A new alternative shell?

[Joe Caverly]

"In retrospect, I should have declined the offer, since that's not really Free software. But, I've always had a soft spot for 4DOS, since I've been a longtime user. So I helped Rex put those terms into the MIT license. That was my mistake."

In the sense that 4DOS and 4OS2 are still able to be maintained for DOS and OS/2, then this is a good thing. Free as in beer, is still better than dead.

But the idea of making it something like copyleft, might affect the work that Rex is doing with 4NT and TCC.
