I can't believe this guy.  I know what he's trying to tell me here, I was just
using the term "OS" loosely.  Why do some ppl not read past wording choice?  I
mean, I'm not going to define what an OS really is every time I talk about
something.  Blah.

PS - Yeah, I know how big of a guru Richard Stallman is, but I still
"semi-flaimed" him.  I don't care if yer the pope.  I'm not going to take taht
kind of down talk.

    It's written in C and runs on Linux.  I
    haven't tested it on other systems, but I have reason to believe it would run
    on most *IX OSes

Many people speak of Linux as the name of an operating system, but
this isn't really right.  Linux is actually a kernel.  Please see
http://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html for an explanation.
