==========================================
Independent JPEG Group’s free JPEG software
The authors make NO WARRANTY or representation,
either express or implied, with respect to this
software, its quality, accuracy, merchantability, or
fitness for a particular purpose. This software is
provided “AS IS”, and you, its user, assume the entire
risk as to its quality and accuracy.
This software is copyright (C) 1991-1998, Thomas
G. Lane.
All Rights Reserved except as specified below.
Permission is hereby granted to use, copy, modify,
and distribute this software (or portions thereof) for
any purpose, without fee, subject to these conditions:
(1) If any part of the source code for this software
is distributed, then this README file must be
included, with this copyright and no-warranty notice
unaltered; and any additions, deletions, or changes
to the original files must be clearly indicated in
accompanying documentation.
(2) If only executable code is distributed, then
the accompanying documentation must state that
“this software is based in part on the work of the
Independent JPEG Group”.
(3) Permission for use of this software is granted
only if the user accepts full responsibility for any
undesirable consequences; the authors accept NO
LIABILITY for damages of any kind.
These conditions apply to any software derived
from or based on the IJG code, not just to the
unmodified library. If you use our work, you ought to
acknowledge us.
Permission is NOT granted for the use of any IJG
author’s name or company name in advertising or
publicity relating to this software or products derived
from it. This software may be referred to only as “the
Independent JPEG Group’s software”.
We specifically permit and encourage the use of
this software as the basis of commercial products,
provided that all warranty or liability claims are
assumed by the product vendor.
ansi2knr.c is included in this distribution by
permission of L. Peter Deutsch, sole proprietor of its
copyright holder, Aladdin Enterprises of Menlo Park,
CA. ansi2knr.c is NOT covered by the above copyright
and conditions, but instead by the usual distribution
terms of the Free Software Foundation; principally,
that you must include source code if you redistribute
it. (See the file ansi2knr.c for full details.) However,
since ansi2knr.c is not needed as part of any program
generated from the IJG code, this does not limit you
more than the foregoing paragraphs do.
The Unix configuration script “configure” was
produced with GNU Autoconf. It is copyright by the
Free Software Foundation but is freely distributable.
The same holds for its supporting scripts (config.
guess, config.sub, ltconfig, ltmain.sh). Another
support script, install-sh, is copyright by M.I.T. but is
also freely distributable.
It appears that the arithmetic coding option of the
JPEG spec is covered by patents owned by IBM,
AT&T, and Mitsubishi. Hence arithmetic coding
cannot legally be used without obtaining one or more
licenses. For this reason, support for arithmetic
coding has been removed from the free JPEG
software. (Since arithmetic coding provides only a
