     12 		       Version 2, June 1991
     13 
     14  Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
     15                           675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA
     16  Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
     17  of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
     18 
     19 			    Preamble
     20 
     21   The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
     22 freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
     23 License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
     24 software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
     25 General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
     26 Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
     27 using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
     28 the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
     29 your programs, too.
     30 
     31   When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
     32 price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
     33 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
     34 this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
     35 if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
     36 in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
     37 
     38   To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
     39 anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
     40 These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
     41 distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
     42 
     43   For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
     44 gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
     45 you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
     46 source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
     47 rights.
     48 
     49   We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
     50 (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
     51 distribute and/or modify the software.
     52 
     53   Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
     54 that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
     55 software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
     56 want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
     57 that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
     58 authors' reputations.
     59 
     60   Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
     61 patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
     62 program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
     63 program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
     64 patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
     65 
     66   The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
     67 modification follow.
     68 
     70 		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
     71    TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
     72 
     73   0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
     74 a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
     75 under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
     76 refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
     77 means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
     78 that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
     79 either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
     80 language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
     81 the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
     82 
     83 Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
     84 covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
     85 running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
     86 is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
     87 Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
     88 Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
     89 
     90   1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
     91 source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
     92 conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
     93 copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
     94 notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
     95 and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
     96 along with the Program.
     97 
     98 You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
     99 you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
    100 
    101   2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
    102 of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
    103 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
    104 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
    105 
    106     a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
    107     stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
    108 
    109     b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
    110     whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
    111     part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
    112     parties under the terms of this License.
    113 
    114     c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
    115     when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
    116     interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
    117     announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
    118     notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
    119     a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
    120     these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
    121     License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
    122     does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
    123     the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
    124 
    126 These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
    127 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
    128 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
    129 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
    130 sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
    131 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
    132 on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
    133 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
    134 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
    135 
    136 Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
    137 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
    138 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
    139 collective works based on the Program.
    140 
    141 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
    142 with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
    143 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
    144 the scope of this License.
    145 
    146   3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
    147 under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
    148 Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
    149 
    150     a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
    151     source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
    152     1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
    153 
    154     b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
    155     years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
    156     cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
    157     machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
    158     distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
    159     customarily used for software interchange; or,
    160 
    161     c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
    162     to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
    163     allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
    164     received the program in object code or executable form with such
    165     an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
    166 
    167 The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
    168 making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
    169 code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
    170 associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
    171 control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
    172 special exception, the source code distributed need not include
    173 anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
    174 form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
    175 operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
    176 itself accompanies the executable.
    177 
    178 If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
    179 access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
    180 access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
    181 distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
    182 compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
    183 
    185   4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
    186 except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
    187 otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
    188 void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
    189 However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
    190 this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
    191 parties remain in full compliance.
    192 
    193   5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
    194 signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
    195 distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
    196 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
    197 modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
    198 Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
    199 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
    200 the Program or works based on it.
    201 
    202   6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
    203 Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
    204 original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
    205 these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
    206 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
    207 You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
    208 this License.
    209 
    210   7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
    211 infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
    212 conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
    213 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
    214 excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
    215 distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
    216 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
    217 may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
    218 license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
    219 all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
    220 the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
    221 refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
    222 
    223 If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
    224 any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
    225 apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
    226 circumstances.
    227 
    228 It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
    229 patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
    230 such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
    231 integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
    232 implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
    233 generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
    234 through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
    235 system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
    236 to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
    237 impose that choice.
    238 
    239 This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
    240 be a consequence of the rest of this License.
    241 
    243   8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
    244 certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
    245 original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
    246 may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
    247 those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
    248 countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
    249 the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
    250 
    251   9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
    252 of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
    253 be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
    254 address new problems or concerns.
    255 
    256 Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
    257 specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
    258 later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
    259 either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
    260 Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
    261 this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
    262 Foundation.
    263 
    264   10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
    265 programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
    266 to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
    267 Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
    268 make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
    269 of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
    270 of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
    271 
    272 			    NO WARRANTY
    273 
    274   11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
    275 FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
    276 OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
    277 PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
    278 OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
    279 MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
    280 TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
    281 PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
    282 REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
    283 
    284   12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
    285 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
    286 REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
    287 INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
    288 OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
    289 TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
    290 YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
    291 PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
    292 POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
    293 
    294 		     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    295 
    297 	Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
    298 
    299   If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
    300 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
    301 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
    302 
    303   To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
    304 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
    305 convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
    306 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
    307 
    308     <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
    309     Copyright (C) 19yy  <name of author>
    310 
    311     This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
    312     it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
    313     the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
    314     (at your option) any later version.
    315 
    316     This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
    317     but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
    318     MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
    319     GNU General Public License for more details.
    320 
    321     You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
    322     along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
    323     Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.
    324 
    325 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
    326 
    327 If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
    328 when it starts in an interactive mode:
    329 
    330     Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19yy name of author
    331     Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
    332     This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
    333     under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
    334 
    335 The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
    336 parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
    337 be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
    338 mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
    339 
    340 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
    341 school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
    342 necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
    343 
    344   Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
    345   `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

    349 
    350 This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
    351 proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
    352 consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
    353 library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
    354 Public License instead of this License.
    355
