It's just that compared to what I'm used to in terms of flexibility, it's far too restrictive and somewhat confusing. I'll ignore the issues of security since those are ongoing in another thread. - Scott

How do you want to loose a Source that is comming with the PE, as well as Resources and all? What more secure than this could you imagine? Saving the whole thing several times? Yes, this also is already implemented:[Ctrl]/[K] incremental saving. > You said the executable portion of the PE is always based on the > source embedded. So if I pop open my hex editor and modify the source > which is embedded - because I can since it is neither compressed nor > encrypted - Yes. You can also take a hammer and destroy your computer. You can also load the PE in an Editor like Ultra-Edit, force it in Text-Mode, and edit the source like for any text file. This is simpler than with an Hexa Editor. > when I launch the application, will it detect the change > and recompile before actually executing? Yes, it will detect it immidiatly, and warn you that the file has been modified, and that you should suspect a Virus. :) [This also, is NOT A JOKE AT ALL: Try it] Betov. < http://rosasm.org >
