USEFUL/!Grab/!Help/ReadMe

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.

  � !Help for !Grab Version 1.10 �
  �     by Dave Thomas � 1991    �

Grab is a utility for ripping the system
sprites from memory.
When you load !Grab an icon will be 
installed on the icon bar.Clicking upon
this icon will open up the grab window
this is where you enter the filename etc.
Firstly select whether you want Rom or
Ram sprites by using the radio butons to
the left of the window.Then after that
enter the filename of where you want the
sprites to be saved to and press return 
or click on the OK icon.If the save did
not go successfully then nothing will 
happen so you will have to find the 
problem yourself.

  � Copyright �

Two other applications are used in this
utility they are !ReadMe (!Help) & 
!Interface.
Other than them,this application remains
copyright of Dave Thomas 1991.Permission
is given to distribute this appliction

together and intact.
The !ReadMe application is � J.Loring

My greatest thanks go to these people for
putting their very useful programs in the
Public Domain.
