6*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
7*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

9*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr                            Preamble
10*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
11*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
12*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrfreedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
13*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrLicense is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
14*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrsoftware--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
15*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrGeneral Public License applies to most of the Free Software
16*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrFoundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
17*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrusing it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
18*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthe GNU Lesser General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
19*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohryour programs, too.
20*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
21*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
22*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrprice.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
23*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrhave the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
24*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthis service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
25*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrif you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
26*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrin new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
27*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
28*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
29*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohranyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
30*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrThese restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
31*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrdistribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
32*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
33*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
34*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrgratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
35*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohryou have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
36*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrsource code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
37*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrrights.
38*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
39*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
40*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
41*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrdistribute and/or modify the software.
42*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
43*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
44*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthat everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
45*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrsoftware.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
46*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrwant its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
47*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthat any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
48*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrauthors' reputations.
49*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
50*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
51*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrpatents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
52*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrprogram will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
53*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrprogram proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
54*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrpatent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
55*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
56*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
57*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrmodification follow.
58*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
59*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
60*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
61*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
62*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
63*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohra notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
64*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrunder the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
65*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrrefers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
66*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrmeans either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
67*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthat is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
68*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohreither verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
69*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrlanguage.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
70*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthe term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
71*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
72*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrActivities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
73*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrcovered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
74*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrrunning the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
75*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohris covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
76*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrProgram (independent of having been made by running the Program).
77*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrWhether that is true depends on what the Program does.
78*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
79*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
80*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrsource code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
81*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrconspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
82*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrcopyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
83*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrnotices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
84*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrand give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
85*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohralong with the Program.
86*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
87*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrYou may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
88*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohryou may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
89*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
90*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
91*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrof it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
92*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrdistribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
93*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrabove, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
94*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
95*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
96*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
97*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
98*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
99*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
100*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
101*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    parties under the terms of this License.
102*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
103*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
104*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
105*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
106*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
107*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
108*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
109*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
110*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
111*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
112*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
113*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
114*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrThese requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
115*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohridentifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
116*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrand can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
117*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthemselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
118*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrsections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
119*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrdistribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
120*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohron the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
121*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthis License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
122*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrentire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
123*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
124*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrThus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
125*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohryour rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
126*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrexercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
127*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrcollective works based on the Program.
128*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
129*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrIn addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
130*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrwith the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
131*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohra storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
132*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthe scope of this License.
133*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
134*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
135*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrunder Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
136*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrSections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
137*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
138*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
139*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
140*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
141*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
142*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
143*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
144*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
145*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
146*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
147*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    customarily used for software interchange; or,
148*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
149*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
150*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
151*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
152*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    received the program in object code or executable form with such
153*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
154*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
155*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrThe source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
156*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrmaking modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
157*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrcode means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
158*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrassociated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
159*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrcontrol compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
160*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrspecial exception, the source code distributed need not include
161*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohranything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
162*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrform) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
163*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohroperating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
164*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohritself accompanies the executable.
165*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
166*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrIf distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
167*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohraccess to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
168*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohraccess to copy the source code from the same place counts as
169*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrdistribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
170*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrcompelled to copy the source along with the object code.
171*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
172*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
173*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrexcept as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
174*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrotherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
175*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrvoid, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
176*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrHowever, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
177*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthis License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
178*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrparties remain in full compliance.
179*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
180*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
181*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrsigned it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
182*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrdistribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
183*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrprohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
184*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrmodifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
185*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrProgram), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
186*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrall its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
187*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthe Program or works based on it.
188*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
189*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
190*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrProgram), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
191*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohroriginal licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
192*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthese terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
193*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrrestrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
194*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrYou are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
195*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthis License.
196*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
197*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
198*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrinfringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
199*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrconditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
200*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrotherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
201*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrexcuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
202*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrdistribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
203*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrLicense and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
204*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrmay not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
205*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrlicense would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
206*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrall those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
207*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthe only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
208*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrrefrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
209*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
210*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrIf any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
211*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrany particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
212*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrapply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
213*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrcircumstances.
214*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
215*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrIt is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
216*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrpatents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
217*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrsuch claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
218*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrintegrity of the free software distribution system, which is
219*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrimplemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
220*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrgenerous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
221*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthrough that system in reliance on consistent application of that
222*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrsystem; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
223*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrto distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
224*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrimpose that choice.
225*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
226*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrThis section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
227*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrbe a consequence of the rest of this License.
228*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
229*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
230*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrcertain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
231*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohroriginal copyright holder who places the Program under this License
232*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrmay add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
233*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthose countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
234*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrcountries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
235*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthe limitation as if written in the body of this License.
236*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
237*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
238*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrof the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
239*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrbe similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
240*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohraddress new problems or concerns.
241*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
242*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrEach version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
243*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrspecifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
244*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrlater version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
245*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohreither of that version or of any later version published by the Free
246*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrSoftware Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
247*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthis License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
248*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrFoundation.
249*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
250*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
251*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrprograms whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
252*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrto ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
253*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrSoftware Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
254*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrmake exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
255*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrof preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
256*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrof promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
257*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
258*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr                            NO WARRANTY
259*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
260*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
261*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrFOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
262*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrOTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
263*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrPROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
264*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrOR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
265*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrMERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
266*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrTO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
267*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrPROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
268*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrREPAIR OR CORRECTION.
269*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
270*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
271*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrWILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
272*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrREDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
273*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrINCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
274*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrOUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
275*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrTO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
276*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrYOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
277*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrPROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE

282*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
283*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
284*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
285*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrpossible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
286*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrfree software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
287*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
288*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
289*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrto attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
290*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrconvey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
291*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrthe "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
292*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
293*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>

306*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along
307*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc.,

309*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
310*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrAlso add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
311*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
312*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrIf the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
313*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrwhen it starts in an interactive mode:
314*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
315*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
316*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
317*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
318*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
319*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
320*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrThe hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
321*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrparts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
322*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrbe called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
323*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrmouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
324*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohr
325*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrYou should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
326*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrschool, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
327*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrnecessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:

335*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrThis General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
336*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrproprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
337*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrconsider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
338*1da41c8bSAndreas Gohrlibrary.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
339*1da41c8bSAndreas GohrPublic License instead of this License.
