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.

CONTENTS Stave markings System markings Differences in behaviour Double system markings See manual for: hand pointer; position of lower system markings See also Attachment STAVE MARKINGS Stave markings are those which are only rele- vant to a particular instrument, and are drawn on or near one of its staves - for instance, notes, chords, rests, clef changes, transfers and most types of line and text. SYSTEM MARKINGS System markings are those which apply to all of the instruments, such as tempo text, title text, rehearsal marks, key changes, time signatures and some lines. Many of these (such as rehearsal marks) are drawn at the top of the system, and sometimes duplicated lower down as well. DIFFERENCES IN BEHAVIOUR The difference between stave and system mark- ings is made clear on the Text and Lines menus - above the dotted line are stave markings, below it system markings. The main reason you should not confuse the two is that stave and system markings are extract- ed into parts differently. When you extract a part, it contains the stave markings for only the instrument extracted, but all of the syst- em markings. This is how titles, tempo marks, rehearsal marks and so on appear in all ex- tracted parts. If you use a stave marking instead of a system marking (or vice versa), the marking will be extracted incorrectly. DOUBLE SYSTEM MARKINGS If you switch the House style�General�Single system markings option off, some system mark- ings will appear not only at the top of systems but also at a suitable place in the middle. Tempo text and rehearsal marks can appear duplicated on a system. The two markings mimic each other; for instance, if you edit one piece of tempo text, a caret will appear in the other and both will change simultaneously. To drag or delete both markings, do the operation to the upper one. If in unusual circumstances you want two particular marks to be different distances from their respective staves, or if you want to remove just the lower mark, drag or delete the lower mark rather than the upper. $
