Re: [PHP4BETA] Byte-coding or protecting

: <snip> : > : >BTW, are commercials apps prohibited to be done in PHP? : >In other words, are you prohibited to make some money off your : >work, time and of course freeware PHP? : : PHP is not freeware. See http://www.php.net/license.html GCC and many oter C compilers also free, that means that there is no concept of commercial product in Unix, right? Or you have to make your own compiler or buy a commercial one. Then again, the OS is free which runs your program! So one will need to write an OS to sell a commercial software.... quite easy! If I understand right the terms, then I think there is nothing wrong with selling a custom-made script, since I am not managing or including PHP with it. They say, "We want this for $X in Z language", I do it and give it to them, and I want some protection that they don't resell my work. Is there anything wrong with it? I don't live in USA, and I am not 18 yet, so I can't officially register or get patents or whatever (I don't understand how it works actually!). Thanks. Faisal
