Hi Jan-Erik
I think I contacted the author long time ago. If memory serves me correctly, the issue was that the source code of GpfRexx contains the scramble procedure of any work created with that tool. That will mean that you can de-compile any software created GpfRexx if the author releases the source code. I think he does not want to have any kind of problems with that.
Maybe with a NDA, if someone gets the source code, to open source it will be required not to include that scramble procedure and maybe change the software in a way that the scramble code is customized by any software author.
Regards
Would he agree to that someone sign a NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement)
and either let that person remove the code or himself if we'd scramble money to do it?
At a later stage it would be interesting if Gpf Rexx could work with ooRexx 5.x
