CODECRAK.BAS was designed to break the encoded data file of
the game DISARM.COM for the Heath H-89 and similar computers.
CODECRAK reads the data file and converts what seems like gib-
berish to readable text. The program assumes the file DISARM.DAT
will be on disk B: and that you have a printer. If either of these
are not true the program is easily modified to fit your system.
Line 10 opens the file and line 140 handles text output.
An interesting side effect of CODECRAK is that a normal text file
run through the program will come out scrambled and if it is run
through again it will come out readable. This may be of interest to
users interested in sending coded text. If you do decide to do this
line 10 will have to be changed to ask for a file name.
This program came out of the fact that I have been stumped by DISARM
for many months and I was hoping that if I could read the data file of
the game I might be able to gain some useful insight to the game.
So far the file has yielded some clues, although it is not enough to
spoil the game; or even make it much easier.
