Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
8
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

Preamble
11
12
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
13
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
14
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
15
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
16
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
17
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
18
using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
19
the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
20
your programs, too.
21
22
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
23
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
24
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
25
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
26
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
27
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
28
29
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
30
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
31
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
32
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
33
34
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
35
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
36
you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
37
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
38
rights.
39
40
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
41
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
42
distribute and/or modify the software.
43
44
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
45
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
46
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
47
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
48
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
49
authors' reputations.
50
51
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
52
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
53
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
54
program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
55
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
56
57
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
58
modification follow.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
61
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
62
63
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
64
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
65
under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
66
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
67
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
68
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
69
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
70
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
71
the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
72
73
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
74
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
75
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
76
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
77
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
78
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
79
80
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
81
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
82
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
83
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
84
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
85
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
86
along with the Program.
87
88
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
89
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
90
91
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
92
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
93
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
94
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
95
96
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
97
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
98
99
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
100
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
101
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
102
parties under the terms of this License.
103
104
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
105
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
106
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
107
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
108
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
109
a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
110
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
111
License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
112
does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
113
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
114
115
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
116
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
117
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
118
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
119
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
120
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
121
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
122
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
123
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
124
125
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
126
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
127
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
128
collective works based on the Program.
129
130
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
131
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
132
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
133
the scope of this License.
134
135
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
136
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
137
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
138
139
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
140
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
141
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
142
143
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
144
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
145
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
146
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
147
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
148
customarily used for software interchange; or,
149
150
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
151
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
152
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
153
received the program in object code or executable form with such
154
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
155
156
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
157
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
158
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
159
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
160
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
161
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
162
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
163
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
164
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
165
itself accompanies the executable.
166
167
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
168
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
169
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
170
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
171
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
172
173
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
174
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
175
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
176
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
177
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
178
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
179
parties remain in full compliance.
180
181
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
182
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
183
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
184
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
185
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
186
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
187
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
188
the Program or works based on it.
189
190
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
191
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
192
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
193
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
194
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
195
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
196
this License.
197
198
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
199
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
200
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
201
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
202
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
203
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
204
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
205
may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
206
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
207
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
208
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
209
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
210
211
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
212
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
213
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
214
circumstances.
215
216
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
217
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
218
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
219
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
220
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
221
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
222
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
223
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
224
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
225
impose that choice.
226
227
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
228
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
229
230
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
231
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
232
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
233
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
234
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
235
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
236
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
237
238
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
239
of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
240
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
241
address new problems or concerns.
242
243
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
244
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
245
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
246
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
247
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
248
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
249
Foundation.
250
251
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
252
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
253
to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
254
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
255
make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
256
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
257
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
258
259
NO WARRANTY
260
261
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
262
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
263
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
264
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
265
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
266
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
267
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
268
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
269
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
270
271
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
272
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
273
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
274
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
275
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
276
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
277
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
278
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
279
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
280
281
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
282
283
Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
284
285
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
286
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
287
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
288
289
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
290
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
291
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
292
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
293
294
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
295
Copyright (C) 19yy <name of author>
296
297
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
298
it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
299
the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
300
(at your option) any later version.
301
302
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
303
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
304
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
305
GNU General Public License for more details.
306
307
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
308
along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
309
Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA.
310
311
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
312
313
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
314
when it starts in an interactive mode:
315
316
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19yy name of author
317
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
318
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
319
under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
320
321
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
322
parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
323
be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
324
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
325
326
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
327
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
328
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
329
330
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
331
`Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

336
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
337
proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
338
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
339
library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
340
Public License instead of this License.
