Freeware/Shareware/!FileKill/!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.

Introduction
------------
The purpose of filekill is to provide a quick
efficient way of deleting files. When loaded
Filekill installs it's self on the icon bar 
and waits for something to be dropped there.
When it is it is destroyed, no backup is kept.
This is because FileKill was designed to be
FAST. 

There may be a few problems with deleteing
compex file & directory structures, it is
best to stick to destroying small groups of
files.

We have a large range of our own software and
other public domain.

This program is shareware, it is distributed as part of the Wimp
Utils suite, volume 1.

You may distribute this unregistered copy of the program and
you may keep it and use it for 28days. If you find it usefull
then you must send a five pound (�5) registration fee to
Peter Cathcart, Software7. 

If after 28 days you decide not to keep the program, you must
delete it from your hard disc/floppy disc. You may of course keep 
the original copy that you were supplied, so that you may change 
your mind later, but you MUST not use this copy for more than 2 
days, then if you feel that you want to use it you must register.

You may not distribute your registered copy, as this is excluive to
you, if you do distribute it you are letting the recipitants
steal from me and YOU!!!
