Re: [ql-users] QL Pawn

[Dave Walker]

Rich,   I once looked into this.   The copy protection itself is easy enough to break - if I remember correctly it was based on reading some hidden sectors from the microdrive.  The issue was that it had to be read into a specific address in memory and executed from there - and the address in question only seemed to work on an unexpanded QL.   I might have to dig out my copy and see (assuming it still works) whether anything better can be done.   Dave   ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 19, 2002 7:55 PM Subject: [ql-users] QL Pawn Does anyone have a copy of the original program by Magnetic Scrolls complete with manual etc. they would like to sell??  I have had a good offer... This is not much use to modern QLers after all , as no-one seemed to be able to crack the copy protection (shame).
