Hi!

(I looked around for this topic using Google, but didn't find anything
before posting here.  If there is a better search facility, please, let me
know.)

I'm working on several programs for various people, but don't want to share
the source code.  I'm wondering if there is a way to protect a program you
write from an user either reading and/or modifying the code?  If yes,
great!  Ah, what is it?  If no, how can I submit this as a feature request
for a future release.  Specifically, if it is a new feature the
requirements I see are:

The programmer can set the ooRexx program file so the user can:

   - Only read but can't make changes the ooRexx interpreter will recognize.
   - Neither read nor modify any program.
   - Allow the end user to read and modify the program, but require a new
   program name for the saved program.
   - Allow the end user to read and save the original program.

My thought on how to implement would be a new exe file / program to create
and maintain these program files.  The rexx.exe, dll, etc would need to
know how to read the new binary files.    NOTE:  I don't look at this as a
compiler but closer to encryption of the ooRexx program.

(As for US export, the encrypt / decrypt) could be an user-exit supplied by
the programmer.  What would come with ooRexx is a simple template that
would do something similar to zip, which should be OK for release
worldwide.)

Thank you,

Bert.
