   the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source 
   code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source 
   along with the object code. 

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as
   expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, 
   modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will 
   automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties 
   who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not
   have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full 
   compliance. 

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed 
   it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute 
   the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law 
   if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or 
   distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you 
   indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and
   conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works 
   based on it. 

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the 
   Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the 
   original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to 
   these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions 
   on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not 
   responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License. 

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent 
   infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), 
   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 distribute 
   so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and 
   any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not 
   distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would 
   not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who 
   receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you 
   could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from 
   distribution of the Program. 

   If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
   particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply
   and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. 

   It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any 
   patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any 
   such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the 
   integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented 
   by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions
   to the wide range of software distributed through that system in 
   reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the 
   author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software 
   through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice. 

   This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be 
   a consequence of the rest of this License. 

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain 
   countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original 
   copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an 
   explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, 
   so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus 
   excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if 
   written in the body of this License. 

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of 
   the 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 a version number of this License which applies to it and "any 
   later version", you have the option of following the terms and 
   conditions either of that version or of any later version published by 
   the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version 
   number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the 
   Free Software Foundation. 

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs
    whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask 
    for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software 
    Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make 
    exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of 
    preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and 
    of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. 

   NO WARRANTY

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, 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. 

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING 
    WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR 
    REDISTRIBUTE 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.

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 convey 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 an idea of what it does.
Copyright (C) yyyy  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 2 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, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 59 
Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307, USA.

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. 

If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when 
it starts in an interactive mode: 

Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author Gnomovision 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, the commands you use may be 
called something other than 'show w' and 'show c'; they could even be 
mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program. 

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your 
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if 
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: 

Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program 
'Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

This 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 Library General Public 
License instead of this License.
