Version 1, February 1989
15+
16+
Copyright (C) 1989 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
17+
675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA
18+
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
19+
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
20+
21+
Preamble
22+
23+
The license agreements of most software companies try to keep users
24+
at the mercy of those companies. By contrast, our General Public
25+
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
26+
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. The
27+
General Public License applies to the Free Software Foundation's
28+
software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it.
29+
You can use it for your programs, too.
30+
31+
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
32+
price. Specifically, the General Public License is designed to make
33+
sure that you have the freedom to give away or sell copies of free
34+
software, that you receive source code or can get it if you want it,
35+
that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free
36+
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 a 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 tell them their rights.
47+
48+
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
49+
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
50+
distribute and/or modify the software.
51+
52+
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
53+
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
54+
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
55+
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
56+
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
57+
authors' reputations.
58+
59+
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
60+
modification follow.
61+
62+
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
63+
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
64+
65+
0. This License Agreement applies to any program or other work which
66+
contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be
67+
distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The
68+
"Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based
69+
on the Program" means either the Program or any work containing the
70+
Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications. Each
71+
licensee is addressed as "you".
72+
73+
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source
74+
code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
75+
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and
76+
disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this
77+
General Public License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any
78+
other recipients of the Program a copy of this General Public License
79+
along with the Program. You may charge a fee for the physical act of
80+
transferring a copy.
81+
82+
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of
83+
it, and copy and distribute such modifications under the terms of Paragraph
84+
1 above, provided that you also do the following:
85+
86+
a) cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that
87+
you changed the files and the date of any change; and
88+
89+
b) cause the whole of any work that you distribute or publish, that
90+
in whole or in part contains the Program or any part thereof, either
91+
with or without modifications, to be licensed at no charge to all
92+
third parties under the terms of this General Public License (except
93+
that you may choose to grant warranty protection to some or all
94+
third parties, at your option).
95+
96+
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when
97+
run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use
98+
in the simplest and most usual way, to print or display an
99+
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice
100+
that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a
101+
warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these
102+
conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this General
103+
Public License.
104+
105+
d) You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a
106+
copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in
107+
exchange for a fee.
108+
109+
Mere aggregation of another independent work with the Program (or its
110+
derivative) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring
111+
the other work under the scope of these terms.
112+
113+
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a portion or derivative of
114+
it, under Paragraph 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
115+
Paragraphs 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
116+
117+
a) accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
118+
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of
119+
Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or,
120+
121+
b) accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
122+
years, to give any third party free (except for a nominal charge
123+
for the cost of distribution) a complete machine-readable copy of the
124+
corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of
125+
Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or,
126+
127+
c) accompany it with the information you received as to where the
128+
corresponding source code may be obtained. (This alternative is
129+
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
130+
received the program in object code or executable form alone.)
131+
132+
Source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making
133+
modifications to it. For an executable file, complete source code means
134+
all the source code for all modules it contains; but, as a special
135+
exception, it need not include source code for modules which are standard
136+
libraries that accompany the operating system on which the executable
137+
file runs, or for standard header files or definitions files that
138+
accompany that operating system.
139+
140+
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, distribute or transfer the
141+
Program except as expressly provided under this General Public License.
142+
Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, distribute or transfer
143+
the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights to use
144+
the Program under this License. However, parties who have received
145+
copies, or rights to use copies, from you under this General Public
146+
License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties
147+
remain in full compliance.
148+
149+
5. By copying, distributing or modifying the Program (or any work based
150+
on the Program) you indicate your acceptance of this license to do so,
151+
and all its terms and conditions.
152+
153+
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
154+
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original
155+
licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these
156+
terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the
157+
recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
158+
159+
7. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
160+
of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
161+
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
162+
address new problems or concerns.
163+
164+
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
165+
specifies a version number of the license which applies to it and "any
166+
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
167+
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
168+
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
169+
the license, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
170+
Foundation.
171+
172+
8. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
173+
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
174+
to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
175+
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
176+
make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
177+
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
178+
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
179+
180+
NO WARRANTY
181+
182+
9. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
183+
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
184+
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
185+
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
186+
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
187+
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
188+
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
189+
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
190+
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
191+
192+
10. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
193+
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
194+
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
195+
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
196+
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
197+
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
198+
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
199+
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
200+
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
201+
202+
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
203+
204+
Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
205+
206+
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
207+
possible use to humanity, the best way to achieve this is to make it
208+
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these
209+
terms.
210+
211+
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to
212+
attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey
213+
the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
214+
"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
215+
216+
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
217+
Copyright (C) 19yy <name of author>
218+
219+
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
220+
it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
221+
the Free Software Foundation; either version 1, or (at your option)
222+
any later version.
223+
224+
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
225+
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
226+
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
227+
GNU General Public License for more details.
228+
229+
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
230+
along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
231+
Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.
232+
233+
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
234+
235+
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
236+
when it starts in an interactive mode:
237+
238+
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19xx name of author
239+
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
240+
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
241+
under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
242+
243+
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the
244+
appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the
245+
commands you use may be called something other than `show w' and `show
246+
c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your
247+
program.
248+
249+
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
250+
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
251+
necessary. Here a sample; alter the names:
252+
253+
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the
254+
program `Gnomovision' (a program to direct compilers to make passes
255+
at assemblers) written by James Hacker.
256+
257+
<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989
258+
Ty Coon, President of Vice
259+
260+
That's all there is to it!
