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.

                            CAMERA TOOL
                            ~~~~~~~~~~~

This tool is for copying a rectangular part of the screen onto 
another part of the screen.

Move the pointer to the place where you want to place the bottom 
left corner of the rectangle then click (press and release) 
the left mouse button.

Now move the mouse and you will see a rectangle appear. When the
rectangle is the right size and in the right position, click the 
left mouse button again. Now, when you move the mouse, the whole 
rectangle will move. 

Move the rectangle to where you want to make the copy and 
click the left mouse button. You can do this as many times as 
you like. Click the right button to abandon the  copying.


Use the DELETE key to put the screen back to how it was before 
you started using the camera. (This must  be done BEFORE you 
return to the Menu screen.)

Press the middle mouse button to return to the Menu screen.
