I'm not a lawyer either, but layman Mikey has been told that if you want to 
have much luck to collect damages over the issue, it's smart to actually 
register the material here in this country!  He's also been told that it 
isn't good enough here in the USA to just get it into the sources and docs, 
but you also, at least where screen output is present in the code where a 
user sees a visual part of the program, one has to get the copyright notice 
to display at least once after startup for the user.... 
 
For the echo record, C++ code isn't any different than any other code at this 
level of it, I suspect, but maybe we get a Copyright class?   :)
