Just a simple string manipulation library
This really is nothing special.
The only reason for this repository being public is that a few of my more noteworthy projects depend on it as a git submodule.
Users couldn't build them without being able to pull this repo as a submodule.
LICENSE
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 3, 29 June 2007
Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
software and other kinds of works.
The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
them 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 prevent others from denying you
these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
freedoms that you received. 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.
Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
authors of previous versions.
Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
0. Definitions.
"This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
"Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
works, such as semiconductor masks.
"The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
on the Program.
To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
public, and in some countries other activities as well.
To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
1. Source Code.
The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
form of a work.
A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
is widely used among developers working in that language.
The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
includes interface definition files associated with source files for
the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
subprograms and other parts of the work.
The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
Source.
The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
same work.
2. Basic Permissions.
All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
makes it unnecessary.
3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
measures.
When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
technological measures.
4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
You may convey 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;
keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
it, and giving a relevant date.
b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
released under this License and any conditions added under section
7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
"keep intact all notices".
c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
work need not make them do so.
A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
parts of the aggregate.
6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
in one of these ways:
a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
customarily used for software interchange.
b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
with subsection 6b.
d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
charge under subsection 6d.
A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
included in conveying the object code work.
A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
the only significant mode of use of the product.
"Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
modification has been made.
If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
been installed in ROM).
The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
protocols for communication across the network.
Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
source code form), and must require no special password or key for
unpacking, reading or copying.
7. Additional Terms.
"Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
this License without regard to the additional permissions.
When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
Notices displayed by works containing it; or
c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
authors of the material; or
e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
those licensors and authors.
All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
governed by this License along with a term that is a further
restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
not survive such relicensing or conveying.
If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
where to find the applicable terms.
Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
the above requirements apply either way.
8. Termination.
You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
paragraph of section 11).
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
prior to 60 days after the cessation.
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
your receipt of the notice.
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
material under section 10.
9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
11. Patents.
A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
this License.
Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
propagate the contents of its contributor version.
In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
patent against the party.
If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
country that you have reason to believe are valid.
If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
work and works based on it.
A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
If 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 convey a
covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
combination as such.
14. Revised Versions of this License.
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
the GNU 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 that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
version or of any later version published by the Free Software
Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
by the Free Software Foundation.
If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
to choose that version for the Program.
Later license versions may give you additional or different
permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
later version.
15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
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.
16. Limitation of Liability.
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
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.
17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
copy of the Program in return for a fee.
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
state 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 published by
the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 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 General Public License
along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
<program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
<http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
Public License instead of this License. But first, please read

By contrast, 25the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to 26share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free 27software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the 28GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to 29any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to 30your programs, too. 31 32When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not 33price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you 34have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for 35them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you 36want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new 37free programs, and that you know you can do these things. 38 39To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you 40these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have 41certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if 42you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others. 43 44For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether 45gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same 46freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive 47or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they 48know their rights. 49 50Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps: 51(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License 52giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it. 53 54For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains 55that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and 56authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as 57changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to 58authors of previous versions. 59 60Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run 61modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer 62can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of 63protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic 64pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to 65use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we 66have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those 67products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we 68stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions 69of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users. 70 71Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. 72States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of 73software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to 74avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could 75make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that 76patents cannot be used to render the program non-free. 77 78The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and 79modification follow. 80 81TERMS AND CONDITIONS 82 830. Definitions. 84 85"This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License. 86 87"Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of 88works, such as semiconductor masks. 89 90"The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this 91License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and 92"recipients" may be individuals or organizations. 93 94To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work 95in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an 96exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the 97earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work. 98 99A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based 100on the Program. 101 102To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without 103permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for 104infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a 105computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying, 106distribution (with or without modification), making available to the 107public, and in some countries other activities as well. 108 109To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other 110parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through 111a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying. 112 113An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices" 114to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible 115feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2) 116tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the 117extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the 118work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If 119the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a 120menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion. 121 1221. Source Code. 123 124The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work 125for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source 126form of a work. 127 128A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official 129standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of 130interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that 131is widely used among developers working in that language. 132 133The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other 134than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of 135packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major 136Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that 137Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an 138implementation is available to the public in source code form. A 139"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component 140(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system 141(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to 142produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it. 143 144The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all 145the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable 146work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to 147control those activities. However, it does not include the work's 148System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free 149programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but 150which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source 151includes interface definition files associated with source files for 152the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically 153linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require, 154such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those 155subprograms and other parts of the work. 156 157The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users 158can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding 159Source. 160 161The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that 162same work. 163 1642. Basic Permissions. 165 166All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of 167copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated 168conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited 169permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a 170covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its 171content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your 172rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law. 173 174You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not 175convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains 176in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose 177of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you 178with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with 179the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do 180not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works 181for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction 182and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of 183your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you. 184 185Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under 186the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 187makes it unnecessary. 188 1893. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law. 190 191No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological 192measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article 19311 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or 194similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such 195measures. 196 197When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid 198circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention 199is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to 200the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or 201modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's 202users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of 203technological measures. 204 2054. Conveying Verbatim Copies. 206 207You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you 208receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and 209appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice; 210keep intact all notices stating that this License and any 211non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code; 212keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all 213recipients a copy of this License along with the Program. 214 215You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, 216and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee. 217 2185. Conveying Modified Source Versions. 219 220You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to 221produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the 222terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: 223 224a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified 225it, and giving a relevant date. 226 227b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is 228released under this License and any conditions added under section 2297. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to 230"keep intact all notices". 231 232c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this 233License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This 234License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7 235additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts, 236regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no 237permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not 238invalidate such permission if you have separately received it. 239 240d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display 241Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive 242interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your 243work need not make them do so. 244 245A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent 246works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work, 247and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program, 248in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an 249"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not 250used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users 251beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work 252in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other 253parts of the aggregate. 254 2556. Conveying Non-Source Forms. 256 257You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms 258of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the 259machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, 260in one of these ways: 261 262a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product 263(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the 264Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium 265customarily used for software interchange. 266 267b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product 268(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a 269written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as 270long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product 271model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a 272copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the 273product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical 274medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no 275more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this 276conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the 277Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge. 278 279c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the 280written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This 281alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and 282only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord 283with subsection 6b. 284 285d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated 286place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the 287Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no 288further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the 289Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to 290copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source 291may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party) 292that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain 293clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the 294Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the 295Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is 296available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements. 297 298e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided 299you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding 300Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no 301charge under subsection 6d. 302 303A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded 304from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be 305included in conveying the object code work. 306 307A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any 308tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family, 309or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation 310into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product, 311doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular 312product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a 313typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status 314of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user 315actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product 316is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial 317commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent 318the only significant mode of use of the product. 319 320"Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods, 321procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install 322and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from 323a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must 324suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object 325code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because 326modification has been made. 327 328If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or 329specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as 330part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the 331User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a 332fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the 333Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied 334by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply 335if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install 336modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has 337been installed in ROM). 338 339The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a 340requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates 341for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for 342the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a 343network may be denied when the modification itself materially and 344adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and 345protocols for communication across the network. 346 347Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, 348in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly 349documented (and with an implementation available to the public in 350source code form), and must require no special password or key for 351unpacking, reading or copying. 352 3537. Additional Terms. 354 355"Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this 356License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions. 357Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall 358be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent 359that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions 360apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately 361under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by 362this License without regard to the additional permissions. 363 364When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option 365remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of 366it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own 367removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place 368additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work, 369for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission. 370 371Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you 372add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of 373that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms: 374 375a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the 376terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or 377 378b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or 379author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal 380Notices displayed by works containing it; or 381 382c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or 383requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in 384reasonable ways as different from the original version; or 385 386d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or 387authors of the material; or 388 389e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some 390trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or 391 392f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that 393material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of 394it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for 395any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on 396those licensors and authors. 397 398All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further 399restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you 400received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is 401governed by this License along with a term that is a further 402restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains 403a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this 404License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms 405of that license document, provided that the further restriction does 406not survive such relicensing or conveying. 407 408If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you 409must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the 410additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating 411where to find the applicable terms. 412 413Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the 414form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; 415the above requirements apply either way. 416 4178. Termination. 418 419You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly 420provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or 421modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under 422this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third 423paragraph of section 11). 424 425However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your 426license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) 427provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and 428finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright 429holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means 430prior to 60 days after the cessation. 431 432Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is 433reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the 434violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have 435received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that 436copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after 437your receipt of the notice. 438 439Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the 440licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under 441this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently 442reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same 443material under section 10. 444 4459. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies. 446 447You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or 448run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work 449occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission 450to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However, 451nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or 452modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do 453not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a 454covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so. 455 45610. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients. 457 458Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically 459receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and 460propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible 461for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License. 462 463An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an 464organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an 465organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered 466work results from an entity transaction, each party to that 467transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever 468licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could 469give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the 470Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if 471the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts. 472 473You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the 474rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may 475not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of 476rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation 477(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that 478any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for 479sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it. 480 48111. Patents. 482 483A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this 484License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The 485work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version". 486 487A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims 488owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or 489hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted 490by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version, 491but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a 492consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For 493purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant 494patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of 495this License. 496 497Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free 498patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to 499make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and 500propagate the contents of its contributor version. 501 502In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express 503agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent 504(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to 505sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a 506party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a 507patent against the party. 508 509If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license, 510and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone 511to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a 512publicly available network server or other readily accessible means, 513then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so 514available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the 515patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner 516consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent 517license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have 518actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the 519covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work 520in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that 521country that you have reason to believe are valid. 522 523If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or 524arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a 525covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties 526receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify 527or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license 528you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered 529work and works based on it. 530 531A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within 532the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is 533conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are 534specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered 535work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is 536in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment 537to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying 538the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the 539parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory 540patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work 541conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily 542for and in connection with specific products or compilations that 543contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement, 544or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007. 545 546Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting 547any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may 548otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law. 549 55012. No Surrender of Others' Freedom. 551 552If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or 553otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not 554excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a 555covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this 556License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may 557not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you 558to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey 559the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this 560License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program. 561 56213. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License. 563 564Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have 565permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed 566under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single 567combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this 568License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work, 569but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License, 570section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the 571combination as such. 572 57314. Revised Versions of this License. 574 575The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of 576the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will 577be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to 578address new problems or concerns. 579 580Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the 581Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General 582Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the 583option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered 584version or of any later version published by the Free Software 585Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the 586GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published 587by the Free Software Foundation. 588 589If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future 590versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's 591public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you 592to choose that version for the Program. 593 594Later license versions may give you additional or different 595permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any 596author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a 597later version. 598 59915. Disclaimer of Warranty. 600 601THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY 602APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT 603HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY 604OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, 605THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR 606PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM 607IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF 608ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. 609 61016. Limitation of Liability. 611 612IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING 613WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS 614THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY 615GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE 616USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF 617DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD 618PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), 619EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF 620SUCH DAMAGES. 621 62217. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16. 623 624If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided 625above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms, 626reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates 627an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the 628Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a 629copy of the Program in return for a fee. 630 631END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS 632 633How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs 634 635If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest 636possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it 637free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. 638 639To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest 640to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively 641state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least 642the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. 643 644<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> 645Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> 646 647This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify 648it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by 649the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or 650(at your option) any later version. 651 652This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, 653but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of 654MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the 655GNU General Public License for more details. 656 657You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License 658along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. 659 660Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. 661 662If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short 663notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode: 664 665<program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author> 666This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. 667This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it 668under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. 669 670The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate 671parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands 672might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box". 673 674You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school, 675if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. 676For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see 677<http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>. 678 679The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program 680into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you 681may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with 682the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General 683Public License instead of this License. But first, please read 684<http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>. 685``` 686
