The PTC Open-Source Project (or POSP for short) is an API repository of special programming techniques for Petit Computer. The sample programs preloaded in Petit Computer felt lacking and didn't have any other examples on the community's frequent innovations.

On November 2, 2013, PetiTouch has merged with the PTC Open-Source Project for providing some of its APIs.

Note: Not for the average user demographic. This is not for you if you are only a gamer and have no plans on developing for Petit Computer. THIS IS NOT A GAME YOU CAN PLAY!

Instructions[]

POSP Demo #2[]

This second demo demonstrates the use of a license key system. It prevents pirates from stealing our free software. This system may help with restricting access to normal users, allowing private users with a license key access the program. (Useful for closed beta access and you want to invite a limited number of users. Also, this avoids breaking the "unavailable QR code" rule that took effect sometime during October. It's better than exposing your email address, right?)

Sample License Key: 50-4F-53-50-44-45-4D-4F (This license is also available as a QR code. See below.)

Note: As may have noticed, the sample license key is exposed within the source code. This is intentional for basic understanding on how it works. You may apply some sort of encryption method.

Note: Even though not explained within the demo, you may type "BACK" to abort the sample activation process.

Note:This is a form of DRM (digital rights management) which can be easily abused if programmed improperly. Use with caution.
