Pyro is neither ShareWare nor Public Domain.  It includes a specific copyright
notice that states that it is NOT to be given away.  It is included with both
SuitCase and PowerStation, products of Software Supply.  PowerStation is a
Finder replacement that I really like, but some people don't.  I have yet to
find anyone who didn't like SuitCase.  It allows you access to Fonts, DAs, and
FKeys which are not in your System File or the current application just as
though they were installed in the System.
