ROMINFO
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.

File contents
MYROM By J R Crellin Purpose A screen dump ROM image for the MASTER 128 and EPSON FX80 compatibles. MYROM offers correct aspect ratio, intelligent colour - shade translation and easy-to-use syntax. An instant dump feature is provided that has proved usable with a wide range of software. *IMAGE followed by optional parameters as below prints the current screen. HORIZONTAL gives "right way up" printing but of lower quality. NOBLUE ignores blue and treats it as black (useful for the large number of screens that use blue as the background eg weather maps on Teletext). INVERT causes colours to print in their true shades (ie with dark screen printing up solid black). TEXT prints text only. *TEXT can be used as a direct command for text. *PREPARE takes the same optional parameters as *IMAGE and sets up MYROM to print when <SHIFT LOCK> and <CAPS LOCK> are pressed together. This combination is chosen as it is unlikely to be used in software that is having its snapshot taken. The only side effect is that a SHIFT LOCK or CAPS LOCK state may be entered but this can easily be rectified. *DEFAULT will reset the ROM
