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.

SCISSORS TOOL ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This tool is for cutting out a rectangular part of the screen so that you can move it to another part of the picture. Move the pointer to the place where you want to place the bottom left corner of the rectangle then click (press and release) the left mouse button. Now move the mouse and you will see a rectangle appear. When the rectangle is the right size and in the right position, click the left mouse button again. Now, when you move the mouse, the whole rectangle will move. Now, move the rectangle to where you want to put the piece of screen and click the left mouse button. Click the right button to abandon your current action. Use the DELETE key to put the screen back to how it was before you started using the scissors. (This must be done BEFORE you return to the Menu screen.) Press the middle mouse button to return to the Menu screen.
