Are the GCC include files and libraries considered part of the 'Program' under the COPYLEFT? In other words, is it legal to distribute programs built by using the compiler for profit? I'm sure that there are others wondering the same thing. I have heard that much of the NeXt software was written with the GCC compiler, and need to know if this falls under section 2a in the COPYING file... Thanks, John -- John Steele -- jsteele@netcom.com Most people spell COBOLSUX incorrectly... -- John Steele -- jsteele@netcom.com Most people spell COBOLSUX incorrectly...
