> sorry, stupid question: > > what _is_ PICKLOCK?` PICKLOCK is a binary file that lets people write games for the Atari 7800. The code was taken from an Atari dev kit, and includes startup vectors and the correct checksum to pass the encryption test, but allows for people to add their own code. You can find a copy here: http://members.xoom.com/atari_docs/homebrew/ BTW, it has come to my attention that the Harry Dodgson monitor cart, which is a similar piece of code has a copyright that says copyright 1993 Harry Dodgson. So it's definitely different than PICKLOCK. In fact it's substantially different. So Lance should have no problem telling who is infringing on his ROM. And I don't believe that would be people using PICKLOCK. John -- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
