!Scrap/!Help
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
!Scrap ====== The !Scrap application is a tempoary storage area used by applications to store documents and other information while it is being transferred to another application. Some applications also use !Scrap to store other temporary information (information which is not being transferred to another application). These applications may need !Scrap to have been seen before they are run. Error messages ============== If an error message of the form "Can't transfer file (use *Set Wimp$Scrap <filename>)" is given by an application this means that the !Scrap application has not yet been seen by the system. You should open a directory display containing !Scrap then try the operation again. If the message "Protected Disc" is given when trying to transfer information between applications. The !Scrap application is probably on a floppy disc which is write protected. Applications must be able to write to the !Scrap application. Copy !Scrap to a writable location, then double click the new !Scrap to cause the copy to be used. !Scrap cannot be used on a write protected floppy disc or in a read-only location on a network.
