Here are some program cracks for various Macintosh applications. I have tried the ones for the Quest and Macintosh Pascal. You may have to piddle with various files that contain bad data markers etc in order to be able to copy the disks from the finder. Poke, explore, enjoy... (From Mac International BBS) ------------------------------------------------------------ Title: Cracks By: ROBERT EXCALIBAND On: 08-22-1985 12:00:00 The following are byte/track manipulations that can be used to un-copy-protect assorted Mac disks. If you have any others, let me know and I will add them to the list and keep a running total. Most of the cracks came from Mac Crack- ers of America. To use them you will need FEDIT (File Edit) or a similar application.

Besides, Sonny would never condone it. And by the way, there is no need to 'beat' "Griffon Terminal"(sic), since it isn't copy- protected any more.

Should the above noted bytes (^^^^) be NULL filled? Just making sure! Thanks for the Cracks! Gary Jenkins jenkins@ucla-cs
