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.

I'm slightly surprised by the tales of woe. I had a RiscPC from July 1994 
'til last week (sold to a deserving Cambridge student) and there were no 
problems at all apart from that silly dust cover/door thingy bezel (for the 
spring) coming off (which can easily be fixed.) Otherwise, the machine was 
solid as a rock. 

The RiscPC also had a Cumana SCSI-2 card added which also worked 
perfectly with a 1GB Conner SCSI HDD. That SCSI card was put in around 
April/May this year, so probably had improvements over the earlier ones 
from 1994 with teething problems (mind you I hadn't attached any other 
devices to it...). It's a shame that Cumana have liquidated.

That's not a particularly widely held definition. A more common one includes
spreading without the users consent or knowledge, and unauthorised modification
of a user's data. 

That last phrase is a description of one class of offence under the Computer
Misuse Act, which has now been used a number of times to bring alleged virus
writers to trial (with, I'm pleased to note, a prison sentence being handed
out in one recent case).

To illustrate my point, using Paul's definition one wouldn't describe
Extend or Icon as viruses - which they surely are.

Cumana are not that small a company, and although it could be Acorn have
been late in paying there bills, that alone would not have been Cumana's
downfall, (if they have gone down). Don't forget they worked in the PC
market as well. They were service agents for a PC manufactor, as I
understand it.

Rubbish!!!! You can get your IDE drive from almost anywhere, ICS is
probably best bet for an A3020, prices are not much more then so called
PC dealer prices usually, 80Mb can be more then enough for a lot of
people. But because of the demand for larger drives for the PC market
effectively 420Mb has become the smallest size in ready availability.

Yes you can get a PC with CD ROM for around 650ukp + VAT (486DX2 66Mhz)
but it's already OLD before you buy it!

OK, I suppose I don't live in "real life", working in an academic environment :)

I have an A440/1 upgraded with 25MHz ARM3 + FPA10. Alongside it I now have a
RPC600 - no FPA :(

I've given numbers on this group in the past. This time I'll illustrate my
dilema with an example of what my Iranian student said to me when first he
tried one of the basic steps in our data processing procedure on the RPC...

"Simon, I think something is broken. It is _very_ slow."

Enough said.

It should be a Content-Length (along with Content-Type) or whatever
it is. IIRC, it's something to do with MIME, but I'm probably wrong.

Surely you can work it out? I don't know *any* Latin but I can

eventually.

AFAIK BT will not be introducing free local calls for a long time.
They said so in some interview I read. Videotron have it, they don't
mind people staying connected to the Direct Connection or whatever
for ages, they have enough lines. Cable modems will probably be here
before free BT calls, so 10Mbps will do nicely, thanks :-)

This is well off-topic... anyway...

IIRC BSB decoders are already D2-MAC Eurocrypt - they use right-hand
circular polarisation, which only BSB ever used, but the mod changes
them to use vertical or horizontal. There's a new satellite up at
31 degrees East or wherever BSB's was, it's called Thor or something
and broadcasts various non-English channels (mainly French AFAIR).

Surely it strips out the "X-..." headers as well? I thought they were
designed for less useful information (such as human-readable stuff) so
they shouldn't be included by trn?

Out of interest I tried the same earlier. The weird thing is that you
don't even have to drag Blu to Desktop Hacker - just running Blu while
dH is on the icon bar gives the same error. dH must do something strange
to zero page, which Blu doesn't like. Any ideas, Andrew "Megadiskasaurus"
Clover?

I thought about running it with old Hacker but Hacker doesn't run on
the Risc PC and Blu only runs on Risc PCs... bugger :-)

Note to anyone following my ramblings in the CAM Map Corrupt thread:
I said to Phillip Temple that you don't always get the error even if
your free and used memory don't add up - Blu can cause this, I managed
it earlier. After the boring intro screens it crashed out for some
reason (it probably gave Press SPACE or click mouse to continue, but
as the palette was all black, I couldn't see :-) ) and I noticed I
only had 1Mb free in the Task Manager, whereas I had over 3Mb before
running it. The numbers just didn't add up.

Yes, I have been using it in a RPC (And an A5K before that) with an IBM
disc for 18 months now, and never had a problem.  I don't see why it won't
work in an A540.

>If so, where can I get hold of a copy ?

I only have a modified copy, but I think it is widely available.

You should try to use the 'eliminate' utility supplied with the ShareWare
program fsck (available from Hensa). It will remove the file and then fsck
will give you back the lost space.

: I had this problem recently. *checkmap HUNG at the broken file, as

fsck should not hang when it encounters a broken file! If this error is
repeteable I'd like to have more informations about it so that I could try
to fix this bug.

You also (particularly on airline tickets and the like) see UKL as the

in Northern Ireland? Not that UKL is totally accurate as those in the

You could, by getting in touch with a data vendor like Reuters or
Bloomberg and getting loads of hardware and ISDN lines connected and
then paying lots (and lots) of money each month.

As to whether someone will put such information on the net, that seems
unlikely. Exchanges charge lots of money for real up-to-date prices
and they often prevent you passing that data onto people who aren't
paying for such real time data. For instance, I cannot use the data I
can see on the machine to my right on this computer legally.

I could tell you that at last trade (10:39am 6/12/95), Acorn shares
traded at 211, having reached a new all-time high but by the time it
reaches the news server you could probably see it in the paper.

Lots of shares being traded too (124897 today), which is a lot
considering that most days zero Acorn shares trade.

ChangeFSI can do this quite happily from the commandline. What you need to
do is detailed in the file FSIUse within the !ChangeFSI application. What
it boils down to is:

*changefsi <infile> <outfile> <p1-p6>

I can't remember off hand but I think p6 is true-colour binary and p3 will
give you true-colour ascii.

Hope this helps

Have you tried using 'nspark'? Either under UN*X, or on an Arc (make sure 
sparkplug or whatever hasn't been 'seen' otherwise it will complain that you're
trying to unspark a directory).

nspark is on hensa, and various other sites...

Odd, it's 'v' on this copy of strn ('t' shows a full tree for the current
thread), and I've not macroed it.  In fact the man page for trn agrees.
Maybe 't' is an rn-ism.

You can by default hide/show headers with a given prefix so:

trn -h +hfrom +hsubject

Should hide all headers except "From:" and "Subject:".  Pressing 'v' will
give you them all.

Not very Acorn relevant I know, though it would be nice to have something
with the power of strn for RISC OS.

It was 44p by day close.

You can get this information from ESI - Herman Heuser's (sp) electronic 
stock exchange quote service. Go to http://www.esi.co.uk/free.home.html

They have a free service which updates some share prices (inc. Acorn) 8 times
a day. There are also some chargable services that might interest you.

Hang on a second.... I hope Acorn succeeds with this venture....but 500
pounds!  Hidden costs like connection fees etc. (will it come with a built
in modem?)....you can buy a PC for around that now (admittedly not top spec)
and people are going to see that this NetSurfer is not really a computer.  I
know that people still pay 500 pounds for a word processor instead of
spending a little more and getting a *proper* computer, because all they
want to do is WP, but IMHO most peopl who want internet access would want a
*real* computer.

Is it possible - if you are going the 'digitiser' route - to record the

It would also never be allowed to be ported, because it belongs to big
Bill G. who wouldn't allow anything to touch the Acorn world with a
barge-pole.

No wonder the Acorn market is educational then, if no one seriously
considers making a new market for it...

The only way Acorn could get out of Education is buy ditching their OS
and getting a port of Windows NT. (but Bill won't allow that either,
because he's too busy trying to merge Intel into Microsoft ... :-)

I agree, look at the PC and Mac markets - EVERYTHING is CD-ROM!!!
It doesn't matter what's on the CDs at the moment, just so long as
they sell and become 'the norm', *then* we can fuss about quality.

The Acorn market has probably under 30 CDs in the Education sector and
about 10 for the rest of the Acorn market - not including CDs with
fonts or stuff on (data CDs).

On PCs, you get your operating system or latest application on CD!!
(and usually contains a huge amount more than the discs).

Take the Microsoft Developers Network which is a support network for
developers, where you get frequent updates on CD containing ALL the
latest windows operating systems, the SDKs, drivers and many other
libraries in packs of about 30 CDs. Each time a new update arrives,
the old CDs are waste! It works out a lot cheaper than buying upgrades
of Windows each time they come out - plus you get beta releases and
all sorts of stuff without having to download for hours off the
Internet (even with the fastest modems).

The Acorn world hasn't even shifted to distributing high density
floppy discs yet!!!!!!!

The stuff is cheap enough now to force people to change, else Acorn
just won't survive outside the Microsoft & PC world.

I have the same teletext adaptor connected to the I/O port of BBC Master.
I remember seeing the same teletext adaptor advertised for use with a
PC, so there must be some software out there somewhere. Probably about five years
ago, I had a look at the software (ROM image for BBC), and managed to reverse
engineer it as far as getting the adaptor to tune to a particular channel.
I can dig up that program for you if you wish. If I remember correctly, it
inolved sending a few bytes setup information (one bit at a time), then a one 
byte control code followed by two bytes containing an encoding of the frequency 
to tune the receiver to.

If you manage to track down some software, I would also be interested.

Martin.

I think the important distinction is that the cards occupying the four
extra slots on the Simtec board have to be primary processor cards.
There is also one slot for a secondary processor card, and one slot
for the *real* primary processor card - the one RISC OS actually boots
up on.

You're right - it is 'v' for 'verbose'. 't' for 'toggle' is the key to
do the same thing in Emacs RMAIL mode. 8-)

I'll say what I said again. It strips out those headers that it
*knows* to be not useful to the reader. Those are things like path,
references, etc., which are only there really there for the
information of the news transport (the path) and the newsreader (the
references) and not the user. If someone has added non-standard "X-"
headers to the message they obviously weren't intended for the
software to interpret, so they must form part of the message and so
are displayed.

That seems like a perfectly good strategy to me.

Mike.

[snip]

The term RISC PC has been in common use inside the industry for quite
some time to describe *any* RISC-based personal computer. Try reading
any copy of Byte, etc., and the phrase is used extensively, describing
everything from PowerMacs to DEC Alphas. Thus Apple probably have as
much right to call the PowerMac a "RISC PC" as they have in calling a
normal Mac a "PC", which it most certainly is.

What Acorn sell is the "Risc PC" - I suspect that as far as trademark law goes
the capitalisation is all important.

Not speaking on behalf of my company,

Mike.

Er... human-readable header fields are exactly the ones you should be
leaving in when presenting an article to a human to read! The ones
that should be hidden are all the message-IDs, references, etc. that
don't normally mean anything to a human.

If a field is human-readable, and isn't machine-readable (e.g. the
field name starts with "X-" so it's not a standard header), and nobody
wants to read it, then the obvious thing to do is to stop inserting it
in the header.

Posting something nobody wants to read, then blaming everyone else's
software for not filtering it out is a trifle stupid.

When I first bought it, it came with software and cable to connect it
to the Arc parallel port.  The cable has only four wires - but I'm not
sure how it is wired as the wires have broken off the parallel port
end.  When I upgraded to an Arm 3, there was a problem with not being
able to use the decoder while the cache was enabled.  I then had to
buy an upgrade consisting of new software and a cable to connect to
the podule backplane.

That's very encouraging :-)  I wonder if it was Ground Control who
supplied it.  There's nothing on the box (or inside) to suggest that
it was made by them, did they perhaps just write the software for the
Arc?

Yes, I'd be interested in seeing that program, thanks.

The brand, makes no difference these days. Big brands like Compaq are
a rip off as they over charge and don't even give you a monitor.

I don't need 17" monitors and only require 1MB of VRAM, so the price
comes down a lot.

Your pricing is based on something over and above the average offer
with PCs.

Take an Escom P75 PCI mini tower as an example ...

   Intel 75Mhz Pentium
   850Mb hard disc
   8Mb RAM
   1MB VRAM (PCI svga graphics)
   14" SVGA Monitor
   Windows 95 or OS/2, CorelDraw 4, MS Works etc.
   Plus it's Microsoft compatible ... :-)

   1056.33 (inc. VAT)

   + Multi-media kit ...
   Quad speed CD ROM
   16 bit soundcard
   Speakers

   extra 175.08 (inc. VAT)

   Total: 1231.41 (inc. VAT) and you can pick it up in the high street

                                       (maybe at a discount as well).


   Add another 100 to bring the hard disc over 1GB.
   Most Acorn dealers haven't caught on to the cheap costs of hard  
   discs either.
   Oh, and you could also add 150 +vat for complete internet kit with
   28,800 modem + software (obviously the internet subscription is
   extra). The Acorn mags are advertising the same packs that have
   been modified for Acorn for well over 200 +vat.

   Don't forget that all this includes on-site warranty and support
   before they try to sell you extra cover.

Sure, if you buy from Compaq, then add 1,000 to the cost.

>The other side of the coin is software costs.

VC 4 is not necessary at the moment and will obviously come down in
price. Most people, except games developers, develop with high level
languages and you could pick up a free command line assembler
somewhere if you wanted which can be put into the very configurable
VC++ system.
PS. if you were quoted 359 + VAT then it was probably the subscription
pack (on CD btw) which means each new release you'll get in the post
at no extra cost ! Without subscription VC++ 4 is 175 +VAT !

Face it, the Microsoft development stuff is vastly superior, hence the
price. You don't just get software but support as well. Something like
the Developers Network, gives you all the operating systems and SDKs
on updates saving loads of money on upgrades. Including NT and 95 !
Visual C++ is also available on subscription - more savings.

Yeah, but no one can do something like Office on Acorn, despite what
people think of Microsoft. Most Acorn WPs feel like educational
software (probably are that's why).

Almost everything doesn't include VAT, but it's easy to add.
Unless you're going to do DTP, you don't need a 17" monitor. Admitidly
Acorn is cheaper for DTP, due to costs of PC and Mac DTP packages.

All legal software included, and I think people are over quoting you
:-)

Top of the range 486s (which are entry level PCs now) are well under
1,000.

A RiscPC is not on my list. I still like it, but I can't justify the
costs or see much benefit for the cost.

We're looking to see the interest in a new artworks tool; a sprite/draw tracer.
We've got basic code and would like to see the amount of interest before
continuing.........
Such a tool would allow the conversion of sprites into vector files within
Artworks. As this is a RFC please send any comments or notification of interest
to Neural@cjc2.demon.co.uk

For those of your who requested iFS & didn't recieve it, apologies- a mail
problem resulted in the apparent loss of a days mail. Most other requests
have been filled with iFS1.    Hopefully the full iFS2 image filing system
will be here around the 14th December and all those who requested iFS and
have recieved iFS1 will recieve a copy automatically.
If you want to add your name to the mailing list mail 'INS@cjc2.demon.co.uk'

Rubbish. No-body cares that much about 5p here and there. They'd
probably spend that much in electricity to keep the computer on
and connected when not doing anything. And saving 5p at the expense
of tying up their phone line all evening so they can't receive any
incoming calls? I don't think so.

At 2 lines long (my entire post), it must have been one of my shortest
pontifications ever. And the information wasn't false. It was 100%
true, just outdated. Completely unnecessary set of flames IMHO.

Thankfully, it would seem we have a result. It would've been nice if you'd
shown this sort of reasonable attitude to start with, avoiding the slanging

Similarly, I've had mine for 18 months, used for 6 hours a day. I was just going
to extol its virtues in this thread yesterday when - crash - and when I reset,
the CMOS appears to be erratic - it forgets the screen font, the monitor-type
and screen resolution etc. When running configure to get things back to normal I
keep getting "Bad Rename" errors.

Anyone seen this one before? And I thought the rechargable battery should last
for years... I _suppose_ this is what it is. Any comments anyone?

Cheers,

I think the poster apathy is indicitive of peoples belief in anything
high(er)-performance and Acorn.
  Also the ARM810 in time-honoured tradition is not really a performance
orientated product, i mean 80 MIPS, that would be downright offensive a year
ago, hehe.  With the StrongARM NOT being developed by ARM and a damn sight
faster people just dont care for announcements about slower processors.
Besides it'll probably take Acorn a year to get the ARM810 on a card for a RPC
anyway.  Look how long it took for the ARM710!
  I just hope that when DEC do ship SA's either ART or a third party will
quickly stuff one (cacheless, i dont care) on a card for the RPC, at least then
we'll be able to play games like PC owners (cos lets face it with no FP
prospects theres nothing else to do with the processing power!)

Hi, apologies for posting here but everywhere else seems even less 
appropriate (save c.s.a.apps).

Anyway, the subject says it all really. If anyone has a copy of Artworks
that they're not really using / selling off as part of a larger bundle and
they fancy getting rid of it easily then can you let me know ? Email me
with a price and then we'll haggle ;-) 

(FYI I'm willing to pay up to about 50% of the cheapest retail price I've 
found)

Cheers,

Max

On a machine with no VRAM the VIDC accesses screen memory via the main
bus, halting the processor.  Mode 0 requires less screen memory than
most modes, so the processor is halted less often and ChangeFSI runs
faster.

If you wish to defeat memory protection then don't use malloc. C is not
able to subvert the restrictions placed upon it by the OS. In fact, no
user program is. The example above is illegal under ANSI/ISO C, but that
doesn't guarantee it won't work on all systems. 

In fact, the bit quoted above is more a piece of luck with the way free
is implemented in whatever library you happen to be using than anything.
I can think of several ways it could fail even under Acorn C:
1) A clever malloc() library which messes with Wimpslots to grab and
   free memory. After free() there is no guarantee that the address of p
   is even mapped into the memory space of your process. This is the way
   that Unix systems tend to do it, though the blocks are often mapped
   in/out in page sized chunks, so it could still work on Unix.
   (In fact it does with DEC cc on OSF using the standard libraries -
   just checked)
2) The malloc() library using a linked list with a terminating object to
   manage its memory chunks. While *p=4 would probably work, the chances
   are that it would corrupt the arena for subsequent mallocs to die on.

Cheers,
Alun.

It's portable if you use standard libraries that exist across platforms.
I should imagine most programs written on the Arc would require almost
a complete re-write. For instance, I'm currently porting one of my own
programs (uses the toolbox) from RISC OS to Windows (boo hissss I know,
but there's a market there). Whilst a large amount of the code compiles
with Borland C/C++ without much change, the front end is having to be
re-written virtually from scratch.

But portability stops being an issue when you start doing stupid things
like bashing bytes into memory that has nothing to do with your
program whatsoever.

So what would be done instead? I think this:

	STMFD	R13!,{R0,R10-R12,R14}

	ADR	R14,return
	STMFD	R13!,{R14}	; Spot the difference

The start address appears to be &16C, with &200 bytes per 128 pages, giving a
total allocation of &800 bytes for a 16MB machine (4 MEMCs, each handling 128
pages of 32K each).

Of course it's completely different for the MMU as found in ARM6 and later.

In process() you need another bit of code to OS_AddCallBack a
callback to *another* routine which does the printf. You can't
call most things from IRQ mode (which you'll be in during
process() ), as all sorts of re-entrancy problems occur.
OS_Write0 probably isn't allowed, and anything else C does
on the way might not be. Callbacks call the routine when the
processor's next idling, and it's entered in USR mode so you
can call anything.

If you want to check if a SWI can be called from a CallAfter
or whatever, see the Re-entrancy section under that particular
SWI in the PRM - that's what that section means. Non-re-entrant
means you can't call it from a CallAfter, as it might be in the
middle of being called already - say if you're doing a long
OS_Write0 of 1000 characters or something, and the CallAfter
times out: the next OS_Write0 is done perfectly, then back to
what we were doing before: oops, Risc OS forgets what we were
doing before and gets confused. That's why the address exception
occurs *after* the "Processing..." bit is printed.

Sorry if I've explained the obvious or gone on for far too long;
I'm just trying to be useful around here :-)

I think RISC OS needs updating to bring it into line, there are still a few
annoying things in there (such as the save-box idea, and the box goes away
when you click anywhere else - so you have to go round opening windows to
find the right dir - whereas a (less user friendly tho) file listing is much
more flexible for more advanced users)

also another thing I'd like to see would be allowing the icon bar to be
changed, and to be moved about (it wouldn't be that hard I reckon since the
iconbar is a window anyway) and resized...

Ok not exclusively, but it still was one of the very first (before the Mac

time though until everyone else caught on to the idea.

EIDE drives are much faster when used with an EIDE interface but will
function as an IDE drive when connected to an IDE port. 

Most IDE hard drives now avaliable are actually EIDE anyway.

Now that is something that CC could convert back to RISC OS, as it is
mostly processing code not UI based. None of the existing tracers seem that
good (AFAIK).

How's about;

1  Slider bars being firing auto-guns?
2  Slider bar arrows being small figures of Marines and exploding aliens? At
   the correct ends for the firing auto-guns of course.
3  Save Boxes having little (SAV[E]iour) drop-ships in them? Possibe?
4  What would look good instead of the Task-Manager? Ideas? Bishop? Queen?
5  Boot file/directory as the Narcisus
6  System as the Sulaco!
7  Scrap as Nostromo?
8  Apps (resource icon) as an APC (Close enough speeling)!
9  Godda have a alien-saliva-filled-tunnel-background for the iconbar. Has to
   be done...
10 Hard / floppy-disc icons?
11 Fonts?
12 Printers as Signal locators? Hmmm any better suggestions?
13 OPT and RADIO icons as (differing?) Chestburster's in and out of course...

I would prefer the black-moody desktop feel to be thorough! It'll be bad enough
having to put up with namby-pamby icons from suppliers with
'scripted-paper-'n'-quill-pens' as logos clogging up the desktop ;-)

PS anybody interested - I recomment ALL of the novels as reading material!
   especially Steve Perry's 'Aliens' series. Brilliant!

The difference is that GBP is the ISO 3-letter code for the UK
currency, whereas ukp isn't.

I get my listings from http://www.yearling.com/ - but there are a few
snags!  You can turn off image loading, but more importantly the two
RISC OS browsers I've tried don't support the request form!  These are
ArcWeb and Fresco.  I understand the Voyager browser is basically
ArcWeb renamed, but it might be worth trying to see if there's a
difference.

My solutions are to use NetScape or Mosaic on a PC, or more usually to
telnet to one of my unix accounts and use lynx.

Sorry if that isn't very helpful.  I'm hoping that (with a little
encouragement) ANT will add the necessary support to Fresco, and you
could try asking Argo to do the same.  Until the RISC OS browsers
catch up, if enough people email the Yearling people they might be
persuaded to offer an alternative forms interface.  They've seemed
quite friendly in the past.

Given the problems that I have witnessed here in upgrading a MAN from
SunOS to Solaris they would be wise to upgrade initially to a version
which, although not stable has at least a list of known problems and
workarounds.

As an alternative you could use Win95. As this replaces Dos, it loads
automaticaly. 

All you need is a 14MB RPC and it works fine ;-)

Hmmm, the Irlam 24i16 seems to grab 768 * 576 in one frame (two fields).
It has a 1MB buffer so at 16bpp there's room for it.
