time-limiting a trial-version

[Eric Chatonet]

Bonjour Nicolas,

There would be a lot to say about protection schemes...
A way to achieve your goal would be to use SSL encryption:
Cipher and decipher routines would be placed in your standalone and  
values in a custom property of your stack.
Note that you need Rev Enterprise to access SSL functions.
