ACtually, Ani-ST is "shareware", and was released to GEnie, for one, before
it appeared on the STart disk.  I believe that Jim Kent wanted a "smile" as
payment ...

So, no, you do not have to buy the STart disk in order to obtain the Ani-ST
program, but you may certainly do so.

Public domain programs have appeared in STart before, and are generally
marked as such.  Programs such as ST Writer may be freely copied, since
STart magazine _cannot_ hold a copyright on the material.  This does not mean
that all programs on STart are PD, most of the are not.  But in the case of
Ani-ST and ST Writer, the programs are freely distributable ...
