14 | Version 1, February 1989 | ||
15 | |||
16 | Copyright (C) 1989 Free Software Foundation, Inc. | ||
17 | 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA | ||
18 | Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies | ||
19 | of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. | ||
20 | |||
21 | Preamble | ||
22 | |||
23 | The license agreements of most software companies try to keep users | ||
24 | at the mercy of those companies. By contrast, our General Public | ||
25 | License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free | ||
26 | software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. The | ||
27 | General Public License applies to the Free Software Foundation's | ||
28 | software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it. | ||
29 | You can use it for your programs, too. | ||
30 | |||
31 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not | ||
32 | price. Specifically, the General Public License is designed to make | ||
33 | sure that you have the freedom to give away or sell copies of free | ||
34 | software, that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, | ||
35 | that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free | ||
36 | programs; and that you know you can do these things. | ||
37 | |||
38 | To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid | ||
39 | anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. | ||
40 | These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you | ||
41 | distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. | ||
42 | |||
43 | For example, if you distribute copies of a such a program, whether | ||
44 | gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that | ||
45 | you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the | ||
46 | source code. And you must tell them their rights. | ||
47 | |||
48 | We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and | ||
49 | (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, | ||
50 | distribute and/or modify the software. | ||
51 | |||
52 | Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain | ||
53 | that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free | ||
54 | software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we | ||
55 | want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so | ||
56 | that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original | ||
57 | authors' reputations. | ||
58 | |||
59 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and | ||
60 | modification follow. | ||
61 | |||
62 | GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE | ||
63 | TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION | ||
64 | |||
65 | 0. This License Agreement applies to any program or other work which | ||
66 | contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be | ||
67 | distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The | ||
68 | "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based | ||
69 | on the Program" means either the Program or any work containing the | ||
70 | Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications. Each | ||
71 | licensee is addressed as "you". | ||
72 | |||
73 | 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source | ||
74 | code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and | ||
75 | appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and | ||
76 | disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this | ||
77 | General Public License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any | ||
78 | other recipients of the Program a copy of this General Public License | ||
79 | along with the Program. You may charge a fee for the physical act of | ||
80 | transferring a copy. | ||
81 | |||
82 | 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of | ||
83 | it, and copy and distribute such modifications under the terms of Paragraph | ||
84 | 1 above, provided that you also do the following: | ||
85 | |||
86 | a) cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that | ||
87 | you changed the files and the date of any change; and | ||
88 | |||
89 | b) cause the whole of any work that you distribute or publish, that | ||
90 | in whole or in part contains the Program or any part thereof, either | ||
91 | with or without modifications, to be licensed at no charge to all | ||
92 | third parties under the terms of this General Public License (except | ||
93 | that you may choose to grant warranty protection to some or all | ||
94 | third parties, at your option). | ||
95 | |||
96 | c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when | ||
97 | run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use | ||
98 | in the simplest and most usual way, to print or display an | ||
99 | announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice | ||
100 | that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a | ||
101 | warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these | ||
102 | conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this General | ||
103 | Public License. | ||
104 | |||
105 | d) You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a | ||
106 | copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in | ||
107 | exchange for a fee. | ||
108 | |||
109 | Mere aggregation of another independent work with the Program (or its | ||
110 | derivative) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring | ||
111 | the other work under the scope of these terms. | ||
112 | |||
113 | 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a portion or derivative of | ||
114 | it, under Paragraph 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of | ||
115 | Paragraphs 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: | ||
116 | |||
117 | a) accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable | ||
118 | source code, which must be distributed under the terms of | ||
119 | Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or, | ||
120 | |||
121 | b) accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three | ||
122 | years, to give any third party free (except for a nominal charge | ||
123 | for the cost of distribution) a complete machine-readable copy of the | ||
124 | corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of | ||
125 | Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or, | ||
126 | |||
127 | c) accompany it with the information you received as to where the | ||
128 | corresponding source code may be obtained. (This alternative is | ||
129 | allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you | ||
130 | received the program in object code or executable form alone.) | ||
131 | |||
132 | Source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making | ||
133 | modifications to it. For an executable file, complete source code means | ||
134 | all the source code for all modules it contains; but, as a special | ||
135 | exception, it need not include source code for modules which are standard | ||
136 | libraries that accompany the operating system on which the executable | ||
137 | file runs, or for standard header files or definitions files that | ||
138 | accompany that operating system. | ||
139 | |||
140 | 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, distribute or transfer the | ||
141 | Program except as expressly provided under this General Public License. | ||
142 | Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, distribute or transfer | ||
143 | the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights to use | ||
144 | the Program under this License. However, parties who have received | ||
145 | copies, or rights to use copies, from you under this General Public | ||
146 | License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties | ||
147 | remain in full compliance. | ||
148 | |||
149 | 5. By copying, distributing or modifying the Program (or any work based | ||
150 | on the Program) you indicate your acceptance of this license to do so, | ||
151 | and all its terms and conditions. | ||
152 | |||
153 | 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the | ||
154 | Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original | ||
155 | licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these | ||
156 | terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the | ||
157 | recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. | ||
158 | |||
159 | 7. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions | ||
160 | of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will | ||
161 | be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to | ||
162 | address new problems or concerns. | ||
163 | |||
164 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program | ||
165 | specifies a version number of the license which applies to it and "any | ||
166 | later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions | ||
167 | either of that version or of any later version published by the Free | ||
168 | Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of | ||
169 | the license, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software | ||
170 | Foundation. | ||
171 | |||
172 | 8. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free | ||
173 | programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author | ||
174 | to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free | ||
175 | Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes | ||
176 | make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals | ||
177 | of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and | ||
178 | of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. | ||
179 | |||
180 | NO WARRANTY | ||
181 | |||
182 | 9. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY | ||
183 | FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN | ||
184 | OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES | ||
185 | PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED | ||
186 | OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF | ||
187 | MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS | ||
188 | TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE | ||
189 | PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, | ||
190 | REPAIR OR CORRECTION. | ||
191 | |||
192 | 10. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING | ||
193 | WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR | ||
194 | REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, | ||
195 | INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING | ||
196 | OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED | ||
197 | TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY | ||
198 | YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER | ||
199 | PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE | ||
200 | POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. | ||
201 | |||
202 | END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS | ||
203 | |||
204 | Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs | ||
205 | |||
206 | If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest | ||
207 | possible use to humanity, the best way to achieve this is to make it | ||
208 | free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these | ||
209 | terms. | ||
210 | |||
211 | To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to | ||
212 | attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey | ||
213 | the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the | ||
214 | "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. | ||
215 | |||
216 | <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.> | ||
217 | Copyright (C) 19yy <name of author> | ||
218 | |||
219 | This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify | ||
220 | it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by | ||
221 | the Free Software Foundation; either version 1, or (at your option) | ||
222 | any later version. | ||
223 | |||
224 | This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, | ||
225 | but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of | ||
226 | MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the | ||
227 | GNU General Public License for more details. | ||
228 | |||
229 | You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License | ||
230 | along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software | ||
231 | Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA. | ||
232 | |||
233 | Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. | ||
234 | |||
235 | If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this | ||
236 | when it starts in an interactive mode: | ||
237 | |||
238 | Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19xx name of author | ||
239 | Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. | ||
240 | This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it | ||
241 | under certain conditions; type `show c' for details. | ||
242 | |||
243 | The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the | ||
244 | appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the | ||
245 | commands you use may be called something other than `show w' and `show | ||
246 | c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your | ||
247 | program. | ||
248 | |||
249 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your | ||
250 | school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if | ||
251 | necessary. Here a sample; alter the names: | ||
252 | |||
253 | Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the | ||
254 | program `Gnomovision' (a program to direct compilers to make passes | ||
255 | at assemblers) written by James Hacker. | ||
256 | |||
257 | <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989 | ||
258 | Ty Coon, President of Vice | ||
259 | |||
260 | That's all there is to it! | ||
