Apple Software Protection Digest (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781667104508)

Welcome to the Apple Software Protection Digest - dedicated to the subject of protection and how it relates to software for the Apple II series of computers. You will learn how to protect, unprotect and backup your software. Inside this collection are Jules H. Gilder's six issues published between 1985 and 1986. Too often, purchasers of programs get stuck. They buy a program only to discover that it can't be used with a particular accessory board or disk drive. And, because the program is protected, it can't be modified. Apple II owners need a place where they can get more information about software protection. They need to know what software protection is, how it's implemented, what are the consequences of it, how it can be overcome if necessary and if there are any comparable unprotected alternatives to particular protected software packages. Apple Software Protection Digest will provide you with this information and more. It will show you new ways to protect, unprotect and backup your programs. It will teach you how to prevent others from accessing your programs and it will show you how to make them more difficult to copy. In addition, you'll learn how to overcome these and other protection schemes that are in use. You'll learn how to use the powerful, but complicated nibble copy programs. You'll also learn how to crack or remove protection entirely from many programs. With the programs that are included in each issue of the Digest, you'll build a valuable library of utility software that will make the job of protecting, unprotecting and backing up software easier. And, tutorials will keep you up-to-date on both simple and sophisticated protection techniques. In addition to all this, you will get reviews of hardware, software and books that are of particular importance to the software protection field. Programmers work long, hard hours to get their software working and they deserve to be compensated fairly for it. On the other hand, the honest consumer should not be penalized and limited in their application of a particular program simply because the publisher decided to protect it. You may have a legitimate need to backup a program and we hope to supply you with the knowledge you need to do that. Alternatively, you may wish to protect a program that you've written so that others can't copy it. We'll show you how to do that too.
