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.

MAGAZINE INDEX ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ By Richard Dimond I wrote this program to list the programs from EU and MU magazines as I had transferred each year's programs to a single DS disc. I had done this by putting each month's programs in a separate directory and added a menu to select these and CHAIN the header. The program can quite simply be modified for other listings since it will hold 12 data strings with a maximum length of 18 characters for each month. The listing can be either to screen and scrolled or sent to the printer, when it prints out with the printer graphics in a similar way to my earlier programs. When run, you have the following options - 1. List programs (to screen) 2. Print listing (to printer) 3. Enter data 4. Add/amend entry 5. Load data 6. Save data 7. Quit program I have added my data files on the disc with the program ('INDEX') in a separate directory. On selecting option 5, these will be *CATed so that you will see the names of the files to load. As you will see, there are gaps in the earlier listings and, if anyone can supply these, it would be nice to have the listings completed. On selecting option 3, you are first asked if you wish to add a title. Then you need to select a month by number. The data for that month can then be entered in turn and press RETURN only to finish. You can then select another month or return to the menu to SAVE the file. Option 4 allows you to add or amend a single entry. To do this, you need to enter the month and item number of the entry. The current entry, if it already exists, will then be printed to show whether it needs amending. **************************************************************************
