Protected Include

I'm considering releasing a library of BlitzMax code which makes creating RPGs easy... I intend on releasing the library for free, however I don't want to give out the source for free.

How could I give the user the library without giving him the source?

Make it into a pre-compiled module, which doesn't include the source code.

Where's documentation on that?

Oh and it uses, types, variables and functions.

About building modules? There's a nice tutorial here.

Once you have that working, take a copy of it, remove the source, and you have yourself a module without source.
(As far as I know, there isn't a shorthand way of getting a module into that state - unless that's what zap mod is for??? - Anyone know any better?)

I followed the tutorial exactly and I got this error:

Compile Error: Identifier 'TList' not found

btw, I'm making my own module, not his.

It suggests your module is importing BRL modules but not BRL.LINKEDLIST.
What do you have for your Import statements?

ah... I found what i needed...

Edit:
How do you distribute modules?

Make a zip of the mod folder. there's also a zap utility (wich is a command line utility from the blitzmax engine) that creates a sort of zip of your module. Most poeple doesn't use it, but there it is. In would recommend you to create just a zip or a rar of your mymodule.mod folder once the source code is removed but the rest of compiled information is left there.
