!SmartCD/!Advert

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.

 What you have here, as version 1.13, is the
 FreeWare version of !SmartCD. This can be freely
 distributed and should not have cost you anything. 
 We very much hope that this program is useful to
 you in its own right, and may be all you'll ever
 need. But...

 ************************************************
 *               ADVERTISEMENT                  *
 ************************************************

 There is an *EVEN BETTER* version of SmartCD,
 with the following features (and more):
 
  * "Tape Inlay" facilities, which help you make
    cassette inlays if you're recording, and list
    the tracks for you, as well as suggesting the
    order of tracks if they don't fit on easily;

  * "Memory" functions which allow tracks to be
    played in any order, or randomly, or repeated,
    etc., and your favourite play list is *saved*
    with the CD info file;

  * Looped play of any audio section can be set up
    by clicking once to begin and once more to end,
    (as well as normal fast-forward & rewind);

  * Auto-play option - this automatically plays a
    disc when inserted, using your chosen track
    sequence if you like, and ejects the disc at
    the end, so you need never open the panel;

  * Any number of CDs can be catalogued, and this
    is done more efficiently, taking less space;

  * Database functions are provided for searching
    your CD info files for key words or phrases;

  * Can there be more? Yes! Check it out!
 
 This enhanced version comes in the form of two
 applications, !SmallCD and !SmartCD+. The former
 is a memory-saving simple version, and the latter
 is the bells-and-whistles 'all features' version.
 There is also a special utility to convert
 your old-style CD listings (i.e. those from the
 FreeWare versions) to the new format.
 
 The new applications are supplied together on
 one disc, which will be available around July '94
 from "The ARM Club". The price is not yet fixed
 but *will* be sensible.
 
 The ARM Club are present at all major Acorn
 shows, and enquiries can also be directed to the
