There is no problem using it on Linux. The license is not exactly Open
Source, it's "Open Source Friendly". Anybody can download it for their own
use or their company's internal use without a license, and it can be included
without license in Open Source operating system distributions such as Linux,
FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD, and in fact you find C-Kermit included in some
of them already. More would be better.
