[OT?] GCC License

[Rafal 'Raf256' Maj]

Hello,
This question is mostly about C Compilers, not C itself,
I couldnt find a better news group for this question (apart from
gnu.gcc.help)

I have written a small application using GCC (+MinGW), and now I want to
sell license for using it (for commercial purposes) to other firm.
Is this 100% legal? Do I have to put inside program license information
about using this compiler in this program? Have I to put this information
somewhere inside program (that users will see it), etc?

You have posted your question to at least one better place than here,
comp.os.msdos.djgpp. The gnu.* newsgroups are a good choice, as are the
cygwin and MinGW mailing lists. comp.lang.c is a very poor choice. Your
question has nothing to do with C, and that's all we do here.

Not quite true: you bothered to find the OP some other newsgroups - not C
related either.

Programs you write with GNU CC are not covered under the GPL explicitly.

So yes, you can sell the application.
