Some commercial MS-DOS games were written in GW-BASIC. Infuriatingly it was not possible to list the code for those. I could not figure it out at the time.

Almost 40 years later, in 2025, I learned about the "protected" save format in GW-BASIC, and that there are tools to open those files and allow you to list the code.
