Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license
document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to
share and change it.
By contrast, he GNU General Public License is intended
to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software—to make
sure the software is free for all its users.
This General Public License
applies to most of the Free Software Foundation’s software and to any ther
program whose authors commit to using it.
(Some other Free Software
Foundation software is covered by the GNU Library General Public License
instead.)
You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to reedom, 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 this service if
you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you
can chnge the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that
you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to
deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restritions
translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the
software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or
for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that ou have. You must
make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code.
And you must
show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2)
offer you this license which gies you legal permission to copy, distribute
and/or modify the software.

Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want to make certain that
everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the
software is modified by soeone else and passed on, we want its recipients
to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems
introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors’ reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by sftware patents.
We
wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will
individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary.
To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for
everyone’s ree use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification
follow.
Terms & conditions for copying, distribution, & modification
This License applies to any proram or other work which contains a notice
placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms
of this General Public License.
The “Program”, below, refers to any such
program or work, and a “work based on the Program” means eitherthe
Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work
containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with
modifications and/or translated into another language.
(Hereinafter,
translation is included without limitaton in the term “modification”.)
Each
licensee is addressed as “you”.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered
by this License; they are outside its scope.
The act of running the Program
is not restricted, and the otput from the Program is covered only if its contents
constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made
by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program
does.
1.
You may copy and distribute verbatim copis of the Program’s source code
as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and
disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License
and o the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the
Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you
may at your option offer warranty protection in exchang for a fee.

2.
You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it,
thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such
modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that
you also meet all ofthese conditions:
a)
You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stat-
ing that you changed the files and the date of any change.
b)
You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole
or in part contains or s derived from the Program or any part thereof,
to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the
terms of this License.
c)
If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
when run, you must cause it, when started unning for such interac-
tive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announce-
ment including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that
there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty)
and that users may redistribute th program under these conditions,
and telling the user how to view a copy of this License.
(Exception:
if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such
an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required
to print an announement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable
sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be
reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then
this License, and its terms, d not apply to those sections when you distribute
them as separate works.
But when you distribute the same sections as part
of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the
whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissons for other
licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part
regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights
to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to xercise the right to
control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the
Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a
storageor distribution medium does not bring the other work under the
scope of this License.

3.
You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under
Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1
and 2 above provded that you also do one of the following:
a)
Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software inter-
change; or,
b)
Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to
give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physi-
cally performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable
copy of the corresponding source code, to bedistributed under the
terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for
software interchange; or,
c)
Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to
distribute corresponding source code.
(This alternative is allowe
only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the
program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in
accord with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making
modificationsto it.
For an executable work, complete source code means
all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface
definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation
of the executable.
However, as a spcial exception, the source code distributed
need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or
binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of
the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that omponent
itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to
copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
source code from the same place counts as distribution of te source code,
even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with
the object code.
