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.

Important note ScoreDraw ReadMe Versions of Rhapsody II below 1.23 do not communicate directly with ScoreDraw. To check which version you have load Rhapsody and press Menu on the mouse whilst the pointer is over the Rhapsody icon on the icon bar. Move the pointer over the Info item to open the info box. The bottom line gives the version number of the program. If you have a version below 1.23 you can solve the problem by using !SysMerge supplied on the ScoreDraw disc. !SysMerge is not specific to !System and it can be used to update any two application directories. Updating Rhapsody II Double click on !SysMerge and drag your working copy of !Rhapsody into the window. Next open the Update directory viewer and drag the !Rhap_Up application into the SysMerge window. SysMerge then updates the original application with the files from !Rhap_Up. The new version will now communicate correctly with ScoreDraw. If you have any problems with this process simply return your original Rhapsody II disc to us requesting that it be updated to the version compatible with ScoreDraw. The files in the Demo directory show the effect of taking a Rhapsody 2 file into ScoreDraw and enhancing it.
