 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
Packit a4893e
 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

Packit a4893e
			    Preamble
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
Packit a4893e
freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
Packit a4893e
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
Packit a4893e
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
Packit a4893e
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
Packit a4893e
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
Packit a4893e
using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
Packit a4893e
the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
Packit a4893e
your programs, too.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
Packit a4893e
price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
Packit a4893e
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
Packit a4893e
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
Packit a4893e
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
Packit a4893e
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
Packit a4893e
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
Packit a4893e
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
Packit a4893e
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
Packit a4893e
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
Packit a4893e
you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
Packit a4893e
source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
Packit a4893e
rights.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
Packit a4893e
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
Packit a4893e
distribute and/or modify the software.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
Packit a4893e
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
Packit a4893e
software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
Packit a4893e
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
Packit a4893e
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
Packit a4893e
authors' reputations.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
Packit a4893e
patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
Packit a4893e
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
Packit a4893e
program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
Packit a4893e
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
Packit a4893e
modification follow.

Packit a4893e
		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Packit a4893e
   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
Packit a4893e
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
Packit a4893e
under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
Packit a4893e
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
Packit a4893e
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
Packit a4893e
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
Packit a4893e
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
Packit a4893e
language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
Packit a4893e
the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
Packit a4893e
covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
Packit a4893e
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
Packit a4893e
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
Packit a4893e
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
Packit a4893e
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
Packit a4893e
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
Packit a4893e
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
Packit a4893e
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
Packit a4893e
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
Packit a4893e
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
Packit a4893e
along with the Program.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
Packit a4893e
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
Packit a4893e
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
Packit a4893e
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
Packit a4893e
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
Packit a4893e
    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
Packit a4893e
    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
Packit a4893e
    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
Packit a4893e
    parties under the terms of this License.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
Packit a4893e
    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
Packit a4893e
    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
Packit a4893e
    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
Packit a4893e
    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
Packit a4893e
    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
Packit a4893e
    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
Packit a4893e
    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
Packit a4893e
    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
Packit a4893e
    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
Packit a4893e

Packit a4893e
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
Packit a4893e
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
Packit a4893e
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
Packit a4893e
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
Packit a4893e
sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
Packit a4893e
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
Packit a4893e
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
Packit a4893e
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
Packit a4893e
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
Packit a4893e
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
Packit a4893e
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
Packit a4893e
collective works based on the Program.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
Packit a4893e
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
Packit a4893e
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
Packit a4893e
the scope of this License.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
Packit a4893e
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
Packit a4893e
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
Packit a4893e
    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
Packit a4893e
    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
Packit a4893e
    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
Packit a4893e
    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
Packit a4893e
    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
Packit a4893e
    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
Packit a4893e
    customarily used for software interchange; or,
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
Packit a4893e
    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
Packit a4893e
    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
Packit a4893e
    received the program in object code or executable form with such
Packit a4893e
    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
Packit a4893e
making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
Packit a4893e
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
Packit a4893e
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
Packit a4893e
control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
Packit a4893e
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
Packit a4893e
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
Packit a4893e
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
Packit a4893e
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
Packit a4893e
itself accompanies the executable.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
Packit a4893e
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
Packit a4893e
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
Packit a4893e
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
Packit a4893e
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
Packit a4893e

Packit a4893e
  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
Packit a4893e
except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
Packit a4893e
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
Packit a4893e
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
Packit a4893e
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
Packit a4893e
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
Packit a4893e
parties remain in full compliance.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
Packit a4893e
signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
Packit a4893e
distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
Packit a4893e
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
Packit a4893e
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
Packit a4893e
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
Packit a4893e
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
Packit a4893e
the Program or works based on it.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
Packit a4893e
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
Packit a4893e
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
Packit a4893e
these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
Packit a4893e
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
Packit a4893e
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
Packit a4893e
this License.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
Packit a4893e
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
Packit a4893e
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
Packit a4893e
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
Packit a4893e
excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
Packit a4893e
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
Packit a4893e
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
Packit a4893e
may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
Packit a4893e
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
Packit a4893e
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
Packit a4893e
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
Packit a4893e
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
Packit a4893e
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
Packit a4893e
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
Packit a4893e
circumstances.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
Packit a4893e
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
Packit a4893e
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
Packit a4893e
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
Packit a4893e
implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
Packit a4893e
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
Packit a4893e
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
Packit a4893e
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
Packit a4893e
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
Packit a4893e
impose that choice.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
Packit a4893e
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
Packit a4893e

Packit a4893e
  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
Packit a4893e
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
Packit a4893e
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
Packit a4893e
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
Packit a4893e
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
Packit a4893e
countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
Packit a4893e
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
Packit a4893e
of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
Packit a4893e
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
Packit a4893e
address new problems or concerns.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
Packit a4893e
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
Packit a4893e
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
Packit a4893e
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
Packit a4893e
Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
Packit a4893e
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
Packit a4893e
Foundation.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
Packit a4893e
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
Packit a4893e
to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
Packit a4893e
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
Packit a4893e
make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
Packit a4893e
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
Packit a4893e
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
			    NO WARRANTY
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
Packit a4893e
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
Packit a4893e
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
Packit a4893e
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
Packit a4893e
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
Packit a4893e
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
Packit a4893e
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
Packit a4893e
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
Packit a4893e
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
Packit a4893e
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
Packit a4893e
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
Packit a4893e
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
Packit a4893e
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
Packit a4893e
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
Packit a4893e
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
Packit a4893e
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
Packit a4893e
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e

Packit a4893e

Packit a4893e
	    How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
Packit a4893e
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
Packit a4893e
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
Packit a4893e
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
Packit a4893e
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
Packit a4893e
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Packit a4893e

Packit a4893e
    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
Packit a4893e
    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
Packit a4893e
    (at your option) any later version.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
Packit a4893e
    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
Packit a4893e
    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
Packit a4893e
    GNU General Public License for more details.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
Packit a4893e
    along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
Packit a4893e
    Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
Packit a4893e
when it starts in an interactive mode:
Packit a4893e

Packit a4893e
    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
Packit a4893e
    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
Packit a4893e
parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
Packit a4893e
be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
Packit a4893e
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
Packit a4893e
Packit a4893e
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
Packit a4893e
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
Packit a4893e
necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:

Packit a4893e
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
Packit a4893e
proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you may
Packit a4893e
consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
Packit a4893e
library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
Packit a4893e
Public License instead of this License.
Packit a4893e
