For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You
must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And
you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2)
offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribu-
te and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that
everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If
the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its re-
cipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any pro-
blems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' re-
putations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.
We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will in-
dividually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program propri-
etary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be li-
censed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modifica-
tion follow.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICA-
TION
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a
notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed un-
der the terms of this General Public License. The „Program", below, refers
to any such program or work, and a „work based on the Program" means
either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to
say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or
with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinaf-
ter, translation is included without limitation in the term „modification".)
Each licensee is addressed as „you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not co-
vered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the
Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered
only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (indepen-
dent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true
depends on what the Program does.
