Documents/History
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.

ArcFS 0.50/2.00 Documentation

History

Version Improvements
v0.20 First Release version Jan 91
v0.21 Max number of directory levels increased from 16 to 64, some tidying
v0.22 Snowed in 8th Feb 91 so made extensive changes: URD and PSD now
supported. Commands *Back and *URD provided. *FileInfo command added.
Compression format removed from *Info and *EX output (now given by
*FileInfo). *Info & *FileInfo now give information on multiple
wildcarded files. Compressed file size now stored in the top 24 bits of
the file attributes. PC format files are now supported. Supplied with
new ArcFS Filer with icon and menu.
v0.23 Corrected 2 bugs - ArcFS did not release 16k of claimed memory when an
error occured during the load crunch routine. If you cancelled a
request from the load pack routine to insert a disk the request was
repeated a second time.
v0.30 Now added support for squashed and compressed formats. Also added
support for Garbled files, *Garble and *NoEncryption commands provided.
Comprehensive error checking checks for corrupted data and/or passwords
and file encryption methods inconsistent with those that have been set.
v0.40 Added support for multiple archives, new format archives, rewritten
ArcFS Filer as a module task. Also added SWI's. Corrected bugs such as
the one causing strange characters to appear in % compression ratios
(sometimes causing a crash when trying to give a ratio for very small
files). Not for P.D. distribution as I am still waiting for a SWI chunk
base allocation.
v0.41 Added support for FSEntry_Func 11,12,13,14 and 19. Will now work with
Impression (documents can be loaded without another copy of Impression
being loaded and !Impress can be loaded from an archive without
crashing). Tidied the error numbers (some now different) to give
allocations shown above. SWI chunk base allocation &437C0 received
from Acorn. New ArcFSFiler (v0.21) should work with older Oak SCSI and
ICS IDE hard drives
v0.42 Fixed bug which sometimes gives an address exception when trying to
read an encrypted file with the wrong password. v0.41 was mistakenly
sent out with a copy of ArcFSFiler v0.21 which stated that it was not
P.D.
v0.43 Fixed bug which gives incorrect load address on return from OS_File
load commands. This caused problems with Edit not maintaining the
correct filetype when updating files.
v0.44 Fixed bug present in versions 0.40 to 0.43 which caused the machine to
crash when attempting to open SEA ARC or PKARC archives or Spark
archives containing PC format files.
v0.45 The root directory of any archive already open can now be displayed by
double clicking on the archive.
v0.50 First read only version to compliment ArcFS 2. Many improvements
including display of hourglass during operations, new ArcFSFiler with
a preferences window, new set of SWIs (old ones kept for
compatability). *MUCH* faster (takes about half as long to load files
as v0.45).
v1.01 First fully implimented read / write version.
v1.02 Compact now fully implimented, makes archive as small as possible.
Also, bug fix as for v0.43
v1.03 Fixed bugs in rename routine and also in compact routine. Now generates
an error if you attempt to delete the CSD, Library or URD. Also, bug
fix as for v0.44
v1.04 Added facility to detect read / write version from SWI "ArcFS_Status"
v1.05 Fixed bug which sometimes caused the loss of additional directories /
files when deleteing directories. File recovery program 'BgArcFS104'
included for files lost due to this bug.
v1.06 Fixed related bug which sometimes produced huge archives when trying to
compact an archive from which a directory had been deleted.
v1.07 Fixed some problems with Compact.
v1.08 As for v0.45. Also allows rename between different directories in an
archive, and improvements to random access file i/o.
v1.09 Rewritten compact so that it is faster and more reliable. Fixed
problem with OS_GBPB 8,9,10,11 handling routine which sometimes caused
an inconsistent desktop directory display, following file deletion.
v1.10 Development / Alpha Test / Beta Test versions for ArcFS 2.00
v2.00 Improvements as for v0.50 plus: Autocompact, makes 'intelligent' use
of headers left by deleted objects (headers no longer need compacting
unless the total number of files in an archive is greatly reduced -
Manual compact will still do this although autocompact only compacts
data). Copying ArcFS archives into an archive will produce a
sub-directory containing the contents of the copied archive.
