Hi, criminal news...

I share the point of view that I can compile things with museum Turbo C
and even spread them. But I cannot spread Turbo C itself easily: I am
supposed to send people to the Borland museum to fetch their own copy
if they want one. If you disagree about that, I can publish source only
versions and somebody else can compile binaries from them and send them
back to me... well, maybe I already do it like that? The binaries are
completely identical :-). This reminds me of the many times that Tom asked
me to test EMM386 patches before I send them, although I do not have TASM.
Should I see this as an invitation to use a pirated version? Who cares. I
have too many things to maintain anyway, so I am not planning to send any
EMM386 patches again anytime soon.
The things which I do maintain all compile in TC, NASM and DJGPP, and at
least the latter 2 are even open source themselves. As explained, I have
no problems with the Turbo C museum license either. Duh.

Eric.


PS: NANSI compiles with Arrowsoft ASM, freeware non-supported closed
source version. Should be okay license-wise, too.
