<PRE>><i> Okay well I hate to go slightly off topic here but this is a question
</I>><i> that I need to ask since we're talking about all GPL, LGPL, etc. Where
</I>><i> does building an application with gcc fall into all of this? I write a
</I>><i> program, build it with gcc or g++ and plan to sell it to other users.
</I>><i> But, I don't want to distribute the source of the application. Can I
</I>><i> still use gcc/g++? or am I forced to find an alternative compiler such
</I>><i> as VisualC for windows or a unix specific compiler for unix variants?
</I>
Yes you can use GCC to compile proprietary softwares (else most of
the playstation, GBA etc.. games are GPL :-) ), only software including
GPL code become GPL itself, not the product of GPLed software.
