P/+MOUSE1
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.

SUBJECT - MOUSEY It's in its 3rd incarnation on this month's disk.The reason why is 1.BASIC VERSION 2.M/C VERSION (background operation) 3.THIS MONTH's as all the development work was done for it on a BBC B.It worked fine.But on a Master the default value for the Serial Port mask is different,so the machine locks up after a while when no one services the interrupts. I've added an osbyte call to correct this and have removed a memory wasting (well,one byte) memory flag. I've been concentrating on other software,of which you'll see more soon, which is why the mouse project has slowed a little.See you in the New Year Robert Sprowson.
