6*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
7*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
8*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
9*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter			    Preamble
10*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
11*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
12*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterfreedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
13*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterLicense is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
14*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertersoftware--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
15*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterGeneral Public License applies to most of the Free Software
16*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterFoundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
17*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterusing it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
18*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthe GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
19*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteryour programs, too.
20*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
21*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
22*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterprice.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
23*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterhave the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
24*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthis service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
25*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterif you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
26*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterin new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
27*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
28*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
29*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteranyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
30*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterThese restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
31*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterdistribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
32*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
33*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
34*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertergratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
35*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteryou have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
36*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertersource code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
37*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterrights.
38*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
39*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
40*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
41*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterdistribute and/or modify the software.
42*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
43*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
44*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthat everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
45*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertersoftware.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
46*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterwant its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
47*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthat any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
48*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterauthors' reputations.
49*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
50*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
51*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterpatents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
52*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterprogram will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
53*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterprogram proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
54*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterpatent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
55*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
56*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
57*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertermodification follow.
58*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
59*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
60*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
61*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
62*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
63*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertera notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
64*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterunder the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
65*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterrefers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
66*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertermeans either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
67*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthat is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
68*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertereither verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
69*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterlanguage.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
70*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthe term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
71*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
72*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterActivities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
73*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertercovered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
74*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterrunning the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
75*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteris covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
76*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterProgram (independent of having been made by running the Program).
77*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterWhether that is true depends on what the Program does.
78*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
79*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
80*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertersource code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
81*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterconspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
82*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertercopyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
83*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerternotices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
84*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterand give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
85*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteralong with the Program.
86*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
87*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterYou may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
88*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteryou may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
89*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
90*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
91*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterof it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
92*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterdistribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
93*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterabove, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
94*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
95*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
96*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
97*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
98*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
99*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
100*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
101*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    parties under the terms of this License.
102*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
103*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
104*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
105*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
106*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
107*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
108*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
109*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
110*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
111*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
112*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
113*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
114*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterThese requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
115*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteridentifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
116*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterand can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
117*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthemselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
118*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertersections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
119*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterdistribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
120*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteron the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
121*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthis License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
122*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterentire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
123*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
124*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterThus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
125*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteryour rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
126*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterexercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
127*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertercollective works based on the Program.
128*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
129*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterIn addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
130*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterwith the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
131*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertera storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
132*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthe scope of this License.
133*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
134*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
135*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterunder Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
136*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterSections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
137*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
138*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
139*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
140*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
141*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
142*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
143*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
144*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
145*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
146*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
147*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    customarily used for software interchange; or,
148*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
149*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
150*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
151*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
152*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    received the program in object code or executable form with such
153*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
154*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
155*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterThe source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
156*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertermaking modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
157*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertercode means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
158*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterassociated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
159*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertercontrol compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
160*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterspecial exception, the source code distributed need not include
161*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteranything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
162*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterform) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
163*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteroperating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
164*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteritself accompanies the executable.
165*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
166*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterIf distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
167*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteraccess to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
168*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteraccess to copy the source code from the same place counts as
169*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterdistribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
170*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertercompelled to copy the source along with the object code.
171*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
172*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
173*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterexcept as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
174*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterotherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
175*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertervoid, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
176*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterHowever, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
177*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthis License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
178*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterparties remain in full compliance.
179*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
180*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
181*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertersigned it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
182*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterdistribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
183*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterprohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
184*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertermodifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
185*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterProgram), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
186*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterall its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
187*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthe Program or works based on it.
188*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
189*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
190*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterProgram), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
191*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteroriginal licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
192*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthese terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
193*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterrestrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
194*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterYou are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
195*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthis License.
196*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
197*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
198*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterinfringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
199*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterconditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
200*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterotherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
201*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterexcuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
202*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterdistribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
203*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterLicense and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
204*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertermay not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
205*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterlicense would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
206*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterall those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
207*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthe only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
208*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterrefrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
209*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
210*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterIf any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
211*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterany particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
212*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterapply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
213*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertercircumstances.
214*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
215*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterIt is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
216*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterpatents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
217*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertersuch claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
218*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterintegrity of the free software distribution system, which is
219*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterimplemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
220*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertergenerous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
221*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthrough that system in reliance on consistent application of that
222*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertersystem; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
223*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterto distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
224*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterimpose that choice.
225*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
226*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterThis section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
227*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterbe a consequence of the rest of this License.
228*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
229*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
230*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertercertain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
231*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteroriginal copyright holder who places the Program under this License
232*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertermay add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
233*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthose countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
234*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertercountries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
235*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthe limitation as if written in the body of this License.
236*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
237*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
238*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterof the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
239*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterbe similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
240*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerteraddress new problems or concerns.
241*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
242*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterEach version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
243*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterspecifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
244*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterlater version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
245*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertereither of that version or of any later version published by the Free
246*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterSoftware Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
247*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthis License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
248*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterFoundation.
249*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
250*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
251*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterprograms whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
252*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterto ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
253*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterSoftware Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
254*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertermake exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
255*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterof preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
256*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterof promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
257*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
258*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter			    NO WARRANTY
259*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
260*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
261*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterFOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
262*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterOTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
263*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterPROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
264*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterOR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
265*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterMERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
266*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterTO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
267*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterPROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
268*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterREPAIR OR CORRECTION.
269*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
270*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
271*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterWILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
272*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterREDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
273*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterINCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
274*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterOUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
275*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterTO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
276*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterYOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
277*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterPROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
278*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterPOSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
279*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
280*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
281*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
282*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter	    How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
283*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
284*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
285*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterpossible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
286*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterfree software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
287*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
288*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
289*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterto attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
290*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterconvey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
291*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterthe "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
292*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
293*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
294*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>

296*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
297*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
298*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
299*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    (at your option) any later version.
300*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
301*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,

313*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterIf the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
314*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterwhen it starts in an interactive mode:

316*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year  name of author
317*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.

319*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
320*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
321*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterThe hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
322*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterparts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
323*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterbe called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
324*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haertermouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
325*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerter
326*fa5fcacaSAndreas HaerterYou should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
327*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerterschool, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
328*fa5fcacaSAndreas Haerternecessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
