- Hi there, I am fed up not being able to backup software, or run
- software off my HardDisc. So I wrote this amazing solution.
-
- Fudge, intercepts all calls to FileCore_DiscOp which is used to load
- directly from part of a disc. If the call has not been seen before it
- passes it onto FileCore and then saves the result in a file fgx where x
- is a number that increments from 1. Then the next time the software
- does the same call it loads the information from the fgx file and gives
- it to the software which thinks it came from the original disc! Oh
- Certain companies have been reasonably clever and trapped all saving
- and loading calls. So this little babby has it's own SWI to save. At
- present the software works with FileSwitch 1.98 which comes in RO3 I
- shall add some software for RO2 too.
-
- To back up a piece of software say !Game copy it to your hard disc and
- then add the following lines to !Run
- <Obey$Dir>.Fudge
- FudgeRW
- Set Fudge$Path <Obey$Dir>.
-
- Then run the software and use it for a while. When you think the
- software has done all it's protection code quit the program (CTRL break
- is safe!) Then change the !Run to
- <Obey$Dir>.Fudge
- FudgeR
- Set Fudge$Path <Obey$Dir>.
- LoadFudge <Obey$Dir>.Chocolate
-
- The software is only useful if it has saved the file chocolate along
- with a few fg files in the directory set by Fudge$Path.

- ==> Help on keyword FudgeR
- *FudgeR Causes fudge to capture known DiscOp's but not catch new
- DiscOp's. This should be used when using the software on the BackUp
- disc.
-
- ==> Help on keyword FudgeRW
- *FudgeRW Causes fudge to capture known DiscOp's and add new DiscOp's to
- it's list. Use this when backing up your software. Then once you think
- the software has done all it's DiscOp's *FudgeR should be used.
-
- ==> Help on keyword FudgeW
- *FudgeW Causes fudge to ignore DiscOp's that it already knows about and
- pass them on to FileCore. When a new DiscOp is issued it is added to
- the list.
