PD/BACKDROP/!StickyBrd/ExtModls/Command/!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.

Command allows you to store on-line *commands on the desktop to be executed
when double-clicking them.  Click on the 'New' menu entry to add a *command,
enter it's title or name in the first writable icon, the command itself 
(must be preceded by a *) in the second, and click OK.  A * icon will appear
at the current mouse position.  Run the command by double-clicking on the
icon.  This icon can be dragged about like any other, but not saved to disc.
