>Without having comments they can't hack the code or >at least they can't be sure they could. Ah, so you would be an advocate of the code obfuscator that I believe Gimpel Software (the people that do PC-Lint) have (or had in the past). I believe it obfuscates C code removing comments and what-have-you for distribution as source code. Seems that this is the only way to reliably distribute some packages because of the myriad of *nix systems out there. There may be others who do similar packages too. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY! [EE]:,[OT]: ->Other [BUY]:,[AD]: ->Ads
