Terms & conditions for copying, distribution, & modication
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
modications and/or translated into another language.
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation
in the term “modication”.) Each licensee is addressed as
“you”.
Activities other than copying, distribution and
modification arenot 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.
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.
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.
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 modications or
work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that
you also meet all of these conditions:
