hahahaha....yeah or that you don't have to make the modifications yourself.
The thing to do is keep a list of real-names vs. 110ll00OO type names, write a little program that reads this in and does global replaces to put it back to something readable (then keep this in a SAFE place or in sometype of escrow). Put your contact information at the top of your main.prg - if someone wants the 'key' to make your code understandable then they can contact you. Obviously if they're trying to rip you off they're not going to be calling.
