I don't want to get into any legal problems or assuming i could do something and I would be breaking laws or something ok, I have the bcsio20 package, and was wondering if it would be fine to possibly use the term.c and/or test.c but just add on for whatever program i wanted to try to make?or would that go against some copyright law ? ok, secondly, no one has ever answered this and i don't know if it is too much off-topic for this group or not I noticed most programs, whether freeware or shareware or whatever, have copyrights would I just put somewhere in the code so it would print (copyright blah blah blah) or would i have to go somewhere and pay for copyright stuff? I'm not really sure where or who to ask. I don't have any experience with copyright or how to go about it thanks matt
