Message to Crackers
The original version of the game uses type-from-the-manual copy protection (which can be bypassed by renaming the desired table to INTRO.PRG).
The original INTRO.PRG file (a renamed executable, loaded by the launcher, in turn running the intro and table chooser) contains a hidden snark aimed at wannabe crackers:
HI HACKER! PLEASE DON'T CRACK THIS PROGRAM! IT WAS MADE BY
THE DEMO GROUP TSP. WE NEED THE MONEY TO BE ABLE TO KEEP ON
CODING GAMES FOR THE PC! THIS PROGRAM ISN'T HARD TO CRACK, SO
MAKE A DEMO INSTEAD TO PROVE YOUR SKILLS... IF YOU CRACK IT
WE WILL HATE YOU 4EVER! HAVE A NICE DAY! :-)
(Source: Source for INTRO.PRG)
Ironically, the official 2011 GOG re-release is pre-cracked.
