+ Joe Abley, |Call Free Net One: The Archimedes BBS| 224 Castle Road, | 300/1200/2400/9600/19200 HST +44 452 330224 | Bedford, | 300/1200/1200-75/2400/9600 Trailblazer 330238 | MK40 3UA, +----------------------------------------------------+ England.
