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
In order to pack as much software as possible onto this disc, we have had to leave off the ArcFS archiving program. However, this program is on the Education disc which should also have been supplied with your subscription. To use the programs, run the ArcFS program. Double-clicking on the Programs file should then open the archive containing the software. Each item of software can be de-archived by dragging its icon to another directory. See the individual help files provided with the programs for instructions on how to use them.
