   I doubt this. Look at TeX. ``Usually well informed sources'' told me
   that its code is used in several places (ie, in several commercial
   systems) without having the author asked for. And there *is* a

Upon my inquiries regarding that copyright, and its consequences on
derivative versions (such as Ctex) many years ago, DEK released a statement
indicating that TeX sources were considered Public Domain. End of Story.
