Besides, "copy" is too generic, and implies piracy. Preferred terms are "backup", "archive", and "make hard drive installable". Using the word "copy" instead of a more specific term is a good way to get yourself ignored. >Scott Alfter-----------------------------_/_---------------------------- >Support Operation Apple Storm! / v \ Apple II: >Internet: alfter@uns-helios.nevada.edu ( ( the power to be your best! > GEnie: S.ALFTER \_^_/ -- /// ____ \\\ |"It's nothing to do with me.

Copy II Plus doesn't work for me either. If someone can give me the PARMS
for Copy II Plus for Arkanoid II, I'd be very happy. Ho about instructions
for Dazzle Draw (5.25")? I can't get that either...

I've been able to backup Arkanoid II with Copy II Plus v8.2, but it still has that annoying key-disk restriction. I don't think I used any parms on it. Apple IIgs version. Still trying to bypass that key disk bit. The 3.5" schemes are getting better, but still not as secure as the 5.25" formats. Perhaps just difficult to protect a program and still be able to run it from ProDOS/GSOS. >--- >ProLine: aford@pro-mansion | Please Support the Apple II >Internet: aford@pro-mansion | >UUCP: crash!pro-mansion!aford | Line of computers. >ARPA: crash!pro-mansion!aford@nosc.mil | >BitNet: aford%pro-mansion.cts.com@nosc.mil | -- /// ____ \\\ |"It's nothing to do with me.

The parameters for all Taito games are available on GEnie. I downloaded them and was able to run all three Taito games from my hard drive without keydisks or anything. Unfortunately, I threw out the param's when I finished with them, but, as I mentioned before, they can be found in the Apple II library on GEnie. -- =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= | Basilisk, who is he?

So go ahead and use the word copy all you like, and if someone takes that as IMPLYING piracy, well then they are just un American I suppose!. Platkus

Actually, since I didn't see a "Distribution" line in your message, this isn't America, it's the world. I do agree that 'copy' shouldn't imply piracy. -- David Huang | "Calzoni Pizza: Internet: daveh@ccwf.cc.utexas.edu | Delivery in six UUCP: ..!ut-emx!ccwf.cc.utexas.edu!daveh | hours, or else your America Online: DrWho29 | pizza is cold."
