FontMgr2/!FontMGR2/Resources/FontDir/nonAuto/!Boot

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
| Boot file for !Fonts exported from !FontMGR2

| Nothing happens if you put this in a RISC OS 2 machine except that
| the !Fonts sprite is set up - this means that, when a RISC OS 2 !Fonts
| directory is seen the !Boot file will not be run; double clicking on the
| appropriate !Fonts will force installation.
|
| Take care when merging RISC OS 2 fonts with these (RISC OS 3) fonts -
| many fonts are contained in the RISC OS 3 ROM and thus do not appear in
| !Fonts; normally you should not copy the corresponding RISC OS 2 fonts!
