6*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
7*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

9*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed                            Preamble
10*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
11*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
12*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedfreedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
13*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedLicense is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
14*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedsoftware--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
15*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedGeneral Public License applies to most of the Free Software
16*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedFoundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
17*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedusing it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
18*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthe GNU Lesser General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
19*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedyour programs, too.
20*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
21*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
22*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedprice.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
23*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedhave the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
24*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthis service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
25*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedif you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
26*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedin new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
27*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
28*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
29*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedanyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
30*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedThese restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
31*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeeddistribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
32*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
33*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
34*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedgratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
35*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedyou have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
36*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedsource code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
37*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedrights.
38*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
39*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
40*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
41*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeeddistribute and/or modify the software.
42*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
43*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
44*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthat everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
45*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedsoftware.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
46*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedwant its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
47*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthat any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
48*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedauthors' reputations.
49*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
50*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
51*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedpatents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
52*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedprogram will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
53*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedprogram proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
54*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedpatent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
55*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
56*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
57*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedmodification follow.
58*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
59*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
60*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
61*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
62*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
63*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeeda notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
64*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedunder the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
65*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedrefers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
66*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedmeans either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
67*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthat is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
68*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedeither verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
69*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedlanguage.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
70*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthe term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
71*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
72*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedActivities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
73*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedcovered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
74*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedrunning the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
75*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedis covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
76*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedProgram (independent of having been made by running the Program).
77*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedWhether that is true depends on what the Program does.
78*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
79*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
80*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedsource code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
81*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedconspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
82*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedcopyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
83*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeednotices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
84*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedand give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
85*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedalong with the Program.
86*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
87*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedYou may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
88*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedyou may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
89*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
90*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
91*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedof it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
92*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeeddistribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
93*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedabove, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
94*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
95*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
96*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
97*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
98*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
99*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
100*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
101*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    parties under the terms of this License.
102*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
103*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
104*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
105*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
106*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
107*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
108*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
109*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
110*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
111*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
112*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
113*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
114*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedThese requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
115*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedidentifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
116*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedand can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
117*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthemselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
118*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedsections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
119*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeeddistribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
120*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedon the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
121*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthis License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
122*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedentire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
123*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
124*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedThus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
125*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedyour rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
126*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedexercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
127*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedcollective works based on the Program.
128*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
129*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedIn addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
130*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedwith the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
131*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeeda storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
132*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthe scope of this License.
133*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
134*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
135*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedunder Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
136*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedSections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
137*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
138*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
139*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
140*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
141*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
142*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
143*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
144*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
145*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
146*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
147*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    customarily used for software interchange; or,
148*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
149*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
150*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
151*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
152*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    received the program in object code or executable form with such
153*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
154*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
155*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedThe source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
156*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedmaking modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
157*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedcode means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
158*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedassociated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
159*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedcontrol compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
160*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedspecial exception, the source code distributed need not include
161*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedanything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
162*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedform) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
163*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedoperating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
164*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeeditself accompanies the executable.
165*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
166*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedIf distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
167*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedaccess to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
168*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedaccess to copy the source code from the same place counts as
169*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeeddistribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
170*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedcompelled to copy the source along with the object code.
171*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
172*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
173*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedexcept as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
174*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedotherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
175*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedvoid, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
176*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedHowever, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
177*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthis License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
178*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedparties remain in full compliance.
179*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
180*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
181*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedsigned it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
182*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeeddistribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
183*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedprohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
184*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedmodifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
185*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedProgram), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
186*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedall its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
187*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthe Program or works based on it.
188*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
189*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
190*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedProgram), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
191*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedoriginal licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
192*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthese terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
193*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedrestrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
194*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedYou are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
195*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthis License.
196*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
197*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
198*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedinfringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
199*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedconditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
200*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedotherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
201*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedexcuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
202*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeeddistribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
203*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedLicense and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
204*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedmay not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
205*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedlicense would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
206*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedall those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
207*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthe only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
208*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedrefrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
209*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
210*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedIf any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
211*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedany particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
212*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedapply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
213*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedcircumstances.
214*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
215*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedIt is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
216*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedpatents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
217*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedsuch claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
218*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedintegrity of the free software distribution system, which is
219*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedimplemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
220*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedgenerous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
221*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthrough that system in reliance on consistent application of that
222*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedsystem; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
223*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedto distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
224*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedimpose that choice.
225*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
226*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedThis section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
227*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedbe a consequence of the rest of this License.
228*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
229*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
230*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedcertain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
231*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedoriginal copyright holder who places the Program under this License
232*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedmay add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
233*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthose countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
234*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedcountries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
235*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthe limitation as if written in the body of this License.
236*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
237*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
238*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedof the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
239*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedbe similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
240*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedaddress new problems or concerns.
241*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
242*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedEach version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
243*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedspecifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
244*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedlater version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
245*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedeither of that version or of any later version published by the Free
246*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedSoftware Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
247*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthis License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
248*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedFoundation.
249*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
250*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
251*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedprograms whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
252*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedto ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
253*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedSoftware Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
254*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedmake exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
255*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedof preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
256*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedof promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
257*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
258*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed                            NO WARRANTY
259*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
260*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
261*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedFOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
262*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedOTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
263*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedPROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
264*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedOR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
265*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedMERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
266*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedTO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
267*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedPROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
268*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedREPAIR OR CORRECTION.
269*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
270*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
271*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedWILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
272*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedREDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
273*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedINCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
274*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedOUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
275*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedTO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
276*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedYOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
277*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedPROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE

282*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
283*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
284*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
285*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedpossible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
286*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedfree software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
287*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
288*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
289*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedto attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
290*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedconvey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
291*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedthe "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
292*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
293*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>

306*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along
307*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc.,

309*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
310*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedAlso add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
311*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
312*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedIf the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
313*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedwhen it starts in an interactive mode:
314*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
315*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
316*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
317*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
318*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
319*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
320*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedThe hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
321*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedparts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
322*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedbe called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
323*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedmouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
324*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed
325*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedYou should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
326*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedschool, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
327*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeednecessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:

329*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
330*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeed  `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

335*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedThis General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
336*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedproprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
337*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedconsider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
338*b10b6b5fSSyntaxSeedlibrary.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
