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.

!AMFtable 1.10 (04-Jul-91)
===========================
A table generator
=================
One of the problems with !Draw is that it is hard to create tables with it.
!AMFtable solves this problem.Once loaded,click on the !AMFtable icon.Two
windows will appear,one showing the current table,one showing its contents.
Initially,they will be empty.
Press menu on either of the windows.There are options to save the table in
the usual wasy,either as a table or a draw file.Before a table may be saved,
its size must be defined.Move to Define and define both the columns and the
rows.The sizes for each of the columns/rows must be given in cm,as must the
type of the line (none/single or double thickness).The last column/row
shown is the first one that has a width/height of 0 cm,so it is advisable
to set this column as having either single/double thickness so it is visible.
Now that the size has been set,you can enter the contents of the table.Use
the "Edit" window.The current square is highlighted in red.Use the arrow
icons to move about,and click on the text icon to enter the text for that
square.You can alter the justification using the three icons at the bottom
of the window.If you press RETURN,the square will move as defined in the
"Move" option of the menu.(default is down)
The "Clear" option allows part or all of a table to be cleared.Be careful!
