Jason,
I ship no encripted code for several reasons. First, if someone wants
in as you did, it is a minor inconvience to unprotect and unKelvinate.
Second, if there is a support problem, I can usually fix it over
the phone and talk my client through the editing. I once gave a crash
course in Edlin. Thirdly, I have enough trouble keeping track of
versions, programs, what runs with what else, etc. Using only source
code is one less thing to mess up.
I know my products will be pirated, therefore I pack each with extra
labels. If it is distributed, I want my name on it.
I am releasing a product called THE PATTERN MAKER which is Kelvinated
for speed of loading. If there is room on the diskette we will include
the source code.
