Bits/!FileList/!Help/ReadMe

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.

  �     by Dave Thomas � 1991        �

This little app-util will open up a filer
window to the vdu device.When a file (or
application) is dragged into it,it will 
dump it out in a command window.
It's intended for a quick way of looking
at files to see what is in them it's also
useful when the filer has 'seen' !Edit 
and insists upon you loading it to see 
text files.
