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.

Yet another save protection program In EUG 20, Ross Little presented a new version of his save protection program, which intercepted most filing system operations, and checked, using an OSFIND call, to see if a file existed before overwriting it. I wrote a similar program several months ago, when Gus Donnachaidh suggested the idea, but didn't get around to sending it in until now. The program works in a similar manner to Ross Little's version, except that it uses a slightly different method to test for the existence of a file. It calls the OSFILE routine with the accumulator set to 5 - the file type is returned in the accumulator (see page 97 of the Advanced User Guide, or page 84 of the Acorn Plus 3 User Guide if you're interested). An advantage of this approach is that the program can tell whether the file in question is locked, or if it is a directory. In these cases, the ADFS will not allow another file to be saved with the same name - it returns with a "Locked" or "Already exists" error message. Hence it would only waste time in these cases for the Save Protection program to ask whether or not to overwrite the file. Another feature of my program is that it intercepts the OSFIND vector, as well as the OSFILE vector. This means that it can protect againt OPENOUT commands overwriting existing files, as well as SAVE and *SAVE. I thought that this would make it impossible to unwittingly overwrite a file, but I was wrong - it would seem that the ADFS commands *COPY and *RENAME do not use OSFILE or OSFIND, so they will still overwrite existing files. After reading Ross Little's program, I copied his idea of including a facility to disable the program, and incorporated this into my program by intercepting the OSCLI vector, and testng all star commands. When the command *DISABLE is entered, the vectors are all reset to their original values, so files can be overwritten as usual. It is advisable to do this before executing any machine code program, unless you are sure it will not corrupt the Save Protection program. Remember also, that page &B will be corrupted by any *KEY commands, and that page &C will be corrupted by any VDU 23 (character definition) commands. This area of memory is also likely to be used by any ADT commands you use, and page 9 is used by the E00 ADFS. To avoid all these pitfalls, it is probably better to reduce the value of HIMEM to (say) &5C00 and store the code between HIMEM and screen memory. This will keep the code safe until the Mode is next changed, which is not often if you are typing in listings, etc. To store the code here, you must remember to change HIMEM before assembling the source code AND before running the code each time you use it. Even better would be to store the code permanently in battery-backed RAM, as a service ROM. This would be set up automatically every time you switch the machine on, and would be almost immune to corruption by other programs. It would need to utilise the extended vector system (see Advanced User Guide, pages 171 and 189). I have to admit that despite writing the program, I have no intention of using it on a regular basis. I have already got into the habit of locking all programs that are of any value when I am not working on them, and in any case, if I was in a sufficiently absent-minded mood to overwrite a file by mistake, I would probably have forgotten to load the protection program as well! However, if the program could be made to work permanently in sideways RAM, it would be far more useful. I will investigate this possibility further... Note that when the program asks whether a file should be overwritten, you must answer with the word "YES" (upper or lower case) in full - any other key will give the error message "Aborted". This is the standard procedure used by the ADFS when asking for confirmation for the *DESTROY command. Remember that the "Aborted" error may cause a BASIC program to stop if it has inadequate error trapping. However, it is always unwise to use the protection program from inside another program, in case of corrupting the code, so this should not be a major problem. As with Ross Little's program I have included a check to make sure that the setup routine is not executed twice, though you will still run into trouble if you run a second copy which was asembled at a different address. If the code becomes corrupted for any reason, press CTRL-BREAK, save your work if it is still intact, then re-install the protection program. Ross Little mentioned in EUG20 that this feature did not work properly in his DFS version of the program. The problem was that the contents of the OSFILE vector were copied into the "return" vector (used to carry out the OSFILE call at the end of the routine), before the check was made to find out if the program had already been installed. This means that after the program is run the second time, both the real vector and the return vector point to the start of the Protection program. This explains why it enters an endless loop when run. The solution of course, is to swap around the first few lines of the code, so the check is made before any changes are made: 160.init LDAfilev+1 170 CMP#newv DIV 256 180 BEQend 190 STAretv+1 200 LDAfilev 210 STAretv etc.... However, this is not the end of the story, because if the SAFE program has been run a second time using *SAFE (as opposed to CALL&900), the return vectors will have been overwritten with zeros, and the original contents of the vectors lost. They cannot be restored using the default vector table in the OS ROM, since this will point to the tape filing system. The solution here is to put the return vectors at the end of the program, and not to include them in the saved file. This means that they will not be overwritten when the SAFE program is re-loaded. This is how I avoided the problem in my program. My program is designed to work on both ADFS and DFS, since it only uses "legal" operating system calls, which are common to both. However, I do not have a DFS ROM to test this, so I would be interested to hear if it is not compatible, or if there are any bugs. Matthew Ford
