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
'egMacros' is a demonstration macros file for OverWrite. It is suggested
that you view the macro definitions, as well as processing the macros, to
gain an insight into how OverWrite works.
Macro 1: Indicates how blocks of text, with carriage returns, can be entered.
Macro 2: Indicates how basic words or phrases can be entered.
Macro 3: Indicates how key press simulation can be used to perform certain
functions. Process this in the window of an application which uses
F3 as its 'save' hotkey, eg. Edit or Draw. Also, ensure that a
RAM disc is present. This macro will save the file in the RAM disc.
(|387 is the code for F3. |021 is the code for Ctrl-U, which clears
the text in the box which "owns" the caret. |013 is the code for
Return.)
Macros 4 and 5: Indicates how "loops" in the links can occur. Click on macro
number 4.
Macros 6,7 and 8: Indicates how macro links can be inserted. Click on macro
number 6.
