Can TiddlyWiki, or any derivative thereof, covered under the same GNU license, be used for the documentation for a donation-ware application?
It has been very difficult to get a response from anyone one this, or locate anything in the entire net-verse. I am not an attorney, so I really have no clue if by using it for the documentation that I would be violating anything. I have created an application. It is very small, and as of right now only about 20 people have even downloaded it. My application is donation-ware, similar to free-ware. As small as my application is, it requires a lot of documentation, and needs to display a lot of images. Using .chm files is horrible and does not look good at all. In turn I'd really like to use TiddlyWiki, or WoaS, in order to have offline documentation for my application. In order to create the proper shortcuts on the users start menu, I would have to package the page in the installer. Alternately, I would like to use a very small WebBrowser control on a *separate* viewing app to display the page without being able to navigate to anything else - pretty much an offline browser with no navigation controls limited to the documentation only. (source code for it consists of 1 line...) My application however, is not open source. It is covered under a very generic freeware license. Essentially I am somewhat stuck on whether or not I can use either TiddlyWiki or WoaS for documenting my application, and/or using the created page in a browser control limiting navigation, and/or packaging the page in the installer for the purpose of creating a shortcut to the page... Please help with some clarification as I am held up on finishing the remaining wiki pages until I can definitively know one way or another for certain. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
