If you don't want people to see your source code, and you want your app to run on any Windows PC, you'll have to use a fully compiled language like C/C++ to produce .exe files. Even .exe files can be reverse engineered, but it's a difficult job to reconstruct sensible source code from them. Dave -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
