'------------' intended to guarantee your freedom to share and |. . .|
.------------. change free software--to make sure the software is | . . |
| changelog | free for all its users. This General Public |. . .|
'------------' License applies to most of the Free Software | . . |
.------------. Foundation's software and to any other program |. . .|
| bugs | whose authors commit to using it. (Some other | . . |
'------------' Free Software Foundation software is covered by |. . .|
.------------. the GNU Library General Public License instead.) | . . |
| wishlist | You can apply it to your programs, too. |. . .|
'------------' | . . |
.------------. When we speak of free software, we are referring |. . .|
| website | to freedom, not price. Our General Public | . . |
'------------' Licenses are designed to make sure that you have |. . .|
.------------. the freedom to distribute copies of free software | . . |
| beta v0.90 | (and charge for this service if you wish), that |. . .|
'------------' you receive source code or can get it if you want | . . |
\...... . | it, that you can change the software or use pieces |. . .|
|. .| of it in new free programs; and that you know you | . . |
| . | can do these things. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | To protect your rights, we need to make |. . .|
|. .| restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these | . . |
| . | rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. |. . .|
|. .| These restrictions translate to certain | . . |
| . | responsibilities for you if you distribute copies |. . .|
|. .| of the software, or if you modify it. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| For example, if you distribute copies of such a | . . |
| . | program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must |. . .|
|. .| give the recipients all the rights that you have. | . . |
| . | You must make sure that they, too, receive or can |. . .|
|. .| get the source code. And you must show them these | . . |
| . | terms so they know their rights. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | We protect your rights with two steps: (1) |. . .|
|. .| copyright the software, and (2) offer you this | . . |
| . | license which gives you legal permission to copy, |. . .|
|. .| distribute and/or modify the software. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| Also, for each author's protection and ours, we | . . |
| . | want to make certain that everyone understands |. . .|
|. .| that there is no warranty for this free software. | . . |
| . | If the software is modified by someone else and |. . .|
|. .| passed on, we want its recipients to know that | . . |
| . | what they have is not the original, so that any |. . .|
|. .| problems introduced by others will not reflect on | . . |
| . | the original authors' reputations. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | Finally, any free program is threatened |. . .|
|. .| constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid | . . |
| . | the danger that redistributors of a free program |. . .|
|. .| will individually obtain patent licenses, in | . . |
| . | effect making the program proprietary. To prevent |. . .|
|. .| this, we have made it clear that any patent must | . . |
| . | be licensed for everyone's free use or not |. . .|
|. .| licensed at all. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| The precise terms and conditions for copying, | . . |
| . | distribution and modification follow. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |. . .|
|. .| TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, | . . |
| . | DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | 0. This License applies to any program or other |. . .|
|. .| work which contains a notice placed by the | . . |
| . | copyright holder saying it may be distributed |. . .|
|. .| under the terms of this General Public License. | . . |
| . | The "Program", below, refers to any such program |. . .|
|. .| or work, and a "work based on the Program" means | . . |
| . | either the Program or any derivative work under |. . .|
|. .| copyright law: that is to say, a work containing | . . |
| . | the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or |. . .|
|. .| with modifications and/or translated into another | . . |
| . | language. (Hereinafter, translation is included |. . .|
|. .| without limitation in the term "modification".) | . . |
| . | Each licensee is addressed as "you". |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | Activities other than copying, distribution and |. . .|
|. .| modification are not covered by this License; they | . . |
| . | are outside its scope. The act of running the |. . .|
|. .| Program is not restricted, and the output from the | . . |
| . | Program is covered only if its contents constitute |. . .|
|. .| a work based on the Program (independent of having | . . |
| . | been made by running the Program). Whether that |. . .|
|. .| is true depends on what the Program does. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies | . . |
| . | of the Program's source code as you receive it, in |. . .|
|. .| any medium, provided that you conspicuously and | . . |
| . | appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate |. . .|
|. .| copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep | . . |
| . | intact all the notices that refer to this License |. . .|
|. .| and to the absence of any warranty; and give any | . . |
| . | other recipients of the Program a copy of this |. . .|
|. .| License along with the Program. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| You may charge a fee for the physical act of | . . |
| . | transferring a copy, and you may at your option |. . .|
|. .| offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the | . . |
| . | Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work |. . .|
|. .| based on the Program, and copy and distribute such | . . |
| . | modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 |. . .|
|. .| above, provided that you also meet all of these | . . |
| . | conditions: |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | a) You must cause the modified files to carry |. . .|
|. .| prominent notices stating that you changed the | . . |
| . | files and the date of any change. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | b) You must cause any work that you distribute |. . .|
|. .| or publish, that in whole or in part contains | . . |
| . | or is derived from the Program or any part |. . .|
|. .| thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no | . . |
| . | charge to all third parties under the terms of |. . .|
|. .| this License. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| c) If the modified program normally reads | . . |
| . | commands interactively when run, you must |. . .|
|. .| cause it, when started running for such | . . |
| . | interactive use in the most ordinary way, to |. . .|
|. .| print or display an announcement including an | . . |
| . | appropriate copyright notice and a notice that |. . .|
|. .| there is no warranty (or else, saying that you | . . |
| . | provide a warranty) and that users may |. . .|
|. .| redistribute the program under these | . . |
| . | conditions, and telling the user how to view a |. . .|
|. .| copy of this License. (Exception: if the | . . |
| . | Program itself is interactive but does not |. . .|
|. .| normally print such an announcement, your work | . . |
| . | based on the Program is not required to print |. . .|
|. .| an announcement.) | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| These requirements apply to the modified work as a | . . |
| . | whole. If identifiable sections of that work are |. . .|
|. .| not derived from the Program, and can be | . . |
| . | reasonably considered independent and separate |. . .|
|. .| works in themselves, then this License, and its | . . |
| . | terms, do not apply to those sections when you |. . .|
|. .| distribute them as separate works. But when you | . . |
| . | distribute the same sections as part of a whole |. . .|
|. .| which is a work based on the Program, the | . . |
| . | distribution of the whole must be on the terms of |. . .|
|. .| this License, whose permissions for other | . . |
| . | licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to |. . .|
|. .| each and every part regardless of who wrote it. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| Thus, it is not the intent of this section to | . . |
| . | claim rights or contest your rights to work |. . .|
|. .| written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to | . . |
| . | exercise the right to control the distribution of |. . .|
|. .| derivative or collective works based on the | . . |
| . | Program. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | In addition, mere aggregation of another work not |. . .|
|. .| based on the Program with the Program (or with a | . . |
| . | work based on the Program) on a volume of a |. . .|
|. .| storage or distribution medium does not bring the | . . |
| . | other work under the scope of this License. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a |. . .|
|. .| work based on it, under Section 2) in object code | . . |
| . | or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 |. . .|
|. .| and 2 above provided that you also do one of the | . . |
| . | following: |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | a) Accompany it with the complete |. . .|
|. .| corresponding machine-readable source code, | . . |
| . | which must be distributed under the terms of |. . .|
|. .| Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily | . . |
| . | used for software interchange; or, |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid |. . .|
|. .| for at least three years, to give any third | . . |
| . | party, for a charge no more than your cost of |. . .|
|. .| physically performing source distribution, a | . . |
| . | complete machine-readable copy of the |. . .|
|. .| corresponding source code, to be distributed | . . |
| . | under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a |. . .|
|. .| medium customarily used for software | . . |
| . | interchange; or, |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | c) Accompany it with the information you |. . .|
|. .| received as to the offer to distribute | . . |
| . | corresponding source code. (This alternative |. . .|
|. .| is allowed only for noncommercial distribution | . . |
| . | and only if you received the program in object |. . .|
|. .| code or executable form with such an offer, in | . . |
| . | accord with Subsection b above.) |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | The source code for a work means the preferred |. . .|
|. .| form of the work for making modifications to it. | . . |
| . | For an executable work, complete source code means |. . .|
|. .| all the source code for all modules it contains, | . . |
| . | plus any associated interface definition files, |. . .|
|. .| plus the scripts used to control compilation and | . . |
| . | installation of the executable. However, as a |. . .|
|. .| special exception, the source code distributed | . . |
| . | need not include anything that is normally |. . .|
|. .| distributed (in either source or binary form) with | . . |
| . | the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) |. . .|
|. .| of the operating system on which the executable | . . |
| . | runs, unless that component itself accompanies the |. . .|
|. .| executable. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| If distribution of executable or object code is | . . |
| . | made by offering access to copy from a designated |. . .|
|. .| place, then offering equivalent access to copy the | . . |
| . | source code from the same place counts as |. . .|
|. .| distribution of the source code, even though third | . . |
| . | parties are not compelled to copy the source along |. . .|
|. .| with the object code. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or | . . |
| . | distribute the Program except as expressly |. . .|
|. .| provided under this License. Any attempt | . . |
| . | otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or |. . .|
|. .| distribute the Program is void, and will | . . |
| . | automatically terminate your rights under this |. . .|
|. .| License. However, parties who have received | . . |
| . | copies, or rights, from you under this License |. . .|
|. .| will not have their licenses terminated so long as | . . |
| . | such parties remain in full compliance. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | 5. You are not required to accept this License, |. . .|
|. .| since you have not signed it. However, nothing | . . |
| . | else grants you permission to modify or distribute |. . .|
|. .| the Program or its derivative works. These | . . |
| . | actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept |. . .|
|. .| this License. Therefore, by modifying or | . . |
| . | distributing the Program (or any work based on the |. . .|
|. .| Program), you indicate your acceptance of this | . . |
| . | License to do so, and all its terms and conditions |. . .|
|. .| for copying, distributing or modifying the Program | . . |
| . | or works based on it. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or |. . .|
|. .| any work based on the Program), the recipient | . . |
| . | automatically receives a license from the original |. . .|
|. .| licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program | . . |
| . | subject to these terms and conditions. You may |. . .|
|. .| not impose any further restrictions on the | . . |
| . | recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. |. . .|
|. .| You are not responsible for enforcing compliance | . . |
| . | by third parties to this License. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or |. . .|
|. .| allegation of patent infringement or for any other | . . |
| . | reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions |. . .|
|. .| are imposed on you (whether by court order, | . . |
| . | agreement or otherwise) that contradict the |. . .|
|. .| conditions of this License, they do not excuse you | . . |
| . | from the conditions of this License. If you |. . .|
|. .| cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously | . . |
| . | your obligations under this License and any other |. . .|
|. .| pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you | . . |
| . | may not distribute the Program at all. For |. . .|
|. .| example, if a patent license would not permit | . . |
| . | royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all |. . .|
|. .| those who receive copies directly or indirectly | . . |
| . | through you, then the only way you could satisfy |. . .|
|. .| both it and this License would be to refrain | . . |
| . | entirely from distribution of the Program. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | If any portion of this section is held invalid or |. . .|
|. .| unenforceable under any particular circumstance, | . . |
| . | the balance of the section is intended to apply |. . .|
|. .| and the section as a whole is intended to apply in | . . |
| . | other circumstances. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | It is not the purpose of this section to induce |. . .|
|. .| you to infringe any patents or other property | . . |
| . | right claims or to contest validity of any such |. . .|
|. .| claims; this section has the sole purpose of | . . |
| . | protecting the integrity of the free software |. . .|
|. .| distribution system, which is implemented by | . . |
| . | public license practices. Many people have made |. . .|
|. .| generous contributions to the wide range of | . . |
| . | software distributed through that system in |. . .|
|. .| reliance on consistent application of that system; | . . |
| . | it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or |. . .|
|. .| she is willing to distribute software through any | . . |
| . | other system and a licensee cannot impose that |. . .|
|. .| choice. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| This section is intended to make thoroughly clear | . . |
| . | what is believed to be a consequence of the rest |. . .|
|. .| of this License. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program | . . |
| . | is restricted in certain countries either by |. . .|
|. .| patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original | . . |
| . | copyright holder who places the Program under this |. . .|
|. .| License may add an explicit geographical | . . |
| . | distribution limitation excluding those countries, |. . .|
|. .| so that distribution is permitted only in or among | . . |
| . | countries not thus excluded. In such case, this |. . .|
|. .| License incorporates the limitation as if written | . . |
| . | in the body of this License. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish |. . .|
|. .| revised and/or new versions of the General Public | . . |
| . | License from time to time. Such new versions will |. . .|
|. .| be similar in spirit to the present version, but | . . |
| . | may differ in detail to address new problems or |. . .|
|. .| concerns. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| Each version is given a distinguishing version | . . |
| . | number. If the Program specifies a version number |. . .|
|. .| of this License which applies to it and "any later | . . |
| . | version", you have the option of following the |. . .|
|. .| terms and conditions either of that version or of | . . |
| . | any later version published by the Free Software |. . .|
|. .| Foundation. If the Program does not specify a | . . |
| . | version number of this License, you may choose any |. . .|
|. .| version ever published by the Free Software | . . |
| . | Foundation. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the |. . .|
|. .| Program into other free programs whose | . . |
| . | distribution conditions are different, write to |. . .|
|. .| the author to ask for permission. For software | . . |
| . | which is copyrighted by the Free Software |. . .|
|. .| Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; | . . |
| . | we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our |. . .|
|. .| decision will be guided by the two goals of | . . |
| . | preserving the free status of all derivatives of |. . .|
|. .| our free software and of promoting the sharing and | . . |
| . | reuse of software generally. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | NO WARRANTY |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF |. . .|
|. .| CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO | . . |
| . | THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT |. . .|
|. .| WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT | . . |
| . | HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM |. . .|
|. .| "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER | . . |
| . | EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED |. . .|
|. .| TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND | . . |
| . | FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK |. . .|
|. .| AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM | . . |
| . | IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, |. . .|
|. .| YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, | . . |
| . | REPAIR OR CORRECTION. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE |. . .|
|. .| LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT | . . |
| . | HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR |. . .|
|. .| REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE | . . |
| . | LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, |. . .|
|. .| SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES | . . |
| . | ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE |. . .|
|. .| PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA | . . |
| . | OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES |. . .|
|. .| SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF | . . |
| . | THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), |. . .|
|. .| EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN | . . |
| . | ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | If you develop a new program, and you want it to |. . .|
|. .| be of the greatest possible use to the public, the | . . |
| . | best way to achieve this is to make it free |. . .|
|. .| software which everyone can redistribute and | . . |
| . | change under these terms. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | To do so, attach the following notices to the |. . .|
|. .| program. It is safest to attach them to the start | . . |
| . | of each source file to most effectively convey the |. . .|
|. .| exclusion of warranty; and each file should have | . . |
| . | at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to |. . .|
|. .| where the full notice is found. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| (one line to give the program's name and a | . . |
| . | brief idea of what it does.) Copyright (C) |. . .|
|. .| (year) (name of author) | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| This program is free software; you can | . . |
| . | redistribute it and/or modify it under the |. . .|
|. .| terms of the GNU General Public License as | . . |

|. .| either version 2 of the License, or (at your | . . |
| . | option) any later version. |. . .|
|. .| | . . |
| . | This program is distributed in the hope that |. . .|
|. .| it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; | . . |
| . | without even the implied warranty of |. . .|
|. .| MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR | . . |
| . | PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License |. . .|
|. .| for more details. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| You should have received a copy of the GNU | . . |

|. .| | . . |
| . | Also add information on how to contact you by |. . .|
|. .| electronic and paper mail. | . . |
| . | |. . .|
|. .| If the program is interactive, make it output a | . . |
| . | short notice like this when it starts in an |. . .|
|. .| interactive mode: | . . |
