Dick,
startx and xinitrc come from the X Window System Sample Implementation
tree that follows the rule of including a license at the top of each
file; these two files did not have a license in that tree, so they do
not have a license in this package.
startxwin.bat, startxwin.sh, and startxdmcp.bat originate from this
project and have similarly never had a license.
The "run" utility was written by "Charles S. Wilson", and is licensed
under the "GNU General Public License" as you can see from downloading
the source package and looking at the top of
/usr/src/x-startup-scripts-1.0.6/run/run.c.
Hope that helps,
Harold
