At least that's what I think. That might be the case, but I'm not sure if it really is good news for Manuel. If Stella is GPL, then his idea of protecting his games by compiling the binaries into the emulator wouldn't work, as he would have to provide the source code to anyone who wants it. And if he had to provide the source code for his games, that would be an even worse situation for him than it seems to be now. ;-) Ciao, Eckhard Stolberg ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
