Files with the ACC extension are data files associated with numerous programs. These programs can include the Accent Duo program, Graphic Accounts program and specific programs used in Atari’s ST computer.
The Altamira Composer also uses files with the ACC file extension. The program was developed by Altamira Software, which was later bought by Microsoft Corporation. The program was later renamed as Microsoft Composer. However, it still uses the .acc file extension as the default file format for the graphic images it creates.
The program Graphical Environment Manager, or GEM, was one of the first graphic user interfaces. The program was used for early IBM and Atari computers. Digital Research, Inc originally developed it. The program uses several files to store processes that are called for specific purposes by the user. One of the types of files used by GEM comes with the ACC file extension.GEM resource files with the file extension .acc are in exe-format. This means the files are stored as executable files that store processes and applications. However, GEM files with the ACC file extension are loaded as overlays instead of actual programs. This means the files are used to encompass certain processes. GEM files with the .acc file extension contain descriptions about the other files used by the program. These files are loaded automatically. However, they are not able to allocate resources or edit information.The ACC file extension is also used for programs for the Atari ST computer. Atari ST is one of the earliest personal computers created by Atari Corporation. The "ST" part of the model's name refers to the Motorola 68000 processor used by the computer. The processor can handle a 16-bit external bus and 32-bit external bus. Programs, which were created for the ATARI ST machine, came with the .acc file extension. Programs with the file extension ACC contain processes, which are compatible with the Atari ST computer.
The Windows-based Accent Duo with Translation integrates Accent's multilingual word processor with translation software.
Program (DR-DOS - ViewMax file) (GEM / resident)
Used to be Altamira Composer.
The ACC file extension is associated with Graphic Accounts, a personal finance management software, developed by FKJ Software.
