which may be considered as destructive or generally bad.  However I do

Why Was Sneaker Made?
---------------------

I made Sneaker so that I might be able to alter game maps such as Battle
Isle, to find passwords to higher levels in games such as The Lost Vikings,
mess with save games, and to generally poke about in other peoples code.

With Sneaker you can load any Amiga DOS file and alter it.  Note if you
change the size of an executable file it will crash, it is not advisable to
save data over your original copy.
