I was not aware that ST TERM had been released into the Public Domain.
As a FoReM ST SysOp, I do know that ST TERM comes ONLY on the FoReM
disk.  It is intended to be run from inside of FoReM by the SysOp.

Last I heard, it was NOT Public Domain, but was not commercial either.
I'll check with the other FoReM SysOps I know and see what they say.
