I have two suggestions for you. First, you can make your code "un-maintainable" by following the excellent advice in this little primer: http://mindprod.com/unmain.html Second, you can hire Damian Conway. Here is an example of his expertise in the world of hidden meaning: http://libarynth.f0.am/cgi-bin/view/Libarynth/SelfGOL Back-in-the-day there was the idea of doing a core-dump and then "un-dumping" your core into a running state. I don't know how this would work with a Mason-based system, however. Then, there is always creating a special installation of Perl which can decrypt the code prior to parsing. That sounds like a weekend project for the suitably twisted. Warmest regards, -Jesse- -- Jesse Erlbaum The Erlbaum Group [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: 212-684-6161 Fax: 212-684-6226
