        + "Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, "
        + "MA 02139, USA. Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this "
        + "license document, but changing it is not allowed.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "Preamble\n"
        + "The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and "
        + "change it. By contrast, the 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 other 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.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, 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 change the software or use "
        + "pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things."
        + "\n"
        + "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 restrictions translate to "
        + "certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you "
        + "modify it.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "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.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you "
        + "this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the "
        + "software.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "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 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.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software 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 free use or not licensed at "
        + "all.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE\n"
        + "TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION\n"
        + "\n"
        + "0. This License applies to any program 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 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. "
        + "(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "
        + "\"modification\".) Each licensee is addressed as \"you\".\n"
        + "\n"
        + "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 output 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.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies 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 to the absence of any warranty; and "
        + "give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the "
        + "Program.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your "
        + "option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "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 of these "
        + "conditions:\n"
        + "\n"
        + "a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you "
        + "changed the files and the date of any change.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part "
        + "contains or is 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.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must "
        + "cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to "
        + "print or display an announcement 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 the 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 announcement.)\n"
        + "\n"
        + "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, do 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 permissions "
        + "for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part "
        + "regardless of who wrote it.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "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 exercise the right to control "
        + "the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "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 storage or distribution "
        + "medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "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 provided that "
        + "you also do one of the following:\n"
        + "\n"
        + "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 interchange; or,\n"
        + "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 physically performing source "
        + "distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be "
        + "distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for "
        + "software interchange; or,\n"
        + "c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute "
        + "corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed 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.)\n"
        + "\n"
        + "The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making "
        + "modifications to 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 special 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 component itself accompanies the executable.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "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 the source code, even though third parties are "
        + "not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.\n"
        + "\n"
        + "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 "
