License.
c) If the modified program normalJrreadseommands
interaetivelywhen 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 notin'and a notin,that there is
no warrantr {or else, saringthat rou prol'idea warranty)
and that users may redistribute the program under these
conditions, and telling the user how to view a copr of this
Lieense.{Excq)(ion, if the Program itself is interactive
but does not normally print suchan announcement, your
work based on the Program is not required to print an
announcement.)
1hese requirements apply to the modified work as a
whok. Ifidentifiabk 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
rou distribute them as separate works, But wh.'n you
distribute the sam.' 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 regardlcssofwho wrote il.
'Ihus,it is not the intent of this section to claim rights
OTcontest rour rights to work written entircly by you;
rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the
distribution of derivative or collective works based on the
Program.
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 \'olume of a storage or distribution
medium docs not bring the other work under the scope of
this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (ora work
based on il. undcrSection 1) in object code or executablc
form under the terms of Sections I and 1 above provided
that rou also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding
machine·readabk source code, which IllUSt be distributed
under the terms of Sections I and 1 above on amooium
customarily used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least
three years, to gil'e 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 I and 1 above on a medium customarily
used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information ),ou received as to
th,' oJfer to distribute corresponding source code. ("Ihis
alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution
and only if yoo received the program in object code
or executable form with such an otTer, in accord with
Subscctionbabove.l
The source code (or a work means the preferred form of
the work for making modifications to i1. Foran executable
work,complete source code means all the source
code for all modules ilcontains, plus any associ31ed
interface definition files, plus the scriptl
u~ed
to control
compilation and installation of the executable. However,
as a special exception, th., source cod,' 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
If distribution of executable or object code is made by
offering access to copy from a designated place, then
olfningequivalent access to copy the suurce code from
the same place counts as distribution of the source code,
even though third parties are notcompdled to copy the
SOurce along with the object code
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the
Program e~cepl as expressly provided under this License
Any attempl otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or
distribute the Program isvoid,andwillautomatically

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 acceptlhis Ucense, since you
have not signed it. 1I0w(ver, nuthing dse grants you
permission to modify or distribUie the Program or its
derivative ,,'orks. 'Ihese actions are prohibited by la\\' if
you do not accept this License, Therefore, by modifying
or distributing Ihe 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,

6, Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work
based on the Programl,the recipient automatically
recei\"esa license from the original licensor to copy,
distribute or modify the Program subject to the_~e
terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
restrictions on the recipicnts' excrcise of the rights granted
herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance
by third parties to this License.
7. If,asa consequence of a court judgment or allegation
of patent infringemenlor for any other reason (not
limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed Otl you
{whether bycourtorder,agreem,'nt or otherwise} that
contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the condition, of this License. If you
cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your
obligatiotls under this License and any other pertinent
obligations, then as a consequence you may notdistribUie
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 itandthis
License would be to rcfrain entirdyfrom distribution of
the Program
If any portion of this section isheldim'aJidor
unenforceable under any parlicular circumstance, the
balance of the section is intended to apply and the section
asa 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 ofprotecling 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 isupto the author/donor to decide ifhe
or she is willing to distribute software through any other
system and a licenseecannOl impose that choicc.

How to Apply Th.s. T.rms to Your N.w
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
achieVl.' this isto makc it frec software which everyone can
redistribute and chang., under these terms.
To do so, attach the follOWing notices to the program. It
is safest toatta<;h 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~Jineanda
pointer to where the full notice is (ound.
<one line to give the program's name and an idea of what
it does.>
