You can use SMSQ/E with Q-emuLator, but even in a hypothetical world where a 
free Q-emuLator runtime existed, there would be at least three clauses in the 
current SMSQ/E license preventing users from redistributing SMSQ/E for free 
with their SBASIC code:The SMSQ/E binary can only be distributed by 
resellersResellers need to provide support for SMSQ/EResellers need to pay 10 
euros for each copy to Tony Tebby In other words, to distribute a free SMSQ/E 
runtime with your program, you would need to first register as a reseller (the 
easy part), cover for the 10 euros for each copy out of your pocket, and be on 
the hook to provide SMSQ/E support even though you are giving it away for free.
