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
J I G S A W I n f o r m a t i o n
===================================
The first screen shows a selection of files, each containing one or more
pictures - click mouse button on chosen file name, or if you want to use your
own picture, click on the entry 'OTHER', then type in the name of your file
and press RETURN. Any sprite file may be used provided it is not too big and
the sprite has suitable proportions for a jigsaw (see below). If the file is
on a different disc, swap discs before pressing RETURN. If the chosen file
contains more than one sprite, a second screen showing the name and a tiny
version of each sprite will appear - click on the one you want. (If a sprite
has its own palette, the colours may not be correct at this stage). If there are more than six sprites in the file, the rest may be displayed by clicking
on 'NEXT PAGE' (use 'BACK PAGE' to return to the previous screen). If any
sprites were created using a 256-colour mode, the sprite itself will not be
displayed, but may still be selected by clicking on the box showing the mode.
When you have chosen your picture, the next screen will allow you to select
how many pieces you want - choose a low number for an easy task, a high one
if you have plenty of time to spare! (The actual number of pieces may not be
exactly the number selected; it will depend on the proportions of the chosen
sprite). The puzzle screen itself shows a grid in which the picture is to be
assembled on the left, a small version of the picture as a guide at top right
and a selection of puzzle pieces at bottom right. Click any mouse button on
the piece you want (the selected piece will then appear above the puzzle
grid) and place it on the grid by clicking the mouse in the square in which
you think it should go. (If you later realise it is in the wrong place it may
be moved by clicking the mouse on it to re-select it). Continue until all the
pieces have been used up - when the puzzle is complete (and all the pieces
are in their correct positions) the grid lines covering the puzzle will
disappear (if the sprite has a 'mask', background lines will remain).
Once all the pieces have been moved to the grid, any which are not in the
correct position (there are quite likely to be some if the puzzle has pieces
which appear to be identical or almost so) then any piece which is in the
wrong place will change colour for a short time (indicated by the hourglass),
so that you will know which pieces have to be swapped around. Note, timimg
stops while the hourglass is displayed.
To quit the current puzzle before completion, press the ESCAPE key at any
time except while the hourglass is running.
Note - Although JIGSAW uses windows, because of possible mode / palette
changes and because it sets a target time for completing the puzzle, the
program does not 'multi-task', i.e. any other WIMP tasks will be suspended
while the puzzle screen is displayed.
Guide to palette usage
======================
If a puzzle sprite contains its own palette, JIGSAW will use this for the
puzzle, swapping back to the previous palette when you return to the Desktop.
If you are using a sprite with a palette which has to be loaded separately,
load it before you select 'Start Puzzle' from the Icon Bar menu.
Otherwise, JIGSAW will use either the standard (Mode 12) Desktop palette
for sprites created in 16 (or less) colour modes, or the 256-colour palette.
Sprite size limitations
=======================
Minimum size:- There is no minimum size limit - you can even make a jigsaw
from one pixel if you wish, though it won't be much fun, as all the pieces
will look the same!
Maximum size:- The program allows just over 160Kb for a sprite FILE; this
is sufficient for one full-screen sprite (640 x 256 pixels) in a 256-colour
mode, two full-screen sprites (or one larger than full-screen sprite, as long
as it is not more than 160Kb) in a 16-colour mode, or a large number of small
sprites.
Proportions:- The program adjusts the size of the picture to the maximum
allowed by the size of the grid, while still keeping the sprite's original
height / width ratio. Thus, if you choose a sprite which is much wider than
it is high, the program will make the picture the same width as the grid and
will decrease the height proportionately; if the height is then found to be
insufficient for at least two "lines" of puzzle, the program will display a
warning message and abandon the attempt to make a puzzle from this sprite.
(Similarly for tall, thin sprites).
