[Question] Is TempleOS free software? #10

Question: Aye, is TempleOS free software?

Also, I noticed the README stated HolyC as the C++ dialect, is that also all free software?

I believe Terry Davis (who is now deceased) made all his code relating to TempleOS and HolyC in the public domain. The website https://templeos.org/ states:

All content related to Terry A. Davis, TempleOS, J Operating System, SparrowOS, or LoseThos should be considered public domain.

So, yes, TempleOS and the HolyC language and compiler are free/libre software, and additionally, public domain.

Indeed, everything is public domain, including the entirety of this repo.
