>Which criterion did your software violate in RMS's definition When I gave away my software for free (e.g. on a disk), it would have files such as: - foobar.exe (requires non-free proprietary Microsoft C compiler to rebuild this exe -- because of MS specific API calls) - foobar.c (had some proprietary C code in it) Basically, a user could run my software for $0, but they couldn't rebuild the executable using non-free tools. But in 1992, I wasn't aware of RMS's philosophy about "free as in libre" so I (and many others) just called it "free software".
