Re: Renaming the downloads !

I will test the ones I uploaded that are marked with a , though someone with a Dragon 64 will have to check "Perseus & Andromeda" to make sure that the graphics load (instructions are given in the text file included in the zip).

Re: new user questions

what are CAD files? Am I right in thinking that there was some finger trouble and that you meant CAS files (since 'S' is next to 'D' on the keyboard)? CAS is the file extension used to designate files created from cassette images, as such you load them into a Dragon emulator though you can reconver...

Re: Rerip: Cosmic Cruiser - Imagine

Re: The White Cliffs of Dover by Salamander

Sorry, but it is from a copy, that I think was given to me in 1985 or possibly '86. When did Salamander cease trading Dragon Software? I am not quite sure but after reading the 6809 Colour Show section of Dragon Update Issue 4 I would guess late 1984 or early 1985. This section also states that Sal...

Re: The White Cliffs of Dover by Salamander

Re: Modern storage option...

Would it be possible for it to create memory dumps so that you can save, and load, snapshots of whatever you are working on (or playing) at any time?
