I shared this a little while ago on Twitter, but thought I would share here to.

I had some thoughts on seeing if I could convert .dsk images to .woz images and recreate what SOS is looking for to satisfy its copy protection. It turned out to be a fun exercise and I learnt a bit about the woz file format along the way.

I used the dsk2woz program that Thomas Harte announced on here some time ago, and modified it to add in what we need.

You can read the details on my blog post here:
