GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
28+
Version 2, June 1991
29+
30+
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
31+
59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
32+
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
33+
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
34+
35+
Preamble
36+
37+
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
38+
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
39+
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
40+
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
41+
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
42+
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
43+
using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
44+
the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
45+
your programs, too.
46+
47+
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
48+
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
49+
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
50+
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
51+
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
52+
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
53+
54+
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
55+
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
56+
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
57+
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
58+
59+
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
60+
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
61+
you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
62+
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
63+
rights.
64+
65+
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
66+
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
67+
distribute and/or modify the software.
68+
69+
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
70+
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
71+
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
72+
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
73+
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
74+
authors' reputations.
75+
76+
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
77+
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
78+
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
79+
program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
80+
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
81+
82+
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
83+
modification follow.
84+
85+
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
86+
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
87+
88+
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
89+
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
90+
under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
91+
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
92+
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
93+
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
94+
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
95+
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
96+
the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
97+
98+
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
99+
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
100+
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
101+
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
102+
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
103+
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
104+
105+
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
106+
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
107+
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
108+
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
109+
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
110+
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
111+
along with the Program.
112+
113+
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
114+
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
115+
116+
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
117+
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
118+
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
119+
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
120+
121+
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
122+
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
123+
124+
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
125+
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
126+
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
127+
parties under the terms of this License.
128+
129+
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
130+
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
131+
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
132+
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
133+
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
134+
a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
135+
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
136+
License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
137+
does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
138+
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
139+
140+
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
141+
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
142+
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
143+
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
144+
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
145+
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
146+
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
147+
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
148+
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
149+
150+
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
151+
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
152+
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
153+
collective works based on the Program.
154+
155+
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
156+
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
157+
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
158+
the scope of this License.
159+
160+
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
161+
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
162+
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
163+
164+
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
165+
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
166+
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
167+
168+
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
169+
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
170+
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
171+
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
172+
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
173+
customarily used for software interchange; or,
174+
175+
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
176+
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
177+
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
178+
received the program in object code or executable form with such
179+
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
180+
181+
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
182+
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
183+
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
184+
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
185+
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
186+
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
187+
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
188+
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
189+
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
190+
itself accompanies the executable.
191+
192+
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
193+
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
194+
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
195+
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
196+
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
197+
198+
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
199+
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
200+
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
201+
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
202+
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
203+
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
204+
parties remain in full compliance.
205+
206+
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
207+
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
208+
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
209+
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
210+
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
211+
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
212+
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
213+
the Program or works based on it.
214+
215+
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
216+
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
217+
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
218+
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
219+
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
220+
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
221+
this License.
222+
223+
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
224+
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
225+
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
226+
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
227+
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
228+
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
229+
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
230+
may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
231+
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
232+
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
233+
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
234+
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
235+
236+
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
237+
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
238+
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
239+
circumstances.
240+
241+
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
242+
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
243+
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
244+
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
245+
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
246+
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
247+
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
248+
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
249+
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
250+
impose that choice.
251+
252+
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
253+
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
254+
255+
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
256+
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
257+
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
258+
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
259+
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
260+
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
261+
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
262+
263+
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
264+
of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
265+
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
266+
address new problems or concerns.
267+
268+
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
269+
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
270+
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
271+
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
272+
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
273+
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
274+
Foundation.
275+
276+
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
277+
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
278+
to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
279+
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
280+
make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
281+
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
282+
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
283+
284+
NO WARRANTY
285+
286+
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
287+
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
288+
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
289+
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
290+
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
291+
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
292+
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
293+
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
294+
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
295+
296+
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
297+
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
298+
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
299+
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
300+
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
301+
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
302+
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
303+
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
304+
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
305+
306+
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
307+
308+
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
309+
310+
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
311+
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
312+
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
313+
314+
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
315+
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
316+
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
317+
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
318+

337+
338+
339+
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
340+
341+
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
342+
when it starts in an interactive mode:
343+
344+
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 2014 Alexander Farkas (aFarkas)
345+

346+
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
347+
under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
348+
349+
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
350+
parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
351+
be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
352+
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
353+
354+
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
355+
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
356+
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
357+
358+
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
359+
`Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

363+
364+
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
365+
proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
366+
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
367+
library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
368+
Public License instead of this License.
