If a user has local copy of the data, he can freely modify the data and you can't do anything about it; at worst they would just open the file in a text editor and reproduce the changed made in the patch manually. At most you could do some complex obfuscation scheme that will self-checksum the source during build or something, but nothing you could do is going to be incircemventable. -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis A lot of people have my books on their bookshelves.
