% Version 2, June 1991
%
% Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
% 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
% Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
% of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
%
% PREAMBLE
%
% The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
% freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
% License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
% software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
% General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
% Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
% using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
% the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
% your programs, too.
%
% When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
% price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
% have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
% this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
% if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
% in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
%
% To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
% anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
% These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
% distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
%
% For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
% gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
% you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
% source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
% rights.
%
% We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
% (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
% distribute and/or modify the software.
%
% Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
% that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
% software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
% want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
% that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
% authors' reputations.
%
% Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
% patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
% program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
% program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
% patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
%
% The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
% modification follow.
%
% GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
% TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
%
% 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
% a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
% under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
% refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
% means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
% that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
% either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another% language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
% the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
%
% Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
% covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
% running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
% is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
% Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
% Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
%
% 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
% source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
% conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
% copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
% notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
% and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
% along with the Program.
%
% You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
% you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
%
% 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
% of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
% distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
% above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
%
% a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
% stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
%
% b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
% whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
% part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
% parties under the terms of this License.
%
% c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
% when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
% interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
% announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
% notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
% a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
% these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
% License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
% does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
% the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
%
% These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
% identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
% and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
% themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
% sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
% distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
% on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
% this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
% entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
%
% Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
% your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
% exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
% collective works based on the Program.
%
% In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
% with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
% a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
% the scope of this License.
%
% 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
% under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
% Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
%
% a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable% source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
% 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
%
% b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
% years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
% cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
% machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
% distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
% customarily used for software interchange; or,
%
% c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
% to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
% allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
% received the program in object code or executable form with such
% an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
%
% The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
% making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
% code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
% associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
% control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
% special exception, the source code distributed need not include
% anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
% form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
% operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
% itself accompanies the executable.
%
% If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
% access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
% access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
% distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
% compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
%
% 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
% except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
% otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
% void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
% However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
% this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
% parties remain in full compliance.
%
% 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
% signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
% distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
% prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
% modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
% Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
% all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
% the Program or works based on it.
%
% 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
% Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
% original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
% these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
% restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
% You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
% this License.
%
% 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
% infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
% conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
% otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
% excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
% distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
% License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
% may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
% license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
% all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
% the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
% refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.%
% If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
% any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
% apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
% circumstances.
%
% It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
% patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
% such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
% integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
% implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
% generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
% through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
% system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
% to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
% impose that choice.
%
% This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
% be a consequence of the rest of this License.
%
% 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
% certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
% original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
% may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
% those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
% countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
% the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
%
% 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
% of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
% be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
% address new problems or concerns.
%
% Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
% specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
% later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
% either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
% Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
% this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
% Foundation.
%
% 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
% programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
% to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
% Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
% make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
% of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
% of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
%
% NO WARRANTY
%
% 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
% FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
% OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
% PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
% OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
% MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
% TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
% PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
% REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
%
% 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
% WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
% REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
% INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
% OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
% TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
% YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
% PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
% POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
