Honestly, I think I've always referred to it as Terminate and Stay Ready; probably something I read in one of those old books that used to adorn the bookshelf of my parent's office.
Writing it brought back a lot of memories, as well - glad someone enjoyed it! It's amazing to think that we used to write programs in ways other than "I don't know how to do this" (performs google search) "I know how to do this now", but rather had to pour through books, forums (on dial-up BBSes and what qualified as equivalents in the early Internet days) and acquiring that little nugget of knowledge felt like it had so much more value, even though the reality is that the value was the same, it just took a lot more effort.
