App code protection options?

The people on this list have been so helpful answering my asked and unasked 
questions that I'm making good progress in building an ultimately 
commercially viable product in RR.

So, suppose a guy came up with something that could be really HUGE, 
market-wise. Is there a procedure, policy, method for protecting stack code 
to keep from being stolen blind? Say, release only as compiled executables, 
munge transcript code within the executable, encrypt associated files... or 
any other paranoid devices?  Apps built on other platforms have protection 
options, but none of them are cross-platform. For instance, I use Armadillo 
registration key systems for applications for Windows, but have no way to 
provide for that function cross-platform.
