Ok, let's try again... 

(I just got internet at home and some things haven't been working
right).

:-)  We've found it quite useful ourselves.

I'm not too familiar with WP Reveal Codes, but yeah, I think so. What
does RC do? I found this picture:

Does it just display this or can you actually edit the "codes"?

I can't say how hard this would be, since I don't even know exactly what
RC does :-) but I can't see any reason why it's not possible.

The web page says what the license is. It's MPL/LGPL/GPL. I know that
this is functionally equivalent to MPL/LGPL. There was a reason why Alex
insisted on adding the GPL, but I can't remember what it was.

The XSLTs, which are the back-end engine, are Apache/LGPL.

Cheers,
Daniel.
