Cole/!Channel5/!Help
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.

!Help for !Channel5 Written by Owain Cole Visions of the Impossible Sat 02nd August 1997 What is it? =---------= Now that we have 5 channels to choose from, it's inevitable that some people just can't stop watching TV; so to make them at feel at home when using their Arc this handy utility places a 'channel 5' logo at the top of the screen. To make you feel even more at home, you can select the amount of fuzz and bad reception that you get for free with your channel5 signal. Coming Soon =---------= !Video re-tuner, this will instantly remove all fuzz and allow you to select the good option on the tuning menu, currently greyed out. Disclaimer =--------= Any similarity between TV stations mentioned in this application and real stations is purely coincidental ;-) Owain Cole Sat 02nd August 1997 Miscellaneous =-----------= Check out the Visions Of The Impossible web-pages at: http://www.rodean.demon.co.uk/index.html Any info can be gotten from: n.a.atkinson@durham.ac.uk
