   Category: Copy protection
    Summary: The authors' names and a copyright notice, buried in the code
    Context: See this variable in context in the source code
 Variations: See code variations for this variable in the different versions
 References: No direct references to this variable in this source file


 This copyright notice is not used anywhere and it is obfuscated by EOR'ing
 each character with 164, but presumably the authors wanted their names buried
 in the code somewhere. Though they do also have recursive token 94, which
 reads "BY D.BRABEN & I.BELL" and can be displayed on the title screen using
 the "X" configuration option, so this isn't the only author name easter egg
 in the game. It contains the following text:
