!AWMay94/Goodies/Scr_Paint/!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.

Information on !Scr�Paint ======================================= I wrote this application so that RISC OS 3 users would be able to load up sprite files as they did in RISC OS 2. It is for this reason that this application are no use in RISC OS 2 and so I have included a line in the !Run file so that they do not work under RISC OS 2. !Scr�Paint ========== This application converts the Alias$@RunType_FF9 variable according to what the user requires. There are some restrictions on this, however, as if you change the Run Type while !Paint is running, the change will not have any affect. If you quit !Paint and try again, this time it will work. I have tried to make the application as small as possible with a 'no frills' attitude that would eat memory.
