Program Easter Eggs?
It's funny how a person always discovers more about what they bought
in a program when they attempt to duplicate their original!
When trying to copy Prince of Persia, using a similar copy-protection
scheme to Wings of Fury, I skimmed through the only unprotected track,
track 0.
I noticed some extra code and words that had no apparent connection
to the boot code.
Prince of Persia has the following "Easter Eggs" in the first track:
A congrats message to a college student
A double-lores screensaver? (color changing pixels)
A single-hires rotating and floating cube
Are there any other programs that have these type of Easter Eggs
hidden in them?
