File Format

The PROT.* files contain text in different languages used during the copy-protection stage.

There are three lines of text. In an MS-DOS style ASCII text file.

The first line is the translation of the english text 'ENTER PASSWORD FOR COORDINATES'

The second line is always '%c %03d' which appears to be a C printf format string and is used to ask for the password at a particular place on the password sheet.

The third line is the translation of the english text 'PASSWORD INCORRECT'
