RotF Copy question

this program, included in Wilfiz, is a bit weird. It seems to cover
core with a series of mov instructions...is an imp here? If so, how
does it really win? It's kind of confusing.

RotF's paper creates imp-spirals in the core. An imp-Spiral are three imp's
running 2667 Instructions away from each other. each mov, lays the command
for another spiral-arm. The greatest Power has an Imp-Spiral when its very
slow. So an overwritten enemy executes the mov's, but they only work on
another place, and so, the enemey falls through the instruction into
undefined core.
