This is only true if Hercules SDL is dynamically creating the
interface on Linux or perhaps some other platforms.? If the
interface is created outside of Hercules these privileges are not
required.
This ability was brought over from the original Hyperion system
from which SDL Hercules was cloned.
To my knowledge, which is not close to the details any more, I
will admit, this might have changed in SDL Hercules.
This is not to say this specific environment does not require
privileged access, just that it is not always required,
as far as I know.? I am happily corrected if this is no longer the
case.
