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.

PsionFS 0.10 ============ This software is (c) IMS Ltd., 1997. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introduction ~~~~~~~~~~~~ This first release of PsionFS supports conversion of Psion Series 5 MBM files to Sprites. It does this by becoming an Image Filing System. Psion MBM files then become like directories - you can double-click on them to open them up and view a spritefile inside. Developments ~~~~~~~~~~~~ This release only supports reading from MBM files. We intend to add the following features: * Reading of ROM images. * Ability to write to MBMs. * Dragging the MBM to Paint (rather than the Sprite inside). * Palette matching (optional greenscale palette instead of greyscale). These features will only be available to registered users. If there is sufficient interest, we may add support for other Psion Series 5 file formats. Shareware ~~~~~~~~~ Registering costs only �15+vat. As well as a clear conscience, you will get the developed version of the module when it becomes available. To register, please send a cheque for �15+vat (�17.62) payable to "Innovative Media Solutions Ltd" to IMS Ltd., Box Bush Farm, West Wick, Weston-super-Mare.
