This message is sent for sake of completeness] From: Steve Stein, Think Technologies Subject: Macintosh Pascal Copy Protection Date: 22 Oct 84 In response to the message traffic about Macintosh Pascal copy protection and what you can and cannot do because of it: 1. (To kalagher@mitre:) Don't worry about modifying the original disk with any of the standard tools (e.g. the Finder, the Font Mover). As long as the MacPascal application and its associated files are on the disk, things should work OK. 2. You can run MacPascal from an external floppy drive. Also, once you get around Apple's "may not be copied or moved" protection (a la JW-Peterson@UTAH-20.ARPA), and making the auxiliary data files IPAUX and IPINIT visible, you can move all of them to an external hard disk drive and run from there (with the speed of summer lightning, comparatively speaking). YOU MUST HAVE THE FLOPPY IN THE ON-BOARD MACINTOSH DRIVE AT ALL TIMES for this to work (this is a bug). This means that if you have programs or data files on floppies that you want to access, you must move them to your hard disk BEFORE running MacPascal, since once you start running, you cannot swap the MacPascal disk out of the internal drive (sorry about that). 3. Comment 2 applies for Lisas under MacWorks as well.
