-           How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs\n\
-\n\
-  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest\n\
-possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it\n\
-free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.\n\
-\n\
-  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest\n\
-to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively\n\
-convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least\n\
-the \"copyright\" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.\n\
-\n\
-    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>\n\
-    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>\n\

-    (at your option) any later version.\n\

-    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,\n\

-    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.\n\
-    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it\n\
-    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.\n\
-\n\
-The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate\n\
-parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may\n\
-be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be\n\
-mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.\n\

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