             Preamble:

             The intent of this document is to state the conditions under
             which a Package may be copied, such that the Copyright Holder
             maintains some semblance of artistic control over the
             development of the package, while giving the users of the
             package the right to use and distribute the Package in a
             more-or-less customary fashion, plus the right to make
             reasonable modifications.

             Definitions:

             "Package" refers to the collection of files distributed by the
             Copyright Holder, and derivatives of that collection of files
             created through textual modification.

             "Standard Version" refers to such a Package if it has not been
             modified, or has been modified in accordance with the wishes
             of the Copyright Holder as specified below.

             "Copyright Holder" is whoever is named in the copyright or
             copyrights for the package.

             "You" is you, if you're thinking about copying or distributing
             this Package.

             "Reasonable copying fee" is whatever you can justify on the
             basis of media cost, duplication charges, time of people
             involved, and so on. (You will not be required to justify it to
             the Copyright Holder, but only to the computing community at
             large as a market that must bear the fee.)

             "Freely Available" means that no fee is charged for the item
             itself, though there may be fees involved in handling the item.
             It also means that recipients of the item may redistribute it
             under the same conditions they received it.

             1. You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source
             form of the Standard Version of this Package without
             restriction, provided that you duplicate all of the original
             copyright notices and associated disclaimers.

             2. You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other
             modifications derived from the Public Domain or from the
             Copyright Holder. A Package modified in such a way shall still
             be considered the Standard Version.

             3. You may otherwise modify your copy of this Package in any
             way, provided that you insert a prominent notice in each
             changed file stating how and when you changed that file, and
             provided that you do at least ONE of the following:

             a) place your modifications in the Public Domain or otherwise
             make them Freely Available, such as by posting said
             modifications to Usenet or an equivalent medium, or placing the
             modifications on a major archive site such as uunet.uu.net, or
             by allowing the Copyright Holder to include your modifications
             in the Standard Version of the Package.

             b) use the modified Package only within your corporation or
             organization.

             c) rename any non-standard executables so the names do not
             conflict with standard executables, which must also be
             provided, and provide a separate manual page for each
             non-standard executable that clearly documents how it differs
             from the Standard Version.

             d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright
             Holder.

             4. You may distribute the programs of this Package in object
             code or executable form, provided that you do at least ONE of
             the following:

             a) distribute a Standard Version of the executables and library
             files, together with instructions (in the manual page or
             equivalent) on where to get the Standard Version.

             b) accompany the distribution with the machine-readable source
             of  the Package with your modifications.

             c) give non-standard executables non-standard names, and
             clearly document the differences in manual pages (or
             equivalent), together with instructions on where to get the
             Standard Version.

             d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright
             Holder.

             5. You may charge a reasonable copying fee for any distribution
             of this Package. You may charge any fee you choose for support
             of this Package. You may not charge a fee for this Package
             itself. However, you may distribute this Package in aggregate
             with other (possibly commercial) programs as part of a larger
             (possibly commercial) software distribution provided that you
             do not advertise this Package as a product of your own. You may
             embed this Package's interpreter within an executable of yours
             (by linking); this shall be construed as a mere form of
             aggregation, provided that the complete Standard Version of the
             interpreter is so embedded.

             6. The scripts and library files supplied as input to or
             produced as output from the programs of this Package do not
             automatically fall under the copyright of this Package, but
             belong to whomever generated them, and may be sold
             commercially, and may be aggregated with this Package. If such
             scripts or library files are aggregated with this Package via
             the so-called "undump" or "unexec" methods of producing a
             binary executable image, then distribution of such an image
             shall
             neither be construed as a distribution of this Package nor
             shall it fall under the restrictions of Paragraphs 3 and 4,
             provided that you do not represent such an executable image as
             a Standard Version of this Package.

             7. C subroutines (or comparably compiled subroutines in other
             languages) supplied by you and linked into this Package in
             order to emulate subroutines and variables of the language
             defined by this Package shall not be considered part of this
             Package, but are the equivalent of input as in Paragraph 6,
             provided these subroutines do not change the language in any
             way that would cause it to fail the regression tests for the
             language.

             8. Aggregation of this Package with a commercial distribution
             is always permitted provided that the use of this Package is
             embedded; that is, when no overt attempt is made to make this
             Package's interfaces visible to the end user of the commercial
             distribution. Such use shall not be construed as a distribution
             of this Package.

             9. The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to endorse
             or promote products derived from this software without specific
             prior written permission.

             10. THIS PACKAGE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR
             IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED
             WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
             PURPOSE.

             Version 2, June 1991

             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.

             Preamble

             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.

             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.

             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.

             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.

             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.

             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.

             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.

             The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
             modification follow.

                     GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
             TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

             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".

             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.

             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 modifications or work under the terms
             of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these
             conditions:

             a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
             stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

             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.

             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.)

             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.

             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.

             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.

             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:

             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,

             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,

             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.)

             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.

             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.

             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 this License. However, parties 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 accept this License, since you have
             not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to
             modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These
             actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this
             License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the 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, distributing or modifying the Program
             or works based on it.

             6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on
             the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license
             from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the
             Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not
             impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of
             the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for
             enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.

             7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of
             patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to
             patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court
             order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions
             of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of
             this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy
             simultaneously your obligations under this License and any
             other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not
             distribute 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 it and this
             License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the
             Program.

             If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable
             under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section
             is intended to apply and the section as a 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
             of protecting 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 is up to the
             author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute
             software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose
             that choice.

             This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is
             believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

             8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted
             in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted
             interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the
             Program under this License may add an explicit geographical
             distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that
             distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
             excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the
             limitation as if written in the body of this License.

             9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
             versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such
             new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
             but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

             Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
             Program specifies a version number of this License which
             applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of
             following the terms and conditions either of that version or of
             any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If
             the Program does not specify a version number of this License,
             you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
             Foundation.

             10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other
             free programs whose distribution conditions are different,
             write to the author to ask for permission. For software which
             is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the
             Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for
             this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of
             preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free
             software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software
             generally.

             NO WARRANTY

             11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
             WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
             LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
             HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
             PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
             EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
             IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
             PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
             PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM
             PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY
             SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

             12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO
             IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO
             MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE,
             BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,
             INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR
             INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS
             OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED
             BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE
             WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY
             HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

                 Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New 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 achieve
             this is to make it free software which everyone can
             redistribute and change under these terms.

             To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is
             safest to attach 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" line and a pointer to
             where the full notice is found.

             <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what
             it does.>

             the License, or (at your option) any later version.

             This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
             but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
             MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
             GNU General Public License for more details.

             You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public
             License along with this program; if not, write to the Free
             Software Foundation, Inc., 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139,
             USA.

             Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and
             paper mail.

             If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice
             like this when it starts in an interactive mode:

             Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19yy name of author
             Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type
             `show w'. This is free software, and you are welcome to
             redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show c' for
             details.

             The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the
             appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the
             commands you use may be called something other than `show w'
             and `show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu
             items--whatever suits your program.

             You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer)
             or your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for
             the program, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

             Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the
             program `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written
             by James Hacker.

             This General Public License does not permit incorporating your
             program into proprietary programs. If your program is a
             subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit
             linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is
             what you want to do, use the GNU Library General Public License
             instead of this License.
