Yes, CopyII will copy MacPascal, but be careful! MacPascal apparently has
a pseudo-worm built into the copy protection scheme. Take the copy, load
one of the demo programs, and simulate an edit of the program by
repeatedly clicking the mouse button with the cursor in the program
window. On the 101st click, the disk will spin and MacPascal will do
an automatic "QUIT" and return to the finder. The original does not do
this. Hopefully, the worm does not do any permanent damage.
