What exactly are you paranoid about? I would say there's no danger of
anything bad happening if you post the source code. If you want people
to use it for free, I mean. Dozens of "interested progammers" will
immediately port it to every platform they want to use, and they'll
think *you're* doing *them* a favor :-)
I've never heard Graham Nelson complain about people stealing code from
Inform.
