6*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
7*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
8*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
9*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed			    Preamble
10*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
11*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
12*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedfreedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
13*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedLicense is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
14*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedsoftware--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
15*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedGeneral Public License applies to most of the Free Software
16*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedFoundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
17*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedusing it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
18*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthe GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
19*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedyour programs, too.
20*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
21*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
22*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedprice.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
23*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedhave the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
24*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthis service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
25*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedif you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
26*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedin new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
27*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
28*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
29*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedanyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
30*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedThese restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
31*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseeddistribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
32*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
33*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
34*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedgratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
35*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedyou have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
36*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedsource code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
37*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedrights.
38*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
39*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
40*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
41*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseeddistribute and/or modify the software.
42*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
43*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
44*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthat everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
45*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedsoftware.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
46*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedwant its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
47*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthat any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
48*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedauthors' reputations.
49*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
50*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
51*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedpatents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
52*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedprogram will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
53*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedprogram proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
54*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedpatent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
55*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
56*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
57*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedmodification follow.
58*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
59*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
60*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
61*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
62*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
63*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseeda notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
64*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedunder the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
65*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedrefers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
66*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedmeans either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
67*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthat is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
68*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedeither verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
69*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedlanguage.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
70*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthe term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
71*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
72*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedActivities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
73*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedcovered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
74*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedrunning the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
75*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedis covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
76*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedProgram (independent of having been made by running the Program).
77*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedWhether that is true depends on what the Program does.
78*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
79*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
80*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedsource code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
81*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedconspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
82*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedcopyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
83*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseednotices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
84*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedand give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
85*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedalong with the Program.
86*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
87*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedYou may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
88*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedyou may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
89*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
90*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
91*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedof it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
92*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseeddistribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
93*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedabove, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
94*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
95*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
96*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
97*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
98*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
99*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
100*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
101*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    parties under the terms of this License.
102*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
103*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
104*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
105*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
106*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
107*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
108*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
109*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
110*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
111*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
112*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
113*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
114*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedThese requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
115*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedidentifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
116*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedand can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
117*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthemselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
118*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedsections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
119*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseeddistribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
120*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedon the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
121*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthis License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
122*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedentire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
123*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
124*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedThus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
125*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedyour rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
126*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedexercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
127*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedcollective works based on the Program.
128*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
129*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedIn addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
130*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedwith the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
131*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseeda storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
132*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthe scope of this License.
133*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
134*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
135*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedunder Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
136*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedSections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
137*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
138*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
139*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
140*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
141*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
142*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
143*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
144*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
145*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
146*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
147*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    customarily used for software interchange; or,
148*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
149*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
150*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
151*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
152*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    received the program in object code or executable form with such
153*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
154*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
155*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedThe source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
156*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedmaking modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
157*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedcode means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
158*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedassociated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
159*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedcontrol compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
160*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedspecial exception, the source code distributed need not include
161*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedanything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
162*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedform) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
163*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedoperating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
164*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseeditself accompanies the executable.
165*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
166*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedIf distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
167*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedaccess to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
168*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedaccess to copy the source code from the same place counts as
169*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseeddistribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
170*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedcompelled to copy the source along with the object code.
171*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
172*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
173*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedexcept as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
174*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedotherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
175*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedvoid, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
176*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedHowever, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
177*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthis License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
178*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedparties remain in full compliance.
179*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
180*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
181*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedsigned it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
182*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseeddistribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
183*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedprohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
184*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedmodifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
185*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedProgram), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
186*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedall its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
187*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthe Program or works based on it.
188*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
189*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
190*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedProgram), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
191*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedoriginal licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
192*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthese terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
193*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedrestrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
194*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedYou are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
195*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthis License.
196*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
197*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
198*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedinfringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
199*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedconditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
200*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedotherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
201*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedexcuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
202*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseeddistribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
203*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedLicense and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
204*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedmay not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
205*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedlicense would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
206*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedall those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
207*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthe only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
208*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedrefrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
209*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
210*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedIf any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
211*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedany particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
212*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedapply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
213*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedcircumstances.
214*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
215*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedIt is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
216*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedpatents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
217*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedsuch claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
218*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedintegrity of the free software distribution system, which is
219*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedimplemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
220*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedgenerous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
221*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthrough that system in reliance on consistent application of that
222*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedsystem; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
223*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedto distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
224*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedimpose that choice.
225*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
226*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedThis section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
227*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedbe a consequence of the rest of this License.
228*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
229*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
230*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedcertain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
231*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedoriginal copyright holder who places the Program under this License
232*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedmay add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
233*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthose countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
234*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedcountries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
235*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthe limitation as if written in the body of this License.
236*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
237*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
238*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedof the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
239*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedbe similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
240*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedaddress new problems or concerns.
241*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
242*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedEach version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
243*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedspecifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
244*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedlater version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
245*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedeither of that version or of any later version published by the Free
246*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedSoftware Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
247*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthis License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
248*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedFoundation.
249*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
250*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
251*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedprograms whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
252*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedto ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
253*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedSoftware Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
254*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedmake exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
255*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedof preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
256*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedof promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
257*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
258*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed			    NO WARRANTY
259*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
260*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
261*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedFOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
262*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedOTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
263*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedPROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
264*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedOR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
265*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedMERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
266*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedTO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
267*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedPROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
268*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedREPAIR OR CORRECTION.
269*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
270*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
271*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedWILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
272*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedREDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
273*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedINCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
274*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedOUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
275*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedTO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
276*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedYOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
277*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedPROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
278*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedPOSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
279*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
280*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
281*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
282*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed	    How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
283*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
284*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
285*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedpossible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
286*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedfree software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
287*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
288*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
289*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedto attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
290*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedconvey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
291*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedthe "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
292*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
293*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
294*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
295*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
296*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
297*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
298*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or

300*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
301*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,

313*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedIf the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
314*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedwhen it starts in an interactive mode:
315*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
316*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year  name of author
317*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
318*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
319*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
320*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
321*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedThe hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
322*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedparts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
323*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedbe called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
324*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedmouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
325*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseed
326*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedYou should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
327*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedschool, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
328*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseednecessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:

337*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedproprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
338*4b3ddbf5SSyntaxseedconsider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
