By contrast, the GNU General Public -License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change all versions of a program ---to make sure it remains free software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, -use the GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to any other work -released this way by its authors. You can apply it to your programs, too. - -When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public -Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free -software (and charge for them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if -you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs, -and that you know you can do these things. - -To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you these rights or asking -you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have certain responsibilities if you distribute -copies of the software, or if you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others. - -For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you -must pass on to the recipients the same freedoms that you received. You must make sure that -they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they -know their rights. - -Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps: (1) assert copyright on -the software, and (2) offer you this License giving you legal permission to copy, distribute -and/or modify it. - -For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains that there is no -warranty for this free software. For both users' and authors' sake, the GPL requires -that modified versions be marked as changed, so that their problems will not be attributed -erroneously to authors of previous versions. - -Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run modified versions of the -software inside them, although the manufacturer can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible -with the aim of protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic pattern of -such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to use, which is precisely where -it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit -the practice for those products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we -stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions of the GPL, as -needed to protect the freedom of users. - -Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. States should not allow -patents to restrict development and use of software on general-purpose computers, but in -those that do, we wish to avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program -could make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that patents cannot -be used to render the program non-free. - -The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow. -TERMS AND CONDITIONS -0. Definitions. - -ÒThis LicenseÓ refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License. - -ÒCopyrightÓ also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of works, such as -semiconductor masks. - -ÒThe ProgramÓ refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this License. Each licensee -is addressed as ÒyouÓ. ÒLicenseesÓ and ÒrecipientsÓ may be individuals or organizations. - -To ÒmodifyÓ a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work in a fashion -requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an exact copy. The resulting -work is called a Òmodified versionÓ of the earlier work or a work Òbased onÓ the earlier -work. - -A Òcovered workÓ means either the unmodified Program or a work based on the Program. - -To ÒpropagateÓ a work means to do anything with it that, without permission, would make -you directly or secondarily liable for infringement under applicable copyright law, except -executing it on a computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying, -distribution (with or without modification), making available to the public, and in some -countries other activities as well. - -To ÒconveyÓ a work means any kind of propagation that enables other parties to make or -receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through a computer network, with no transfer -of a copy, is not conveying. - -An interactive user interface displays ÒAppropriate Legal NoticesÓ to the extent that it -includes a convenient and prominently visible feature that (1) displays an appropriate -copyright notice, and (2) tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except -to the extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the work under -this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If the interface presents a list -of user commands or options, such as a menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion. - -1. Source Code. - -The Òsource codeÓ for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. -ÒObject codeÓ means any non-source form of a work. - -A ÒStandard InterfaceÓ means an interface that either is an official standard defined by a -recognized standards body, or, in the case of interfaces specified for a particular programming -language, one that is widely used among developers working in that language. - -The ÒSystem LibrariesÓ of an executable work include anything, other than the work as a whole, -that (a) is included in the normal form of packaging a Major Component, but which is not part -of that Major Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that Major Component, -or to implement a Standard Interface for which an implementation is available to the public in -source code form. A ÒMajor ComponentÓ, in this context, means a major essential component -(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system (if any) on which the -executable work runs, or a compiler used to produce the work, or an object code interpreter used -to run it. - -The ÒCorresponding SourceÓ for a work in object code form means all the source code needed to -generate, install, and (for an executable work) run the object code and to modify the work, -including scripts to control those activities. However, it does not include the work's System -Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free programs which are used -unmodified in performing those activities but which are not part of the work. For example, -Corresponding Source includes interface definition files associated with source files for -the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically linked subprograms that -the work is specifically designed to require, such as by intimate data communication or control -flow between those subprograms and other parts of the work. - -The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can regenerate automatically from -other parts of the Corresponding Source. - -The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same work. - -2. Basic Permissions. - -All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of copyright on the Program, -and are irrevocable provided the stated conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms -your unlimited permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a covered -work is covered by this License only if the output, given its content, constitutes a covered -work. This License acknowledges your rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided -by copyright law. - -You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey, without conditions -so long as your license otherwise remains in force. You may convey covered works to others -for the sole purpose of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you -with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with the terms of this -License in conveying all material for which you do not control copyright. Those thus -making or running the covered works for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, -under your direction and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of -your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you. - -Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the conditions stated below. -Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 makes it unnecessary. - -3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law. - -No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological measure under any applicable -law fulfilling obligations under article 11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December -1996, or similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such measures. - -When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid circumvention of -technological measures to the extent such circumvention is effected by exercising rights -under this License with respect to the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to -limit operation or modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's -users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of technological measures. - -4. Conveying Verbatim Copies. - -You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, -provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate -copyright notice; keep intact all notices stating that this License and any non-permissive -terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code; keep intact all notices of the -absence of any warranty; and give all recipients a copy of this License along with the Program. - -You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, and you may offer support -or warranty protection for a fee. - -5. Conveying Modified Source Versions. - -You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to produce it from the Program, -in the form of source code under the terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of -these conditions: - - * a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified it, and giving a relevant - date. - * b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is released under this License and - any conditions added under section 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 - to Òkeep intact all noticesÓ. - * c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this License to anyone who comes - into possession of a copy. This License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section - 7 additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts, regardless of how they are - packaged. This License gives no permission to license the work in any other way, but it does - not invalidate such permission if you have separately received it. - * d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display Appropriate Legal Notices; - however, if the Program has interactive interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, - your work need not make them do so. - -A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent works, which are not by their -nature extensions of the covered work, and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger -program, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an ÒaggregateÓ if the -compilation and its resulting copyright are not used to limit the access or legal rights of the -compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work in an -aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other parts of the aggregate. - -6. Conveying Non-Source Forms. - -You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of sections 4 and 5, provided that -you also convey the machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, in one -of these ways: - - * a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including a physical - distribution medium), accompanied by the Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical - medium customarily used for software interchange. - * b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product (including a physical - distribution medium), accompanied by a written offer, valid for at least three years and - valid for as long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product model, to - give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a copy of the Corresponding Source - for all the software in the product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical - medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no more than your reasonable - cost of physically performing this conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the Corresponding - Source from a network server at no charge. - * c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the written offer to provide - the Corresponding Source. This alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, - and only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord with subsection 6b. - * d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated place (gratis or for a charge), - and offer equivalent access to the Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place - at no further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the Corresponding Source along - with the object code. If the place to copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding - Source may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party) that supports equivalent - copying facilities, provided you maintain clear directions next to the object code saying where - to find the Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the Corresponding Source, - you remain obligated to ensure that it is available for as long as needed to satisfy these - requirements. - * e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided you inform other peers - where the object code and Corresponding Source of the work are being offered to the general - public at no charge under subsection 6d. - -A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded from the Corresponding Source -as a System Library, need not be included in conveying the object code work. - -A ÒUser ProductÓ is either (1) a Òconsumer productÓ, which means any tangible personal property which -is normally used for personal, family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for -incorporation into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product, doubtful -cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular product received by a particular -user, Ònormally usedÓ refers to a typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of -the status of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user actually uses, or -expects or is expected to use, the product. A product is a consumer product regardless of whether -the product has substantial commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent -the only significant mode of use of the product. - -ÒInstallation InformationÓ for a User Product means any methods, procedures, authorization keys, -or other information required to install and execute modified versions of a covered work in that -User Product from a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must suffice to -ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object code is in no case prevented or -interfered with solely because modification has been made. - -If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or specifically for use in, a -User Product, and the conveying occurs as part of a transaction in which the right of possession -and use of the User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a fixed term -(regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the Corresponding Source conveyed under -this section must be accompanied by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not -apply if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install modified object code on -the User Product (for example, the work has been installed in ROM). - -The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a requirement to continue -to provide support service, warranty, or updates for a work that has been modified or installed -by the recipient, or for the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to -a network may be denied when the modification itself materially and adversely affects the operation -of the network or violates the rules and protocols for communication across the network. - -Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, in accord with this section -must be in a format that is publicly documented (and with an implementation available to the public -in source code form), and must require no special password or key for unpacking, reading or copying. - -7. Additional Terms. - -ÒAdditional permissionsÓ are terms that supplement the terms of this License by making exceptions -from one or more of its conditions. Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program -shall be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent that they are valid -under applicable law. If additional permissions apply only to part of the Program, that part may -be used separately under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by this License -without regard to the additional permissions. - -When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option remove any additional permissions -from that copy, or from any part of it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their -own removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place additional permissions on -material, added by you to a covered work, for which you have or can give appropriate copyright -permission. - -Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you add to a covered work, -you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of that material) supplement the terms of this -License with terms: - - * a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the terms of sections 15 - and 16 of this License; or - * b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or author attributions in - that material or in the Appropriate Legal Notices displayed by works containing it; or - * c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or requiring that - modified versions of such material be marked in reasonable ways as different from the - original version; or - * d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or authors of the - material; or - * e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some trade names, trademarks, - or service marks; or - * f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that material by anyone who - conveys the material (or modified versions of it) with contractual assumptions of liability - to the recipient, for any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on - those licensors and authors. - -All other non-permissive additional terms are considered Òfurther restrictionsÓ within the meaning -of section 10. If the Program as you received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that -it is governed by this License along with a term that is a further restriction, you may remove that -term. If a license document contains a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying -under this License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms of that license -document, provided that the further restriction does not survive such relicensing or conveying. - -If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you must place, in the relevant -source files, a statement of the additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating -where to find the applicable terms. - -Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the form of a separately written -license, or stated as exceptions; the above requirements apply either way. - -8. Termination. - -You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly provided under this License. -Any attempt otherwise to propagate or modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your -rights under this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third paragraph of -section 11). - -However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license from a particular -copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder -explicitly and finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder -fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation. - -Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated permanently if the -copyright holder notifies you of the violation by some reasonable means, this is the first -time you have received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that copyright -holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after your receipt of the notice. - -Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the licenses of parties who -have received copies or rights from you under this License. If your rights have been terminated -and not permanently reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same material -under section 10. - -9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies. - -You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run a copy of the Program. -Ancillary propagation of a covered work occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer -transmission to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However, nothing other -than this License grants you permission to propagate or modify any covered work. These actions -infringe copyright if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a -covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so. - -10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients. - -Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically receives a license from the -original licensors, to run, modify and propagate that work, subject to this License. You are -not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License. - -An Òentity transactionÓ is a transaction transferring control of an organization, or substantially -all assets of one, or subdividing an organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of -a covered work results from an entity transaction, each party to that transaction who receives -a copy of the work also receives whatever licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest -had or could give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the Corresponding -Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if the predecessor has it or can get it -with reasonable efforts. - -You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the rights granted or affirmed -under this License. For example, you may not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for -exercise of rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation (including a -cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that any patent claim is infringed by making, -using, selling, offering for sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it. - -11. Patents. - -A ÒcontributorÓ is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this License of the Program or a -work on which the Program is based. The work thus licensed is called the contributor's -Òcontributor versionÓ. - -A contributor's Òessential patent claimsÓ are all patent claims owned or controlled by the -contributor, whether already acquired or hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some -manner, permitted by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version, but -do not include claims that would be infringed only as a consequence of further modification of -the contributor version. For purposes of this definition, ÒcontrolÓ includes the right to grant -patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of this License. - -Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent license under the -contributor's essential patent claims, to make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise -run, modify and propagate the contents of its contributor version. - -In the following three paragraphs, a Òpatent licenseÓ is any express agreement or commitment, -however denominated, not to enforce a patent (such as an express permission to practice a -patent or covenant not to sue for patent infringement). To ÒgrantÓ such a patent license to -a party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a patent against the party. - -If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, and the Corresponding Source -of the work is not available for anyone to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this -License, through a publicly available network server or other readily accessible means, -then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so available, or (2) arrange -to deprive yourself of the benefit of the patent license for this particular work, or (3) -arrange, in a manner consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent -license to downstream recipients. ÒKnowingly relyingÓ means you have actual knowledge that, -but for the patent license, your conveying the covered work in a country, or your recipient's -use of the covered work in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that -country that you have reason to believe are valid. - -If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or arrangement, you convey, or -propagate by procuring conveyance of, a covered work, and grant a patent license to some -of the parties receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify or -convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license you grant is automatically -extended to all recipients of the covered work and works based on it. - -A patent license is ÒdiscriminatoryÓ if it does not include within the scope of its coverage, -prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights -that are specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered work if you are -a party to an arrangement with a third party that is in the business of distributing software, -under which you make payment to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying -the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the parties who would receive the -covered work from you, a discriminatory patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered -work conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily for and in connection -with specific products or compilations that contain the covered work, unless you entered into -that arrangement, or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007. - -Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting any implied license or other -defenses to infringement that may otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law. - -12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom. - -If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict -the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If -you cannot convey a covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this -License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not convey it at all. -For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you to collect a royalty for further conveying -from those to whom you convey the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and -this License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program. - -13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License. - -Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have permission to link or combine any -covered work with a work licensed under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into -a single combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this License will continue -to apply to the part which is the covered work, but the special requirements of the GNU Affero -General Public License, section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the -combination as such. - -14. Revised Versions of this License. - -The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the GNU General Public -License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, -but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. - -Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies that a certain -numbered version of the GNU General Public License Òor any later versionÓ applies to it, you have -the option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered version or of any later -version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version -number of the GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free -Software Foundation. - -If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of the GNU General Public -License can be used, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of a version permanently -authorizes you to choose that version for the Program. - -Later license versions may give you additional or different permissions. However, no additional -obligations are imposed on any author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow -a later version. - -15. Disclaimer of Warranty. - -THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN -OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM -ÒAS ISÓ WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, -THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK -AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, -YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. - -16. Limitation of Liability. - -IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, -OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU -FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF -THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING -RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO -OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE -POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. - -17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16. - -If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided above cannot be given local -legal effect according to their terms, reviewing courts shall apply local law that most -closely approximates an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the Program, -unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a copy of the Program in return -for a fee. - -END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS -How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs - -If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, -the best way to achieve this is to make it free software which everyone can redistribute and -change under these terms. - -To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them to the -start of each source file to most effectively state the exclusion of warranty; and each -file should have at least the ÒcopyrightÓ line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. - - <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> - Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> - - This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify - it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by - the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or - (at your option) any later version. - - This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, - but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of - MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the - GNU General Public License for more details. - - You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License - along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. - -Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. - -If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short notice like this when it -starts in an interactive mode: - - <program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> - This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. - This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it - under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. - -The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate parts of the -General Public License. Of course, your program's commands might be different; for a GUI -interface, you would use an Òabout boxÓ. - -You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school, if any, to sign -a Òcopyright disclaimerÓ for the program, if necessary. For more information on this, and -how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. - -The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary -programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit -linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the -GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this License. But first, please read -<http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>. |
