No - Ed, you got me wrong!
I am NOT at ALL against sharing code and giving it away for free! But, he posted on a forum that is NOT Specific to programmers. And, for 3D Printing folks - if you don't already do programming - getting that code, by itself is no good! Since, not only do you normally have to have an IDE/Dev Env. to run the code - many times - you need extra packages. So - my point was - he should really share an EXE as opposed to just purely a python chunk of code - since, most in that forum may NOT know what to do with it!
I hope that makes more sense now...

Not funny at all. Sharing code is very commonplace in the world of free/open software.
I have a lot of my code on GitHub (https://github.com/EdLeafe), free for anyone to see and use/adapt. Why not?
