!AWJan95/Goodies/Event/Examples/!DataLoad/!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.

Help for DataLoad
------------------------------------------------------------------

This application is is a demonstration designed to show you how an
EvntShell program can be set up to load datafiles. This
application responds to load events for files of type &200 (when
the file is dragged to the icon bar icon) and template files (when
a template file is dropped on the 'load target' icon in the window
opened when SELECT is clicked on the icon bar icon).

This application supports interactive help via Acorn's Help
application.

How To Use
------------------------------------------------------------------

Click SELECT on the icon bar icon to obtain the main window and
drag a template file to the 'load target' icon. Alternatively drag
a file of type &200 (one is supplied with the application) to the
icon bar icon, or double click SELECT on the datafile icon in a
directory display.
