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
====== !ArcFS ====== The programs on this disc are held in archives. !ArcFS must be used to extract the various files and applications. It behaves just like a filing system, you can take files out just by dragging as usual. !ArcFS contains copious help information in it's !Help file. You may be required to increase the memory allocation in the RMA using the Task Manager. ---- WARNING ---- If you have an IDE hard disc supplied by Ian Copestake with software version 1.13 then !ArcFS version 2 may not work. You should get version 1.14 (or higher) to unpack the files. --------------------------------------------- ^^^^^ Did this scroll by too fast? ^^^^^ Try again, but hold down the Control key. Pressing Shift as well will stop the scrolling until you release the keys.
