12 Version 2, June 1991
13 Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
14 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
15 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
16 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
17 Preamble
18 The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
19 freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
20 License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
21 software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
22 General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
23 Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
24 using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
25 the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
26 your programs, too.
27 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
28 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
29 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
30 this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
31 if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
32 in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
33 To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
34 anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
35 These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
36 distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
37 For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
38 gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
39 you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
40 source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
41 rights.
42 We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
43 (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
44 distribute and/or modify the software.
45 Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
46 that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
47 software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
48 want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
49 that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
50 authors' reputations.
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 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
57 modification follow.
58
59 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
60 TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
61 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
62 a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
63 under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
64 refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
65 means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
66 that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
67 either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
68 language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
69 the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
70 Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
71 covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
72 running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
73 is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
74 Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
75 Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
76 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
77 source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
78 conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
79 copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
80 notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
81 and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
82 along with the Program.
83 You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
84 you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
85 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
86 of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
87 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
88 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
89 a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
90 stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
91 b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
92 whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
93 part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
94 parties under the terms of this License.
95 c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
96 when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
97 interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
98 announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
99 notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
100 a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
101 these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
102 License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
103 does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
104 the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
105
106 These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
107 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
108 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
109 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
110 sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
111 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
112 on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
113 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
114 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
115 Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
116 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
117 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
118 collective works based on the Program.
119 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
120 with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
121 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
122 the scope of this License.
123 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
124 under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
125 Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
126 a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
127 source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
128 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
129 b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
130 years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
131 cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
132 machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
133 distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
134 customarily used for software interchange; or,
135 c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
136 to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
137 allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
138 received the program in object code or executable form with such
139 an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
140 The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
141 making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
142 code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
143 associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
144 control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
145 special exception, the source code distributed need not include
146 anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
147 form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
148 operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
149 itself accompanies the executable.
150 If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
151 access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
152 access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
153 distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
154 compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
155
156 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
157 except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
158 otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
159 void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
160 However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
161 this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
162 parties remain in full compliance.
163 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
164 signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
165 distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
166 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
167 modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
168 Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
169 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
170 the Program or works based on it.
171 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
172 Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
173 original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
174 these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
175 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
176 You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
177 this License.
178 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
179 infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
180 conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
181 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
182 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
183 distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
184 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
185 may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
186 license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
187 all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
188 the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
189 refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
190 If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
191 any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
192 apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
193 circumstances.
194 It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
195 patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
196 such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
197 integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
198 implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
199 generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
200 through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
201 system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
202 to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
203 impose that choice.
204 This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
205 be a consequence of the rest of this License.
206
207 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
208 certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
209 original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
210 may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
211 those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
212 countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
213 the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
214 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
215 of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
216 be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
217 address new problems or concerns.
218 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
219 specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
220 later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
221 either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
222 Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
223 this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
224 Foundation.
225 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
226 programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
227 to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
228 Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
229 make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
230 of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
231 of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
232 NO WARRANTY
233 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
234 FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
235 OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
236 PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
237 OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
238 MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
239 TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
240 PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
241 REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
242 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
243 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
244 REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
245 INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
246 OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
247 TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
248 YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
249 PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
250 POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
251 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
252
253 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
254 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
255 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
256 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
257 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
258 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
259 convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
260 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
261 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
262 Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
263 This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
264 it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
265 the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
266 (at your option) any later version.
267 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
268 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
269 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
270 GNU General Public License for more details.
271 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
272 along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
273 Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
274
275 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
276 If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
277 when it starts in an interactive mode:
278 Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
279 Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
280 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
281 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
282 The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
283 parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
284 be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
285 mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
286 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
287 school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
288 necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
289 Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
290 `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
291 <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989
292 Ty Coon, President of Vice
293 This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
294 proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
295 consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
296 library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
297 Public License instead of this License.
