even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

2. The origin of this software must not be misrepresented, either by explicit claim or by omission. In

practice, this means that if you use PCRE in software that you distribute to others, commercially or

otherwise, you must put a sentence like this:

Regular expression support is provided by the PCRE library package, which is open source software, written

by Philip Hazel, and copyright by the University of Cambridge, England.

somewhere reasonably visible in your documentation and in any relevant files or online help data or

similar. A reference to the ftp site for the source, that is, to:

ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/

should also be given in the documentation. However, this condition is not intended to apply to whole

chains of software. If package A includes

PCRE, it must acknowledge it, but if package B is software that includes

package A, the condition is not imposed on package B (unless it uses

PCRE independently).

3. Altered versions must be plainly marked as such, and must not be misrepresented as being the original

software.

4. If PCRE is embedded in any software that is released under the GNU General Purpose License (GPL), or

Lesser General Purpose License (LGPL), then the terms of that license shall supersede any condition above

with which it is incompatible.

The documentation for PCRE, supplied in the "doc" directory, is distributed under the same terms as the

software itself.
