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 on Proxies and how to use them =================================== The best guide to proxies may be found at: http://www-cache.demon.co.uk:8080/ However, here is a message taken from demon.ip.support.archimedes ... In message <19950605.222342.63@sitex.demon.co.uk> Neil Tarrant wrote: A proxy machine is an HTTP server that 'passes on' requests to other sites. It requests the document on your behalf. At first this may seem a little pointless, but after using one for a while you'll really appreciate the benefits. Most internet WWW users browse pages in the United States. Going over to the States each time you want to read a HTTP doc is sluggish (to say the least). A proxy HOLDS recent copies of *popular* documents and hence can often give a **MUCH** faster response. A good example of this is 'http://www.playboy.com/' which is a *very* popular home page. Accessing this without the proxy is very slow, but with the proxy, response is *very* fast. HTTP proxy is also very useful when browsing European sites. Not many people realise that requests to Europe USUALLY go via the US, which adds a hell of an overhead to the request time (it's often faster accessing Australia). The other important use of proxy machines (well some anyway) is that they provide non-HTTP resource conversion. For example, gopher requests return gibberish if fetched directly, but a proxy will translate the gibberish into a nicely laid out HTTP document. The same is true of FTP (etc), which is tricky to provide via a local client fetcher. Therefore an application such as WebGopher, can provide HTTP, gopher, ftp and others, without much programming. [ArcWeb will handle HTTP and FTP and gopher requests itself, and use the resource conversion utilities for gopher and WAIS. Ed.] Note, however, WebGopher can do (and only does) direct gopher fetching, 'coz it's nicer', but the others can be done via a different proxy. FTP, for example, is ONLY handled via the proxy (it took me all of 15 minutes to add FTP support this way). Direct fetching is usually more efficient for non-HTTP protocols, as it's mainly for HTTP (that's where most benefits will be gained). [If you want to use proxies, and you are a Demon customer, then use, www-cache.demon.co.uk on port 8080 as your HTTP proxy and also for FTP, gopher and WAIS. If you in the UK academic community then use wwwcache.hensa.ac.uk on port 8080 except WAIS which is on port 80 on wwwcache.hensa.ac.uk Ed.]. NOTE: It is considered 'rude' to use an external proxy UNLESS you have no viable alternative (ie use demon instead of hensa for HTTP), as it places undesirable strain on the overloaded general proxy machines. I hope this clears up the confusion many new users seem to have regarding proxy machine usage. :-) [For more details on how ArcWeb handles proxies, load ArcWeb and click on the icon bar icon to open the welcome page. Then follow the link to the User Manual and then follow the 'Proxy' link.
