[Coco] Tano Dragons?

[Steve Ostrom]

John, all of my Dragon programs ( and I have over 100 originals ) are 
cassettes.  Almost every one is copy protected with at least a loader 
program which makes copying via software difficult.  My hope is that 
most of these use the same loader program, and if a person knows what 
this does, it might be easy to defeat it and get a non-copy protected 
version.  I have enough ML knowledge to break these loaders down but not 
enough time to make it worth my while.  I know there is a very large 
number of Dragon programs available for the Dragon emulators, usually as 
".cas" files.  Search for Dragon emulators and you'll get hundreds of 
software selections.  Copying these to disk for your real Dragon may 
require some special software.
