          + "Preamble\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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."
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE\n"
          + "TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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\".\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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:\n"
          + "\n"
          + "a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you "
          + "changed the files and the date of any change.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.)\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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:\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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,\n"
          + "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,\n"
          + "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.)\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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."
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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."
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence "
          + "of the rest of this License.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "NO WARRANTY\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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\" "

          + "CORRECTION.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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 "

          + "The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and "
          + "change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your "
          + "freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all "
          + "its users.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially designated "
          + "software packages--typically libraries--of the Free Software Foundation and other "
          + "authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you first think "
          + "carefully about whether this license or the ordinary General Public License is the "
          + "better strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, 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 and "
          + "use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do these "
          + "things.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors to deny "
          + "you these rights or to ask you to surrender these rights. These restrictions translate "
          + "to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the library or if you "
          + "modify it.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a fee, you "
          + "must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must make sure that "
          + "they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other code with the "
          + "library, you must provide complete object files to the recipients, so that they can "
          + "relink them with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling it. "
          + "And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library, and (2) "
          + "we offer you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or "
          + "modify the library.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no warranty "
          + "for the free library. Also, if the library is modified by someone else and passed on, "
          + "the recipients should know that what they have is not the original version, so that "
          + "the original author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be "
          + "introduced by others.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free program. "
          + "We wish to make sure that a company cannot effectively restrict the users of a free "
          + "program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist "
          + "that any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be consistent with "
          + "the full freedom of use specified in this license.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU General "
          + "Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public License, applies to "
          + "certain designated libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary General Public "
          + "License. We use this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those "
          + "libraries into non-free programs.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a shared library, "
          + "the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined work, a derivative of the "
          + "original library. The ordinary General Public License therefore permits such linking "
          + "only if the entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General Public "
          + "License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with the library.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "We call this license the \"Lesser\" General Public License because it does Less to "
          + "protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General Public License. It also provides "
          + "other free software developers Less of an advantage over competing non-free programs. "
          + "These disadvantages are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many "
          + "libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain special "
          + "circumstances.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage the widest "
          + "possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve "
          + "this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is "
          + "that a free library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, "
          + "there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free software only, so we use "
          + "the Lesser General Public License.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs enables a "
          + "greater number of people to use a large body of free software. For example, permission "
          + "to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many more people to use the "
          + "whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the users' freedom, "
          + "it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked with the Library has the "
          + "freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a modified version of the "
          + "Library.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow. "
          + "Pay close attention to the difference between a \"work based on the library\" and a "
          + "\"work that uses the library\". The former contains code derived from the library, "
          + "whereas the latter must be combined with the library in order to run.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION\n"
          + "\n"
          + "0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which "
          + "contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized party saying it "
          + "may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also called "
          + "\"this License\"). Each licensee is addressed as \"you\"."
          + "\n"
          + "A \"library\" means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to "
          + "be conveniently linked with application programs (which use some of those functions "
          + "and data) to form executables.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "The \"Library\", below, refers to any such software library or work which has been "
          + "distributed under these terms. A \"work based on the Library\" means either the "
          + "Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing "
          + "the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or "
          + "translated straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is "
          + "included without limitation in the term \"modification\".)\n"
          + "\n"
          + "\"Source code\" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making "
          + "modifications to it. For a library, 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 library.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this "
          + "License; they are outside its scope. The act of running a program using the Library is "
          + "not restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its contents "
          + "constitute a work based on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a "
          + "tool for writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does and what "
          + "the program that uses the Library does."
          + "\n"
          + "1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's complete 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 distribute a copy of this License along with the Library.\n"

          + "option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus "
          + "forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such modifications or "
          + "work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these "
          + "conditions:\n"
          + "\n"
          + "*    a) The modified work must itself be a software library.\n"
          + "*    b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating that you "
          + "changed the files and the date of any change.\n"
          + "*    c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third "
          + "parties under the terms of this License.\n"
          + "*    d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table of data "
          + "to be supplied by an application program that uses the facility, other than as an "
          + "argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort "
          + "to ensure that, in the event an application does not supply such function or table, "
          + "the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose remains "
          + "meaningful.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a purpose that is "
          + "entirely well-defined independent of the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d "
          + "requires that any application-supplied function or table used by this function must be "
          + "optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root function must still "
          + "compute square roots.)\n"
          + "\n"
          + "These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of "
          + "that work are not derived from the Library, 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 Library, "
          + "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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "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 Library.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the "
          + "Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a storage or distribution "
          + "medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead "
          + "of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must alter all the "
          + "notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General "
          + "Public License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version than "
          + "version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can "
          + "specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in these "
          + "notices.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so the "
          + "ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all subsequent copies and derivative "
          + "works made from that copy.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library into a "
          + "program that is not a library.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under "
          + "Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above "
          + "provided that you 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.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "If distribution of 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 "
          + "satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code, even though third parties are "
          + "not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is "
          + "designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, is called a "
          + "\"work that uses the Library\". Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of "
          + "the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this License.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "However, linking a \"work that uses the Library\" with the Library creates an "
          + "executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it contains portions of the "
          + "Library), rather than a \"work that uses the library\". The executable is therefore "
          + "covered by this License. Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "When a \"work that uses the Library\" uses material from a header file that is part of "
          + "the Library, the object code for the work may be a derivative work of the Library even "
          + "though the source code is not. Whether this is true is especially significant if the "
          + "work can be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The "
          + "threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts and "
          + "accessors, and small macros and small inline functions (ten lines or less in length), "
          + "then the use of the object file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a "
          + "derivative work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the Library "
          + "will still fall under Section 6.)\n"
          + "\n"
          + "Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the object "
          + "code for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any executables containing that work "
          + "also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with the Library "
          + "itself.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a \"work that "
          + "uses the Library\" with the Library to produce a work containing portions of the "
          + "Library, and distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided that the terms "
          + "permit modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse engineering for "
          + "debugging such modifications.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in "
          + "it and that the Library and its use are covered by this License. You must supply a "
          + "copy of this License. If the work during execution displays copyright notices, you "
          + "must include the copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference "
          + "directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one of these "
          + "things:\n"

          + "code for the Library including whatever changes were used in the work (which must be "
          + "distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked "
          + "with the Library, with the complete machine-readable \"work that uses the Library\", "
          + "as object code and/or source code, so that the user can modify the Library and then "
          + "relink to produce a modified executable containing the modified Library. (It is "
          + "understood that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the Library "
          + "will not necessarily be able to recompile the application to use the modified "
          + "definitions.)\n"
          + "*    b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A "
          + "suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the library already "
          + "present on the user's computer system, rather than copying library functions into the "
          + "executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if "
          + "the user installs one, as long as the modified version is interface-compatible with "
          + "the version that the work was made with.\n"
          + "*    c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to "
          + "give the same user the materials specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no "
          + "more than the cost of performing this distribution.\n"
          + "*    d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a "
          + "designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above specified materials from "

          + "you have already sent this user a copy.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "For an executable, the required form of the \"work that uses the Library\" must "
          + "include any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the executable from it. "
          + "However, as a special exception, the materials to be distributed need not include "
          + "anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major "

          + "executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other "
          + "proprietary libraries that do not normally accompany the operating system. Such a "
          + "contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library together in an executable "
          + "that you distribute.\n"
          + "\n"
          + "7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side "
          + "in a single library together with other library facilities not covered by this "
