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.

QRT ERROR CODES Illegal Parameter This error code no longer used. See Undefined Parameter. Too Few Parameters All the required parameters were not specified. See the QRT Language Reference Guide for a list of required parameters to this command.This error message also appears if a command line option with no argument is passed to QRT. Illegal Object Type QRT does not understand this primitive type. Malloc Failure QRT was unable to allocate enough memory. Either reduce the object tree size, or run QRT on a machine with more memory. Syntax Error Improper QRT syntax, such as a BEGIN_BBOX with no matching END_BBOX. Internal Error (Maybe 'Programmer Confusion Error' on some versions). This error should never occur.If it does,either there is some illegal value not caught during input parsing, or there is a programming error in the QRT system. File Error QRT couldn't open or close the output file. Check that the file name adheres to the naming convention used for your computer. Pattern not found A pattern was attached to a primitive, but this pattern was never defined. Pattern already defined Two patterns were defined with the same name. No observer defined No observer was defined to QRT. Undefined parameter QRT does not recognize this parameter type. Either it is not legal, or not legal in this context. World contains non-homogeneous object Error code not supported by this version of QRT. An index of refraction is 0 An object that is transparent has an index of refraction equal to zero. Illegal color_info value An object surface characteristic was defined improperly. Most take values in the range 0.00 to 1.00. Parameter should be >= 0 This parameter only takes values greater than zero, but it was given a value less than zero. Zero multiplier A pattern size multiplier is zero. Use only positive values. Undefined name An INSTANCE_OF primitive attempted to use a name that was not defined in the instance definition tree. Left paren expected There should be a left parenthesis on this line. Right paren expected There should be a right parenthesis on this line. Illegal vector structure A position or direction vector of the form (x,y,z) was specified improperly. Illegal color triple A color triple of the form (r,g,b) was specified improperly. Illegal command line argument An illegal command line option was specified. The legal command line options are: -xres, -yres, -aspect, and -foclen. The first two take integer arguments; the others take floating point arguments.
