There is no 'dead giveaway' that the contents of the Fish disks have
been decompressed.  The ad clearly states that the disk contains the
contents of Fish disks 1-360, *plus additional PD software*, totaling
over 400 megabytes.  There is also no reason to believe that any scripts
have been modified.
