+view2

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.

File contents
Using Text mode commands.

FORMAT PARAGRAPH

Will format from the line that the cursor is on to the next blank line.
Used to tidy up a paragraph when words are deleted or inserted and the
paragraph becomes untidy.

Those of us who remember the days of typing on an old typewriter will also
remember how we use to indicate a new paragraph by putting some spaces
before the first word of a new paragraph. In these days of wordprocessors
a new paragraph is indicated with a blank line. This is the reason.

TOP OF TEXT

Will move the cursor and the screen to the top of the text.

BOTTOM OF TEXT

Will move the cursor and the screen to the bottom of the text.

DELETE END OF LINE

If the cursor is moved to the middle of a line of text this command will
delete all the text to the end of that line.

BEGINNING OF LINE

Will move the cursor from its current position in a line to the beginning
of that line.

END OF LINE.

Will move the cursor from its current position in a line to the end of
that line.

INSERT LINE.

Will insert a blank line into the current cursor position.

DELETE LINE.

Will delete the line the cursor is currently on including any characters
on that line.

INSERT SPACE.

Will insert a space infront of the cursor.

DELETE SPACE.

Will delete the space infront of the cursor including any characters in
that space.

MOVE BLOCK.

Will move a block of text marked with the set marker command to the
current cursor position.

SWAP CASE.

Will change the case of the letter the cursor is on. A rather pointless
command.

MARGINS. Never used it.

DELETE UP TO CHARACTER

Will wait for a key to be pressed  and delete from the current cursor
position to the first instance of the character indicated by that key.
So if you have typed the whole alphabet, position the cursor on the E,
select this command and type M. The letters FGHIJKLM will be deleted.

HIGHTLIGHT 1   Causes printed text to be underlined.
HIGHTLIGHT 2   Causes printed text to be bold

GOTO MARKER.

Will wait for a number, 1, 2, 3 or 4 and put the cursor to the position of
that particular marker. Useful when you are editing a large file.

SET MARKER.

Will wait for a number key 1, 2, 3 or 4 to be pressed and set a marker with
that number at that position. 

If a number is selected which is the same as a previously set marker then
the old marker is deleted.

Markers will be deleted when a paragraph is formatted.

Used for Goto marker, Move block, Delete block and Copy block.
