Answer» I haven't seen that program in a long time. If his / her program is open-source, you can look at TI, but if it's proprietary, you have to be extremely careful, as I wrote before... You need to do what I need to do, Squall -- get INVOLVED iwth more of the open-source world -- there's a lot to be found at sourceforge.net. When I wrote that it doesn't hurt to ask, I was supporting your curiosity. Perhaps you might contact the makers of Bonzai Buddy and see how much they're willing to help you. Quote from: squall_01 on April 01, 2008, 01:12:04 PM Theres a difference now between modify an USING some of his code. reverse engineering. No. Not when it is closed source. But good luck with that...I can't cite you a specific example, Squall, but I know individuals have gotten in trouble, or at least wound up in court, because they reverse engineered software drivers for particular pieces of equipment so they could be used in the Linux world, and even though their intentions were good, they got in trouble, because the ORIGINAL writers of the proprietary code were able to show too MANY similarities between their code and what was written for Linux.Thanks to those that helped, even if you dont think it was much. I was thinking about putting him on a 2k machine w/o an internet connection. Also, I found one better then him with no malware!
