Never seen this done, never even heard of such an app
before.
I know that at least two groups (or people) managed
to reverse engineer licence PAKs. One was even stopped
by DEC through legal action (IIRC).
I know of at least two (including me).
They would
still work with this particular method.
Just as a matter of interest, which apps?
One of the 3rd party TCP/IP apps was reputed to do this -
possibly Multinet. It's easy enough to check since
there is a logical you can set which causes all
licence requests to be displayed on the operator
console.
Which logical?
