Eeli, Those are all good points. I will go ahead and GPL statement to every source file. I am waiting for people at SourceForge.net to approve my account (hopefully in next 48 hours). The source code will then be located at http://swordbible.sourceforge.net/ and I will try to organize it into logical subdirectories. Actually I am not going to add any further feature in SwordBible until the code is documented and properly organized. The source code that I hastily uploaded to my website is just a temporary hack so that I am not violating the GNU agreement. I have also changed the name of my software, as reflected at www.swordwarrior.net
