Jeff, would you like to rethink that perhaps. The way I read it is that you
are saying if some programmer makes another program that does exactly the same
thing another one does - it's as illegal as pirating the original product.
Duh...then if that's correct - every program ever written that does the same as
another program is illigal and is an act of piracy???
So, then any Apple II or IIgs program that does exactly the same thing as
another one can be just as il;legal as pirating the original product. That's
what it sounds like you said ---> and I know you surely don;t think such a
thing - do you?????
OH BOY!!! Please rewrite the above you posted in the << .>> - It simply sounds
obsurd, the way it reads now!
Cheers,
