Actually, I think I paid something like $100 for my first version of Gnat, which was on a CD. But I notice the company I bought it from seems to have disappeared now that folks' download speeds have increased. >I wouldn't buy a copy since CLAW is not Open Source. The source code is of course included (it pretty much has to be since it runs with multiple different compilers), but of course you mean you would insist on the right to sell or give away a copy to Marin. So I could sell Marin, but not you, a copy, or, if it was "Open Source (tm)", I could sell you a copy, but Marin probably wouldn't buy one from me since he could get it for less from you. Doesn't sound like such a good idea after all.
