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
STREETS AHEAD PATIENCE
I HAVE now done a revision of all my patience games and added a variant
of BELEAGURED CASTLE. This is called STREETS AND ALLEYS and is a harder
game as the Aces are not initially put out. This needed the positions of
the foundations to be indicated on the screen so another character was
added to the menu program and also the added instructions.
The programs are now, apart from SCORPION which is not one of my
programs, written in a similar way and the procedures, which are common
to all the programs are in the same order in each program.
I hope to write further on these programs later.
I have also added two features to my game BLACK HOLE and hope later
to add these to the other games -
1. Undo
You can now undo your moves by pressing U each time and you can take
all your moves back to the beginning again.
2. Statistics
You are given a score which is increased each time you add a card to the
black hole and decreased when you remove one.
Richard Dimond
UNFORTUNATELY Richard Dimond no longer uses an Electron for programming,
and he has used a routine to display cards in BLACK HOLE that doesn't
work properly on the Electron. Therefore, only BBC users will be able to
test his new BLACK HOLE patience program. Also, SCORPION requires a MRB
on the Electron is you don't fancy waiting hours for displays to be
updated.
