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.

FreeMem 1.09 !Help file � Liquid Silicon 1992-1996 ********** FreeMem is freeware. Please distribute as you like but we retain the copyright. All files must be kept together and unaltered (apart from the !Run file). We accept no responsibility whatsoever for any lost files, data or income which may occur through the use or misuse of this software. The use of this software is entirely up to yourself. ********** FreeMem is a module application which displays the amount of free application memory on the icon bar. This is the combined total of the Next and Free slots. It has been written as a module so that it uses a minimum amount of memory (about 3K in total) and runs quickly, so as not to interfere with the machine's use. There are two options available, selected by toggling 'Quick' or 'Font' on the icon bar menu. With Quick ticked, FreeMem detects changes in the following : Applications starting and quitting; Mode changes; WimpSlot changes (e.g. when loading documents into DTP packages etc). Increases to the font cache and other system memory allocation entries (including dynamic areas) will not register (except for RAM disc creation or removal and the screen memory on mode changes). To update the display to take changes of any of these into account, click Select on the FreeMem icon on the icon bar. Alternatively, deselect the Quick menu option. This will constantly update the amount of free memory displayed, no matter what changes occur (useful when printing and when using large numbers of fonts). Because this uses the null reason code in the Wimp polling loop, it uses a little more processor time than with the Quick option on, although it will very rarely be noticed. However, the option is there if you really need to get as much speed as possible while still having a memory display. Clicking on 'Font' will toggle the use of the Homerton.Medium font for the display, rather than the system font. This is best used with hi-res modes on SVGA or multisync monitors as normal monitors lack enough definition. If you are using RISC OS 3 or above, the icon will always be next to the palette or monitor icon, otherwise it will reappear to the left of the other application icons. FreeMem will also save its pathname into the desktop boot file in RISC OS 3. By default, the Font and Quick options are off. Placing an 'F' or a 'Q' at the end of the !Run file in any order will toggle the relevant option. You can also include a 'C' or a 'K' here as well. Some examples are : RMEnsure FreeMem 1.09 RMRun <FreeMem$Dir>.!RunImage FC RMEnsure FreeMem 1.09 RMRun <FreeMem$Dir>.!RunImage qfk RMEnsure FreeMem 1.09 RMRun <FreeMem$Dir>.!RunImage f Q The 'C' option causes the icon text to turn red when the free memory is below 512K. If you don't like this, leave out the option if you want black text regardless (Acorn's flashing icon is *really* naff!). The 'K' option (put in by request) forces the display to remain in kilobytes. By default, the display switches to megabytes at 8192K in order to keep the text inside the icon (which was designed to be a maximum of five characters wide). This option will keep the display in K regardless of how much memory you have. Depending on which font you are using for the display, it can overwrite the icon but can look pretty impressive! If you have a 10Mb-12Mb machine, you can usually use this option without the display looking daft. The above RMEnsure commands can also be used to run FreeMem, as the actual application is not needed (apart from a sprite file). Clicking Adjust on the icon will display the current time for five seconds and then redisplay the memory, assuming Quick is not ticked. If it is, you can use Select to get back to the memory display straight away.
