Although this may seem complex, it is there to allow authors of
proprietary/commercial applications to use Tec3270 in addition
to those writing GPL'ed applications. In summary, the license is
LGPL plus a clause allowing unrestricted distribution of
application binaries. To answer a FAQ, you don't have to
distribute any source if you wish to write commercial
applications using Tec3270.
