 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
1a1fb6
 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
                            Preamble
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
1a1fb6
freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
1a1fb6
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
1a1fb6
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
1a1fb6
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
1a1fb6
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
1a1fb6
using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
1a1fb6
the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
1a1fb6
your programs, too.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
1a1fb6
price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
1a1fb6
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
1a1fb6
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
1a1fb6
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
1a1fb6
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
1a1fb6
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
1a1fb6
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
1a1fb6
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
1a1fb6
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
1a1fb6
you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
1a1fb6
source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
1a1fb6
rights.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
1a1fb6
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
1a1fb6
distribute and/or modify the software.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
1a1fb6
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
1a1fb6
software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
1a1fb6
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
1a1fb6
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
1a1fb6
authors' reputations.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
1a1fb6
patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
1a1fb6
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
1a1fb6
program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
1a1fb6
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
1a1fb6
modification follow.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
1a1fb6
   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
1a1fb6
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
1a1fb6
under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
1a1fb6
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
1a1fb6
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
1a1fb6
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
1a1fb6
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
1a1fb6
language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
1a1fb6
the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
1a1fb6
covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
1a1fb6
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
1a1fb6
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
1a1fb6
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
1a1fb6
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
1a1fb6
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
1a1fb6
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
1a1fb6
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
1a1fb6
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
1a1fb6
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
1a1fb6
along with the Program.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
1a1fb6
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
1a1fb6
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
1a1fb6
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
1a1fb6
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
1a1fb6
    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
1a1fb6
    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
1a1fb6
    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
1a1fb6
    parties under the terms of this License.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
1a1fb6
    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
1a1fb6
    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
1a1fb6
    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
1a1fb6
    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
1a1fb6
    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
1a1fb6
    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
1a1fb6
    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
1a1fb6
    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
1a1fb6
    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
1a1fb6
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
1a1fb6
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
1a1fb6
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
1a1fb6
sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
1a1fb6
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
1a1fb6
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
1a1fb6
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
1a1fb6
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
1a1fb6
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
1a1fb6
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
1a1fb6
collective works based on the Program.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
1a1fb6
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
1a1fb6
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
1a1fb6
the scope of this License.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
1a1fb6
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
1a1fb6
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
1a1fb6
    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
1a1fb6
    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
1a1fb6
    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
1a1fb6
    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
1a1fb6
    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
1a1fb6
    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
1a1fb6
    customarily used for software interchange; or,
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
1a1fb6
    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
1a1fb6
    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
1a1fb6
    received the program in object code or executable form with such
1a1fb6
    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
1a1fb6
making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
1a1fb6
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
1a1fb6
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
1a1fb6
control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
1a1fb6
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
1a1fb6
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
1a1fb6
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
1a1fb6
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
1a1fb6
itself accompanies the executable.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
1a1fb6
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
1a1fb6
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
1a1fb6
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
1a1fb6
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
1a1fb6
except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
1a1fb6
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
1a1fb6
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
1a1fb6
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
1a1fb6
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
1a1fb6
parties remain in full compliance.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
1a1fb6
signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
1a1fb6
distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
1a1fb6
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
1a1fb6
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
1a1fb6
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
1a1fb6
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
1a1fb6
the Program or works based on it.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
1a1fb6
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
1a1fb6
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
1a1fb6
these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
1a1fb6
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
1a1fb6
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
1a1fb6
this License.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
1a1fb6
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
1a1fb6
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
1a1fb6
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
1a1fb6
excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
1a1fb6
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
1a1fb6
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
1a1fb6
may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
1a1fb6
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
1a1fb6
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
1a1fb6
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
1a1fb6
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
1a1fb6
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
1a1fb6
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
1a1fb6
circumstances.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
1a1fb6
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
1a1fb6
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
1a1fb6
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
1a1fb6
implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
1a1fb6
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
1a1fb6
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
1a1fb6
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
1a1fb6
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
1a1fb6
impose that choice.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
1a1fb6
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
1a1fb6
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
1a1fb6
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
1a1fb6
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
1a1fb6
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
1a1fb6
countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
1a1fb6
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
1a1fb6
of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
1a1fb6
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
1a1fb6
address new problems or concerns.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
1a1fb6
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
1a1fb6
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
1a1fb6
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
1a1fb6
Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
1a1fb6
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
1a1fb6
Foundation.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
1a1fb6
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
1a1fb6
to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
1a1fb6
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
1a1fb6
make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
1a1fb6
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
1a1fb6
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
                            NO WARRANTY
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
1a1fb6
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
1a1fb6
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
1a1fb6
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
1a1fb6
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
1a1fb6
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
1a1fb6
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
1a1fb6
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
1a1fb6
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
1a1fb6
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
1a1fb6
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
1a1fb6
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
1a1fb6
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
1a1fb6
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
1a1fb6
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
1a1fb6
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
1a1fb6
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
1a1fb6
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
1a1fb6
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
1a1fb6
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
1a1fb6
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
1a1fb6
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
1a1fb6
    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
1a1fb6
    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
1a1fb6
    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
1a1fb6
    (at your option) any later version.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
1a1fb6
    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
1a1fb6
    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
1a1fb6
    GNU General Public License for more details.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along
1a1fb6
    with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc.,
1a1fb6
    51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
1a1fb6
when it starts in an interactive mode:
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
1a1fb6
    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
1a1fb6
    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
1a1fb6
    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
1a1fb6
parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
1a1fb6
be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
1a1fb6
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
1a1fb6
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
1a1fb6
necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
1a1fb6
1a1fb6
  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
1a1fb6
  `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

1a1fb6
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
1a1fb6
proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
1a1fb6
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
1a1fb6
library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
1a1fb6
Public License instead of this License.
