Docs/RISC
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
RISC OS 2 ========= Both emulators work on RISC OS 2, however when the !Run file of an application is a Snapshot (as it might be for a BBC script file or xzx multiload) an extra copy of the appropriate emulator will be loaded even if it is already loaded. RISC OS 3.0 =========== This version of the operating system is not supported. However, it is likely that both emulators will work. 3D Templates may have to be disabled. RISC OS 3.1 =========== Under RISC OS 3.1 and above, 3D templates are supported (if bit 0 of CMOS byte 140 "the 3D bit" is set) as is solid dragging (if bit 1 of CMOS byte 28 is set) "Mode 60" will not work on A4 portables without an external monitor.
