I am  posting an MS-Basic nibble copier to net.sources.  It seems to be able
to circumvent the copy protection on all of the disks I  have tried to  copy.

As written, the program requires two disk drives, but I was able to hack my
own version so that only one disk drive is required.  I should warn you that
a one disk version requires 80 swaps to copy a single disk - so be sure to
pack a lunch.

This program, written by Dennis Brothers, is being posted because of the recent
interest in backing up protected software.  It is intended **only** for use
by persons who wish to exercise their legal right to produce archival copies
of software that they have purchased.  It is **not** intended that this program
be used for unlawful purposes.
