DesktopPD/PinPatch/!BdrpSlide/!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.

!SlideShow version 1.00 � Matthew Bullock 30th June 1997


!Slideshow is a very simple backdrop slideshow. It will cycle through the
slideshow images supplied with your computer.

Before using it, you need to set the path to point to the JPEG images by
editing the first line of the !Run file. It should contain the full path of the
directory containing the two directories containing the images.

!Slideshow is freeware but it may only be distributed along with pinboard rom
patch. It is useless without it anyway.
