but in my opinion, the authors are simply too lazy to tinker with the files, well, considering
that all sorts of logs cannot be moved to an entire disk ;) then it’s understandable
and in general they are sold on "branded"floppy disks with stickers
and do not provide for pirated copying in an unknown order =)
although it has now become fashionable to upload files in BASIC, IMHO this is done
to make it easier to transfer the file to TAP and our distant friends could
look at the creations!
