Headers are merely input-output specifications. Record definitions, external interface specifications. Such things were never meant to be (and are not claimed to be) proprietary. How would you call a kernel function without specifications pray tell? If you can't call a kernel function/method, then how could you use the kernel at all? By your definitions, any proprietary software designed to run on linux would be illegal to run on linux. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
