!!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.

File contents
Because of the extra programs from last month�s Star Info which have had to
be repeated on this month�s disc, there was no room for the usual menu
structure on the disc. Instead, the disc contains a single archive, 
�Programs�, which has four directories inside it, one for each of the
C tutorial, Drop Caps, HomeWorks and Star Info. The files and programs
relating to each of these can be found within the directories and can
be de-archived by dragging them to another Filer window in the usual way.

ArcFS is the de-archiving program, which is usually hidden inside the !Menu
application.
