No.

Yes. Now, there are two lines of attack you can use to activate the
cheat mode:

i) What is the only room in JSW128 / JSW64 whose name is not the same
as in the original?

ii) I've put some of the source for JSW128 on my website, though (of
course) not the bit that actually does the check. Still, there's
enough there to find the POKE that turns it on.
